Are there ANY companies that don't require you to - wannie
Posted: Nov 05, 2009
do OP notes. I hate 'em and for 2 days that's about all I've gotten. So, I would love to find a company that does not require OP note transcription. TIA.
New MT world - NorCalMT
[ In Reply To ..]OP reports, DS summaries, H&P, radiology, pathology--transcribe any and all work types and specialties and it will pay off. Close to guaranteed job security. Companies will seek YOU out! ;)
have to agree with that - 7DayMT
[ In Reply To ..]You can get some acute care jobs without ops, but more opportunities if you do can do ops. What's more, they can be good money - lots of repetitive text. Even with VR they can go quicker.
You can do clinic work with no ops, of course. I like to always have at least 1 acute care job because otherwise I would not have enough work on weekends (not that everyone wants this) and would starve during holiday periods (which are slow anyway).
I understand that the opportunities are better if - wannie
[ In Reply To ..]you are willing to do OPs. However, I do not like them, they slow me down. The OP notes I am doing are from a large teaching hospital so rarely do I get the same dictator doing the same kind of operation twice, so chance to make normals. I just would like to find a company where I wouldn't have to do OPS.
I don't know why you don't just talk to your supe...sm - Ole MT
[ In Reply To ..]to find a solution to your problem, maybe mixing WTs in your pool. Doubt you are going to find ANY company these days that doesn't require you to do all WT but good luck with that!
and offer you 3 cpl for VR editing...while they are - running all the way to the bank
[ In Reply To ..]Sad but true.
And this IS CORRECT. Yes, they want those who can do it all because sm - .
[ In Reply To ..]they will have a skilled MT and then pay NOTHING for the skill. You will get the worst dictators because of your experience while other with less skill get have the better reports or narrowed down speciality and narrowed down number of different dictators, accommodate that particular MT. Oh Yes, Oh yes.
Have you thought about clinic work? sm - iheartgarycooper
[ In Reply To ..]I absolutely love OP notes and would do them all the time.
much to do in clinic work - ll
[ In Reply To ..]Not a OP person also. There are a lot of companies in search of a good multispecialty transcriber.
On the job hunt myself and had an offer the first day of hunting. I'm being very particular. I want/need stability in a company, even the smaller ones. I also agree that the more you're willing to learn, the more options you'll have in the future. Keep on digging and always check the boards for ones to stay away from.
OP notes - clinic blues
[ In Reply To ..]I sure wish I could find an account with OP notes. I am so bored doing clinic notes. I guess the grass is always greener.
To OP notes: If you can do those well, you will - always have a job.
[ In Reply To ..]Companies go looking for those who can do OP notes. Don't worry about finding employment.
OP notes - Looking for OP notes
[ In Reply To ..]Please, tell me who is looking. I look here every day, but it seems like it is almost all clinic notes. I have done acute care for 17 years, but got switched to a clinic account due to technical difficulties with the account I was on. I have been stuck there ever since. Believe me, I have my eyes open for acute care/OP notes. If anyone sees anything, PLEASE let me know. I would be very grateful. Thanks!!

Why Would A Co. Require IE 7.0 Instead Of 8.0?
May 12, 2010
I got a call today from HR at Sten-Tel (Springfield) saying that they were getting ready to make me an offer. (Would consider taking it on only in addition to what I'm already doing due to hearing issues about lack of work.) I was, however, told that having Internet Explorer 8.0 was a problem and that I would need to uninstall this version and downgrade to IE 7.0. I've never heard of this before and was wondering why the newer, more current version of IE would be a problem ...

She is still with the MD-IT division (or whatever they call it now), is employee status but is able to work whenever she wants as long as she meets line requirement and doesn't go over 40 hours a week. Is this the way it is across the board for Command Health? I thought I needed an IC job for flexibility, but if I could have that flexibility as an employee that would be great.

Time Outside Production - Isn't It Illegal To Require This?
Feb 13, 2014
New to Nuance, swallowed up when they acquired my employer at the end of 2013. I see they really expect you to spend a lot of time doing things outside your schedule, training, reading manuals, etc. Other than a flat rate for installing and learning software (20 minutes, actually took twice that), they don't offer to pay for all this extra time. Seems excessive. Has anyone tracked this extra time and filed a complaint with DOL about it? Or tried to clock into W ...
