Can anyone suggest a good MTSO with acute care work?

I currently am comfortable working swing shift during the week and selldom run out of work. , but my boss would like to move me to days, including Saturday (and perhaps Sunday), and was wondering if my line counts would be as good. (I currently seldom run out of work due to my time zone and do a fair amount of ops.) I imagine OPs would drop? Increase in ER to make up, or? Run out of work more? End of pay period problems? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ...

As a relative newbie MT, I'm not certain what "acute care" means. Does it mean basically all reports that are from doctors in the hospital setting? That is, would any hospital operative note, hospital progress note, and all discharge summaries be considered "acute care"? I know a clinic note is basically a note by an outpatient doctor, right? And it's basically about more minor medical problems albeit could be chronic rather than "acute." ...

I completed my education with Everett Community College in their Career Step program for MT training in Dec. 2006. I have been working ever since in a rehab/therapy clinic. I am the only one who does the transcription for 7 therapists and it is a rather busy office. I have wanted to find work doing hospital transcription and certainly not from lack of trying to locate work on my part. What frustrates me is that I was told by my instructors that I should be able to find su ...

I see that TransTech just placed an ad for acute care MTs. I was hoping that someone who currently works there or has worked for them in the past could share how your experience was.

Is this still an issue or a thing of the past? Any feedback on this company w ...
