The Transcription Doctor

Hi everyone! Can anyone tell me about The transcription doctors company? Do they pay on time? Do they do direct deposit? Thanks ...

Really looking forward to getting my foot in the door and would appreciate info. ...

Is it impossible to find a position as a transcriptionist in a doctor's office. I have had no luck at all since I have been a transcriptionist. I have been a transcriptionist for 23 years and nothing from a doctor's office ever. ...

Does anybody know of a good software program or system where the doctor can dictate into a digital recorder from his office, upload it to my computer and that I could transcribe using a footpedal (that I already have) and then upload it and send it back to the doctor? The doctor would like to start using a digital system ASAP, so any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! ...

20 years ago when the DRG's hit the hospitals, one was complaing to the other... "they treat doctors like a bunch of old dogs now". Well, that's how MTs are being treated now. Why on God's green earth do the MT services require all MT's to work at least one weekend day every week (Friday's and Monday's don't count). Every ad I see on the Job Seeker board requires weekends. Are they sadistic or something. Why do we put u ...

The patient presents today for followup on her right first MTP. should it be... metatarsophalangeal and the word joint after it or can it just be metarsophalangeal? tia. ...

react if we went in their offices and talked so fast that they couldn't understand what we said, if we ate during our visit, or yawned and continued talking? I'm just going to wager a guess that they wouldn't appreciate it very much. Sometimes, I think it would be fun to try just to see their reactions. There are some that I transcribe that if I ever got the chance to do that I would. Have an ESL right now that's talking way too fast. Do they not ...

Rambles on, makes no sense throughout the dictation at all, does not make complete sentences, dictates on a patient in the WRONG chart constantly, follows no format, which is required by YOU, cuts himself off but yet when you can understand him, he has a "bright" moment and makes sense is an absolute joy to transcribe???? Oh, and did I mention that he only dictates every third day even though he sees patients on a daily basis???? Mini-vent over, back to the confusion ... TIA ...

It sounds like he says Plantar response is flexor bilaterally in his physical exam portion but he says it so fast I'm not sure I have it right. ...

to dictate, as long as you are already in your car & eating a box of Cracker Jack. ...

I mean, seriously. What are they teaching these ESL docs now?? <--me, rolling eyes ...

Document 1836 long. Doctor walked away from phone at 153 and I had to listen to a bunch of garbage. thank you so much for being an incosiderate boob. ...

Apologies from a physician who is stumbling over his words while valiantly making an effort to dictate clearly. Wish we had more docs like this. ...

while you take a long personal call. After all, I'm just a computer. ...

doesn't actually pause the recording. And saying "Unpause" doesn't make it start again. This isn't even the same doctor that calls me "computer." "Computer go back to the HPI and..." Beam me up!! ...

I got in trouble today because I put a wrong patient. The doctor dictated a billing number, name, and MRN. The MRN was had a different patient, but the billing number and the patient name matched the ADT screen. Not to mention the fact that he kept using "she" in the dictation and the MRN number matched a "he". So logically one would just think he had the wrong MRN and I didn't want another QA submission so I sent it through with the correct billing number, name, and ...

I need the address for Dr. Jill Rue, family doc in Kentucky or southern indiana. thx ...

No. 2 of his impression is: Acute pancreatitis with probable cysts. Rule out pseudocyesis or superimposed candidiasis. The fullness of the cul-de-sac may be secondary to ascites (s/l lofadet) gynecology problem. HELP!!!!!!!! ...

Psychiatric Consultation under Review of past medical records... There's a list of 8 paragraphs that begin with "Doctor diagnosed... " and then a list of conditions that the patient had/has follows each. Would Doctor-diagnosed be hypenated in this case? Thanks! ...

Can anyone tell me what the policy is for taking time off for a medical appointment. I have worked here for over 5 years but never done it. I am a regular part timer who just switched over from flexible part time so I have no PTO accrued to use for the hours I need off and really just want to take it w/o pay. Just curious what others on this forum have done... ...

I mean really! "Her creatinine is somewhat deranged at 2.1..........." ...

I am a former Spheris MT, now begrudgingly a MQ MT (not that Spheris was all that great either). As was pointed out below, we are still on Spheris rules for the most part but I don't expect that to last forever. At Spheris, if we think a doctor has made a mistake, we are encouraged to flag it but that entails putting in a blank, just as if we didn't understand the dictator. If we have too many blanks in a given period, we lose our incentive pay. They do not diff ...

I was just offered a job with "The Doctor's Helper" Has anyone worked with this company? I was burned by DIT Transcription and don't want the same thing to happen again. Is this a safe, reputable company? ...

Do you feel compelled to talk back out loud? I have a new doctor that talks to me, and if he says thank you, I find myself saying "you're welcome" out loud! He also asks questions, as in, "did I remember the vitals" and I say "no you didn't". My dog kind of looks at me funny, like, are you talking to me? ...

"dermaclens" or "dermaclenz" ???? I can find a Derma-Clens when I google but it is used by vets. Any suggestions? TIA. ...

If you have your own account, is it necessary to have the doctor(s) sign a contract before you start with them? Thanks ...

Okay, we've got this new French doctor at one of my hosptials. When I transcribe his dictation, in my head, I'm transcribing dictation form Gelles Marini from Brothers and Sisters and Dancing with the Stars. He's hard to understand, but I'm in love with him. LOL. It's a nice break from the other ESL doctors from the Middle East. I respect that they are learning English and I am sympathetic, but they cost me so much money because with some of them, I earn about $4 an ...

I have a doctor that still uses tapes and refuses to go digital or call-in. The problem is there is interference on the tapes and I can barely hear him. They think it is my transcriber, which it could be, but I don't think it would be worth the investment to buy a new transcriber for tapes when hardly any doctors even use them anymore! I need some opinions from my fellow MTs on this subject! I risk losing the entire account of 3 doctors (2 are digital) if I don' ...

"void" - its gonna be a long night... ...

The AMA site, you have to type in certain code words before you get in...the UC Health site, you can't just type in a name or part of name, you have to scroll through a long list. Anyone got a way to find doctors in Florida that is simple without having to navigate through typing in codes for site access ...etc. ...
