I am looking to transcribe at home but need to start with basics such as phone line, equipment, etc. Has anyone ever set up a 1-line dictator setup. Where do I start? What do I need? Doctor has no idea. He has Dragon and does not like it so wants me to transcribe at home? HELP!! ...
Hi everyone! I hope someone can shed some light on who hires recent graduates for home-based MT work. I've been applying to every company I can find but most want in-house experience or 1 year+. Not having a car limits my in-house work. That's why I went into this field. I've been looking for 2 weeks and have gotten few replies (all "thanks but no thanks"). I've completed Medical Terminology course with a 94% and Medical Transcription cours ...
Thinking about doing med coding as IC from home. Can any help me understand what system I need to connect with the physicians pc? I know physician gives me pass word and I sign Business Agreement, but one company says the program also has to be installed into the physicians pc and that doesn't seem right. Any help out there? ...
If a QA has the initials HBE (home-based employee?), does anyone know if they are offshore? If they are US, why don't they have US in front of their number? These people seem to be the nastiest of the bunch and the most nit-picking. I just failed a post-audit because I missed out the word "the" where it made absolutely no difference to the meaning. They also seem to make the most errors as I got a few critical errors reversed recently and it was the QAs with the initials HBE who were ...
Got an e-mail with job openings. That's a first. They need a CCM, any takers? I was interested to see they supervise 50-70 MTs. I thought it was a lot more than that. I thought the reason my CCM seldom sends out e-mails or answers e-mails or the phone, for that matter, was because she had about 300 MTs to supervise. Seriously, we get more e-mail from Vern than from her. Just a random thought while passing through... ...
Argh, one side of my headphones isn't working. This patient is 10 days status post I&D and wound vac application on her leg. The doctor says: she still has a lysengial opening approximately 1 cm by 5 mm in size. ...

Does this mean their take on VR has changed and now they are looking into it for their software. ...
I pursued this same position a few months ago but ultimately declined it due to the hours. I keep seeing it reappear every couple of months since then.
Does or has anyone worked on that account and is there a reason they keep recruiting for it? It was a tough decision not to take it as I love genetics and find it fascinating, but every time I see it pop up I'm thinking maybe I dodged an enormous bullet by not taking it (lack of work, horrific dictators, etc).
I thought perhaps ...
were out of work, their UE benefits had run out, and they were "too young to retire, but too old for rehire?" That story was an eye-opening and scary. ...
....because it says steady stream of work, amoung other un-truths...as I sit on this site reading and posting because I am OOW again and my shift just started.....Oh, and this is the shift NUANCE changed my schedule to saying that it would make sure I would not run out of work....but can only respond to their post via email....I guess they would not want my response.... ...
I am looking for North Carolina based MTSOs. I know about Fast Chart and Archivus. Just curious as to any more. Trying to make decision about whether to stay in this business or change and would like to work for a company based in my own state. I am so tired of being 3 hours or more behind where I work and having to wait for answers, help etc from the MTSOs that are across the county or out of the country! ...
I'm really discouraged with the company I currently work for....so much of the work is being sent to India...Are there any good companies left where you can work, make a decent living, and not sit around your whole shift waiting for work to come trickling in? If you know of any good companies that are currently hiring....please let me know!! ...
The pdf electronic version of BOS-2 was so handy and easy to use. Wonder what made them decide to do away with that & make it to where you have to open a browser, find the link, sign in, find the BOS page, etc., for the 3rd edition. It's so much more time-consuming, not to mention the search feature doesn't work nearly as well as the BOS-2 pdf version. For the first time ever, I can't wait for the 4th edition because surely nobody likes this & they will g ...
A former manager of mine from "brand X MTSO" (in reality, a very dear friend now) got thrown under the bus. She knows how "QBay" does. She is considering an MT or QA job for Focus Infomatics. Focus claims to not offshore, and has offered my friend 8 cpl. That sounds terribly lame wage wise for all that experience.
When I couldn't drink the MQ Kool-Aid anymore, I was making a whopping 9 cpl. Of course, try doing the math on that formula come payday.

What exactly is someone referring to when they say "web-based transcription platform"? Are they referring to the program that the company uses to receive/pull/send audio files? ...
