Can someone point me in the right direction? - re Dept of Labor rules


Posted: Jun 25, 2010

Where can I find the law that states the employer is supposed to compensate for things directly impacting the duties of the job for piecemeal workers.  I'm searching, but can't find it.

thanks

S/l Sum Direction On X-ray
Feb 23, 2011

"X-ray looked good in the lateral plane and the s/l sum direction is actually better."  Not sure what "sum" direction is. The terms "sum" and "direction" are so wide it's hard to find anything specific to radiology with google. Anyone know? ...


Looking For Direction...
Sep 06, 2011

I am in need of a career change and am currently exploring coding. I've gone through a few websites, like AAPC, and some of the archives here, but I'm still confused and have a bunch of questions! Please help where you can. What really is the difference between the CPC and CCS? I understand that the CCS is more beneficial, but I don't quite understand the mechanics of either. Is office coding more like a billing/clerical position? Do I have to have a 2-year HIM degree too? Does t ...

If it's really true that the QC team is being let go in some of the regions, I have a feeling the TSMs will be next, and that at some given point there will be employees, and Auditors.  That's it. An old TSM that I worked with for many many years just got promoted to working with the clients in person, and the team QC got promoted to Auditor.  We might be getting a glimpse of the "new face" of MModal for the coming year.  My TSM told me once, that long before a major l ...


Need Direction
Mar 17, 2015

After reading through this board I am totally confused about coding and what certification(s) I need. I am an MT, have been for the last 14 years. I never got certified, just landed a good job after I graduated college (with a nursing focus, so lots of anatomy, etc.)...I have been considering either Career Step or Andrews only because those are the main ones that come up when searching. But, what I need to know is what are these other certifications?? What courses/certifications do I actually ne ...


Superior Global Is Moving In A Different Direction
Jan 15, 2014

Wow, just got a call that Superior Global is moving in a different direction and no longer needs my services.  That's why I have to get out of this business and hard at work at this.  Looks like he was calling a list down the line because this man that called me called me by a different name at first.  Asked what was going on, and he said also "I am not at liberty to say."  ...


What Is The Point Of Asking You What
Feb 04, 2010

specialty you really don't like if that is all they are going to give you? Now, before anyone flames away, I was hired by the Q several months ago as a tier 3.  I pull my weight, work my shift, and don't have too much to complain about except for NJA from time to time. When I was hired, they asked me specifically what specialties I like the most and what I like the least.  I was told that if there was a specialty that I really disliked or didn't have as much experience ...

of us looking at DocQManage to see what the backlog is?  Several times I have looked and still I don't get the work.  One day last week, almost 200 jobs on my primary account (not sure if it still is) and then an hour later, nothing! Of asking us to switch our hours?  I don't see how that is going to help if there is no work at many different times during the day. Of a CP saying we need to contact CTL to get a list of abbreviations allowed for a cetain account?  W ...

I haven't been gigged yet for it, but when ASR is totally off the wall and I fix a ton of mistakes, I save the report when I am done and use F11..ASR, has been ok? in the past. Recently it is off the wall wrong, what is going on? Why can't they train this thing, how many years has it been now, at least 15 right? If the client only knew ...

Fluency "upgrade" is.  They spent how much money paying the techs to work on it & then paying all of us to train so that the spellcheck can now be inconveniently located on the left rather than floating and it now takes twice as long to upload a report because we basically have to go through 2 upload cycles...?  Yet we still don't have the fuzzy physician search fixed or the question marks by the physician names in the ADT, or control-arrow moving to the end of the word instea ...

Well I Have Proven My Point
May 15, 2011

I worked 4.5 hours yesterday and did over 1400 lines!  Typed 95 reports.  If I apply myself I can make good money.  I just need to stop doing other things when I should be working....I should be doing between 1500 and 2000 lines a day the way I look at it.  Far above the 1200 a day minimum.  Hmmm, well guess I better get to work (LOL)....Lord help me!  ...


Where The Finger Should Point
Jul 20, 2011

So much ire and angst pointed at MTSOs.  I even read where the TAT is a marketing ploy :)   It helps to remember that we're all in the same boat and for the same reasons, to support ourselves. What so many of you don't seem to get is that the INSURANCE industry is dictating much of the TAT.  If reports aren't on a chart in xxx time then the facility/physician is dinged financially. If an MTSO doesn't meet TAT, they are dinged financially.  So they a ...

What Is The Point Of Responding To Any Of These Ads?
Jan 25, 2013

With 30 years of experience over many platforms (16 of which are from home), what is the point of applying to any of these companies? They are few and far between.  They certainly do not want to pay anyone what they are worth (since they can just outsource on the cheap)... Most of the time you don't get a response from any of them anyway, not here and not on MTDaily either. ...


0.5 Point Taken Off For Blanks SM
Apr 11, 2013

I just looked at my review for March and I see all these 0.5 deductions for "blank filled in by reviewer."  There are also Valid Blanks that take off no points.   Sorry if this has been asked but did they say they were going to do this?  And if so, when?  Also, I listened to these blanks.  There is no way they can tell me 100% what was said in any of them, which is why I blanked them.  So they are guessing.  Two reports I have gone through so far are for real ...

ASR Good Point
Jun 22, 2014

Many times, I've had absolutely no idea what the dictator said, yet ASR picked it up, and I felt so grateful and relieved that I had that to go by.  Upon seeing it in print, I could hear it and confirm that ASR got it correctly.   Otherwise, I would have likely had to leave blanks in those spots.  It does help at times.  ...


So What Is The Point Of All These Emails Anyway
Dec 10, 2014

Backlog is such and such, and I care about this why? I have a schedule to work, if there is no work, I sign off because there is no work. If the backlog is low, I can't say screw it and go back to bed, I work until there is no work. And the Smart Summary, I have no idea what the purpose of that is, anyone? Quality and blanks reports,hum, no idea there either. Talk about waste of money and justifying your existence, not to mention wasting my time. ...
