Changing to Canada hospital from US hospital transcription

Does anyone know of any hospitals in the U.S. currently hiring experienced MTs? I am in need of a good job with benefits that I can do from home. Please e-mail me with your response. Thanks in advance. ...

What does it mean to be paid by the hour, receive an incentive bonus and be able to work from home after attaining 100% productivity? I'm sorry...I've been under a rock for a little while now. How does one attain 100% productivity? And thanks for not laughing at the old woman. ...

I just need some advice on a job possibility. Up until last year, I had worked as an at-home MT (ortho/PT, dabbled in other specialities when needed) for 6 years. I then quit that job as things were going downhill for the company and I needed something better. I found an office job P/T that paid well and was possibly going into a F/T position. Well, due to budget issues the job not only is not going F/T, but I am also lucky to still have my job at this point. So I started looking for work. I ...

Hi all! Quick question, which one do you think you can type more lines a day on, using your short cuts, drop ins, templates, etc., clinic transcription or hospital and why? I have been typing acute care hospital transcription for 7 years and am thinking of taking a clinic job, but the money is slightly less. I figure it won't count that much if clinic is as fast as my physical therapy job was I had 8 years ago. Thanks! ...

Is there anybody here who worked for a hospital in the transcrption department only to have their jobs yanked out from under t hem and sent to a National such as Nuance? I know somebody who works for a local hospital and it looks like they secretly are in the process of making this move....some very strange secretive things going on that makes me wonder...... What was the process for your hospital if this happened to you????? I'm wondering if my suspicions are spot-on. &nb ...

This is part of a hospital course. Not sure what the heading in bold should be so I gave the whole grouping for context. RESPIRATORY: No issues. CARDIAC: No issues. IV: No issues. HEMATOLOGY/ONCOLOGY: No issues. METABOLIC/GASTROINTESTINAL: Ultrasound on admission was the only ultrasound obtained. SEN: Patient was on D5 half-normal saline plus 20 mEq of KCl at 78 mL/hr throughout hospital admission. On hospit ...

Just curious if anyone has a remote (long-distance) position with a hospital. If so, did you have to work inhouse initially before being able to go home or not? My last employer (the current one MTSO I work for stinks so bad I don't even consider them an employer!) was a hospital that was part of a chain. Of 50 MTs, there was one in Canada, one in Mexico, and one in China. However, I'm fairy certain that they were Americans who lived locally and then subsequently mov ...

Why can they not get this hospital to fix this? The only place I notice it is the OR dictations, so that narrows it down doesn't it? And today, is the worst I have heard it in a while.. ...

Consequently, we will educate ourselves on this particular disease as well as obtain medical records from the Children's Hospital. ...

Okay, so halfway out of curiosity, I applied to my local hospital, which is a large regional hospital, for an MT job. They wanted a "seasoned" MT with CMT, who transcribes 250 lines an hour. Okay, I thought, they might actually compensate better than I think since they have well-defined high standards. WRONG! They are offering $11.35 AN HOUR! What a slap in the face! You get a whole extra dollar if you work 2nd shift. What an insult--they just have ...

My local hospital is advertising for this position but doesn't say what the duties are. Just says you need medical terminology experience. ...

Hi everyone! I have been doing MT from home for about 20 years now. I have been offered a position at a local hospital doing MT on a per diem basis. Can anyone give me an idea of what kind of pay to expect? Thank you. ...

Thanks to everyone who responded and I did call on this job but it was an evening job 3-11 so even though it was 18 bucks an hour that does not work for me have children at home...so back to looking into the MTSO companies and finding the best one out there - if anyone has suggestions let me know ...

Was laid off in April. Have a couple offers from transcription companies, and one from a clinic which is part of a huge school/hospital system in our area, (which actually is through a temp agency). There are only 2 full-time NP's and a handlful of part-time NP's. The hospital job is a 45-minute drive, 1-way, in light traffic. Pay to start is $13, but if this temp goes to permanent, potential is much greater. The clinic is open M-F, 8-4, closed holidays.&n ...

Started getting these clinic notes from a hospital definitely not in my region and dictators are not giving out any correct information as to attending or medical record #'s. what to do when the subjective info on vital signs cannot even be understood at all. I PRIDE myself on quality work, and have been here at Q for 18 years. I already took pay cuts, and don't know what to do as QA sup and CCM are not answering, nor is MQMail updated at all. I am sure they are ...

Have been informed that the hospital where I work inhouse is switching to voice. Has anyone ever been an employee where this happened? Is there usually enough work for everyone or have there been layoffs? ...

When typing the name of a department in a hospital, do you capitalize it? Such as: We consulted Pulmonology. ...

Does anybody out there work at home for a hospital, not a transcription company. How do they handle the running out of work situation - do they expect you to use your PTO or take it without pay. Are they more flexible with scheduling - I was hoping for some place that might say you have to work 8 hours a day anytime between say 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Do they still pay by the line, and less for speech recognition? ...

Anyone out there work for Wellspan in Pennsylvania? ...

Been doing this at home for 15+ years and going for a job interview to work p.r.n. for a local hospital. Not sure of the details as of yet but if anyone out there has any input from their own experience on what exactly being an in-house p.r.n. transcriptionist is all about, please share. Pros, cons, how the scheduling works, etc. Thanks! :) ...

Does anyone know what a hospital sitter gets paid and what qualifications they need? Maybe this would be a good thing to get into as we lose more and more opportunities in the MT field. ...

Does anyone know how it works if you are hired as contingent in a hospital? Do you have to have certain hours you are available? There's a contingent transcription job I'm thinking of applying to just to get my foot in the door at a local hospital, but I work full time elsewhere (still MT), so I wonder if this would work. ...

Patient is in the skilled nursing wing. Doctor dictates that s/l "hospital select has been consulted"- is Hospital Select an organization that needs caps? Hyphens? Does it even exist? Thanks in advance. ...

in the labs, the doctors keep referring to "the CMS" (shows potassium...CO2...ALT...). For the life of me, this old MT cannot figure out what CMS stands for other than the name of a lab, and I don't believe that is it. Any thoughts? ...

Does anyone know who has these accounts now? ...

Opinions please....stay with MTSO (with more and more frustration) or apply to local hospital for transcription? ...

I was wondering how it's going over there, if anyone's still working, if they've got a deal with Nuance, if they've been outsourced yet, who's quit or retired or moved on. Hoping all the MTs are going to be okay after TSHTF come January 2015, when "things are going to be a lot different around here." ...
