I am so ticked I could bite the heads of nails off

Pt has thinning of the Finger nails and curved inward. Dictator stating family history of s/l "crust." The only thing I can find is "Koilonychia." Is there another name for this that sounds like what dictator is saying. She states this twice in the dictation and sounds the same both times as if she is saying "crust." Thank you in advance for any help. I appreciate it. ...

classes. If there are individual issues with individual MLS, address it with them. Don't send out blanket chastising emails. You are doing nothing more than removing any team moral that may be left. The emails come off as though you've embarked on a new power trip. Let me guess? You too TSM can type from your sick bed without missing a beat. Give me a break already. This is ridiculous. ...

I worked my you-know-what off all week to try to get into a higher tier this week. Was doing great, two reviews both 100%. Then Qwhatever nailed me this morning with a post audit. ONE WORD (that doesn't change the report AT ALL!) is going to cost me $241! I honestly believe they are doing this on purpose - keep us going all week so we will work harder to stay in the higher tiers, then at the last minute snatch it away from us when it's too late to do anything d ...

I am not asking if you are happy. I haven't been happy being an MT for years. I just want to be able to pay my bills, have an income and pay my bills. I'm not making what I made years ago either, but I can pay my bills (not much left over after that's done.) I am stuck with M*Modal for the time being and not of my choice. I have worked for other large nationals that were constantly bad mouthed, and I was able to make a living at them. Does anyon ...

I've only recently discovered this. If doctor dictates the age of TP and it's wrong, but you can look at the demo and fix it, don't. Just blank it. I just had a major error come to my E-mail about this. I had changed the age, probably because the physician stated it wrong. However, when you look up a report in escrption, it doesn't tell the patient's date of birth so you have no way to prove anything. I'm blanking from now on. &nb ...

We all know this, but it seems things are getting worse with regard to ASR. I've been noticing it is substituting right for left and vice versa even though the dictation is crystal clear. Also, it is substiting Mr. for Mrs. or Ms. and vice versa even though the dictation is crystal clear. As someone noted previously, it is still making blatant errors in numbers (ages, lab values, vital signs, etc.). These are only a few out of a zillion examples lately. I'm thinking that ASR is regress ...

Just wanted to give a heads up to everyone out there. I have been working for ANP Transcription out of New York for three months now and will NEVER work for them again. They push, push, push for work to get done but can't seem to send out paychecks on time. I have had to call and email each month. Mysteriously, my very first paycheck didn't make the check run and my second check I was told was mailed out on July 9, but I have yet to receive that one, too. ...

This was such an important message I felt it needed to have it's own post. It kind of got lost below in the thread.

Epic is coming to Yale-NH very soon. They've posted lots of Epic jobs on their website. MTs working this account prepare yourselves to be slaughtered. Epic came to our account and we are now producing less than 100 lines per day. EMR is mandated to be in place in ALL HOSPITALS, DOCTOR'S OFFICES AND CLINICS by 2015. MTs have rounded to corner to the end. ...

If you have one of those accounts where they want all medication allergies capitalized, note that DQS 7.1 DOES NOT pick up all-cap typos/misspells. This would include typos in the physical exam as well if the subheadings are all caps, but the medication one is more critical. Geeeeeeez. Just when you think you're sailing along... ...

I just came across a job on CareerBuilder.com for an on-site pathology transcriptionist at Orion Healthcorp - M-F 8-5 paying $18-$22 an hour!!! I would be applying myself, but I live in PA :-( Almost sounds too good to be true! Just thought I would pass it along to anyone looking in that area. ...

Hi folks, I'm an MME and just want to know that I don't like picking your reports to death. When I have to correct a report, I usually leave comments to help you along. However, we were told that if anything is missing from the ADT screen, or if we see 1 little mistake, we have to review the whole report. If the ADT screen is correct, then, unless you're on 100%, we just correct where the QA marker is. I can't tell you how many times the date of s ...

I just noticed on another board that this company posted an ad and I wanted to give those of you thinking about applying for the company a heads up. I worked for the company for a short period of time. I believe she will hire newbies to MT which is a positive. However, there is "no pooling of the work types." There are accounts that are both straight typing and VR, and since straight pays more, you have more people doing that than the VR work. There are also, what I ...

I did not blame the company I worked for for selling out to Transcend as I figured they were told the same thing we were told, which was that nothing would change and their transcriptionists would be treated fairly. I think when things do change you can't blame your old company for that since they are probably surprised by it all just like you are. ...

First off, a bit of a background -- lost my wonderful, steady job to being "morphed" in February. I have been looking for a job, applied for unemployment and finally got it this past week. However, last week, my roommate asked me to leave. I went to a "national chain motel;" (Super 8) on Tuesday, after calling them Monday and telling them VERY SPECIFICALLY what I needed in terms of "high speed internet." DSL or cable and NO satellelite -- well, get down there ...
