Medical Transcription liability insurance

Any ICs out there that have been told they have to carry "liability insurance" that also covers HIPPA breaches? I feel this job is costing me more money than I can make anymore. Plus, they tell me when I can and can't take off, when I have to work, etc. and even call me on weekends when TAT is running out and I'm off. Of course when I do take off, I don't get paid and am told I have to make the time up. What the heck? Anway, back on subject, anybody have the insurance an ...

The corp. I contract with is replacing Dictaphone and transcription with Powerscribe and editing.

Hi. I received an email from my account telling me ICs are now BA (business associate) per HIPAA. Honestly, I do not know anything about this. They provided some links for me to read on.

In my eagerness to get out of MT (and home based work in general), I've sent my resume to 4 different staffing agencies. I have an interview at a local Aflac office tomorrow, they seemed impressed by my medical knowledge and clerical skills. The interview occurs during my normal MT schedule, so I lied to my TSM, telling her I had a dental appointment. The thing is, I've got other offers from other insurance companies. I have NO sales experience, and there is NOTHING on my resume to ind ...

So after more than a month of research for the new HIPAA-HITECH Final Rule, I was able to pass everything to the company I work for as an IC.

He did menti ...
