want to clear this up for myself - Erin Pryor

Could somebody clear up for me what the difference between clinic and acute care are? Is clinic referring to offices?
clinic versus acute care - tootsie
[ In Reply To ..]
clinic is doctors' offices, private practices, internists with mostly consultations, SOAP notes, progress notes, letters, etc.
Acute care is all hospital dictations with many, many, dictating doctors, nurses, PAs, many different departments, many different types of dictations, operative notes, surgery, emergency room, etc.
I get tired of reading that hospitals only want CCS credentials. That completely depends on the hospital. What should be said is INPATIENT coding is CCS and OUTPATIENT is CPC.
A local government hospital here only wants CPC. A huge, huge, well-known hospital in my area takes both CPC and CCS because they do so much of BOTH.
Someone coming here for information on becoming a coder should find out where they want to work and what type of coding credential tha ...
I have been tempted to switch to Clear Wireless after seeing how fast it works on my daughter's computer. Does anyone have any experience using it for IC work with trascription? ...
Dear MM TSM, TSA, PC, manager, work flow lead, whoever you are.... STOP SENDING ME SOMEONE ELSES ACCOUNT. My own is backed up, I WILL NOT DO SOMEONE ELSES ACCOUNT WHEN MY OWN IS BACKED UP. You are freaking irritating the hell out of me and I don't work Saturdays to do someone elses account ESPECIALLY if my account is back up. STOP SENDING ME ACCOUNTS THAT I DO NOT KNOW, THAT I WILL MAKE MISTAKES ON AND THAT WILL CAUSE MY LINE COUNT TO DROP TO NOTHING. UGH!!! I wish t ...
If you want information on Clear Choice Transcription out of Pittsburgh please search the archives for Davis Transcription. **** had been kicked out of her own company and started a new one, Clear Choice Transcription. Don't be fooled by this con artist and her side kick,****.
Davis Transcription is now run by a reputable business owner and the name changed to tMedica.
**** No names, please. Email names if you wish. **** ...
Does anyone know anything about these two companies (work atmosphere, size of company, pay on time, etc., any helpful information)? I noticed that Clear Choice has openings for editors, but I'm wondering if they're QA editor or VR editor positions. From the pay rate advertised, I'm thinking VR editors. Thanks in advance for any information anyone can provide. ...
To anyone even thinking of signing with Amphion - steer clear !! This company totally sucks. Most all accounts are now VR and the platforms being used, and there are several, SUCK. You better know all platforms though because if you think you can take time off when your primary account runs out of work, you are wrong, and they do run out of work constantly because of consistently overhiring. Then they stick you on another account whether you've worked on it before or ...

They are a significant part of the problem.
Along with upper levels they possess no ethics and apparently also lack cartilaginous tissue in the C-T-L spines to stand up and say they have ethics and will not go along with the unethical/illegal BS upper level suggests/dictates to them.
They have a choice and choose wrong. They could stand together in numbers and say NO.
You think upper level is going to find enough people to replace ...
I have recently seen several ads posted for Clear Choice Transcription. I see that now they are seeking new grads for these positions. I personally always like to know if there are red flags, etc. before I accept an offer. I felt the need to share my experience with the company. There is one manager who basically runs the show. Myself and a friend were both completely bullied by her for doing nothing short of trying to learn our job. If questions are asked, there are very abrasive an ...
Has anyone every had problems with this company? I have recently and am just wondering if this is how they do business? I have been an MT for 30+ years and have not encountered this before. ...
How is Clear Choice's pay when being paid by the audio minute and working in the EMR system? How much can be expected to be made daily on something like this working only 4 hours? ...
Seems like i have the worst time trying to get some headset that will give me the kind of audio I need in order to hear better. The last I bought were Bose and still not good enough. What and where to find some really good ones? Thanks. ...
If you want to be paid for any work you do I would not advise working for this company. I have not been paid for "phase I" of the transcribing we were supposed to do which was supposed to be paid last week, evidently there are others according to the main board. This company hired for an account that was supposed to be started but evidently has not, they are feeding the MTs 10 reports at a time so you get a total of 30 reports in each phase as they call it for a stipend of 200, however, they ...
Has anyone ever heard of Clear Choice Transcription out of Pennsylvania and if they send their work off shore or are owned by an off shore company? ...
I was reading through the archives, and someone said that they were affiated with Davis Transcription, which was a scam company.
Is this true, or is Clear Choice okay to work for? Do they pay on time?
Sorry to ask again, but I'd like to know before I make the wrong decision. ...
Is there anyone currently working for Clear Choice Transcription? If so, what is it like now - good or bad? Just wondering as I have read all of the old posts, but nothing newer is showing up and they have advertised with more work available. ...
I had the very pleasant experience of getting a crystal-clear American doctor speaking perfect English, but he was spelling many ordinary words and medications, which tells me he's probably been having some bad reports coming back. He didn't sound like a newbie resident, who do tend to spell a lot of things. It makes me wonder just how bad some of the reports are if this very clear-speaking doctor is having a problem. ...
Help! It sounds like chest is clear bilaterally......??? deformity. Heart: Regular rate and rhythm, etc.
Any input with a standard phrase for an emergency department consultation that says the above? Thanks so much for any help. ...
I was hired over a month ago. It took three weeks to get all the info needed to start. I was to do online training over the phone, which I did. Unfortunately the person who trained us went so fast I was lost. I started, had a ton of questions, which I asked. I never got any answers other than one where I was told to follow instructions. Yes I knew to do that. So I get an email saying I am having a hard time (ya think it could be because the trainer did n ...
Is anyone familiar with Clear Choice? Any information would be appreciated. I understand they pay by the minute of dictation, a dollar a minute after release from QA. I'm wondering if their platform allows for a good line count and how the company treats the employees. ...
One thing wasn't clear - will Transcend employees years of service be grandfathered into the PTO plan or will we start as year 1 with Nuanc?. I did see where Transcend employees would be grandfathered into the QA plan with everyone starting at 99%. ...
Am interested in Clear Choice. Would like to hear pros and cons of working for them. Also, because they pay per minute of dictation, how does it compare with cpl rate. Is it a fair way to pay. Lots of ESLs????? Thanks for your time. ...
Does anyone have any information about this company, i.e., how they are to work for, enough work, lots of ESL dictators? They also pay per minute of dictation and I would like to know if you can make enough money this way to make a living. Thanks for any help you could give me. ...
I CANNOT SAY THIS ENOUGH.DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY CLEAR CHOICE TRANSCRIPTION! I have been with them over a month now and have yet to make any money. Their supervisor, is the rudest person I have ever come in contact with. When you complain about the lack of training and the rudeness of the supervisors, she makes excuses! To me this company will scam you! The system is rediculous to work on so even though it says you make .80 per audio minute, it takes you 30 minutes just to get one 1:09 ...
Clear Choice Transcription is clearly a joke. The only reputable person at the company is the recruiter. Once you're handed off to the trainer you're screwed. Training there could be taught by a 1st grader. They rush through training and expect you to catch on in 15 minutes. Most of my questions, even after hired were answered by the recruiter. Don't know who the owner is but they obviously have no idea what happens after you're passed off to the trainer. Maybe once the ...
