I have a question. Do the TCMs still have their book of business or when we run out of work on our "old" section, are we automatically switched to another section? I work night shift and I see lots of unassigned work but never seem to get any of those. Just wondering. TIA

they still have - BOB

It all depends on your pooling. You'll get your regular work first, and when that runs out, you may or may not get anything else depending on how they have you set up. There are helper pools, you might get South or West or North helper pool, and I'm not sure but I think there are criteria that make those pools turn off and on (so many jobs, so many late jobs, so many people working, etc.)

Out Of Work, SA5, West Region.
Jan 08, 2010

Well, I am out of work.  A LOT of MT's have been getting on in the evenings and cleaning out my primary and secondary.  NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE until recently.  Hmmm.  Makes me now want to start popping on and work in the mornings.  After all, I wanted to work days (not evenings) to begin with, but was forced to work evenings or look for another job.  I really need to go back to school and do something else!!!  Looks like this company started changing a lot ...

Nothing in our BOB, trying to help others, but work is low too.  I just found out something too!!!  I had a primary account for years and the account felt like family to me.  Knew all the doctors.  Yes, I was blessed to have this account.  Then about a year ago, I was told this account was being done by their own doctors. (Cannot remember the exact name it is called).   A lot of Providence Cinics and hospitals use it.  When  you go in for a clinic visit, a ...


No Word When The West Will Go On Lockdown? I Am NOT

looking forward to that at all.  If they could ensure there would be enough work during your ENTIRE shift I would have NO problem with it.  But what are we supposed to do when we get NJA.  Right now, my CCM just says to keep checking back throughout the day, which I do, and then I can almost always get my hours in that way.  Can anyone already on lockdown, FT, getting NJA shed some light on how they make up the time and if it is even possible?  ...

West Nile Virus Treatment? (sm)
Feb 16, 2011

The patient is in a s/l *total shell* with a headrest secondary to West Nile virus, some neuromotor dysfunction, but no acute changes. This is mentioned in the HEENT exam on a discharge, not the reason the pt was admitted so have nothing else to go by and no other notes mention anything. He is just mumbling his way through this whole thing (new PA) and I cannot quite get what he is meaning, the "t" sound and "shell" are the only clear sounding parts, and googling with West Nile virus and h ...


Power Outage Out West - No Pay For Down Time !

CCM notes the Western power outage yesterday (approximately 5 hours) is not covered by paid down time.  However, East Coast outage later in the day was a system problem and would be covered by down time.  HUH ?  So for power outages we either make up time or use PTO.  Can this possibly be legal ?????? ...
