Good thing - betty

the only company that still provides all equipment, computer, software etc. A lot of other companies want you to not only buy your own computer but software like Word and your own expander. Sigh...... ...

Is that it has made me not embarrased to talk about "embarrassing" medical stuff. Also, before I became an MT, I wouldn't want to bring up certain things to doctors because I have pretty severe social anxiety and get embarrassed easiliy (haven't I used that word enough times in this post, lol). And while I still have SA, that has completely gone away. MT has helped me see that my body is just a body, and doctors have seen it all before and much, much worse tha ...

May be a good thing that Landmark has ignored my resume. They may not be a good company, I don't know. I have sent a resume with 5 years experience in acute care and clinic, formerly worked at Nuance, have worked on Escription, which is what they want, and they completely ignore both resumes sent. Yet they are still advertising for immediate need for MTs. Doesn't may sense but maybe God's doing me a favor. What's up with that? ...

I would strangle this female doc..I HAVE to have 99.7% accuracy and you have to dictate so freaking fast you cannot even give me the courtesy to complete a word much less a sentence..take your report full of blanks..Im done. I refuse to go into the repository and assume you are saying what is in there. Not gonna happen..And Ill keep sending them through until you figure out how to speak and give me some common courtesy. ...

I just sat down at my computer and there were 3 Trojan Horses on it that my antivirus caught. The source was Escription... ...

At least now the QA % will be known before the week we are working. That way, we can better guess how much money we are capable of making that particular week, instead of working hard for a good line count and then having the rug pulled out from under you on Friday afternoon... Silver lining, anyone? ...

for watching the video. Is this their answer to MOT? Just so stupid. ...

that is wide enough for a wrist rest. This needs to be in my bedroom so cant be too huge. I like the tower off the floor also. Thanks. ...

Rarely do I start discussion on mtstars - however, 2014 was a particularly challenging year for myself - an experienced MT/Editor (15+ years). However, I realize that many other MTs may be in the same position, i.e., having many years devoted to working at the Big MTSOs including â��the M,â�� and â��the Nâ�� and (now to be included) â��the Tâ�� following close behind in total numbers of MT/Editors on staff. (Hint: Sure most of you know the M, the N and the T - and the names have been int ...

Just one more thought. I have never, ever, known anyone who has left Medquist or Spheris and regretted it. They may bounce back and forth just to get by, but in the long run, when they are finally finished, they are finished. For all of those MTs who don't want to start over, please don't take that attitude. I did and it only got worse and when I did change it wasn't that bad at all. Again, could it get any worse? ...

Not that I'm not glad it was an increase rather than a pay cut, but I think for a lot of us this "raise" is going to just even us out for when he start getting docked pay April 1. Funny that this "raise" is starting April 1, isn't it? ...

Now I know I did the right thing in not only leaving the Q but leaving the field altogether. I had another physical last week and my blood pressure was back down to 120/70, and my doctor was very happy when he learned I had quit. They wasted no time in sending me labels to ship the computer back, though. Oh well.. they don't want the monitor, or mouse, or keyboard, so I'm keeping those! ...

In half the report the doc says L5-S1, the other half he says L5 on S1. Is this the same thing? ...

I clicked on each of the highlighted areas in the e-mail, but where do you go to set this up? I must be needing more coffee or something. I just dont get it. Read it 3 times now. ...

If this dictator says, "peeeeeeeeeeeeriod" one more flippin time, I am going to scream as loud as I possibly can and then punch the daylights out of this monitor! ...

Urine welkenton? Not sure of spelling, since I'm not sure it's really a word. They could also be saying welkington. That's what the dictation sounds like and I've listened to it several times on numerous days. Can't find a reference to it anywhere and I've tried many variations. Wondering if it's a really old term or if I'm completely misunderstanding. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! ...

I do believe now that they are starting to target those of us who were making 10/6. In the past, on my old accounts, I was audited no more than once a month. If I failed an occasional audit, they would wait another month to see how I did on that one and since I always passed, no action was taken. There was also no action after I took more than the allowable time off. Then, at the beginning of November, I was moved to another BOB. After being on the account for less ...

I just can't stick it out 2 weeks :( Every job I type just stresses me out more and more. I am to the point that I don't care if I get my 20 hours PTO I have built up. I am emailing back and forth with my TSM right now and it sounds like she is reading off a script! "Take each report as they come and try to do your best to prevent errors" No $%^& lady!! Does she think we don't know that????? ARRRGGH I am so beyond frustrate ...

Just had a doctor dictate "potassium 40 mg," (should have been mEq) and then further down, "Levemir 40 mg" (should have been units). If I had not left blanks for them, that would have been 6 points off. It also compelled me to use my allotment of blanks for that report! But they, of course, do not get penalized for their mistakes. On the other hand, our pay is docked. There is a double standard here that needs to be changed. ...

The sentence is ... The ---- was normal to slightly below average. It sounds like wetzler...i did research but I can't find the correct way to spell it.. ...

The university down the street will be offering an undergraduate degree in Arabic. It is one of only 3 offer in this country. Now THAT ought to be useful. Sometimes, if you already have an undergraduate degree, they let you skip the basics and finish in 2 yrs. I would certainly consider that, especially since there appears to be no end in sight to our troubles with Arab-speaking countries. ...

and right at the LAST MINUTE, ONE job comes in. You type it and then have to sit for another 15 minutes. Rinse, repeat. ...

Are there companies that pay to do QA hourly? If so where are they and who? I do QA now and work 15 hours a day for less than $100 ...

that I have had in a dictation, and I am sure that the dictator (PA-C) is annoyed as well. It's always annoying when she chitty-chats with the "girls in the office" while dictating, but in this dictation, one of the girls is mocking back everything the dictator says and continues to do so, after a little chuckle from dictator each time, to the point where the dictator finally has to tell her that this is important, it is for an attorney and she cannot mess it up. ...

Gross Lines? Net Lines? What exactly does that mean. Should net lines be more? If I really average what they say I do, I should be making 27/hour??? I times the net lines by my rate = 27. Well, that is for SURE not the case. I only wish. And what difference does it make whether we use the mouse or not IF that is the most efficient way? Will their ridiculousness never cease to amaze me? ...

I've heard of 4+/5, and he just used that for strength in the upper extremity, but then he said 4++/5 strength of the lower extremity. Is there such a thing as ++ or do you think he just accidentally said it twice. I'm not finding anything anywhere. Thx. mt ...

What exactly is the difference, if any? Is this a transcription-based platform or a voice-recognition type? Company only states cs.net as platform. ...

just wonderin, cuz this board is the only place i've heard of it. is it in email or MQ central or what? ...

Good thing - betty
