I am so anxious to hear the winners of - the drawing
Posted: Sep 13, 2010
Will they be posted on MQ Central or will winners just be notified by e-mail?
Anyone know how this works?
They should give us all gift cards - NJA Queen

Just for the hassle of using the new program. A lot of people weren't even able to upload it on time and some even went back to the old version. Support is backed up on phone calls. Then the new program is running a lot slower and we are losing money. Yeah, they owe us all a gift card.
oh no... that is how they will get around - awarding prizes

Do you think that they will not award any prizes now because too many people were not able to download, so they did not get entered, so it was unfair??
Please, do not be true....
I remember MQ was supposed winners for something - and took them 2 weeks. NO MESSAGE TO OPEN
Hi all.. it's been a while.
I stopped transcribing when I realized the 4 cpl I was getting for voice recognition wasn't going to pay for daycare and I had to quit. Since then I've started my own photography business, but as I'm building it up (and I refuse to go into debt to get it up and running), I need something to support it. So, I return to my first love: medical transcription.
I just applied for a job at a local VA hospital that pays very well. I can ...
Past or present. I'm curious if any of them visit this site at all and curious on what this AHDI thing is. Is it run by MModal? I live in Florida and was actually thinking about going this year and was wondering if it was worth it and maybe MModal will have any discounts on getting in. ...
I can pick out at least 3 in that list that I know for sure just guessed. I've QA'd their work and it's horrible. Way to promote accuracy MM! You know what would get those blanks down? Educating dicators, fixing sound quality, keeping MTs in their primaries. Nevermind, that won't work; it's the MTs that need to improve, obviously. MM is run by complete boneheads. ...
My MTSO is going under and I have been sending out resumes like crazy. Either there is no reply or I get the "We decided to go with another candidate," spiel. The reason I said all you lottery winners is not because I am condescending. I mean it. It's like winning the lottery to find work anymore.
I wish you luck in your new jobs. ...
Haven't heard a word about this since they were asking people to apply in Dec. Supposedly 12 were hired for nights and weekend shifts. Wonder if they found 12 willing to chance another new created MQ position. ...
I would like to know what you see as the pros and cons of your job, esp if you work for one of the larger nationals and, if possible, maybe some idea of what pay range in addition to being an MT one might expect to be offered (or fair), ie, x-amount more per line or hour... thank you v. much for any input. ...
Company wants me to sign HIPAA Business Associate Agreement and send to them along with my resume prior to testing. Has anyone else had to do this? ...
Ours barely, barely, barely ever sends out an e-mail anymore and our QC only sends out about 1 e-mail a week. Answer phone calls? Forget about it. Just wondered if this is SOP. ...
SHRILL, GIGGLING, LOUD NURSES AND/OR SUPPORT STAFF in the background.
I'd like to reach thru the phone and b/slap all of them!!!!!
I don't see how patients ever get any rest/recuperation!!! ...
I know where you are coming from. I posted on here a couple of weeks ago that my husband passed away and I did not even get a "kiss my foot" from this company. No card, no email...no anything AND my post was jerked off here in a heartbeat. My CCM knew about it and another friend that works there as well. I am so disappointed in this company... ...
I recently took a job as an IC, thinking it would be great to make my own schedule. HOWEVER, I have to work when the work is there. There is no making my own schedule. The work flow dictates when I work. There is no work on Monday or Tuesday. Maybe a few reports trickle in late Tues, but then more work comes late Wednesday afternoon, then work Thurs, Fri, Sat, and by Sunday no work again.
Account is for clinic docs, no acute care.
Is this the same experience you other ICs are having. I ...
I am an IC. I have read a website that says we as independents get the following. I would love to hear from each one who is in this category and tell me if you as an independent are getting the following:
The site says many companies that hire ICs give full benefits including sick leave, health insurance, sign on bonuses, paid vacations, retirement plans.
Next this site says 6 hours a day is considered a full day for most MTs and lastly it says that we, if compentent enough ...
So I'm still learning the in's and out's of transcribing, hoping that once I finish this course and get my certification and start working it will get easier. Do the doctors ever get the mush out of their mouth???? Anyways, one of my assignments i swear he is saying "
Patient was status post for kebel basal strokal which has left him with gate unsteadiness." the part in the bold/underlined part. I thought I was doing so good, I have reread this report about 5 ...
Coumadin 30 mg per day.
Now, I want to make sure I'm not dreaming here, but that is completely incorrect, right?
Maybe I'm having a brain lapse (been an MT for 20 years) but I want to make sure my thinking is correct that this dosage would probably be lethal?
I'm going to leave a blank for the dosage, but I just wanted to double check with my MT friends. I have listened to it many times, and she is positively saying "30 mg per day."
TIA!! ...
Hello everyone,
I am about to complete my MT training with an online school and I am finding that many people seem very unhappy with their positions, the companies they work for, their pay, etc. I am curious to know just how feasible it is to expect to find a job, be happy with it, and actually make a decent paycheck.
Is there anyone out there who is happy with their current job and is willing to tell me about it? I have been doing lots and lots of research online and have been hard-pressed to ...
This person has a foreign body in the foot. Does this sentence make sense?
There appeared to be a foreign body distally that was visible and could hear audibly with the forceps.
Can it be heard audibly as the forceps hits the foreign body? Thanks for any help.
