This is America where people are important - not COWS! So stop telling me I have "inactive"

This one's got me stumped. It sounds likes "cows" protocol. Below is the sentence in its entirety. She was also put on a "cows" protocol to protect her from opiate withdrawal. ...

The brachytherapy catheter position was verified at 47 cm into the biliary drainage tube measured at the " stop cot". ?? ...

As an MT, it just aggravates me to no end to see the same mistakes transcribed over and over by transcription service MTs, or left unedited by VR MTs, and to have no way to inform that MT about the error. Some MTSOs, you know, aren't responsive. It isn't as if they provide a complaint hotline. Decided not to post this in the word help forum, since I am not asking for help with a word. Kind of the opposite. I wouldn't think this MT would be asking for help, ...

8 cpl is what I started at 6 or 7 years ago, I'm still seeing this number and of course much lower. How are companies getting away with this nonsense of not paying for spaces, paying 5 cpl, etc. In my opinion 8 cpl + typing for large teaching hospitals with 18 pages of specifications = really low pay. The one way I can think to put an end to these companies and their crappy pay, besides no one taking these jobs, is to stop letting them advertise on MT stars and other MT boards unless they ...

She said it twice and definitely did not say X-flap. ...

I sincerely doubt that the company big shots are reading the postings here, plus the anonymity wouldn't make your thank you mean much. I would think it more appropriate to send a handwritten thank you note, which is what I used to do when I worked for TransTech. I'm glad your comany sends you gifts. In this day and age, most of us are just lucky to have a job. Still, it kinda rubs it in to those of us who work for Scrooge companies who treat us like piece worker ...

Right now I'm working inhouse doing MT and I have a part time working from home. I would like to eventually work from home full-time but someone mentioned to me that because I'm single, I shouldn't do it. I am aware of the need to have balance of doing MT and interacting with people. I live alone and I have no pets. I have plans in mind if I work full-time at home, for ex. volunteer, take a college class, take an exercise class. I would app ...

Quote from your post: " MT's are among some of the most nasty, miserable... People I've ever come across." I'm a little late to the party, but here's my 2 cents for the OP: You appear to be the kind of person who pulls 1 green M&M out of a bag and then assumes all M&Ms in that bag must be green. There are nearly 100,000 MTs in the US, but only about 400 visit this board. Do you see where I'm going with this, or do I have to ...

This "mandatory" OT is just the type of thing to tip a lot of employees to the breaking point, resulting in some quitting. This will just cause a cycle and get worse. I wish businesses were like pirate ships, where if the workers were fed up enough and were to collectively agree, they could mutiny and overthrow the captain, putting one of their own in charge who they believe would do better. I don't believe there are many of us who could do any worse than MM's curre ...

My doc is saying, "The difficulty is that he has had apparently "vitrogedous or bitrogedous" therapy from the dermatology people. He is referring to the nose ala. I think he is cutting something off the beginning, but not sure. Any help is really appreciated. Thanks so much! ...

Does everyone realize that we are given inactive time if the moronic dictator decides to call in and wait 300 seconds before actually dictating a report if they dictate anything at all? I just did a 400 second transcription job and I spent the first 300 seconds listening to the news in the background while he talked about the news. I finally type the report and get out of it and see that I was "docked" 2.48 seconds for having to listen to NOTHING. I already got in trouble for " ...

Ok, not sure if I'm the only one who had this initial perception of the mentoring program and the BOOST initiative, but it is my impression that during my mentoring session it was kind of IMPLIED that if our inactive time decreased our pay would go up...me thinking my daily pay for SR. Inserted in there ever so sneakily from my mentor is the fact that the inactive time has NO BEARING WHATSOEVER on our daily production pay! A low inactive time only affects PTO, downtime, etc., pay which is ...

Of course I'm over the "target". Hmm.... they us answering the phone, searching the internet and walking away from the work station. One huge cause of inactive time they are conspicuously leaving out is taking the time to read client profiles! - Especially when I am getting many jobs outside of my usual BOB. I'm happy to do a good job - follow the CP, make sure I have the right drug and dosage because the doctor can't pronounce the drug well enough, find the correct name of a s ...

haven't had to google anything tonight and have 7 mins in 4 hours?!?!?!?! ...

When figuring your lines per hour, is that for the whole time you are clocked in or is inactive time deducted? ...

They are tracking every key movement while you're in docqscribe and sending it as incentive to help you produce more..Well you got me with a week where my internet was messed up bad,,,so all I can do is go up from here...No warning, they are just watching...I dont like being watched...Applied for a transcription job in a docs office, if the money is right, Im outta here... ...

they dont mention in the ad no pay increased and never making a living wage. ...

Please don't listen to those telling you that MT is in demand. Those are either schools. or recruiters who work for MTSOs. I suppose we could twist this to mean that MTs are still needed, but what they don't tell you is that the pay is horrendous these days. That being said, if one still chooses to do it, go in with your eyes WIDE OPEN and remember these posts...... ...

In FIESA I was corrected for, but didn't lose points for, leaving out the word "of" after the word "off," as I learned in transcription school that it is not correct to say "off of," you just need to say "off." Should I tell my TSM to mention this to the QA person or does no one care since I didn't lose any points? I have also seen blanks in reports that this QA person added to my reports for words that I know I typed correctly because I am very familiar with my accounts and have ...

this is a very dangerous thing to do for patient care? ...

Yesterday when I logged in to type in Emdat I could get a report started and then Emdat just shut down. I logged back in and it closed itself again without me telling it to. I was working fine Friday at the end of my shift. I don't understand what is going on with it this week. I can't call the Emdat help because I do not have long distance on my home phone. I emailed them but they didn't know how to help me. This is very frustrating. I CA ...

how many times I clicked the mouse while doing ASR last week and how many minutes I was idle in a document. Gee, could it be that I was looking up a word or checking on a previously dictated document in order to complete the document I was working on in order to produce a good report with no holes? If I want to click my mouse I'll click my mouse! Oh yes, the good news is the e-mail said that I could attend an online class so I can learn how to be more productive and use the "hot ...

obligations to them --WHAT ABOUT THEIR OBLIGATIONS TO US?!! I still see that "plenty of work TODAY" ad and it makes my blood boil. I have an email formulated regarding this subject with plans to send to my PM and possibly copy it to the VP of operations, although I am not sure it will do any good. At this point, though, it seems there is nothing left to lose. They need to address this issue and explain why they have no work for the current employees yet continue to ...

And how I need to do more, more, more. You're welcome MedQ (not) ...

and can't log in until I log off elsewhere???? Anybody else?? ...

I just love to get dictators (not all ESL either) who can't put a proper English sentence together telling me where to use commas, semi-colons, etc. 85% of the time they're incorrect and I want to drive to the hospital and shout at them to TAKE AN ENGLISH CLASS ! ...

I have been at home working full time for about a year. I have been an MT longer, but I always had kept a job outside of the home also because I like interaction with other. I have found that I am starting to lose my people skills. Do others have this same problem? It is like I have forgotten how to really be able to hold a conversation with others. This is something that really bothers me as I have always loved customer service and working with people and main ...
