Wow, lots of work 2 weeks in a row, betcha

OK - I'm a straight typing transcriptionist who wants to explore VR - seems most people hate it - I'd like to try it and see. My company doesn't offer it. Are there any companies what have editing on Bayscribe currently? What is the best VR platform to work on and which is the worst? (Don't know the difference in any of them) Have heard of Speechmagic for Bayscribe (but who has it?) eScription and Exeditor at Transtech (? where else) and how's that? and ...

O.K. I have checked out the 3 schools that were recommended. Two of them require 45 wpm I am not that fast yet. How important is this? Approximately how much money can you earn in an 8 hr day doing office notes? When a company test you are they looking for a 45 wpm or better to hire you? Thank you grannieof1 ...

A job dribbles in here, a couple hours later a job dribbles in there. [Sigh!] A person can only file their nails for just so long ------ !! ...

I have noticed Accentus has been hiring pretty consistently, it seems, since maybe November. Anyone know what's up? MTs jumping ship or new accounts on the way? Just wondering, since they were bought out a year or so ago. I have been thinking of applying with them for a while but don't want to walk into the middle of a messy transition. Thanks in advance! ...

Really enjoy transcribing Ops, but Ops have dribbled to few and far between and mostly brief reports on my accounts. Whatever happened to all the detailed op notes I used to get. Bored to tears with H&P, DS, and consults. TIA. ...

All of sudden there's lots of work. Seems to be no end to it. It just keeps flowing and flowing. I hope it stays this way. I wonder what happened. ...

I spend enormous amounts of time doing clervical work for free at the beginning of a report..looking up doctor names that are not on the lists we have been given, figuring out which is the date of admit, consult, etc. If everything was programmed in and we just had to download a report and transcribe, we would be making a lot more and if the speech recognition would stop putting words down that the doctors are not saying so that we do not have to clean it all up we would have more time to ...

I have been on this report for 2 days now. I have managed to figure most of it out but I am really lost on one paragraph. After she dictates all the information under Physical Examination she goes into another paragraph describing more of the patient's symptoms. Is there supposed to be heading before that paragraph? Also, below is a few sentences from that paragraph that I just cant make out. Any help would be great. Thanks again. Tone is normal no clog whealing. Degenerative reflexes ar ...

1. Under procedure, doctor dictates BMP collagen was used. It is ok to abbreviate BMP or does it need to be expanded? 2. She was transferred to the prone position ______ (s/l an aquired) frame? 3. We carefully exposed the subcutaneous tissue and we _______ (s/l sub crossed) the dissection off the level _______ (s/l synchreala) and the transfer processes of the L5, we exposed the spine. I know this is probably a mess. =( I am new at transcribing and really new at Op reports.&n ...

I have an interview with Transcend on Monday and have read conflicting stories on this board about whether or not Transcend MTs run out of work. Some you are saying you never run out; some say they hardly ever run out, and some say running out of work is a problem for them. What's the story on this? Also, how is the health insurance? Thanks for any info you have! ...

very rare that I get 100 straight typing lines a day, let alone 400 anybody else? ...

She uses lots of tampons and this is definitely a "claudiolise ssue" ?? ...

as they ramp up for summer. Having people off means we have to work harder and more OT because we've just been having such an easy time of it. Warnings and threatenings. All they know. Turn around times not being met? It's because we're so lazy. Hiring all the time? Still not enough staff; never enough staff. Cheery picking; never addressed. Rotten VR; never addressed. Never knowing what work, which doctors, or work types your're going to be doing anymore; never addressed. Co ...

I am glad to see that some kind of movement is finally happing regarding a decent minimum wage. But something else I'd like to say is that I read somewhere (not here, but on the Huffington Post or somewhere) that Chelsea Clinton said she "does not care about money." Then the article went on to say that she and her husband Mark just bought an apartment in New York City around Gramercy Park for 10.5 MILLION DOLLARS. Nice to not have to be able to care about money. We'd just l ...

Never use to see that many ads for them now they have one every single week. Are they that busy? Lots of new accounts or what? ...

Have you noticed more doctors are chewing and slurping while dictating lately? It just dawned on me today, probably some non-MT employees are treating the doctors to Christmas candy at their dictation stations. I used to see that a lot when I worked in hospitals. Ugh! ...

Don't want to bite off more than I can chew ...

Just figured my pay on lines for the last 2 weeks. Really depressing. I figured it twice because I thought it just couldn't be right. New Year sure isn't starting off well. ...

Please clarify .... is it weeks or weeks' ?? The patient is a 21-year-old G2, P1-0-0-1 at 37 plus 1 weeks' gestation who presents ........ ...

I got switched to a new acct a little over a month ago and have been out of work on a daily basis for about 3 weeks. Yesterday an email was sent that we would know this morning what the status is and still no word. ARG!!! Anyone else in the west know what is going on? ...

I just turned in my resignation. Crazy to change jobs right before the holidays but I've done it before. Cannot wait to start new job at smaller company for, yes, a little less pay but no corporate bigwigs and no offshores. I feel free! ...

Hello fellow MT's, I saw that another MT posed this question and I thought it was a great idea to get a heads up before I do this. I plan on giving MM my 2 weeks very very very soon and I was wondering if anyone who has given 2 weeks at MM could tell me what happened immediately after they gave their notice? How they were treated, how PTO you have banked was handled, etc. Anything will be helpful. You can private e-mail me if you would like. Thank you in advance, it is very much appreciated ...

How long does it take? ...

This job is not worth the trouble. It certainly does nothing for me when I open the "paycheck" every 2 weeks and see that despite my 40 "power hours" every week, I made less than last time. No matter what, I cannot manage to make a decent living here any more. I am over it. Sad to admit, and yes, the shame is on me, but I do wish for NJA or even better, to be FIRED from this place. Just had to get this off my chest before I burst into flames of fury at the horrid qu ...

What if I don't give a 2 week notice? Is it really gonna hurt me? I doubt they give detailed information about what kind of employee you were. Maybe just dates. I have been with this company since the mid 90s and I hate to just up and leave like that, but I don't know if I can take it another day. Every week its something new. My pay is down to almost nothing. With the type of reports I get, there is no way I'm making 5% and living with my ...

Dictator also says EPO therapy 40000 units every 2 weeks. ...

Why do these "schools" continue to advertise? There is NO WAY someone can learn what we do in 8 weeks. I am amazed at advertisements such as these!!! ...

I have heard not one word. No calls, no e-mails, nothing. I am a CMT with over 25 years of experience, experience in every specialty, huge hospitals, etc. Am I too experienced and do they think I would want too much money? Why wouldn't they at least ask? I used to get a phone call immediately upon sending a resume. Nowadays, nothing. I'm amazed that these companies are not looking for good help. ...

Wow, lots of work 2 weeks in a row, betcha - L&L

So sorry they suspended the coder program and moved them back to typing? - just saying
