another weird thing - no TLs on either IM program.

I am currently attending Andrews School's coding program and I truly do love it. There are still some things that confuse me a bit and sometimes I have wished there were "training" or lecture videos. By taking this course, I have realized that I am a visual learner and have found that just by having to read everything, sometimes I have to go over it and over it to make sense of it, which then sets me back as far as time and then I have to rush to get all of my assignments comple ...

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

Lately I have been doing a lot of transcription for some docs in some ski areas in Colorado so I am running into some terms I have never heard (not necessarily medical) or have thought how to spell. Today, a pt "tacoed" a rail. Would you type it that way, or taco'd~or another way? ...

This is a pt in her 20s being seen for a sore throat. Hx of asthma, vertigo, migraines. Only medication on her med list s/l "IM". That is it. Goes immediately to allergies from there. Any clue what this could mean? Nothing before or after to indicate an injection so it is not intramuscular. Is IM an abbrievation for a medication of some kind that I am not aware of and can not find? In short-HELP! ...

I had 2 op notes from 08/06, then a discharge summary from 08/08. I was getting all excited, thinking there was backlog and I was going to get work this Monday morning, then poof -- NJA. Strange. Why 3 old jobs and then nothing? Overflow maybe? Guess I could check the backlog, but I really forgot how and always seems pointless. Never anything there. I am typing jobs the second they are dictated, then sit and wait for the next one. Sure that wo ...

this is so weird. I went into DocQmanage to get status for my BOB and come to find out, there's hardly anybody working. The hospitals I work on have at best only 1-2 people on them and they are so far behind!! Did everyone quit or something? ...

There is definitely something weird with work flow this week. Here it is Thursday and the entire west coast region has almost no work at all. The account that I work on that ALWAYS has work has *2* little reports as I type this. Just going down the list, I'm amazed - the ENTIRE west coast only has 400 reports. Really? What's going on this week? ...

Has any body every noticed how you find companies that seem interested in you and want to hire you, but if you ask them to look up stuff it takes them forever?I had this one company who was interested in me but when I told them I use a mac computer, which I realize now was my mistake, I get the attitude "See you later"? ...

Hi all, I have kind of a weird question. Does anyone else have trouble finding a new job other than MT? I am looking at clerical type work again as I cannot stand being an MT anymore, working from home, NJA, not enough money to support myself, etc. Anyway, I have been applying to any and all jobs FT or PT that are not gas stations or bartending. I've applied everywhere practically within 40 miles from my home in any type of job out there and yet either hear nothing at all, which really ir ...

I just sent a document to my Hewlett Packard printer and set it for 3 copies. The first copy was fine. The second and third copies looked like a new language. On further inspection, it was obvious that each letter of the alphabet and number was offset by one. In other words, a became b, b became c, 1 became 2, etc. When I sent a request to print just one more copy at a time, it printed just fine. This is undoubtedly the strangest thing that I've ever had ...

The latest job for Hem/Onc by One-on-One something or other's ad is verbatim the SmartDoc ad. Seems really weird to me. ...

Just looked at my e-mail inbox. There is an e-mail stating the following: From: MyFax Subject: Fax #3050126 I did NOT open it. Did anyone else get this? Figuring it is not a good one but rather something to blow out/up my computer. ...

I have some .wav files I need to load into Express Scribe for a potential placement with a company for school. They will not play in windows media player, or Express Scribe. In ES it says "Opening audio file failed." After this I even downloaded other .wav files for school and they work and play just fine. I am totally at a loss as to why these particular files won't play. Another student said they are working fine for her. Any ideas? ...

I have noticed this a few times now. About halfway into a report, when I hit ctrl+shift+m to jump to where the text is, the cursor goes to the very end of the document. Whenever I hit ctrl+shift+m after that, it goes directly to the end, never to where the text/audio is synched. Is there a command that makes this happen that I am doing accidentally? Anyone know how to reverse this. It is soooo annoying to not be able to jump directly to where I want to be!! Thanks. ...

Hey guys - i got this Linkedin message from this guy - don't know what to think of it and wanted another opinion. I am feeling i should ignore it and that is spam of some sort - any thoughts? Dr Nayan Mali Healthcare Dear Lorie, we require medical transcriber for 2hr TAT workmen's compensation work. Let me know your interest. Thanks for your quick response in advance. Dr Nayan ...

This is my gyne oncologist and he is very clearly saying "the patient underwent a TDH/BSO." Not a TLH or a TAH, a TDH. I don't find confirmation of that anywhere. Anyone hear of this??? ...

Hi guys, I will go to the local UE office this week and check this out but I was just curious right now..does anyone know if there's any special funding for those who lost jobs due to technology? LOL I know that sounds odd but there are so many programs now and I'm not even sure what to ask for. See, I just got laid off due to voice WRECK and the doctors doing their own editing. I will be drawing unemployment but I am not sure how long I can get it. I am going to go to ultrasound tech ...

got this in my Other box Hi, Ms. ### I am a good Quality Controller working 10 years for transcription, and worked for M-Modal but he is subcontractor and paying me so less. Can you please arrange M-Modal ID or work for me....i will be very thankful to you Of course this person has an Indian name. Says he is MT/QC at Pulstech Transcription, Brisun Technologies & Caren Technologies Past: job corps and Brainstorm ...

Before the crash, I was in the middle of a report when an ad for an animal shelter came on, encouraging adopting a pet. It played over and over, drowning out the dictator's voice. I thought I had triggered it somehow, but couldn't figure out how to get rid of it. I tried to ignore it, but it was hard to hear the dictation, so I hit "Abandon." Suddenly, the overlapping voice stopped. Yay! I was able to cancel the abandon and finish the report. S ...

background. It seems to happen when I am typing fast and maybe the keys get going to fast and then I hear this loud buzz so not sure what that is. It isnt all the time just every now and then. Rather difficult to explain. ...

Deleted it 'cause I thought it was weird. Anyway, don't have Skype on this MM computer. ...

did they possibly change the character count per line so we make less money? ...

Is it just me or does anybody else think that webclock calculates the time "weird". I really thought I had all my hours in this week and webclock has me down 2 hours, yet I don't remember taking any time off this week. ...

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. ...
