Hard Copies - cc:


Posted: Feb 17, 2010

This may be an obvious question to most, but how do I print a hard copy of a document I recently completed on EditScript?  Or can I?  I'd like to keep a copy of what "I edited/typed myself" before the QA reviews it, so that I can see my errors and learn from them, or have something to back me up if I disagree.  Can someone provide me with an answer. please  I know I can print them AFTER they have been reviewed by QA, but I want it before hand with my errors.....should there ever be any....lol

Thanks!!

Maybe with all the new HIPPA rules, MTs cannot access any reports, and in particular, not allowed to print them. I am not able to access even my corrected reports anymore on the office computer due to HIPPA regulations and patient privacy act.

I was looking for a particular report to see what QA had changed, and was told that no one could access any reports again, even on the office computer, due to HIPPA regulations. I guess as long as it has the patient's name on it anywhere, that is a no-no, even to those of us that transcribed it in the first place.

Keep everything, I would love to know if the TSMs are sending out generic explanations of the new policies that are given to them by the company or if they are their own interpretations.

I also don't understand how they FORCED me to take a shift and now are threatening to change my shift to when work is available. Something stinks and we need to stand together on this or we wi ...

HIPAA - MTs Being Fired For Sending Wrong Carbon Copies
May 03, 2010

First of all, let me just say to the people who have already been fired for MISTAKENLY sending the wrong CC I am truly sorry to hear this My question is, is this a case of SEVERE OVERACTION by the MTSOs or is this the case now according to HIPAA? So are they saying that because a non-treating MD received a report and everyone in the office, wherever, "SAW" that report that it breaks the Privacy Rule and thus a breach? So there is no need for a warning to the MT who did that but just grounds ...

I have been looking around the boards for a bit and I see everyone complaining about working for peanuts (or less) for their MTSO.  I currently work at home for a somewhat local hospital in my area.  They sent all of their transcriptionists home about 6 years ago and their coders are home now too.  I know that the other big hospital system in my area has all of their transcriptionsts at home too.  Is it really that hard to find a job like mine or did I just get lucky?  ...

I moved to Nuance/Webmedx last December after Medquist purchased JLG and I was NOT about to work for them.  What a huge mistake on my part, not that either were good options.  My pay has dropped to minimum wage -- I now bring home MONTHLY what 4 years I had made pre ...

I sent instant message telling mgm and was told after the fact I should have divided the categories. I am not a physician, could not differentiate that clearly to start with, the guy c ...

No Matter How Hard I Try, I Just Cannot Keep My Lph Up.

I'm surprised I haven't received performance management yet. I just cannot keep my line count up high enough since going to Fluency 7.6. This is too frustrating. Maybe I should copy a job into Word and see if the line count matches. Although, it could be because the ASR output has been so horrible and I am stopping 3x more to make corrections. I don't get why ASR outputs synonyms of what was said and alternative ways to phrase what was said, not to mention the downright w ...

Now Transcription Is Hard To Apply To
