Platelet count cannot be reported due to platelet s/l crumbs

I just got a note from QA for a hospital I transcribe for (didn't even know we had QA!) that I have been transcribing platelets incorrectly. D: Hemoglobin 14, hematocrit 39, platelet count 200, WBC 2000,... etc., T: Hemoglobin 14, hematocrit 39, platelet count 200, WBC 2000, Corrected: T: Hemoglobin 14, hematocrit 39, platelet count 200,000, WBC 2000... I've been transcribing this way for 15 years, will do whatever the account wants but I've looked ...

The daughter of a friend of mine works in the clinic that I worked at for 18 years in medical records is known to read charts and then tell others about what she has read. For example, someone who has an STD that she knows, she has told lots of friends about it and I have heard it myself. Does anyone have any idea what happens when you report someone for a violation? I am sure that they take the person's name who is reporting it but can you tell me what else is ...

I'm pretty sure my former employer made a mistake on my W2 or made a mistake by withholding state taxes. I live in a state that has no state taxes. My company is in a state tax state. I just cracked open my W2 and it shows state tax withholding. I checked last year's W2 for same company, state (theirs and mine), and nothing is in that box. I'll be calling them, but does anyone kinow if there may have been a change I didn't hear about? Or ...

What was the process you went through? I would guess you most likely would contact the labor board. Was that your state or the state of the MTSO main office? I would think they would ask for my timesheets, which I have kept. Did you mail things to an address the labor board gave you and deal with one investigator? What was the outcome of your case? How long did it take to get the matter resolved and receive your back pay for all the overtime? I know I pr ...

If you have, can you explain the process? Did you supply them with a weekly log of your hours? Did you file to the state you reside or the Department of Labor where your company has its main office? How long did it take to get your check;-) How were you paid - did they figure an average hourly rate as we are paid per line? Any info appreciated. ...

My gosh, they all are sleeping together. ARTICLE: Constellat ...

Is this correct? I type 70,000 characters a day. I am paid by the 65 character line so I would divide 70,000 by 65 to get 1076, then multiple that by pay per line, say $.10 and get $107. If this is not correct then what is the formula? And what is the average number of lines per day? Thanks so much for the info. ...

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what is the easiest way to not count template lines when trying to invoice? I get a line count through Word, but I hear that Word counts blank spaces as well.

why at the end of every shift do I still bother to calculate my line totals - transcription & VR - when 9 out of 10 times I am only discouraged??? Its not my lack of skill, knowledge , speed or anything I have done that determines this loss. Why, oh why, do I hang in there. Maybe for the occasional good day? The high I get when I can fly through a report of an ESL doctor, because I know better what he is trying to say? Or maybe its the constant editing with ...

I'm currently working as a new IC for a co. that just asked me to invoice them using MP Count software. They had an .exe application for it on their ftp server, but of course when I transferred it to my computer and tried to load it, it didn't work. Now when I go to mp word's website, I see that they charge for the software, and there doesn't seem to be any software that ONLY functions as line counting software. Any experience with the softwar ...

I have been working for this company for about 18 month and so far so good. It was even bought out by a bigger company and everything stayed the same with no problems. They don't bother me, I do my work and everything is fine. About 6 months ago my line count started going way down and I really just chalked it up to not being able to concentrate as much because my baby started walking and basically making it impossible for me to work. For the past week my line count has about doubled. ...

Over an hour into my shift, I went to check my line count, so that I can keep track hourly.. well it has ZERO... nothing has taken effect yet??? is this normal. ...

I have been told that I need to increase my LPH. So last night I kept track of the lines of each document done by using MS Word. But later when I compared it to Nuance's line tracker (ichart) it only listed half the lines that MS Word listed. How can this be? I realized that Word my count blank lines, but how can there possibly be that much difference? I felt like I really kicked butt last night, but then to look at LPH with Nuance's ichart I felt cheated/ ...
