My son had that test when he was 18 months old. He was put in the hospital with the croup and they did that test and when I asked what it was they told me it was for cystic fibrosis, but it was negative.
After being so tired of not being taken seriously and dealing with management shifts that don't know me from Jane, I really would like to take the CMT test. I've been doing this for 13 years so not a newbie but honestly the test scares me. I would like to take one of the prep course but don't really know which one to take. I don't want to overdue if not needed and the prices for the courses vary by quite a bit. AHDI has multiple classes listed but I ...

Have you ever compared MModal to a sweat shop? I have over 30 years experience as a transcriptionist. I was quoted 10 cents a line for straight transcription and did not get the doctors I was promised I would get. When I question my CCM, she says "you are primary". No I am not, as there are at least 2 other transcriptionists getting first dips on that account. I was quickly switched to VR at a whopping 4 cents a line. So now they are getting my s ...
I had a thought with the recent decision to not take a non-medical transcription job. I told the owner of the transcription company that I needed to be paid 8 cpl for this job and she was only paying 6-1/2 cpl. I told her that my expenses for everything are rising, food, shelter, gas etc. and she told me that the account that I would be doing this work for demands low cost for their transcription because of the work being sent to India, Pakistan, and the Philippines. This is a huge constructi ...
Hey everyone!
I'm looking into taking an RMT prep course to prepare me for the RMT exam and then will be going for the CMT exam later on. I took my MT training with Career Step, but they keep pushing the time frame on re-releasing their RMT prep course back later and later. It was due to release this August and now it will be mid-fall.
I got an e-mail from M-Tec the other day about a RMT prep course they have, which was priced well and seemed to take a reasonable amount of tim ...
I have a question regarding the different prep courses offered for the RMT exam. There is one offered through OAK Horizons and one offered through Career Steps. I am wondering if anyone has used them and found them to be helpful at all or a complete waist of money. I really want to earn my RMT status, but I graduated from my mt course a little over a year ago and think that I could really use a refresher course. Any thoughts about these would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! ...

My company is offering an incentive in pay if I get credentialized, so I am going to go for CMT.
My question to all of you is which course is the best to take? I see that Career Step, M-Tec, and Omniscribe offer prep courses, but I don't want to waste time and money on these if they will not adequately prepare me for the exam. ...

Is anyone familiar with all the Carol Buck books for coding certification training?
