We discussed the possibility of a s/l Cozen's deformity (orthopedics)

My hospital has just been bought by another hospital system that reportedly outsources to MQ; they give the docs an MQ number to call if they have problems with dictation, etc. We are now official employees of the new hospital but have not idea whether our jobs are to be outsourced immediately, end of year, never, or whether MQ would hire us because we know the account so well after 10-15 years.

Line rates: Why are experienced MTs being paid the same rates as newbies? These MTSOs state that an experienced MT should end up with more money because he/she is able to produce more lines than a newbie. I contest this by stating that experienced MTs are also producing HIGHER QUALITY lines and can do so with less help and less supervision (and, of course, much faster), and even if both the newbie and the experienced MT produced the same number of lines, since the experienced MT's lines ...

I've been offered part-time transcription at home, working for one orthopedic surgeon. I've got over 12 years experience in many specialties, but have never done orthopedics.
