in hosp for formal f***s***al monitoring . pt 28 weeks pregnant.

Hi all, I have been doing MT on a contingent basis for the last 6 years for my mom (who used to run her own I/C company). For the past 3 years I've been a CNA and this past August had to choose between knee surgery to continue being a CNA or to find another line of work, I have 2 little girls, so I chose the later. The problem I'm running into is it seems to be a requirement to have a degree or cert in MT/ME to find ANY thing in this field! Does anyone know of a company that doe ...

I am due to have my baby next month. I still have not told either of the places I work for that I am having a baby. For those of you who have been through this before, did you let your company know or did you just have your baby and then got right back to work as quickly as possible? The company I am an employee I am not worried about my job getting gone, but the company where I am an IC, I am a little weary of telling them I might miss a few days because I don't know if t ...

In a state where there is a prevailing wage (over $19/hr for MTs) law for employees who perform work on a state government contract, how do you suppose this MTSO is in compliance when the MTSO itself is only getting less than 10 cents per line? Of course, they are probably not in compliance. I suspect that, while the company address listed on the contract is within the state, the work is being performed offshore, perhaps in India (just a guess after seeing the contractor's name).&nbs ...

I realize we work on production and that we're not making money when our fingers aren't moving, but I don't think there are too many jobs where you're actually actively working for the entire 8-hour shift. There's always downtime. I understand it being a problem if people aren't producing a reasonable amount of work during their shift, but come on! Being chastised for stepping away from the keyboard for a bathroom break or to grab a cup of coffee i ...

Well, I will not be reading these emails calculating how much time we are working and "goofing off." They will only make me less motivated and quite frankly angry. I am not a robot, there are times after a long difficult report that I have to step away from the computer to give my brain a few minute break. As long as I do the required long count and then some, I will not concern myself with this emails. ...

About this monitoring crap. Why aren't the docs monitored? Why do we have to change our ways and they don't have to. On ASR there are a couple of docs who dictate in the "wrong order" and I have to move everything around, cut and paste, do the caps thing, etc. Almost all of them dictate in the order of the standard headers. Some of these dictators change their mind 2-3 times in the same sentence not to mention they change their mind and you do not kno ...

Got a phone call yesterday from TL questioning my being short on my time card. I had sent in OOW email etc and followed protocol as on that prior Saturday had run out of work which is typical for Saturdays with who I type for, but am still being questioned and was told to take PTO Time to make my 40 hours week. Said that they were going over making sure everyone was working their assigned schedule. ...

I was put on monitoring for "quality." Supposedly my quality was under 99%. Has anyone else had to do this? how long? It's been a week now but I haven't heard not one word, no kind of feedback, no email, nothing. ...

My company just said they are going to have us install Remote Computer Monitoring and Management onto our computers for "HIPAA" and to make sure we are productive. Does this allow them to monitor only while we are working or all of the time? The company does not supply computers, these are our personal ones. ...

Do they still monitor keystrokes and mouseclicks? I.e., if I am in Google...or checking AOL email, are those keystrokes counted? I do think giving real feedback on how lph is good, but I agree...it is creepy. And what about breaks? I have always just stayed in a job and taken a 20 min break and then come back. Should we not do that? It has never been really clear. ...

Just thought I'd let you know that I received an email from Sue telling me that people are telling her to come to this site to see what people are saying. She said that she values the MTs, even though they fall short (her words), and that she would like to discuss this with me. Well, I'm not going to discuss anything with her as then my identity will be know, which will probably get me fired. I just thought I'd let everyone from Transcend know they are watching, ...

I do not hear an "S" though - just sounds like "moe" Thank you ...

I swear it sounds like he is saying "pregnant" Hohmann. "brachioradialis tendon was lifted up, pregnant Hohmann was placed along the most lateral aspect of the radial tuberosity." I cannot verify it in any of my books or online. Help please if you can. TIA! ...

This is my first time posting, but I hope someone can help me. Regarding precordial doppler monitoring system, I am not sure what to capitalize, if anything. Thanks in advance! ...

I'm doing a report for an epidural steroid injection for a doctor who speaks extremely fast. I've done reports for him in the past but can't seem to find my sample reports for him - they seem to have disappeared into thin air! I really don't want to have to send it to QA. I'm hoping someone can help. He says: "A timeout was performed. _____ monitoring _____ blood pressure and pulse oximetry were placed." Any ideas?&nb ...

Just to add a little to my prior posts on this subject, I invite all of you to search "data complex Utah" and you will be amazed at this gigantic "storehouse of personal communications of every American" that is being built costing billions of dollars. It is about 1 million square feet of space and the maintenance of that building will cost billions too. So MModal monitoring us is nothing compared to the supposed fact that every single thing we do electronicallly (phone, intern ...

Just figured my pay on lines for the last 2 weeks. Really depressing. I figured it twice because I thought it just couldn't be right. New Year sure isn't starting off well. ...

Please clarify .... is it weeks or weeks' ?? The patient is a 21-year-old G2, P1-0-0-1 at 37 plus 1 weeks' gestation who presents ........ ...

I got switched to a new acct a little over a month ago and have been out of work on a daily basis for about 3 weeks. Yesterday an email was sent that we would know this morning what the status is and still no word. ARG!!! Anyone else in the west know what is going on? ...

I just turned in my resignation. Crazy to change jobs right before the holidays but I've done it before. Cannot wait to start new job at smaller company for, yes, a little less pay but no corporate bigwigs and no offshores. I feel free! ...

Hello fellow MT's, I saw that another MT posed this question and I thought it was a great idea to get a heads up before I do this. I plan on giving MM my 2 weeks very very very soon and I was wondering if anyone who has given 2 weeks at MM could tell me what happened immediately after they gave their notice? How they were treated, how PTO you have banked was handled, etc. Anything will be helpful. You can private e-mail me if you would like. Thank you in advance, it is very much appreciated ...

How long does it take? ...

What if I don't give a 2 week notice? Is it really gonna hurt me? I doubt they give detailed information about what kind of employee you were. Maybe just dates. I have been with this company since the mid 90s and I hate to just up and leave like that, but I don't know if I can take it another day. Every week its something new. My pay is down to almost nothing. With the type of reports I get, there is no way I'm making 5% and living with my ...

Dictator also says EPO therapy 40000 units every 2 weeks. ...

Why do these "schools" continue to advertise? There is NO WAY someone can learn what we do in 8 weeks. I am amazed at advertisements such as these!!! ...

I have heard not one word. No calls, no e-mails, nothing. I am a CMT with over 25 years of experience, experience in every specialty, huge hospitals, etc. Am I too experienced and do they think I would want too much money? Why wouldn't they at least ask? I used to get a phone call immediately upon sending a resume. Nowadays, nothing. I'm amazed that these companies are not looking for good help. ...
