Bad organization how? nm

owner, not organization.
 
Well there is completeness and organization
and then there is padding. Tabbing would get you the kind of attention you are not looking for because that's not standard. Don't use unnecessary abbreviations, but don't be spelling out COPD every time, either. It's just too common and understood. But there are many abbreviations that doctors may say that they don't necessarily mean you don't spell out. I hear bili I type bili, but it changes to bilirubin. Same with lymphs, eos, etc. Find out the proper names of hospitals. They say RCH, you have your shortcut to put the real name in. Have shorcuts for bacterial names. I type ecoli and I get E. coli. But if I type ecolij, I get the whole thing. You'd want the whole thing at least once in the report - usually the first time and/or in the diagnosis. Things like that are legitimate. Even eratic dictators often follow the same physical exam, so at least have normals for those. Often the ROS also. And you could add the usual subheadings there even when not dictated without getting in trouble. There is no telling how your counter has been configured as far as how things are counted, but some day somebody might take a fine-tooth comb to your work, so I don't suggest you start spelling out three-digit numbers or anything else you can't justify. Other MTs see stuff like that and they will scream - padding. And if you get in bad habits it will be harder to change in the future. In other words, be honest but thorough.
What does Christian have to do with a business? nm

I would love to find another organization dedicated
to the American MT. I dropped AAMT really quick when I found what they were doing. In one of their news releases they more or less blamed American MTs for the need to go overseas to find members. They were begging for more members because of the loss of money to the organization.
Christian owed Transcription Co.

Is there a Christian-based transcription Company?   In speaking with another MT, she mentioned this, but could not remember the name of the company.  Any help would be appreciated.  THANKS A BUNCH


Christian-based company
The sad thing is, some Christians will use their so called Christianity to make themselves more trustworthy then they are.
Christian MT board, by chance?

I had a link to a site of this nature from a very long time ago.  Since I'm looking around I decided to check it out, thinking it's an MTSO, or a listing of several who are faith-based, etc.  I signed up for the thing and got a reply asking me if I'm a Christian, if I have experience or not, that type of thing.  That's when I realized they must not be an MTSO, but signed up anyway, in hopes of looking for other sources for jobs.


While I approve of their no bashing policy, a couple of my closest friends are Jewish, so I have a great deal of respect for their religion (and of course the fact that Israel is a huge ally of the US). 


It didn't dawn on me until I read the post about no Jews here (for that site, not this one).  That's not cool.  My friends aren't militant, and would just roll their eyes over it.  Regardless, I have no idea why they'd do this. 


Is this the site discussed here?  Maybe there are more of them.  ??


Aren't they the ones that claim to be a good Christian
company too?  Sounds too much like TranScam to me. 
This good Christian company doesn't pay their MTs. nm
 
What would American MTs want or expect from new MT organization or union? What kind of benefits

would you all want?  What kind of resources or services would you expect?  How about certification exams - necessary or not?  What about MT education, industry standards, etc?  Would you change some of the BOS rules?


I'm curious.  A fellow MT and I used to say the AAMT was lacking and recently with all the outsourcing and MTs losing jobs and the AAMT turning a blind eye, I've been thinking again that we need a organization that better defends and represents the American MT.


I feel like Norma Rae! 


My husband is a Christian minister - I write -Christmas-
I find no offense at all with Xmas. If you do your research you will find this is true.
Yep, it's for selling some kind of health supplements from home, like an Amway organization. nm

If they are supposedly AWESOME
why do they have so much turnover and why are there so many posters who worked there and left? Don't you have to wonder about a company that is so great but still has to advertise?
Anybody know anything about who SPI supposedly bought yet?
I really hope its not Medware.
I'm on TWS too. Supposedly yes for spaces.
xx
Supposedly 5+ years but have you seen some
Unbelievable, and you would think they just started in the MT business.
The other person supposedly sm
owed the $12,000 was supposedly in India and she supposedly had been paid.  This is similar posting, same MTSO and a lot of money owed.  Strange.
these were supposedly large sm
companies that have been around awhile.  I am hearing a lot of MTs going through the same thing.  Its getting ridiculous!
when they didn't supposedly even know
yeah right. I don't believe anything they say, or that any promises will remain in effect for long, keep hearing: in the foreseeable future, at this time, as far as we know...they sold you down the river...why give them the glory of your presence and hard work. Say NO.
If they are out of NC, supposedly their software is very efficient.
I have not worked there, but talked to them when they were trying to start up the company about 2 years ago.

Supposedly this was not real patients - sm
Someone in authority checked and it was supposedly test patients that sounded very real.  I don't know for sure as I don't work there but this is what was said. 
Supposedly if you send anything to India you can't put an ad up for an MT BUT sm

Alltype sends everything after 8 p.m. EST to India to be done overnight and THEY are allowed to have an ad up here. 


Cornerstone in NJ, Zylomed, Transcend, TransTech, EFD are those that come immediately to mind, but that is just a couple compared to the fact that I know others would never send to India.


the normal standard supposedly is sm
1 minute of dictation equals 10 lines. Obviously if its a slow dictator then you make out really good. If its a really fast person, not so good. I worked on the minute basis for several years and did fine.

Given the climate of the way these companies don't want ot pay for spaces, headers, etc it might not be a bad deal anymore. I guess it depends on how fast it takes you to turn around the number of minutes you need to type.

Good luck!
Supposedly starts 10/06 and will continue
into the 3rd quarter of next year. I would hope they would let us know, at the very least, which accounts are going first and a time frame for the rest of this year.
If you search old posts, they supposedly don't pay much at all, even for experience. nm

I can't believe a supposedly professional adult said bite me! HA!!! sm
Now we ALL want to work for Proveros and get invited to bite the management woohoo!
Supposedly, editing would be faster than straight typing
and the VR would be ONLY for those doing editing. Not everyone will be doing editing (at Transcend).
Supposedly Spheris is sending reports out by specialty, SM
except don't expect the same rate of pay as MQ. With Spheris, or any other company where you must use their piece of ---- equipment, the line counts can be, shall we say, variable.

I really wish you luck. If you don't need benefits, try a smaller company. Put resume out there. Might get some hits.

Axolotl and Spheris supposedly start insurance early, too. nm

Supposedly new upgrade for WordClient is compatible with Vista, per our mgmt.

We are about to do an upgrade, and they say it will be compatible with Vista with this new upgrade of WordClient.  Yipeeee


 


You are correct - also the millions CEOs took off the top for the Katrina supposedly home reimbursem
Well, I don't know I think it is the lobbying. We don't have lobbyists. With employment going up, mortgages defaulting, no one mentions in the news about all the US jobs going overseas causing this. I was so pro Hillary Clinton until I read about her being an advocate of outsourcing jobs and was overseas promoting it, I don't remember what country offhand - that broke my heart. Look back to before this president took office - you didn't hear of outsourcing to other countries or jobs going overseas, maybe I am wrong but if it brings lots of money to companies - they are certainly going to be hiring the lobbyists to keep it going.

I don't know why the new does not report what is happening - they seem to skirt the issue big time. Talk about unemployment and mortgage defaults by not the reason - we are all being replaced overseas. I guess if you can retire with millions of dollars in your pocket from stealing from the American people then it won't matter when the downfall happens to the rest of us.
