traveling MT
Anyone know of a company that hires MTs to travel around the country to transcribe?  Thought I heard of one a year or so ago....just sounds interesting and something I might like to try.
traveling
I would be interested in hearing how you did that since that's something my hubby has wanted to do for years (and I said it couldn't be done).
traveling as an MT

Interested in information regarding taking your job on the road with you.  Anyone with experience in this?  Hubby wants to retire next year, buy an RV, and hit the open road.  Can this be done?  I work for one of the nationals, and I'd like to get my ducks in a row before I start packing my bags!


Traveling MT
Yes it can be done.  You can either use a wireless "stick" that can be installed for use with your laptop or regular computer or you can use a cellphone with wireless internet service.  I used wireless internet, via cellphone, while visiting Europe (yep, working as an MT) - expensive and certainly not DSL/cable, but it worked.  Enjoy yourself!   
traveling mt's

Traveling through.....
You hit the nail on the head.  I am amazed at what MTs are putting up with these days.  Just wanted to get some opinions.  The company doesn't start with a D and is not in PA.  Thanks everyone for your input.
If you would like to work if ever traveling, go for

Traveling Transcriptionists?

Thought this sounded interesting to somebody.  A place called KForce evidently has job openings for transcriptionists.  Hope the link works:

There are also traveling claims examiners. (sm)
While I never experienced anything like Kforce, I did experience my share of changes working for several temp agencies that hired medical claims processors that travel. The pay was always on time, they paid for the hotel and the rental car, gave us a weekly "per diem" allowance each week for meals, gas, etc. BUT, some of the people they hired on these assignments would send chills down your spine. You had people using the rental cars to transport drugs, using gas money to buy crack, fighting in the hotels, setting the apartments on fire accidentally, arguing with roommates over who would do the dishes, sexually harassing coworkers on the same assignments, the list is endless. Not only that, but after awhile, as a traveler, you get tired of living out of a suitcase and rushing to catch flights and running through airports like O.J. Simpson in a Hertz rental car commercial. For all of those reasons, I decided to come in off the road and work at home. Also, there was one agency that didn't pay for the hotel or the rental car. The manager told us that sometimes we'd have to "whip out that credit card!" and pay for everything, and they would reimburse us. I didn't do it, and they ended up paying for my hotel and car, but I worked with some coworkers that were owed $10,000 in hotel and car expenses, and were still waiting to be reimbursed because the manager said he had he had the receipts in his suitcase. Some travelers had maxed out their credit cards paying for hotel and car expenses. So, bottom line is, travelers go through a lot, and it's not as glamourous as it sounds (not by a long shot).
Internet access while traveling
Just to add to the information regarding wireless Internet capabilities at several different hotels, it might benefit you to also check out places such as Panera Bread stores.  They are located throughout the country and many of their stores also offer WI-FI free of charge.  Also, you may want to consider going online and checking out WI-FI Hotspots.  Amazing what kinds of places have wireless these days!  (If you're an RV'er, you've really got it made!)  Good luck!
Traveling MT.. Sage St. Staffing

Traveling medical transcriptionist

What companies hire for traveling medical transciptionist?  I am interested in a position like this.  If any information, please advise.


Webmedx--laptop? traveling
Anybody here use a laptop with Webmedx and travel? I'd love to be able to get away from home but not take time off work. I guess I could haul the PC around, but that wouldn't be as easy as a laptop.

thanks!
K-force. They hire traveling MTs. www.kforce.com I think. nm

Anyone work for a company that they can use a laptop for and do while traveling..
With school soon out, we plan on doing traveling, but my currently job's platform/foot pedal is not compatible with my computer as it uses either a 15-pin or a USB and my current job requires a 9-pin foot pedal thus I can only use it at home and wouldnt be able to work while we travel. Does any know of any companies with a platform and/or foot pedal setup that allows for this. Thanks in advance
Does anyone remember the post about traveling transcription

I see where the position was filled, but I cannot find the original posting for it, and I would be interested in at least sending a resume for future travel assignments.  Does anyone happen to remember it or who it was for??
