(Goodness gracious, Lyndia. If you're SM

Posted By: MsIndigo on 2008-08-13
In Reply to: Not YET but then again sm - Lyndia

really as skilled and hardworking as you've always sounded, apply to Wedmedx. They're looking for employees, full and part-time, right now, and a skilled employee working a genuine 35 to 40 hours a week consistently can pay the mortgage, the car, buy the grandkids nice presents, take a ceramic-painting class, join friends for lunch out, and decide not to travel on vacation this year because the exchange rates are so awful. Best wishes.)

my goodness you're insecure

Leave. For goodness sakes, if you're unhappy
get out. Stop this juvenile whine and complain behavior.

The only thing more ridiculous than your incessant whining is the fact that you have NO IDEA yet what the new plan is. You have nothing to base it on. What? The 20% ASR reduction? That was foretold upfront...it was a pilot program and the rates would be adjusted later. Well, later is here, people. This is not a new business concept. This happens all the time. The phone company does it with new services, industries do it with new products. You have an option -- opt out of ASR and transcribe. YOU HAVE A CHOICE.

Stop trying to incite panic. It's embarassing for supposedly mature, intelligent people to be acting like this. Grow up.

For goodness sake, if you're going to drag the Bible into it
you might read the part about man being created separately in God's image. In the Old Testament, there are distinctly different punishments for killing a man and killing a beast. Now, no doubt God loves animals and they will be in heaven, but I can assure you, God has not created man and animal on the same level.
As always, Lyndia, very well said! nm

Thanks Lyndia!
Thats exactly what I was looking for.  I was not quite sure how to go about this!  I will look into this more.  :)
Sorry to hear it,, Lyndia. Sickness messes up all plans. SM
That you're nevertheless still able to put money aside is pretty amazing in itself. Feel better soon. :)
would you be gracious enough to point out

Documentation (not just hearsay) of cases where lawsuits have occurred as the result of a medical report that was not transcribed and/or edited by a "medical language specialist."


would not do more than $25 unless she's exceptionally gracious
and has a future in front of her, like med school or something.
Thanks so much for your gracious response. n/m

Gracious! You all are spending way too much $$ on stickies

GSMI, Inc.  Has good single sheet or flat fold. 


Computer Extras has a great price on the large roll of stickies.  Their flat fold is too flimsy for my printer and separates too easily. 


I usually get 1" perforated roll from Computer Extras for $54 including shipping.  It looks like it is for dot-matrix printers (has the holes on the side of the page as leaders to fit the printer) but works great in laser printers.  I tear off as little as 6" inches and stack them up in my manual print tray.  The leaders give an easy separation guide for the offices, too.  The 1" perforation makes little waste when separating multiple chart notes/patients on a page. 


Gracious, that is one heckuva recipe. Too much for me to mess with

good gracious at my grammar - excuse me! nm

Gracious, I guess misery loves company because
I'm just glad it's not just me. Today has been the WEIRDEST day.
He was truly always gracious and groovy to me and I enjoyed him muchly. Thanks Sean and Mike for a

Oh my goodness!! sm
You don't know what you're asking for!  Take it easy?  Your aching fingers may not ache so much but I can promise you will trade aching fingers for a seriously aching HEAD.  A GOOD supervisor will work twice as hard and twice as long as she/he will ever ask of anyone working under her/him.  If you're looking for easy street please do yourself a favor and forget looking for a supervisory position.  (Unless of course you have the wherewithall to buy out Frank) maybe then you could vacation in the Bahamas and just count your cash.
My Goodness!

You are so funny.  It's good to have a laugh at these morons' expense. 


Oh my goodness sm

Yes, they're always still young 'uns, my youngest is 36 but still my baby and I'm the only one in the world allowed to call him "Billy." LOL Your post just so reminded me of my kids, I guess.  2 boys and 2 girls.  I've started Christmas baking and I guess I'm missing the 8 little hands "helping me."  Doing it now in perfectly orderly fashion with no flour all over the kitchen.  The big ones and the little grandkids are far away so I wouldn't mind a little noise, but believe me, I know how aggravating it can be with the crappy dictators.  I've been having some of those myself (it's a full moon ya know).  On the good side, I can swear at my computer screen as loud as I want and today that has been PRETTY loud.  Hope tomorrow will be better for you.


My goodness...
Now I want a housekeeper! LOL

Wonder if I'll ever be able to trust one again? I guess we have to take chances, right? LOL
Well thank goodness for that!
Nobody in the MT world deserves that much money. It's absolultely disgusting if executives can make that much at any company, considering it's the little people who do all the REAL work. The only executives deserving of that kind of salary are the ones who are out of the country half the year on business or actually doing something to better the company in a huge way. That is what is wrong with this country, they pay way too many useless people way too much money.
Thank goodness!
I almost thought that votefortheworst.com website was working!
Well, goodness.
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to get over. You're the one using the bold font, all caps, underlining, and 'way more exclamation points than anyone really needs. That looks like someone on the edge of hysteria to me.

Oh, and the wagging finger image was a nice touch. It added just that little hint of looniness that might otherwise have been missing.

Thanks for the laugh. This thread has been a hoot.

I work with a couple of people like you who prefer to work themselves into a state of towering rage and indignation rather than simply take the one simple step that would solve their problem. They're funny, too. They provide the rest of us with an never-ending source of entertainment.

Looking forward to further posts from you. One can always use a good laugh.
Oh goodness!
I tell you, the day I have my belly button pierced will be the day I get my nose pierced, with a big thick gold ring through my nostrils like those women in the Indian tribes in Africa have!  hehehehehe!  And at the same time I do that, I'm just going to go completely for broke and have them pull my bottom lip down below my chin and stick a gold ring in that, too!  
Oh my goodness
Honestly I don't think they did all they could do as the spokesman says. Because if these 2 girls had an "uncanny resemblance" then the officials would have known that from pictures/ID of the girls....and then someone should have said "Hey, they look A LOT alike, maybe we should confirm the identities".  Sounds like the truckdriver may not have been the only one "asleep at the wheel".  Very, VERY sad.  But happy for the other family.  I can't even imagine. Thanks for sharing the article.
Wow! 15 to 20? Oh my goodness! nm

Thank Goodness No
I think I have a a well balanced life with working at home. I do activities with my two daughters when they're home from school (one is in pre-school two full days a week). My husband and I go out withotu the children as well as take them on various activities. I also have a best friend that lives across the street and we usually go do things with them alone or with their children and our children most weekends, especially in the summer. My neighborhood is filled with children and in the summertime all the neighbors are out socializing. I used to call our neighborhood party central. LOL.
Oh my goodness, I have one
just like that. She is a case manager of pysch, and tehy are always at least 20-minute dictations filled with ummm, ummm, ummm, no change that, no sorry, ummm, ummm! Drives me crazy!
My goodness
I've had that procedure done.  I do not think it would be very pleasant without anesthesia.   
Thanks goodness

Good for you, for quitting and getting a better job.  I have not time for impolite and unprofessional behaviour.  No wonder they don't have much work.  You are better off well shut of them.  If you can be bothered, I would write a letter, more or less as you wrote here, about your experience with them, sort of a let them know how THEY are doing note.  They need to learn a few things obviously. 


Glad to hear you will no longer be a slave to that company.  Hope you are getting out more now!  This work can be addictive.  We can be used and abused. Make your own music gal!  Good luck to you!


Thank goodness!
Thank goodness those things don't do a very good job. At least we will have some form of transcription jobs around for awhile yet.

That reminds me of something funny though. Have you ever had someone start speaking of something you weren't expecting (I mean in person ... just normal conversation or at a business or something), and it just totally sounded like a foreign language or something? Like, you just could not even grasp something for a point of reference to figure it out? - I used to have that happen with a girl I worked with once in awhile (both ways). It is freaky but very funny once you figure out what the person is saying. :)
Oh, goodness...
Nobody is jumping down your throat.  If you are going to fight this, you need more than basic understanding of the issue at hand.  Why don't you try visiting Public Citizen's Web site and see if they can help you?  There are already activist communities out there who already understand how to make effective changes.  Regarding HIPAA, you will receive a lot more help over at ahima.org than you will on any MT site.  Go over there and see if you can talk to somone who actually understands HIPAA and let them explain the details to you.  You can also visit the US Department of Health and Human Services site.  Anyway, it's your effort to organize, so really you should be the one who is telling us what sites to visit.
Me too!! Thank goodness that has gone up since then!

I am sure others have goodness, plus sm
unless you have the original audio and report prior to sending, who really knows who made the error/edit changed by QA or the dictator merely recognized their own mistake and wanted it fixed for the record.

Not making excuses, not at all, or trying to make you feel better, but this is just a reality, the MT has no real protection without the above mentioned originals.
Goodness, how condescending! SM
Don't know any better? Really. Do tell.

I've worked in quite a few different jobs and fields over the years - and yes, professional white-collar jobs. I'm happy where I'm at (a large national), thank you very much.

I make good money (VERY good for where I live), benefits are comparable (if not slightly better than most), and I could not ask for better conditions. Pay is ALWAYS on time. My supervisor leaves me alone to work but is there when I need her. I have a HUGE variety of accounts available to me when work is low or when I'm bored with what I'm doing.

Why on earth would I change?
To my goodness-You can hold your own
here! Hats off to you!
OH MY GOODNESS. I would most definitely shred everything.
That is unnerving. Bless your heart.
My goodness, you are amusing. nm

My goodness! You always have to have the last word, don't you?

I thought you were done with this two posts ago.


Oh my goodness I forgot about the sm
"red surgical book." That was the first edition of The Surgical Word Book. I gave mine away when the next one came out and I have regretted it ever since! I think I told someone in a different post about learning to type on Olivetti manual typewriters but reading your note, I remember they were Royal typewriters!
Oh my goodness - I had no idea that
it could mean not only how many years they smoked - sometimes I wondered what age they started when it was such a large number (like 40) but it makes sense now that it could be divided in half. Thanks so much for explaining that. - Laurie
Thank goodness he is behind bars
There is no punishment severe enough for someone like that.
And to think he was a teacher :-(

I always believed Patsy and, as a mother, couldn't imagine being falsely accused the way she was. How awful. And to die before her name was cleared. Sad, so very sad. Thank goodness she knew the case was progressing and a clear suspect was being investigated. May Patsy and JonBenet both rest in peace. Bless the family.
what?where? Not where I live, thank goodness
in south Florida !!!  Thanks goodness for that!  *big smile*
Oh my goodness, Sharon! sm
I live in Lewisburg, PA too!!!  Too funny!  
Oh my goodness! That's a lot of coffee.
I recently cut my coffee intake from three large cups a day to, most days, none. For me, the big reason is that I sugar/cream it to death, and thought I might lose a few pounds. I also do not think that my brain works right when I've had that much coffee.

Trying to move to green tea sweetened with honey, and not three large cups. (LOL)
Thank goodness, if I had to work
anymore and worry about a job such as MT, I would hate that, but then I would be younger and might want to try something else. I am sooooooooo glad I am retirement age and if pushed, i.e. like lack of work, can go that route although would like to continue working for now.
I'm not required to but I do and thank goodness! sm
I've received emails over the last two days from doctor's offices asking about missing reports. I had sent the reports they were missing...I just sent them again...QA said it was probably on their end...well it would have to be, because I had everything completed that I was assigned and turned in before the required time.


Thank goodness because you just made


Thank goodness you caught it and not QA
 thanks for the chuckle
I haven't, thank goodness, but... sm
You can tell when me moves it from one side of his mouth to the other because his speech gets even more garbled.
My goodness, what a temper.
x
oh my goodness...I am so sorry. hang in there. sm
Sometimes it's a blessing in disguise.
Hugs all around.
My goodness!!!!! that's just awful!
We have a group of radiologists that are in our hospital that read our reports. Gosh I can't believe that is happening! How crazy is that! I may end up having to change careers if my job isn't secure. I hate to do that because I have to work to pay the bills so I would be doing school and working full-time, and I have an 11-month old baby that I will hardly get to spend any time with, but I guess I gotta do what I gotta do.
