Yes, yes and yes!!! I had so many offers...
after I graduated that I was shocked! The standard 2-year experience requirement was waived by every company I contacted.
Yes, M-Tec is totally a self-paced, self-study program, but there is also incredible 1-on-1 instructor support. The program is very comprehensive and definitely not easy but well worth every penny!
If you want a career as an MT, you can't go wrong with M-TEC. 
CPL offers
are usually set in motion by what the MTSO is receiving in pay from the facility. As a small MTSO, I am very much restricted by what the facilities are willing to pay me as a vendor. It is an unfortunate circumstance, but it is a sign of the times. There are MTs willing to the work for 8 CPL, and if not, the Nationals outsource it overseas. I think that sums it up in a nutshell....It is a shame, but it is where the industry has gone of late. EMR, VR and outsourcing cutting into what a MTSO can get from the facilities for line rates. Sad but true....I hope you find what you're looking for. 
I am not a CMT and I get job offers all of the
much unless you like having initials after your name. It is not like you can put it on your reports. XXX/xxx, CMT - can you? So no one but the company you work for (who probably doesn't care) and you will know... nobody else. Most CMTs complain they aren't compensated enough anyway, so who gives a hoot? The only benefit I see is having initials after your name, which unless you are in this field, who knows what that means? Sounds important, but to have to pay hundreds to test and then to fail only to have to pay hundreds to take it again????? I'd think that one over and over and over and over... JMO. A penny more a line??? Just seek out your own account and you'll make lots of extra pennies per line... believe me!
It is only because no one offers that anymore
nm
I don't think anyone offers PT MTs benefits - sm
at least I have NEVER heard of any. I don't think I have ever even heard of any PT job that had benefits. All you can do is start making phone calls to said companies and ask them. Good luck.
Just because someone offers their opinion,...
and it differs from another's, does not make it negative. You didn't hear what you wanted to hear in my responses, but that does not mean I am being negative toward you. I just think you need to do your own work. Asking for help is one thing, and asking for a handout is entirely different.
You may not need all that MPWord offers.
I've looked at MP Word several times myself and it just more than I need, although in a different setting/situation, I may need all the options. If you have a choice and you have MS Word available to you, you will be fine. You should have an encryption method available to you; WinZip offers encryption with it's Pro version, about $50.
Just something else for you to consider.
I would have to separate by category!
first 3 that come to mind are: The Notebook, Hope Floats and Sweet Home Alabama (SHA didn't get rave reviews, but I just loved that movie!)
ET, Titanic and Forrest Gump are like classics and you HAVE to love them!
Independence Day, MIB, most of the Marvel (comics) movies, Van Helsing and both Underworlds top my list too!
Oh, and then there is the animated stuff... the list is never ending! (and we own over 400 DVDs!)
Not on a separate line, per se
but separated by paragraphs. It looks something like:
Name #1
Address
City, State, Zip
Name #2
Address
City, State, Zip
...and so on.
MS Word not separate (SM)
MS bundles Word with their MS Office product. Previous companies I have worked for had MS Word alone on a generic disk. As far as I know, none of them are in jail yet.
OpenOffice.org provides a program that rivals MS Office. You can download it for FREE from their site. If you are doing this for work however, I don't know that it would be compatible with platforms you would be using - I'd say probably not.
Should you need to purchase MS Office so you can have MS Word, check out newegg.com. I know with operating systems such as Windows XP, you can buy versions that computer builders use - no fancy packages, just a disk and a license - for significantly less than what you'd pay for an off-the-shelf product at say Staples. Don't know if you can do the same with Office. Check out CNet.com for reviews. CNet.com also has forums where you can post a question and an Editor will answer you.
Good Luck!
I have a separate office
Although it's open and doesn't have doors.
I use a separate room
I have a 2 bedroom place, hubby and I use the master room and I transcribe in the "office." This keeps me, for the most part, without distractions other than those I create myself. I set up a place for my cats to sleep so they don't sleep on the computer desk, and have found that this works the best for me...very short attention span when I tried it in the living room. Just don't move work into the bedroom you sleep in, might cause sleep problems.
Are they separate checks (sm)
totalling 12,000+. You'd have to check the court system, but that may actually be over the amount for small claims court and you'd have to go to the next level. Has she made ANY attempt to pay any of it? Do you have any "demands" for payment in writing? If not, I think I'd get that in the mail today. You need to establish a papertrail. Formal demand asking for payment in a set period of time by cash or money order. Send it cert mail with return receipt.
Yes I did have a separate firewall....sm
I have also used the AVG for years. My friend has also used it for years. I know a lot of people who have used it and continue to with no problems. I had no problems until someone hacked into my computer. When I took it to the computer guy, he said you are using a free AVG version. He said that is the problem. He said why do you think they are free? They don't fully protect your computer. I have no idea with a firewall on how they still got into my computer but they did. My friend had someone hack into hers while using AVG free version and separate firewall and stole her identity. I am just trying to keep the expensive mistake I made from happening to other people. It is costing me $250 to have the computer repaired.
Yes, separate computer sm
I have kept an older computer with SP2 but don't have the original CD rom. I use it for checking personal e-mails etc.,, will try it tomorrow, sore neck from trying to "make it work". Will try tomorrow when my neck feels better. Stress........Thanks for trying to help me. Of all things, to misplace a CD rom, how dumb am I????

Two separate issues
Her medical records were indeed compromised several years ago and they did a sting with the doctor to find out who it was. The person responsible, ironically, died of cancer before she could be prosecuted. Farrah talks about it in the documentary. The documentary itself is Farrah and Alanna filming her treatment and journey over the last year or so.
When you take on too much work. Getting 2 PT job offers plus have FT with national (sm)
Two local doctors offering me 2-3 hours per day each, plus the FT (about 6 actual hours of typing a day) with a national.
One doctor is orthopedic, the other vascular surgeon (H&Ps in office). One is a mumbler, the other has a lisp. The national job is radiology (fairly easy - would be faster if I could master IT, though).
What should I do? Am afraid I will take on more than I can handle and at same time, refuse a job that I later will regret. I need the money, needless to say. Anyone ever face this?
I wonder if the state where you live offers
In Georgia they do have this, and a person who is convicted of a felony and completes the sentence requirements then has their rights restored, such as voting and the ability to officially answer "No" when asked about a felony conviction. Supposedly the information would not be available to a potential employer and most others, though I believe some are still privy to the information.
Does anyone know if IT offers a trial period? sm
From the comments on this post and the post I placed yesterday, I am convinced I would like to try IT. I hate to spend $189 though and not like it but I do not see on their web site where they offer a money back trial period. Also, do you know if you download it and have it immediately or if it comes in the mail? Thanks to all who have offered their opinions, it really helps!
Whoa, are you blessed! You see offers out here for 6-8 cpl
s
Only do Free offers - no cc needed!
Take a look at my blog again - even in free offers they are trying to sell you something, you simply say "No Thank you". Also, I included a couple of links that are how-to guides. E-mail me if you need more help or visit the forum. Best wishes!
For Iowa their 12 cpl is good. IHP usually offers...
11 cpl to contractors. If you're from Iowa IHP should be one you recognize, their statewide.
The local service in Waterloo, pays their MTs 6 cpl, ridiculous. Hospitals paying hourly are still around $9 hourly.
It's the midwest, for those others who don't know but cost of living is nothing near other areas of the country.
Personally, I work for a national on the east coast and make 10 cpl employee status, far better than anything I've seen in my home state.
Have 2 job offers, one pays 9 cents per 65...sm
character line and the other 11 cents per 85 character line. I am not sure how to figure the difference so am not sure which might be the better offer line rate wise. I would SO appreciate some help!
MQ offers PT employees benefits
You have to work 24 hours a week to be eligible. I don't carry the insurance, so I don't know much else about it, but I'm sure if you read through the MQ board, someone on there will mention it and you can email them.
Yes, it sure is. I was told on 3 separate occasions that
I could use it for work but when they saw how much I was racking up in charges, they told me I was not eligible and sent me a $2500 bill. I would be careful if I were you!!!!!
Or try to get the kids a separate policy
xx
set up a separate entry for that with all caps. that's what I do.
x
its separate from hair and nails
is around 40k a year. Thats the highest ive made as an MT. You need a license, go through state board, and there are several schools throughout the US. Just do a search on "aesthetic or esthetic schools"
I use a C phone and 2 separate lines.. sm
I have DSL and I was not able to have my DSL on the same line as my C phone though now I cannot remember why it did not work. I do know that if it had worked I would not have had a phone to use to call out or receive calls while I was working (which was fine by me.. my family knows to call my cell). At any rate, because of the fact the C phone and DSL did not co-exist I had to use a separate line for my C phone and then my DSL is on another line and that frees up my main phone line for calls in and out.
Are the numbers in a separate column? sm
If yes, go to the Data menu and choose sort, then sort by the letter of the column.
Also fortunate enough to have a separate room. And
s
It doesnt separate. You end up transcribing at
gf
Each 401K is a separate entity. You can have...sm
as many as you want. Sure helps with the taxes!
These are separate reports, called sm
corrections or addendums. We are not even allowed to change any report once it has been sent, and chances are that we are not the original transcriptionists who transcribed it. It is simply a new report.
I don't really mind at all when they say "go back up to History of Present Illness and put this in". It is just part of the job, not a big deal at all.
If it were me, I would have a separate hourly rate that
I would charge for things such as that, and keep a total of the time you spend doing this, but definitely bill them!!
Is it possible to use 2 separate monitors with just one computer?
I'd have two monitors but only one computer. I guess there would have to be somewhere to plug it in...and I only see one place to plug in a monitor but was hoping someone knew of some kind of adapter or a way to get around this? Thanks!!
Medgarde offers PT and just noticed that they ask if you own Lanier.
nm
Obviously, she can or the offers wouldn't be coming out of the woodwork.
I've been turning down offers lately, too.
The place I work already offers 800 numbers for all
inside accounts and most outside accounts as well. Not all are not good to the MTs.
U.S. offers them medical school at a discount
if they remain in the country and practice in out of the way places for a period of time before returning to their country or to a higher wage earning position within the medical establishment.
This is cool...ShortHand offers monthly SM
subscriptions. I have a free trial right now and was worried I wouldn't have the whole $99 after my trial, but I can buy a subscription and save for another month! That's so cool! I didn't know they did that. Didn't know if others knew, so thought I'd share. :)
Chickadee
Have you seen: Internship offers 3cpl on Job Seekers Bd?
Even as an intern, that should be considered criminal. I don't understand what some companies are thinking when they do that sort of thing.
Just a thought.
Bytescribe offers a 14-day trial (DocShuttle).
xx
Stedman's offers 1/4ly now? Didn't know that. Love it anyway! nm
s
I received 2 job offers from posting here just last week.
I agree... lots of flexibility offers
This is not the only field that offers flexibility or work from home status. Congrats on your raise! It's nice to know someone else likes this line of work....
Switch offers free trial so can see if it is what
x
Stedman's offers great discounts, too..
x
Cardioscribes offers insurance and 5 days PTO to their ICs. nm
nm
Transcend bought MDI-FL. MDI-FL and MDI-MD are 2 separate entities. nm
