Avon
There are many postings if you look through the forums. I certainly didn't intend to offend you. Enjoy your afternoon.
How about selling Avon?
x
Gift of gab is a gift in deed. Not having it has cost me dearly.
I became an MT because of my interest in medical field, fascination with the work and yes, a lack of social skills. I really did think that my work would speak for me.
Anybody try Avon's Instant Manicure yet?nm
x
Anybody tried Avon's new Anew night/day product? sm
I think it's called Anew Intensive. I'm hearing a lot of good stuff about it and when my mom tried to order it for me, there was a waiting list...
I sell Avon, have the samples, and haven't even tried it yet!
Master of none! LOL!
I use the facial hair remover from Avon. sm
I'm allergic to Nair but I can use the Avon hair removal products. It lasts about a month and no skin irritation.
This is how it is in Arizona
Welcome to an Arizona summer-- the electric meter spins itself off the pole and the utility companies dance with glee. My AC went out a week ago (naturally on the weekend) and it was over 90 degrees in the house with the swamp cooler going full blast. Come on, move to Arizona everybody----. The Chamber of Commerce doesn't tell you about THIS part!
Don't come to Arizona
It is the same here-- and all the Calif. people ARE moving here-- making it that much worse. I want to get out of here, too.
YES IN ARIZONA
Yes
I never got my certificate
My pedal never materialized either,but I did get a reimbursement for that. I finished going on two years ago and never got it. Seems to me things are going down hill.
IF you paid by credit card, you can call them and try to get it credited back so you will at least have your money. I would keep calling them...every day if you have to.
If you have a certificate in MT, sm
Be careful stating you have a "certificate" in MT. There is a certification through AAMT (or whatever their new name is) but it is vastly different from a certificate from a school. I'm assuming you mean you received a certificate upon completion of an MT course of some kind, as the CMT requires a certain amount of experience, I believe (and a CMT would not have trouble finding work). If that's the case, have you asked the school about job placement assistance? If they are a reputable school, they should know employers that will hire their graduates and help you find work.
I would advise AGAINST getting your own accounts. Not only is there a lot to learn about running the business side of it, you will be completely on your own and there will not be much communication or hand-holding from the doctors or their staff. Many doctors will not look twice at someone without experience, either. If you go out there marketing for your own accounts, then the doctors are going to expect you to have all the equipment necessary, be well trained, well educated, and able to produce client-ready documents without assistance on their part. They will expect you to be current on any technology they wish to use. That is why they outsource MT - so they don't have to spend time and money training someone or furnishing equipment, etc. If you do work for local doctors and cannot provide all of that, it could do more damage to your reputation than good. Most docs know each other and talk. That word of mouth is crucial and can make or break you. I'm sorry, but my honest opinion is that a newbie cannot possibly provide the superior service most offices desire because they don't know what it is just yet. If it was as easy as just "working hard," everyone would be doing it, after all. There are a lot of services and individuals out there competing for the doctors' work, so you have to be able to provide better quality and service than they do.
Oh, and also, a lot of private practice doctors are far pickier than you might think. They often actually read their reports before signing them (especially when you are new to them), refer to the reports often in their charts, and expect them to be up to par. If they see a lot of typos or errors, they will cut you loose and move on to the next service looking to earn their work. Who do you think sets forth the specifications that many of the companies you have already spoken to or tested with? Probably their clients!
Now, is it possible you might find some doctor out there willing to give it a shot? Yes. But just because doctors in one town haven't heard of the BOS, that doesn't mean others have not. Did your MT course not go over BOS rules? If BOS rules are what you are having trouble with and want to avoid, then I suggest getting a copy of the current BOS, studying it, and learning it so future testing is excellent. If you test well with a company even without experience, they'd be foolish not to at least take a second look. If you lack experience and don't test well, what incentive do they have to hire? There are a LOT of good MTs looking for work right now, so you have to make yourself stand out above the rest.
If you feel your schooling was inadequate, look into supplemental training at one of the online MT schools that have been approved by the AAMT. Those are the schools that prepare their graduates well enough to get work right out of school and for which companies will often waive experience requirements.
Arizona fires
You all have probably seen the horrible Arizona fires on TV. I can see the smoke and flames from my house-- and could be in its path if the wind changes. There is a meeting at the high school tonight regarding fire info. Even though I am SO tired of doing transcription, I would much rather be home doing it than attending a fire meeting-- .

I am not getting my certificate for monetary
reasons. Its for me and my professional pride, which means a lot to me. As for the $$ end, I have been interviewing at several companies, and all did pay, on average, 1 cpl more for CMT. That's quite a differential to me! But I'm staying with my regular job, which does not pay a differential. Its just something I want to achieve in my career.
I'm not talking about a certificate that says you

certification v. certificate
CMT= certified medical transcriptionist.
MTs with 2+ years of acute care experience who pass a test given by the American Association for Medical Transcription (AAMT)are CMTs. They also need to prove they have accumulated a certain amount of continuing education credits every three years in order to maintain the certification. HTH.
Where'd you get that certificate? Just curious. NM
