I didn't know I need to post EVERY reason I got into MT...Good God! **rolling eyes***
I stand by my posts as well. YES I did say my children, but pardon me for not listing EVERY SINGLE REASON I got into MT. My children are always number one at the top of my priority list as they should be and that's why I mentioned them. And no, I'm having a good day, but I am astounded with the nastiness on these boards. I've never seen such unahppy people. Is this was MT does to a person?
Thanks anyway - It didn't work. Apparently, it might be my headphones. I'm getting new ones

Agree, good post!

Good post. I agree.
I didn't care for his last sentence tho!
I agree. Good post. sm
"I do not understand how medical documentation ever transpired into a production-oriented job. Production WILL have priority over quality when it comes to a paycheck. Why bother looking up terms in reference books or on the internet? That takes a lot of time and can affect an MT's paycheck. "

I agree 100%. Though I remember back in the olden days when I worked in the hospital, some people would work and others would socialize and not work. Maybe this is a backlash of that. But mostly I just think its corporate greed.

Good post. I agree with you.
I think someone mentioned once about the garment industry workers, when they started rising up in the 70's (remember "look for the union label"?), some people thought it was much ado about nothing, others ignored it, but people did not change their spending habits. And now if you want US-made clothes you are in for a real challenge finding them. The winds of change...and it ain't good.
That was a good post! Totally agree.

Bravo! Good post. I totally agree. sm

I too have been in this business for a long time (almost 20 years).  I also have a good friend who is an RN who will ask me questions about certain things that she hasn't read up on because it is not in her field of "expertise". 


If someone I know says something like, "I have this pain that won't go away. . ..", I say, "you need to make an appointment with your doctor.  If someone says the doc put them on a drug and can't pronounce the name, I can give them the correct way to say it.


But in my experience, I can tell (in my areas of expertise) when something is wrong.  I would never say, "I think he has this or that."  I would say, "I really don't like the looks of that and it might need to be looked at by the doctor. Even if I do know from experience what it may be. 


In the case of an NP ignoring the MT's concerns, I find that disturbing.  That seems to say that personal objections are getting in the way, which should never happen in the medical field, regardless of what level you are at, if there is even what may apper to be a valid concern.


 


Apparently so, since there was no name for that post...my, my...
you certainly are one touchy little thing, eh?  I wasn't meaning to reply to you, as obviously you already have all the answers. 
Well I, for one apparently, don't think that's a real good idea.
I definitely don't think you should be checking yourself into a strange motel alone for a week with all that medication on hand, now Oxy, Pherngan and Xanan? You really probably should be under a doctor's supervision, but that's just my opinion. At least you'll be near a hospital. Good luck.
Thanks.I didn't see that info at their site

Saw post on another site..
Lady had same problem, unplugged for a few minutes but it did not work. She finally unplugged it for about 10 min. and it worked fine.
Didn't the post say PT, 15,000? THAT's PT???nm

I didn't think she was being mean about my post.....was she?
I didn't take it that way. 
Didn't know the other post was from you
and I do have a hard time believing $98K in just 30 hours a week, but anything is possible I suppose.
oh. I obviously didn't see the post below before.
I thought it was just like your existential scream for the day or something, heh.


I did post a site, but it was deleted???
I don't get it.
Link didn't post

I didn't get any of what you said from the previous post
I think the poster was just saying that nationals do those things mentioned.  Nowhere was it said in her post that nationals are crooks.  Those are your words and you're trying to put them in her post because she she contradicted your theory. 
Sorry, here it is..it didn't post correctly

Me, too. I was going to post earlier, but didn't
have the energy. I had the twitching thumb first about a year ago, now aches and pains every week that move or migrate all over, too. Numb legs, butt that kills me - seriously, I nearly cry when I sit down or stand up. Then it moves to my neck, or shoulders, and then back to legs. It is horrible pain, and I'm getting really worried that I'm not going to hold up for this job much longer. Its so pathetic - sitting in a chair and falling apart. I was wondering if it could be fibromyalgia-type symptoms. Horrible. You are not alone! I have also bought so many ergonomic things - chair, keyboard, mouse "platform", and forget it. Oh yes, even lighting, and I still am in pain all over the second I sit down in this chair.
You need to reread the post. I didn't say
all the freebies were scams. 
I didn't get your post either Rita.
Did he do the face lift or not?  If he did the face lift and dictated it at a later date and predated the report then that goes on all of the time.  When a doctor fails to dictate then it is is dictated at a later date but the date of the actual service or the study, etc. is performed usually does not change. 
I don't see an email listed on her post. Elsewhere on the site? nm

There is a whole post about that on the MTNews board on this site.

I didn't mention his gender in my post at all
as you so eloquently put, the fact he does not communicate with his patients.

Being an animal doctor hardly qualifies any person or any gender to run a government health program for any person of any gender.

Being smart and trustworthy are only part of what it takes to run such an agency. Maybe a little experience?
Never mind..I didn't see your post answering that sm
very question below.

Mea Culpa.

And sadly, I don't have the Spheris Expander to which you were referring.
duh, sorry, didn't read post below mine. NM

I didn't read your way-too-long post, but...
did you type all that out, or copy and paste from somewhere, cause if you typed it all out...you need to get a life and quick!

I didn't post that but if I had to make a guess...

I would guess the poster meant that newbies always feel they have a high accuracy. 


Don't be offended....if that is what was meant.


Ask your QA or supervisor where you stand.  At least you care !!! 


Didn't post the question but I have the same problem
thanks for a great suggestion.
Two times mine didn't......but I think I saw a post

Sorry. Didn't read your post correctly
I don't use the compile feature, but build my glossaries as I go along. Never cared for the results I got with compiling.
ooops - SORRY! I didn't relize my first post
my apologies!
I agree. This site is a ton better than
some other sites when it comes to rudeness, etc. This place rocks in comparison. I would name the place, but I will not. Anyway, this place is a lot more supportive and the posters here are great, but they cannot be that forever:) Move on.
I agree, but I must say, this is the best run site and

re: post about internal clock, there is a web site address
given to us by our MT leader. I've never tried it, but it's supposed to keep the clock in sync. The addresss is www.clock-sync.com/help.html.  This may help you with your problem.
That is an interesting site. Thanks for taking time to post it--nm

Actually, you are incorrect. People post their feelings on this site
to having to register and give their personal information, IP address, etc. Be pro-AAMT. I choose not to and that is my right. No whining, no complaining...I am just one of those American MTs who doesn't see AAMT as glorious as you do. Also an Old MT.
No use Olympus recorders and post to ftp site-- all automatically
very little investment required in equipment. Just recorder and software. Why duplicate the Internet when it is free?
She didn't put any names or even employment locations with her post --
she simply listed errors she sees. I would keep a list as well; could be very useful in training new MTs or orienting even experienced MTs about what they have had in the past, how easy it is for one to just "type what they hear" and not pay attention, etc.

She didn't do anything wrong.
Hey, no problem. I didn't post a name or initials, so you probably wouldn't have known it was
