EVOLVE AND CONSULTING
Posted By: jnmd on 2009-06-05
In Reply to: You have to consult on something you KNOW about. - Fingers
Let me make myself perfectly clear here. I AM NOT consulting here, as I stated, if you read anything! You are absolutely right with the evolve on their own, which is exactly why YOU are where YOU are. YOU let them evolve on their own. I am not here for any war, as I also stated above. Your wish for reaching rock bottom.... well there you have it. Why you would wish for that is beyond me, but to each their own. There is another old saying I will quote here "IF YOU ARE NOT PART OF THE SOLUTION, YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM"! If I were an MT, I would not be wishing for rock bottom, I would be doing something to lift my industry to where it belongs and the pay and benefits I deserve.

We have evolve with the technology. MT will simply become ME (medical editors).
What doctor's don't know is that speech recognition still requires A LOT of editing from a Transcriptionist in order for their report to be chart-ready. If we let reports go as they are straight out of the SR software... it just isn't going to happen.
I do strictly SR editing and there is a ton of editing that has to be done to each and every report. There will still be plenty of work, it just depends on how adaptable we can become. Of course, we will have to fight for a decent wage because the natural instinct of management is to want to pay us less, because in their minds we aren't working as hard if we don't have to type every single character in a report. Nevermind the knowledge base we have... but that's a discussion for the future. 
which CEO? the new one, the old one or the consulting one?
The never ending revolving door of CEOs and managers at MQ. Can't hit a moving target is their motto.
You're right about consulting an ENT (or 2). sm
I failed to mention that in my earlier post about my 14-year-old son having his out. (He too was miserable for about 2 weeks).
He has seen an ENT on a regular basis since he was little (other problems with ears, etc.) and the ENT finally said they should come out. We got a second ENT opinion as well before the procedure was done.
consulting expert
does anyone know of where I can find or how I can go about looking for a consulting person to help me out with trying to get local accounts and what I need and should do such as contract, how to go about charging the client, what software is needed and the ins and outs of various ways of getting the work back to the client? any information would be so greatly appreciated. I just need pointed in the right direction.
Or can somone give me advice as to what they did to get up and running?
Have a beautiful day!
Consulting dr. doesnt say but says he thinks

You're the transcriptionist, not the consulting physician.
I know it is difficult sometimes but he went to school a bit longer than you or I did!
response to your insulting post on consulting
Wanting to start out with a consultant is called being prepared and nothing to do with my capabiilty of handling a business. both are very two different entitities. Its like operating any other business to get started. If it was not true there would not be any consultants out there. both of you might have started 20 years by the sounds of your posts and it sounds like you might have hit it lucky getting by without contracts. I would rather be safe than sorry but more power to you. I guess it makes you feel "superior."
For QA consulting I'm paid per hour; QA instructing (college) paid salary, QA editing paid per li
I am an IC and work for two different MTSOs as well as instruct at a business college.
