Self insured
Looking at this as a manager and having worked onsite in a hospital in MT .. it is about their insurance. They are looking at you and calculating how much you will cost them in self insured pay outs. It is certainly not legal and yet, most will never fight it because of the sheer upset it causes a person's self esteem, but in this business it is always about the money!! There are many MTSOs out there who will hire you for your ability and not your bikini figure and be happy to have you. What a rotten shame!
fedex/usps
I have encountered this scenario as there are still "tapes" floating around out there. I have had docs and other professionals send me tapes by FedEx and United States Postal Service (next day) which is considerably cheaper than FedEx, and for security purposes I make sure that the items require a signature, and not that they are simply dropped on my doorstep. And upon return by email, I've used a variety of email programs and file transfers etc. and beyond encryption, you can also leave the patient info off in places where if the files were intercepted, there would be no names or social security numbers. So, while this may seem like an archaic way to still be doing business, not everyone is up to speed with FTPs or using digital recordings that can be more easily transferred. So, it comes to the point where you are just making sure that you and the doctor (or other such client) are doing your very best to keep security at top-notch. I know local transcriptionists who still have "lockboxes" on their doors or mailboxes for tape and document dropoff, and so it's not an entirely digital world yet, so we just have to do the very best we can with security with what we are dealing with. Good luck with your account, and I'm serious USPS (next day) is far cheaper than FedEx and works in most areas for daily deliveries, and will save you and your client a few pennies.

I would just contact UPS, FEDex, Mail Box,
DHL, etc. and get quotes. If they have been in your family, you don't want to let them go. It might cost a little, but would be less trouble and they would be insured should something happen to them.
If Dr. not worried bout sending tapes FedEx,

They usually overnight it. I don't understand about

Your client will not run out overnight
Palleeassee......  If the IC is repeatedly not making an effort to support the contract, then let it go.  Geez............  You can't be beating yourself up about a bad IC.  Just cut your losses.  My goodness, I think you've been burnt too many times. 
$3.19 here too, jumped 20 cents overnight.

I knew someone that did get in debt overnight due
to illness. The bills were higher than any loan would cover and they wanted their money then. In that particular case, BK was the only answer and this person got it in about 1 week before the new law took effect. The individual will be able to purchase a home I believe within 2 years and has already received offers for credit. That was under the old law.

The new law makes you take a course I believe 6 months before you can file. I believe you have to qualify if you want all your bills discharged and they make it harder to get that done, i.e. you have to make a certain income only and anything over that, you have to pay back over time and it is still BK.

With the new law, I would weigh it carefully. Not everyone has emergent medical illness which might necessitate taking this step and it is automatically assumed they mishandled their affairs. This person raised her children alone and just did not have extra money in the bank for bills totaling over $150K. In that case, she was warranted in filing.
I let it dry overnight and plugged it in this morning
and it made crazy noises. I took what I felt comfortable apart and used a blow dryer, but none of the buttons work. It has a dial tone and the face looks normal, but no buttons at all work.

I am in Houston too.

I am so careful with that thing, but my daughter got hurt really bad when she fell on her arm. I was trying to get her to move her arm to make sure it wasn't broken and she started kicking. She hit my glass of water and some got in it before I could catch it.
Do you shut your puter down overnight?
Just curious how many shut completely down at the end of your work day or overnight? Why or why not?
overnight and watches sorry for the typos

Mine is also 3 -1/2, still wears diaper overnight. Help too!
He is a boy. Suggestions? He does not have anything to drink 2-3 hours before bed. I don't know what else to try.
Coretta Scott King passed away overnight....sm

While she was in poor health since having her heart attack and stroke a few months ago it's still sad to see a legend pass away.  I'm sure that her kids fighting over whether or not they should try to get the government to buy the King Center and 2 kids stealing money from the center didn't help any.  


May she rest in peace.

I want my bread crumbs white so I let them dry up in the open overnight (winter brings low humidity)
a very good way not to waste stale bread (aside from pudding).
If it isn't a real high traffic area, sprinkle baking soda on it, leave it overnight,
and vacuum it in the morning. Good luck!
Request that they place a stop payment on the check, reissue, and mail priority or overnight mail
If they refuse or invent unbelievable excuses, you'll know you have a problem. If MY check was a week late, there are many months I would be in deep trouble.
I realize checks occasionally do get lost in the mail. If they are 100% sure it was mailed, then they shouldn't mind issuing another.

Be firm and be persistent.
