Here in North Carolina they get to operate a motor vehicle at age 15 when accompanied by

a licensed driver.  No, they do not state WHO has to be the licensed driver (i.e. friend, neighbor, etc) or how long the licensed driver needs to be licensed, but at 14.5 years they start driver's education in the schools!  It is ridiculous to me, as they are children operating a very dangerous toy and I pray they up the age before my children reach it, as I do not feel children possess the maturity and forethought to drive at such a young age.

Please calm down. Minor MRI findings are usually accompanied by (sm)
the message, "Correlate with clinical history." Radiologists don't know the patient' history in detail. They are often noting findings that can't be interpreted without knowing the patient. That's why radiologists will so rarely talk to patients; they aren't your doctor and aren't able to match findings with symptoms and clinical findings. I suspect, but can't know, that your MRI is perfectly normal ... FOR YOU. Let your MD mull it all over. If he/she is not certain, he'll send you to a specialist.
Of course you may get the motor-mouths. Not good

OPERATE ON THE TAPES!
May sound silly but I did this a couple of times - to which was greatly appreciated by the doctor who would have had to redictate!

I just chipped hole in cassette where the tape passes through to the spool, put a tiny piece of scotch tape on the end of the tape, tapped it down onto the spool and carefully rewound the tape onto the spool. And of course threw out the tape when done transcribing it...

Since this is happening to you a lot though, a better solution would be to tell the docs NOT to dictate to the end of the spool, but of course that would REQUIRE COOPERATION on the part of the dictator, so probably nevermind. :)
MDI-FL was bought by Transcend, but they still operate

ISP is DOWN!!! Dial up modem is too slow to operate

Well, this is really something.  For the first time since being at home, Comcast is down. 


Dial up modem is too slow to register my keystrokes and I get kicked off the hospital's system (which is 3,000 miles away).  


I do believe, after experiencing this, that technology is going to be the determining factor in outsourcing.  I used dial up modem for a clinic when with MQ but it was only a few hundred miles away from me and worked just fine.  Could it be that the farther away you are from your account, the less optimal dial up modem operation is?


Can you imagine what would happen if all accts were linked to a foreign country and the server went down? 


This event led to a 911 emergency as I was only MT on my acct scheduled to work today.  I am actually shaking as I know  how important it is to get the radiology work done in two hours.


Just had to share this with you guys. 


They operate under the guise of the All American Company
With seminars for management, cheering, singing, praising the American way when in actually, they are going to suck every dime out of the pockets of this country, steal jobs and leave us without an income to pay for their products.

They are EVIL!!
I operate the joystick with my foot if it is on the floor...
If I am reclined, then I can still do it with my feet by placing the controller between both feet and using either to hit the joystick.  I personally do not use rewind or fast forward ( I just use the auto backspace), but you can use the other buttons on the controller as fast forward and rewind.

And to Cam Ward...amazing young man.
OMG! Footpedal will not operate. Winscribe. I can hear dictation

when I click on the arrow for "play" but my pedal is not registering.  Tried a different pedal and the same thing!  Have a call into the Help desk but I am panicking! 


Anyone have any idea would could possibly be wrong????  I have very rarely had foot pedal problems. 


If the vehicle has been totalled (sm)
by an insurance company it will have a salvage title, so those will have evidence that the vehicle was totalled. I have heard of auto salvage companies using creative measures to disguise the real damage to the vehicle (like pounding the body with a hammer to simulate hail) leading the buyer to believe there is only body damage. We bought a submarine once and it was the best deal we ever made, a year old full sized fully loaded truck for less than half price. It was river water though and only 3 weeks after the flood. The only problem with it was the cruise control didn't work! Anything out of LA or MS at this stage probably already has rust.
I'm wondering now if you use a vehicle...
for easier application or do you just use straight water? I got quite a bit of the powder in my eyes, etc. I'm sure I could get used to this and even improve my technique over time, but I just wondered. I've read about using just about anything from honey to soap to apply it. BTW, my pores look better after 1 use. Thanks!
Hybrid Vehicle

 Yes, I love my Insight.  It is 2001, never had any problems and has 50 to 60 miles per gallon of gas usage!  When I purchased this one, I received a 15% off the top for the 21K cost of the car on federal taxes.  I could never go to a regular car again. 


The best part is:  the mileage is even more because the engine shuts off at a stop sign or when in road rage traffic.  This would prove to be even better mileage since all other automobiles are steadily burning while this Insight is completely off.  Of course you can adjust if you really need air conditioning.  It came with auto everything:  windows, transmission and power brakes and steering.


 


leasing vehicle - sm
Thanks for all the reponses, honest and otherwise. You all basically told me what I felt inside - the only one who makes out on a lease is the dealer. Thanks again.
leasing vehicle
If you travel 12-15,000 miles or less and do not want to worry about repairs, etc, and know you want to drive a newer vehicle always - having a payment always, leasing is good. I leased for a while and it was fine, but then started putting on a lot more miles. So now I buy my vehicle and drive until it dies. Matter of opinion.
accustat emr (carolina)
they don't pay properly. aside from the cheap pay. you might just waste your time and money.
It's amazing we let people operate on us who cannot put two words together to make a sentence.

sorry...that was United Transcription in No. Carolina. nm

I would think that owning a vehicle with low miles is a plus - sm
at the end of that 5 years you own the vehicle, versus leasing you don't; and you would owe a huge chunk if you choose to buy it. After 5 years of paying a car off with low miles, you can choose to re-sell and get a better price because of the low miles (big selling point). So whoever fed you the line above is, I think, totally off the mark (or trying to lease you a car).

Husband bought a vehicle, in his name,
husband died. Money still owed on the car. I did not want, was not responsible for HIS bill and nothing they could do. Told them sitting in my backyard, come and get it. I did not own, had not signed my John Henry on it, so glad. Could be similar if you are not signed on the house.
anyone have personal experience with leasing a vehicle
I've never owned a car, end up upside down on the loan, owe old loan on top of new loan, and own it for so long it starts to tinker and I pay for repair on top of the loan.  What is the downside of leasing?  I heard you sometimes have to pay, but only if you drive over the limited mileage right?  Working at home, that saves mileage on commute which makes up 70% of it I would suppose.  Plus being new it won't nickle and dime me to death with repairs, low payment because you only pay for the amount of money it would depreciate for the time you own it.  Any personal experience with this, and is there red tape or hidden small print?  Going to start looking really soon, I only hear bad things but its from people who drive a lot.  I think a new car is a necessity in this day and age, with all the swindling mechanics and the dependence to get from here to there.  A new different car every three years doesnt sound so bad either.
Anyone lease their vehicle? Need pros and cons please - sm
Am considering trading vehicle, and was advised because of the low miles I put on vehicles (under 25,000 miles in 5 years), that I would be better off leasing than buying.  Would appreciate any and all thoughts and things to watch out for when leasing from those of you that have gone this route.  TIA.
It's a form for vehicle accidents. It looks funny without

the caps, but I am not sure of this grammar rule. 


TIA~


 


I wasn't offered 8-1/2 cpl w/United out of So.Carolina - much lower. TransTech and DSG

leasing in like renting - paying someone else for the privilige of driving their vehicle..sm
with the low mileage you put on vehicles, you would have an easy time selling outright to a third party. Crunch the numbers.  figure out what you would pay for leasing, including deposit. Figure out what you could buy that same car for. If you hold it for 5 years, you can get an idea of how much cars depreciate by checking blue book prices on the current model and a 5 year model. Use that to figure what percent it would depreciate. Then add your leasing costs all together. Add your car payments all together.  Then subtract from the car payment what your car would be worth in 5 years, because you'll get that back, ya know. IMHO leasing is done by people too lazy to figure out the numbers and by people that it's important to "look good" to the neighbors, regardless of what your bank account actually holds. Hope you don't mind my honesty.

By the way...I worked a 12 hour shift today. I really don't need the correction on my spelling. I realize I hit the 'n' instead of the 'm'. I'm done now...this is dumb.
Me, too! We're in north Fla so
still haven't had the worst yet.  Can you believe it is starting this early?  This is getting pretty old!!   I guess this one shouldn't be to bad though (hopefully).  Stay safe!!
No, I'm in the north (Michigan) and (sm)
really don't have any at this time, either; I've only had a couple of accounts over the years where there were lots of drawls, I think one was a V.A. in S. Carolina. I think now they've probably all been replaced by ESLs!
North Alabama Transcriptionists
Are there any hospitals based in North Alabama who use at-home Radiology Transcriptionists?
Any North Alabama Transcriptionists?
I posted on the state board, but I don't think many people go to that board.  I was just wondering if there any home-based transcriptionists near me.  Thank you for your time.

North Myrtle Beach
Having lived at Pawley's Island - this is some really pretty country.  Get out of the car at the Myrtle Beach Sign in the middle of the highway for some photo ops.  Also, for those of you traveling to North Myrtle Beach - please make a short trip (30 minutes with no traffic) down to Pawley's Island and see the Brookgreen Gardens and Hunnington Beach.  There are also a lot of "real" little shops at Pawley's Island with real treasures to find - not cheap souvenier stuff.  You can watch the weavers make the Original Pawley's Island Hammacks.  I know that you are all probably going for either the beach or the golf, but beware that the sewage drains into the ocean up on the Grand Strand and there is usually a daily feces report - so if it is high - don't go into the water.  I hope that ya'll have a great time.  If you get the chance - try some Shrimp and Grits, frogmore stew and some of the other low country delicacies.  You will have a blast.  Remember hurricane insurance, too - in case one is headed that way and you don't want to lose your money on your flight and accommodations.

Read up some more. They use this term WIDELY in Asia...go figure! Don't know about you but I'm a bit sick of the politically correct crap going on in this country. I will side with the first dictionary - that it is grammatically correct albeit politically incorrect, because like who cares? I sure don't. : D
Yep, a hospital north of the river.
I'll email you the name.
Would love too, but I am in North Wilmington sm
and can't afford the time away from my account this time of year. Would love to take you up on it in the summer time. Spring is just so busy for me.
