Your best bet is your local Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield company, depending on where you live

Here in Idaho, we have both companies but a lot of other states have BC/BS combined. Our family has a policy through Regence Blue Shield that is $196 for my husband and three kids. It has a $25 office copay and it is a limited policy, which is 12 office visits a year and lab up to $300. It works great for us because we never got to the doctor, yet we have it if we need it.


I have an individual policy for major medical, $35 office copay, with our local Blue Cross and it is $59 a month for me and it has prescription coverage too. Not a bad deal. I think they are your best bet for decent coverage at a good price.


Blue Cross/Blue Shield or Mutual of Omaha - Which company pays off claims the best w/o hassle?

Have you tried placing your keyboard in neutral (flat) position? (nm)

I would say as long as hubby is neutral, let here decide - she could always just not go up to casket
if she does go.  My DH never does either.   Everyone just has to deal with it in their own way.
My comfort keyboard does. I type in the neutral, "handshake"

I would tell them to pack sand
With an attitude from a doctor like that, I would refuse to do his work. There is plenty of other work out there, and there are plenty of other MTs out there. I'm sure the doctor could find someone willing to put up with his crap and I could find someone willing to show some courtesy and respect for my time. Again, I admit I am living under a rock, but I just don't see why it has to be so difficult, and why we should have to put up with so much nonsense. We are all human beings, allegedly on the same team, so why can't we work together? Is it a power struggle? If it is, I'll lose becuase I don't need to be the bigger person; I need to be able to understand the dictator so I can transcribe the report.
LOL it's POUND sand... nm

head in the sand conservatives
and...these head in the sand conservative neocons dont know what they are talking about when they want to blame the victim and her family.  Figures, the ones who say they are compassionate christians blaming the victim.  Thank God for liberals, the ones who see the forest for the trees.
does anyone know if bone cancer is always..sm
metastatic or can cancer originate in the bone? 
Here's a bone for you to chew on...
Just because a vet recommends something doesn't make it "safe" or acceptable... MANY vets recommend pig ears and other crapola like rawhide which is TERRIBLE for dogs. There are plenty of vets who know better on both of these "recommends"

As to where they can be bought, are you KIDDING? Since when have you known giant corporations that make money to CARE about whether or not a product is safe for animals OR humans?

Sure they care - to the point they won't be sued... but an UNeducated consumer is their BEST customer.

And by the way dogs don't "hate" per se... they FEAR. That said, if you think for a New York second your dog *likes* the collar, you are fooling yourself.

If you are SO SURE they aren't abuse, put the darn collar on and shock yourself. IF you still think it's just a fine way to treat an ANIMAL THAT HAS NO CONTROL over whether or not it has to wear a collar that causes *any amount* of pain, just keep on using and ABUSING your dog.

I hope you raise holy sand! nm

What is your problem?!! You can stay with your head in the sand, or sm
you can check the world around you and do better for yourself.

Anytime anyone says good things on this board, they are shot down with negativity.

Personally, it is fair to say an MT or Editor can charge anything price they want if the client will pay it.

What part of this do you have a problem with?

This response was to the Shocking Math response. Why are you so doubtful all of the time?

coneyisland girl - get your head out of the sand - look around you =
there are parts of this country that are not too far off from that! For god sakes, take a trip to Harlem. Take a look at some of the inner cities in THIS country (remember, the one you work and live in). Take a look at some of the Indian reservations across the country (excluding the whole casino crap stuff) and take a look at some of the small towns, like the ones in Ohio, where people are standing on line just to get food donations because the companies outsourced the only jobs in their towns!!

I cannot believe that the government gives these Indians $600,000 to start a business and does not give the US hardly anything to start a business! Please, I beg of you, do not tell us to pity third world countries. Believe me, President Bush is making sure that they get our jobs and all our business opportunities. So 10 years from now, we will be a third world country.

I'm so upset and hurt by your post that I have to get off this site for awhile.

Dont believe her, she has a bone to pick and ....
does the same cut and paste over and over again, it gets rather boring.
It can originate in the bone, as in sarcoma

HEY, Throw this poor dog a bone?

I am a "newbie", been looking for MT opportunity with no luck.  I would gladly take one of the jobs you didn't like, just for the experience......


At this time, I would just like a job doing Mt but beginning to think this was a mistake.....definitely must not be the same as it used to be.....


Not heartless...just a bully who likes to kick sand
Please....there is no justification for your behavior, don't try to come here and defend your disgusting behavior.  This woman is crying out for real help...not some quick, off the cuff, hurtful remark.  I feel sorry for you. 
My head is not in the sand - I am a very wise and "shrewd" individual
as far as jobs go. You are entitled to your opinion; however, Dictaphone is not the best VR software out there. I work on the best, and believe me, the hospitals will need MT/editors for a long time. Maybe not 30 years, but I make enough money to put at least 4K away a month, so by the time I can retire, I will have a hefty savings account to live on.

I am getting while the getting is good!

Good luck with your nursing career!
one time this happened with a chicken bone....

One time I had a fast food chicken sandwich (decades ago) and it felt like a tiny bone was stuck in a manner which you described.  The store gave me a piece of soft white bread which immediately cleared the problem.  Just thought I'd share that, just in a possible future case........


Glad you're feeling better from the event.....


 


We have a gunite pool as opposed to vinyl/sand liner..
The gunite is definitely more expensive, but lasts much longer.  I'm in NH and I see signs for gunite pools starting at 19,900 around here, but I have no idea what that includes. As usual, the advertisement and the actual cost out the door are probably too different things.  Also, expect your electric bill to hit the roof even if you run the filter only 12 hrs out of 24.  But it's worth it to us... Our kids are pre-teens and virtually LIVE in that thing, so we don't regret buying this house.
I would never let a bone cruncher touch me. I used to work for chiropractors
and have seen the damage they can do.  Personally, my choice is going to my wonderful acupuncturist.  She is a chinese physician who performs a combination of acupuncture, magnetic heat, massage, and herbal application.  Folks, acupuncture WORKS wonderfully for the treatment of sciatica and acupuncture has been performed in China for thousands of years successfully, so they must have been doing something right.  One suggestion, make sure you find a GOOD acupuncturist.  Believe me, you will know when you've found a good one.  Good luck!
Not worth it if you work your fingers to the bone and then never get paid
Good luck
From one who worked for MQ nearly 18 years, no matter was MQ bone they throw out, I know with a full
Always has been, always will be.
Glad I'm not the only one.. My kids have had cystic fibrosis, leukemia, mono, and bone cancer.

You need more color
It sounds like your furniture is from the earth tone family which means your walls should have color. Carpeting is an accessory, like a hand bag, I wouldn't work around IT, make IT work around you. I WOULD NOT paint the walls tan, that would make it BLAH BLAH BLAH. Go with a color in the blue family, very pale, sky blue. OR, you can do what I did. I had boring tan walls, I bought a "sponge" roller and rolled a light yellow over the tan. With a sponge roller, you can create shape and dimensions. That way, the white peaks through the light blue, giving it a "sky" affect: this allows you to keep in line with the "earth" colors and in the "blue" family. Hope that helps.
color?

i am soon to be married, for the first time even tho "past 35," and am very happy. i am having 4 junior bridesmaids and the ONLY rule i have for them -- they can pick out whatever dresses they love and that make them feel like princesses -- is that there be NO BLACK in the dresses whatsoever.  It's going to be a mid-day, outdoor wedding, plus i feel there's a little bit of jinx factor if black is involved. 


But as far as guests?  black is just fine; what is more beautiful than the little black dress?   go for it!  just my opinion.


color?
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding...it sounds beautiful and how nice of you to let the girls pick out what makes them feel special

well, thank you, thank you very much!  my happiness overflows and you must have caught a trickle of it ....weddings are such "contagiously happy" events. 
Hair color
I use Balsam (its a greenish box), the cheapest I've found, about 2.97 at WalMart. I use it every 3-4 weeks, and it covers as well (sometimes better) than the salon colors do. I'm a big believer in pampering myself, and TRY to do it often (lately, I've been failing miserably LOL).

The first time or two you might have to just see if it works, and it might take a couple of times (no matter which color or which brand) to completely cover. If you want a 'frosted' look, get a frosting cap and add color to the pulled through hair, makes a great effect. If you don't like it, just color over it :)
I always do OTC hair color.
Colorsilk works really well for me, I like all the Loreal products best. Someone else mentioned Balsom or something (greenish box), this made my hair feel like straw. That shows you that different things work for different people. If you decide to try it yourself, do the pre-testing to make sure it will work for you. That way you don't end up with a whole ruined head of hair. Just clip a small lock from somewhere where it won't be noticed and test first to make sure. Best of luck.
No, no color change! nm

screen color
Is that the color the company you work for gave you? Tech support should be able to change it for you. Mine is blue with white print. Much easier on the eyes. I had one where the preview page was yellow, gosh awful yellow!
Background color
How do you change the background color. I want a blue background and blue text??? 
Ahh, that's a horse of a different color then.
I would make it clear if you type it, they pay for it unless they can give you specifics about which patients have already been typed.

Blue ?

 HELP.  Has anybody heard of, or used a transcription platform called "Blue".....  (something...don't know what...).   I heard  somewhere(?) about this  "Blue..." system and apparently it's supposed to be super ?!!   Anybody have a clue?  .   TY in advance. 


Yes, I have the blue W and
I have typed a few reports using these steps and it does report, and no one is complaining about format so I guess it works.  Thanks a bunch for your help.

desertbloom color question
I did hair for many years. Do not use Loreal or Clairol. There are tone on tone colors and without a filler the color will 1)not be even and 2) wash out into a odd color. Depending on the color you want I would go to a beauty supply store or a beauty college if one is close by (they are students, but they are supervised), and have a clear filler put on first (20 minutes to slightly damp hair) this will fill in the porous parts and open the cuticle allowing the color to get in, and then have the consultant at the beauty supply or school help with your desired color. You can also use a tempory rinse out color Roux Fanci-Full colors. They wash out when you sampoo, but always remember this, anytime you start with white or light blood hair anything you use may leave some color behind. Hope this helps. Any questions let me know.
I open it so it changes the color and I know I've seen the msg nm :)

Its their house and should be able to paint it whatever color they want
Come on. Just because it doesnt suit you,doesnt mean they shouldnt do something. They paid money and worked their tail off to pay for it, they should be free to do what they want with it.

I thought that was what America was all about.

Geez
I got a print out with color photos of my
colonoscopy integrated into the dictation.  It's already here in the US

Escription background color? HELP! sm

How can I change the background color on Escription?  I'm running it with MS Office 2003 if that helps/makes a difference.  The white is causing some serious eye strain and by the end of my shift my eyes are burning and I have a headache.  If I can change it to a different/duller color it might helpl. 


 


THANKS!


Osteo refers to bone. Ostial refers to a narrowing of an artery.

I'd give anything for blue!

My carpeting is pink, not rose, but pink.  Apparently the previous owners to the person we bought our house from also had a pink stove and pink refrigerator with horrid looking kitchen wallpaper with big pink roses on it.


If that's not bad enough my bathroom is purple.  Lilacs on the wallpaper, purple tub, flush and sink. My daughter used to call it the "Barney bathroom."


Great neighborhood though.

what do the sad looking blue smiley faces mean beside some of the threads? 
The blue lines don't mean anything on the (sm)

Did you try right clicking on the blue bar?
There should be a place to check for an address bar.
