I've done the same thing, Snow Bunny - sm

I get a copy of MY MEDICAL records no matter where I go and check the transcription, and I will absolutely positively make corrections on them and return them to the doc/office/hospital in person and let them know that if I were looking for a lawsuit and money, this is where I would start, with my medical records! I then ask for a corrected medical report.

? For Snow Bunny
Somewhere on the board, I read that you mentioned a website www.productivity.com. I keyed that in and good a website for some kind of tool manufacturer.  Could you double check the addy for the website - I can use all the help I can get to get my counts up. 
SNOW BUNNY NEED YOUR
help. Now have involuntary jerking of hands and will be typing and hands just collapse downward. Is there a program that we can talk into and it will type the words for us? Please send me an email if you know of such a thing.
Snow Bunny - yes!
All the great classics! You ROCK, Mellencamp or not!
Snow Bunny
I am not on a high horse and I have no idea how on earth why you are so angry that I am happy to have a job for the rest of my working life. My post was merely made to share with others who have not experienced VR yet that it is nothing to be afraid of. Your tirade is completely inappropriate and off the mark.
I work in a very large teaching and research hospital where they dictate over the phone lines - they don't have the time to customize the VR and what we get in this hospital probably isn't as clean as what you get from a clinic or a hospital with a more stable dictating population.
I enjoy doing it and it entertains me to see how the computer prints out things phonetically.
You should consider another user name - bunnies are nice and snuggly - might I suggest Rabid Rabbit?
Okay, I think I know what snow bunny is saying
It doesn't seem like all opinions are welcome. Someone protested about the fact they do not celebrate Christmas, and then we are bombarded with Merry Christmas all over the place..obviously trying to "stir things up." Last week someone posted the word "God" in a non-religious tone, someone complained, and then someone posted "God" to try to stir things up, then that one gets erased. Why are you picking and choosing, I know you're the owner, but as the owner aren't you supposed to be neutral?
Snow Bunny-I need you....
would you please email me? i was wondering if you could help me with dns, i have questions about dns and working in templates.  it seems that you've had great luck with this product so i was hoping that you might know how to guide me. TIA!!!!
Snow bunny is the one to ask on this - sm
she uses it and swears by it, but I know she stresss training and a good mic. I have the DVR Medical V.8, but I have been too lazy to train it and use it consistently. Plus I am not sure it would work for me except for a few doctors I do as I would have to do a lot of copy and pasting if I used it (use WP5.1) in WP11. My WP5.1 macros don't work in the WP format even in the blue window which stinks. If I could use them I would use it in a heart beat as I think it would be faster for me in the long run, but this is beside the point. If you do decide to try it buy the right one, the medical one is what you would want. I got mine on ebay for abour $300 (which I resold), then bought the upgrade for $150. So I spent about $200 for my whole set up. So you can buy it relatively cheaply if you look. Good luck.
thanks so much snow bunny-
Thanks Snow Bunny, I'll do that
And yes I do use an ergonomic keyboard, but it just seems the longer I do this, the less I can get done in a day because I can hardly type after 5-6 hours.
yes, Snow Bunny, I don't have a clue what
your point is. Explain, please.
Me too. Snow Bunny turned me on to it. I use it every day. nm
s
Absolutely correct! Snow Bunny is right! nm

agree wtih snow bunny
Agree with snow bunny. It should be made into two sentences, thereby avoiding the use of "who" later in the sentence, which BTW, should be WHOM.
question for Snow Bunny...how long would you say
an average MT (15 years exp) would take to learn to do what you do, and still work enough to make money without losing any until up to where you are now...
Thanks, as always, for you input!
Quite frankly I am surprised at Snow Bunny
You have been on these boards long enough to know better. I am very surprised you would say such things in the manner you did. I always held you in such respect. Goes to show, you never really know someone.
Hey Snow Bunny, did you get through the storms okay on Sunday? sm
I hope you and your family are okay.
Have you tried the Custom Biz Saver package Snow Bunny? sm
It's through AT&T and it's a business plan. C-phones were supported. I used it for a Lanier when I was IC and I was on it a lot, sometimes 10 hours a day. I had unlimited long distance and never had the problems you are having. Problem is you need to sign a contract for 1 year but even with that it was only $10.00 a month more than a residential line.
Read the archives for extensive posts by snow bunny.
No offense intended, but you probably won't get any new posts on the topic as it's already been discussed in great detail. I just wanted you to know you're not being ignored. Good luck with it! I hope you feel better soon.
Thanks Snow Bunny. Good advice too. Hopefully, with the oil and possibly the Lindane, will eradica

My sink is the only thing I've sm
been able to keep clean. I just can't get back on track. I do MT out of the house 35 hours and do MT part time from home. I really have trouble with piles of papers. I was just reading Flylady's answer to that, keep no paper, so I will have to work on that.
Just wondering how many many MTs follow flylady. Thanks for answering.
By the way, flybabies are followers of flylady.net a really good system to get organized (when you apply it Ü). Sm is see message and NM is no message so you don't waste time opening an empty post.
one thing you've all missed here . . .
. . . WHOM I refer . . .
sorry, I just can't resist correcting Enlgish grammar.
might I also iterate that sentence structure may only be altered when your account is NOT verbatim.
You've done the smartest thing by
reaching out for help here. I encourage you to continue to do so. Make ample use of the word "no" to any unreasonable demands, and even if you just feel like it sometimes. Finally, please don't buy into the holiday hype and BS the retailers try to feed you. Blessings to you and your family.
That is the most bizarre thing I've ever seen.
I can't imagine doing transcription with one of those.
One more thing, I've been in MT and QA long enough to know that just
feel like you had no trouble with the terminology, doesn't mean you didn't have trouble.
I have come across many MTs who believe they know what they are doing and really don't.
I've had exactly the same thing happen, where (sm)
the doc jumped around in the report, asking you to insert things here and there, and just ASSUMING that you had the correct template and/or adequate samples in front of you, and that you could read their minds.
That's the silliest thing I've...
ever seen in my life. They've got to be kidding. Just my opinion. Anxious to hear others.
It was helpful for me, Sheesh. I've done the right thing and
I sincerely hope that others will as well.
It doesn't matter whether or not we agree but the language used and the intent demonstrated. That is what I was talking about.
I fully realize that there will be people who cannot leave a good thing alone. I feel sorry for those individuals. They apparently have no peace, no satisfaction, and no friendliness in their lives. They only know how to destroy, or to attempt to.
I'm going to demonstrate what I want back from others - positivity, compassion, forgiveness, tolerance - whether or not I receive that from you or anyone else. If you do not return to me the same as I have offered, then that is between you and your own soul. :)
I appreciate your point of view; I just don't share it.
I hope everyone has a good evening tonight and a productive day tomorrow! I can't believe summer is almost over with and school starts back soon. Rather funny to me, my son has griped all summer about nothing to do (despite a part-time job, camping trips, Disneyland trip, youth events, etc.) and now that school is coming back around he feels "stressed" because there's not enough time to do all he wants to do! Hahahaha
There's one thing that I've seen stop many many people....
A heart attack or cancer. My father-in-law SWORE he could not quit not matter what, but had a coronary and that was his last cigarette. My own father quit cold turkey after 3+ packs a day when he began coughing so hard he couldn't catch his breath. I've also known people who had a cancer scare and were able to quit. If nothing else, FEAR will do it. Unfortunately, waiting for the fear might be too late for many.
Yep, sure do. They've sucked up to the Trinidad thing, just like some other
companies we know. They use a platform and it's a system where they use common MTs, and those common MTs are in Trinidad. It APPEARS as though they don't outsource offshore, but in reality, they do.
funny thing...this is my spare I've never used. sm
I just pulled it off the shelf to let a friend borrow it. I figured it may just be dusty...?
I've had this problem and the only thing that worked for me....sm
was to slow down turnaround. They called within a couple of days. Told them I had to take on extra work to meet my own bills by paying customers which slowed down their turnaround. I had my check the next day. Don't know how they managed that, but they did. Since then, there have been a couple of times that it was a week or so late, but not like they used to do. I honestly think as long as they can get away with it, they will. I wonder how long they would last if their paychecks were 2-3 weeks late. Really irks me.
We've had that CD burner thing happen too
We build our own systems instead of getting prepackaged ones so sometimes it is absolutely agonizing trying to get everything to work together. I have a CD-ROM (not burner) that I've had for probably ten years and when all else fails and I just need access to a CD, I use it. It's still chugging along.
I've always been curious about the satellite thing...
We are considering moving from the city to the sticks in the very near future, and I'm finding a lot of areas we can ONLY get satellite for high speed internet.
I have seen a few job ads that say no satellite, but why is that? I really know nothing about that service so there is probably an easy answer, I just don't know what it is.
It would be good to know if that will be a major problem before we move out there and I find myself out of a job. ;)
This is the funniest thing I've heard in all my
make 3 cpl... if you are really a physician, please stick to that, you'll make more money seeing one patient than we can edit reports in 12 hours! Furthermore, the jobs even that are classified as IC make you stick to a schedule! So, there's no coming and going between patients, okay?!
I mean this OP is joking right?????????????
That's the craziest f@$^@#(ng thing I've ever heard
I've worked for a hospital at home and they don't all have those restrictions. If I didn't know better, I'd swear is was one of those situations where they're looking for a reason to be able to offshore- can't find anybody to do the job. No noise, music, TV? How do you work at home and eliminate those things?
That is THE most dangerous thing I think I've ever heard. You don't understand it?!
One thing I've learned in life is it's impossible to
stand up for themselves. Maybe only 1 in 100 will even try. Sad to say, but we've brought a lot of this onto ourselves.
I've been doing the same thing with my Smartype LOL was hoping there was a program

Oh, my. That's the funniest thing I've read in a long time.

well, maybe I wouldn't be rich, but I could buy a months' worth of groceries! LOL
Honestly that is the most intelligent thing I've heard from an MT co. in a long time. Completely
You have to be able to retain knowledge.
You have to know how to reserach effectively.
You have to be able to use deductive reasoning.
You have to have confidence in your decisions and not constantly "need assurance."
You have to be able to separate sounds in your head that are both internal and from multiple external forces.
Some of these can be taught, some are innate, some take years to develop, some either you got it or you don't.
sure and I'm the easter bunny

I'd eat bunny if it tasted like chicken!
yum?
But would you eat chicken if it tasted like Bunny?
:+
I agree with "Snow Bunny" Federal govt. sm
Everyone new that New Orleans was pooooooooooooooooooooor
I would have been a hooker at Bunny Ranch (they make $1200/hr). My equipment is obsolete now
I want snow, if only for a day, we never get any!
NM

I live in Massachusetts and we have just about 12 inches of snow on the ground right now. Yay....

Snow
It's beautiful here in Massachusetts right now, but preety cold. The kids are hoping for a snow day tomorrow! Me too!
