portal vs porthole
In Stedman's Orthopaedic and Rehab reference, there are about 40+ enties of specific kinds of portals. The word porthole does not appear anywhere.
Arthroscopic portal or porthole?
I have always typed portal but a co-worker is using porthole.  Which is correct?

LTS???? IS IT REPUTABLE???

I was just accepted as an IC from LTS.  I wondering if they were reputable.. Please let me know!!


 



Reputable? Yes
Worked for them for 8 years (starting when they were Edix).  They are snakes in the grass.  Anyone who says they are a good company just hasn't been burnt yet.  I wouldn't go back there if they offered me a million dollars.  There are better companies out there to work for. 
There are almost NO reputable MTs who would sm
would work for you, do YOUR work, with the conditions you state.  People apply and give you an option.  You won't get help any other way. 
very reputable....I sent you an e-mail. -nm
x
Yes, they are very reputable - email me
and I will fill you in on how things are done there.  Things are done slightly differently there, but it is a good company, good people, lots of work, promptly paid.
ABSOLUTELY NOT REPUTABLE - sm
They are absolutely not a reputable company whatsoever. They are a major lawsuit waiting to happen.

They make no secrets about offshoring to India, however, most of the hospitals are not privvy to that information.
Yes, Spheris is reputable.
I've been employed there for over 6 years with no problems whatsoever.

They are a reputable company unless you consider one that offshores as not reputable - which apparently the non-Indian Transcriber (?) does. They pay on time, offer good benefits, and there's always work if you are willing to be a little flexible.
If it is a reputable company it probably
is. My IC job hired me without any references or resume, just a conversation on the phone. I sent them the info and have had no problem with direct deposit.
Not a reputable company. nt
 
Yes, go to a reputable online..

 spyware removal site (like Nortan or McCaffee, etc. and get any and all bugs removed.  Will cost about $60 and then your done.  This happened to me a couple of weeks ago and that was my solution.    I am cautious about not clicking or downloading suspicious things, but it got me somehow.


I'd do one of two things. If it is a reputable company, I would...
put 000-00-0123 or xxx-xx-x123 (if it will accept it). If not a well known company, I would NOT put it or put 000-00-0000.
Don't waste your money.... A very reputable...
physician was speaking at a conference, a doc who specializes in weight loss and  has a practice for same and I was able to ask about these products.  She said they are just a waste of money.
Not all, some are reputable, as poster above mentions
I joined a few of them for free a while ago and have been contacted for a few shops. Unfortunately some don't pay well IMO and don't seem worth the trouble, i.e. $10 or $20.00. In my experience, rarely clothes shops or anything real interesting. Often gas stations or electronic type shops. The restaurant ones are good, you can get a free meal for 2 - they are pretty rare though. It's definitely not a big money-maker and probably more like a hobby or for fun if you like that kind of thing. You also need to have a very flexible schedule because often they will contact you about shops needing to be done within a couple of days.
Then personally, I would not consider them reputable and send in
my letter of resignation ASAP.
Yes - reputable company. Easy to work for. Pay on time always. nm

Yep, google has it goin on... I really like the google earth...
Have you tried Google earth? You can type in any address, street, city, state, country, etc. and it will zoom in and show the area and then you can hit the + button and zoom right in and see the exact house, building, etc. that you are looking for.
Mainly Google; I google the known words in the phrase (sm)
That's my most frequent tactic if I don't find the word in my word books. I'll play with leaving certain words out and adding them in, in various combinations, to try to get a hit that has a word which sounds like my blank. If I get a hit, I'll Google WITH that word, and see what hits I get, and what their source is (i.e.,checking the sources out for reliability). When I say 5 sites or searches, I mean I don't often try more than 5 different combinations without a serious hit. If I get a hit, then I will spend a little more time checking that out before I give up.

If it's a drug name, I use RxList, or more frequently the Drugs.com website. Since they redid RxList, I haven't found one that has quite as good a wildcard search, but Drugs.com works okay most of the time.

If it's a place name (like when they give names of outlying outreach clinics and etc.) I'll use Mapquest and look up the city my hospital is in, then "pan out" and look at the outlying towns.

Hope that's what you're looking for. I do have bookmarks, but I find that even the ones I think I'll visit again, I waste more time doing that than with an intelligent google search. An example is the time I was looking for "banana bag." The only place I managed to find it with a degree of reliability was on a nurses' message board. I've found quite a bit sometimes on the various specialty message boards out there, but I think the quickest way to locate that is through a search engine rather than bookmarking each individual site and trying to figure out which ones to search for a particular term.
Yes, bought my SUV from Ebay from a reputable Infiniti Dealer in Houston and I live outside of Atlan
Best car I've ever, ever had. They specialize in luxury cars and large SUVs. Had hundreds of positive feedback from other buyers, very reputable seller. Got my Yukon for 8,000 under blue book. It was an awesome experience and we'd do it again in a heart beat. I had to drive out there to get it and it has everything in it - OnStar, media package, leather.

The only problem with that is you have to get your own financing and have the money in hand when picking up your vehicle.

Don't knock buying on ebay unless you've had a bad experience buying a vehicle. I've had my SUV for over a year. NO problems and if I sold it today I would make money on it.
Thank you, Google God. My google icon is

OK! I'm glad you're back down here. Now don't go back up there and read those evil posts ag
Okay? But I have to leave you now, sadly. Thousands of noble dictating doctors are anxiously awaiting my help with their "dictations"....They're all loading up on chips, drinking lots of soda so they can burp, and then have to go to the bathroom...You know the routine! Off I go to earn some pennies!! But, truly, I am thankful that I have a job!
PS.. It apparently worked..I heard back and already submitted the paperwork back.

I'm not sure how many people they are hiring but you shouldn't stress too hard over it. Do the best you can.


It has nothing to do with sites..
Check with your ISP, modem or phone line.

FTP sites...
Does anyone know of any FTP sites that do not have a user fee? I am currently using a software that charges me 0.025 cpl and I find it's a ripoff. I really don't make any money off this software, AND I paid an arm and a leg for this software. Can anyone tell me where I can find an FTP site that does not charge a user fee? TIA.
OB/GYN sites

Can someone tell me of some good OB/GYN sites out there?  For that matter, any good specialty sites.  I'm fairly new to transcription and still gathering good reference sites.


Thanks in advance!

Does anybody have any good web sites for OB/GYN and peds?  I haven't done all that much of either one and I'm having a slow go with the acronyms.  Any help would really be appreciated!

Many thanks 2 U both 4 the 3 gr8 sites (sm)

I'm good to go!!



 


It's right on their Web sites...

Visit this site, read paragraph 2 and notice the word global.  It doesn't appear they are trying to hide anything.

Some different sites here too . .

These help me:


For City/States/Counties:  *HomeTownLocator* --  http://www.hometownlocator.com/


For Orthopedics:  Really great site.  Can use search box or click on any part of the skeleton.  *Wheeless On Line* --  http://www.wheelessonline.com/


For Medical Abbreviations:  Also has a medical dictionary, drug search and medical instrument search, but I just use it for the Abbreviations.  *MediLexicon*   http://www.medilexicon.com/


For Chemotherapy Drugs - *ChemoCare*  http://www.chemocare.com/bio/


For Medical Dictionary - *Dorlands Medical Dictionary* - http://www.mercksource.com/pp/us/cns/cns_hl_dorlands_split.jsp?pg=/ppdocs/us/common/dorlands/dorland/misc/A_TOC.htm


For Clinical Trials - http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/


Those are some of what I use all the time. 


 


thanks a lot for these sites
I appreciate you taking the time to give them to me!
But, I can access all other web sites
So, would it really be my Internet Explorer causing the problem???

I use to go to this one web site where I could always log on even during them updating the site but many others could not - some could, some could not. I just have a feeling this may be the same type of thing - something with the website itself or else I would have problems with other websites, wouldn't I? I can access any other website I want but this particular one - wwww.weightwatchers.com

I thought maybe I needed to clean out my cache or whatever as they may have changed something where it keeps using something on my computer that is old/no longer valid in order to access the site but wouldn't everything I have done so far have eliminated a possible problem such as that??? I did not actually go in and delete anything in any cache so I don't know if that may need to be done yet and, if so, I have no idea where to go and/or which one(s) I need to do that with.

Thanks so much for trying to help. I sincerely appreciate it.
Any of you pet lovers seen these sites?

So cute, and so addicting!


Thanks for the sites. I have a question...
I have avoided calling Dell to ask for help with certain issues because I cannot understand them. If I ask them to transfer me to a US office, will they?
cancer sites
I usually use the NIH-National Cancer Institute site. It has listing of clinical trials, types of drugs, different types of cancer treatments. I also depend heavily on the Oncology Word Book by Stedman.
The other sites might as well not exist
They are so self censored that they won't give a company's name, so they might as well not exist. MTStars is the best board on the internet for FREEDOM OF INFORMATION. Posters may say that people are negative on this board, but they are honest and realistic. The other boards are so full of Pollyannas they are virtually worthless -- INCLUDING boards you have to pay by the month.
