I received this because...

In Reply to: that just makes me angry - feck

I received this because I had posted on this forum about increasing my production.  This particular person emailed me through this board with that response.    And no, I am not going to send my work overseas to them for those of you who are wondering.  lol

I never received, and neither did my
We were all at the big M. I just resigned after almost a year, and did meet all of their criteria. However, their system isn't correct and even said that I was not going to be hired when my friend asked about her referral bonus. Mind you...I had already worked there for 6 months at this point. I keep getting "I will check on it" when I ask about my sign on bonus. I gave up and left.
I have received these before too. sm
I just deleted it and ignored it.
I have received the email too
I also have received an email and called them and they mentioned AAMT, which I do not belong to either.  I have never even posted on this board before, but do receive the posting through email.  I dont know where they received my email address and they did not know either.
Any other SS employees not received their..
paycheck? I am not looking to start anything, just wondering if I am the only one who hasn't gotten paid yet?
I received cookies
I received cookies from an MT company I know longer work for and of course nothing from the ones I do work for!!
How nice that he/she received it well. (nm)

I have received several things
I've had messages from companies wanting me to subcontract, individuals sending resumes, etc. Some have mentioned getting my e-mail address from this board. I just hit delete after maybe mumbling a few *#&(#*(! Yes, their writing skills are lacking. My severely dyslexic son can form a proper sentence and spell better than these people.
No - but I received a call from them.
Did you talk with Ann? I have a friend who worked with them for a while and she liked the company but had problems that prevented her from working very much. Do you know what account you will be working on?
I just received an email
from my company saying that due to the storm the work was very low, one clinic closed and the other one was basically out of work (at least for what I do which is outpatient)....
I have received a few letters
so far.  Keep those letters to The White House coming you guys!  I am so trying to get our voices heard so that our careers may be saved.  I am addressing outsourcing, offshoring, patient security, voice recognition and anything else that can come to mind concerning transcription.  I want to have a packet of letters to mail off because that will have a greater impact versus just sending one letter here and there.  Please join me!  Deadline for sending letters is 1/28/09.  Email me if you wanna join me:)
What did you click so that you received the
copy of the test? If you clcked the 'send' button and afterwards you received the completed copy of your test unedited) what's the problem, as your test was already gone. How could you have cheated if your test was already sent?

They immediately sent you a copy of your submitted test, unedited. for your files, as one cannot save testfiles.

I do not understand where your problem is?

Just wait for their response and I hope you get hired!
Have not received either imail or letter
regarding this subject. Would someone please summarize such email/letter in a post for us who have not received this info as of yet. TYIF
I received a letter from MQ CEO regarding the MT lawsuit
They have acknowledged the existance of lawsuit but in their CEO spin states only 3 (THREE) MTs are part of this action. I know I'm not part of the original 3 and I have joined the class action so either MQ CEO is blowing smoke or has his head up his A$$. Either way, it is typical of MQ CEO.
Has anyone ever received the referral bonus from MQ? sm
If so, how long did it take to get it and does it only apply if you are employee status?
...just went to the mailbox and have not received that letter as of yet. Thanks. nm.
nm.
What state are you in -- that you received the check already?

No check here, but does show up in ipay.


What does the attached letter say?


I received the same information yesterday.
x
I've actually received two raises from MQ...
just in the past three months!

Hahaha. I just know I received it in an email
and regardless of the author, it is well written and speaks my perspective perfectly!

Thanks for the information, though!
I received an excellent education through M-TEC

Has anyone received a personal loan lately?

I had unexpected expenses and had to get a small one from HSBC.  Here are the questions I was asked:


Do you have medical insurance?  If so, what are the deductibles for hospital stays, office visits.


Do you have life insurance and if so, how much?


Do you have disability ins and if so, how much?


What is your home owner's insurance deductible?


What is car insurance deductible?


Who are your insurance carriers?


I do not recall these types of questions.  I ended up buying 10/mo insurance coverage which includes disability and life insurance...for $2600.  I am 48.


Is this new? 


Has anyone here ever received a response or job offer SM

from posting your resume in the resume bank at MTStars?  TIA!


I received an email also, but I'm not taking it
I'm not a member of the AAMT, I am not going to get my CMT, and I'm not taking this test either. I don't agree with anything the AAMT is doing nowadays and I will not give them any of my money. From what I gather being an RMT or CMT isn't really going to get you much further in this business anyway.
AAMT--just received an invitation--sm
to participate in an international professional and cultural program in China.  Cost is $4,995.00 per participant and guest--spouses encouraged to attend.  Anyone going??
Received one also -- saving my pennies

Got my yesterday in the mail.  Thought that they changed their name.  And I thought it was personally addressed to me.  Don't know how they got my name and my business name as I do not belong to the organization.   Anyway gotta get my reservation in by December 20th or so.  


 


 


I received the same e-mail. It came through with MTStars
on it just like every other e-mail I get through here does.    All they would have to do is open a post and e-mail, they wouldn't have to now the address. 
Still waiting: $60 earned or received? nm
nm
I received this in an email and thought it was very
interesting and agree 100%.

Subject: Fw: Australians Say speak English



Please if you have not done so contact your government officials and let them know we want ENGLISH to stand as the language for America.



WOW!!! This is powerful. I agree with every word of the Prime
Minister's statements. Why can't we be like that? How come we don't
have a leader who will stand up like John Howard?



Subject: Australians Say speak English

Canada and the U. S. Need A Leader Like This!

Prime Minister John Howard - Australia
Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday
to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to
head off potential terror attacks.
Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying
he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: '
IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired
of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or
their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a
surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.'
' This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials
and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom'
' We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to
become part of our society . Learn the language!'
' Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right
wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on
Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly
documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our
schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of
the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'
' We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is
that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with
us.'
' This is OUR COUNTRY, O UR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you
every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining,
whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs,
or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other
great Australian freedom, ' THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'
' If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here.
You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'

Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves, CANADIAN & American
citizens will find the backbone to start speaking and voicing the same
truths.

well i just received my letter today.
x
I never received 1099 forms when I
was an IC. I worked for a hospital for almost 10 years plus had other docs and an attorney. The attorney did give me one every year and it never conformed to my figures but I never had a problem.
I received an opt-out of a class action

lawsuit involving a certain MTSO and the other party involved (think it was formerly AAMT).  Anyway, since I won't get a dime even after having been ripped off all those years, I just threw it in the garbage.  AAMT, or whatever they call themselves now, plans on keeping ALL settlement monies for their greedy little selves.


When I worked for the MTSO there were rumors flying around about the 90 character line count that was then converted to 55 characters before going to the client.  The MTSO pocketed the rest.  Guess it really wasn't a rumor after all.  How sad. 


I also received a note today about hiring more if

we don't stay in turnaround, however, we WERE in turn-around!!  I don't understand!


I was just recently switched to Amherst from another office on the West Coast (our account is now managed by Amherst, I should say).  Was told it would be a great move for me, that they were an awesome team to work with.  However, I've been threatened several times now by the threat that more will be hired if the work isn't caught up.  What's up with that???


According to the Medquist Style Guidelines that I received,
it states that the one space rule applies following a period, in numeric lists, and following a colon. I received these guidelines in March from MQ. This is what I would go by. I was told that if I spaced twice I would receive a penalty on my QA reviews. Obviously, you are the uninformed one, so see ya later wench.

The last call I received after a huge mailing (sm)

And I mean huge, over 200 brochures with over 25 years of experience and a digital system -- they were willing to pay about 9 cents a line for surgery notes.  Since I live in California, 16 cents would be more like it.  I guess I'm not that flexible.


They must have answered that India ad. 


Has anyone received their W2 from Spheris or Webmedx. Yes, I work for both.

My daughter received SSI as she was born with a handicap, but (sm)
I believe it did go by what you made.  I was a single parent at the time.  Are there any associations maybe that are affiliated with your son's illness who might be able to point you in the right direction.  Maybe help with prescriptions, if he takes any?  I really feel for you, I know it's rough. 
I received the info inside from AAMT

do reveal OP's true identity. I received
 an email and would like to know who I may be conversing with.
I received a flyer from Lippincott, Williams & --sm
Wilkins offering a trial  study guid and CD to take the RMT exam.  Has anyone done this? Where/when/how are the exams given? 
Has anyone ever received the $500, $1,000 or $2,000 sign on bonus or is it just a scam?
I've worked for several companies who state $500 or $1,000 sign on bonus, but when it comes down to getting the bonus, some drop your QA rating when it was just from them changing formatting of the reports, abbreviation usage, dates in reports, etc.  Then if you have a good QA rating, then they say you aren't meeting the required line count when you were meeting the required line count until it got time for the sign on bonus then they sling you a lot of ESLs just to slow you down.  Just curious if there is a company out there that really gives the bonus and does not do things that prevent you from getting it?
I received one with my dorland Medical Dictionary
And it has been a great help. lp
I received 2 job offers from posting here just last week.

I feel your pain. I just received packet SM
in mail from AARP, where basic major medical was quoted for $250 a month with $4500.00 a year out of pocket. That is fine, but what will it be next year? I have six years to go until retirement.
received equipment new to diskriter and to chartscript

I just received my pc and extras from Diskriter yesterday, after a lengthy wait, really ready to get going; however, they also sent a complex Chartscript book and I've never used this platform before.  Anyone have any quick notes they can share or can you let me know if it is difficult to learn.  Thank you in advance.


...any mail received. I always respond back. Sorry for
s
I received an email from Susan Poe, too. TO MODERATOR: SM
How should I handle this? With all due respect to ajc0197, I do not know who ajc0197 is, so I'm wary to contact this person. Since this scam email came from MT Stars, perhaps it is MT Stars who should and would prefer to handle it for us.

Please advise with ID. Thanks.
Yes, I also received nice notes from doctors...
and also had what I called my partner in crime (my coworker) and one of the best MTs I've ever seen in all my years of MT'ing.  We had a doctor throw a container of paperclips on the floor because he was mad that the blank tapes he needed were missing from the desk.  She told him:  You are going to pick every one of those up, and GROW UP!  We never had any more trouble out of him.  We had working relationships onsite that could never be replaced.  We were respected and complimented on a job well done by many of the staff.  Then came outsourcing...  end of story...  
just received the paper work on the Medquist lawsuit
Seriously, no flames, anyone know whats going on?  Are we on a sinking ship here? 
I received a check today from the oral surgeon. nm
 
I received a note from QA that I'd spelled the patient's name wrong

THROUGHOUT the report.  Since I don't keep a copy of the chart on my computer anymore, I can't go back and look at it to see what I did.  I vaguely remember though, 2 days later, that I had a patient that was not on the patient list so I spelled phonetically, marked it for QA that this was throughouit the report and sent it on its way.  I questioned the person telling me about the mistake as to whether it was spelled right in the demographics and a couple more questions trying to clear my confusion about what could have happened.  This is certainly not something that is my norm, for sure.  She replied once, but after asking another question and telling her that I'm really not trying to give her a hard time over this, she has not responded again.  Is it possible that someone QA'd my report, fixed the patient's name in the demographics but didn't look at the report body.  Perhaps I should have flagged every place that it is mentioned as well?  "The patient" certainly would have been a sure thing here but not allowed. 


So now that I've ranted a little more over this I'll let it go (hopefully) but I just can't believe I'd have done this.  I even use "uj" in my Expander and change it to the patient's name with every report, just so I don't make a mistake remembering how to spell some of the names.  I guess that's the biggest reason why I'm having a hard time with this one, because I do the same think on EVERY report, uj=whatever the patient's name is as per the demographics on the patient.  AAARRRGGGHHHH.  It sure does bug me.
