oops -- typo
Fingers are not working today. Sorry. :(
Oops....typo alert!
That should have been "to do radiology reports" not "to radiology reports."  My proofreading skills are on standby, I guess.
oops typo should be each 30 seconds, not each second nm

Just noticed typo - should've proofed before sending.  Sorry for the incorrect spelling of through.
It was a typo
My father-in-law signed my husband up for this and I thought I would give it a shot to see if we could make some extra money. I really am a medical transcriptionist. I work for a company out of Brentwood, TN, but I get to work from home using ChartMatrix and VoiceWave.
I noticed that..
If it was the one that started out at 5 cents. What terrible pay.
well I have noticed......sm
that 2 of them are being XTRA XTRA careful when dictating risks and benefits (the plasticsmen) of late......being more lengthy about the risks and benefits....looks like they are CVTA (covering their a**es*) *lol*
I just noticed something....SM
I entered 3 entries into the Shorthand and expanded them and noticed that my autocorrect works as well.  I am able to use both of them together. Does anyone use both of these at the same time???
Has anyone noticed...
that the Job Seeker's Board is all lit up in yellow! It looks like its on fire! I wonder why...hmm...
I noticed that too
I ended up returning mine to the store. Love the layout of the keyboard, and all those features are great; they just need to work on getting a better touch to it. The MS natural was stiff too.
Have you noticed?
Have you noticed how they are down to 3 girls and 3 guys? Last year it came down to a guy/girl, year before that 2 girls, and the year before that 2 guys. I didn't watch the first year with Kelly Clarkson so I don't know who the other contestant was in the final 2 that year. Will the pattern start over this year?
have you noticed that
Taylor hasn't been in the bottom 3 at all yet? Gotta love him! I know, I know, not everybody does but I love him enough to make up for it.
On PAs - has anyone noticed (sm)

that more and more PAs are dictating for the physicians, and they are just awful!  They can't pronounce things, go 90 miles an hour, and I'm not impressed with their yawning, laughing, and various other things they do that are aggravating.  I am sick of them - even the ESLs are better than some of them.  JMO


has anyone else noticed--sm
The new *report message* button at the top of an opened message?  I just  noticed this when reading some rather snide responses to one of my posts earlier.  Hmmmm.....this might be a neat little feature.  Thanks again to the Admin. for looking out for the posters who like to frequent here without having to be harassed, polked fun of, and told to *get a life* when something does not meet with someone elses *approval*.   
It's a typo - get over it! nm

Sorry about that typo!

typo
I meant to say [resent] instead of recent. I hate typos, even in postings---must be the MT in my blood!
Your VPN, no you. typo! nm

Sorry, typo, but I'm not ..
even sure it is the right drug without the context.
sorry for the typo

have any of you noticed
that when you are first hired by a company, they go on to state about all of these certain rules and requirements (the recruiter tells you the same) such as schedule, how long you should be on QA, if you do not do these by a certain time you could be termiated, etc.  As soon as you start working, it is totally different.  They are much more laid back and none of those things they said are really applied.  I am glad that they are more laid back than what you are expecting, but this is just something I have noticed now with 2 companies.  Have any of you noticed this?
I had noticed some changes

similar, but I thought they may have been linked with depression. 


Things like not wanting to go out for groceries until it was absolutely necessary or if a friend wanted to go out and do things with me.  I just figured it had to do with exhaustion/depression.  s


typo!
Sorry---meant 500/wk!
just noticed below
I just noticed this very question was asked by someone else yesterday and is posted below.  I will check out those suggestions, along with the one above.  Thanks ya'll.
their typo
**
i noticed
the only thing they did for me was sell my name and address to offshore companies, who in turn flooded me with unwanted solicitation. I asked that my name be deleted from mailing list several times. I was told this was their "main source of revenue." Hmph.
That is they are here not AR. sorry typo nm.

Sorry for typo. sm
Sorry for typo. Yes, you are right. It's such a small amount, but the principle of the matter as well as her arrogant disposition prompted me to do it. Her lawyer is taking it to trial. We could have settled this thing, but maybe her lawyer is milking her and stroking her pride. Anyway, someone is going to get paid, even if it is not me.
Here is what I have noticed on
When I first started on ES I had one nice steady account. I worked on it with one other MT. The facility was new to the platform, and I guess it was kind of a first run trial thing because it was just a few dictators. Once they all got on speech rec, it was awesome. The program even learned the basic formatting, would add appropriate headings, etc. (The line counts were great). There was very little editing needed.

Then they started adding dictators. Still no problem until it got to be too much for just the 2 of us. Each time a new MT started on the account, we could tell. It wasn't that they weren't necessarily doing things incorrectly, just differently. The speech rec program would start formatting things differently because it was learning from the new MTs too. Then it got bad. Things like date format or section formatting, which were client preferences and had to be done a certain way, suddenly had to be constantly fixed. And the speech rec itself seemed to go downhill and not recognize everything it used to.

In short, I think it depends on how many MTs work on the account, how strictly they adhere to client preference, and what their skill level is.




Typo
Was told I could NOT take a vacation....or, not one that included the entire weekend - lol!
typo
cataract and not enough coffee. :)
Well, here is how I noticed it to happen
A urologist had multiple normal vasectomy reports that he dictated throughout the day for my acct.

On certain days when a particular person did not work, the normal lengthy surgical procedures came through - they were line-producing reports - a few strokes on the keyboard and you have just typed 60 lines.

However, when a certain in-house person who worked at the office (Monrovia) was working, none of these operative reports came through. They were with the Sansum acct and this particular person was on this acct also. This happened over a four year period...it was obvious that he was bleeding the report into his C-phone either by asking someone in the distribution area to send them to him or just skipping jobs the way a C-phone back in 1999 to 2003 allowed you to skip jobs.

That was my first clue - hot reports (that allow you to make money) just aren't appearing on the screen and had at one time. Someone is making a ton of money and you aren't - and you are working the same amount of time, have equivalent skills and are on the same acct.

Let's face it, we are all in need of money or else we would not be doing this thankless job - where we once were thought highly of and now are not.
I never noticed he was manic
I always liked him and thought he was cute.  Now he kind of turns me off, though.  Still want to see War of the Worlds, however.   I always thought he had the nicest smile.
I have noticed too, since discovering (sm)
this board, I have wasted a lot of time reading and posting, too.  But, I am so unmotivated, and I don't know why! I'm not usually this way, guess it's the heat, kids at home, etc. I hope when school starts back, in four days, I'll feel back to myself.
I noticed it, too, using DQS for another company. nm

Has anybody ever noticed that when a company with a relatively
good reputation is hiring, all of a sudden there are a bunch of posts bashing that company?  It makes me wonder if the negative posts are from MTs who don't want any competition in the application process.  Hmmm....
"It" not I. sorry for the typo. nm

I've noticed this, as well. sm

I have cats and dogs.  Very expensive.  Vets have so much more in their arsenal now to help animals with.  The supposed reason for doing the twice a year blood tests on cats/dogs over 10 is that their conditions change so quickly at that age.  We have discovered thyroid, diabetic, kidney,  and arthritic conditions in our older pets that have been controlled or minimized with medications and/or special prescription diets and we have been able to improve the quality and length of our pets' lives.  Not to mention heart conditions that can show up and need medication.  It all depends on how much you can afford to spend.  It is truly amazing all that can be done to help our pets these days.  Dental care is important for pets as periodontal disease can lead to serious conditions elsewhere in their bodies, just like people.  Twice a year seems a bit much though, unless the pet has a really bad dental condition.  One thing I have stopped is vaccinations (other than state-mandated rabies) on a yearly basis for cats over the age of 10 that are indoor pets.  They really don't need it after many years of vaccine buildup in their systems and it can be too much for the aging systems to take.  Best to consult with vet about that option. 


Thanks for replying. I have noticed that there seem to be a lot of ads ... sm
that mention this.  I am thinking of seeing if I can train on it.  I currently work in DOS so at least I am used to that part.  I usually use ShortCut for Windows but I do have ShortHand also but am not as familiar with it.  Just thinking about it - thanks again for your help.
