Jill's mother (or so she always thought) came to visit because she had cancer and she wanted to tell Jill that she was adopted in case she didn't live (she did live). Jill went searching for her mother, found this woman that said she was her mother (she wasn't). This was someone Kay knew from long ago. Any how the woman finally let Kay know that she was Jill's mother. This caused Kay to have a stroke. Everything finally came out because Mac (Kay's granddaughter) was going to marry Billy (Jill's son). Of course they found out just after their wedding ceremony that they were first cousins, and thus their love was forbidden. Needless to say, neither Jill nor Kay were thrilled with the truth, but they have been working on their relationship.

As far as Abby goes, Diane Jenkins had stolen what was thought to be Victor's donation to the Sperm Bank in order to produce another heir for Victor. There were 2 samples and Ashley stole one and used it on herself, and thus produced Abby. The other sample Diane used for herself and produced a child. However, it turned out not to be Victors, but by a stroke of luck, it turned out to be Jack's (he had been having a testicular cancer scare, so he just put some stuff aside just in case).

As you can see, I watch too much TV during my lunch break. LOL

Some detailed instructions for you. sm

I believe I understand what you're trying to do. Try following these steps.


Open a new blank document and set the margins as you've been instructed (File, Page Setup, Margins). Next, click on the tab for Layout. Make sure Section starts has New Page in the box. In the next section, Headers and Footers, make sure none of the boxes are checked. Change the measurement from edge for the Header to 1". In the Page Section for vertical layout choose Center. In Preview Section make sure that Whole Document is selected. Click OK.


Now, Go to View, Headers/Footers. Type the information that you want into the Header area. Don't worry that it looks like the Header area is larger than it should be; it will shrink as your letter grows. Save this as a document template (.dot)


Now, whenever you use this template, just type your first letter, use Ctrl+Enter to go to the next letter/page. The Header information will show at the top of each page and each letter will be centered on the page for you.


Personally, I believe how detailed
the original instructions for the account are when the account begins on the program is vital.  I used to hate all the account specifics, but the more detailed they are, the less questions you have and together as a team we will make less mistakes.  This will lead to everyone doing it the same way and the VR learning correctly the first time.  I worked 2 hours and can to 400 lph strictly editing.  I didn't think it could be done either, but this is also an account with very little ESL.  So there are many, many factors to getting a good lph rate.  Hope this helps.
Thank you for your detailed instructions...think I found it

Thanks so much for the great detailed info!
Well, the 911 thing was that its not hooked up to my local 911 anymore, and has to go thru their emergency center, who will forward my info to my 911. Only danger is that if I can't speak, I might be sunk. I have anaphylactic reactions at times, so got a little nervous about that end.  But I've never been able to be kept quiet for long to date! ;-) Near death or not, I can still talk! Well, I guess I'll go along with it and give them a try. I love their ads, and the cost is great. I, too, always have the unlimited plans with other companies, which ALWAYS cost me more each month for no reason!! Thanks again! Happy Vonage!
Clinic notes are less detailed normally
than acute care/hospital reports. They are limited to that 1 speciality with only sparse mentioned normally of other medical conditions not pertaining to the clinic visit. However, in acute care, you have to be aware of drugs, generic versus brand, correct dosages, all types of medical conditions, problems, side effects, lab values (a working knowledge of correct and invalid values dictated in case the doctor is in error), and "all" specialities. That is just a few of the things required for acute care transcription.

Many MTSOs looking for acute care MTs will not consider someone who has only been in a "clinic" per se because the MT has only been possibly working in 1 speciality. You need a broad overall knowledge to work in acute care as you never know from 1 report to the other what is going to be thrown at you. In the clinic setting, the MT can be isolated from anything new that has cropped up, especially if in a clinic for a number of years.
Need additional cardiac reference - have Stedmans - need something more detailed about heart caths,

Thank you. I appreciate the information ...
sounds like a way to reward those whose production and quality are at the top.

Thanks.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
but, with a much better company and I smell management. Take that and smoke it.
Perhaps this information might help:
If you would post a clear statement of the change that is happening and what its expected results will be BEFORE you make such changes, then it wouldn't be viewed so suspiciously.
rec'd no such information
and my count has been 'below production' different times and my benefits didn't change. My supe told me way back when that only if a person "consistently" didn't make production would it affect their benefits.
Where did you get your information? nm.

information
i mentioned something to my supervisor a couple of weeks ago that I "heard" that MQ was offering extra on the line rates to new hires, which upset me, and of course, her response was you can't trust what you hear or see and I know that, but it seems like what i'm seeing on this website seems to be more reliable in some respects than what i get from MQ and like you said, that's really sad. I'm not signed up for IPay so i can't check to see if there's anything there -- guess i could check my bank to see if there's more there.
For your information,
I am not at all overweight. I would really like to know why someone who is as beautiful as you say you are is a transcriptionist?
Information (SM)
If you want to know why your posts are deleted, leave a valid e-mail address. I e-mail the poster why and a copy of their deleted post.

It is not because you have "MQ" in your moniker as a name. Otherwise, take this gripe over your posts being removed to e-mail or it will be deleted.
Don't know where you got your information-
Although a CMA is definitely not a PA, I do not know anywhere you get get what you need in 4-6 weeks.  I took the CMA exam after years working in a physician's office, but the programs that I know about in this area are 1-2 years.
Any information on this anyone?

My husband came home from work hearing about something called EDTA (Ethylene~Diamine~Tetra-acetic~Acid).  It is suppose to break down the minerals and heavy metals out of your body and make your risk of heart disease a lot lower.  Does anyone have an information on this.  He would like to take it if it true because of heart disease in his family, although I am not certain he should, as I always worry about the things they don't tell you about the stuff your taking.   


Any information would be great.


Thanks!!


Thanks for the information!!!

Thanks to all for the information.

Thanks for the information.

Thanks so much for the information...sm
Final question - I checked out the website that you told me about and that explains it all.  One final question - do you have connection problems with this and I guess one more question, and the true final question is the quality of the voice good on the file?  Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
I appreciate the information. nm

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the information
Thanks to all of you for the helpful information!
Thanks for that information

That is very interesting about the files not being there at all. May be I am not getting the files downloaded correctly.    Thanks so much for your help!


Thanks so much for the information!!
:)
where does that information come from?
please give links. I found nothing to substantiate that on my search
Thanks, that is quite useful information, but
you do not continue to believe that air conditioning will kill mold . . . it will not, and nowhere in the document you linked to does it even suggest that. It does provide information about air conditioning lowering the relative humidity of a home, and also that it aids in drying out wet areas (because it lowers the relative humidity).

You are not only misinformed, but also are misinforming others by posting segments of the document that are not connected in any other way than being a part of the same document.

For anyone who is interested, and perhaps does not want to go to the link or read the full text, this is what it actually says.

PREVENTING MOLD GROWTH (begins on page 2)

Page 3, paragraphs 4 and 5

Increase the air flow in problem areas. Move furniture
a few inches away from outside walls so that air
flow will decrease the problem of condensation on
the walls.

If mold is growing in closets, keep closet doors
open to promote air flow. Closets should not be overfilled,as this will reduce air circulation in the closet. Louvered closet doors aid in ventilation. Circulating fans may help with air flow in problem areas.


STRATEGIES FOR PREVENTING OR
REMOVING MOLD GROWTH AFTER CONTAMINATION (begins on page 3)


Page 4, paragraph 3


For many hard surfaces, disinfecting with a solution
of one cup of bleach to one gallon of water is effective.
The area must be kept wet with the bleach for 10 to 15
minutes to kill the mold. If the surface is porous like
wood, the bleach solution may need to be reapplied to
keep the surface wet for the required time. If large areas
of a basement need to be disinfected, a garden sprayer
can be used to apply the bleach solution to the walls. If the walls have been contaminated with sewage, increase the proportion of bleach to water.

MT Information
Hello, I am looking to start working as an MT in order to enable me to homeschool.  Can you please share any tips, job openings etc?? I would really appreciate it.  I am newly relocated to Lawrenceville GA from NJ.  Thanks!!
Need som information..

I would like to start doing things in my own area, get my accounts, etc.  I just do not know where to start.  Do I type up an "introductory" letter and send them to doc offices?  What kind of equipment is the easiest to do this "internet based?"  I have A LOT of questions.  If someone could email me, I would really appreciate it!! 


 


Thanks 


More information....SM

I don't mean a financial deduction.  I'm just trying to figure out a percentage score.  Here's the details.


The document is 40,178 characters.


There were two critical errors (word left out and wrong dose) and seven noncritical errors (like his instead of has, a instead of an, etc.)


How could I figure a percentage?


thank you for this information
I have been struggling with this decision and your info makes it easier for me to stick with XP. Why mess with a good thing?
Too much information
The doctor just dictated the patient became pregnant on her wedding night.  Not something I really needed to know.  LOL.
Where did this information come from?? nm

More information.

This program can be set to automatically download files from FTP sites or folders on the computer's hard drive; it's just that you have to do it manually, whereas some of the "more automated programs" came with these things already set up. I use ES for all transcription playback and haven't needed the pricer automation.


As with most opinions, they are subjective, but happy for the discourse.


Just for your information....
There was no lack of willingness to fill anybody in about anything. I was going to tell her everything from top to bottom about the account, what I was looking for and find out what she was looking for so as to make a perfect fit. She was not "signing her life away" either. I am only looking for 2-3 hours per day and the time you complete the work is totally up to you. As far as being miserable to work for, I haven't had anyone work for me before because I have been the only person in my business, doing hospital account along with IC positions. I don't have to offer more cpl to get anyone to work for me. In fact, I could just keep all of it for myself, but because I try to keep my clients happy I am needing to get another person on-board so as to keep TAT within reason. As far as I'm concerned this discussion can be locked. I can't believe the hateful and bitchy remarks made to a totally innocent inquiry. As I haven't had to go through the hiring process before, I was wondering if this was the norm, that you get people like this when you interview. After all of this, I think I will just continue to do all the work myself. There will be less headaches for all involved and more money for me in the long-run. So all of you who had a problem with a simple inquiry, go back to your little holes and be happy. I've got work to do!
Thanks for the information...nm

Exactly where are you getting this information?
LOL - "all other countries?"

Source, please.

Why can't Americans dispense with some of their arrogance and try harder to understand/be understood?

I have NO problem with ESLs in general because they oftern try harder to be understood than American mumblers/speeders.


You have old information.

MT Information
Treasia,
I graduated from a MT course in 06. It was a nine month course and I found it very helpful. I would think with your knowledge you would only need a Med.Term class for refreshers. (Which you probably do not need,but almost everyone wants). I also feel I should mention, which is something that I wish someone would have told me starting off,
MOST PLACES REQUIRE 2 YEARS BEFORE THEY ALLOW YOU TO WORK FROM HOME.

The college I would recommend is Indian Hills Community College, in Ottumwa Iowa. They offer all classes for this program online. They have a great set up and for all the interviews I have been on most of the employers comment on how great the classes were and sometimes they even went above and beyond what was required. Hope this helps and good luck to you.
Thank you for this information -

Thank you so, so much.  This is actually going to help me, too, on another project I am doing on my home computer.  I just happened to read the post.  I went to the website, and it looks like it is perfect!  It works with all window applications. 


All the best -


For your information,

"your" s/b spelled "you're!"


Second of all, I did not complain about every post! There are very supportive and positive people here, and you are NOT one of them! Once again, you are not even addressing the real issues here! If you don't have anything positive to say, then go away! Wow! I think there is less hostility in Iraq right now, than on this board!


Go away negative/unsupportive posters! We don't need you here! Helpful info only welcome!


Information for

becoming an editor. We may be going to powerscribe and I want to get as much education to prepare for this transaction if it takes place. Does anyone have any information or great websites or even books to help me prepare for this?

Have you gotten information on this yet?

thank you for that information....sm
I kept calling both numbers and they were busy for a long time. Finally, left message with President Obama's service. Also, left message with Senator Steve Levy's service. I just hope everyone does this :)
For your information . . .
My daugther will be 18 in June and no she is not having sex. She isn't even dating yet. She is very involved in school and education. Also, she does not want the Gardaisl shot. She came to me about it before she heard my opinion as several of her friends had bad experiences with them. The doctor did a breast exam ---which is why I was asked to leave. It is required in my state for a driver's permit -- no gyno exam. No she does not need to be vaccinated. I want her to live. Several girls have died. Cervical cancer is treatable and there is no hard proof Gardasil even works. So far I'm only seeing the bad side effects. The first girl ever to get it died within minutes. And yes, I have tried to do research on my own regarding back x-rays. I'm finding varies information, which is why I posted here.
seems there was information about...

Hi Jane Doe,
I would like to send a personal e-mail and talk with you.
why would we need your information sm
if you are a business development executive? We are MTs. We dont need your info. A better word for us is language specialists and its obvious you don't have a grasp of the English language!
Information on AccuScribe

I recently started training with AccuScribe, and I was wondering if there is anyone else who is working for them? I have searched and searched and haven't really found any information on them. I don't know whether that is good or bad?


Any information would be greatly appreciated!
