On AOL I can determine who I want to receive mail from and block those I do not  -- and if they are blocked  they get their E-mail back as being "undeliverable".  If she sends things out -- send back --unaccepted.  But to be simple just E-mail her back or call the recuriter if you don't want to deal with her directly and state -- leave me alone.  If she is in another state you should not be scared of her but you may simply have to put it out there in no uncertain terms.

Hi, there - I'm actually in the Midwest, but have the capability to handle uploaded dictation, and am definitely interested in taking on a new account.  Do they require the MT to be located in their area?

Theresa

what are some of the negatives, if you wouldn't mind sharing...I was actually thinking about applying at a state hospital, and there seems to be a lot of good reasons to take the job.  So, I would appreciate your input on some of the things I might want to be aware of before making my decision.

Thanks!

Ok for my headings I have hpiub which will expand to "HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS:  " all in bold letters.  Is this what you mean by a macro or do you mean to actually set up a macro in MS Word?

Thanks

this.  Is it hard to learn?  I know I probably sound ridiculous but I take it we just have our headsets on and dictate what the doctor dictates, right?  Can you edit as you go along, such as putting in addresses and such?  This is intriguing to me.  Does it end up saving you lots of time in the long run? 

Thanks for any information you can provide.  I would love to have one of these, I think.

I was reading on another board...   The problem with the larger companies was switching from account to account to account.  However, learning the account specifics (or at least printing them so you can refer to them) should not be that hard.  I want to know what is so hard about jumping around? I work 7 accounts as an Editor and never have been able to figure this particular "gripe" out.  Docs are docs are docs.  No matter what hospital they are at.  Reports don't change that much.  How hard is to jump from to another? I just don't see why this is such a problem.  Your paycheck should not be an issue, because as an MT you should be able to transcribe any doc out there.  If you really have an issue with this, you might want to rethink what you do for a living.

But in saying the above, just for a note, I don't understand these MTs that can only do 800-1000 lines in 8 hours either.

I am an older MT (16 years) and have had to do all of it.  Never thought once about any of it except do my best at it, learn from it and then excel at it. 

I use the number 8 key for my ectomy words.

For examply.  Appendectomy is programmed as a8

Cholecystectomy c8

Hysterectomy h8

Tonsillectomy t8

You get the idea.  In the rare instance that this interferes with another word (i.e. T8 on a spine exam.  I type t8n which means (NOT) so it will expand to simply T8.

instead of using the semicolon, I do pretty much the same thing but with the slash / on the right side of the keyboard.  I use this pretty much when i can divide words such as t/a  therafter.  u/w  underwent   u/g undergone l/h lightheaded.

for family members I use the number 9. For example,

 b9 is brother s9 is sister sil9 is sister in law d9 is daughter gm9 grandmother gd9 grandaughter.

I use the letter z quite a bit to just to phonetically shorten words.  For example.

dz disease  anz aneurysm rz resolve rzd resolved rzg resolving bz because czd caused czg causing etc.  If i here a "z" sound in a word I take advantage of it.

My psych words take the prefix nut. nuts is psychosis nutc is psychotic  lol.  Cute, I know, but I never forget these.

For really common words that I type a zillion times:  AR anterior pr posterior ll lateral ml medial I try to make these as short as possible.

KEEP THE TIPS COMING.  This is great to share.

Hi--

I am a high school social studies teacher whose salary is so low I can't live off it.  I am looking for a part-time job that I can do from home and am interested in MD transcription but I'd like to find out more about the job first.

I've looked around the internet and found much conflicting information.  I've seen pay ranges from as low as $8. per hour up to a high of $40. per hour and want to know what I can really expect.  Also, can I easily get a job working from my home?  I already have a graduate degree.  Do I still have to go through the official training for MD transcription or can I get a job and do on the job training?  If I have to train, how long does it take and how much does it cost?  Will paying for and going through the training virtually assure I'll get a job?  Also, what schools are the best/least expensive? I don't want to get ripped off.  Could I work at this job from home as little as 10 hours per week?

I guess what I really need is some direction to a web site, or book to help me work through this process to determine if I really want to do this.

Is there someone out there who can direct me?

Thanks.

one should make after 19 years?  I ALWAYS short-change myself and would love to know how to know when it is okay to push for more and when it doesn't matter because they won't go any higher.  A couple of weeks ago, for example, somebody said Diskriter offered them nearly 10 cpl, but I had 18 years of experience when I interviewed with them last year, and they said 8 cpl was as high as they would go.  If I had said, no thanks, I have to have more per line, would they have gone higher?  Somebody explain to me how to negotiate...  I would hate for my paycheck to be 20% less because I'm not savvy enough in this regard.
