Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

You do as you like, but I can tell you

In Reply to: They didn't tell me they were done - Lisa

that disorganization does not always come from the old MT that you've replaced.  You can type for free all you want.  That's your business.  If this person wasn't smart enough to know that there were dictations already transcribed and just handed it over to you on a holiday weekend to sort out the mess, and now doesn't want to pay, that's a bad first impression of the person handling the work that is supposed to have a handle on things.  I guess she should have checked, but then again maybe she was in a rush to get to her holiday and not worry about it. 


I'm sure they'll pass the word all around that Lisa works for free; try her out!  What would it cost for them in all honesty to just pay you for the trouble since it was their mistake and not yours?  Honestly?  But, hey, if you like working for free, that's your business.


Good luck with that account! 


Why not ask the office how the old MT handled this situation?  See what answer they give ya?


You are all assuming the old MT was the bad one, when in fact it is probably the office; I think it's horrible to have this girl type on a holiday weekend and then come back with well we don't want to pay you know.  Horrible! 


No, I'm not a doormat.  It is actually MTs that type for free that give us all a bad name!  Gee, I wish I could afford to type for free, but I can't, so I won't. 


Do you think a patient goes into this physician's office and says "I've heard this all before from another doctor, so I'm not going to pay you?"  Doubt it!
