ROFL ... can you say basket case?!
We're not your enemies just because we're not sounding the alarms like the country is under a bombing attack!

Thought you had to go back to work. LOL

"mean lady, ice lady, flaming monsters"
watch others feel hurt? from my computer? locked away? huh? you have clearly let your imagination run away with any powers of logic you may have had. sad.
Naaaaaaasty lady. Bad lady. Pooh.
(pouting)
I wouldn't use lower case. I'd use upper case. Don't worry about it. nm

Never put all of your eggs in one basket!

Flexibility is the "key" in this profession, and also you have the type of job that not just anyone can do and be good at it.  Schools promise you the world, but they do in all professions.  Life is what you make of it, and that is the true bottom line!  Have fun, and keep typing!  There are so many doctors that like to have a Transcriptionist they can rely on.  Most offices decide once they send it out, to bring it back actually because they don't want to edit their own work!  We spoil them, not the EMRs, and believe me they like that!


Food basket!
When I had my own clients, I would bake cookies, brownies and make candy to bring into the office. Everyone enjoys food and hardly anyone has the time to bake anymore. This would be a very appreciated gift since it comes from the heart and your own hands.
basket of goodies
If you have a Sam's Club or similar, buy assorted muffins there (or other pastry type food) and a really nice bag of coffee, creamers, etc. Dress it up in a basket and tie a bow on it.
Jill H, we have a question about the spa basket you won. Can you

send you email to us (our email is on here).  We have two different choices for the spa basket and want to ask your preference and we also need your phone number for the UPS label. 


Thank you!

Are you joking?nm
zz
You are joking, right!
Calcaneocuboid joint and talofibular joint is correct and has been correct for the past 30 years I am doing this. We didn't call them O connecting words for nothing.
No I am not joking

Work for a company right now who has lots of accounts with NO ESLs....however I am tired of no paycheck on time and the excuse of the clients not paying so they can't pay us for the work we have done.


 


Are you joking or serious?
If serious, would you like to share?
Please tell me you are joking!
.
I really was joking
when I posed it as a question.  It's amazing the stuff the docs say, that we're supposed to catch.  And more amazing is that if I had typed it without questioning, he signed the report without actually reading it and catching the error, which of us do you think would be in more trouble? 
the thing is, I'm not joking
The most wonderful room I ever painted had three very light robin's egg blue walls, one very pastel mint wall, and a raspberry racing stripe of varying widths. The room made everyone smile - the colors shifted as the sun changed position - I loved it!
naw...you must be joking *ROFL....SM

Of course more than just gay people have AIDS/HIV........sheesh -


I was specifically talking about the GAY community going to Mexico in the early 1980s.........nobody else.


 


I WAS only joking, I'm a yr older than U..sm

Sorry if I offended you, I was joking because I'm older and I do read many blogger sites of much older, more journalistic type writers, and famous people who are also bloggers.


Again, sorry for any offense taken, none was meant! 


Please, please, please, tell me you're joking.

I think she was joking? ageist like sexist maybe? (nm)
c
I would tell her this and not be joking, but show her some frustration
I would tell her that the clients are not going to pay for jobs that are not turned in when they are supposed to be turned in and that you need someone that is going to transcribe the reports and have them turned in on time because you are losing money paying her to transcribe reports that the clients are not going to pay for because they are late. Surely, she will understand. Either she has the jobs returned on time or you are going to have to let the client go or hire someone else to transcribe and return the jobs in on time and if she keeps it up, tell her that you lost the account because of jobs being turned in late and that you do not have any other clients available for her to transcribe.
Hope you're joking...nothing more need said. nm

you're joking right? Celine? better than Babs?
Celine HURTS my ears!  OUCH!
You're joking, right? That was WWII, read your history books.

Here's one that I think is pretty complete
http://www.bioreference.com/profiles.htm
Yep, I'm a complete tool like that.

I thought as I aged I would grow cojones...the problem is, we moved up here and it's just so far away from friends and family, that when company does show up, planned or not, it is truly a blessing.  I am incredibly lonely up here, and as I work out of a home in a land where I don't know ANYONE except my immediate neighbors, friends have not been easy to make and, well, you can see why I have so many postings on this board. 


So, I guess I'll continue to treat people as I wish to be treated...with a big hug, a warm smile, and a "I'm so glad you were able to stop by"...and then stress out and drink black coffee laced with 1/4 pound of suger catching up on work while they sleep soundly.  I only got this one life, so I might as well try to squeeze everything into it with at least a calm and cool outer appearance    ;-)


 


EMR just means they are going to complete
EMR is electronic medical record, meaning it's all on the computer, without a paper record. Why does that eliminate the need for a transcriptionist?
Complete was of my time...
But I had entered a webpage trying to land accounts. No luck WSE! IMO. Good luck.
Wow, the complete series!! (sm)
You'll be busy for days!  I'd love it too, cause there are some I missed, but I figured I will rent one season at a time, or buy it if I can find a good price.  Never shopped on ebay before.  Happy viewing!!
Once you complete your training
you will have a an idea of what types of reports you have an affinity for. Some folks like acute care, others clinic work. There are those that adore radiology and detest long ops or sub-speciality consults that may require a lot of research and verification. Others feel just the opposite.

As far as software, I am not really sure what you mean. There are different requirements for different companies as far as platforms, etc. Every one has its pros and cons.
As for as reference materials, some folks like electronic references and some prefer books. Others use reliable web resources.

You will want to avoid any convoluted line counting methods to assure fair compensation and be aware of exactly what you do and don't get compensated for, but that kind of falls into the getting ripped off category.
Before he turned into a complete idiot.
I haven't seen any of his recent movies since he split with Nicole Kidman.  Of course, I saw "Days of Thunder" and "Far and Away".  Read the whole post, then try taking an English comprehension course.  Troll.
Boy I cannot complete a sentence my posts look like VR

Here's one veggie family, complete
with grandkids now.  All 8 of us.  I have a Tofurkey and also an Unturkey in the freezer for Thanksgiving.  Also, my pet turkey Bubba just died last week of natural causes, he weighed about 50 pounds.  His wife, Bubette, is still alive and well.  I always gave them extra treats on Thansgiving.

I would think complete darkness would be a bad idea.
Funny you should mention this because last night my son walked into the living room and turned off the light while I was working. He said he wanted it off while watching TV.

At first I felt like I couldn't see anything. After a few minutes, my eyes adjusted, but I had to turn the light back on because the brightness of the monitor compared to the darkness of the rest of the room actually began to hurt my eyes.

I guess it doesn't bother some, but I would think it wouldn't be very good for your eyes over time.
I do believe the JC is only concerned with files being complete as in
up to date - not gramatically correct.


Get involved? With AAMT? You've got to be joking. What an incredible waste of time.
It wasn't ALL that and it was expensive no matter.  I'm sick of hearing the same old blather and seeing NO change that benefits AMERICAN MTs.  I'm in California so it was nothing for me to hop from the mainland, but EVERYTHING on the Hawaiian Islands is expensive.  Of course, the Modesto Mavens were there in all their AAMT glory. Can you say PUKE?  Sorry, but that's the way I feel about it.  I went to see if anything had changed, REALLY changed, and most of it was a big bunch of double talk.  Oh, and to think that I actually thought that I might interject in conversation!  Boy, was I wrong.  I'll never attend another AAMT convention again in my life. What a waste of time and money.
ASR isn't successful? Its like 100% a complete success! Are you kidding?

MQs speech rec technology is sweeping the industry. Just run a Google, dear poster, and get your facts even remotely straight before you post!  Radiology speech rec is a HUGE success, as well as their acute care. What planet have you been living on? It needed perfecting, and, well....Its nearly there! Post facts if you must - much better than completely false ignorant claims.


Well, some accounts call for complete sentences for all. sm

Other accounts call for no abbreviations, spell out everything.  So, if the account specifics call for it, the MT is to do it.  It is not always the MT or MTSO. 


 


No, I'm afraid I'm a complete and utter dork...

And the really dorky thing is - I graduated from hi school in 1976 - I'm not even IN the "60's generation." If loving the Beatles makes me a dork, then, well - just call me Captain Dork!


Peace out, dude.

I was joking, cause the poster I responded to made a HUGE typo in a tiny sentence!

I tell a complete stranger my whole life history practically.
I'm suddenly realizing that I have isolated myself and that I have no real friends and the only adult conversation I have is with my DH.  While I love by DH dearly and he is my bestest friend, sometimes you need other conversations/relationships. 
Yes, sort of. He isn't fast, but he is very careful and complete and polite ...
which can save time in the long run, especially when I'm typing mammograms.
The both offer a pretty complete line, but I do like the Sted's. nm
