You just proved our point.
Most certainly the purpose of the govt is NOT to be your parent. Our tax dollars should go to repairing infrastructure, maintaining a military for the protection of our country, creating law, but it sure as heck was never intended to be the financial support for generations of deadbeats and clueless people who take no responsibility for their own survival. Our society is crashing because too many people want Mommy and Daddy Washington to take care of them.
looks like it was an active website at one point, sm
now it is just parked by earthlink. www.jesterstouch.com

Think I saw a blip about Red Tide in N.O. yesterday

Was not dismissed - she proved nothing
Was not dismissed it was denied because it was dealing with IC -- completely different than being dismissed.  She proved nothing except that she pays IC's and not employees.  So this would prove nothing. 
I guess she proved you wrong!! She did it!! ROFL
You analogy is ridiculous.

No degree or certification is required to be an MT, Sandie. How out of touch are YOU?!


Boss sent me a nasty email, I replied and proved she was wrong, and yet no apology. sm

This is not the first time -- she's the first to blast you if she thinks you didn't make your line count, work when you should, etc., but if she makes a mistake, she NEVER says "I'm sorry," or "I was wrong" ... nada!  Most of the time, I just blow it off.  The pay is great, the accounts good, and sufficient work, but other times, I wonder if it is worth it.  I suppose in today's job market, I should just be glad to be employed ... maybe I'm just greedy in also wanting to be treated with professionalism, respect, and courtesy. 


Not sure if I even have a point -- guess I just needed to vent a bit.  Thanks for "listening."   


They are currently not active - nm


When I was active in the....sm
...local chapter of the then-AAMT, I would always say, "If you're a student, you're the most important person in the room today." :)
I believe Active Words can do that.

Unfortunately, we can't please everyone although we try. We run Active X controls
and a few cannot see the left column and we have offered a number of ways to get the left menu to appear. Beyond that, we are unable to help. Administrator
what is the active ingredient?

chipmunks still active...

Should have mentioned in initial post that I have deleted, redownloaded the new EP, and when that didn't work, tried an older version - no luck.  Even the older version is playing just my .dvf files fast.  I think there's a gremlin in my system trying to drive me crazy. 


Thanks so much for your suggestions though! 


Anybody else?


It was active just a few days ago.

When this whole bruha-ha started, I Googled the name as well. The site was up and working, carrying a glowing endorsement from EMDAT as well. Guess the owner decided to take it all down.


The Active Topics page contains
a drop down at the top where you can sort number of days and specific board.
check out Active Words sm
www.activewords.com

It's like a word Expander for "the rest of" your computer. I use it to automate repetitive Windows- or Word-based tasks that would otherwise take a lot of Keystrokes or mouse clicks.

I create shortcuts so that I can type just a few keystrokes to perform any of the more tedious administrative parts of my work.

For example, typing "sendlog" will, for me, automatically create an e-mail message that sends my line count log for the day where it needs to go.

It's really hard to explain, so I hope you don't mind if I just refer you to the web site.
State Boards are Active Now!
Click the Menu on your left.

Thanks,
MTStars Support Team.
They generally are very active dogs who can develop
behavior problems.  Please do a Google search.  He should be excercised daily.  Again, please do a google search and learn as much as you can.  Talk to breeders, trainers, etc.  In the long run you (and he) will be much better off if you take the time now to research and spend the necessary money to learn training techniques.  You might find that it boils down to daily long, structured walks and then play.  You will do great!  Good luck! 
Could you tell me what the active inflammatory lymph nodes mean?
I had a CT abdomen and pelvis last year because I was having pain from Crohn's disease. I have swollen lymph nodes then. I had no other symptoms as in no other lymph nodes that were enlarged, etc. So they did a followup CT a year later, which happened to have been this week. I haven't gotten the results yet. I'm wondering what your active inflammatory lymph nodes mean? Is it normal for some to be enlarged consistently?
The State Board is no longer active - nm

Make sure you are looking in "All Active Templates."

Permethrin and Imidacloprid are active ingredients in Advantix
Says even having a cat bathe a doggie sibling could cuz problems.


I am aware of the religion board, just thought main one would be more active...thanks anyway. nm

I didn't apply, so that's a moot point. The point I was making is that
she's ranting here about something that doesn't even pertain to most of us. You can't come to a MT message board railing at MTs without getting a response. That's why it's not called MTSOstars. Also, it's unprofessional of a business owner to let her emotions overrule her common sense. As for the newbies, they'll learn. We were all newbies at one time or another. None of us was born perfect, not even the MTSO.
You missed my point. My point wasn't perks but prestige...nm
nm
The point wasn't that it was copyrighted. The point the poster tried to make
:(
If the state boards are no longer active, why haven't they been removed so people don't waste
nm
That's not my point. My point is previous owner hired
nm
I do believe she is good enough, and has more than proved that time and time again. NM

For the record,
the solo-practices and smaller offices are outsourcing to the hospitals...


can anyone set the record for

My record is around 45.  Right now i'm on a report that is up to about 23.  Talk about toxic!


re-record
If re-recording to digital, pretty easy. Play either in handheld or transcriber, and use either computer or digital handheld to capture. Just need the connecting cord between two units - can get at Radio Shack.
if it was in my medical record?

It would depend upon whether or not it could have a negative impact upon my medical care. If the doctor dictated something like, "The patient has diabetes" (when I don't), yeah, I would ask them to correct the record. But for something like what was stated originally ... heck no. Let it stay.

But that's me ... I don't have OCD and I'm not anal retentive about this business like others. Never have been and never will be.

I still think you need to lighten up. There's a lot more to worry about in life than something like that.


expunging record
Just a thought -- a friend had a felony from years ago expunged from her record -- but background checks from then on noted the expungement on her record -- which raised red flags in itself.
another broken record...
me too. It absolutely befuddles me that anyone would be trying to get INTO this field, especially with all the ominous signs that are right out there for anyone to see. I think new moms with babes are just blinded by the idea of "working at home" and can't see the competition they are facing.  Me, I am in nursing school... not an easy job by any means...but I'll be good at it and will find my niche quickly and will always have a job! My biggest account is making noise about getting a VR system. If I wasn't in nursing school, I would be having a panic attack instead!
How did he get his record cleared?
You mentioned that he has a "clean record." I still have this thing on from 11 years ago. Did he have to do something in particular to clean his record or did it just drop off?
We all make dumb mistakes at some time in our lives, eh? LOL
Med Record Retention
That's a very broad question. It's my understanding that the answer depends on the State and the age of the patient at the time of service. Liability required juvenile records be kept forever since it used to be a base could be brought when the injury was first noticed, and that could be well into the adult years.
You have to record to the computer
Get a program like GoldWave (I think goldwave.com). You can buy a plug that goes one end in the transcriber and the other in the computer. One end goes in the transcriber earpiece plug and the other goes in the computer microphone plug.

Then play the transcriber while using Goldwave (or whatever) to record from the microphone input. It creates a WAV file or whatever you specify.
LOL. Did you tell your doctor so he could record it? - NM
NM
That particular patient's record
is still confidential information, thus protected. Who knows, there may be contributing factors about that other patient and that is why the name was mentioned. Either way, if it was dictated to be transcribed and fits with the account specs, it is to be transcribed. I've worked for companies that did and did not allow patient and other names in their records, sometimes it just depends on what the client wants.

These 2 companies were just awarded all of VISN 7. Not sure exactly where the split is. Look on VA website for hospitals make up VISN 7.
Why don't you set the record straight Ms. AAMT?
Why are you sooooooo defensive?
Setting the record straight

You purchased an IN-155 foot pedal for compatiblility with DVI VoiceWav.  (We have sold nearly 1,000 of these with zero returns.)


When you called our toll free 800 number for support we told you that the problem was not the pedal and was either the software you were using or your computer.  Reluctantly, we agreed to do an exchange for you.  (FYI, when your first pedal came back to us it worked absolutely perfectly and still does.  In fact it is plugged into the same computer I am typing on at this moment.  It has been tested daily since it came back with no problems).


Now, you voice incorrect information on MTStars.  Your problem is in your computer.   


Please feel free to call us yet again if this is not clear to you.

It is about CLARITY in the medical record.
It makes the medical record easier to read, which means more accurate patient care
Try expunging the felony record. sm
My friend's daughter did this after being turned down for a job at Target. She was an adult. You will need some legal assistance to do it.
electronic medical record nm
/
A.S. in Medical Record Technology
This included a course in Medical Transcription.  Went to work in a physician's office.  My job title was medical records, but the main component of the job was transcription.  This led to later full-time transcription job. 
It's probably an electronic health record.
They probably got an electronic health record where it is basically a point and click system that creates a progress note, does the coding, etc. I think this is going to hurt transcription greatly.
In Microsoft Word, there should be a record
of changes made and who accessed the report and made it. SOmeone with more technical expertise should be able to tell you what you do.
IT users?? Need ideas on how to record (sm)

the rad report MR#s, DVI#s, Accession #s in IT so to save me time.  This is radiology and at times, recording the exam numbers takes longer than typing the report, so hopefully, you understand. 


My idea is to open a daily list on the blank page of the IT screen and then save it at the end of the day.  Does this sound plausible to you?


Thanks for your feedback!

After 5 years, you can have your record expunged. sm
If you apply for some high-level security position, such as law enforcement, FBI, etc., it will still show up, but otherwise, you can trully answer "no" if asked if you have any convictions, etc. You do have to go through an attorney, and I do not know how much it costs.

Hope this helps.
