    No reasoning with an idiot, so I won't try.
    lllll
    If I'm an idiot you're an uneducated turbo-idiot

    At least I have the brains to see when it's time to change directions instead of crying about those bad, bad MTSO's and their foreign employees. Boo, hoo, hoo!



    reasoning
    I am talking about my own experience, but that is not all I am talking about. I would like to know where you got your information as to the "industry as a whole" because I strongly disagree with that statement and suspect you are also speaking from your own experience. I know many people such as myself who hold a CCA credential and are working in coding depts in major hospitals and other settings. Also, where did you get your 70% failure rate info and where on the AHIMA web site does it say there is a problem with employers accepting the CCA? The failure rate is actually somewhere around 40%, 2006 was about 46%. Much of that is because people attempt to take the exam without the requisite experience. The CCA was designed specifically because before testing for the CCS credential it is recommended that a person have 3 years of experience. CPC may be something more common in whatever area you live but I can tell you that in the area I live, which is a very large metropolitan area, we do not have CPC-credentialed coders in our hospital coding areas. If you check the AHIMA journals and read ads for coders, you will find that the great majority require AHIMA credentials (CCA or CCS). Same is true for Advance for HIM, etc., as well as local hiring practices in this area. We do find the CPC in clinics and physician offices but not med rec depts, and oftentimes they are hired with the caveat that they will earn an AHIMA credential within a given time period. Yes, my experience, but don't discount it just on that basis. It represents what is happening in my locale.
    Now there's some convoluted reasoning.

    All professions expect to be paid. If you didn't pay your doctor or dentist and then asked for an appointment, you would be refused until your bill is current. Your trash doesn't get picked up if you're behind on the bill, the car gets repossessed if you're not pay on it, etc.


    The idea that you should do work so that the patient doesn't suffer is just ridiculous. The patient had their appointment and paid for it. They got what they needed/wanted and you can bet the doctor was paid.


    You should IMMEDIATELY cease working for this office until you are paid, period. By continuing to work for them without them being current only shows them that you are a push-over, not a professional at all. Get some backbone and contact this office immediately.


    Warn but give no reasoning.....

    This is extremely dangerous reasoning. SM
    It isn't what the "suits" are saying, it is what they are doing.  These are two totally different and separate entities.  My God, are you so complacent that you cannot even take a look around and see the face of the future?  No one is telling anyone to not just "be happy."  A little foresight and present thinking is imperative, not only in the MT world but in many other areas of business, especially IT.  It's all going over to Asia and it's all same-same there. 
    I don't see the reasoning for 15c for ops and 12 for acute care.
    discharge summaries and consultations when PAs and physicians are shuffling papers, trying to find lab data, etc.  Once trained on ops, it's the best moneymaker work type an MT could have.  DS and CON = wasted air time and should be paid higher than ops, IMHO. 
    Your reasoning does not make illegals ok, still
    x
    and you could have just as easily skipped my posting by that reasoning
    Okay, Message Board Police. Next time I decide to express my opinion I'll run it past you for permission first, okay?

    Amazing
    and all that is in your post to back that up is a red face for reasoning?
    ??
    Just give up...no point in reasoning with an individual who does not want to understand. nm.
    nm.
    IDIOT!!!!
    nm
    What an idiot.
    Then what are you doing coming to the MT board if you are not an MT. I never said that I am most MTs! Read what the OP posted and then read mine. Are you stupid? I won't need any luck in finding a job. Worry about yourself and get a life.
    Your not an idiot...sm
    You are just giving your opinion. Nobody said she had to take anybodys advice. She can read and make up her own mind. I am glad you were able to remove yourself from that situation and I hope she also finds a way. Have a good day.
    don't think I'm an idiot, but...
    can you tell me what it's called?  I just looked at target online, and the only things I saw were CDs and a toy :)  Thanks a lot for the suggestion and at 10 bucks, I'm definitely looking into it!!
    So I'm an idiot...

    But I thank you for posting information that we all can learn from.  I know very little ctrl commands and this has just helped a great deal.  Thanks!


    Pays to read these posts!


    Well, if you were working for my co., then you'd be the idiot because
    usually the 30 seconds or less are doctors saying, "okay transcriptionist, please use my normal template for a left total knee replacement...left knee...no complications...thanks!

    And then I get 80 lines - can you say CHHEEEEEESE??


    Wow, what a freaking idiot.
    What is there to back up lady? I am coming to this board to see if anyone get the letter and check. I can't back anything up if I have no documentation. All I know is that there is a statement in IPAY and not a deposit into my bank account. I called payroll and that is what they told me. Came here to post it to see what people are saying. You make no sense and I wonder how you even make it out of bed in the morning.
    Drunk idiot at that!!! LOL

    You are an idiot if you think the people
    with the 9 bedroom homes on the beach are the ones needing help. In fact, most homes are not even 9 bedrooms in Florida. Even the real expensive houses are no more than 3-4 bedrooms. Get your facts straight. I am speaking from NOT being on the beach, in Houston. When hurricane Rita came through, we were flat broke after buying water, etc. When we lost power, we lost all of our food other than what we ate during the first few days. Some of us had to work and could not get out 3-4 days in advance. After that, you couldn't get out, and I live in Houston not on the beach!! I would have had to take 2 cars to get everyone out, which we were willing to do. Did you see the freeways. It was taking 24-48 hours for people to make a 4 hour trip! There were animals, kids and adults who died on the freeway trying to get out. If we would have attempted to leave, we would have still been on the freeway when the storm hit. We felt safer in our home. Thank God it shifted East though. You speak out of ignorance, as do most people who are so hateful. It IS the goverment's job to help every American in need. That is our God give right when we pay money into the goverment. The goverment is there to protect their people, and that is part of it. You cannot pick and choose who is worthy! You have no idea what their situation is. As I said before, you speak from ignorance.
    Some idiot will do it though either for experience or

    It's from the internet you idiot

    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.
    No on is an idiot and you should be ashamed of yourself for calling anyone that. nm

    My dad is an immature, selfish idiot.
    Entertained himself by making fun of me and laughing at me when I got upset, doesn't know how to carry on even the simplest conversation, has been telling the same tired jokes for 40 years for lack of anything to say and goes to bed at 2PM because there are people in the house and he can't keep up with a discussion like a normal human being. I grew up with no self esteem and married the first abusive, selfish, hateful idiot that I came across because I thought that was all the better I could do.

    Thank goodness I saw what was going on with me and why and have been straightening out my life for the past 12 years or so and avoid my dad (and the rest of my dysfunctional family) at all cost.

    My dad = a waste of oxygen.
    I refuse to validate the idiot Cruise
    or to enrich him with one penny of my hard-earned money. I will not be seeing his movie or any other project in which he is involved. I feel the same way about Johnny Depp since the horrible, hateful statements he has made about America and Americans. They are free to speak their minds, but I am also free to choose not to reward their hatefulness.
    If you're calling me an idiot, you must be one of the ones I'm talking about.

    The accounts are not out of TAT just maybe the 1 hour TAT some idiot in Amherst came up with to
    probably get a big bonus. Hope they feel good about themselves. Again what should we do.
    It's called being an inconsiderate self-absorbed idiot
    they don't realize how irritating it is for someone to have to listen to that crap. They just don't care.
    You idiot, there are plenty of jobs with companies that DON'T offshore. Go somewhere else and

    quit your raggin on this board. 


    WOOOW. You are the biggest idiot i have ever heard...GET A LIFE!

    Are you watching Fox News. Idiot surfers out in the ocean.

    You're an idiot. You asked for help on a public forum
    then get angry over the responses? OMG, do you even have a life? LOL

    I don't care if you are a mensa or a full blown idiot...
    like MensaMT who tells us she is awesome at everything she does and everything she touches is gold, then you deserve to be flamed! All those things may be true, but come on...nobody wants to hear you tell about how wonderful you are. There are plenty of MTs out there doing all she is doing - with a much less IQ - who don't have to tell a soul!
    You sound like a complete and total idiot! I don't use that word lightly!

    Make money? I'm not making any money because of my decision. You read my reasoning
    You can agree with me or not, but don't make false assumptions please.
    It's not because you're beautiful, it's because you're an IDIOT!
    Does that make it any clearer for you??
