it's all just speculation right now
No one knows anything yet, so it's all just speculation.  The last time they changed the pay structure (when they started offering employee status) I got a slightly better line rate and started getting quarterly bonuses as an SE, so I'll just hope that it's a good change this time, too.
My speculation is that it's....sm

probably a plan that promises you'll receive a discount for health services - sorta like there are some dental plans out there that supposedly offer you a  percentage discount.  If this is true then it's not an actual insurance policy and therefore there's no enforcement by any state agency as well as there is no guarantee that any physician who supposedly signs up today to offer a discount will honor that discount tomorrow as they could come/go with any plan at any time. 


If you call ask that they send you written verifiable information about any physicians and hospitals that supposedly participate, and by "verifiable" I mean that you actually call the hospital, pharmacies, some of the doctors on the list and ask them directly if they are indeed participants. 


 


Honestly, the MQ speculation is

getting so bad about the what if's with the new packages coming out in October and all the speculation, I had this comic flash of all the suits sitting in NJ with headphones on, plugged in,to the big PC's in corporate land just listening to all the "chatter" on the boards...sorta like the CIA supposedly was...can you imagine all the chatter traffic going on until October?


We just need to take a deep breath, try to relax a bit, really nothing we can do until October, then who knows what part of the month we'll all get our packages? 


Believe me, it has worried me to no end, single mom, can't afford much more change, but also can't do a darn thing about it till then.


Lots of speculation on that.
My personal opinion is that new things will be opening up in editing, and there will still be MTing. After all, we are creating EHRs when we transcribe. Basically, the difference is that it stays in a computer instead of printed files.
This is idle speculation, unless you know what else they have contracted
to do besides straight MT typing of the report only. There are so many other services to the client that can be rolled into that line rate that it is very silly to make assumptions based on the little bit of information this linked reference gives us.


Pure Citrus. sm
I got a can of stuff at WM called pure citrus.  It is pure orange OIL and it works on ANY odor.
Pure, unadulterated BOLOGNE!!!...or...
would you say "baloney?"  Probably.
My take on that is that alot of it is pure FANTASY.
Just to make my minimum lines, I'm working 10-11 hours days, plus at least part of Sat., and am making about $23,000/year. And I'm not a newbie, either - been at it for over 30 years.
Ignore them - pure ignorance on the subject

Oh man,pure-dee evil stuff! "Worse" when you use

Has anyone used the Eden Pure Heater as a supplement?

I hear Paul Harvey advertise this heater on the radio all the time and I am considering it for our house for this winter. I just wonder how much it might really save us since we use propane to heat and this is an electric heater. It sounds good according to what I have heard and read but obviously I don't really know.


I am in my home office most of the day and thought I could turn our furnace down low as there is no need to heat the entire house when I spend at least 8 hours a day in my office and I am the only one at home during the day. I could just close my office door and use this heater and maybe save some $. We have a 1600 sq. ft. home, one level, and we spent about $1900 for propane last year (including hot water heater and gas cooking stove).  I wore thermals and warm clothes as well as used a snug snack while working but I am always cold and had the thermostat turned up to 72 during the day and 66 at night.


I will post the link for those that might be interested in knowing more bout the heater.


Pure opinion dear. I make an extra 1 cpl with CMT. As well,
I can see that you, however, are an angry, disgruntled person.

Just because YOU didn't get the bennies and YOU can't make a good living doesn't mean the rest of us are doomed to your fate!!


Self Defense, pure and simple. I am leaving this board as of --sm
today because of you and your obnoxious attitude. I know you don't care, but you should, being a *fellow MT*, but everything revolves around you and you always being right. You remind me of KiKi. YOu like to take cheap shots at everybody who does not have the same opinion as you about anything, just as long as you can start an argument and keep it going. You are vicious, rude, crude, and a definite infant. I will pray for you. good bye.
BS pure and simple. Nobody and I mean NOBODY is making $36/hour in this profession.

I have almost 20 years experience and the best I can do on a good day where I have few interruptions and have been chained to my PC for 8 straight hours I can make $20 per hour, MAYBE $25 but that is pushing it.  And I have my own accounts and have used my Expander to death.


Is this Sally Struthers?


It's pure luck anymore, Steveo. The biggest bucks
s
maybe it's just a pure and simple invasion of privacy the poster feels they want to protect.
if you do your job, who cares if poster was released from prison. weren't companies hiring prisoners to do MT anyway and weren't they doing credit card customer service?
