We were taught Disc - eyes, Disk - back

Just the opposite: optic disk..intervertebral disc

What letter? And is it company wide

or just in a certain office?


Sounds like total opposite of the company I am working for...
My pay is quite good, rarely talk to my manager, been very flexible with me. Goodness, sure you are talking about the same Medware?
Check at a local nursery/garden center for varieties that are bred for your area, then check online

I always preferred a couple

bong hits while typing... it made the work a lot easier. Not sure I could type while doing alcohol.


I use the preferred version just
I used the standard version for a while and it sucked. The preferred version however has been just fine. Bought mine on ebay.
Her posts are much preferred to yours

looking for MTs from Alaska, Anchorage preferred sm

Husband has brought up the idea of moving to Anchorage.  He is looking at a job there.  I would like someone who has time to answer some questions through e-mail.


If interested, please e-mail me.


 


Thanks,


It is MQ-wide for DQS users?
Well, I sure would hope it would be for SE's too, as some of us also use DQS.  I havent heard anything, nor gotten a letter or check..Im wondering is it MQ-wide?  All of MQ that uses DQS?  Or could it be just certain regional offices did not have the count of lines set up right?
I type a lot of letters, would Dragon 10 Preferred be something that would work well?
Does anyone know if the Dragon 10 Preferred would work for just typing letters?  I was thinking of investing in that product but worry that it may be a complete waste.  Anyone hear or experience this particular product? 
I don't live in a double wide
Oh honey, you got it all wrong. I have the TRIPLE WIDE right next to YOUR DOUBLE WIDE.

Don't be jealous and all because you don't got the triple wide!!!


Usually, it is a system-wide choice SM
that was made and the hospital (one that is part of a greater health care system) must go with the vendor chosen by the system. 
21 wide screen and I love it!! (nm)

My eyes are wide open. Believe me, I know his
faults better than anyone. I can't keep religion of it, though, because it is a huge part of my life. It's not a crutch, it's simply a way of life. I, too, wish you the best. I know we all have our opinions and may not always agree, but that's okay, too. I hope you have a happy 4th, too!
I think is called preferred vendor? Facility gets certain monetary breaks to only use one

Express Scribe users.....what are your preferred Playback settings?.....sm
I am starting to use this and would like to optimize the settings.  TIA
Personally, I preferred a KVM box that had a button I pushed to switch back and forth. SM
I had one where you had to use a keyboard macro to switch back and forth and I could never remember the macro and it was a pain.  Now I have a PengHong (I've never heard of them either but it works great!) which is a very simple silver box with two buttons PC1 and PC2.  It also came with two sets of cables.  It was pretty much i-d-i-o-t proof which was exactly what I needed!
Now my momma used a 3" wide wooden cheeseboard on our
behinds.  That puppy hurt!
The worst? pretty wide claim.

AsUtype ~ system wide expander

I LOVE my wide screen. I will never go back. That being said....
I had to do some tweaking of the settings. I went to START, display, and then the setting tab (far right hand side). I have my screen resolution set on the 2nd notch from the word "less" on the left hand side. That is my home monitor.

For work, I have the same resolution setting and then, because we use Chartscript.NET, I can set my resolution different than the default and I set it at 105. That seems to work best for me.

I have also tried maximizing and minimizing the window sizes too. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. I think you need to tweak your settings until you find the one that works best.
Never did TrimSpa, etc. just talking about dieting in general. Slow and steady is preferred way

You could always try doing a system-wide search for a patient you know is on the file and maybe
nm
You undercut yourself, which drives prices down industry-wide. sm
For a hospital, NEVER go under $0.16 per line to start. Most will want to negotiate and the lowest should be 0.14 per line.
you can expect 12.00 - 15.00 hour average, pretty much nation wide.

I wish someone had taught me..
To this day, I still feel uncomfortable and unsure about what to do. If only someone had taught me when I was young! Your boys are very blessed to have a thoughtful parent like you. 
I was taught to use two
and it is hard to change now. Most of my accounts use two, but I also have one account that uses ChartScript platform and I have noticed that it takes out the two and replaces it with one. And yes, I do think that over a period of time, it would make a difference in the line counts. However, that is the platform they use and I cannot change it. I get paid well anyway, so I am not complaining. Glad someone else noticed it though, I thought it was just my imagination
Some of us do, I was taught the same,
disc for back and disk for eye, however, I have to use disk for everything if I want to keep a job, among other asine rules per BOS.
Well, it is called the World Wide Web! Sorry, your post made me laugh! No offense... but duh! nm

Disc must be right because...
ASR always puts disk
yes it is accurate I also was taught sm
5 characters equal one word. Therefore, there are 13 words in a 65 character line.
Makes you wonder what they were taught in sm
high school, though I learned most of this in grammar school.
Proof as I go, was taught this way! nm

Weren't you ever taught that if you
don't have anything nice to say to someone, don't say anything at all? You must like being rude and hateful, and I don't mean just YOU personally, I mean everyone who has to criticise and be rude.
Please let me know if wrong, but I was taught to
always put in the patient's name if a dictator said to instead put the patient. Now here years later we are told by the hospital and now we are told to put in the given name if dictated. I do VR, and I read word by word by word everything on all reports. We are also held to the 98% accuracy be it VR or straight.
I was taught by my mother that
if someone gives you a gift, say thanks even if you toss it out your back door. Some do not get even a $5.00 gift card. It is inappropriate to not be thankful for what you have, get or whatever. I did not get a $5.00 card from my company so the OP got more than me. I am not offended by the lack of a gift, does not bother me at all, I did not expect anything.
It's pretty much world wide that if you have no body you have no crime. Scott Peterson was arrested
Laci's body was found, NOT BEFORE. Not rocket science here. How to you prosecute someone w/o a dead body?
Disc or disk--
I really don't have time to search archives EVERYWHERE.....I tried and am only now more confused.  I cannot afford an AAMT BOS--please we are arguing with our doctor--tell me, is it disk or disk and what page is it on in the BOS?????
Disk or disc
same meaning on both is this just a preferance?
Disc/disk - sm
I agree - disc for bone, disk for eye...been doing it that way for 25+years, never heard any different.
Disc v Disk
I have been told AAMT is disk for vertebrae and disc for eyes. However in the hospital I worked for on-site it was disk for vertebrae and many hospitals I've worked for want disk. Personally I don't understand this ridiculousness in MT work, as both are actually correct. So bottom line is -- ask for a/c you are working on. LOL
Hot debate....I have been using disc for everything....
for over 10 months now and my main account does nothing but spine injections.....either a HUGE lack of communication (MQ?) or disc is just fine by them...not a word from QA or my accounts!! In fact, if you do a Google search for 'spinal disk' you come up with sites with both 'spinal disc' and 'spinal disk', every other one. Better ask you accounts.
disc and disk
I vote for what the BOS-2 says regardless of the negative posts here. Look at the book and you won't have to post these types of questions here.
disc herniation

Thanks to both of you - but could you please tell me how to back it up to a disc?

Thanks
