I gave two weeks notice... but stopped doing their work FIRST
Since they refused to give me a raise after 7 years of loyal service to 3 doctors full-time, i gave me 2 weeks but didn't do their work in my 24-hour TAT window because I was SO p*ssed. I got it done "on my time" at that point. I have a hot head i can't help it... plus it was a huge slap in the face when not only they weren't giving me a raise, they expected my paychecks to decrease because they were mad they were paying for templates! we seriously were like a little family... that was three months ago and im STILL hurt about it...
I use ESP and mine stopped just

I have a question.  How do you have 2 list open at the same time?  I can merge 2 list but I don't know or see a way to have 2 separate list open. 


p.s.  This is a work computer, not my PC, so the software may or may not be the same.


Yup, mine did that a few years ago. New battery fixed it right up. Be sure to write down your setti

it would take WAY longer than 6 weeks for mine! nm

Mine held back two weeks and pays
every two weeks, so we submit invoices on the 1st, and the previous two weeks check is mailed on the 1st. Two week pay periods. I agree with the others....I would never agree to wait until the MTSO got paid to get MY pay.
The sister of a co-worker of mine passed away a few weeks before Christmas. Can I still send a *sm*
sympathy card without looking stupid.  I have been off on medical leave and various reasons have kept me from getting the card out but I really want to send one. 
google glitch
I heard on the radio this morning that Google is malfunctioning and giving error messages, indicating that every searched-for web site is dangerous or something, and they are working on it.
Hi! I'm the one who never has had a glitch, and I'm on XP with service pack 2! Maybe that's
Honestly, it is the fastest smoothest platform one could imagine - seamless, really. Never a problem - sound quality is perfect. I hate to say that, cause I'm not a MQ devotee, but the platform is truly awesome!
MODERATOR - glitch in the system again?
my avg quaranteens 'it' but there is nothing there in my quaranteen jail. there is no virus.

the webmaster fixed it once, the pesty thing is back and,I don't know, but with all that has been happening, could be an aggravation by someone with a grudge. Just my opinion, tho, considering.

you are safe and they will get rid of it....again.

Then I guess, it is just a computer glitch...sm
maybe you have to reboot your computer.
If you cannot do it, sleep on it, tomorrow it will work again.
Apologies all around, we experienced a glitch that caused
the content on the inside of the post to not belong to the original job ad post. The error has been rectified.
not a virus, a glitch. if you run a scan regularly, you would see no festations. NM

My kid stopped going at 18.....SM

She liked her pediatrician so much she stayed until 18.....


Re QA, has anyone stopped
looking at their edited reports? I simply cannot do it anymore. For 18 years I have been transcribing medical reports, and the more I type the worse QA seems to think I am. It is to the point I cannot bear to look at my reports anymore...it is crazy with tiny little errors and it only makes me sick, literally. Then if I want to take 1/2 hour out of my time I can relisten to all my reports, and 8 out of 10 times it is a 50-50 chance of who is right but of course it is always the editor. I get through the 'grunt' work, piecing together a puzzle from some horrendous dictator, with a 99% completed report, send to QA for 1 blank, and it comes back with 3 or 4 ridiculous noncritical errors which matter nothing to the content of the report, and all because someone was able to 'listen' against my already typed report (aww, that is so hard!) and found 'is' where it is totally questionably there or not, and I am sick of fighting it anymore. I have spent WAY TOO MUCH time worrying about this ridiculous stuff. What I want to know is: Does anyone else not look anymore, and how much can it hurt. There are editors who just want to mark off for something, anything, and make a name for themselves it seems even at the expense of ruining someone's QA score. How about I just stop looking and let a manager fire me one day because my score is down...who cares anymore. I will not even respond to posts with the attitude that we need to provide quality to the customers blah blah blah - hey, if hospitals wanted quality the work would NOT be going overseas to ESL transcriptionists in the very first place, nor would capitation be in place and all the woes that has brought, nor would our personal information be 'out there' floating around so some day it can be breached. That argument is totally lost on me. American MTs get constant abuse from not only the dictators but again also from editors, all the while reports come back from India or elsewhere with never a care or problem from hospitals at their quality or errors...oh it is a big joke all the time how many errors they make but that is okay, that is acceptable for them. For us - look out, you are constantly harassed and repeatedly tormented on a daily basis over this. It is not right, it just is not right.
I might have fixed it....
After I was able to get the links to show up again, I then saved the page in "Favorites" (deleted my old link that was there) and now when I click on it from my favorites, the links are continuing to show up on the left side/blue area - so far. LOL. We will see if this lasts now. :D
I really think it is fixed! sm
I tried voting for Chris on Tuesday night and I could NOT get through at all! I honestly believe that they did not want to send Katherine home because that has the potential of losing the male audience! How many guys sit around and want to watch 3 guys sing? I truly, in my heart and soul, think the entire thing is bogus. Although, he is really and truly talented and I think he will definitely be selling records in the near future, which I will gladly buy!!!!! JMO HE SHOULD HAVE WON IT ALL!!!!
Thank you so much... I fixed it.

It's Fixed Now!
Thanks for notifying.

MTStars Support Team.
Thanks we fixed it.
It was on my kids computer; not mine.  My daughter was playing a game, and the letter keys wouldn't work.  It's a Logitech Cordless (cheapo) and I downloaded software from the site, and then my son pulled the plug on the optical eye, plugged it back in, and it now works!  Thanks....  Everyone!!!! 
I stopped letting them do that.
Too many times they had inexperienced techs who messed everything up.  Once my computer crashed because of what they did.  Another time, another company, they deleted a program and nothing would work right.  Just because they say they are a computer tech does not mean they know anything.  Many do not even have a certificate, just a litle on the job training. 
That was a while ago and they stopped docking pay.

OE problem fixed!

Just wanted to let you know that I just did a restore (a quick 10 minute fix) and my OE works fine again! Apparently I had some corrupted files. I was very hesitant on trying this in fear of files I might lose (particularly work ones) but everything appears fine so far.


I am just So upset that I wasted SO many hours  trying to fix this!


Here's how I fixed that...not to say it will work for you.
I work as an IC for a large service. I went through the misery for about two weeks after getting a new doctor who was either too lazy or too clueless to give the demographic information needed. I swear that I spent as much or more time looking up old reports if the dictation was for a followup, etc., as I did typing the darn report. I said forget this. Every time he left out the SS#, MR# number, DOB, or did not spell a name, I used my highlighter on the tool bar and typed in "not given". It took him about one week of getting reports back to his office where one of the office staff had to look the info. up or give the report to doctor to fill in missing information. I made him as irritated as he made me. About one week later, and to this day, he very rarely misses any pertinent info. I ran this through the MTSO before I highlighted, and explained to her that when I ran my own service, there is no time or tolerance for doctors who fail to give pertinent information on an important medical record. Any MTSO who pressures you otherwise to waste your precious time on this is not worth working for! Good luck to you!
If not identified, it will never be fixed!
I don't want to crucify them for making an error.  I want the error to be known, noted, and corrected in future editions! I also want to be aware of any other known errors in this publication so I will not bilindly follow the book and make the errors they are providing, considering I have PAID for their PROFESSIONAL guidance!!   Is that unreasonable?
Fixed wireless.
Has anybody had any experience with this. We have a company providing this close by. We only have dial-up and satellite has such bad reviews. I am trying to research any possibility.
Fixed wireless
I looked into this in IL when I lived for a short time in a rural area -- VERY expensive and if you rent, its a hole and mounting "a permanent structure" -- also, you are locked into a contract with that as well and not everyone has radio towers available or in the area -- frankly, the newer cards are a better alternative.
Hey, got it figured and fixed!
I went to the Nuance/Dictaphone web site and looked at their information base and lo and behold, there was the problem and solution. Apparently it's common with Windows XP or 2000 and they recommend a particular file download, DPVoicer1132.exe. I did that and ran it and after rebooting, problem fixed!

Thought maybe an update might help someone doing a search on here in the future.
I FIXED IT... see link...
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA101055371033.aspx#1 I followed these instructions, and wahlah!!! :)

I will print your suggestion as well. I watched a demo on Word earlier and it is so "full" (for lack of a better word). I am so impressed with this edition!!

Thanks to all!!

macro - fixed
between windows & mac, something got squashed in the file name reference. Let's see if it pastes cleanly now.

Make sure you create a text file c:
eplacetext.txt and put the entries in the format specified

findthis|replacewiththis
teh|the
mjsmithx|Michael J. Smith, MD,
HIPPA|HIPAA
etc....

Note - if you want to change the file name or location, change the corresponding OPEN statement in the macro below. Also, if you want to change the delimiter character from the hardcoded (single pipe) value to something else, change the delimchar line below and the text file accordingly.

You can insert this into a module in your normal document template -- or in a specific document or template if you don't want it in Normal -- post here if you need more details

This will run through every entry in the text file and make the corresponding replacement in the target document.


Sub replacemulti()

Dim TextRaw, FindText, ReplaceText As String

Dim delim As Integer

Dim delimchar As String


delimchar = "|"                 'Must be a single character for this version.

Open "c:
eplacetext.txt" For Input As #1    ' Open the find/replace source file.

Do While Not EOF(1)             'Loop until end of file   
Line Input #1, TextRaw      'Read file, one line at a time
   
delim = InStr(1, TextRaw, delimchar, 0) 'Get the position of the delimiter

 FindText = Left(TextRaw, delim - 1) 'FindText = text to left of delimiter
ReplaceText = Mid(TextRaw, delim + 1, Len(TextRaw))  'ReplaceText = text to right of delimiter
'Do the replacement

Selection.Find.ClearFormatting

    Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting

    With Selection.Find 
.Text = FindText
.Replacement.Text = ReplaceText

.Forward = True
       
.Wrap = wdFindContinue

        .Format = False

        .MatchCase = True

        .MatchWholeWord = True

        .MatchWildcards = False

        .MatchSoundsLike = False

        .MatchAllWordForms = False

    End With

    Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
Loop

Close #1    ' Close file.

End Sub

1914.  But hope you find one anyway!  Main thing is be happy with yourself and your life.  Funny thing is years ago my son wanted a fish tank, so we kept upgrading to larger sizes, going from 5 gallon, to 10 to 35 and then 40 gallon.  At that point, I told my son, "I will not get a larger tank because I will not get married just to have a man around to carry that ding-dong tank!!"  That is the way I live my life; what I can handle and what makes me happy and trying not to have to depend on a DH to help.  Maybe one day, I'll find a good man just to hang around with.  Have a beautiful day!! 
I took Relora but stopped. What really worked was sm
eliminating all the refined sugars and "white" carbs from my diet and beginning a sensible exercise program. I had my cortisol measured and it was through the roof. After adhering to this type of diet since last March, I have lost over 30 lb and have really gotten into exercise and am training for a 60 mile bike ride next month.
Hmmmm...they stopped with the stamps here

Yes, especially since my printer stopped talking to me.

believe me, outsourcing out of the country will be stopped soon. sm
Do you know how many U.S. doctors or clinics who contract with a US transcription co. who outsources actually know their patient's confidentiality records are leaving the country? ...very few. These docs are clueless, not by their own fault, but by the deceiving company who represents themself as a U.S. based co. (which may be true). However, they fail to "share the info. with the doc" informing them "by the way, we send your dictation to India". This info. IMO has just started to surface for access by physicians. If HIPAA passes the strict regulations on patient confidentiality, you don't think there's gonna be a big crack-down on this? U.S. MT's and honest US based transcription companies need to ride the bumps in the road now because things will get better for us. We are not talking about outsourcing work to China to sew shirts to bring back to the US dept. stores, we are talking about patient medical records. I was once a small MTSO, and I can say with 100% certainty, I would not take the legal chance of playing with patient medical records by sending them out of the country, not to mention taking jobs away from US MTs. If MTSOs were not outsourcing, our pay scale would go up and you could probably find better employees who were willing to work harder, thus reducing your costs for editing, etc.
I stopped by the office and everyone was way too polite.
The part where she cut off the clinical diagnosis and then typed "love your chest report, great work!" on it was what sent me into a spin.
the only reason I stopped doing local
accounts and tapes is because HIPAA came about and said that tapes being transported were in violation - so I went with a national - and now our information is going to Pakistan, India, Philipines - think we all felt safer with tapes. 
I stopped using artificial anything years ago and
ANYTHING with artificial sweetner of any kind, no matter how far down on the label it is, makes me sick. I get sick to my stomach, get a headache and just feel horrible! I cannot convince any doctor of this and when I went to a bariatric specialist to loose weight he all but told me I was crazy. Even gave me samples knowing they had artificial sweetner in them, but didn't tell me that. I used them, got sick and took them back for a refund and never went back.

I HATE when people (such as grandparents, and well meaning parents) give my kids things with artificial sweetners in them. Especially when they know I am against it.

I live by one word now....MODERATION. If it says anywhere on it "sugar free" it goes back on the shelf. But they are getting better and better about hiding it. Its even hard to find a protein bar without it in it!!!
nevermind...stopped working again.

I stopped going to the doctor since our clinic
decided to outsource transcription services and lay off the entire department. I don't want my medical records leaving this state. If I do need medical care, I'll go to the ER or an independent physician. The problem is that nobody knows or understands what happens to their medical records.
Thanks all. I got it fixed but have no idea how. Think it had to do with my keyboard though! nm

Fixed wireless works well
If you're talking about tower wireless (like a radiowave wireless type), as long as you have it set up to receive the signal well (requires high enough antenna)then you should have a nice, clean connection.

problem with mail fixed
This morning when we tried to download our messages, nothing downloaded. We tried our WebMail function, and got a "Unidentified Server Error". So we thought attglobal.net was temporarily down. Waited till 10 am, and still the same. We call AttGlobal support, and they got things back. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I just got fixed wireless broadband
And I love it! No lag like satellites. I thought I'd never get broadband since I'm a mile from the nearest house but this is a very nice connection.
Obviously it is not fixed if Norton keeps detecing it...

mine keeps detecting it as well.  It will stop for a couple of days and then start in again.


I would like to know what the "glitch" is exactly...


No, had that fixed a long time ago!

No CAD for me, will buy my own CABG. 


My number keypad stopped working
Number lock is on, but it backspaces every time I hit a number.  The numbers on the regular keyboard work.  I'd appreciate any suggestions.  Thanks.
This is of no help, but I stopped working anyplace that required me
