What is the site address?

I think it is his site, "gums" is in the address.

Can you post the web address please?
thanks
No where in my post did I address

I think you need to redirect your comments to the appropriate person.  I was not approving or condoning her actions.  I really don't think this lady understands why everyone is so upset with her (maybe a little thick).  I was simply trying to point out what in her post has made everyone so upset. 


I was also trying to offer some legal solutions to her problems.  Not to mention, that her kids do deserve kudos for serving their country. 


Next time you decide to post, make sure you direct your comments to the right person.  Some people get a little too excited on this board and make comments in haste that are often misdirected, as in your case.


post your email address and I will send links to you (nm).

E-mail address removed; please do not post EM addresses. (NM)

There is a whole post about that on the MTNews board on this site.

Internal Medicine
Are they hiring at all right now?  Let me know.  Am interested in part-time, evenings and weekends.
That is an interesting site. Thanks for taking time to post it--nm

Actually, you are incorrect. People post their feelings on this site
to having to register and give their personal information, IP address, etc. Be pro-AAMT. I choose not to and that is my right. No whining, no complaining...I am just one of those American MTs who doesn't see AAMT as glorious as you do. Also an Old MT.
No use Olympus recorders and post to ftp site-- all automatically
very little investment required in equipment. Just recorder and software. Why duplicate the Internet when it is free?
Family Practice, Internal Med

I like them because of the variety.  With family practice you have everything from Pediatrics to Geriatrics.


 


You can get an internal board for WiFi or you can get a
USB WiFi, but you have to have WiFi availability where you are traveling in order to get WiFi.    I've never done it, but you can hook an external monitor to your laptop so you wouldn't have to carry a desktop (I can't picture how you connect a monitor and still have your computer work because I picture that your laptop is shut, which makes mine shut down).  
I don't think internal med is any more difficult than oncology. n/m

Moved from Sticky Post. Christmas IS celebrated on this site

Moved from Sticky post...


Christmas IS celebrated on this website. If you do not celebrate Christmas, that is your prerogative.  However, if posts celebrating Christmas offends you, you might consider another site as we celebrate Christmas on this website and will do so every single year.  As the owner of this website, I am proud to say MERRY CHRISTMAS in celebration of Christ's birth.  I will not fall in line with others who are being politically correct and I do not expect others who celebrate Christmas to be forced to conform either.  Since over 95% of Americans celebrate Christmas, I do not see what the big deal is anyway.  For those who do not celebrate Christmas, I offer respect for whatever you do celebrate though I may not agree with your belief system.  In turn, I also would hope that you would respect what I celebrate.


Merry Christmas,


Sheri Steadman

Didn't see your post but apparently we agree it is a good site! lol

See post below, about investigating and presenting options, plus web site for spell checkers. NM
see post below, about investigating and presenting options, plus web site for spell checkers.

A somewhat better option, investigating and presenting options, that throwing up one's hands and saying, oh well. Of course they should have a spell checker. the idea about checking if Steadman's will work, even if Word is incompatible, is a good one. Also, the post below adds a reference to a web site that has spell checking programs.

Of course I sound strong. I don't believe in being treated like little girls. We deserve software, just like the programmers do.
Yes, it would be LIMA--left internal mammary artery. nm

I do outpatient ortho, dental, general/internal, gastro, neuro,neuropsych, etc.
so basically a large variety of specialities
Anyone know what a web clock is?..nm

To get your clock back...
Hover your cursor in that area (taskbar) and right click, then select properties, and on the taskbar tab click to check off "show the clock."  That should do it for ya.
She's actually taking meds around the clock for it
Vicodin, Percocet, aspirin, ibuprofen, and drinking.  She has a rheumatologist, but its so hard to get in to see him.  One of her problems is she is really obese, and his first advice to her is lose the weight, taking some strain off her joints.  I feel so bad for her, she shouldn't have to live in pain.  She doesn't have a quality of life.  Maybe it hits people harder than others.  But I would be like you, take a more natural approach so you don't get caught up in depending on pain meds.
I don't trust myself. I set the clock or I know I'd wake up 4 hrs later.

ATOMIC CLOCK website
http://www.time.gov/timezone.cgi?Pacific/d/-8/java

you just have to choose your time zone, and it will give you the currect time.
I get it, "real job" as in you can actually CLOCK OUT AND GO HOME!
I know exactly what you mean.
How do I get my clock back in the taskbar? sm
I removed it long ago and now I want it back and can't remember what I did to remove it!  I looked on the internet but could not find an answer.  I have Windows XP incidentally.  TIA!
sorry... but what is an online punch clock??
i feel so out of it!
That is "web site" in post above. Also, Auto Copy add-on for Firefox will automatically copy
Auto Copy add-on for Firefox AUTOMATICALLY copies what you select (highlight) on a web site to the clipboard.

Then you can paste it in a document.

It just saves the step of right clicking and then clicking on "copy" to put something on the clipboard. Just select it, and it is on the clipboard.

It only works only on web sites-- only copies stuff you select on web sites, i.e. not in other documents.
...and then we'd be on a clock, taking breaks and lunches just like SM
we were sitting in an office slashing throats over the thermostat.
Yes, but I power nap for 10 min (set a clock) and freel great.

What company lets you work off the clock?

I prefer to work off the clock for my extra lines.


I used to have that myself. Feeling dread upon the alarm clock sm
going off. Xanax helps that, too. You should try it. Good luck. I can't wait for this to be OVER!!!
Icon in rt lower screen, by your clock....

Looks like a keyboard and screen, very tiny, set mouse over it and it should say safely remove hardware -- click on it, and it will tell you what peripherals need to be clicked on before removing it.  If your peripheral is a USB and it has been installed before -- no, I don't turn my machine off UNLESS, I need to for it to be recognized -- I have an external hard drive that I have to do that with. 


Hope this helps


I have a computer program that is an alarm clock for this use nm

That's alot more polite than grabbing the clock and
ROFL !!!! ;D
Can someone help with Windows 98 time/clock? I'm losing about an hour a day (sm)

I have Windows 98 and the same computer since 1999.  I have never a problem until this week.  The clock setting is losing about an hour a day.  I reset it every morning, but around afternoon, it's about a half hour off, but night, its an hour off, etc.  I haven't noticed any other problems with any other programs. 


Does anybody have any ideas what is causing this and how to fix it, other than just keep resetting it?


Thanks you guys!


TAKING A POLL-PUNCH TIME CLOCK
Who works for a company that requires you to punch a time clock?
some sort of stop watch or alarm clock
nm
it is some type of time clock application..just wondered if anyone used it.

The clock does play into how much time is spent with patients
The way the CPT codes bill insurance have guidelines for the physicians built into them that give amounts of time spent with the patient (in addition to certain information covered in the ROS/PE), especially in consultations (whether inpatient or out), hospital discharge codes and critical care time (inpatient or out).

Yes, that computer is in fact billing the insurance company because it not only saves not having to pay an MT, it bypasses a billing clerk (eliminating that salary), and if the doctor's office space is paid for by a hospital, that file is sent to the hospital's database where a *scrubber* compares what the MD submits versus coding guidelines. If it is an independent office, the MD can upload all that day's billing before he walks out the door and leave it unattended to update patient accounts and reconcile the days money intake.

In a nut shell, your doctor is no longer just practicing medicine. Your MD is doing the documentation and billing and saving money on two warm bodies.

I understand your concern as I see it more and more in today's medical care, but yes, this is the way things are going. I am fortunate that my MD has been very computer literate for a long time, so the amount of time he spends with his laptop is minimal. Once he enters the info, he kicks his shoes back and we chat and get into a deeper discussion both professionally and personally (we've known each other a long time). Give your MD a chance to play catch up to what he or she is doing with that computer and you should see a more relaxed physician soon.

Good luck.
At one time, someone posted a link for a free clock timer. sm
I've searched the archives but could not find it. It was for timing your actual time spent transcribing. Anybody remember what it was. TIA.
Some people like to keep a Time Clock thing showing on their monitors, too. But

The line rate sounds pretty good compared to other places - by "punch the clock", you mean
it really is not a flexible schedule, even for an IC? That's what I need the most.
Several companies still train on site. In fact, we are piloting an on-site training sm
program, where everyone would come in to the Keystrokes office to train for 1 or 2 weeks. We have a large training room and feel that this may be a way to cover all aspects of an account, be right there to answer questions as they come up and have one-on-one contact.

It will be optional at this point and may not be more effective as remote training, but some people have expressed that they miss the training that you get when you start at a hospital.

We are trying to bridge that gap between working in-house somewhere and working at home.

It may seem out-dated in many ways, but sometimes going back to basics is a good step to take!
