They hire newbies, heck, they hire warm bodies that have at least 35 wpm typing skills with no med terminology or MT experience. Lots of the employees are in nursing school or _going to apply_ to nursing school.  Don't expect to be able to live off what they pay but it is a good place to stay for a year or so to get some experience and move on to something better.  It is in-house only.  Most of it is editing voice recognition and the rest is regular transcription.

I was actually interviewed there several years ago when I had very little transcription experience. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I was not hired. It was probably for the best anyway.

We are suppose to be using Notes Link. I have never used it before so I am not sure how....sm
friendly it is. 
Andrews link is wrong
The link that you posted for Andrews takes me to a site called Career Step. Are they the same? According to what I looked up they are not. Why is the link going to the wrong site????

Thanks
Researching a wrong link
Being able to research is very important for an MT. It is never too early to begin. Try to find the Andrews website yourself by entering various keywords. On this site you can also do research. A lot of information about the top 3 schools can be found here. If you still have questions after gathering information, then you can approach the schools directly. Also go to the AHDI website where you will find information about schools. After doing all the above, then come back and ask specific questions so that we can give you specific answers. Being an MT is a hard job and constant learning.
pls read hipaa link supplied above and.....sm
read the AAMT BOS....but bottom line, that poster Suzanne was right about one thing.....it's the client's wishes that count......you can only inform the MDs of the new changes in HIPAA and BOS but you cannot make them do anything they do not want to do...

best MT online course
CanScribe - they provide you with books and supplies, as well as programming and guarantee you a job at the end of it. Agencies know that a graduate of CanScribe is worth a chance.
online vs local job

Where I live the local votech school has a very high placement rate and if I wanted to work in house, I would start by taking their MT course. My local school's course is far from complete though, and there is no way a national company would hire me with just that course and no experience. 


I have no idea what the local employers would think about an online program.  We're kind of in the sticks and they really rely on the local tech school to pump out grads that can do the work the local companies need them to do.  Its practically tailored to the needs of the local economy.


I'm going with an online program because I want to be sure I can gain employment, and I want thorough training.


Not sure how much this helps.


my experience in online MT course

Hello everyone,


Just thought the information on my website will be helpful and/or interesting to anyone who is thinking of trying medical transcription cource.


it's here


http://www.volkovs.com/family/julia/default.aspx?p=mt


Considering that most colleges are going online
this advice doesn't hold water. It doesn't make any difference what format the program takes.
Can someone tell me what the online schools

Career Step, M-Tech, Andrews - I have a family member who is interested in getting her daughter directed on a career path (she's 18).  I'm not so sure MT is for her, but I'd like to at least give her some basic info.  So, how much do these programs cost and how long do they take? 


  Thanks!


I took their online test on 8/21 and just
heard back from them yesterday. The lady I talked to there told me that she is really behind on contacting people. When did you apply with them?
help for finding right online course
I have tried to get info on online courses and it is very hard, since i have no other MT friend to talk to.  I was told to take courses from Ashworth(formerly PCDI)  Does anyone know about this one?  Seems like everywhere i turn, Career Step is always the most talked about.  I realise they all have pros and cons but someone please help!!!  Want to do at home training online.  Had a year experience of part-time transcribing and did fine.  Barely told what to do, but completed it anyway.  I've had EXPERIENCE THE HARD WAY by doing this.  Thanks
online quizzes

It's important to keep studying and practicing right up until you land the job you studied and worked so hard for. Time away from your studies will nevertheless, leave some cobwebs in your mental attic.


I've started to assemble some online quizzes (free) so students can keep learning. It's so new in fact, I have one done.  lol  But I intend to put some more out there if the response is good. I need a beginner and one who will test this out with me and for me. It would be nice for the others if we can get this in the right direction.


visit: www.gotranscribe.com  and click on MT Learning Studio for instructions.


I'd appreciate it and so would some of the others if it works as I think it could.

MT Online Schools
I am looking for an online school for MT. Forgive my ignorance about this. I have no clue where to start.

Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thanks.
Online MT schools??

Hi.


I just signed up for Allied MT School.  Have any of you graduated from there, and did you like it?  Also, did you have any problem getting a job after graduating?  I am a bit discouraged with some of the negative reviews. 


Thank you.


 


Online Externship
I am a transcription student looking for an online company that offers an externship. I have to complete an externship in order to graduate, but need to do so online, and am having trouble finding an online company that would be willing to take me in. I have searched for transcription companies,but have not found any that advertise any externship opportunities. Are there any companies offering online externships?

Online Course suggestion
Hi,
Can you please suggest me online MT course which is not expensive.

Thanks & Regards

online test
Don't feel bad - I've done transcription for over 25 years, had a CMT for 15 of those years... took an online test with MRC (Medical Records Corporation).  I did the test, waited for two whole weeks... they never got back to me until I asked them what the hel_ was going on and they told me I failed the test - would someone explain that to me?  My audit score for the company that I am currently working for, is 97-98........
online tests
I also took the Medquist exam after they sent me an email requesting that I take it.  I felt very confident that I did well but was told I did not pass.  They said to take it again in three months, which is now.... and now I have no confidence at all to do it.
CS online training
Hey all you MTs. My wife started the classes with CS about a month and a half ago, and I will say we were really nervous about it at first also...The staff is really professional, and they have a very competitive rate for their schooling. WHat I WILL say is this:
Online schooling for any career choice is daunting. I went to Law school online, and it SINKS when you have a question to ask and nobody to ask in person. It is also very easy to ignore the schoolbooks and just watch tv or sleep in.
As with anything, its all about what you put into it. Career Step has gotten a lot of rave reviews from alumni, so I wouldnt worry about how good of a school it is. You should be more cautious about the MT employers out there lately!

Online that hire newbies
Does anyone have any resources for new 'graduates' of home study/unpaid internship training in transcription to find online companies that hire newbies to work from home? Thanks for your help! :)
Last night on Lifetime was an online....sm
Last night on the Lifetime Channel was a 2006 movie called Fatal Desire with Anne Heche and Eric Roberts and it was just about this, meeting online......it was a good movie...just repetitive to me about how these bad things do happen online and the ending was AWFULLY shallow and dumb, but the movie, in general, was a true story about this woman named Tanya Sullivan who ended up with a life sentence in jail......
financial aid for MT online school
I am currently pursuing a career in medical transcription. I have been searching the net for over six months for an online course. I have applied to Fafsa "Pell Grant" for many schools which offer the online transcription course. Unfortunately all of the courses are listerd under "continuing education" which apparently is not covered by federal funds.  At this time I am unable to pay for my education, but it is something I want badly. If anyone out there knows of any online MT schooling that can covered by financial aid, please let me know. Also, if anyone knows of any funding that is available for this course, that would help me tremedously.
Online Training Schools

I am looking for good online training MT schools that offer good quality education along with practise sessions and also job assistance. I am new to MT field and have gone through some of the discussions about top online schools (Mtec, CareerStep and Andrew).
For those who have taken courses from this schools (and have got jobs), can you tell me what makes it to take this online courses and why.
also which would come first interms of payling less and getting most of it?
which other online training institutes can NE considered?


Any kind of help, assistance would be greatly appreciated.


thanks



Kaplan & U of Phoenix online?

Anyone have any opinions, hear anything about these two online MT training programs?


I already have an Associate's so it would be nice to get a BA from U of Phoenix. I haven't received their info pkt yet.


 


Thanks for any info.                     -MKJ


Try a good online school -
I graduated from M-Tec in 2001, had numerous offers to test before my actual graduation, passed all the tests I took (I believe it was 4),and had a job before I even had my diploma in my hand. I have been happily employed at home doing acute care ever since! Check them out! :-)
online testing question

I can ace the objective parts of online tests, but when I get to the transcription part, I'm never sure whether they want you to just type everything verbatim--even if the dictator stumbles over words, corrects himself/herself mid-sentence, or really needs some punctuation for clarity's sake--or if they do, in fact, want you to edit "on the fly." Any advice is appreciated. Thanks very much!
