BOS is BS when we remove the O, right?
The BOS used to be a good tool. The new version is horrendous and all the English teachers and professors I had during my education would roll over in their graves if they saw the new rules. I use the old version along with all I learned from the wonderful teachers I had the good fortune to have and quite a few tried and true reference books. I could never take seriously and use advice from a book of style that does not even believe in the complete sentence concept. Sometimes, if there is a serious gray area, I research in current medical journals for the standards used by the PHYSICIANS themselves, not some panel or whatever of bumblers who want to create their own reality. They make a great deal of money from selling this schmuck, so my advice is to get the old book of style and take good care of it, get Stedmans Word Books, use proper grammar, spelling, and research at reliable sites who have nothing to gain from creating an artificial reality in the medical language arena. Now that AAMT is no longer an American organization I have my serious doubts about anything they put forward. As for standards at work so everyone will create a uniform document, I must comment that if those documents are uniformly wrong, then have any of us gained anything? If there are 20 transcriptionists all using the same wrong reference is that progress? Is that good patient care? That is why medical Transcriptionist jobs exist, remember? Another thought, if someone publishes and sells a book that changes the alphabet as we know it, grammar and usage as we know it, or say even the names of everything as we know them would we all run out and buy that and change our language accordingly? Would a wagon then be a Wagun because the new book stated that was the true and correct name? Give me a break. A wagon is a wagon. A complete sentence is a complete sentence. Graves' disease is that way because a guy named Graves discovered the disease. It could also be typed as Graves's disease (but that is funny-looking). He was not named Grave. That is where you go when they bury you, right? That is why it is not Grave's disease.

Thank you for this platform on which to vent my anger and disgust with all of this. My physicians are professionals in the medical field. I produce their documents to reflect their professionalism and to enable them to provide excellent patient care, no matter what BOS says or does not say.
but it does not remove anything....
from the registry, so if the program was set to load anything automatically into ram when you start your computer or reboot it, it will continue to use your ram. You have to go to a technician thant KNOWS how to clean up your registry to get rid of all the remnants of a program. CCLEANER cleans up your hard drive.

Can we remove our glossary from company computer?

I am attempting to move a glossary which I created over 4 years via e-mail which is proving to be difficult as an attachment to use on my PC for a side job.


Is there a company policy that says we cannot do this?  (Spheris).


Yes, they'll have to remove superlatives from the web site
No longer can they put the best, proudest, most dedicated and conscienscious MTs. New PR/advertising will in the future say:

Acusis...our American employees are just average and only moderately concerned with quality, but by Vishnu, our management eats the best samosas and curry a rupee can buy!!
You should ask for samples from (sm)
each person who will be dictating before you decide on a rate. Certain dictators may only need a slight bit of editing where others will need you to transcribe the entire report numerous times before the system gets it right!
samples
I don't have much in the way of samples. You can ask for samples from specific doctors if you have a hard time with them and they can pull some for you.
Why not ask for more samples?
.
I just asked the moderator to remove Denise's post...sm
from the board. Since we all figured that she must be new on this board making such a faux pas, I thought that she does not know how to tell the moderator to remove her post.

Did they give you samples? That would help. SM
I work on a mostly ESL account and prefer them to doctors who talk a mile a minute.

The longer you hear doctors with accents, the more attuned your ears become and, as if by majic, they tend to lose their accent. Give yourself some time and I would strongly suggest your company be more supportive.
You don't need to ask for samples with Extext
Best software program ever.
How easy is it to get samples, etc?
nm
You mean samples of the reports
when you're first starting?
Yes, repor t samples. Thanks :)

So much to take to DC - thank you for all of your emails and samples

The USMLSU folks want to thank you all for emailing your suggestions, ideas, experiences, as well as samples of the horrific reports that are returned from India to US QA editors to correct - the before product; this is exactly what we needed to take with us to DC.  So many of you have responded and are already helping out, that we've proven that a group of skilled professionals do not have to go on strike to make a difference in their financial future.


The fair pay vote results will be listed shortly.   


 


Correction: One is told to remove or change the nasty expressio
from your post before it can posted.
Can the company provide you with samples of the
sdd
How about providing some samples of format? sm
OK, so transitioning can be tough, but for an MT with that kind of experience, I would assume that with a few samples of format to follow she could be up and running in no time. I would not mess with them. Something is weird.
More than 1/2 the time you don't get actual facility samples, tho, just
s
Then provide samples and learning tools.
We are all only human.  The doctor is supposed to be reviewing and signing these reports they dictate.  Are they not?  If they sign off a report that has an error, that then makes the dictating physician liable, not the MT.  This docking for errors sounds like another scheme to make money off of hard-working MTs.    tsk tsk
They will use the hospital MTs for samples, then ship account

Agree to point, but people need samples and also ability

our hospital provided the outsource service samples of ESL's dictation so that the
reports wouldn't keep coming back with missing dictation and blanks and horrendous attempts at guessing. I would also keep asking your company over and over and over again to please provide you with a sample, if not from the hospital, then maybe from one of their transcriptionists on the same account.
Most of their work does not get proofed. some of it is absolutly awful - I've seen samples - ACK

Not related in any way. n/m

Look at how many are related....
There are several mother/daughters working there, several sisters, etc. You get my point. You know they're getting awesome charts! They send those 5, 12, 22-second charts to the others. Absolutely not fair..... Grrrrr....
Related to whom?
 
They are related to TTD

Superior uses all different companies to do their work. 


Boy, I wonder if he is related to her from etranz
sounds like there is more than 1 crook in this in this business.
Not related, but they sure like they are beginning to

I saw something that made me think they were somehow related to MQ.
It was a list of companies, and Medquist was listed, and then another listing with Milner/MedQuist. I'm not sure what it means, but it sure scared me away.
Work Related
On the job injuries, drug screens, employment physicals, workers comp, etc.
You can ask whatever, but it is specifically related
to company rules, regulations, benefits, etc., best to get it from official sources rather than here.
it is probably more account-related
but like with any company, it is going to vary according to patient load and whether the doctors dictate consistently or wait until the charts are going delinquent. This is not like predicting how many hamburgers you can sell in a day. If you believe in this company and how it operates, be brave, get your feet wet! it's not going to be perfect anywhere. You can always ask for back up accounts.
MDI or LANDMARK RELATED?
Does anyone have any idea if MDI and Landmark are affiliated in any way with each other?  It sounds like they both use the same platform (Bayscribe) and have very similar hiring and working practices, so I'm wondering if they are owned by the same people?  Also, is anyone currently working for both of these companies at the same time and if so, how is that woring for you?
are they related to Spheris?

Oh, God forbid we say anything Christianity-related!
Like it or not, this country was founded by and established by Christians. If anyone's offended by that - well, too bad.

By the way, I'm an agnostic and if I'm not offended by the words Christmas and In God We Trust, why would anyone else be? Religion is a personal thing and being offended by a major religion and its doctrine is secular and hypocritical.

I can admit who is responsible for starting this great country of ours and if anyone has a problem with that maybe they should go somewhere and make their own country elsewhere. This one is already here and the facts of how it came about can't be changed.


My maiden name is Stillwell - we may be related.
It seems so strange to see my name on the internet and it is not me.

What state are you in?
Are Medquist & Medware related? The same? (n/m)
?
Definitely not related. MW is owned by 1 family. nm

Are you related to Kathie Lee Gifford?
...
Could this be related on On-Point? Where are they located?
..
I click on the related messages and there
are about a dozen.  If you will click on one of those links there are usually several other posts where others have responded to the same questions you are asking.  Someone has started a private Transtech board within the last few weeks, but there is tons of stuff about Transtech on MTStars. 
It's not job related but a generous gift
They believe we each have a responsibility to lessen our carbon footprint on the earth. They give the reimbursement as a reward and a thank you. Another reason I love working for them...it's not all about money and capitalism.
I don't need insurance; questions were not related to that nm

Not sure if related but I worked on Neo PLATFORM,
