In Reply to: I suppose you have to write down the line count for every single document and it doesnt track them - MT
you have to do each document individually, but also keep in mind that it counts ALL lines, both typed and not typed. So be careful of that, if you aren't getting paid for blank lines.

I just keep track of my main break. I don't keep track
of every interruption during my shift, that would be ridiculous. Im not gonna log every potty break, or phone call I have to take. I take 20-30 mins for my dinner break and that is what I log on my sheet.
track changes
Ok, I am correcting one of my girls documents. I am trying to use track changes. After i email this to her i want to get rid of the red marks, save, and send to my client. How do i get rid of these red marks?
NOW you are on the right track.
As to noncompete agreements? They are generally not enforceable IF they are too broad - and that's where an attorney comes in - for interpretation. IF YOU DON'T target THEIR clients, you are free to solicit business where you choose. So bypass the legal stuff and solicit your OWN, different clients...
You should ALSO contact your reps in congress - in a serious professional can I have a meeting type of way. Start with your local representative and be prepared to some serious homework. This is if you want to undertsanding why and how offshoring exists. Not as simple as some would have you believe.
Good luck!
off track totally....
And we have a Chevy with 300,000 miles been going strong for years plowing snow, blah, blah, blah....but all this is off track and is very unfortunate that it appears that many just simply do not care if the MT industry gets off-shored or not. But again, that is every individuals perogative to care or not to care and only someday when it affects you or someone you love personally will you ever truly understand!!
They also track your location
because you cannot post anonymously anymore. If you are using a proxy site you cannot post.
Big Brother MTSO.
You're exactly right! Oh, and please do not track me down at my personal
Big no-no. No-no.
Can companies track who you are on this board?
If you post a question/comment here about your company, if they wanted to know who you are, it is possible for them to track down who you are?
Thanks
Maybe 45 minutes, didn't keep track though sm
wasn't bad in my opinion. Pretty routine questions, the more you know off your head, the faster it goes and also if you keep the small talk down and get to business, doesn't take that long.
Well, now I'm curious. I have to track down who I worked for. I was

I'd keep track of my time and figure out my hourly (sm)
and go from there. It'll either be an hourly rate you're happy with or not, kwim?
Yes, they can track you via the IP address that you are posting from. There is no such thing as pri

I DO keep track, and work long hours, but only
If I say I can't do the minimum line count in 8 hours, they say I'm too slow. But if I eliminate quality (by not proofing or not correcting grammar, and just typing verbatim) then I hear about that, too. They just say to work harder, work faster.
The MTSO's only care about their precious TAT and volume. What we have to do to ourselves in order to accomplish THEIR goals is of no importance to them.
The only way it ever will be is if someday they happen to get put under a microscope like other fraudulent US businesses have, lately.
What I wouldn't give to see the fat-cats at AHDI up in front of Congress trying to explain themselves some fine day. Could happen.
Did not like. Slow, cumbersome, no way to track line counts.

Anyone hear of them? TIA!
sounds like Medquist keeping track of all times
my company does not do that
Keeps track of keystrokes and websites. Monitors you to make

Maybe they mean sign in and out for breaks etc to keep track of the 8 hours that you are to work. nm

Then we ALL need to start keeping track of our hours and anything that falls
below minimum wage - we need to start reporting these companies - don't care if this is caused only because of a decrease in starting VR or whatever causes it, no work, downtime if not paid, EVERYTHING included. I do believe that might get the MTSOs attention. They can't fire us all. Looks like India MT situation might be in trouble so the MTSOs should be very cautious that perhaps they can't rely on offshore forever in the future.
Does DQS track your time for payroll, or do we fill in our own timesheet on-line? nm

Haven't noticed - do you keep track of individual report counts?

You say you type 130 wpm but call yourself slow? I think you lost track of your story AnnSallie
Hope you are happy and glad if you are. I'm not following this anymore as it's getting a little old.
3 in total, 1 FT and 2 PT..sm
Originally took on another PT local doc to cover daughter's competitive cheerleading costs. Then, hubby got laid off last fall and took on another national PT to help make ends meet. He now is employed elsewhere, but still have late bills, not to mention never want to be in that position again. Trying to pay off all the bills!!! Feels like I work round the clock, but really don't with lots of breaks and extreme flexibility to work whenever and also be with my kids whenever (and be their chauffeur, mostly!) Good luck to you, it's hard but there is something to be said for security.
I suppose you have to write down the line count for every single document and it doesnt track them
for a total for the while day. That is what I was wondering.
Doesn't apply if your OSI account doesn't use Ichart.
It is the Ichart only for OSi where you are cheated.
Could be because of total lack of sm
professionalism and loyalty to those she worked with if indeed that is true. All I ever heard from her was talking about others behind their back. I never met anyone other than from one other one there who went long ago that did that and it is the worst case of management I have ever known.
Look at the total package
Sometimes a great incentive program more than makes up for low CPL, also a good program, good dictators, how many templates and normals you can get. I knew someone who consistently did over 2000 lines per day and did not work more than 8 hours, doing mostly OPs with ESLs, but they all said the same thing, used formats. She just had to keep making her normals and inserting them. They said the same phrases over and over, so she made big bucks. Once she got used to them, it was a breeze and she was consistently one of the highest earners.
I would just keep checking other companies. I am sure there is something out there for you. Don't give up.
In total agreement
with the poster who stated that being overweight, most of the time is due to overeating because of emotional issues. I am such a person. I am 160 pounds overweight and emotional issues led to my overeating. Surgery will not take these issues away. I was 200 pounds overweight. I have been undergoing counseling and have joined Nutrisystem, where I also receive a lot of support. A long haul? Yes, but I would much rather go this route, then risk my life in a surgery with no definite outcome.
total lines
I work on extext and that is the way it is done for me to. Just shows total lines for that hospital. But you can get the total lines for a certain period not just that day.
well, IMO total disgraces!!
ridiculous to offer a whopping six cents a line!!! Wahoo!! Are they out of their frelling minds. You get what you pay for and six cent quality is what they are going to get. UGH!! SHAME ON THEM!!!
That's my question. How do you know the total is right?
I'm a TT newbie, so please don't take offense. For the other companies I've worked for you can see the number of reports in the final count, including work types. With TT, I see a client breakdown with total lines. If there's a report missing, I have no way of knowing. If there's a way to do it with Ctrl I, I can't figure it out and can't get an explanation. I don't check every 5 minutes, but I do check my line counts a couple of times a day and this has always helped my production. I don't understand why this is so complicated. Am I doing something wrong?
total agreement
MTs can make the $$ exactly how you stated using expanders. I also stay in one specialty field with the same dictators... but you must be focused on your work and with no expense on gas or clothes, that all adds up to money in your pocket.
Any fool knows that VR is a TOTAL RIP OFF.
How that can be slander, well, only in the mind of an MTSO. Don't want the MTs to realize they are being taken with these LIES about VR, now, would we?
I had 4 accounts total
Primary plus 3. There were times that there was no work in ANY of them. Funny thing is that the *Backlog* would show a certain number but when I'd go in to get reports, there were just a few. Then my primary would get gobbled up by people working on east coast (I'm west-Pacific time), so there has been lack of work in the past 3 to 4 months.
Cross-training did help but the ship had been sinking for some time without our knowledge.
My new gig has no weekends, no holidays, NEVER any VR. No pool, I'm the only MT on the acct. Full-time employee after 90 days, bene's (10 PTO a year) after 1 year. Regular 9:00 to 5:00 Clinic schedule.
Like musical chairs, have to find a place to sit once the music stops or....
My total hours were 85 of which 7.5 were OT. Does THAT satisfy you?
I draw a line at telling you my earnings, however.
No communication at MDI-FL. Total chaos.

They're total flakes. They don't know what end is up.

It depends on total years of
what work type. You can actually make more than 8 as an employee if you make the bonus. I do acute care and make 8 plus the first level of incentive which is an additional 1/2. That is for 1400 lines per day. Some days I make the 1400 and some days I don't, it just needs to be 14000 in a 2 week pay period. There is actually a level above this one too, for 16000 in a pay period.
At MedWare, too, can't do it. You'd have to log in after every report to get a total, but

I pay $140 a month total for $500 deductible-WMX
MTSOs like you are total tools.
Try treating your MTs like valuable employees, and not expendable machinery, why dontcha?
Name your source and the total quote
Its irresponsible of you to suggest that Obama (or McCain for that matter) wants to put records online implying they could be unprotected.
So name your source, and the entire quote and then WE can determine what the position actually is...
Again, there is a total lack of reading
I don't even know who you think I am in regard to the comments you are attributing to me, I think. I never said that I was against attacking, I never said whatever mumbo jumbo I think you are accusing me of. I stand by my analogy of your behavior as a child in a sandbox. And you're now at the throwing sand stage, soon to be followed by the I'm gonna tell my mother on you which would be in this case, of course, the moderator. The OP gave a very nonemotional and intelligent synopsis of her opinion on hostility on the board and others have responded in kind. It was not an attack, the post was not a complaint, the post had no mention of not wanting to come here. You have 100% completely misconstrued the entire thread and are, indeed, the nasty one telling a poster to move on and go to lovey forums, etc., topped off with your attempt at a final insult of Cheers, or don't let the door hit ya on the way out. Now, do I have to explain this post to you? I think you get it, but you don't like it and just want to stir up the sandbox some more. We were all playing just fine before, not to worry.

Total waste of time and money
No doctor or hospital even has heard of CMT. It's just crap made up by the AAMT to line their pockets with application fees.
Can you tell me does it keep a total tally of your reports instead of just one at a time. I would
like a line counter that does it by the day or week actually.
any companies with total MS WORD platforms
 Are there ANY decent companies to work for who have totally MS WORD based platform for the work... i.e. you can use the autocorrect and/or some other word Expander than shorthand?
I have HAD it with these nasty platforms that are from the dark ages... worse than WP5.1. meditech, chartscript, docuscribe stuff, bayscribe ......
Because I compare the total lines to my paycheck

not to mention being discourteous to your co-workers this comes across as being a total ah
