Why in the WORLD would they be involved with something in China, unless they are planning to assist them with taking MORE of our work????? I can see it now . . . first China, then India, Pakistan...on and on. We can pay to watch them put us out of work. Yipee. "American" was taken out of the name for obvious reasons.

off shore
Not that I am aware.
Have you watched "How I Met Your Mother"?
It's on Monday's, I think. All my days run together, forgive me. It's not reality, but it's really refreshing. Good writing. I enjoy it.
Neither can you, lol. Mispelled "how" in your post.

TransHealth does not off shore, they hire all US MTs, sm
Their benefit package is great. They pay a very competitive line rate. They get my vote.
Where I am now used to off-shore to India at night - sm
like that too, but we reclaimed it and now there are 3 of use who take care of these 7 doctors. I really hated that knowing if I went to bed that when I woke up all my work would be gone and done by India. Now I don't have that pressure anymore and it is nice, and I have larger paychecks now because of it.
Wonder why no posting there that off shore s allowed now
I plan on posting a job ad to see how many off shore resumes I get. Start deleting postings on that board - you will never know who I am
I thought initially "how hard can it be?"
It's not that I didn't respect the field, I just didn't anything about it. I had done legal transcription and figured since my mother was a nurse, I was pretty familiar with medical terminology (ahem).
By some miracle I got a transcription job in a small clinic and started to be trained. After the first week my thought was "Well, I guess I found something I CANNOT do!" =80 But my trainer was great, I picked it up quickly because even though it was hard I loved it from day 1.
That was 23 years ago and I've come a long way. I laugh at myself then. I was so clueless!
Once all MT is done off shore and all editing is done in US, all will then know how stupid Pakis
:{
Probably because the off-shore people will take 2 cents a line.
That's not a workable wage in America.
Pretty kewl...like the "how popular is your name" thingy, too (nm)
Here in the South, it's "How y'all doin' today?"
"How do you remember all that stuff?" Cuz I's smart. I has a brane. nm

someone just e-mailed me "how to write a letter to your Senator" -
I responded to this e-mail and attached a sample for her (Sarah) to send to her Senator, but came back as not deliverable. Just speak from your heart when you write. Be respectful, "Dear Senator, thank you for representing our state" And then tell your story so to speak, how things are effecting you. That bringing IT jobs (not just MT, but anything that contains our private information, credit card processing, debt collection, etc.) would not only deter the rampant increase in identity and medical identity theft, but would bring American jobs back to America, American MONEY back to America to be spent in America! Good luck to all
Off-shore owned MTSO usually have a token US citizen as the front guy.
;O
Just catching up ... Pls read if you're concerned about off-shore outsourcing...
I'm gratified that the people on this board are brainstorming with each other. I've been "lurking" and reading what's been happening. I have a few comments and thoughts.
Some of the participants here say to send to NBC News, FOX news, etc. Others say to send to Oprah and yet others say their congressman or senator.
I say we should each individually write a letter and copy same to each and every outlet we can think of! All of the above, senators, newscasters, Oprah, whatever and whomever. Until all of these sources are utterly swamped with letters regarding our plight (as well as the plight of radiologists, accountants, billers and coders, etc. all of whom are losing work to off shore outsourcing) we will be ignored. Thousands upon thousands of letters need to be sent out either by snail mail or e-mail. We cannot rely on anyone else to do it for us. Each one of us has to take the responsibility to make it known that we don't like it and we will vote in the next election for only those politicians that take a stand against off-shore outsourcing. Can we all take ten minutes to write a letter and another ten minutes each and every day to send out said letter? We can send duplicates to the same place. Lord knows that they don't pay attention until thousands of letters come in with the same message. Ten minutes a day - each of us - just think how many letters to our congress and to the press could be sent out if we all took the time to do so!
I, for one, will post here a list of places that I have sent a letter to in the hopes that it will inspire you to do the same. 
Make off shore work illegal (to send to), lower dues, better pay - nm

Saugatuck, MI is great dog friendly place if you want to go N. Try Lake Shore Reality. Google em.

China?
Costco owned by China you say?
So what? SO WHAT?????
I just left China
Actually, I just left China. Poor old souls. Not many pretty women in China.
I needed to get home to the states to see all the beautiful women. I felt like I was intoxicated when I came through the door at Medquist and saw all my beautiful gals.
Sara Lee in China?
I'm also hearing that Sara Lee, you know, cakes and pastries? Well they also have many of their products made in CHINA now!!!
yep, it's china - who will take over world by
google that subject......if you so desire....about China taking over the entire world (not in my lifetime thankfully) by 2039-2040.
I remember when I was 12 years old, a chinese restaurant in White Plains, NY, that my folks took us too all the time, was closed down because they found dog and cat bones in their trash.
LOL - in another 25 years China will be
If indeed more co. using China labor we need

Not the least of the borrowed $$ from China is for...sm
of course, those stimulus checks! Does that make sense to anybody? Not me in this credit-card-driven economy. This is starting to catch up with this country. Some day very soon, trust me, we are going to be owned by other countries - or just plain bankrupt and barely scratching by. My thoughts (from some research I've done) are that this will be yet another third-world country, thanks in the largest part to Bush and his wasteful spending on everything but this country or its citizens!!! Such a sad state of affairs!
Used to be machinist, until all the jobs went to china. NM

dog abuse in China story
Listen . . . .what is your real posting name anyway?
My priorities are not your concern. It is a well known fact that people who abuse animals easily go on to violent behavior against people. If clubbing innocent dogs to death doesn't bother you, it should. There are much better ways to deal with a rabies problem than that. Perhaps instead of ranting about my priorities, maybe you could put your energy toward helping create a solution for the abuse of innocent childern or one of the other million problems going on in the world. What ARE YOU doing to help make the world a better place?
killing of dogs in China
Please click on the following link to help stop the killing of the dogs in China in such a horrible inhumane way. Thank you.

thank you for the dogs in China link
We CAN make a difference - thank you.
Same here, although I won't be spending it on a trip to China
I do disagree about not being good at MT though. I think many competent MTs shoot themselves in the foot by not recognizing the value of their skills and working for less than they are worth.
Especially their interest in CHINA, of all places. -sm
Look at what's been coming out of there already - poison pet food, poison people food, badly made and dangerous children's toys, flimsy everything else, etc. They try to bend the rules on just about everything they make & export.
Imagine the quality of their medical transcription.....
[* SHUDDER! *] :/
not only that, last week 172 miners in China
and they say China will take over the world in 2039-2040.....thankfully and hopefully by then I'll be longgggggggggggggg gone....*lol*
And India and China can organize their own
And the big salaries of AHDT board members will go bye-bye!
Walmart opened up 15 stores in CHINA....nm

2039/2040 is when CHINA will really control us.NM

India and China will undoubtedly be creating
Just as the blue collar workers in manufacturing can be replaced, in this global setting, so can the entire corporations - I give them 10 years before the enterprising businessmen in China, India (whereever US CEOs have fled to gain access to slave labor) steal the info and create their own companies and compete as they certainly would be happy with a fraction of the American CEOs income.
just wait - in 2039 or 2040 CHINA will rule...nm
I had heard China holds our notes, and this article verifies that. Also, are you
Back decades ago the US had a gentleman's agreement for the oil from Saudi in exchange for us to be their police protection. Now suddenly the prince of Saudi has been courting Asia to sell it's oil to. Well, Asia will be a good customer.......for the short haul but China does not have the infrastructure to use as much oil as the US does.
An investor I know keeps telling me there is an expected depression this year or early next (2007). I keep seeing things that make me think its so. I know WalMart is doing odd things with its merchandise. And they are working their employees like slaves! having cashiers do toilets, and working the floors way understaffed.
Other companies are seeing the same thing. The companies are trying not to reduce their expected profits, so they are taking it off the backs of employees through taking the pensions, whittling off health insurance, less and less holiday leave, making people do the job of 2 or 3 others.
Our economy is built on hot air.
There were more bankrupcys this month than every before. Also credit cards are getting slower and slower payments in.
People all around me are losing their jobs with the speed of light, I don't care what you READ in the newspaper. They can print whatever they want to, but the reality is in talking to your neighbors and putting your ear to the ground. Salaries are going south, people are sitting here like us with no raises for years.
What makes me sick is our govt officials keep feeding vitamins and jobs to countries that HATE us - China and India. Why in the world! I know they are under the idea that *democracy* spreads peace in the world, but the *democracy* the United States is spreading right now doesn't look right to me. We are losing our rights, our homes to eminent domain, being overrun with illegals and yet the illegals are getting the health care (I typed on someone last night who was not working in this country, not even a legal immigrant, and they were doing scads of tests on this person! and yet I sit here having paid taxes for 45 years and can't afford to own a home or go to the dentist. My car is 20 years old. Where is my country when I need them?)
It's CHINA for Pete's sake, where they still kill girl babies. Do you think
they have some sort of dog euthanasia patrol of paid government employees? Puhleeeze yourself.
Or after a boring weekend when working at a hospital someone asks "How was your weekend?" and
Does China now own a large portion of U.S. Treasury bonds? You sound "in the know."
dd
Agree, we are only seeing the beginning of losing so many jobs overseas to India, China, etc., etc.,
This is a sad reality. However, our country has let this go on for years now.
UNBELIEVABLE!!! I am speechless. I literally have no words! A $5000 trip to China to teach
them how to steal our jobs?
"How dumb am I" to lose a CD-ROM? Oh, about as dumb as the rest of us. nm
