table of class, grades and stages
i once printed a table someone had made of class, grades, and stages. Does anyone know where that is now or does anyone have that? I lost mine and I forget which way to type the numbers!

It depends on the kid and the grades where I'm from
I missed around 60 days my junior year of high school, but the school didn't really care because I had good grades. I graduated in 1997, but I think most schools are stricter now. My husband missed about as much school as I did, but he got kicked out because his grades weren't good.
They 'Found' My Grades
The saga continues. After I filed complaints with every agency on the face of the earth, the VLC 'found' my grades. They say they weren't really gone - it was just a techinal glitch - at the same time as the blocked access to their forum and the returned email. And all of these 'technical glitches' occurred the morning after I threw a fit. And now - after almost 5 weeks, they have even offered to really send me a medical dictionary. WOW!! What service!! I'm persuing my complaints until I get full reimbursement and compensation for all the work I completed. And then I'll find an accredited course to continue.
Thanks for all the support,
Dianne

Early stages of agoraphobia?
Do any of you feel that since you have started working at home that you have become a lot more antisocialible and isolated? I have always been a shy person but have never been afraid to go out. Since working at home, which I do love, I never want to leave the house. The only time I go anywhere is on the weekends and that is because my husband is with me. If I have someone with me then I am fine, but I do not want to leave the house alone. I have to force myself to run errands such as going to the bank, post offfice, etc. When I do go out, I just feel like everyone is looking at me. I feel very paranoid and self-conscious and I just cannot wait to get back into the safety of my car and get home. Do I have the early stages of agoraphobia? I know I also suffer from OCD. I wash my hands so many times a day it's crazy. If I cook meat, I have to wash my hands and wipe down my cooking area about a million times. I have a fear of germs. I repeat numbers a lot of times and if I do something to one finger/hand, I have to do it to the other. The OCD does not bother me too bad though because I am so used to it but the not wanting to leave the house thing bugs me. Do any of you feel the same as I do?
Sometimes it's worth it to pay to have them live AWAY and on campus. Failing grades here mean any

I love this idea! I'm in the planning stages of a website... SM
and would love to sell this T-shirts on my website at some point in the future.
I have a friend who is in medical billing, got her coding certification, but can't get a job without actual work experience as a coder. So we've brainstormed and thought we might go into business together. Create a company that offers medical billing and medical transcription and eventually coding services to private practices, hospitals, etc.
I'm also toying with the idea of incorporating some sort of online MT mentoring/education program into the new business venture.
But like I said we are in the planning and brainstorming stages and when I read about this T-shirt idea, I thought it would be a fabulous addition to the website. Because one thing is very certain our business venture will stand firmly against offshoring.
Roman
Stages are normally written in Roman but your company/account might have a preference.
was roman numerals
It was Roman Numerals until transcription started going by The Book of Style. Then it changed to numbers.
Roman Numerals
How funny, I have transcribed for 36 years and every cardiologist I worked for used Roman Numerals. It is we, the transcriptionists, who started using numbers, when we were being critiqued by the Book of Style. Then I noticed the cardiologists a few times would state, use Roman Numerals and after a while, they went along with numbers. So, maybe you and your cardiologists are post Book of Style.
Roman numerals
Someone posted a whole document they recieved from their workplace on the correct way to use Roman numerals versus regular numbers and staging of cancers, I meant to to make a copy, but forgot, could you please repost this, Forever Thankful.
Any job I've been on has used Times New Roman at 12. nm

my preference is for Times New Roman n/m

Roman Numerals versus Numbers
Back in the 70s, murmurs were Roman Numerals. Then The Book of Style came out and that is the first I was told of the change. Since then, it is written as numbers, i.e., 1/6.
combo MT/MC classes
I am thinking of taking a Medical Transcription class. My sister who is a Physician's Assistant tells me I should do coding instead. Does anyone know anything about the combo classes and whether they are a good idea and if they prepare you enough?
Thanks
Dance Classes
I have 20+ years of dance training (ballet, jazz, tap). From what I see, jazz and hip-hop would both help with drill team. Jazz more so, but I know some drill teams are getting a little edgier with the hip-hop style. If I can help with any other questions, feel free to email me.
Do you think they will pay for my spelling classes??? lol

I got to take some training classes...
that were provided to me free by my employer, which helped me learn the basic concepts. Then I just tried to start thinking outside the box a little bit, looking for things that annoyed me that I could change by using IT. Basically any sequence of keys or commands you type on the keyboard, you can program into IT. So for example it drives me CRAZY when a doctor starts dictating a paragraph and then says #2 when he didn't say #1, or the other way around, when he always says #1 and then there's no #2 and my account rules are that you have to fix that. So I wrote down the combination of keys that it took to go up to the top of the paragraph, take the number out and then drop back down to the bottom, and I made a shortcut out of it. You can use the command function in IT to insert things like ctrl/shift and the up arrow to take you to the beginning of the paragraph or the search/replace command to change Diagnosis to Diagnoses. I just kept track of what keys I was typing to do certain things and then made an entry for those. Some of them took some tweaking but once I got them exactly right they make my day go much more smoothly. There's also a website, I believe it's www.productivitytalk.com, that gives a lot of tips and tricks to use with IT. Hope that helps.
I took coding classes and took the
test, which is about 5 hours long, passed it on the first try, have my credentials, but haven't done any coding at all, just MT work. I am considering going to coding bootcamp to brush up on my skills and bite the bullet and just do it. There are many work at home jobs available, but just like being an MT, the best thing is to work in-house for a couple of years to get some experience and then work at home. Have a couple of friends who did that and they love it.
take grammar classes
It is
'You are stupid' or you're stupid', not 'your stupid'.
And don't take things out of CONTEXT.
yes that is it. Is that roman numeral?also, Pap smear of the cusp/cuff???? was done today

I teach classes online.

Does anyone take dance classes for exercise?
I'd like to get out of the house once in a while and can't stand the gym. I just don't want to be the only adult student among children. LOL
MTWerks has some training classes on IT. sm
http://www.mtwerks.com/InstantText.htm
I have not personally done any of her IT classes, but I did once go to a seminar she held in my area and I learned a lot of computer/word based shortcuts. She is or was an MT and has come up with these seminars/classes to help productivity for MTs, more in the "keeping the hands on the keyboard" kind of thinking rather than using mouse, etc. It helped me tremendously and I still use a lot of her tips.
Someone also posted on her maybe a year or so ago a website that had a lot of tips about naming your shortcuts/expanders and how to remember them, but I cannot recall what website it was. Maybe do a Google search and see what you can find?
Check out the classes and hang in there anyway...
Does your hospital provide funds for continuing education? Can you change shifts? Don't out-and-out quit just yet, you truly don't know how good you probably have it if you've been working for a hospital and not for a national. I pine for my hourly pay hospital days, ha-ha, though a lot of what went on got on my nerves at the time. Good luck but again, give it a lot of thought, take a few days off if you can.
There is no charge for grads to take the classes.
I just finished the course and signed up for the classes and did not pay a dime. You may be confused by the $50 Review Guide that is recommended to study with.
RAST test classification roman numerals or numbers? Thanks ahead of time.

A girl in one of my classes volunteers as a doula -
I think it's a pretty neat idea, although this girl is about 22, very cute with a slender little body, and has never had a child before! But actually she does have the personality for it; very compassionate and caring.
P.S. Channel some energy into agility classes
perhaps! Sounds like a great candidate if he/she can jump and get your sunglasses! Lots of classes for agility in most areas, and lots of fun for dog and owner, not to mention exercise! Woof!
that would be stickY (sorry)

Sticky
My local company is the cheapiest that I have found and never once have I had them separate in the laser printer and I have been using this for 15+ years. I have very little waste as I just do continuous notes on the 8 1/2 sheets and cut apart before I deliver to the offices. I pay $28.70 for 250 sheets and that is with 2 slits along the side so it is easy for the girls to file into the charts. True I go and pick up but it is only 10 miles from me. I have searched and searched and found no place cheaper. And like I said it has never peeled apart and I have had Avery, Viking, many nationals that have jammed in my laser printer before and never once have these. And I like giving locals the business. As for the perforated ones, it is $33 per 250 but I wasted too much for that and when it comes in a roll and you have to cut apart and it curls, too much work for me. My 2 cents for the day.
Tar is sticky

Don't forget,10% of the drs in this country were in the bottom 10% of their graduating classes.
For mom with teen girls, what type of dance classes sm
are appropriate for learning moves to try out for drill team? my daughter is 14 and has never been in any dance classes. i am puzzled by the jazz, hip/hop, etc. and have no clue where she needs to start. she wants to try out for the drill team next year. TIA!
I teach literacy classes. Do it. You'll be glad you did.

B.S. in HIM, no MT school, OTJ training for that skill, but the HIM classes for the knowledge. nm

Sticky paper
Like I said below I buy my sticky paper through a place that prints up forms. You will need to do some calling to see. It is a little expensive but I provide that in my price. Just do not buy the boxed stuff from Viking or Office Depot or Office Max as they do not not have the perforations on the sides so that when they peel the note it is smaller than the paper and fits on a piece of paper. E-mail me if you have any questions. But if you are in the Seattle area, there are a lot of paper places up there. If you are doing overflow then the main MT should be able to tell you where to get the paper. Also they might provide it as some accounts do. Everyone is different. But CONGRATS -- the first step is the hardest. Knew you could do it. Be sure to ask for lots of examples when you start. Keep me informed. Any questions you can e-mail me. Patti typing without glasses hope don't have many typos.
You can get Sticky paper
You can get sticky paper from Medical Arts Press, get the quick peel that has perforations on the side so it fits on your regular sized paper. It is expensive though, I used to buy the large box, approx $90.00, so if you can get your client to supply it, that would be great. I always had to supply my own.
Sticky Paper
Does any one have any suggestions on a type of paper that can be printed on and then stuck into a patient's chart? I would like to find a lable type to fit in a certain space. Brand names would be helpful. Thank you in advance
Sticky paper
I use an 8 1/2 x 11 label size paper that has about 1/8" inch that peels back on each side so that it is smaller than the paper you place it on. The clinics use it to put the chart notes in the charts. I get it at a form place that makes it. Avery makes 8 1/2 x 11 labels but you have to cut down the sides before you peel back the sheet to place it on the paper and it doesn't have great peel backs either. Call local form places and sometimes they will have perforations 1" or so but I don't like that as you waste a lot when you have to begin another chart note and you have to be sure it is below one of the perforations. Have been using this for 15 years now. Did go with some national companies but the shipping got to be too much. Again, call local paper and form places in your area and see if theymake it. E-mail me wiht specific questions.

Im sure they carry these tyoe of rolls.
Sticky Paper
Hi, I have always used plain computer paper for my reports but have a new doctor who prefers me to use the "sticky" paper. I was wondering if I should charge for the paper, since it is an added cost, and also if anyone knows where to purchase this paper. Thanks.
sticky paper
I have a great supplier Forms & Filing Systems 800-472-0171. Costs about $120 for 1000 sheets. I pass this cost on to my docs.
sticky paper
I'm not sure about the colors. But it is laser quality. It comes in different label sizes. I use a full sheet lable.
