Thanks. Primary use will be for gas, though we don't
trade with Shell.  
I don't need it for my primary
account either, just my backup. I did not think about using a phone card. Maybe that would work better for me. I am already paying almost $50 a month for regular phone service. That is why I was thinking the $50 a month through Time Warner might be better. I definitely need more than 2 phones, between my C-phone and a phone for both upstairs and downstairs.

Thanks for the info!
primary..secondary
I agree 100%. I was on a great hospital with MQ but they kept calling me to work in my secondary which is one of the worst hospitals I have ever transcribed, IMHO, over 36 years.  I frankly got tired of the every day call to work in my secondary so I focused on my secondary, mastered the hard doctors and now my secondary is my primary, a hospital which most dont want to transcribe..so usually there is lots of work and bonuses too..guess **I won**, hun?
primary and secondary
If you want to have a primary and a secondary, Cornerstone has it. I am the QA supervisor and we are looking for ESL typists for a primary with one secondary. Check out the ad posted in the job section either today or yesterday.
My primary account allows
2 blanks to go right to the client. I rarely send to QA; in fact, just looked up on my email and I've sent 4 reports to QA in July.

I do about 50 jobs a day.
sounds like my primary...when they first did this,
I emailed my supe and suggested we just type the whole thing in the demo so they did not have to pay us at all...
About 5-6 hours on my primary, but
secondaries slow me down to longer than 8 hours.
Primary question is SM
why didn't the internships work out?  What was your quality score (you should have been reviewed at regular intervals)?
My primary account is in New Orleans
They aren't dictating.  They don't need transcription help.  I need work, but I'm not whining.  At least I have a dry home!!!
Unless you are the primary record-keeper sm

You should dispose of all of them. My rule of thumb for files that I keep on my computer is two weeks. I send them in daily to the clinic, but I do keep mine for two weeks as backup in case for some reason theirs get lost.


You need to dispose of them so that the information can no longer be extracted. I remember a long time ago we had a magnet we would run tapes and/or disks through which would wipe the data. I don't know if those still exist, or how well they actually work.


You might get in touch with the MTSO or clinic or whoever the information originally belonged to and find out how they dispose of their sensitive material.


My primary is oncology and hematology
and I have tons of Expanders and macros.  I also have to go off of a handwritten schedule that is faxed and cross them off as I go and obtain DOB, MRN and doctor names to place in the document.
Actually being on the same account for four months I would take as consistent primary! nm
:)
Familiar with primary/secondary insurance?sm

My son is currently covered under my husband's (his stepfather) policy.  His father and I have talked about changing him to his insurance come open enrollment time later this year because his coverage is now much better than ours.  I am considering actually leaving him on my husband's insurance too though, in the hopes that primary/secondary coverage will leave less out of pocket expenses...because it costs us no more or less with him on our policy anyway (same family rate regardless of the number of children covered). 


My question is this.....if our policy has a huge deductible then pays at 80/20...and if he was also covered by his father's policy that utilizes office copays...how would that pay?  Would his father's policy still not kick in and pay anything until we met the deductible on the primary policy?  If so that's pointless...but I don't see the secondary insurance company wanting to pick up all the expenses that the primary won't.  Anyone familiar with this situation that has any suggestions?  Would be greatly appreciated...very confused.  LOL  Thanks!


Actually being on the same acct for four years would be considered a consistent primary.

There are only five states voting in primary elections today--sm
Wisconsin, where I am at, is one of them. check the internet to see if your state is included. this is a *primary* election, meaning we are voting to NOMINATE candidates for senate, congress, govenor, etc. We are not voting these people into office, just nominating them for election.
If insurance is your primary concern, then Trans Tech may not be an option for you.
The family insurance is horrid, over $1200 a month I believe, and the single coverage would have cost me $300 a month. I had to pass on the job due to this. I would be working just for the insurance.
oops.. I mean 68 not 80! nm

oops
I meant to say got, not good - it's been a long day.

I thought you all were talking about not being able to volunteer until you registered with the Red Cross.  I was just pointing out that the Astrodome is desperate for volunteers.
Oops

That was supposed to be "plasma" not what is there.  It should be plasma perox

Oops!

You are SO right -- do you believe I never visualized her in an apartment that was anything but covered in SNOW?  Just goes to show you how much I am able to relate to a sunny clime and take vacations there. (Not much.)  So Jodi, by all means, pay heed to the above poster -- who brought me back to the entire United States instead of the cold northeast where I was. 


OOPS sm

DUH on my part.  No, he was out at the bars that night (not unusually!!!) and came to the house about 3 a.m.  I said you cannot stay here!!!  (My husband was already gone).  He said can't I just go to sleep?  I said nope, not here!  He said he was going to sleep in his car and I said fine.  I haven't seen him since.  I guess I should have filled you in on that part also. 


 


As to him getting something out of this, I totally agree that would make sense.  I did talk to his sister about this (as this is something new for us in our 4 marraige) and she says that he has always been like that, wanting to help people out and having a hard time saying no (which that part I have seen).  I don't know.  I asked if they had "something going on" (which I was kidding, that would be a TOTAL SHOCK!!!) and that didn't make him too happy!!  Thank you guys again for all the support.  I truly feel like I am making the right decision and If my husband is going to stick up for a bum, then he is not the man I thought he was and I will be fine!!


oops!
I said I let my CMT expire after almost 10 years, actually it was almost 20 years. Oh well, the result is the same.
Oops!! Sorry! Can you believe I never
looked at that board as I thought it was those looking for work? ha!! Well, one thing for sure is that she shouldn't post on this board, right? Live and learn!! Think I'm gonna go browse job seekers!
oops
That should have been "paperclip"
oops!
I had a doc leave his dictating phone on, while he left the room, in the surgeon's lounge. I heard one very handsome, young doc tell the other docs that when he rubs Ben Gay on his 'boys', he goes crazy! I couldn't even look at the guy after that one !
Oops
I didn't mean previous emails. I meant previous posting!!!! Geesh. It's been a long day for me!
OOPS!!!
I meant "thread," not "threat!"  Hee-hee!  The supervisor didnt start a threat; she started a thread on the forum. 
Oops!
I forgot to change my name from my last post. This topic is confusing, but not very sad!!
Oops, should be MQ, Not MA.
:P
Oops, I don't know what I did to get that twice, but
you want to convert text to table on the Table menu.
Oops,
Wrong English that is....
Oops
that was driver owner of his own rig that I talked him out of, glad for that....
oops, cut off sm
The worst that will happen is the company will either not reply or tell you they need more experience.  If they give you a chance to test do so!
Oops
"she" is an MTSO I have done in the past and occasionally still do work for
oops
I am totally out of it!    thanks for the help. 
Oops
I went back and read your initial post again. I see you did have two years experience before this position. Sorry, this post has gotten so long I lost track. Anyway, still good luck to you.
oops, that should be sm on name
But speaking of ProScript... I'll ask again here if anyone works there and how they think it is... Thanks!
