Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

Disgusting is an understatement but nobody can/will stop it. Nobody cares but us is right.

How can they have "English typing skills" but not need to know how to speak English?  How can they understand it if they can't speak it?  Mind boggling.  And how do they get away with it?  Because it's cheap and JACHO doesn't care nor does the organization formerly known as AAMT (new title without "American" and "Transcriptionist").

Perspire is an understatement! sm
I have both a topper and a pillow made of the visco elastic...I wake up at least once a night sweating. I have heard this from lots of folks. I live in FL and this happened even in the winter months, when no heat or A/C was being used. Anyway, the comfort is well worth the nightly soaking :)
No, that is disgusting!
Nasty!
That is truly disgusting. nm

Yes, it is disgusting. SM
I go to several MT jobs boards and they are all alike.  I have been in this business for a long time and can do most specialties including hospital reports to include operative reports.  I see the ads where they want "client ready" transcription and have to chuckle when they offer 7 to 9 cpl.  I have gotten to the point where I will not even apply for those positions.  Do I have hospital experience?  You bet I do.  So why are overseas transcriptionists taking my money when the MTs in the States can do the job better and just as fast.  I stopped applying to those companies with their insulting line rates.  Then they try to screw you over some more by not paying for spaces.  If US MTs refuse to work for these companies and they are not allowed to send the work overseas, who is going to suffer?  A lot of hospitals and states are now making it known that the work is not to be sent overseas and it is in their contracts.  Are things looking up?  I truly hope so, but I doubt it.

OMG. That's disgusting. Especially after just lowering our pay.

You are disgusting yourself to post
about another human being!! You ought to be ashamed.
and sin is sin. it's abominable, disgusting, and
you'll never be saved and do that.
I never thought he was hot. He's disgusting. sm
And his personal antics with many women (other than his wives, that is other women when he is still married) make him someone I would never admire in any way.  As someone said below, GROSS.  Ugh!   Like a spindly leg strutting spider with 20 pounds of collagen in their lips.  Yes, I know they are real.  But Ugh still stands!
disgusting husband
Is she a friend of yours or just an acquaintance?  Perhaps you could talk to her.  She can't possibly be happy.  Maybe all she needs is some support to get out on her own and away from him.  
I would report that. It is disgusting.

Wow - how disgusting is right. Sure shows you
It's right up there on the Sickening Scale with that video someone posted a while back of "trainers" teaching companies how to bypass American workers' job applications, so they can then justify their outsourcing by saying there "aren't enough American workers".
There sure aren't - not when you kick all their applications under the rug or into the round file!
We need to lobby for laws in this country that will put a heavy tax on companies who outsource American livelihoods to other countries. We might as well put "For Sale" signs on our beaches, farmland, and national parks, because that's what'll be coming next.
kind of sick and disgusting...

Disgusting commercial, huh?! Hahaha
I use Brawny paper towels and Lysol Kitchen spray on counters and appliances. I use plastic scrubbies on the sink and anything I need to scrub up before the dishwasher and the put the scrubbie in the dishwasher as well. I spray Lysol on the sink and faucets before I go to bed.

I started this when I saw Oprah's show on women who horde and won't clean/throw away anything. The experts she had on the show had checked one woman's kitchen sink for bacteria and compared it to her commode and the commode was cleaner! I about fell over. I have dishcloths and dishtowels but they are washed after every single use! Ewwwwww!
Yes, he was out of breath - could hardly get words out - it was disgusting

the game sounds pretty disgusting...

They type like they talk - and fly under the radar - disgusting!
No one at the top cares as long as they get their third party payment.
Motel housekeeper when I was 16. That was a physically demanding and disgusting
job. The supervisor was always riding us to clean faster, but we made less money if we got the job done in fewer hours. Why on earth would we work faster to clean a room in 20 minutes or less just so they could pay us less?

Anyway, it was a nasty job. The things people do in motel rooms were often immoral and illegal. I had teenaged boys on a soccer team throwing condoms at me. People used to rent rooms to party, get drunk, do drugs, and other things. They left behind pornography and other things an innocent 16 y.o. had never even seen before.

Then this adult male "guest" was wandering down the hallway in just a pair of shorts. We were supposed to help the "guests" so I asked if he had misplaced his room key. He pulled his shorts off and came after me. I grabbed a bottle of acid to spray him in the eyes and called security, but the cops never found him. He had overturned the bed in his room and set up a pup tent in there. What a weirdo. I quit that same week because the housekeeper supervisor was a shrew. She's still there 20 years later. Never had any motivation to do anything else, I guess. That job taught me how to clean thoroughly and quickly, but also taught me that I would never be anyone's grunt.
I had a really disgusting burp from a doctor. Didn't even say excuse me.

Have you ever had someone dictating with a piece of hard candy, clicking around on his teeth in the back of his mouth?


I find it totally disgusting that benefits are tied in to production.
xx
stop and full stop
that reminds me of a doctor who had his own very unique word for period...he called it a "perikat".  All through the report...Perikat... perikat.... LOL
B. No and E. Who cares. nm

No and Who Cares.

Who cares really...I mean is this.....
really important?  I can tell you that my life is no different now than before.  I agree with the other poster...if it will pay off the mortgage or make a payment then I will care, otherwise, NO!
who cares, he is...

Who really cares, Jay? sm
Are you the same Jay who used to be so vocal AGAINST the AAMT and offshoring and you are now their biggest fan?  Well, that says a lot about you, doesn't it?  Cheerleader #1!!!  The AAMT failed it's biggest test.  Defending and protecting the AMERICAN MT.  Then, let's have the annual convention in Hawaii, when a lot of us, Jay, are making a lot less money than we used to. We don't have the money to go to Hawaii, Jay.  Get the picture?  At any rate, whatever floats your boat.  The AAMT is bogus.  Maasalamah!!!
Nobody cares who the MVP is..
Take this nonsense somewhere else...PLEASE!
yea, right...NOT...he cares nothing about u...nm

Who cares how old it was
it is STILL happening!!!! That's the point. You just don't get it, do you. Well, you never will then. Good bye! Have to go!!!
Maybe it's not where OP is from. Who cares
x
Nobody but us cares.

And if nobody cares.... sm
Why should you? :D
awwww who CARES?????
That person probably has 10 kids of their own.  Who cares????  If you can support 'em pop 'em out like a friggin rabbit for all I care.  That poster just needs some lemonade and then they will be happy, happy, happy.  Do you remember the happy, happy, happy poster?
Dont believe me, who cares?
How silly you are.  Dont believe me, I dont care.  MQ has been sold.  I will post again once you get the news from MQ.  I will post *I told ya so*.
I do acute cares and can do 250...
not sure what you mean by copy and paste. I have text Expanders and "normals" that I use that really help, they are built into Chartscript or it may be called SoftWeb and you can add all the shortcuts you want. I am trying to learn the abcdz system of short cutting.
Who cares if you will be perceived
as a troublemaker?  There are as many of us involved in the association as you who are disgusted with the status quo and my suggestion is that you ride it out and run for office and move the problem folks to the back burner.  Believe me, it can be done.  Women, unfortunately, allow themselves to be herded and if you don't like that notion then you have to stay and do something about it.  Things don't make sense if you don't make them make sense.  If your state organization is running amuck .. report them to Modesto .. talk to Peter Preziosi directly and tell him straight out that you want action.  I think you would be very happy you chose to talk to him.
Who cares what solicitors think!
And if they think you are cranky, then maybe they won't have the nerve to stop by!! Solicitors are so annoying!!! I say, get a sign, "NO SOLICITING!"
who even cares anymore what the BOS says?
not me!
Ok. GET A LIFE! Nobody cares about JLG.

Oh brother. Who cares?

im sorry, you think Obama cares about MTs?
yea, right. im sure all the politicians do, but newsflash Obama as a president is NOT healthy for small businesses

bottom l ine there needs to be a standardized MT industry, but nobody steps up to the plate to create it. The general public has no idea you think? You think they'd like it if their medical records were being done overseas? not so sure most would... they just dont KNOW it. who fights for us anyway?
No one really cares what your typing.

Don't you get it and even if they did they wouldn't know what they are reading anyway.  Furthermore, there is something called minimize!!! It's on your screen, check it out some time, it actually minimizes the screen so no one can read your important secret information. 


It amazes me how people can jump on here and just judge away and sit back and think they are just so above everyone else.  No one cares, get it?


Thats the biz.. part of the reason why not everyone can or cares

I really do not like Oprah or her show! Who cares? !

Love Elton... Who cares (sm)
what he does in the privacy of his own home & life? I never saw such narrow minded people. Remember the story about glass houses... Watch someone may cast a stone to you! Lets just hope nothing you do will SHOCK anyone. Just disgusted with this conversation. Be happy for him. Life is short to spend it alone!!
Who cares about dinner? JESUS is

Who cares, we all have the same initials at one time or another. nm

who cares about pats on the back,
just show me the money!
I have not worked for a doctor yet who cares about BOS.
It is the transcription company owners who sell it not the doctors or facilities.  None of my docs want anything to do with the single space after a period.  They all still accept the 1-10 spelled out too, amoung other things.  They do not have the time to nitpic over stuff that the AAMT group is so fixated on.  They want to practice medicine and be given well transcribed, neat, correct documents and that is exactly what I do.  I say if you want to start your own...go for it!  Transcription companies will tell their Transcriptionist to do it their way anyway and someone out there might like your ideas better!
