eClinical software - anyone familiar with this?
I work from my home office. I had a doc call today and say he needs an MT, but his office uses a software program called eClinical, so he thought it would have to be done onsite. He said the HPI is the only thing that is really transcribed, that the review of systems, PE, etc., is just checking boxes, and then ICD-9 codes have to be entered for x-rays and such for it to be billed properly. Is anyone familiar with eClinical? Is there any way to access it remotely? How would I even bill for this if the HPI is the only part transcribed and the rest is checking boxes/data entry? I really don't want to go and work onsite. I'm just bummed because he's the first potential client of my own, and instead of being technologically challenged like so many docs and still using tapes, he's technologically advanced! If anybody has any info on this software program, I would really appreciate your input!

IF A COMPANY INVITES YOU TO TEST ON THEIR SITE - DO IT
Whether they have posted a job or not. If your work is being cut to the point you can not tolerate it, heck test on 10 of them!! Pay close attention to the ones that request U.S. MTs only. They are not timed. They are open-book. You are going to learn alot. What have you got to lose? You still don't have to quit your job if you do not want to but please share these companies on this site.
I just saw another MT site advertising a service that offshores that boasts the company as
transcription companies in the US! Of course, it doesn't surprise this long time MT considering the owner of the site highly promotes offshore transcription. I am disgusted and have canceled their newsletter.

Several companies still train on site. In fact, we are piloting an on-site training sm
program, where everyone would come in to the Keystrokes office to train for 1 or 2 weeks. We have a large training room and feel that this may be a way to cover all aspects of an account, be right there to answer questions as they come up and have one-on-one contact.
It will be optional at this point and may not be more effective as remote training, but some people have expressed that they miss the training that you get when you start at a hospital.
We are trying to bridge that gap between working in-house somewhere and working at home.
It may seem out-dated in many ways, but sometimes going back to basics is a good step to take!
I have noticed sometimes I will try to get into a web site and that site will freeze up and I dont
know if I have too many screens opened up and minimized or what. I tried to open a website sent by email and froze up the email screen. Not sure what I am doing.
I subscribe to another web site and within the boards on this site they have
Would anybody be interested if adminstrators would allow us to have this type of board or even put it on the main board. Like on this other board they tell you to go to a certain web site for a coupon for 20% off Barnes and Noble or when Target has reduced prices on seasonal things. Anybody got ideas or bargains they would like to share to save money? We could call it the MT Stars penny-pinchers board.
What Company is This? I have been hired by a company that is sending a foot pedal.. Don't want t
.
The company cutting cpl, the company stopping paying for headers
:{
Good of the company? As IC, I am my own company. Not my problem if she has problems as long as I do
:P
Accepted a job with a new company, gave two weeks notice to my old company..
Old company, let me go before two weeks was up. New company, said they were having trouble getting me set up and my equipment ready, but they would pay me while I waited. It's been a month, still no check from new company even though I was told it was "in the mail." I have no income and am at a loss.
I have a signed offer letter from the new company, contracts, etc. I applied for unemployment, but old company is saying I quit and technically I am currently employed with the new company! New company is not returning calls or answering email.
What should I do!?!?!?!
I started sending my resume out today, but the process of getting a new job will take at least two weeks and I need money now to catch up on what I'm behind!
You don't want to work for this company. Call your current company and
tell them that you have decided against the new position and tell them that you would like to stay. It is cheaper for them to let you stay than to train someone new. A company who could be so tacky as the one you just spoke of is one you do not want to work for. You can rescind your resignation. If you are a good MT, they will be glad you did.
With my company, ICs use their own emails, employees have company email.

....3 months later my old company rehired me; can you return to your 1st company?

Local radiology company, not transcription company
who has only 5 transcriptionists and are not hiring at this moment. We all work at home and get great benefits, no insurance out of pocket and 22 days paid vacation in the first year, after that it goes up. I feel very fortunate to have found them, but again I chose them because they did not do production, so now that they are, I'm a little disappointed.
I think it varies greatly from company to company...sm
I was hired five months ago by a national straight out of school at 8 cpl. I think it just depends on your knowledge level and ability, and of course, what the company is willing to pay.
i think it varies from company to company and/or location
VR company? Not when the MT company owns its own VR equipment. n/m.

I have my own company email with my new company.
I can't answer your questions in your original post, I can tell you that with my new company, I have my own company email account, and I much prefer it. My old company had us use our personal email accounts, and they listed everyone who received emails in the cc line. They really never maintained those lists, and I received emails from them for a full five months after I quit - that despite my repeatedly asking to be removed from lists. Because the list had been passed from one person to the next in the company, I kept having to block sender after sender. Finally I replied to all, for each and every email I had gotten over a month's time. Well, that pretty much ended it.
I like to keep work and personal separate as much as possible.
It can vary from company to company.
If a company is on one coast and you on the other it can affect shift time, meaning usually if you want to start work 9-10 instead of 11 you could for 3rd shift, etc.
Buy your own... company computers are for that company only!

some of what you want to know varies from company to company,
client to client. The services each have their own QA grading system and you will get a copy at hire that tells you everything they deduct, and for how many points. This usually also includes formatting, such as wrong dates, right exam/wrong patient, etc.
You will need to know your punctuation and grammar first and foremost and use it properly, this is what you do. THEN if the client requests garbage in/garbage out (usually because they don't trust leaving anything up to us), you give it to them even though it hurts -- and should not be marked off QA for it.
Where do you study? Colleges with the 2 yr transcription course in my state make you take a year (or 2) of English grammar. No offense, but it's pretty much a 5th/6th grade review (is vs are, doctors' vs doctor's).
blanks will be limited, usually to 2, before you cannot send the report to client.
Wrong shortcuts - pay attendion to detail.
Varies from company to company
My first company I chose specifically because I knew they had a mentoring program and you had 12 weeks of "mentoring" to get up to speed. The training was very thorough. The first week was all training classes. There were very limited samples (1-2 per doc if at all). I worked there 6 months and never made their production quota, but they didn't care. When I asked my account manager about it, she said they knew the account was very difficult 95+% ESLs) and she wasn't worried about my production, that I was doing well.
I have also worked with companies that just did a training over the phone (usually about an hour) just to learn the platform. Then they did full QA for a day or two and then I was on my own. For both of these companies, I could review all the past reports of the doctors on the platform. That was really nice. I didn't have production requirements with these positions, just a daily schedule that I had to stick to. They just wanted to know when I would be working.
My recent company gave me a 10-minute training over the phone and gave me a couple of samples of a couple of the harder docs. I then had to submit 3 reports to the account manager to review, and then I was off on my own and was required to meet production immediately.
So it all depends. Each company is different. Good luck on the new job!
Try the company board with name of company.

need web site
Does anyone have a link for a good website for surgical references, op note references.
other site
unfortunately I'm pretty new here and don't know the other big web site, but would like to know what it is so I, too can see what other MQers are saying about this weekend....
other site
MT Chat
Job site
Does anyone know the site that is from A-Z with MT jobs posted? I certainly do appreciate your help.
what site is it?
buddies at work and it won't copy...
Go on their web site and see what
they really are. (They also provide MTStars.) They are a service for private contractors and service owners so as not to have to buy lots of and lots of electronic equipment but can use their servers, etc. They are not a transcription service, it sounds like to me. If you read what they say, the provide a number for your doctors to call and then you can transcribe it or download it for 10 cents a minue (1 cent a line) and not have to buy a system yourself. At least that is what it looks like to me.
I don't think there is a web site to
check it out - software is developed by in-house tech support. It is not perfect (nothing in this life is) but is a good tool to use in this job and I'm very happy with it. DRC has been a good place for me for the last 2 years or so.
There should be a web site
listing all these crap companies who won't pay. If I bounced a check at my local mom & pop pizza joint, you can bet it would be pinned to the wall for all to see.
However, back to the OP: The thing I would worry about would be the OP getting stiffed for the money AND getting a 1099 that included that sum. That would be a real kick in the pants.
Oh I will look at that site and see sm
if it has the wheelwriter or selectric on there. If so, I will definitely buy it!
on WM's site .. sm
Maybe you just didn't notice it. If you make a quick trip to the website and look at most any item, you should see it. Sometimes says similar items, similar artists, etc.
The story was on MSNBC so I think it is true. I'm surprised so many would jump and call someone else a liar without checking facts first. Washington Post released WM's apology at 8:24 this morning so I'm sure it was in other news segments as well.
FWIW, I agree with the OP that it was probably someone with extra time on their hands up to no good.
Here's one site that has (sm)
some different cuts. Lots of tips on selecting a cut too!
PA site
Try the AAPA website--there's a FAQ portion that tells all about PAs and what they do.

What does FTP site mean?
Thanks!
Does the site have...
XXXXXX If so, I've been banned, too! If so, totally a case of "The Ego Has Landed."
FTP site
Is is difficult to learn how to operate a FTP site and how would one go about it? It is all new to me and I'm a bit apprehensive.
Yes, you can, go to the IRS site and they have - sm
and electronic payment system. You can have money paid to them every week, month, etc. I set up an account and was going to do about $50 a week, but alas I have not made any payments as yet. I usually don't owe though as my DH takes enough out of his taxes to cover mine. I will only start making payments if I go over a certain monthly income, since then I will probably owe and I don't want that.

trying to post to www.homesteadingtoday.com Thanks.
See site....sm
This is where I got the bracelets. http://www.magneticjewelry.name/
Didn't save the ring site so got to find that one again. Don't know about what's in the bracelets, but the rings have worn some and look like them might be copper. They were gold and silver when new, but underside has worn to look like copper. Rings were $13.00 each. Bracelets were probable about that 15-20. Really don't remember. I didn't get the cheapest or the most expensive.
Here's a site that might help..
It has a lot of info on WP12, and some info on default settings. Maybe go to tools - settings - dialog box and see if you change it there.
http://cit.information.unl.edu/tips/wpo12installtips.pdf
Where's the site?
I clicked on the link and there was no article there - I would like to read it - I don't doubt for a minute that it is being done, but I just wanted to read the article for myself.
Web site BOS
I found this web site a few years ago. I've seen little variation from the BOS and what they say here. This print out is very concise with the things you would be looking for the most.
Hope this helps.

Web site
Can somebody point me in the direction of a good web site for cardiology - I have recently started doing PTCA and cardiac caths and have no clue as to the majority of the catheters, guides, etc. Any help will be truly appreciated.
I use an FTP site...sm
For downloading voice files and uploading my completed work. I use FTP Voyager. It is 49.95 initially and costs me 24.95 yearly to renew. I am not a pc whiz and this program is very easy for me to use. I gave you the address below if you want to check it out and see if this is what you are looking for. It is www.FTPvoyager.com I hope this helps. Good luck.
