How is that falsfying payroll records ? - sm

In Reply to: That's called cheating and scamming and - you deserved to be fired and prosecuted!
she is only paid for what lines she produces at each job. I am sure her MTSOs must think she is slow though in terms of production, but that is her problem. Also what is unethical/criminal about it? I gather you only work 1 job and think it is wrong to work for more than 1 company at a time. Obviously I disagree with that idea. Sure most companies would prefer you only work for them, but most cannot give you enough work to pay the bills, so you need 2 jobs, plus it is not wise to have all your eggs in one basket. If you lose your job then your are screwed, but if you have 2 then at least you still have some income coming in.

okay, york hospital said they had delivery records, but no prenatal records. sm
they had no idea who she practiced with or anything like that and of course SIL doesn't know any name other than Freundel. i am also a midwife besides being an MT and in order for me to take her given her bicornuate uterus, i have to have her records. i guess delivery records is better than nothing, LOL, but i have to have her prenatal records. i wonder if there is a clinic there or something that med students rotate through. i couldn't even find ms. freundel on AMA, but she may not be through with her training yet either and that is probably why.
patient records and prisoner records
Does anybody know if our USA prison system is keeping prisoner records in the good old USA, or are those records offshore outsourced too? I am just curious because it seems to me that law enforcement in general does not offshore records, and I was wondering about prisoner records? If anybody knows, please post. Thanks in advance.
Yep, she used to be in payroll.

it isn't just payroll tax
the GST/HST is added to everything you buy - so an additional 13% on food, clothing, cars, energy, education, housing, etc., etc., etc. And while it may be $50 a check for you for some people it would be a lot more and for some a lot less. Hmmmm, sounds kinda like redistribution to me.
No need to submit anything for payroll if you are SE.
The platform keeps track of your lines and dates worked. As an SE, you choose your own hours and they expect you to work them, but actual time does not need to be submitted. They, of course, would prefer you also send in a time sheet, but cannot require it.
That is not just for payroll. It's how to find your
xx
That isn't just for payroll. I am from the Southeast
and we were told by supervisors to use the method to read reports to check reports we had to send to QA if we wanted to see how they looked when the client gets them. 
I also talked to payroll and they
are the ones who told me it was a live check. It is not direct deposit.
Payroll service sm
I used a payroll service, the cost was very nominal and they do all the work, keep all the records, send you statements, make out the payroll check and you hand everything over to the tax guy at the end of the year. I did open a separate checking account, it is much easier than mixing it up with your own money, keep it separate, no incorporation necessary unless you expect to expand. Just an opinion, of course. You can pay your own taxes from your account at the end of the year if you don't pay yourself each week, you can pay self-employment tax and use a Schedule C for yourself, be sure to keep some money in the bank for this.
2005 Payroll Schedule
The payroll schedule for MedQuist states PayDate as 07/11/05 (Monday).
no you crack me up. if you are on mq payroll, you should really take a cut. not to clever to not
be able to disguise alias when trying to devise a multiple personality back-up to your multiple posts backing MQ. LOL. Nice try! 
No time sheet - but something to payroll? nm
.
No you aren't supposed to go there. That's for payroll.
Any lawyers in the house?
If you talked to payroll, they must have told you what it was for. What was it for? nm.
nm.
it clearly says for payroll. i had to download microsoft office to see it.
it shows everything past and prior line counts. i counted the spaces and lines and they did not add up to MQ version some times. wonder of the MQMT lawyers have seen this.
I already said that I talked to payroll and asked why this was in IPAY,
They said that we will be receiving a check in the mail with a letter explaining it. They would not go into detail. I don't know how much more clear I need to make this for you.
Payroll law? MDI-Fl now pays 6th working day after end of payperiod.
California laws say must be paid on or before the 5th working day after end of pay period. Because the company is in Florida, would their law supercede California law?
I'd ask my friend if her MTSO would like someone familiar with the account on her payroll.

Apply for a business loan to meet payroll.
Such lies. Just yesterday I had a payroll problem. 1 phone call, person answered, and IMMEDIATELY
remedied the situation. There are always people there to help us. Wendy is just lying, and like I'll bet she's lying about her name! Its sooooooooo stupid to do this stuff when you're a disgruntled ex.
Yes, you can get the records. sm
First of all, let me say congratulations on getting out of a bad situation. I've been there and done that, and I know that it's not easy. Everyone seems to think that it's just an automatic response to leave, and no one seems to understand why a spouse would stay after something like that, but unless they've been there themselves, they just don't understand how hard it is. So {{big hugs}} to you and stay strong.
Now, as far as the records... yes, they are public and you can request them. You need to know the names of the towns/cities where he's lived and where he may have been charged before, and then simply call the court clerk there to request any and all documents.
As far as him having scratched himself to try to show you were the aggressor, I wouldn't even worry about it. That's a common tactic that abusers use to try to shift the blame. It won't work. He's not as slick as he thinks he is.... anyone who's dealt with abusers before knows that this is a pretty common trick that they use.
Please, stay strong and keep yourself safe. I've been there, and I know it's not easy. You were with this person because you loved them, and that doesn't just magically disappear once they hit you. It would be much easier if it did. Try to prepare yourself for the inevitable crying, apologizing, swearing he'll get help, etc. It can all be very believable and convincing, but trust yourself and your instincts, and if you need to talk, I'm here.
Can top that... in my mom's records
the pt is a 52 yo woman of "advanced age"... it put about 10 years on her when she read it... I don't think she would have been near as upset with the doctor if he had performed the wrong surgery as she was about that one....LOL
Even if ALL records are on EMR, there will
still be a need for MTs. For facilities not on VR the reports still have to be typed and the ones doing VR need editors. An EMR does not mean there is no need for MTs, just means that the records will be computerized for easier access.
I have also gotten my records for sm
hospitalizations for a chronic illness (all 64 admissions) and the records are a mess. But its not with BOS errors, it is with gross medical errors!!!!!
I think the so-called standardization should be that these places hire MTs that know what the heck they are doing. The hospitals and clients can figure out their own account specifics. I have hired plenty of MTs in my career and no way would I turn a good MT away who knows their "medical stuff" but doesn't know the specifics of the BOS! Thats like cutting off your nose to spite your face which is what htese companies are doing. I think they are more worried about the BOS because the people doing the hiring now dont' even know how to do MT themselves. I guess the only thing they can relate to and know anything about is that doggone BOS!
Doctor's records
When a physician retires or otherwise closes his practice, he must offer his patients the opportunity to pick up a copy of their records, which he may or may not charge for photocopying. The original records must be kept by the physician for a period of 7 years after the practice closes.
Digital Records - SM
Most come with software and a docking station and software. He would need to dock the recorder and transfer the files to you, either via e-mail or send them to a secure FTP site. If you order it through Transcription Gear, it comes with really cool software, including a player for you.
It's not so much as my records personally....
it's the idea of a large group of United States records being sent because if they can find a way to use it against our country, they will.
What do you mean, prisoner records? (sm)
Most medical records are handwritten. All records having to do with crime, time served, etc., are computerized. Many states have web sites that allow you to access the records and see if people are still in or released. What would there be to offshore?
Records for working as an IC?
I have been fortunate enough to work at only one place now for 7 years and be happy, BUT things have not been the greatest lately. I am considering taking a position with another company part time, but it would be an IC position.
My question is, are there any special records I have to keep for tax purposes and so forth working as an IC? I know I am responsible for my own taxes, right?
Any advice or info is appreciated. I have never worked as an IC before, so I feel a little green on this topic.
and this is how our records are transcribed =(

Illegal records
I worked for a hospital years ago and sometimes the dictation did not come through our system correctly even though the doc knew he dictated it. We had several docs who absolutely REFUSED to re-dictate, stating they dictated once and that was it. Several times, I personally had charts out of the hospital (which would scare me now to do this) at my boss' request and made up or gleaned from the chart the discharge summary. This was an orthopedic doc that I also worked for, by the way, so I practically knew what he was going to say before he said it. Several of us did quite a few charts like this as some of the docs WOULD NOT, absolutely WOULD NOT re-dictate and we needed the discharge summary and/or op report in the report. Scary or not, we did it. Don't know as I would do it now, though.
School records
My husband works at a school, and I can verify that school records are legally confidential, just like medical records. Only authorized personnel have access. I do not ever remember giving family history information, but schools now are required to have a nurse on staff who handles any medications the child is on, etc. I do know schools are required to provide physical therapy and speech therapy if a student needs it, as my child has cerebral palsy and had to have PT. The school was required to either provide it there or provide transportation to a facility where she could receive it. I thought this was a bit ridiculous because I thought that was my responsibility, but I guess the state feels like some chldren would not receive the help they need otherwise.
Old patient records
Does anyone know when you no longer have an account what do you do with the old records. Can they be deleted because they are no longer your account or do you have to save them in case the account ever needs them? All their notes over the years have either been printed and delivered or emailed to them and I don't keep them past a year.
Old patient records
When I closed up my accounts, I always gave the reports I saved on CDs back to the clinics. After all, I didn't need them any longer.
Health records
Where can I locate the AHDI recommendation on length of time for MT business to retain health records?
If it's ok with you if your health records
go to some filthy disgusting third-world country, at the expense of your own job and livelihood, be my guest. FYI HIPAA laws are only for this country. they can do whatever they want with your private health records. It's not just fires. The QA sucks, communication barriers suck, economic consequences of MTs who have lost their jobs BECAUSE of greedy Indian MTs,.... List goes on. Go ahead and be a bleeding heart, but don't be surprised when your job security stops beating as well.
It's horrible, all old records mean nothing sm
Our docs' private practice uses this now. As patients we asked where our old records were as no more charts and we both had very serious illnesses. Told they are in the basement should they have to refer but were asking questions they should have known the answers to. It was as if we never existed on the face of the earth to them after 18 years. I'm disgusted, it's like your past history means nothing to them. I would like to slap them but I can't. Jeesh, what next? The pharmacy now connects electronically to them and we were told not to call for Rx anymore, just call the pharmacy. The pharmacy said it could take up to a week. We have to call and remind them to check their computer as we are waiting for a refill okay. Robotic! Electronic supermarket checkouts, Rx's, digital phones, no people. Even the casino uses paper tickets now instead of money coming out. It sure goes in as money though! And if it ever does come out in a ticket, you have to go to another "machine" to get the money. Don't gamble but once or twice a year and just a sign of the times, everywhere you go, no people - just robotic machines. Surgery included! Detachment from people!
Just because the records go overseas
does not mean the laws are being broken. Granted, they cannot be enforced, however, if the company doing the overseas transcription does not follow the guidelines, then something might be done. However, unless there are specific cases, you cannot say laws are being broken. I am sure their contracts state they have to abide by our laws.
medical records on the net
I think this drive to put medical records on the net will ultimately put us all out of work.
Are old records from AAMT available??? sm
Silly question but 18 yrs as CMT, tons of CME's (overly done) and president of local chapter for years. Was that all for nothing?? Hate to even ask!
Electronic Medical Records?? What do you think? SM
Ok, so I went to my doctor's office today and noticed that they just installed a computer station for all doctors in the clinic to start doing their own records while they are visiting you! What do you guys think?? Is this the end of our profession or is our profession going turn it to something else..like editing those reports that the doctors have to type.
Is this a real problem or will it be many years from now before it effects us? Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks....
50, A.S. in Medical Records Technology.
Of course now that course would be called HIM. Transcription was included. My first job was in a physician's office and consisted of mostly transcription. High school courses were heavy in typing. I do not know that I could contribute to a rebuttle. The company that I just left had mostly older employees. This company just closed. Now I am an IC with about the same pay. I do not believe that there are as many young people entering the profession. Part of that is because it is hard work, and no longer pays well in proportion to other jobs they can train for. Also, who wants to spend money and time training for a job that may be outsourced at any time? The only young people I know going into this profession are doing it because they want to work at home. This once was a good profession to enter, but now things really seem to be going sour.
Look up cyberterrorism in medical records.
Was the person in Pakistan who threatened to post VA medical records on the Internet unless they were paid off with thousands of dollars in cash? Give me an American with a criminal background check any day.
What happens to pt. records if an MD closes his office??
If an MD in solo practice retires or leaves town, where do those records go and how would one go about obtaining needed records? Any help is appreciated.
records for line count
How long do you keep files for review or audit if you are an independent Transcriptionist for physicians. Can they audit my lines? Anyone ever heard of this. I was concerned because of the MQ problem; however, I only have one doctor - not anything like MQ.
Who would be interested in my medical records?
I just can't image anyone being all that interested in my medical records, so I really don't worry about anyone seeing them.
Electronic Medical Records
/
I think that only he and Taylor will sell their records....sm
I can't envision ever buying anything that Katherine or Elliott recorded.
Katherine should have gone home last night.
I think Taylor will sell records
I have his second indie CD and it's fabulous. All original songs, written by him, and it's great. Grab it if you can. I really don't think Kat will do all that much after this, really. I don't think she has the draw to bring people out to a concert. Obviously, Taylor does. I think Kelly Clarkson could have taken that song that Kat butchered and at least tried to do something with it...made it something worth listening to. Kat really, really messed that one up.
Well, get over it. Medical records are one thing...
your boss saying something about you is another. In my opinion, the more the government stays out of it, the better off we are. Double edged sword, ya know.
electronic medical records
Does anyone have info regarding EMR rules for doctors. I was told by a physician today that by 2010 that all doctors were supposed to be EMR. What will this do to our transcription jobs? Any info appreciated.
