I've never heard of a company having to pay
when they got out of TAT. In the contract it states that TAT time is, and if consistently out of TAT is a negotiable point for renewal/cancellation of the contract, but no financial penalty to the company for not meeting it. My company is out of TAT 80% of the time and rarely offer a bonus to work extra, though does occasionally offer bonus, more often just asks everyone to work 2 more hours.
Try #*11. That's the code I've used with every company. sm
That was # * 11, pound, star, 11 just in case you couldn't see it.
Good luck!
What company uses this? I've only had ADT or ADP in the past. nm

No, and I've been with the company 3 years. sm
If you're having problems e-mail me and maybe I can make some suggestions.
You should never leave a company until you've had
a chance to try out the new company for this very reason. I know lots of MTs that work for 2 to 3 companies because none of the companies has enough work.
I've been seriously thinking about it. I actually like my company this year.
However, I have no money because work is slow and my kids and bills come first. I've been thinking about baking cookies and candies to mail. The people I would like to give the gift to work at home anyway, so sending it to corporate HQ wouldn't accomplish gifting those I want to thank. I can't afford to send individual gifts to each of them. Plus, a little part of me considers buying things for your supervisor to be brown-nosing.
Maybe your company wants it that way? I've used it for years and Never had it check

I've know the owner and it is a small company. He doesn't know the first
thing about MT, word processing programs, etc. I have worked for the company through 3 owners and now I do prn work for him.
QT nedical is a smaller national but overall the best company I've ever come across. nm

You've been trying to say doctor envy on the company board all morning?
No wonder you get flamed. You think people don't like other posters because they might be a doctor? You been posting all morning and now this afternoon and you are concerned about work ethic? Sorry Charlie your post and your actions make NO SENSE. 
I've worked weekends for 10 years, now I want to move onto a company
that does not require at least one weekend day. I realize hospitals are open 24/7 but you would think that companies seeking good MTs would be more willing to offer a M-F shift.
I've never come close to earning $20 in years of doing this. Troubles with every company, usually

ARGH.. Have you gone to the gas station lately
or to the grocery store. Do you have a clue what your utilities are going to be this coming winter and WORK FOR LESS. YOU ARE BONKERS
It's slow everywhere right now. But, we have to man the station.

Lanier station
not sure where to post this, but I have a complete Lanier 219 station that I am going to sell. Any offers will be considered.
Went to the Prometric Testing Station
I took my CMT exam yesterday. It took almost 4 hours and was one of the hardest tests I've ever taken. The test gets all done and it just says that you've "passed" and will be getting your certificate and pin "in the mail." Couldn't they have the screen show a display of fireworks or flash "CMT, CMT...." at you.
And I really want to know what I scored. I know they can't give me the answers to particular questions because other people will be taking the test, but at least give me a number so I know if I'm really good or just okay. I'm obsessive that way I guess. I've been looking up everything I was unsure of, and I've only found one question I missed for sure, but I know there are stupid mistakes. And I know I'll be waking up at night in a cold sweat remembering something else I need to look up. Okay, I've finally gone nuts. 
Lanier Remote Station
Can anyone send me instructions on how to program an older Lanier remote transcription system? I think it is an LX-128? I just don't remember. I took my out of the closet to see if it works and have lost my instructions. Everything is all plugged in and works. HOwever, I get a double tone and not a dial tone. I remember having to program it but it has been sooooooo long ago. Any help would be appreciated.

I did this to put myself through college for my associate's degree. It was horrible in the middle of winter - kept me focused on my studies however.
Call the news station in your location
who handles this sort of complaint. Once you contact the media, you will be paid immediately. Good Luck!!!
Go to the police station and they can look him up and tell you who is parole officer is. nm

Philips Transcription Station and Vonage
Years ago, I used a Philips Digital Transcription Station to get my MT work. It would plug into my landline jack and then I could dial in to get the jobs to transcribe. This week, the machine has returned since I am trying to help out someone with their work. Unfortunately, I no longer have a landline. I switched to Vonage over the summer. When I try to connect, it dials the phone number, I hear the computer voice that tells me to enter my ID # and then when I do that it is supposed to validate my number and show me the available jobs. It starts the validating process but then times out and hangs me up. Has anyone had problems like this and if so have you been able to fix it.....help please!!!
Lanier station with Comcast Digital
I have used this for quite some time with no problems. I have also used a C-phone and Voice Solutions Digital Workstation with Comcast and it works just fine. The only thing you may have a problem with is having dictation cut out periodically or what sounds like "choppy" dictation (and this occurs VERY rarely) and all you have to do is disconnect the phone lines and power from the back of the device you are using, wait a few minutes and plug back in and it should work. Other than that, NO problems!
Voice Solutions DA-128 transcribe station help
Anyone know how to set the M1, M2, and M3 phone number memory buttons on this? Thanks!
Check your local police station, that'd be the place to look.
I bet they don't outsource that.....or do they? Interesting.
Lanier station w/Comcast digital voice
Will this work? A couple of years ago I tried a Lanier with Vonage and it didn't. I don't want to go through the setup trouble only to be disappointed again. I really need more minutes than my 5000 per month with Qwest. Has the technology changed to make the Lanier compatible with internet phone service? Thanks if you can help me. 
Need Lanier ExWriter to test. Will VDI station or C-phone work or can I rerecord?
I am unfamiliar with the Lanier ExWriter. Can somebody please fill me in? I have a C-phone, VDI station, a call-in system with L.E.E.C.H. capabilities that can download work onto my system from another, or rerecord equipment. Can you access files from call-in systems like you can with a regular telephone and C-phone? How is the sound quality? I am not to thrilled with the .dss or WAV files.
Thanks!
Outrageous. I just forwarded to a local radio station in my area. Who else can we send this to?

I have used a Digital Transcribe Station from Transcription Gear in lieu of a C phone just fine nm
Local radio station is giving away American Idol concer tickets. sm
They're running a contest for 2 free tickets. With the entry, you have to list what you would be willing to do in exchange for these tickets. The best/most original idea will win the tickets. Any suggestions? It has to be something the person would really be willing to do. I really want these tickets!!

I've changed them between an old phone and new phone, but the same company, i.e. Nextel.

I use EXText with my current job and I've used at a couple of other jobs I've had. I've ne
used DocQscribe, but I have used Meditech, Cerner, Vianeta, the Precyse platform (I can't remember the name), Dolbey, and Lanier platform I think was called Cequence (?).
Out of all the different platforms I have typed on, I have liked EXText the best. In my opinion, it's very user friendly, easy to learn, and I really like ESP which is the built in abbreviation expander. Plus it is very easy to create your own normals which I love. My fingers literally never leave the keyboard because there are macro keys for everything. You can use your mouse if you prefer or learn the function macros. I love it. I think I'm more productive on EXText than with any other platform.
It is a GREAT company and great deal! I've had
Vonage about 6 months now and I love it. The only mistake I made was trying to keep my original phone # - I wouldn't recommend that. You have a temp # for a while, and the other provider can fight for the old #, etc. Go to vonage. com. They have new features all the time! There is even a new soft phone that is a phone on your screen. You don't need a real phone when working - just headset. It has 800 #s you can have very inexpensively - great voice mail. You get emails when you have new messages, etc. I only wish I had used them a year ago! Nothing but good things to say, and I complain about everything!

As you can already see, you've come to the wrong board! By using the word professional, you've
excluded about 99% of the population of "whatever" it is that hangs on these boards. Certainly not professional for sure! But you sure are doing a good thing for someone! Its the thought that counts. Sorry you met the dregs right at the start.

If you're supposed to be paid a certain $/line, that's what you should be getting no matter how they do billing unless of course it's specified in YOUR contract with THEM.
BTW, I've never caught a company cheating me ever.
I've used it. It's the worst piece of crap I've ever seen.
seriously. I wouldn't wish them on my worst enemy, or their Vianeta program. Awful, just awful.
Wait until you've been there six months and if you've improved
quality and quantity, I'd say go ahead and ask. Otherwise I'd say annually... good luck
I've seen the same every place I've done acute care, and
pointing out dangerous or repeated errors (often in normals for goodness sakes!) never got the result I expected. When I would press the issue, supervisors said if the dictators didn't complain, then the mistakes must not matter!
It didn't matter if the MT changed what had been a cardiac med in the beginning of the report to an antifungal by the end - I kid you NOT! One poor girl used facial for fascial and fascial for facial!

One thing I do to get around this, is to create a macro and then link the ShortHand command to the macro. It works for me, but I do the same five clients every day and only have about 20 or 30 macros/Shorthand commands that work like this. This may not work well for you if you have lots of formats and hundreds of docs.

I can tell what's a stutter, what's another word, what's just an "uh." Years of experience will get you through a lot.
Wouldn't want to do his charts all day, of course, but a few per day aren't bad. I haven't had to send his to review in a long time, but they do take a little longer to shuffle through.
I've worn contacts for 30 years. I've had both
hard and soft. My vision is much better with the soft ones than they were with the hard ones. When I first started trying contacts soft ones were still new and they couldn't get me to 20/20, so I went to hard. Hard were okay until my eyes started changing shape and then I could no longer wear hard ones. The soft should give you better vision as they conform more to the shape of your eye.
