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.
I need step-by-step instructions to make a macro in word that aligns automatic numbered list to the
HELP!!!!! Thanks in advance.
Don't know where my interior message went, but any call is traceable - sm
I was being harassed years ago by a "boyfriend wannabe" so I used the *57 when he made his crank calls....he eventually gave up after I started unplugging the phone at night (it would just ring and ring to him, but I, of course, would not know about it. There have to be enough *57s though to be looked into for them to take action though, at least that is what they told me (this was 15 years ago though...things have changed a bit since then). Good luck.
Left a message, still no call back.
Will call again today.
I kept getting a recorded message to call some company..
I had never heard of, sometimes twice a day. So, finally I called it and it obviously went to India. I told him, not very politely, that I was tired of getting their recordings and they needed to remove me from whatever list I was on. He was still sputtering and stammering when I hung up. Grrrrr!
You can call Mr. L directly. I just did and left a message.
Go to this link and call the number directly. He is at this office and they will put you right through to him/his voice mail:

In our home, we call it the Red Rule - see message
The Red Rule means that we do not bother mama if she is working unless somebody is bleeding or the house is on fire - Red Rule. :O)
Call Dr office and leave message about this.

One small step for MTs, one giant step for the US! -nm
.
Follow his directions step-by-step.
Once the Macro is in place, you can add it to your toolbar by right clicking on the toolbar you want it to appear on. Choose customize (bottom of menu). Click on the Command tab and choose Macros from the left-hand side of the box. Find Normal.NewMacros.GetLineStrictCount from the right-hand side of the box. Left mouse click on that macro one time and hold the button down. Drag the command to the toolbar in the location where you want it to be. You should now see a large box with the entire name of the macro inside. Right click on that box for the drop-down menu to change the appearance of that button and you're in business.
I have to share this. Got a call from a doctor today inquiring about my service. See message.
He apparently has been working with a service that outsources to India and he is so fed up at the bad quality of the transcription in addition to the fact that he wants to work with someone who actually speaks English! How about that!! They will all learn the hard way, but they will learn. There may be hope for American MTs yet.
Better to take a step up than a step backwards.
Congratulations!
Help! I need step-by-step instructions for MS
When the dictator says "same" for the postop diagnosis, do I have to highlight, copy, and paste from the preop diagnosis, or is there a simple one-step keystone that can be done to automatically copy (hope that makes sense).
got the "phone call" -- get this, MQ has hired a bunch of telemarketers to call all of us to
we received our "incentive packet." They don't even have the wherewithall to contact us personally. These are temp-agency hired telemarketers sitting around a boiler room making sure we're reading our mail.... told him it don't pertain to me because I've been demoted from FT to SE.... He said, "yes, the letter is vague, but it does pertain to FT as well as SE...." yeah right, we'll see.
Venting-why do people keep putting nm and THEN writing a message?? nm means no message - sm
Please put sm if you have a message and NM if there is no message other than your subject line. It makes it easier when reading these messages. thanks so much and have a nice day everyone.
*70 will disable call waiting unless you are expecting a call and want it on (nm)

step outside the box?
I'm looking at your samples and asking myself, "How would I ever remmember that?"
To the moderator - you need to step up
and block this flamer from the board. We come here to chat nicely because we have isolating jobs and don't get out much. There is absolutely no need for someone to make these kind of statements to a mother. If her purpose is just to cause upset, then clearly she has no place here. Do the right thing.
Career Step
Hi - have any of you received your training from Career Step? If so, would you recommend the program? Thanks for you feedback.
Well, that's a step in the right direction!!!
Level the playing field a bit!
Thx for sharing!

I am considering going to Career Step. I have been working as an MT for a few months now, but I do not feel that the course I took prepared me for the "real" world of transcription. My only question is that I also noticed the price diff in these online courses. That is primarily the reason why I am choosing to go with Career Step. MTec seems like a good school, but they are 3x as much. Will I get just as good an education?
Career Step
It's true, you get what you pay for. Andrews is #1, M-Tec is #2, and Career Step is a distant 3rd.
Career Step
I am attending Career Step. I have also been hired as a MT while still attending. I think the course is good. Good luck!!

Career Step
is the largest online school of medical transcription. You can join their forum even if you are not a student so that you can see for yourself what the grads in the forum say about their training. They are in there talking about their jobs all the time. Big companies like Spheris and Medquist and Transolutions hire CS graduates.
Not a Mom, just step-Mom and aunt
I tried for years to have a child, lost many early on in pregnancy and it was many years ago prior to the advances that they have now adays. But I do have two step-daughters -- one remembers me one does not even though I am divored from their father. She and I have stayed close and neither have seen their Dad since our divorce. But I have two nephews and a niece in the area that I am very close to who now have children ranging from 4 to 18. One of my great nephews told me yesterday, I am not a Mom but close, better than a Grandma because I am special Aunt Patti. So that made my day. For some reason the Lord chose for me to be that special person to my many nephews and nieces which I truly enjoy. And I get to send home when they become "too much". Love it and cherish my time with them.
12 step programs, which above are
referring to, are all based on God, a higher power - surrendering to that higher power, and then healing following the 12 steps. Leaving religion out of recovery is rather contradictory!
Career Step
Have you been to Career Step's website. It is a very friendly community there and you would get lots of support on their forums. www.careerstep.com.
Some need to step out of their box for a moment - eh! LOL. nm

Is Career Step it?!
Any graduates of Career Step? Any information about how you felt about your experience would be greatly appreciated. I was so impressed by the website and information that I have received in the mail. I make $10/hr now in an office job. What are the chances that I can meet this as a grad?
Career Step is IT!
Hi,
I'm a CS graduate and would HIGHLY recommend them. I was so well prepared, I received a job offer in less than 24 hours from one of the top employers, AND I was able to start out in acute care as a grad.
Email me if you have additional questions. CS ROCKS!!!!
you gotta step outside the box a little...sm

Look at Career Step
If you know the content you can take the tests.
oh gosh. I would have had to step away for
hours probably..... I do ER reports and had 4 bad ones in a row earlier this week - makes me really count my blessings. My toes curl typing procedures I have had or my children have had - I've never done an OP note such as you described... I don't think I could handle at all.
If not my kid, then the parents need to step up
and take care of their own child. If I need to work, do not babysit period. I took care of my children when they were little and they can take care of theirs. No time to spare when working.
Career Step
Career Step is one of the top 3 AHDI-approved schools. If you work well independently at your own pace, it may be a good program for you. It is an online course. I know from experience that employers will hire for at-home transcription work immediately after graduation from CS.
Re: Career Step
Hello,
I just began the Career Step Online Training Course a couple of weeks ago. You answered a question to a concern that I had from the very start. I wondered if they really help the student transition into an at-home MT position upon completion of the course. You stated that "from experience" you can say that they get you to work right after graduation.
If you don't mind me asking, can you give me some feedback on your experience with Career Step, please? How long did it take you to complete the course? How long after completion did you obtain employment at home? Is it fairly easy to understand what the physician is saying as you transcribe? How do they prefer to pay their at home employees? Those are examples of questions I have.
Looking forward to hearing from you! :)

Career Step
Don't listen to that "only Andrews or M-TEC" line. Career Step has a great program for much less money, and they do place their graduates.
Career Step?
I have over five years experience in psychiatric transcription. I started at a counseling facility with no experience or training -- just a good command of the English language and a good typist.
Anyway, I went about five years doing no transcription. I recently got a home position doing psych trans. again. I would like to continue working for this company, but broaden my skills in acute/medical. Of course, there is some medical in psych transcription, but limited.
My question is: Has anyone here been through Career Step and is it worth the money? Also, do you think it would benefit, or should I just try to gain experience as I go?
Thanks!!
Career Step
Career Step is a great program for people who prefer self-directed independent study. It is one of the top 3 schools and is approved by AHDI. You do get jobs afer completing the CS final. I had a job within a few days and have had no problems since then finding MT work.
Career Step
Hi. Has anyone used the Career Step program for medical transcription? I am currently working for MQ and received my training while in high school, but my fiance is going to be training with them soon. I was wondering if it was easy to find a job afterward and how you liked the course?
Take a step back and look at it again... sm
** ... in this situation they are asking us to LOSE money for THEIR profit.**
Your MTSO is NOT asking you to lose money so they can laugh all the way to the bank. They're asking you to pitch in to keep their accounts in TAT so they don't LOSE those accounts.
If your MTSO can't keep their commitments, can't keep their clients happy, they lose the work... and ALL of the MTs will be affected by that loss, even YOU, Princess. Maybe especially YOU if you're a relatively new hire, have no seniority and a whiny attitude.
CanScribe/Career Step
Hi,
I'm thinking of taking the CanScribe course, which is the Canadian equivalent to the Career Step program. I was wondering if there are others out there that have taken this program. I would like to get some feedback from those who have. Also, for those of you who are in Canada, what are the work from home opportunities like for MT? I don't want to go through all this and then have little prospect for employment in the end.
Thanks.
Future-step recruiter
I too spoke with this woman, only she told me she was recruiting for Medquist because they no longer wanted to outsource and wanted to bring all the work back to the States and that this is why they're on their hiring binge!
Go to M-Tec...more expensive than Career Step, but...
you will be a graduate of THE TOP SCHOOL. You will have many job offers and will be able to chose the one that fits you best. You can't go wrong with M-Tec.
Andrews is also very good. Career Step, while not in the scam-school category, is just a distant, very distant, third place in the MT school race.
Step back and punt.
Would he consent to something like that since it's his kids involved?
That's a good step in the right direction...
I have all girls, so for some reason they are not the least bit interested in video games, but they used to have their own TVs in their rooms and since we just moved this summer, I never hooked them back up. They don't watch half as much TV, maybe only 30 to 60 min a day now, if that. We all make mistakes. But I do think these video games are bad for little kids. Educational stuff maybe, but not the crud that's out there now. Good job.
The only way to change things it to take that first step

Yes, they should work, my step-daughter....
is 18, gets $700 a month in child support (this will continue until age 21) and has not felt the urge to work at all at any time. She will start college in the fall, has not saved any of her child support, has some scholarships and loans for school as well. She does not live with us, never has. When I asked her in April where she was working this summer after graduation she said she might work for a few days picking up litter on the road crew, but she had college to think of, was going away for the month of June, could only work a bit in July, and had to get ready for college in August!
Her sister, who is 22, got the same amount of child support, also did not save any of it (hers ended last year) and has found that working for a living is not all it is cracked up to be! Was offended that the child support did not last until she graduated from college, because how was she supposed to go to school and work at the same time? Hmm, most of us did that and are still alive to tell the tale!
You cannot beat a good work ethic and it starts young! Nothing better than paying for your own things with your own $$$ and not relying on anyone else.
Andrews or Career Step?
My SIL is really interesting in taking an MT course. I gave her the phone numbers for both of these schools. She is undecided about which one to go with. It looks like Career Step will be less money, but I've heard Andrews graduates seem to get hired more quickly and are getting the better jobs. Does anybody have experience with either of these schools that can offer some input? Any information would be welcome and appreciated! Thanks!
You're to be commended to step in....sm
and raise your grandchild. It's sad to me when I see birth parents have no family members that will arise to the meet the needs of the child.
I think I'm familiar with the case you talked about in Georgia as it resolved in the past few months, correct?
I can tell you that from my experience I've not heard of a foster parent being guaranteed a child for adoption unless the parental rights were terminated, and the courts require that DFCS/CPS provide proof that they've researched all possible family members. I've been involved in children's lives who couldn't live with relatives because the relatives didn't want them, they were drug users themselves or had a history of also committing crimes against children. I've seen the most recent federal mandates that have come out over the past couple of years regarding CPS/DFCS seeking relative placements and when they can't, then if the parental rights are terminated they are mandated to place that child into an adoptive home within a year if at all possible.
