Love cardiology, hate podiatry. Hate discharges, but
nm
Love psych notes. HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE,
HATE ER notes.
I hate to say it but I agree.
It's like, I already know Chris should win. He's the only one worth anything. I've watch this show since season 1, but I'm bored with it this year. Glad to see I'm not the only one who has lost interest this year.
I Agree. Know what I hate most?
The hyphen! Sometimes they add it, other times they'll take it out. What is up with that?
I agree. I hate to hear what you
went through as well. My husband and I tried to have children for 18 years, finally got pregnant with twins and lost them at 11 weeks, so I can certainly relate there. Talk about depression! I, too, came out of it and now have a 6 year old son and a 7 year old daughter (at 41 years old!), but hey, it all works out. I wish you the best!
Agree. I don't hate my profession as some are saying...
I just hate how my pay has gone. Two years ago I was happily making my $36 an hour as well--plus bonuses. Over the last couple of years my pay has gone down $16,000. My line counts have stayed the same and my accounts have stayed the same, the only thing that has changed is my paycheck.
I remember being on here a couple of years ago and thinking people were just whiners, but guess what happened!? It all happened to me too.
I hate outsourcing but I have to kind of agree
that while this does not apply to everybody, there are definately many 35 years old that act like they are about 10 including my husband who likes to throw temper tantrums for about just about everything.
Agree! I hate Daylight Savings Time. It takes me a good two weeks
to get myself and everybody in the household adjusted to the time change every six months. If the farmers need to get up earlier, let 'em! That doesn't mean I should have to, also! DST has definitely outlived its usefulness. I stay up later and get up earlier in the summer, but go to bed earlier and sleep later in the winter. It's like my mind and body are tied to the sun, not the clock. I never got an extra hour of sleep last night anyways because the neighbor's stupid dog barked from 2:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m.
podiatry
Does anyone know of any companies out there hiring for podiatry or orthopedics? Thanks
podiatry
Email Sharon at: Jobs@Transcriptionoutsourcing.com. She has just acquired a brand new ortho account. She is based in Milwaukee, I think, and hiring at-homers.
Podiatry
I am looking for a podiatry account. My daughter did podiatary for over five years and she is willing to help me with the terminology.
Also, is there a universal foot pedal that works with most medical transcription accounts? I have Spantel, but I am not sure if there are many accounts that use that program.
Thanks for any input and help.
Podiatry link
A good site for podiatry would be

Link for podiatry
Does anyone have a good link for podiatry terms?
I love ortho and podiatry. To each their own =) nm

Need a good podiatry reference
and I do not see one on the stedmans.com unless podiatry is rolled in with another specialty and I'm just missing it. Any recommendations?
Thanks bunches and happy MT week!
podiatry terminology - sounds like "rasmooth". Anyone know what the term is? TIA.
n
Just started podiatry, need good reference book.

I hate DocQSribe, I hate DocQScribe, I hate DocQScrbe, I hate DocQScribe, I hate DocQSribe.

I am looking for samples of podiatry notes typed in SOAP format. sm
I have a potential client who would like to see some samples typed up and then let him know how much that report would cost. I charge by the line, and this is something that he is not familar with. Would appreciate about 3 or 4 reports, hopefully one of them being lengthy. TIA
I hate those but I hate trauma notes on children even more sm
I used to work for a large hospital that saw a lot of children for various horrible things.
The very last one I did was a 12yo boy who had hung himself while his mother was at work. She thought he was in school. The doctor cried, I cried (as I usually did) and I just couldn't handle that anymore. That was the longest report I swear. Short in lines but the length was almost an hour. The doc didn't pause the machine, she cried, horrible gut wrenching sobs, and I did too, right along with her.
I don't hate AAMT at all, ks. I don't hate
their book. In fact, I love the BOS2. It is not a regular grammar book at all - there are hundreds of issues in it that are point specific to MTing and medical field. I have dozens of regular grammar books, too, for other purposes, and they are not similar at all. I purchased the BOS2 when out job interviewing for a few months. Every single employer wanted me to have my own company, and they all tested off of it. Several used it in their daily work, and I have found it priceless over all. I think its even on sale now, but $89 is not a lot for a professional tool that we should use if required, or if a newbie. MTs who don't like to buy books are not very wise in the big picture. Its like shooting yourself in the foot.
Agree, agree, agree! Just listen to Benny Hinn..
he speaks perfect English, especially when asking for money! Also, in my opinion, blanks should be left in the doc's dictation if not able to be transcribed, maybe then they will know that are NOT understood. With QA fixing them, what need is there for them to care if we understand them or not?
I HATE it when that happens nm
nm
I really hate that
for you. Had you gotten past that experience I believe you would have found it to be a place where you would have really been happy. Doesn't sound at all like their techs. Could be it was just a bad day for both of you. Unfortunately that happens sometimes. Hope you find a company you're happy with soon.
Don't you just hate it when .....sm
a dictator blobbers a word/phrase and the client claims something like "if you just listened to this 40 times in various speeds, very quiet conditions and through 2 different phone systems or PCs you should have been able to figure this out." Of course we all want to rebut with "and if your dictator wouldn't talk with his mouth full of his Wendy's hamburger while driving down the interstate with the convertible top open, and on a speaker phone we could hear him/her the first time without a problem!"
I don't hate MQ, but---
I don't like the decrease in my lines since starting on DQS either. It is not what it was promised to be. I am working a lot longer and harder now and I still cannot get the lines I used to on Medrite. I also wish they would be better about giving raises to those of us who are faithful employees and are always there for THEM. I have also been with them for over 8 years.
HATE IT, HATE IT, HATE IT!

no thanks, hate CNN too......LOL..nm

hate it
I hate when that happens...
you have my sympathies!
I hate that
I mean if they really want to talk to me why be as inconsiderate as to keep me waiting and take up my important time sitting there listening to nothing. I wait and wait so I can say for them not to call again. Sometimes they take forever to get the real live being on the line. Why would I buy something from someone who saw me as so unimportant as to keep me waiting like that.
Yep, I really like my job - it's the pay I hate :)
Happy  Day!!
I really hate that!
I remember, back in the old days, we used our common sense when dealing with numbers. We'd say "an 80-year-old man who has had cancer for five years, having undergone 12 radiation treatments." Anything under the number 10 would be spelled out, except for lists, etc.; those would be in numbers. Whose idea was it to change the rules of proper English, punctuation, and grammar? (Change is hard for me, I admit.)
I would hate it and have already had a job like that - sm
though they did not call you to ask why a report took "too" long in their eyes, but they monitored you closely. I did not like the feeling of "big brother watching". Tell management to try typing the report and see how long it takes them....sometimes 5 minute reports can take 30 minutes. I average 14-15 minutes an hour, so it would have probably taken me 20 minutes; 30 it is was a hard ESL or I had to look a lot of stuff up (which I have to do depending on which doctor I have, i.e. addresses, which slows me down tremendously). If it's a good job I'd go for it, and as you already know the doctors you should have no problem. You can always quit if you don't like it.
Does he hate you now for it?

Hate to say it...
But you may be going about it with the wrong attitude. Think about it as a lifestyle change, not a "diet", and you may have better success. And yes, keep the exercising up, that's a great plus no matter what!
Hate it!
When my youngest was 5 or so, the time changed at this time of year, I told him to go to bed (it was still quite light outside). He said, NO, It's not dark yet, I don't have to! I said yes you do the time changed. He said "Well, put it back!" I said I can't I didn't make that change. He said, "Well call the governor and make him fix it!"
I still laugh over that, but I agree wholeheartedly LOL.
HATE IT
NM
And don't you just hate it when they tell you to sm
schedule your doctor appointments for off work hours? Heck, I go 70 miles 4 times a year to see 2 physicians and not always on the same day. No way I can schedule these for "off work time". They are both booked solid for as long as 6 months in advance, so I have to take whatever I can get.
OT, but, does anyone hate sex?

I just HATE it when sm
my husband cuts the grass under my window when I am working. Granted, it is only about 20 minutes he is out there but it really peeves me. Oh well, I'll keep quiet about it. Otherwise, I'll have to do it myself. Really though, I am grateful I have him. It's just that sometimes....... 
Don't you hate it when ...
the doc dictates a mile-a-minute, but then answers his cell phone in the middle of the dictation and speaks completely and absolutely clearly and at a normal rate of speed!!!!!!!
Aaarrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh!
I Hate it.
It takes me so much longer to do a report. When I get "standard" reports, my productivity is great, but my VR or "edited" reports suck. Mostly because I hate doing it. I've been looking for a place that doesn't use it because it's really killing my paychecks.
I hate when that happens. Sorry for you. nm

What I really hate . . . .
A company contacted me last week about a job. I replied and said I would like to test. I was supposed to test today. I was supposed to E-mail the lady today about testing which I did early this a.m. I sat here all darn day long and I have heard nothing. I blew off my day off from my part-time gig to sit here and wait around for a test that never happened. These companies want work back in perfect form ASAP yet they cannot keep an appointment/promise! Ugh!
What I really hate . . .
I was hoping I was alone. I'm so sorry this has happened to you.
Hate to pay for something I can do
Guess I am cheap. But to me paying hundreds of dollars that can go into my pocket and especially since you are not bringing in any money if you don't have accounts to have someone do what I can do -- I just can't do it. Guess that is why I cannot pay someone to clean my house. Anyway I guess I also love the challenge of obtaining a new account. But good luck.
I HATE that.
I had to do that for one company I worked for and it was such a pain in the butt. I did ask for higher pay to offset the time it took. I also had a spread sheet set up to make it a little faster.
UGH..I hate it too!!! sm
I have a doctor (who does all voice recognition) who spells out ANYTHING with hypo or hyper. Drives me nuts having to correct it!
"The patient has hyper h-y-p e-r tension" He does it about 10 times in each report!!
HATE QA
I love QA but I have not been attacked yet. I hope I don't. I try very hard not to nick pick and everything I change I send the reference to where and why I did. Takes time. I am afraid my numbers are not as good as other QA. I hated MT in this company. QA was awful to me. I am hoping I can make a difference now. Keep your figures crossed. I did not know this site existed, not sure if I like it. I think I am better going forward and trying to keep positive until I get burned.....story of my life. Oh well. I think it is funny we all run around and try to be perfect when there is no such thing. haha. Take care.
I hate doing VR!!! sm
Switched companies six months ago to do VR rather than straight typing because I thought I would like it - WRONG! I am making anywhere from $150 to $300 less a month. Am I just bad at doing VR or are there other people who have been in the same boat as me?
