They are looking for an Ortho QA Editor and after training they are paying $11.50 an hour? $11.50 an hour? $11.50 an hour? Why not just work in fast food?

They must, just saw an ad on the job seeker board for it, but
its too bad they don't offer their current employees an opportunity to learn it, or at least announce the job internally if someone is interested. This is the WORST company for any kind of promotion and absolutely no communication with its employees. Once you are put on a platform or on an account you will die there cuz they won't let you move. Team leaders suck, too.
Job Seeker's Board.....
Radiologist Transcriptionist Needed. Thanks.
They have an ad on the Job Seeker's Board here. sm
just look to the left of your screen towards the top and click on "job seeker's board". Scroll down and you will see an ad for WMX ER work. Good company, good bennies, good people, been with them 5 years.
Ignore the grumpies. I don't like the search function here either. To get more current stuff you can click on the "related" link in blue on each message or go to the top of the last few current pages of the Main board or the Company board. Do Ctrl + F to bring up the search box . Good luck.
There are some on the Job seeker's board sm
but many are old and quite a few are base in India
There are some on the job seeker board.
I just went up from MT to QA about 3 yrs ago.
That is the red note on the job seeker's board.

Did anyone see the posting on the job seeker's board with
 the ortho emphysis?  
Check out Job Seeker's Board
Sheri...does that mean that the job seeker's board will have sm...
companies posting jobs that off-shore transcription? I am trying to find an office that does not off shore due to the difficulty of the reports left over for the US MT, so I need to be careful if that is the case. Thank you!
should have read except on job seeker board
except solicitations on Job Seeker boards here for MT/coding etc.
Job seeker's board question please
What happened to all the jobs in the "job bank"? There's only one in there.
Also if you open the adds up and click on "for information" it goes to the info for that one companythat has the add, not even the right company.
jobs on seeker board
I am wondering, are most of the jobs at http://forum.mtstars.com/seeker/ for at-home positions? As opposed to working on site?
Thanks.
The job seeker's board has a lot of local jobs
advertised all over the country. I don't see her making that kind of money as a home-based MT, but she would not have travel expenses, etc. Good luck.
I believe they are posted on "Job Seeker's Board"

CHS Acct Mgr posting on job seeker's board
I have a sneaking suspicion that this is Ascend. If anyone finds out what company this is, please let us know!
There's a link to post resumes on the Job Seeker's board. nm

I agree, you need to a lot of research. I would start with the job seeker's board and see who S
is advertising and research the companies that seem to have the best to offer and find out if they truly are the ones with the best to offer. In this business, there are a lot more considerations when looking for a job than just cents per line.
Good Luck!
Post about Companys on the Company board, post job ads on the Job Seeker board

It really wasn't hidden so much. Normal board.

You can replace the 2007 Normal.dotm with your old normal.dot file. sm
Open the old normal.dot in Word and save as the new file format.
The easy way is to load the oldest version first and then upgrade.
I'm completely normal and met my normal husband online. sm
I also met casual dates online (read: real social dates, NOT sex hookups), and all were completely normal. I wasn't meeting who I wanted to meet in the other traditional ways (church, through friends, at work, etc) so I looked online and found someone whose sense of humor shined through in his writing, and that is who I eventually married after 2+ years of traditional dating. We are both college grads, gainfully employed, financially stable, non-perverted, normal people. BUT, I did have to sort through a LOT of personal ads, as there are certainly plenty of oddballs out there, as well, just like in the outside world. :-)
normal? Normal means you have a.....S/M
There is no *normal* in this life..........
There ARE conformists and nonconformists but normal doesn't exist. Sorry.
You must have a preconceived idea of what *sanity* is, eh? *lol*
ER work seeker
I am seeking IC status also typing ERs.
Seems like since I've switched to DQS, production has gone down. Not able to use normals like before on Word... it's frustrating.
Thanks!
Job seeker says "premium" pay for ESL - that's
NM
If you look under job seeker's on the left
lots of posts. Don't know why you need a job bank AND those posts.
Keystrokes has an ad on the job seeker's
board. It pays 8 cpl. You should check it out. I'm not sure if they do voice recognition, but if you can avoid those companies that do, you'll make better wages on straight transcription. Just send your resume to some of the companies that are advertising and see what pans out. Decide a rate for yourself and don't accept anything lower than that. Decide if you want employee status or IC/statutory. 
so true, but she could post on Job Seeker's
Board for a job not yet really available like some MTSOs do, and then give you the runaround when nothing is available. It's happened to me a couple times, now I'm suspicious about that.
I must be a bitter MT..Check out the ad on job seeker's
Obviously Indian-based, but they want to train you to be an MT..check this part out..
Transcription is fun for the right person as it allows you to write and if you love to write, then it is an enjoyable career. Some people who do not like writing because they are not creative still enjoy this medical online profession. Even people who hate writing like this profession because it allows for working at home on a flexible schedule.
OKAY.. what planet are they from..Since when is transcription fun LOL...and I'm sure glad it lets me write whatever I want, because I just love to write..LOL and I get to use my creative ability also to write whatever I like. People who hate MT-ing just do because they hate to write and are not creative LOL. I'm sorry but this just cracked me up. I've thought a lot of things about transcription but FUN was never one of them. Lucky for me though, even though I don't like it, I get to stay at home and have a really flexible schedule..NOT.. lol...
5000 lines per day on job seeker's ...
You gotta be kidding, some say it was on before and required more than one person but why submit it as if it were a "job" offered to one? Perhaps I am "slow."

Not normal
Actually, I love my company. It's just that every year after the 4th it seems to slow down for a short time. That's all. I have been with many companies that this has happened at, small and large. This is the best company and best pay that I've had.
No I get normal...
That must be a different account they have many accounts I do a VA account
8-10 u/l is normal nm
.
Yes - CT and MRI, all normal. Dx as

It's normal, like my mom used to say. . . sm
"In order to remember something new, I have to forget something old."
Truth is, you may be able to remember the pair of ice skates you got for Christmas when you were six, but you don't remember to buy milk for 2 days in a row.
My mom always said that her "brain was full of useless information."
Is this really normal?
I've been with my current national for a year now, and I'm burnt out. I do acute care work, struggle with lots of ESLs, and work on several different accounts. For the past 6 months or so, work has been very low on my primary, and I bounce around from account to account, and I only work part-time. I hate that. I wish I had a primary that kept me busy and only in rare instances would I have to work on my secondary or tertiary and so on. Instead, I may work on 4 different accounts in one day just to get in 500 lines, and of course it takes me longer to do that on accounts other than my primary because those accounts have a lot more doctors. Getting the same ones isn't a daily occurrence, and if you do, they're the difficult dictators. Is this normal? It's hard for me to shop around and look for a better national to work for because I don't have high-speed internet access, and some not only want high-speed access, but they also are very specific about what type you need to work for them. I feel stuck, but I am grateful to have a job and that it's not flipping burgers or working in retail. Been there, done that....in my youth.
it can be normal, but what is normal?
and it is definitely frustrating, being bounced around. It would slow anybody way down. As far as burn-out -- take more or longer breaks maybe. Exercise inbetween -- walks do wonders for state of mind...maybe try talking to your supe, to see if you could be put on a primary that would have enough work to keep you on IT. Sometimes changing your work hours improves the work flow too, ie, evening shift, weekends... hang in there, as my mom used to say, "the only thing constant is change".
anyone know how to add a normal
tyty!
You are A-OK and quite normal, actually.
You know, it took me at least 2 years to realize there is nothing wrong with me, as I started to wonder what you are wondering now. I spent 2 years blaming myself, but realized it is just part of getting older. I think it is actually a good thing, because we are not losing focus at all, rather I believe we are probably concentrating more on quality. I know before even in midcareer I did not have much of a tolerance for even commas, I cared about the line count. Now, I actually care about the commas, and the patient care. Plus, I care about my family, my mental well being, as well as the bills. I used to put the bills first and the patient second, and I was single. So, now I accept who I am, what stage of life I am in. The line count seems to be coming back. For the last couple of years when I felt burnt out and blamed myself, I could not do anything to get that line count up, more I blamed myself, more the line count went down. Now, I accept that I have to treat this job differently, accept who I am, and although I won't probably ever get 3K lines a day, and I am happy even half of that, seems like life is easier.
You are quite welcome, and you are not losing your mind. I just hope you don't blame yourself and celebrate your life and your maturity! Good luck :)
Normal sm
Congratulations, you have reached the Twilight Zone. It is normal for those of us who do it, to not remember typing things up and say, "Wow, that's interesting." I think it's normal, anyone else have a humble opinion?
Is this normal pay?
Where in the heck can you make $11.50 in fast food?
That sounded all normal to me. And SM
remember that the day after Christmas there won't be much work anywhere.
If being gay was normal, the population would die out soon
The one thing nobody has mentioned is that gays cannot reproduce-- they have to recruit, so if it was a normal thing, they, too, would be able to reproduce. Whatever your thoughts and feelings, you will have to answer for your lifestyle someday---.
These are all normal things for me as well.
If I were you, I'd change what I'm doing immediately to what she is requesting as these adhere to all MT rules that I am aware of.
What is your average TAT for being an IC. Is this normal....
I am just wondering what is the average TAT for some of you that are independent contractors. I have an account that has a very short TAT and it is clinic work. I have an average TAT of like 6-7 hours. If it is not turned in at that exact time, I get an email saying that the work needs to be sent over. Is that normal? Also I haven't gotten a raise in three years. I get about 6.5 cents per gross line (no matter now much or little is on the line). I have been with this company for five years. I just need some advise here. I am told by my husband constantly that I need to just completely move on, but I like the work because it is easy.
How much support is normal?
The company I am with is pushing hard for MTs to go from clinic and ER notes to acute care. After 4 years, I feel like I am ready for this but this company offers extremely little in the way of samples, maybe 2 or 3 on some of the toughest authors; no way to review reports that have been sent for editing, and no way to communicate with others working in your accounts.
I have the basic format of the work down but the authors can be very tough to learn with no feeback. There also does not seem to be any kind of raise involved, so if I can do 250 LPH doing clinic notes why struggle through that with a company that does not seem real inclined to help? For those who do acute care, do you prefer it or do you do it for more money?
RE: How much support is normal?
Do you not want to increase your knowledge/transcription skills? Do you not want to increase your employability? A good Transcriptionist seeks to broaden their base of knowledge and experience in all medical specialities, not just a few. It is not all about money, providing a service (ultimately to the patient) is one of my impressions of being a "good/great" transciptionist.
Normal interruptions?
I have that much in about 2 hours because I am not tending house, watching after a 4 year old, cooking dinner, washing, have the phone on answer so I don't have problems with "normal" interruptions.
It is normal to have to purchase your own
provide the PC. Some will provide the foot pedal if you do not have what is required. Some companies give you the option of renting their equipment. It all depends on the company, but yes you will have to have your own resource books.
