Lynn has great information. I "went digital" a while back
Posted By: Tuesday on 2006-01-15
In Reply to: Digital Recorders - question
with trying to use a digital system at my house that recorded the docs as they called in. But the phone lines were too expensive so I switched to FTP. I got a bit overwhelemd by the time I spent routing files (a bunch of different doctors and different subcontractors) and so I finally settled on a TASP, MetroScript.
So to answer your question, in my case with the TASP, my doc records all day with the digital recorder. At the end of the day he logs into my website (at MetroScript) and uploads the files. I can then log into the website and download the files whenever I want.
I travel quite a bit and I use a couple of different computers and so the Internet interface works really well for me. But everyone is different! Good luck!

Lynn already has my contact information when she posted this
because she has been emailing me all along threatening me.
Welcome back Lynn; of course! I remember you.
best wishes on your new, improved, undertaking of the field we love. You're gonna need a huge sense of humor, which you already possess. Have fun! and LaughLots!
Thank you for the great information!!
I really appreciate it!!
Thank you! This information is great! sm
I realize that I probably have been giving him mixed messages about going back and forth with pull-ups and underwear. I guess I will just cut the pull-ups out altogether and do what you suggested, timer, being constent and praise, praise, praise! Thank you so much!
That one looks great too! Thanks so much for the information everyone! nm

Great post with VERY useful information. nm

Great information Christine. Thanks.

Is it possible to do a system back-up (hard drive information) to a USB
zip drive? Have you done it? How do you figure how big of a zip drive is needed?Thanks.
Great information. Maybe you need a productivity forum?

Google is a great source of information
on Internet terminology and abbreviations. Try it. You'll be amazed at what you can learn for yourself.
I use Vance Digital. Jay is great to work with.

You all are such great support and full of useful information. nm

I would just supply one digital copy, either send the work back
via an FTP site or email attachment or whatever, or keep addending to a CD, but let them keep their own archives. And why can't they print when you deliver the CD or the work in digital format? I don't do any printing at all. Everything goes back digital and they keep their own copies. Once I bill for the month, everything gets deleted, as it should be under HIPAA.
Jan, it has been great exchanging information with you - thanks and I hope your ship comes in soon

Great! Glad you got it back. nm

Sabato was GREAT as JAGGER way back when
I do tapes and digital. And I was told if I'm not logged into the digital system, they assume I&
BUT she wants me logged into the system by 9:30 a.m. So I'm confused too. I've decided that I may come back to her and just say I'm not going to do the tapes anymore. I hate the tapes anyway. The voice quality is horrible, it fades in and out. It takes me twice as long to transcribe their tapes than the digital.
Uuummm, like Lynn????
:
Lynn - you are incorrect!!! It's a......sm
for example, my state never required a license if you worked at home on a computer with having no traffic to your home, until THEY CHANGED the law/rule.......
Best of luck to you Lynn. I have been
thinking of changing too but I have worked at home for so long I'm not sure I can do an outside job. I only have 5 more years until retirement. I hope I make.
congratulations lynn. I too am sm
getting out after 28 years. I am burned out at 50 with this profession and the way it has evolved in the last ten years.
I wish you well.
I think Lynn is probably pitching a fit....sm
because this is a lot of bad advertisement for Jester's Touch, which if she didn't pay Doris she deserves. This can severely hurt her business, and that is probably why she wants this off of here. MTs aren't the only ones who visit this forum. MTSO's do too and you never know who knows who her clients are and could contact them and let them look at this board and use it to their advantage to take clients away. You never know how others can use something like this to their advantage. Not paying people can be a severe blow to a business. Just my opinion.
Lynn, I think what the poster jln was saying
was that the way you know if a company is affiliated with India/outsourcing is that the ad will have many misspellings, not that your post did. :)
I feel your pain, Lynn sm
I can't afford a day off either, much less a whole week! Whew, I'd freak out. I wouldn't have any fun, though, cause I'd be so worried about money! Oh well, our day will come...I hope! Keep your chin up and know that you're not alone, if that helps any! 
I must therefore deduce that Lynn from Jester

Lynn, that is not true. The contract that you sent me is the very
same that Ms. Latta sent to me. Ms. Latta has not falsified anything. I am being neutral in this situation simply trying to get it resolved and that is all.
Hey Lynn, Shoot me an e-mail. I'd love to know
what Webmedx offered you!!! If you wouldn't mind sharing. 
So-long lynn and best of luck to you in your new endeavors.

Lynn, Administrator's email is on Contact page.
as far as proof that you paid this person. You shouldn't need someone to tell you what they need - if you have proof that you made the payments, then just send them and get your name cleared. As Patti stated above, the Labor Board's denial means nothing more than it doesn't handle IC situations.
Also, do you have proof that the IC has badmouthed other MTSOs as you claimed? If this happened to me and I knew I had paid all monies due, I'd do anything and everything to get the word out and I wouldn't wait for an invitation to do so. A word of caution, too: It might be a wise idea to not even post here at all and refrain from engaging in the back-and-forth. Just submit any proof to the administrator straight away. You might cause further damage to your reputation by posting something unprofessional in the heat of the moment. I'd like to give the benefit of the doubt and wait for the details from all sides, but the longer you wait to present yours, the worse it looks. Just an outside observation.
With short arms, I need chair with shallow seat, good back support and high back. Want arm rests

OK! I'm glad you're back down here. Now don't go back up there and read those evil posts ag
Okay? But I have to leave you now, sadly. Thousands of noble dictating doctors are anxiously awaiting my help with their "dictations"....They're all loading up on chips, drinking lots of soda so they can burp, and then have to go to the bathroom...You know the routine! Off I go to earn some pennies!! But, truly, I am thankful that I have a job! 
PS.. It apparently worked..I heard back and already submitted the paperwork back.
I'm not sure how many people they are hiring but you shouldn't stress too hard over it. Do the best you can.
Saw him on CMT show with John Fogarty. Great, great singer with a neat personality and drop dead
gorgeous without seeming to know it.
Great post. I swear by both Advantage and Frontline Plus-- both work great! - sm
I don't know about "natural" approaches for the house. I have always used flea bombs in the past before the miracle of Advantage and Frontline changed my life. Have not had a flea problem at all since I began using those products about 10 years ago, dose all the dogs religiously once a month with the Frontline Plus except in Dec.-Feb. to save a few bucks and because the ground is generally frozen by then and no fleas are scurring about. -- Hope you get flea free soon.
I would not do them back to back - I have done 2 and 3 jobs at the same time -- all PT - sm
It is possible to do of course but you will burn out fast. Now I do one almost FT (about 30 hours a week) and the other is about 8-10 hours a week-- I still get beat doing that and that is w/o set hours. I find that the older I get the harder it is to work late and I am only 40! But a mid afternoon 30-minute cat nap helps a lot in order to keep going on busy days.
How do you set your computer back 1 day. I messed something up and need to go back 1 day.

Thanks to all. Got some great feedback and ecouragement. This board is great.
My rant passed, ate a late lunch, now back to the trenches.
GREAT GREAT SHOW! I still think Ellen Pompeo
should have gotten the Emmy/Golden Globe whatever it was for the show. I like Sandra Ho, her character just needs more depth... Next week looks AWESOME!! Maybe there is still a chance for McDreamy!! First season DVD coming out with deleted scenes! Can't wait to get it & watch it!!
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! 
Sounds like he will do great then. Again, best wishes for great success!

That's great Patti. Thanks. Have a great time at the beach.

You should feel great as a transcriptionist if they think your work is that great!!!
It is not your fault they approached you. I think it would be a different storey if you were the one searching for the job to take away from a company. They obviously want to get rid of the company and if you didn't take the job they would probably ask someone else. You should enjoy the better position and not feel guilty!!
Great post -great job of wording your answer! (sm)
Original poster - I completely agree with this answer, especially the part about finding yourself and using all that you have learned intellectually and connecting that to something that you will also enjoy with your heart!! You have so many wonderful options for your future - much more than many of us.
IT - great program, great support system. nm

Thanks for all the great advice! You guys are great!

Thank you. I appreciate the information ...
sounds like a way to reward those whose production and quality are at the top.
Thanks.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
but, with a much better company and I smell management. Take that and smoke it.
Perhaps this information might help:
If you would post a clear statement of the change that is happening and what its expected results will be BEFORE you make such changes, then it wouldn't be viewed so suspiciously.
rec'd no such information
and my count has been 'below production' different times and my benefits didn't change. My supe told me way back when that only if a person "consistently" didn't make production would it affect their benefits.
Where did you get your information? nm.
nm.
information
i mentioned something to my supervisor a couple of weeks ago that I "heard" that MQ was offering extra on the line rates to new hires, which upset me, and of course, her response was you can't trust what you hear or see and I know that, but it seems like what i'm seeing on this website seems to be more reliable in some respects than what i get from MQ and like you said, that's really sad. I'm not signed up for IPay so i can't check to see if there's anything there -- guess i could check my bank to see if there's more there.
