No, it means you will have the option of offering it

to the next highest bidder if the original high bidder does not pay. Usually you will just leave it there until item is paid for and shipped. It's really just in case the first deal doesn't go through.

That means you didn't win the auction, but the seller is offering
the item to you anyway. Either the winning bidder backed out, the seller had a duplicate item, or they lowered their reserve price.
It means one MTSO offering to pay you 3, 4 or 5 cents/line less for the same work you do at another!
it's spelled right. Exo means outside and you know what phrenic means. nm

That's my question too. There you are, offering to help, SM
and here I am offering to help, and what happens? We're called liars. I always just get so stirred up by this that it makes me want to holler.
What possible good feeling could a person get from making another person feel bad? NONE!
What possible good feeling could you get for helping somebody increase her earnings? A BUNCH!
But nobody wants the help, nobody wants to know how you produce, they just want to whine.
one would think offering expertise and guidance
You'd be not only happy, but FLATTERED to be asked questions. Newbies should be admired for asking questions and encouraged to do so, rather than putting whatever they want. There are times when you search, and search and search, not finding, but having two sets ears especially one with more experience is always better than one set. Stop being grumpy already. geez.
About offering direct deposit.
Klaar is getting ready to offer direct deposit (again). Oh boy, gotta wonder if they formerly offered it, then canceled it, and are ready to offer it again (soon).
Look at all the jobs out there NOT offering 10 or even 9 cpl. For the majority of us, it

I know, I was just offering an opinion on the other side...
Besides work, I have some other things going on in my life that cause it to pile up sometimes, although I swear I'm not lazy, just overwhelmed lately. I'm a stickler about the floors though.

Offering E-Signature to a Client
Hi,
Does anyone know about offernig E-Signature to a client? Is there a way to do it easily, on your own -- I mean, instead of signing up with a big company like Vianeta or Bayscribe to handle all of the reports you type and want to send to a client.
Or... If that's the only way to go - through a big company - are there any big companies that are economical if you just have 1-2 doctor clients? I know some of those companies charge like $5,000 as a set up fee. Thank you.
Dave
I mean, I'm sure you can do it
If offering that as bonus, you can bet it is pain

Depends on who is offering that. I'm pretty sure I know who.
Does it start with a T? If so, I'd have to say turn it out unless you want to get stuck with the crappiest accounts. Why do you think they pay better than most for Escription? If you do have work that hasn't gone to India, it will be nothing but the rotten ESL accounts. Think hard about this one
No worse than the ads offering $500-1000...sm
a week at home, no experience, stuffing envelopes, addressing mail, etc, etc, at home, and once you anwer them they want you to send in money up front.

Dell offering support based in N. America
By Peter Whoriskey
Washington Post Staff Writer Thursday, December 11, 2008; Page D01
If you prefer a customer service agent who speaks "American," then computer maker Dell has a deal for you.
Catering to consumers put off by the accents of Bangalore, Manila and other call-center hubs around the globe, Dell will guarantee -- for a price -- that the person who picks up the phone on a support call will be, as company ads mention in bold text, "based in North America."
The Your Tech Team service, with agents in the United States, costs $12.95 a month for customers with a Dell account, or $99 a year for people who buy a new computer. It also promises that wait times will average two minutes or less. Without the upgrade, a customer is likely to get technical help from someone in India, the Philippines or the other places where Dell has operators.
By charging customers extra for a North American voice, Dell's program represents a novel strategy for easing the strains of globalization while maintaining profit, industry officials said.
Occasionally, "we've heard from customers that it's hard to understand a particular accent and that they couldn't understand the instructions they were getting," said Dell spokesman Bob Kaufman. "This illustrates Dell's commitment to customer choice."

Medicare is offering free installation of EMR to physicians and hospitals.
http://www.medscape.com/px/instantpollservlet/result?PollID=1502
On this new MQ rewards plan what exactly is it offering statutory employees and I suppose that that
is going to be the end of our quarterly bonus. My concern still is if there is no work how do you get any incentive if they lower the base rate. Sounds like employees will have a larger window to get their work done which means we all will be scrambling around for work at all hours.
Kaiser switching to EMR and to be offering retrival of your medical records online. sm

SBC has an option ...
called Call Trace. You pay for it only when you activate it. When an offending call comes in, you hang up and then dial a keycode. That runs a trace. It is a legal trace and you can obtain the information from SBC who will send it to the authorities. You have to acknowledge that you will press charges if there is enough evidence.
At the least, I would drop that cell phone number immediately and notify your carrier of the harassment.
P.S. We all would probably say neither, but it isn't an option. ;-)

possible other option
I live in Michigan and also live in the sticks. I thought I had exhausted all possibilities until someone told me you can get a (sorry I do not know the technical name) card for your lap top that has an internal antena. You get them through Sprint, Cigular, and I think a couple of others have it. I have Nextel cell phone but cannot get good service unless I go down my driveway to the road (then it is not that great either). Sprint (nextel and sprint are not merged completely yet) is running a deal where you can get this card for free for 14 days to see if it works. The sales person told me you would still have high speed internet even if you could not get good phone service. You then would pay a monthly fee for unlimited access no matter where you go with your lap top. I am ordering today, and if it works, I will try a home net work to get my other PC on board (which I am also told you can get an external card like above for a PC also). If anyone out there already has this or knows more about it-PLEASE tell me. Dial-up jobs are getting fewer and farther between.
first option b, then if still not
happy go higher up than manager, if that's an option, and if it's not, go the the bbb
There may be another option
All I have ever had available to me is dial-up where I have lived over the years. However, I personally have no problem working on Emdat's InScribe platform. It may take a minute or two for the first job to download but then I always have two waiting and when I upload one job another one downloads, so there is always dictation waiting for me. However, I have a laptop now and I have noted with having more RAM (double what my PC has), everything works faster!
Also, my laptop came with the new ExpressCard slot and I plan to get that. It works basically like a cell phone and in my area unlimited Internet for it will be $79.99/month but well worth it to me if things are a little faster AND I can use my laptop in a lot of places that I travel (particularly in the summer camping), IF a signal/connection is available to me. I hope to be trying this out within the next month or so, as soon as the ExpressCards arrive at Verizon or Sprint.
If a laptop is a possibility for you, then that may be your way around dial-up. My satellite is not reliable enough and plus too costly I feel for Internet. Of course, you have to make sure that the laptop card will work with the platform the company uses that you work for/plan to work for. Emdat told me it would with their platform.
Of course, I first have to see what type of signal I get at home with the ExpressCard! :) We get "all the bars" on our personal cell phones (and actually have a tower within walking distance of our house out in the boonies-lol) so I don't think it should be a problem.
HTH some. :)
No that is not an option...sm
They told us if we fixed it up just to sell it then we would have to split it 50/50 with my husband's sister - even though she would not be putting any money or any effort into it anyhow. A few people have looked at this house when they were trying to sell it for $5k - yes just $5k - but noone would buy it. It is horrible shape. When we told his dad yesterday, before the fight between ourselves, that we were not taking it - his snide remark was "That's just more money in my pocket." You cannot win with his parents involved. I know they are his parents and I respect that and try to hold my tongue. Eventually his parents will lead to our divorce and that is what saddens me the most.
Another option...
Wristies work well, too. They're just fleece gloves with the fingers cut out, so they don't offer a lot of support, but they sure keep your hands/wrists warm. I got mine from plowandhearth.com.
there is another option
When I sold my house...I went with a flat fee company. I paid a flat fee for them to list my house on the MLS, put up a sign and give me a lock box, help me price the house right, and go over any offers.......
The flat fee was considerably less then what a commission would have been. She was a licensed agent with a lot of knowledge.
I was responsible for showing the house. Getting the inspection and some other miscellaneous paperwork and an agent usually does.
I think there is a national chain called Help-U-Sell (too expensive for me), but there are sometimes local small companies that do this as well.
Option 2
I don't want to go back to hourly.
Another option would be to
receipt to the practice getting your money back faster than writing it off at the end of the year, but I just figure that ink and paper are part of my expenses. That is a small price to pay as opposed to what you'd spend to look for a new account.
Furthermore, if this office is looking to slash, it may get worse for this IC in that she may lose the account regardless as the practice could go paperless with an online company for probably half of the cost they pay her.
Another option
You could look into Ameriplan's discount health and/or dental plans.
I'm an IC with no insurance and use the dental plus plan (which includes vision, Rx and chiropractic). I pay $14.95 a month for the plan and save $84 a month on my two monthly prescriptions.
Some people prefer insurance to discount plans, and it's up to the individual and their preferences on whether or not a discount health plan would work for them.
Depending on the plan, the monthly cost ranges from $14.95 a month to $59.95 a month. With these plans, you save up to 80% on all dental and medical fees.
You can get an idea of what providers are in your area and their fees by going to:
http://providersearch.ameriplanusa.com/
If you want more info, here's a website:
http://www.mybenefitsplus.com/mkj
Again, it's a discount plan and not insurance, and some people would prefer actual insurance, but I'm personally happy with them because the monthly cost is cheap and I get what I need. You can email me if you want more info (I'm an MT but also a rep for Ameriplan on the side) :)
Well she has been given that option...sm
but has heard that they run out of work a lot at Spheris and offshore most of the good work. Someone she knows works there and is going broke. This person who works at Spheris said one day she only got to work 2 hours and she is supposed to be full time. My friend has the problem that she makes $46,000 a year, and her budget is set to that amount. If she doesn't make that she said she can't pay her bills. She doesn't think she can make close to $50,000 at Spheris. There aren't many places you can make that kind of money.
Thanks. Vonage may be my only option around

Onesuite is an option with MDI? - sm
I used it when I started working for them, but didn't know I would continue using it?
DNS gives you the option of attaching it to the
word processor you are using; however, in your case, if you are working through a network (I'm assuming it is a stripped version of Word?), it may not attach due to restrictions placed on it by your company. I may be wrong, you could try it. I would plan on spending 16 hours of training per physician to get it up to a point that would benefit you. Yes, that is a huge investment on your part. I'm not trying to be negative but if you are a slow typist, how computer saavy are you? Unless you really know how operating systems work, you could end up being very frustrated. Also you would need to train DNS to recognize all the medical terminology in your spell check unless you buy their terminology module (which is very limited).
IMHO, you would be better off getting an abbreviation system as the learning curve is much less and it would be more portable if you changed jobs. If you are a slow typist, an abbreviation/expansion program is invaluable to improving your line count. I have used Dragon on my own computer when I did not work through someone's platform and it really worked well for me but I had help from BG and a very good computer skills knowledge base.

Possible Option for Acne
I always see the commercial for Proactiv solution on television, maybe you may want to give that a try. The commercial was originally hosted by Vanessa Williams.
Offshoring is still an option
I am working in an offshore MT company and our US client is happy with the result of our transcription work. To those against offshoring, do not be greedy. Have the heart to share! ... PLEASE check your spelling, it's "REQUEST" not "REQUIST."
Dial up is my only option
Believe me, if I could get cable or DSL I would. There is a rumor that a wireless internet tower will be going up in a few months. I have also considered satelite. I will just have to see how my companies platform works with dial up and then I will probably get satelite or the wireless because it will be cheaper, but it won't be here for another few months if it is approved by the county.
Thanks
INMT
Dial-up is my only option too
I'm in the same boat but I refused to go onto DQS/DEP after a disastrous experience trying to move over in 2004 - using dial-up. Some MTs have been able to make it work, I was not. It was a production nightmare. I was told by techs very clearly that DQS/DEP is not designed for dial-up and requires broad band (high speed) to be efficient. The company is keeping some dial-up accounts for those of us who this is our only option. I posted this before not long ago - there are plenty of accounts that ARE going to DEP/DQS and that is company goal (to have all accounts on DEP) but there are accounts being kept for dial-up only MTs. Check with your supervisor. My current dial-up account is moving over to DEP next month. I will have to transfer to another office in order to go to another dial-up account (that will NOT be moving over to DEP). I don't know the office because... I have a PS who does not respond to emails and phone calls, so I'm working on that aspect... Good luck.
Save as option
I do not use Word, but is there a save as option? From there it may give you options as to what type of file to save as. I think if you choose something like a text file, it may get rid of formatting, but not sure.
Do you have an option on your computer
of restoring back to a certain date? I used to use this all the time. You choose a date back when you know the file was working and it restores your system to that point.
A very low cost option without having to
spend a lot of money on hand held units is EZ-Voice. We offer a toll free call in solution for 9 cents per minute REGARDLESS of how many or how few minutes you need per month. We also offer FTP server space. Click on the link below to learn more...
This is actually the option of the employer. Some
want the name in there and it is there responsibility to redact the report should information need to be released. It is not our responsibility as a Transcriptionist to make this determination. Always check with the "boss" for clarification on this.
Okay, thanks, really need a slider option here

QA position better option?
I know this was discussed to some degree recenty, but I can't seem to find the posts now.
For someone having trouble making line counts, is a QA position a better option?
What is the pay like, and are there any quotas? What all (typically) comes with this type of position? It would seem that it might be very stressful as far as all the blanks left due to horrible dictators and such.
Due to various circumstances, my MT position is very stressful and nonlucrative right now. I really need a mental and financial break of some sort before I crack, and a QA position might be an option.
Information and advice greatly appreciated! ![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/cheers.gif)
A really good option...sm
if you can afford it ~ and I know it can get expensive ~ is have the massage first and then an adjustment. I used to work in a chiropractor's office and she has a massage therapist right in the office and lots of people would see the massage therapist first and then have their adjustment. I did that, too, a few times and it really makes the adjustment easier because the muscles are all relaxes.
I see my chiropractor every 2 weeks since I started working full time. I feel so much better after an adjustment. And she is a Palmer graduate as well.
Nope. We were given the option of
telling the court how we felt, but there is nothing anyone can do about it now.
