Study and find out what type of profile you may fit under and act accordingly. Quiet low-key people have won and I think they had the ability to read other people (Sandra and the last winner). Then there are the born leaders who form an allegiance with groupies who trust them (Rob). Just see where you fit personality wise and physically and plan ahead.

Gross physical line??
From what I have been told, a gross physical line is anything typed on a line, regardless if it's one letter or 65. My question is ... would 8 cpl on a gross physical line for acute care be good pay? How about 7 cpl on a gross physical line for emergency room reports? Thanks
HEADERS....as in what? The things like HISTORY AND PHYSICAL headings?
or the heading at the top of the page that we don't type?
and do you find it a little offputting that they can't put in writing that they pay for spaces? it makes me think all is not kosher.
Physical um um um Thrappy for physical therapy!

Bigger puzzles?
Have you seen the books with the huge grafts? I have not tried these yet.
i think it is incredibly gross. personal hygiene commercials are just gross anyway.
this one is stupid and gross.
I have tried WW but they had me eating more than i normally do
I ended up putting on weight instead of losing. I ate strictly their food which is totally expensive. I had another grocery bill aside from my family's. I could not stay with them.
They say if you eat 1300 calories that you will lose even without exercise. Bull. you have to work those calories off if you eat them to lose weight.
Horrible experience. I had lost 20 pounds on my own, but then gained 10 back from WW. I am disgusted with them.
I would be too after eating that! LOL

You would have to do a lot of hat-eating ...
... I believe. What in the world makes you think you have the monopoly on written and spoken English? If it wasn't so sad that you actually really believe that, it would be laughable.
Yes, but, when they are eating something
I often wonder what it is!!! For many years I was disgusted at these lack of manners. Then, for some reason, my rich inner life and imagination kicked in. The other day, a doc may have been eating a sandwich, I wonder what kind? Chips, I want some too! Crunch, crackle, etc. It sounds good. Whatever it is I wanted to know right then what it was and I wondered why I was not asked by the nurse if I wanted take out too LOL. (Partially sarcastic post, but sometimes true, I do get hungry and wonder what tastes so good...)
Doc eating
Okay, I am instantly angry because, not only am I sitting here editing VR which is incompetent, but I have to listen to a know-it-all woman doc chomping salad in my ear. Poof Im gone. How rude and inconsiderate can they be?
I would rather have the eating
and even that gross snot sucking, throat clearing thingy...than to have to listen to 3000 seconds of hold music. They graduated medical school, why can they not figure out the dictation equipment?
healthy eating
 What are the healthiest fruits and veggies to eat? I know raw veggies are supposed to be better for you too and that frozen is better than canned. Any other advice? Thanks.
It's like my mom used to say about eating vegetables:
;)
Chinese, especially when eating something. nm

Chewing gum/eating
One Russian psychiatrist actually ate an entire apple while dictating, and her accent could hardly be understand to begin with. We're talking right off the boat.
I particularly like someone eating an item wrapped in paper, because then you get both the chomping and the crackling.
And gum chewers (of which I've had several) who slurp, smack and actually crack the gum into the phone.
see what I mean? LOL ... physical not physician...

physical lines
If you are on DQS,the physical line (the line you see) in the text is not the 65-character line you are paid by. And the number of characters in that line can vary depending on how high/low you have your text zoom (smaller font would be more characters on a line and fewer with large font).
Your lines are calculated by dividing the amount of characters in a report by 65. It has nothing to do with the "line" you see on the report.
The best way to be sure DQS is counting your lines correctly is to import a report into a word processing program that counts characters, divide that amount by 65, and see if it matches your DQS count. I've done this and it is correct including spaces and the red headers.
Hope this is what you were asking and hope this helps :)
Did you get physical address??
Did you get the name of her company and the physical address? Phone number? There is a lesson to be learned here -- you still need to get all of this info in case something like this happens again. Unless you have a physical address you cannot send a demand letter with return receipt or serve her with papers or anything. Hopefully you do have that and can send her a written certified letter demanind payment within 10 days. Then onto small claims court. But none of this is possible without a physical address. Good luck. If you have her full name or business name and city -- you might be able to do a search to find a phone number. Did her check to you have a phone number on it? I always take a copy of the front of checks at least the first one so that I have their account number, etc. Also shows payment. Let us know how it comes out.
Physical Therapy
I have a physical therapist interested in me doing his transcription. It is a small office, they only work about 3 days a week, and I was wondering what to charge him per line? I currently work for an eye dr. making .11 a line and a service for .09. I may have to travel once a week to pick up tapes?(hope not) Any feedback is appreciated.
lots of water before eating
I haven't tried this myself, but I recently read an article about two very overweight men who lost tons of weight (not quickly, but gradually). Both exercised every day, starting off with very little and gradually working it up, and one of them said he also drank something like a liter of water before each meal, which filled up his stomach so he got full fast and it really helped him cut back on how much he was eating. I thought it sounded logical.
Also, eating like a poor person
is not always a bad thing. I do need to lose some weight. :0)
Never said she was big...maybe it is stress, not on an eating schedule, whatever.
Not that she needed to at all; she just did! Sorry!
I'd rather have the eating than the snot sucking
That just grosses me out so badly. Blow your nose for cryin' out loud!
What?! You are WRONG? Physical Therapy - more than that.
Pharmacy - WAAAAY more than that. In fact, I don't think ANY of those pay $12 to $18 an hour. You really should open your eyes and look around.
DH would be outpatient, and then physical therapy.
He has decided not to have surgery, at least not now. He would be out of work 3 weeks without short-term disability and only 1 week of sick pay, plus he says we can't afford surgery. While that is true, if you need it, you need it. I think he's as much scared as anything. The only surgery he has ever had was a vasectomy under a local and he refuses to take anything stronger than Tylenol. He isn't hurting now, no swelling, etc. so it isn't like he is in daily pain. I've tried to talk him into the surgery because we've met our deductibles and while it isn't that much we would have to start over with that, but I can't make him do it.
Physical Therapy Transcripiton
Hello! I'm looking for any of you that are experienced as Physical Therapy transcriptionists. Can anyone give me a head's up about transcribing in this specialty? I've done psychiatric for the past five years and am pretty sure I'll get this position I've applied for at a local clinic. Any support, resources, etc. would be fantastic!
Thanks in advance to all,
Terry
yearly physical (joke)
I went to the doctor for my yearly physical. The nurse starts with certain basics.
How much do you weigh?" she asks.
"115," I say. The nurse puts me on the scale. It turns out my weight is 140.
The nurse asks, "Your height?" "5 foot 8," I say.
The nurse checks and sees that I only measure 5' 5".
She then takes my blood pressure and tells me it is very high.
"Of course it's high!" I scream, "When I came in here I was tall and slender! Now I'm short and fat!"
She put me on Prozac
Have you considered Physical Therapy?
Or occupational therapy? There is a great need for it, it helps people, and you generally don't kill anyone (grin). While it takes a master's degree to be a physical therapist, the assistant is a 2-year degree.
I have an application in to the physical therapy program at my university, and I'm a little nervous because I'll be turning 50 my next birthday. On the plus side, I won't have children surreptitiously sticking the cat into a Ziplock bag while I'm trying to study this time.
Need some physical therapy websites
Just got a call for transcription for 2 physical medicine doctors and 5 physical therapist and they want me there tomorrow. I'm looking for some websites for terminology/word list/samples that I can review. Thanks. Wish me luck. This is a temp to hire position both onsite and at home. Sounds good to me.
Physical therapy website
Have been trying to find a good PT website. I Googled and did not find what I was looking for, which is a site that lists tests, like "cat and camel" and so forth.The sites I have found are not user friendly.
So while Yuck's mother was eating diarrhea...

So none of you holy rollers are eating on Easter

GUILTY!!! Im a holy roller but I will definitely be eating too!!!!!
and what he did for all of US
Teenage eating disorders question...sm
Hello,
I'm convinced that my stepdaughter is developing an eating disorder but am having a hard time convincing my husband of the same. The 15-year-old girl has lost I think at least 30 pounds in the past few weeks and refuses to eat more than a few bites and wants to just drink prune juice to help her poop. She won't listen to me that you have to eat in order to have something to poop and is obsessed that she's not pooping every day but also says she's not going to eat.
She was previously overweight but now is what I think is a weight that she looks good. I'm concerned that she's going to end up ill if she doesn't start eating consistently. My husband seems to think this is just a fad she's going through.
Any ideas, suggestions, etc?
I would do research on eating disorders and get some facts.
and not in an accusing way. Also Tyra, Oprah, Dr. Phil, they all have had and will continue to have shows on this issue. If you catch one, tape it and watch it with your husband and then get her to watch it. She may have a low self-esteem from being overweight and needs some encouragement and love. Spend time with her and show interest in things she is interested. I am sure Dr. Phil's web site addresses this issue and gives advice. Is her mother in the picture, and can the two of you talk? If so, I would talk to her. You need everybody on the same page IMO.
Good Luck
Eating their lunch/dinner while dictating
I have a doctor from Croatia who is hard enough to understand with his "ah" and 'um" but when he's crunching carrots in the middle of it? Forget it. 
You and your kids need to get out, permanently, BEFORE he gets physical from the drinking. nm

Walking will not only improve your physical health
but probably your mental health too. You'll get fresh air, take time to smell the roses, meet your neighbors, etc.
Unfortunately I live in the county and we are 8+ miles from anything.
Did he have blood work w/his job physical? Maybe they missed something. nm

Please excuse my typo above - physical therapy

Any kind of intimacy emotional or physical
is being unfaithful. Put your effort into your best friend, who should be your mate, otherwise, what is the point? If you put your effort into someone else, of course you would be close.
Honestly, your heart knows what is right and wrong. Listen to it. Respect your relationships or expect to be disrespected yourself.
Physical therapy format needed...
I just started a new account which is typed in a form in Word. It is not very efficient. Can anyone suggest where I can find a basic format for transcribing physical therapy evaluations.
Thanks
Physical fitness exams DO NOT require
breast exams. We are required to have them for school before certain grades in our state, and never do they do breast or GYN exams on kids.
I just looked at the physical form online...
There is nothing on it about a breast exam, sorry. I live in PA, too. My daughter got her permit a couple of years ago and she did not have a breast exam. (I'm still with you on the Gardasil, though!)
IF IT'S THE PHYSICAL STRAINS YOU'RE CONCERNED ABOUT...SM
How many waitresses do you see in their 60s and early 70s doing a job that would rival any nursing job as far as physical strai?. You might want to look on the NURSING BOARD, where they have students 58-59 y/o just starting nursing school; I'm among them, even though I have prior nursing education and need to finish up a few months/years.
If you think a full-fledged RN program might be too much to carry at this point, have you considered an LPN course for 12 months FT or 18 months PT study? LPNs make a fair salary, even as newbies ... beats this MT "indentured servitude".
I heard you get lung cancer by eating animals.

My 3 sons are eating me outta house and home too! :) NM
d
Yep if I needed a job, beats not eating/paying bills - nm

IF by PT you mean Physical Therapy -- it's EASY! I love PT, don't get it where I work now tho

Probably old question..history and physical plural or singular?
A history and physical was done OR A history and physical were done.
Bad things? what bad things? people's being petty and small?
