Provider search sites?

I had a terrific, very user-friendly provider search that I had found on this board several months ago. Now my computer crashed and had to be replaced and I cannot find it anywhere. Could someone throw me a few site names? Thanks!

search sites
What type of searches are you referring to? I use PogoFrog.com quite a bit (a docs search engine) and labtestonline.com are just a couple that I have. If you can be more specific, maybe I can help.
Do a Google search for ABCZ for lots of sites.

Good luck
We have ours through our cable provider...
Wireless here, too. DBF has 2 puters in his office with the router to the main, NIC card in the other, ditto on the NIC card with my stuff in my office. He sure is handy to have around...my own personal "tech support." 
No, I know not every facility/provider is
compliant, but two wrongs don't make a right. I want to keep my nose clean if the facility/provider is ever charged and investigated for a HIPAA violation - if the gov't has done so thus far. You think the gov't will buy 'oh, I was non-compliant because my client signed my checks'?...nope!
Who's the satellite provider?
Did they have a large dish like a TV satellite dish or just a little thing? If they use that little receiver there's a thing called a YAGI that they can use with it to get through the trees. The larger dish should not have a problem with trees because it does not have to see the tower.
Its your internet provider that determines when
you may or may not be logged out. AOL, for instance, has settings to bop you off line frequently, especially if they perceive inactivity (writing long emails, reading web sites). Generally, its the dial-up providers that do this, while cable connection provides an uninterrupted (usually Ha!) connection. You can call your internet service provider to discuss lengthening the time they allow til they disconnect you...some will happily change settings, others pretend they don't know what you're talking about! If you let me know your provider, I might be familiar with their timing policies...
Talk to your internet provider!
xox :})
What does third party transcription provider mean?
Ask the provider for an itemized statement of all
transactions since you started treatment. Then audit it and figure out where they made their mistake. Then call or visit their business/billing office and CALMLY discuss your findings. If they agree that you do not owe more, ask for a statement showing the adjustment and a zero balance. Then write a letter documenting the conversation.
G ood Luck!
transcription service provider, I think. nm

USATasp is application service provider.
TASP - Stands for "Transcription Application Service Provider". They aren't the MTSO, but providing Voice and Text solutions/platforms to MTSOs to utilize.
P.S. USATasp is the subsidiary of MTStars :)
It wouldn't be tolerated from a private provider, right?
It was a privately held company where they depended on referrals from MDs to keep them in business, in today's work environment the normal TAT is 4 to 8 hours. USUALLY there is someone responsible for matching up each days order slips and the reports and goes to medical records if there is any report missing.
I'm sorry but I think disciplinary action is in order for both parties. This really impacts patient care (can you imagine worrying about your mammogram for a month to find out whether that lump your doctor found is cancer??) Where any of these reports for next-day preoperative evaluations? Geesh, imagine your surgery being cancelled because of what she did.
When I worked at an outpatient diagnostic center, the MR supervisor could not leave at night until all slips were matched to either films on the rad's desk to be the first ones done the next morning or all reports were in the couriers bin for delivery or had been faxed to the appropriate office.
If she does not have the time to send out reports and the supervisor does not have the time to manage the work flow, it seems to me they are both pretty worthless.
just my opinion.

Transcription Application Service Provider.
IOW the smart computer folks who deal with the headaches! :)
They provide HIPAA complaint file hosting/ftp set up for MTs. Some charge per line, other charge per month, it just varies. Some provide a call in dictation service and charge per minute. It's great if you have no capital in invest in equipment. :)
I'm not sure but I think it's what some MTs refer to as a platform?
I had VoIP back in Nov with my cable provider and then went with another IP and just used..sm
my landline because they did not offer VoIP. Now my IP offers it and it works great other than the pedal. Thanks for your help!
Looking for feed back from someone who uses AT&T as their internet provider sm
I get my work over the internet and am just wondering how they are with their services. If you lose your internet, how long does it usually take to get it back up? Do you find them helpful if you have to call? Do they return phone calls promptly? Do they come in and set it up, or do you have to? I'd appreciate any info and feedback about their services. Thanks!
Oh well I cannot stay connected, but my sister uses same provider and has no problem
nm
I would switch your dial up provider before you spend a lot of money updating computer. sm
that particular provider you mentioned puts lots of unnecessary "crap" on your computer.
Change provider vs change to business plan
In your place, I would seriously consider changing providers if there were others available in your area, but I'd ask around about their service quality first. It may not be any better. If there are no other providers, then consider changing your service package to a business account rather than residential. They're usually more expensive, but they also tend to get faster service if there's a problem.
Last summer, I had no electricity for 3 days due to severe storms, but there were some 600,000 in the same boat with me. We just had to wait it out. It's a downside of working at home.
It has nothing to do with sites..
Check with your ISP, modem or phone line.

FTP sites...
Does anyone know of any FTP sites that do not have a user fee? I am currently using a software that charges me 0.025 cpl and I find it's a ripoff. I really don't make any money off this software, AND I paid an arm and a leg for this software. Can anyone tell me where I can find an FTP site that does not charge a user fee? TIA.
OB/GYN sites
Can someone tell me of some good OB/GYN sites out there? For that matter, any good specialty sites. I'm fairly new to transcription and still gathering good reference sites.
Thanks in advance!
MTOhio 
sites
There is chemocare.com and cancer-info.com.
OB/GYN web sites
Does anybody have any good web sites for OB/GYN and peds? I haven't done all that much of either one and I'm having a slow go with the acronyms. Any help would really be appreciated!
FTP sites
Can anyone recommend a good FTP site that would be used on my own computer on the desktop. Thank you.
what other sites do you use?
TIA
Many thanks 2 U both 4 the 3 gr8 sites (sm)
I'm good to go!!
It's right on their Web sites...
Visit this site, read paragraph 2 and notice the word global. It doesn't appear they are trying to hide anything.

Some different sites here too . .
These help me:
For City/States/Counties: *HomeTownLocator* -- http://www.hometownlocator.com/
For Orthopedics: Really great site. Can use search box or click on any part of the skeleton. *Wheeless On Line* -- http://www.wheelessonline.com/
For Medical Abbreviations: Also has a medical dictionary, drug search and medical instrument search, but I just use it for the Abbreviations. *MediLexicon* http://www.medilexicon.com/
For Chemotherapy Drugs - *ChemoCare* http://www.chemocare.com/bio/
For Medical Dictionary - *Dorlands Medical Dictionary* - http://www.mercksource.com/pp/us/cns/cns_hl_dorlands_split.jsp?pg=/ppdocs/us/common/dorlands/dorland/misc/A_TOC.htm
For Clinical Trials - http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/
Those are some of what I use all the time.
thanks a lot for these sites
I appreciate you taking the time to give them to me!
But, I can access all other web sites
So, would it really be my Internet Explorer causing the problem???
I use to go to this one web site where I could always log on even during them updating the site but many others could not - some could, some could not. I just have a feeling this may be the same type of thing - something with the website itself or else I would have problems with other websites, wouldn't I? I can access any other website I want but this particular one - wwww.weightwatchers.com
I thought maybe I needed to clean out my cache or whatever as they may have changed something where it keeps using something on my computer that is old/no longer valid in order to access the site but wouldn't everything I have done so far have eliminated a possible problem such as that??? I did not actually go in and delete anything in any cache so I don't know if that may need to be done yet and, if so, I have no idea where to go and/or which one(s) I need to do that with.
Thanks so much for trying to help. I sincerely appreciate it.
Any of you pet lovers seen these sites?

So cute, and so addicting!
Thanks for the sites. I have a question...
I have avoided calling Dell to ask for help with certain issues because I cannot understand them. If I ask them to transfer me to a US office, will they?
cancer sites
I usually use the NIH-National Cancer Institute site. It has listing of clinical trials, types of drugs, different types of cancer treatments. I also depend heavily on the Oncology Word Book by Stedman.
The other sites might as well not exist
They are so self censored that they won't give a company's name, so they might as well not exist. MTStars is the best board on the internet for FREEDOM OF INFORMATION. Posters may say that people are negative on this board, but they are honest and realistic. The other boards are so full of Pollyannas they are virtually worthless -- INCLUDING boards you have to pay by the month.
if they use the BOS on offshore sites.
If so, the AAMT must be making a killing.
I just checked out both of these sites and
there is no rsp.com and the other said the site was under construction. I have heard that VA jobs are the jobs to have, though. Good luck!!
At my clinical sites,...sm
the physicians' handwritten orders are transcribed by the unit clerk into the MAR (medication administration record), or if they are using Meditech they get transcribed into Meditech, again by the unit clerk. Nurses are very savvy on drugs and doses and are expected to question anything that is, well, questionable. A nurse is liable for administering the wrong drug even if the doc ordered it wrong. Both clinical sites I have been at so far were Magnet status - that is a hospital that has undergone extensive credentialing to show superior nursing care. Magnet hospitals have the lowest nurse:patient ratio, which has been directly linked with less deaths and better patient care... just my two cents.
Drug sites
What are some favorite drug sites? Thanks in advance.
Drug sites
My favorite is rxlist.com
?Rheumatology sites sm
Anyone know any good links to rheumatology sites? Appreciate your answer(s).
some good sites
