 I wrote to an official in office, a few days ago, about out-sourcing. Trust me there are many concerned people who do not know about personal information going off United States soil. Anyway, here is the response I received back just today. MTs, we have to stick together and stay strong on this one! There may be hope yet.
Greetings, Thanks for taking the time to contact me regarding your concerns about out-sourcing medical records beyond our country's borders. I appreciate you bringing this important issue to my attention. I will forward your very valid concerns for consideration. We have a responsibility to protect personal information and medical records. So many loopholes!!!!! Thank you again and have a Happy and Holy Easter Season. Mauree G.
She also sent me a second E-mail asking that we keep this topic alive in our field. We can do this. Yes we can! Write to your state representatives. Trust me they don't know what is going on, but they do listen. I pointed out that if we work from home in the U.S. that we also save our earth. We are not using gas to travel to other jobs, ect. There are many, many valid issues here. Just take a few minutes and type out a quick note to your representatives.

I agree with all you have said and I do value your opinion. I just thought I would give it a shot. Maybe if enough of us stand up and shout someone with the right amount of $$$$ will hear us. I have also spoken with an attorney who knows others with $$$$ who promised to spread the word. I just cannot sit by and do nothing. I need to know that I gave it my best shot. Wish some big media company would pick up our story and carry on with this fight. I was wondering if there are any New York MTs here? The wife of an official running seems to have great concerns in regards to healthcare issues. I think this would make a great topic for debate in the upcoming elections.
Petition
Thank you for starting this! I have been thinking of doing the same, but did not know how to go about it. You are terrific! I signed it and sent the link to everyone I could think of. This is awesome. Let us keep our fingers crossed (not while typing) that it works!
RE: Petition
I signed the petition because I know firsthand how outsourcing has affected my job. I have lost over 5 accounts and losing my last one due to India. I have just been offered a position to go back in my field of billing that I did 12 years prior to the four I have done in transcription. I am not at all eager to go back into the office, but I have no choice. This field was wonderful four years ago with so much work that my head spin, but now there is nothing all because of Nationals and outsourcing because they- DR- saw a cheap way out thinking that this was better. In fact, from what I hear, it is worse with all the editing. Such a shame this field has gone to the DOGS!!
Maybe we can get a petition going here too? nm
The petition may be more about...
her medical info being leaked to gossip papers. A question was raised about this on the Gab Board under 'Question about med records, privacy and the law" and explains the issue in a little more detail.
please sign this petition...
I received this from my sister, please pass it on. It is very important. It may not be LEGAL, but it is important... just click on the link, then click on the sign petition...let's make our voices heard on this issue...please also pass it on.. .
Mastectomy Bill in Congress:
It takes 2 seconds to do this and is very important...please take
the time and do it really quick!
Breast Cancer Hospitalization Bill - Important legislation for all
women.
Please send this to everyone in your address book. If there was ever
a time when our voices and choices should be heard, this is one of those
times. If you are receiving this it's because I think you will take the
30 seconds to go and vote on this issue and send it on to others you know
who will do the same.
There's a bill called the Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act which
will require insurance companies to cover a minimum 48-hour hospital
stay for patients undergoing a mastectomy. It's about eliminating the
"drive-through mastectomy" where women are forced to go home hours after
surgery against the wishes of their doctor, still groggy from anesthesia
and sometimes with drainage tubes still attached.
Lifetime Television has put this bill on their web page with a
petition drive to show your support. Last year over half the House
signed on.
PLEASE!! Sign the petition by clicking on the web site below. You
need not give more than your name and zip code number.

Also sign this petition and have your
family & friends sign it as well. It offers you the option of sending it to your representatives and senators too:

THANK YOU!
One suggestion for those signing the petition - (sm)
I just went to it to see how many signatures there are. There are a LOT. The only problem I see is all the "Annonymous" signatures. That makes the petition less powerful, and if I were the one receiving it, I would have to wonder just how many times a single person could sign it as "Annonymous". So show some chutzpah, people! A lightning bolt is not going to come out of the sky and strike you down simply for signing your name to a petition. This is America, remember? Please use your NAMES, not a cop-out.

Petition to keep medical records from going overseas!
If you have concerns about losing your job to offshore transcription companies, please sign this petition, http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/medrecords. Ask your friends and family to sign it if they have concerns about their private information being sent overseas. If they don't want their medical records sent offshore for transcription, ask them to sign it too. Its going to all of the big-wigs in DC, and the sooner the better. If we all stand up together, we can fight offshoring in our industry (some?), save our jobs, and protect our private information! http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/medrecords
We should start a petition, sign it, and send it to AAMT, and all other associations
who are making plans for our future...
Should just post all their open positions in one post and only be allowed to post one of those a day

Ignore my post. I finally found the post on how to do this. nm

Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line. Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with. At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone). At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight. It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat. Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are. You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents?? They sound whacked. Please be careful.
Sorry, I posted this post under the wrong post

Excellent post! I copied this post and...

Ah, I really meant to post that under the original post
Though it was gourdpainter's post which inspired me to post that suggestion.

what mean post made you post your post
 Which mean post was the straw that broke the poster's back.
Yes, she had post partum depression AND post partum psychosis. I posted on this a while back, and
it explained the two. The psychosis actually develops after the depression. Scary stuff.

Don't they post that information when they post the
job listing?
Thank you for your post
You posted it like it is. What about this young boys parents?? What was he doing out at 2-3 in the morning?? What kind of parent would allow that?? No where have these posters who are blaming the victim even tried to put blame on this boy. Amazing. I hate to say it but the old cliche is true. very few women stand together or help each other, the claws come out and they attack each other. This young boy has told several different accounts of what happened that night. My take is that they put a date rape drug in her drink, as some of her friends said she was acting strangely.

that's all I can do regarding this post-
Yes, we see that. However, this post was done before her post.
Was there even a need for your post?
Your post really says it all!
Best post all day. Thank you. (nm)

is this post from JMO ?
First of all, I can post here if I want. Second, SM
it's not necessarily having a "unique ability to spot a loser right away." Too many women have baby rabies and don't care whose sperm they get, as long as they get that baby. Then, when daddy's true colors come out, it's too late. THEN they so very often breed with them AGAIN. What the hell is wrong with these women? Then then end up "single mothers" with a giant chip on their shoulder, expecting the world to make up for their bad choices.
Yes, dads die. But from what I see 95% of single mothers got that way by having kids with the wrong men.
my post
see, 1600 or 1700 lines in 8 hours. But I can spend 3 or 4 hours of really doing nothing but typing and do 1000 lines. I shouldn't take 8 hours to do 1600. I should be able to 2000. I find that I get on this board, zone out, get up a lot, etc., after I reach my 1000. That is what I need to work on!
maybe no one knows anything else to post! nm

I was going to post in regards to this but
honestly I'm not even going to waste my breath!
not one post in particular (sm)
just the general tone of the posts lately...mean, nasty, downright catty...and not necessarily just this board, but the general population as well. Like driving on the freeway--rude people cutting you off, etc--in the grocery store--the rude cashier--it's everywhere. Can't even hardly go to church anymore without some drama going on.
