Sounds like a real high IQ broad here - people like this give the industry a bad name

their social circle. Quite sad. They need to get out more.

Don't you know that you can DEACTIVATE your current OS when you upgrade to the next level?  Obviously not. But then, most people here don't seem to be all that computer literate. I asked a couple of computer questions below which got absolutely NO answer.

Don't go jumping to conclusions that someone is a "scammer" and "ruining it for everyone else" until you do your homework.

A while back I had to go to the ER for a particularly bad Meniere's episode.  I asked for an itemized bill, and you know what they charged me for 4 mg of ondansetron? 

$544. 

and I don't care what other people look like either.

I think that was the real message that John and Yoko were trying to send.

It's hard to give you specific what to buy, where to buy, etc. with the little information you have given.

Handheld recorders can be found almost anywhere. Staples, Office Max, Circuit City, Best Buy and Radio Shack all carry digital handheld recorders--you can spend as much or little as you want to.

FTP software is used to transfer files and there are lots of free programs available. You will need a secure server; you may already have space available with your ISP (I know Comcast offers free webspace--it's the same thing).

If you need someone to come look at your setup, the doc's office setup and determine the computer savvy of operators on both ends, you're looking for a consultation. Depending on your location, I can do that for you but there is a fee involved--email if interested. If you don't want to pay for the information, that's fine but be prepared to do your homework and lots of reading. You can't expect someone to answer your message with the specifics you're asking for.

My national is notorious for sending out a sweeping email to everybody in the company when there is a specific problem with a specific client, done only by specific MTs. The same MTs keep making the same erros, upsetting the same client, but instead of contacting the offending MTs directly, they just send out a forwarded email to absolutely everyone.

 Here's a hint: The MTs making the same mistake over and over and over again AREN'T GETTING THE MESSAGE. They don't think it's them! Pick up the phone, or send a private email citing the specific chart/file and the erorr! Problem solved!  The lack of personal attention we're given is sad. No wonder we keep losing clients, they're probably given the same impersonal service. The past 6 months have been the worst, but I am couting the days until the worst supervisor I have ever had finally leaves this joint. 2 days and counting!!!!!

do what is right.  If she fails to do what is right, then go about this in an adult way and not act like such a child.  "you suck"  That is so immature.

She is responding to you and you are eating her alive.  Why would she put herself out there to be treated like this if she didnt mean it. 

I am really astonished at how people can act on here.  Would you treat people like this in person?  If you do, I cant imagine you having very many friends. 

Remember we are all "HUMAN." 

I saw this *** and wanted to share this with other MTs. What is your interpretation of this? Are we going to be out of work for good because I'm thinking electronic medical records are going to replace us, or am I misinterpreting this statement?   What is your take on this?

"...President Obama has also talked about the need to computerize all medical records in five years, creating a huge opportunity for information technology jobs and data entry jobs."

Obviously, you work some place that pays very well and you might even have secure employment. If so, that's great.  Some of us worked for companies that were sold or sent all their work offshore and we had to take jobs where we could get them.  Don't be so quick to judge other peoples' choices.  It's true that in some companies, wages are lousy, but do you really think you'd be a fry cook at the clown's over working from a home office?  If you are earning great wages and have a good job, I sure hope you're able to help other MTs find something as good as what you've got.

MTs for the most part have always been treated poorly, no respect and low pay.  We have to stand up for ourselves and not back down from our line rates because no one is going to look out for us but us.  No, not even the docs and/or the OMs, surprise, surprise!  I say she should go for the full monty.  They get to see more patients and therefore have a higher income.  Why should she have to settle for a lower income because they're smart and use time-saving macros??
