Didn't realize name newbie was taken,
just saw post below.
ooh I didn't realize you only enter x1...sm
I'm sorry because I didn't realize until this thread that we can only enter ONE time. I entered a couple of contests over a couple of days. Sorry. Will up my reading comprehension for next year's MT Week.
Thanks again, MTStars, for making it a very special week for all of us!!!
Sorry, didn't realize I used same name - different QA person here

LOL! Didn't realize that. She is a real
Isn't she?
I guess I didn't realize we worked
LOL
Oh, sorry then. I didn't realize that the only person allowed
Get over yourself. You're no peach either, hon.
I didn't realize you are the thread poster ...
Did you meet the criteria set for the bonus? If you did, seek a legal remedy.
If you didn't, go on about your business.
If you believe you are owed a bonus, and it is not paid when it is supposed to be paid, then they are in arrears to you.
I personally wouldn't give that company a 2nd opportunity to fail to pay. I would quit and seek legal counsel.
Good luck.
sorry, didn't realize there was a time limit. I
personally just read some of the posts.
I didn't realize that until I read the EULA
the other day after talking about this. I've never had 2 computers, so I had no idea. I took it off and bought a new one for the 2nd computer. Thanks for the info.
didn't realize this video was 10 years ago
I also saw a video of Hunter Hays when he was older, and I thought it was so weird that there were two boys with the same name that both played accordian. I missed the part on the younger version that said it was an old video... still almost too cute to be true.
Sorry, I got cut off and didn't realize it. I was told it was more of a way to get the work back
I was told it was more of a way to get the work back and forth. Does it actually affect the line counts?
well, excuuuuse me. I didn't realize it had been deleted till after my first post

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you wanted the fairy tale version of the truth.
In that case, it doesn't matter what school you choose because you'll always be able to get a job. Medical transcription is a bed of roses right now. Offshoring is just a myth and you can make at 25 cpl with any of the MTSOs out there. They are all completely reputable, always honest, and totally respect every MT that they have ever employed. Why, most MTSOs adhere to a strict policy of keeping their MTs happy and helping them be productive, they actually solicit their MTs opinions in an effort to better the profession and working conditions.
Now that you've had your little fantasy, maybe you can face reality! THE MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION INDUSTRY SUCKS RIGHT NOW. Unless you are an experienced MT who owns your own service or has your own accounts, you absolutely cannot earn a decent living. The only way to eek out a living as an employee or IC of a service, is to chain yourself to your PC and work 12 hours a day or more. Forget you have kids, forget you have a husband, forget that there is a world outside your front door. Just type, type, type until your fingers bleed and then, MAYBE you can pay your bills and buy groceries at the end of the month!
That is reality! That is the way it is and if you don't like it, tough! I'm not someone who sugar coats and coddles. I tell it like it is. Don't waste your money on an MT school. Look into medical coding. Becaise of the EMR, more and more facilities are letting their coders work from home. Not to mention that medical coding has a wonderful advocate in the AHIMA. You have the backing and protecion of a wonderful association that works toward elevating the coding profession and protecting salary ranges. AHIMA commands respect for the coders and the HIM professionals.
Those are great sites - thanks!

Thanks!!! Great references and sites (nm)

Thanks to all who shared their reference sites with me; I received some great new ones! nm

I didn't have a great one either.
While my kids were wonderful and since they are 1 and 3 daddy got them a card and roses to give to me, but my husband was rather rude to me all day. It really ruined my day! He got me a card and told me to go buy somthing for myselt. He never took me out or anyting, so I sat home all day. It was so boring, and I was so unhappy because he was being a jerk.
Well I had a great one and didn't feel
like it was exhausting or draining like a lot of people seem to feel about them. Maybe it is just me and my approach. I usually make about $300, but 1 year made $400. I consider that GOOD. JMO.

It's not complicated at all....
Down here in Mobile Alabama, we make Princess cake all the time. All ya do is go to Winn Dixie or Piggly Wigly and get an angel food cake. Bring it home, upwrap it, set it on a plate, and get one of those plastic tiaras you get at you local dollar store for 25 cents and set it atop. Viola! You got real, live, princess cake!
It is a bit complicated. sm
They pulled my pay from me---lowered it to their beginning level and I just feel that is why they are trying to get rid of me. So why don't they just fire me? They took away one particular job type, which is something I do for another company all day long. So it was a bogus reason. Truthfully I think they are trying to cut corners money-wise but I sit and wonder sometimes if they want me to quit. Just don't know but thanks for the information.
Do you know the song, Complicated?
Hope this works ----
Both are complicated and have their own languaged. sm
If you are good MT and have reference materials, neither are very difficult.
It's actually a very complicated question. sm
Most places I have been an employee, they expect you to work the full time, whatever it is. Since you are usually not hourly, the only benefit to working extra lines above required is the extra money you make. I think some places have tiers that raise your line rate or give a bonus for above a certain amount. For myself, I have found that if I must work 8 hours, I have to slow down because I wear out. I actually produce as much in 6 as I do in 8.
Does anyone else have another explanation?
If when you say "less complicated" you mean easier...
Derm.
YES, if the pregnancy or delivery was complicated...nm

Worker's Comp can be so complicated, and documentation is everything.....
The other complicated issue with this situation is the fact that many physicians are no longer taking on Worker's Comp cases, in new or well established patients, because of the complicated criteria for correct documentation and the long wait on overdue payment from BWC. In my area, several physicians have thrown in the towel with WC cases and no longer handle them. The patients are referred to Occupational Health Services in most cases, or told to go to Fast Track (ER service) for immediate treatment and documentation that is relevant to the injury. It is good if your family physician does accept WC cases. It is also good that he has decided to return the money to his employer and return to the doctor's office and treat the injury as it is, as a work related injury. In a situation like this, Documentation is everything, so the sooner he gets back to the doctor- the Better! Hope all goes well for him.
thanks so much! i felt dumb, LOL. Definitely sounds complicated, but will be trying out how many l

I totally agree. Operative notes are more complicated and should be
paid at a higher rate. I know it takes me longer to do them because so many different surgical pieces of equipment can be used etc. Anatomy has never been a problem but mainly the different surgical equipment items. I would love to find a job that offered me more. I just dont know where they are.
Is the em dat (?) program user friendly - can you make lines - complicated to learn?nm

Well of course we know that now. Back then we didn't because he didn't allow unfettered access.

right we children didn't tattle to the administrator did we. BTW, didn't you think we were &#
because some half-witted idiot said everyone was jealous because some other anonymous poster said they were going to be a doctor. Didn't they call it doctor envy. Oh yeah, that was all about you wasn't it busy-body MT. You with your degree and premed but yet you still post here and acuse others of jealously. I dunno but you and dano seem so close, I can't put my finger on it but I would say you could be computer clones. Jealous indeed. Children indeed. I think you are blowing your covers) dano and busy body MT. This whole "jealously" thing makes me think that you may be one and the same poster.
I didn't go into labor until 2.5 weeks later, so it didn't work. Sorry!...nm

Yes, I realize
that especially consults are often dictated in letter form... just something you have to get used to if you are doing the big 4. I was referring to clinics who send out little notes to referring MDs, family members, insurance companies, patient jobs, etc., not hospital notes.
Yes you did, but you must realize that...
just because you couldn't/didn't succeed doesn't mean others won't do well. As someone else in this thread mentioned, if you couldn't handle indepedent study, you most likely could never handle working independently as an MT. So, in your case, it's probably a blessing that you couldn't cut the program. 
You do realize, do you not, that
this is just a story made up by TV writers? These are not real people. You do know that, don't you? None of it really matters. It's just a STORY.
I realize that
Of course I am blessed. I am blessed to do a job that I love as well! However, I just feel taken advantage of without a raise in five years... I guess I just never understood that. I've never had a "real" job so I guess I'll learn to deal with it.
I realize that..
Yes, they are busy people but come on now, when I cannot understand an allergy because my dictator is smacking through it and does not repeat it, I get a little irritated, especially when she does it almost daily. I just needed to vent this evening.
I'm sure you don't realize how....
insulting it is to those of us who have spent many, many years learning to be an MT when people ask us if they could do it so they can stay home with the kids or maybe earn some extra money. It's like someone asking if it would work for them to be an engineer because they like to look at pretty buildings. For some reason, people who have never done this seem to think all you have to do is sit down and type. As the "nice" poster said, it takes years of training and many more skills than being a fast typist. Most of us are just a little touchy about that attitude that anyone can do it. Even though that my not be your opinion, it came across that way in your question.
I realize this is going nowhere, but saying thanks
for a gift and throwing it away is not being thankful for the gift. Obviously if you were truly thankful for the gift, you wouldn't throw it away. I believe you would only throw a gift away if you felt it was a bad gift, which was the OPs contention in the first place.
Your mother is 100% right in saying you should be grateful for the things you have and receive, but there really is such a thing as a poor choice for a gift.
At least some people realize what they are and SM
don't have to hide behind some facade just to please inferior people.
Superiority is a threat to mediocrity.
Just because someone is not a sheep and does not follow the crowd makes some sheep nervous!
aww...your makin me cry...i realize that tho..
and i thank god everyday that he gave me the gift to type and work hard to be able to be home with them...instead of them being off in some daycare 40+ hours a week...i take it back...
My DH is starting to realize that I just....(sm)
might not stick around for much more of his stuff. I know that won't change him though. I just know it...
Hopefully docs will realize
that their time is better spent seeing more patients than doing data entry..glad that your docs realized this. I had one lone hold-out who refuses to do the clerical entry... but doesn't dictate either... still writes ShortHand notes in charts....Ugh!
Sorry - did not realize I was not allowed to do that. Really, sorry..nm
nm
they don't realize anything...don't care to!
Have really had it with this job.....tired of the whole deal. To think I spent thousands of dollar in schooling, thousands of hours studying, thousands of hours in experience to come to the point where I wish I would have never gotten into this field! Alas and alack, must push on...and the docs just don't give one hoot!
Actually, I did not realize that, but I am glad
