lab test link
www.labtestsonline.com is where I go at least once every day. It's actually a good site for a patient to look up tests they had or will have. Lots of info on what's normal, why it's done, etc.
It's a test in progress to measure what MTs know and what type of test to give for the SM
different levels of MTs. It's over $90. That's a lot of money to pay to someone who is giving these tests for research as to what type of testing should be done for the different levels of MT. The AAMT will probably take the results and make a test that they can give in India or the Phillipines or some other foreign country.
tuning fork test: Is it about a hearing test? .See inside
A whisper is about 20 dB
Loud music (some concerts) is around 80 to 120 dB
A jet engine is about 140 to 180 dB
Hope I could help
Not a medical typing test but this website can test you..
It's called www.typingtest.com
Atleast it will give you an idea.. Sadly, I had to take it twice before I passed it LOL
Why would they do a microalbumin test when she has the period? A lot of test s will come out wrong

Neer's test is a shoulder impingement test
Don't think that has to do with the knee. How about "bucket handle tear" of the knee? Never heard of Neer having anything to do with the knee.
SPOT?
.
HIT it on the spot.
Thanks so much! You answered alot of my concerns.
Greatly appreciated!
I like the spot questions
I'm not sure why you freeze up? Pretend you are transcribing. Don't you have to answer these same questions on the fly every day? I know sometimes it's something like a drug name that I've relied on my expansion software to memorize for me, but even then, I can get the other 13, 14, or 15 questions right. I'm a transcriptionist. It's what I do. Same with you. Take a deep breath and do your best. A heck of a lot more fun than taking one more , egggadds, on-line test.
I correct it on the spot...
By doing so, it may hurt productivity, but the way I look at it is that productivity ain't worth a thing if the transcript isn't accurate, and by waiting to correct it, I may forget to do so. Of course, the software I use will not let me send a transcript until it has been completely spell checked, so that helps, too!
I do! And there was always a sandy spot on it sm
that would tear through the paper, and I'd have to start over. We weren't allowed to use White-Out or corrasable (sp) paper then.
If you find a spot for just OPs
I want to be invited too! Those are my moneymakers, but unfortunately I don't get them as often as I like!
Thanks, I wasn't sure if I was in the right spot
.
and how do you spot a liar??
just wondering. I have a bridge for sale.
This post is spot on.
It has been my experience in-house in my moderately large urban area and with a service that VR will always need editors and is no threat to good MTs. It is absolutely EMR. In my area, many 4-10-doctor clinics now use EMR. They DON'T use MTs anymore. But some still dictate. I think in 5 years, it will be very hard for a newbie to find work.
Boy oh boy, have you ever hit on a sore spot with me! -(sm)
I'm up against the same thing with that da**ed BOS. Every other day, it's something. Put a dash between words. Don't put a dash between words. And then each account varies from the BOS in its own unique and utterly ridiculous ways. Frequently the BOS goes against what's correct punctuation and writing style.
This whole BOS cow-pucky is keeping a lot of people busy, and in all the wrong ways. We're so busy worrying about the absurd minutia that BOS tells us is Law, that it's harder and harder to get a decent day's worth of transcribing done.
If MT co's want to use the BOS, then they should tell their clients that that's the standard they're going to be using. But no, every account, even every DOCTOR, wants it their way. I have no problem with typing every account and every doctor their way, but then I sure don't want QA flooding my inbox with marked-up reports, telling me I've done it wrong.
I truly believe that the whole purpose of BOS (besides making couple of shady characters very, very wealthy, is to further justify paying us less and eventually driving American MT's entirely out of the field. An MT can be very experienced, accurate, and fast, but if you keep playing the shell-game with the account specifications, and changing them up every other day, no one on earth is going to be able to keep up with all that and maintain a high QA score.
And the bottom line? Since WHEN does it matter to patient care (which is SUPPOSED to be the bottom line in the medical industry) whether you spell out numbers below 10, or type them in numerals? Since when does it matter if the date is March 14 or 3/14? It DOESN'T! When the doctors check our reports to sign, or before going into surgery, etc., does anyone really think they give a rat's backside about whether we capitalized "operating room", or spelled out the number ten? All that matters is accuracy and readability! The almighty BOS doesn't matter to them one iota.
This whole BOS/QA analness of MT is driving me crazy, too, because it's all about being jerked around.
happens quite often i would test again or go see your GYN for blood test which is more accurate

Or try Folex or Spot Shot.

You are right. I've always said I'm just in a good spot. sm
I hope I have never acted like anybody wasn't good enough. I sure didn't mean to.
I have used Bio-Spot on my dogs for years. (nt)
how 'bout a camera on that spot?
I was asked to take a pay cut and quit on the spot.
I needed the job, but I would not allow myself to take a pay cut. I am working again for more money than I was making.
Bald spot on head???
Has anyone ever had this happen or know of anyone who has had this happen? My 14-year-old son has a spot on the top of his head that is bald. It's about the size of a quarter. He has never had this and it came all of a sudden a couple of weeks ago. There is no hair growing out of this spot. ~
Should I take him in to have it checked or is this a common thing? I typed it in Google and came up with something called alopecia maybe. ~ I'll take any advice anyone wants to give me. Thanks!!!
I think our bodies are just not made to sit all day in one spot! sm
I have the same problem - I can't sleep at night and I am bored and sleepy all day. I am getting ready to ask to change my work hours so that I can go for a walk for about an hour mid-morning. I used to do that and it helped tremendously with keeping my energy up and helping me sleep at night.
That is also a very sore spot, I agree
I requested the same thing about 2 months ago, could a physician pleaseeeeeee spell a name, especially when wanting a cc sent and was told if I could not find, just to pend the note and so I do. Why they are so against asking for a spelling is just beyond me. That should be a no brainer but noooooo, don’t get a high and mighty physician upset.
bright spot in the employment picture
I just got a job working for a hospital with a 3/4 million dollar transcription budget whose HIM director wants to bring all the work back in house. He's offering IC as well as employee with bennies/time off positions. The wages are fair, and I'm making a great line count on their software (he even let me install my own word expander). This is a Michigan hospital, but he actually has MTs in other states who work for him. I had to go in house to train, then I went home. For anyone who's interested this is at Covenant Hospital in Saginaw, Michigan.
Of course, I apologize for placing my post in the wrong spot!! :)

I simply chose the wrong link. See inside for the correct link.
See link
Yeah a 30 minute test---work for free, he gets enough to test, his work is done - nm

Or maybe that in itself IS the test! It's really an ethics test, LOL. nm

what link? You failed to include link
Black widows are shiny black, females have red spot
There aren't many males around. After the mate, the females eat them lol.
We have black widows galore here in Calif. I actually keep frogs in my yard (provide ponds for them) and they have made a big impact on the insect population.
Remember to always wear shoes (something I try to do).
I think you forgot the link? I don't see a link
to check this out....sounds interesting.....

You really should not be asking for help if this is a test sm
If this is a test for school or employment, it really should be done by you. It is not a fair test if someone else does it for you. If this is not a test, please clarify and maybe people will help, but I think it is cheating otherwise.
test, this is only a test. nm

If this don't work, I'll quit.
If this is just a test then (sm)
why don't you just pick something...like @@@ or ??? or *** or something like that...leave it for where you find it inaudible, and when you send back your test just tell them. You could do ___inaudible___...anything. Just let them know when you send the test back. If you were actually working, then you'd go by the account specifics for how leave a blank, but for a test, just pick something appropriate and let them know.
We have to test because there have been....sm
too many times that people claimed they were transcriptionists, or could do a certain work type, only to find out they couldn't and were bluffing. Testing is the only way to tell if an applicant has any knowledge or not. Resumes don't always tell what their true skill level is.
That's the best way for a co to test you because they never know if someone sm
is having someone else take a written test for them. The best way to test and just as accurate as mega transcription tests is oral phone testing. That way, it comes from what is in the person's head of what they know

Don't feel bad....I've been an MT for 24 years, & failed 2 tests, but passed several others.
Yes, and it's $95 to test for it...
I cannot imagine what they will come up with next! Obviously AAMT is in a crisis financially and is trying to dig their way out. Why would anyone desire this bogus, worthless designation?
I'm thinking of offering an "SMT" for only 10 bucks . . . and NO TEST!!! What do you think???
Oh, what is "SMT?" That would be Smart Medical Transcriptionist, of course!!!!
To test him I'd say
Gee honey, I'd don't want to disappoint the children again. Maybe next time we'll suprise you instead.
I wonder what his reaction would be to that!
