Maybe my thinking is off here but . . do if I was covered under my husband's bennies program I&#
I like working at home too much I guess - not really in a rut, just very, very comfy here and like being my own boss all day long. JMHO.

Have you ever been educated?
because you sound very unintelligent.
Not so. I am an educated person, but not
what I call a smart person. My DH has more education than me and is extremely smart, but has zero common sense, whereas I have a lot of common sense.
I have a brother who has 3 undergrad degrees and 2 master's degrees and signed up to take a course at MIT and they asked him to teach it instead. The poor guy hasn't got a lick of common sense. He has 2 engineering degrees and it literally took him 6+ hours to hang 2 pictures. I also have a sister who graduated the top of her college graduating class and she took hasn't a lick of common sense. She isn't blond, but we sure get a laugh over the questions she asks sometimes. She is 8 years older than me, but knows a lot less than me in terms of general fund of knowledge.
I'm educated, too, but you don't see me telling
medical providers what they should or shouldn't say in their reports. You knew this would blow up when you posted it, so don't play all innocent victim here. What does using one word have to do with the patient's privacy? It certainly didn't stop YOU from posting it on the Internet!
They were covered in my MT course, and
I have read hundreds of them (used to work in health insurance claims).
So you are educated in the laws of Aruba? Wow.
I sound like I have lack of knowledge about this case, as does Mrs. Twitty. So, I guess me and Mrs. Twitty should look to you for explanations and answers as to where her daughter is and what happened to her? Do you have some inside info the rest of the world is not privy to? I'm just wondering because if not, you are blowing a lot of hot air around and basically just about as uneducated about the laws and the evidence surrounding this case as the rest of us.
I did not know the words educated, experienced, etc.
could only be used by Northerns? I think MTs here fit that bill as well. Thanks for your concern.
It's a sad day when a highly educated doctor can't
I'm talking epistaxis here, ok...not that hard of a word. She won't even put forth the effort to pronounce words correctly, especially medications, which in my opinion is downright dangerous. I wouldn't want her for my doctor...way to dangerous of a dictator. BTW, I never, ever guess on a medication, even if I am confident about what she MEANS to say...so always end up sending hers to proofing...okay, I'll get off my  now...good day all!!!
that pretty well covered it....
Are they very quick with getting back with you when you apply? I have 5 years exp and taught one quarter of med trans at a local community college. I'm working in a doc office now (not doing transcription) but want to get back into working at home doing transcription. I had gotten away from it in 2004 because my husband got deployed and I wanted to make sure we had good insurance while he was gone which is why I took the job with the doc office. He was gone for 16 months and is now home and getting ready to take a really good job, which is going to allow me to start working at home again doing transcription. Hoping to hear from them soon. Thanks again for your input!!!
Wow, you have a lot covered in that dish. How about
cottage cheese. Bread of course.

Deep south, educated, experienced too
I think the $12 is very low wages. Would make more than I do now except most hospitals outsourced now and nationals have taken over. I do fine with mine, though. Oh. we are well rounded here in the south.

are making $19.76 hr average plus incentives, production bonus, and bennies....I loved working in-hospital, but right now I have family situations which must come first...no amount of money to sacrifice their welfare.

Couple of thoughts....I have a covered box as well, and one cat would do the same
thing as yours if I didn't make sure the litter box was clean. (I had 2 cats using it). So, I make sure to dump it out once a day and then spritz in a citrus smellie thing as well as sometimes sprinkle baking soda in the bottom. This, of course, is in between the times before I change out the litter. Also, another idea that may or may not work is to put foil on the mat. My cousin had a cat that started to pee on the spare bed--no known reason--and she learned somewhere about cats not liking to go onto foil. So, she keeps sheets of foil on top of the bed. It works. Maybe also try to catch him in the act and push him all the way into the litter box to re-train him that this is not acceptable, maybe a little spank as you catch him and push him inside. Cats are trainable in some ways.
I have always worked 2 so my butt is covered - sm
Just make it so the your work schedule does not overlap. I generally try to work 1 during the day, and do the other a few hours at night. If I get the one done at night early enough I may start on my other IC jobs work until I get to tired and go to bed. Probably work about 10 hours or so a day with a big break between 3:30 and 7:30 basically. It is not hard to do, just if you slack off at one, then it is hard to get caught back up and stay that way.
Names are not covered. You can call any
hospital and unless the pt is a psych patient, they will tell you if they are a patient or not--unless they have requested the info not be given out.

Since you have recently become an advocate for these "well-educated" professionals....
please justify the 20 minutes I had to sit and listen through all because the doc left his hand held recorder on. I actually had to sit there and listen to him urinate AND defecate! Immediately after hearing the toilet flush, I could hear the door open and then several footsteps that led him to meet, greet, and converse some more. I was more appalled at the fact that such a "well-educated" medical professional didn't care enough to wash his germ infested hands after his restroom break. Unbelievable.
Companies have to be sure they are covered for specific times, many
places have set hours, some have 10 hour window for an 8-hour shift, but they still have to know when you are working, you can't just work whenever you feel like it.
Verbatim stinks! As a MLS, you're educated and trained to edit

I do not carry E&O insurance, but I do have my equipment covered under my HO policy.
My office is in my home and, God forbid, there should be a fire, I'd be out of business. I have coverage for my computer, printer, fax, phones and loss of use on a separate rider. Also, should anyone injury themselves coming or going from my office while doing business with me, their injuries are covered. Perhaps this is the information you're looking for.
oh good grief. Haven't we heard enuf of this? Educated people are just

It will count everything if you go in the settings and program it to. Good program!
Sylcount is an awesome and accurate counting program also. That will count everything if you "tell it to".
I think I smell either VR on the easy stuff, or offshoring of the easy stuff.

You can use Shorthand in ANY program, it works outside your program
I have never found a platform it did not work with and I have worked on several different versions of Meditech. Just start using it.
M-TEC has a Basic program (12 month) and a Premier program (18 month). To WAH, you should take the P

Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.

stuff
I really, really saw a shooting star or an angel or something the day before my Dad's funeral 10/15/00. It was a crystal clear day, I heard something that just lead me outside and I looked up and saw the shooting star or whatever. My Brother-in-Law saw it too because he was outside washing the cars. But it was a calming thing, like he was giving us a signal that he was doing just fine.
QA stuff
I have a hard time with ESL's but I was trying my best
I'd tell them to stuff it, but that's just me
Sick of the way the companies refuse to let the facilities or the physicians know when they're just being ridiculous and take it out on us because we're "nobody important."
Do not buy from the(right)stuff
I paid $390 for a C-phone that worked for 20 minutes. It kept shorting out, and then died. The repair shop said motherboard was fried, not repairable. The guy did not even include the power cord with it. Rip off.
I could become such a cow on that stuff!
It is addictive. Yummy.
Well, I know my stuff, been doing nothing but ER MT
for 10 years...why I don't I get paid for my knowledge, for being a good employee, i.e., never call off even if sick, never miss my shift, and still not valued. Not sure I understand what you mean in your post about MTs not being good MTs because when you do find a GOOD MT, y'all don't value them anyway!
QA stuff
Hayseed, I don't know squat about QA, but learning something new in this field only makes you more valuable to yourself and to the company you work for. You have nothing to lose, lots to gain, and if you hate it, you can always go back to transcribing. Variety is the spice of life!
Congratulations! Let us know how you like it after you get a few days under your belt.
I do all that stuff too. But sometimes you just don't
Even more often, you don't always get the CORRECT results. Then you end up having to do research on the research. Sort of like looking into a succession of never-ending mirrors.
There's a way to get around all that stuff -
When mgmt. gets stingy about vacations, all you have to do is catch the "flu". A cold, they want you to come in and give it to everybody. The flu, they DON'T! Cooking for potlucks? The easy way: Just say NO to potlucks. Feel you MUST participate? Bring in a small bag of potato chips or carrot sticks. Office meeting? Good time to do those Kegel exercises or other isometrics. Pretend to be taking notes, & have a page of a crossword puzzle hidden underneath. Mentally think of what you need at the market and make a shopping list. Play tic-tac-toe or hangman with the person sitting next to you. If you're stuck sitting there watching someone's mouth flap for an hour and a half, try to envision money flying out of it and into your pocket, which is essentially what's happening. Not getting enough breaks? Develop "overactive bladder", and occasionally overshoot the ladies' room and instead go outside and take a lap around the building. If you have a computer-related pain or injury, a doctor's prescription can buy you mandatory breaks at regular intervals. Nothing they can do about it.
crock pot stuff, one more
This is something I made when my kids were growing up. SO EASY! A blade pot roast is what I always used. Put IN crockpot...sprinkle on a package of taco seasoning mix, NO LIQUIDS. Cook eight to 10 hours. Shred meat and serve on tortillas, put out chopped onions, chopped green chili peppers, avacado, chopped tomato, actually anything the kids like...let them make their own soft tacos. Enjoy.
Maybe some, but I do. However, I have MTs that don't and GUESS at stuff.

Yesterday and all the other old stuff.
Not to worry. No depression here. I just think it's a beautiful song.
