Time varies

In Reply to: I have work going back years - sm -
I worked for a doctor like the one above, records kept for years because they were so slack and careless they'd lose their nose if not attached. The doctors in the group I am with presently, I keep the notes for 3 months out of courtesy, but they have never had to ask for one. It all depends on whether others do their job or not as to how long to keep the reports. Talk to the company/doctor you work for about how long they want you to keep records.

I worked in house up until the year 2000. In the NE area of the US I only made 9.00 an hour. In Florida, I made 18.00 an hour plus 8 cpl per line bonus after 2000 lines per day.
Varies. 11p-7a, 12-8a, 9p-6a, somewhere in there. nm

It varies
I have one account that uses a 60-character line (including spaces) but they only pay 8 cents a line.
I worked for another account that did 65 (with spaces) and paid 10 cents.
Depends on what the client is willing to pay and how much profit the MTSO wants to make. 
varies sm.
If you are with a company over 50 employees, have been there for 1 year, you are entitled to 12 weeks unpaid FMLA leave. Maternity leave is covered for 6+ weeks (depending on delivery method, complications, etc) by short term disability. Good luck!
It varies...
Generally speaking, the standard these days is 65 characters per line including spaces. Some choose to bill by 55 characters per line, some by gross line, some 65 characters with no spaces, some by the page, and some by the minute.
It varies by county in NC
I live in Randolph County, NC and the high school kids here can miss no more than 10 days of school per year before they have to start making up time. The elementary kids can miss 20. If this kid has missed that much school, the school should be contacting social services or someone to get involved. In NC parents can be held responsible and even be put in jail for their children not attending school like they are supposed to. It is truancy and it is illegal.
Oregon -- really varies
11 t0 14 cpl small MTSO 12 to 18 large MTSO. Really varies around here and also depends on whether you deliver, print, or all by digital.
It varies greatly...
Where I work the range is from 6 cpl up to almost 12 cpl so you just don't know. I guess decent is 10 or more. Anything less is not too good in my opinion especially considering I made 8 cents per GROSS line 10 years ago which would equal I don't know maybe around 11 cents per 65 character line and again that was 10 years ago. The only profession I know of where the pay continues to go down! Thanks technology! :(
Varies with the expander
As far as I know, there is no universal shortcut. Each text Expander has a hotkey that you can use to temporarily disable the program without logging out of it.
It varies. 65 is not always the # used. Some places
s
Varies by account
Not trying to make it completely confusing, but the BOS is a guideline and not really a hard and fast rule - at least that's what I've found. I work PT for one company on a large clinic account and they want me to put what the doctor dictates, whether it be b.i.d., etc., or COPD or the like. My FT job for another company has completely different guidelines - I have to expand b.i.d., a.m., etc. and expand all abbreviations unless very specifically told otherwise.
Generally, unless told otherwise I expand in the diagnosis and impression section and leave the rest verbatim.
Clear as mud, huh?
It varies. Newbies usually
start around 6 or 7, average experience around 8ish, and very experienced in everything can make anywhere from 9-11. (This would be as an employee with benes, spaces included. As an IC or without spaces, cpl would be more to make up for that.)
i dunno, maybe 20? it varies depending
on hot topics, mental duldrums, needing breaks from bad dictators, etc. Its usually very momentary.
I don't think FEDERAL varies whereas state...sm
I think states set their own regulations but I do believe that Federal is all one set of rules/regulations. The police might be able to tell you but I think you'd find out so much more via the internet if you know what state he is in. I found someone in jail recently. I put in her name and she is locked up and probably going to get the books slammed at her. Very young nonthinking girl too.
All states and even federales have websites. You can type in INMATE information and then the state and all kinds of links will come up. You can probably this way find his name at some institution and if paroled, call the institution he was paroled from and find out more details if possible.
BEST of luck on this!!! The internet is great for finding even old friends (I found several 30+ years after being in contact).
Forgot to say the income varies according to....sm
what company they are working for. Everybody doesn't make only 12-15 hr. Just like any job, depended on the person and who they worked for.
It varies but make between $12 and $16 an hour - nm
xx
It varies as to location and what docs currently pay in your area. nm
s
It varies but for me it works about 10 lines per minute of dictation.
nm
It varies so much with your ESLs, how good you are with your shortcuts, macros, etc. but most jobs
s
varies: clinic/acute, employee/IC, own accounts/pool.

I've also found it varies from editor to editor -
In one case I researched it fully, and found that both of them were wrong, and I had been right all along.
[Sigh........]
I think it varies greatly from company to company...sm
I was hired five months ago by a national straight out of school at 8 cpl. I think it just depends on your knowledge level and ability, and of course, what the company is willing to pay.
The position varies from place to place..
Sometimes you end up doing VR, which can be really easy or a real pain. Sometimes you end up simply editing files and all is good. Other times, you end up with more job responsibilities and hours than you ever wanted. All in all better than typing LOL.
i think it varies from company to company and/or location
Not anymore. For some time now, I've been working 32 hours and am considered full time to receive

Working full time at home with small children is hard but part time works great
is almost impossible. You will either have to work when your spouse is home or for only a few hours during the day and then more when they are asleep. I work part time at home and my kids (2&5 now) have done very, very well. They are great kids, very well behaved, don't get into much. I stop working to check on them/give them some attention every hour or so while I work (5 hours each afternoon or so) and they get all my attention in the morning and at night. It has worked out beautifully for us.
Yeah, our choc. lab does that from time to time - makes it interesting!- nm

Cannot legally require you to commit time to them as an employee and then not pay you for that time.

full-time in office/ part-time at home
I currently work full-time in a physician's office and have started part-time online. My hope is to eventually go full-time online; however that will be done the road for a single mom with a son in college. My suggestion would be try to type part-time for a MTSO and see how that goes i.e work and money with a decision down the road for ultimately being home all the time. A guaranteed paycheck is always a necessity for me. Hope this helps.
I work part-time hours with full-time pay...
I made over 26,000 this year...
varies from state to state...nm

some of what you want to know varies from company to company,
client to client. The services each have their own QA grading system and you will get a copy at hire that tells you everything they deduct, and for how many points. This usually also includes formatting, such as wrong dates, right exam/wrong patient, etc.
You will need to know your punctuation and grammar first and foremost and use it properly, this is what you do. THEN if the client requests garbage in/garbage out (usually because they don't trust leaving anything up to us), you give it to them even though it hurts -- and should not be marked off QA for it.
Where do you study? Colleges with the 2 yr transcription course in my state make you take a year (or 2) of English grammar. No offense, but it's pretty much a 5th/6th grade review (is vs are, doctors' vs doctor's).
blanks will be limited, usually to 2, before you cannot send the report to client.
Wrong shortcuts - pay attendion to detail.
Varies from company to company
My first company I chose specifically because I knew they had a mentoring program and you had 12 weeks of "mentoring" to get up to speed. The training was very thorough. The first week was all training classes. There were very limited samples (1-2 per doc if at all). I worked there 6 months and never made their production quota, but they didn't care. When I asked my account manager about it, she said they knew the account was very difficult 95+% ESLs) and she wasn't worried about my production, that I was doing well.
I have also worked with companies that just did a training over the phone (usually about an hour) just to learn the platform. Then they did full QA for a day or two and then I was on my own. For both of these companies, I could review all the past reports of the doctors on the platform. That was really nice. I didn't have production requirements with these positions, just a daily schedule that I had to stick to. They just wanted to know when I would be working.
My recent company gave me a 10-minute training over the phone and gave me a couple of samples of a couple of the harder docs. I then had to submit 3 reports to the account manager to review, and then I was off on my own and was required to meet production immediately.
So it all depends. Each company is different. Good luck on the new job!
I work a full time and a part time, but not sure about 2 full-time...
My hubbie is disabled and I am the only one in my family working also, so I fully understand. You will not have a day off at all working 2 full-time as that is going to be the only way you will get in all your hours. I work one job in the mornings from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the other from 5 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. and do have off one day a week, but if I had to get in the extra 15 hours to make the other job full-time I am not sure how I would do that other than lose my only day off. Also, make sure you have your account specifics in front of you at all times because you will get yourself confused as to who is what and having notes will help in that area. Good luck to you, as it is possible, but forget about your house being clean, having any social life, etc. Feel free to email me personally if you just need someone to talk to, as I have been where you are and still am.
Maybe they will. Give it time. It takes time to set up links.
OSI, Precyse, etc tell us more.
full time, part time, statutory
newly defined full time...
newly defined part time....(which is an added classification)
I believe statutory just was not mentioned because there is nothing new about the definition of statutory.
full time/part time/statutory
The definition of full time is new.
There is a new classification called part time.
I believe statutory was not mentioned merely because that has not changed and they do not receive PTO/benefits.
I work 1 full-time, 2 part-time....nm

its a waste of time yet you take the time to respond?
**yawn time for your bed time old thinker*
Hippie?? What pray tell is a hippie? Im not judgmental..I dont care what another is partying about or with or whom they are with..Im not a cop or the warmonger in the White House..far be it from me to judge another..You, however, by your post seem to have grown old before your time..I recommend you just graze on your back yard grass and leave us **alive ones** alone..**yawn**, time for you to go to bed now, hun? Bye..bye..old person..
I do believe she is good enough, and has more than proved that time and time again. NM

part-time or full-time
I'm curious. Are you FT or PT? Thanks.
4 week's time or 4 weeks' time
Does anyone know this one. I will see the patient back in 4 week's time, 4 weeks' time or 4 weeks time. Can't seem to find this in any of my reference books. Thanks in advance.
1 full time and 1 part time for now
I am still pretty new, so that is all I am taking on. I may take on more after I get more experience, if possible.
I never denied that I need a break from time to time, but
I was just stating how I took her post and the fact that I am worried about how my son will react since he is already getting quite upset. But, yes, any parent SHOULD be able to admit that they need a break from time to time...we're only human too! :)
even ISPs have to do maintenance from time to time--sm
and most do this during the wee hours of the morning when MOST people are sleeping and not using the internet. They need to upgrade their services and virus protection just like the home users. This is probably what occurred.
I recently requested time off for the first time...
(3 days off) and gave 2 weeks notice but was asked by my boss to give more notice next time. I thought 2 weeks was decent, but next time I will give at least 30 days.
Do we enter each time there is a new prize, or just the one time?
thanks.
Not 1st time, wont be happy the 2nd time and

Utter waste of time, unless you have a lot of time--then have at it! nm
