Computer is now password protected...sm
Thanks for the advice! I wish I could get a little better control of him - I have also told him computer = $$$. He just feels he has to fix everything for some reason - ARGH!!!!!! Oh well, the password should keep him off of my stuff - I wish it would be that easy for other things around the house! 
What diff. do ? make? Answers will be based

turning off computer at night
I leave mine on -- just do a "control, Alt, delete" and "log off" instead of shut down. It works fine. I have to enter my password the next day, but thats okay.
I've heard the machine will not last as long if it's turned off every night.
I don't know how it made such a small diff in your invoice... made a $100 diff in mine! (sm)
If it were only adding up to three bucks, I wouldn't sweat it. $100? Yeah, that's baseball registration for my son for this year. I am not giving tabs, returns, etc. away free when it adds up to that much difference! Why should I charge less for a Return than I would for a"K"?
Is it easier on your computer to leave it on all night (sm)
rather than shut down/boot up in the morning. How much of a worry is overheating and burnout?
And what about all the cat hair in the fan?
You will definitely make more than $9 and do try it PT at night just to see if you like doing it
before you give up our other job. I did that, left an office, and never looked back. I make an average of $20-25 also and quit a job where I made $15.50, and at the time, I thought it was great money but now I realize I can make more at home and not have to deal with office politics, high gas prices, clothes etc.. its worth giving a try.. you might like it. I never missed having people in my face all day.. but if you like the social part of getting out, being at home will get to you.
sorry.. should be Make-YOUR-own night..... Loonnggg day....

The only way I'd make what a man wanted for dinner every night....
......would be if that man made $200,000 or more a year and I didn't have to work, period. ; )
Sounds great! I may make that tomorrow night.

I think it'll be Make-you-own night. I don't feel like cooking either. (nm)

Don't they make you use a computer they send you?

I need computer help. How do I make PRD work
PRD is on my old MQ program, but I can't seem to get it moved over to my Microsoft Word page. I can't seem to get my Stedman's Spell check over there either.
Help.
To make any computer run faster

Nice tips, but to make any computer run faster
I get so frustrated when people tell me they need a new computer because theirs is to slow. The first question I ask is "how many pictures do you have on there?" Standard response "oh at least a couple hundred, but the guy at the store said it could hold Xamount" yes it can, and every picture/video you add is taking up space. Invest in a few flash drives!!
Plug a WAP into the router and make sure your computer has a wireless card

Just staring at the computer screen can make me feel drugged after 9 hours.

Your name is not protected information
At the hospital I work in we were told your address and name are not considered protected information. However your symptoms, diagnosis and treatment are. I am not so sure I agree with this but apparently the hospital here doesn't think this is a problem.
A few months ago I took my father to a larger hospital near us to have surgery. After waiting in the waiting room for 6 hours the nurses told us the surgery was over the the doctor would be out to see us soon. Assuming since there were several smaller rooms that we would be taken into one of those for the update, NOPE. Right in front of every patient and family members right in the middle of the waiting room. Thank god my dad didn't have a circumcision or something embarrassing. I found that quite strange coming from one of the best hospitals in the whole state of Missouri.
how do get rid of password protected -sm
computer. I had it so a password needed to be entered on my PC but would like to change that now. How do I do that? Thanks.
Password-protected FTP sites are . . .
HIPAA compliant. Are there any that do not require a password? I have never encountered one.
Unions protected workers from exploitation
It seems me that had the unions had a watch dog group, abuse of that system would not have occurred. And there was abuse. A small percentage of people always seem to look for loop holes and then milk something good as long as they can until they ruin it for everybody.
But please, unions are good. If there were unions in Calif for the field workers, conditions would be improved and these unemployed workers across America who have lost their jobs to outsourcing could actually make a decent living at them without work that puts you into a chiropractors' office in ten years.
Of course, the price of food would have to go up or perhaps all of those filthy rich ranch owners would, instead, have to take a cut in income (now there is a possible answer).
demographics are not the only info that is HIPAA protected
Any info that could compromise a patient's privacy is protected. that includes any diagnostic information, tests, diagnoses, etc., and basically anything in that record.
HIPAA only addresses PHI (protected health information) would is defined as anything that SM
specifically identifies the patient, i.e. name, MRN, SSN, account numbers, etc. As long as all identifying information is removed from a report, it poses no HIPAA violation to keep it on file. Furthermore, as an employee of the hospital in the medical transcription department and charged with peforming QA, I have legitimate reasons to access a patient's chart. HIPAA says so.
Go back and read your HIPAA laws again.
I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel. I think she's really smart and a good player. I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner. I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
Files are emailed with password protected zip file attachments done in Word...(sm)
So I could use OE and send this way and ask for a reciept. I love that idea....
Pay for Diff Accounts
It seems to me that the pay per line should vary according to the difficulty of the account.
Everyone agrees that the line count can be totally different from one account to the other, so why doesn't the pay vary? That would be the fair way to do it.
Does anyone know of a company who does that?
Diff between IC & subcontractor
What is the diff between these two? And do most of you have set hours that work as a subcontractor or do you pretty much have flexible hours? Thanks!
YES, MQ pays shift diff but you have to ask for it. SM
I complained bitterly about it and they gave me half a cent per line for nights and weekends. Adds up to about $75 per check and YES, it is paid on my bimonthly check.
Diff between 1200 lines/day with MQ vs Spheris:
If you type 1200 lines a day for 5 days of the week with each company, here is the incentive difference:
MQ: Incentive would be $0.
S: Incentive would be $24.
That is for the entire week.
Ok - There's a diff between DREAM job and REALISTIC GREAT job!
Do want that? Seriously.
I have worked for companied in a diff. state - sm
than I live in. I have not have to pay the other states tax. You just have to pay the tax for the state you live in and of course Federal tax and SE tax as well. I have my DH take extra out of his paycheck to cover my SE taxes. Last year owed about 15% of my net after write offs. But the rule of thumb is to reserve about 30% of your gross to cover state and federal, and SE taxes; and if you think you are going to owe pay quarterly to avoid any penalties. I have not "owed" to date as my husband as enough dededucted, but when I think that may change I will start making payments quartly.
I have,however Ms. Jester comes in under a diff. email addy to
to post. Everytime she comes on to post, I ban her. What is unprofessional about posting the truth about a company owner who is not doing the right thing by paying unpaid wages? I'll go ahead and answer. Nothing.
I was banned from other board for posting diff.

you're right, it's federal but diff for each state...see link...sm

Maybe I'll just have a salad.
Is it their computer? Why are they installing a firewall and autocorrect on your computer? That sm
is usually the responsibility of the transcriptionist, especially if an IC or SE. Which company?
What's the diff between a gross line and a 65-char line?
Mebbe just got my first OWN ACCOUNT YAY! He said to charge him the "going rate" since I pay him that. This could be the start, baby! (I hope)
Question about transfering computer into to another computer.. sm
I have a dumb question - Just bought a new computer and someone told me to get a flash drive to transfer all my info. But I'm assuming that ExText that I work off of and Escription will have to be downloaded again by the tech people onto my new computer. I can tranfer these can I?
Thanks
How does one find out the computer specs on my computer?
I should know this, but I just don't remember how to do this. I am hoping I have enough RAM, or whatever, to load work platform on my own computer and begin working on it, rather than paying *rent* on the company-furnished computer. Thanks so much.
A computer is a computer, whether it be laptop or desktop.
I have both and use both and I bought both of mine...most companies do not provide computers...
You spending 3K in gasoline to make 4K plus all that time on the road?That doesn't make sense Pat
Computer Generated Image or Computer graphic image
How nice that the world revolves around what you make and no one else could possibly make more. sm
Marla in So. California pays 11 cpl for a 55 ccl, Oracle pays 9-1/2 cpl, MDI-MD 11 cpl, JLG 10 cpl for gross line, etc.
Of course, these are rates negotiated and paid to qualified MTs.
When I see mistakes I repeatedly make, I make a quickcorrect for it (sm)
for example if I type we plant o instead of "plan to" I have a quick corrct so that if I type plant o, it replaces it with plan to, etc. It is hard - I was with the same company for 8 years. I do not work for anyone with an accuracy requirement though.
When you make the copay, make them give you a sm
receipt for the amount you pay them. I know they don't like to do this because it takes time, but if you are really stern and insist on a receipt they have to give you one. Then, the next time you get billed for something you already paid, tell them to look for their copy of the receipt and let THEM do the work.
Yes, unfortunately you do have to make a pest of yourself to make it work, but.....
as the years went by that is why I stayed away from those type of companies. BTW, Noni is a fabulous product, I absolutely do not care for the "marketing techniques" they use. One of the facts of this type of industry is you cannot just recruit to make it, you have to retail. Ever since I "overhauled" my techniques and system...I never had to ask another person to some on board again. Well, nuf for now. Take care and have a blessed week!!
lol cut myself off. Anyway, I'll make close to what I used to make with MQ,
