Yes, they do. If you can pass their test, you can work for them
We were all newbies at one time. There are companies that hire newbies. You just need to find them. Try the big nationals or small MTSOs with clinic notes. Or you can start out with Worker's Comp, physical therapy, chiropractors, vets, dentists or insurance, and then transition into full MT after you've finished your training and education. Try working on-site in a doctor's office or in a hospital. Once you've proved you can do the work, they'll often let you work at home. Be proactive instead of reactive.
Yes, but the test files are indicative of the actual work.
If the sound quality was so terrible, you didn't want to work there anyways! Right? I do know how you feel. I brain fahrvegnugened on the difference between brady and tachy. Now, everybody knows that one. I just got momentarily confused on it because I get "deer in the headlight" syndrome on oral testing.
Doesn't work that way with me. I just did a test from my other email addy to the other one, decl

Need Lanier ExWriter to test. Will VDI station or C-phone work or can I rerecord?
I am unfamiliar with the Lanier ExWriter. Can somebody please fill me in? I have a C-phone, VDI station, a call-in system with L.E.E.C.H. capabilities that can download work onto my system from another, or rerecord equipment. Can you access files from call-in systems like you can with a regular telephone and C-phone? How is the sound quality? I am not to thrilled with the .dss or WAV files.
Thanks!
Trying to take a test in Express Scribe and cannot get my foot pedal to work. I dont want to
cause a problem in DQS with the foot pedal either. Any suggestions. I have the foot pedal that you use for DQS. It is an Infinity foot pedal.
There are web sites that will test you for free.
Somebody posted a site.
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.
happens quite often i would test again or go see your GYN for blood test which is more accurate

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

Yeah.. I work TOO much. I know I could work less if I could just sit there and focus..
I know how you mean in NH.. and we'll leave it at that.. You mean you actually take vacation when your on vacation LOL..I also am going on vacation in July (Disneyland..yippee) but will be taking along the computer to work while I am on vacation..pretty sad.. but I cant afford just to not work. For me, I just need to refocus. When I do focus, I average $30 an hour, I just find it's hard to sit there 8 hours, but it's worse when I realized I could be done in 8 for what I drag out to 12..It's my goal...to work my 8 hours and stop for the day. 
I do a 20 minute pilates work out every day and within
7 to 10 days I saw changes that I was absolutely thrilled with. Hope this helps. You will see results within a week or two. Good luck!!!! You can do it!
The company I work for pays by the minute--
So when you have dictators just sitting there taking their time those minutes can add up.
Anyone ever work for a scant that has NO HELP in the office and is always last minute? Watch out fo
I have been helping out an attorney for the last 5 or 6 months because medical wasn't as busy around here, I haven't done this kind of work in quite a while.
The first time it took him 3 months to pay the bill, it was only about $300. Now this time it's almost $800 and he hasn't paid it. It has been 2 months and counting so I cut him off until he pays it.
He started leaving last minute stuff on my machine all the time and leaving messages that it had to get done right away, yada, yada, yada.... Now I'm screwed because he hasn't paid the bill. I finally put new ID numbers into the dictation system so he couldn't dictate on it. There are people out there who can't afford office staff and won't pay you either !!
Yeah, yeah, that should be "your work..."
You know -- I'm free to work for however
many companies I want.
If I made $50K a month from 5 companies and you only make but $500 from 1 company -- that's my reward for being resourceful, for working hard, for doing the work that is offered when it is offered.
Nice thing about this country is you are free -- free to be as rich as you want to be or as poor as you want to be!! I love it!!
A way to get work done for free
I actually had 1 company ask me what my specialties were and then send me a file dictated the same day in one of my specialties with a note telling me to transcribe it as quickly as possible. That one really made me think she just wanted work done for free.
maybe they were trying to get free work
out of you. Some companies do that, especially unreputable ones. Good for you.
I recently applied for a job and they hired me after reviewing my resume and a short telephone interview. No tests. I was QA for about a week and a half, which I guess is their testing period, but I got paid for it. Can't beat that.
Work for Free
I'm telling you, DON'T WORK FOR TOTH. They will s c a m you out of $130 or more before you even start to work, as they charge you this ridiculous fee just to set up your computer. Believe me, there aren't too many companies out there, at least in the 11 years that I have been doing this, that charge you to set up your computer, and if they do, it's usually only $30 to $50.
Don't stoop to their level. They have no regard for their MTs, and they live beyond their means in a big house, with a mortgage that is about 5 times the average mortgage, and their car payments are about 3 times the average car payment. I know them personally, and they're not good people.
Wait until after the holidays. This time of year it slows down, as doctors take vacation, etc. It is usually slow this time of year. Things break usually in February.
Yeah! Who do you work for!?!?! :)

Offer to do the work for free. You have not done something that has not been done before.

It's a free country. She can work where she wants UNLESS..SM
If there's some kind of contract that says she can't work anywhere else, then that might be a problem. Otherwise I just can't see anything legally wrong with it unless it can be proved she's sharing private information. I agree - I'd stay out of it completely.
No, you are not free to work for Spheris and MQ and

Yeah, and if you work for a hospital and say

Yeah, I'd prefer US work for sure, just not sure if its possible. NM
Yeah, work for $5/ hr and keep your mouth
?
Yeah, but does your company allow you to come in and work whenever you want?
I would love to work for a company that offers employee status, offers benefits, and will allow me to work whenever I please, just coming and going whenever suits me. The only companies I know that hire employees require a set schedule and require you to be at your desk working during your shift. This is why I am still an IC without benefits. I cannot commit to the same schedule every day.
yeah, I keep firing myself but I keep showing up for work the next day.
:P
And if you want to give your labor away for free, you will always have plenty of work. nm

Does anyone know of a good free antivirus software that will work with -sm

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
test
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!

TEST
I did a 3 EPT's all were positive with lines that were hard to read and yes the lines took a few minutes to show and a blood test at the doctors office which confirmed, by the time you spend money on pregnancy tests you can go to your doctor and pay a 10.00 copay and get a result... just an idea !!! I'm officially 7 weeks !!!!!
Probably a different test.
AAMT likely won't flunk many of them. They wouldn't want to scare away the hordes of potential buyers of their BOS and CMT certification.
Who can take CMT test?
I am just curious if I live in Canada, would I be allowed to take the CMT test ? or is it just strictly for american MT's? Would it benefit me as a IC ?
Tanks
CMT self-test
I just took the 60-question self-assessment test. A passing grade is 51/60. After 16 years of acute care experience, I got 43/60 correct. That blows my mind!
I'm asking myself 'who needs this' ???
