Dummy invoice on its way. :) (nm)
Just search a little further, ok, so you don't really look like a dummy?

You don't sound like a dummy.
How the network is set up will depend on the building configuration. Some networks are wireless and others are connected via cables. If you're going with an inside IT person, they will choose how to do this. If you're going with an outside contractor, you can ask for estimates and go with what fits your budget.
The main thing you need to know is that your network must be secure and that there must be one hard drive that can be shared by all computers on the network.

Hey! My Mom's a manager at K-Mart! She's no dummy.
Retail management is something to be proud of as well, especially after having Martha Stewart hose her out of her retirement, corporate HQ trying to get rid of the older, higher paid employees in favor of youngsters willing to work for peanuts, and WalMart and Sam's trying to shut them down.
please help a math-dummy calculate
trying to figure cell phone plans (pay as you go type)....do i divide minutes by dollars, or dollars by minutes to get the cents per minute...
and more so, how does one know which way to divide other things of similar nature (not necessarily dollars vs minutes).
mega thanks .
Can you run a dummy invoice and email it? We would like to see if there is a problem & if so
Email attachment to either webmaster@mtstars.com or admin@mtstars.com

Dummy, don't feel bad. I've been doing this for 16 years

How long does your battery last?
Mine only lasts for two hours and then takes about 45 minutes to recharge to 100% when I plug it in to electric.
How often do you have to change the battery sm
in the receiver? The specs say operating time is greater than 4 hours (receiver). Does this mean you would have to change the battery every day?
I use a APC ES-500 with 30 minute battery time - sm
I think it was about $60. Best money I ever spent. We don't have a lot of power outages here but every now and them have a lot of flickers which noramlly would kick off the computer. I no longer have to worry about that, and lost work if I had not saved recently.
Start with a battery change.
This really sounds like a battery problem. They start wearing out and the sound drops off well before they die.
Just change the battery. Don't worry about being thought weird . . . you can't do good work on his reports if you can't hear them. It's ok for you to let him know that something is wrong.
If a new battery doesn't help, try a new tape. Old tapes get icky.

My UPS has an estimated battery time of 19 minutes
which gives me enough power to finish the report I'm working on and shut down my computer correctly.

Change your battery. Also, some antivirus, screen savers,
and system utilities can cause computer time clock loss.

Yup, mine did that a few years ago. New battery fixed it right up. Be sure to write down your setti

Mouse included in the package lit up right after battery insertion. No on lights
come on when the batteries are inserted and power button doesn't do a thing. Power isn't being transmitted to keyboard for some reason.
A laptop, wireless router or a card from say Sprint, good battery
you could work anywhere. Being wireless has great benefits, say if you are in the hospital, dying, why you could make a few bucks to pay for the funeral.
ok.... Here it is... in full and complete.

Yep, I'm a complete tool like that.
I thought as I aged I would grow cojones...the problem is, we moved up here and it's just so far away from friends and family, that when company does show up, planned or not, it is truly a blessing. I am incredibly lonely up here, and as I work out of a home in a land where I don't know ANYONE except my immediate neighbors, friends have not been easy to make and, well, you can see why I have so many postings on this board.
So, I guess I'll continue to treat people as I wish to be treated...with a big hug, a warm smile, and a "I'm so glad you were able to stop by"...and then stress out and drink black coffee laced with 1/4 pound of suger catching up on work while they sleep soundly. I only got this one life, so I might as well try to squeeze everything into it with at least a calm and cool outer appearance ;-)
EMR just means they are going to complete
EMR is electronic medical record, meaning it's all on the computer, without a paper record. Why does that eliminate the need for a transcriptionist?
Complete was of my time...
But I had entered a webpage trying to land accounts. No luck WSE! IMO. Good luck.
Wow, the complete series!! (sm)
You'll be busy for days! I'd love it too, cause there are some I missed, but I figured I will rent one season at a time, or buy it if I can find a good price. Never shopped on ebay before. Happy viewing!!
Once you complete your training
you will have a an idea of what types of reports you have an affinity for. Some folks like acute care, others clinic work. There are those that adore radiology and detest long ops or sub-speciality consults that may require a lot of research and verification. Others feel just the opposite.
As far as software, I am not really sure what you mean. There are different requirements for different companies as far as platforms, etc. Every one has its pros and cons.
As for as reference materials, some folks like electronic references and some prefer books. Others use reliable web resources.
You will want to avoid any convoluted line counting methods to assure fair compensation and be aware of exactly what you do and don't get compensated for, but that kind of falls into the getting ripped off category.

Before he turned into a complete idiot.
I haven't seen any of his recent movies since he split with Nicole Kidman. Of course, I saw "Days of Thunder" and "Far and Away". Read the whole post, then try taking an English comprehension course. Troll.
Boy I cannot complete a sentence my posts look like VR
Here's one veggie family, complete
with grandkids now. All 8 of us. I have a Tofurkey and also an Unturkey in the freezer for Thanksgiving. Also, my pet turkey Bubba just died last week of natural causes, he weighed about 50 pounds. His wife, Bubette, is still alive and well. I always gave them extra treats on Thansgiving.

I would think complete darkness would be a bad idea.
Funny you should mention this because last night my son walked into the living room and turned off the light while I was working. He said he wanted it off while watching TV.
At first I felt like I couldn't see anything. After a few minutes, my eyes adjusted, but I had to turn the light back on because the brightness of the monitor compared to the darkness of the rest of the room actually began to hurt my eyes.
I guess it doesn't bother some, but I would think it wouldn't be very good for your eyes over time.
I do believe the JC is only concerned with files being complete as in
up to date - not gramatically correct.
ASR isn't successful? Its like 100% a complete success! Are you kidding?
MQs speech rec technology is sweeping the industry. Just run a Google, dear poster, and get your facts even remotely straight before you post! Radiology speech rec is a HUGE success, as well as their acute care. What planet have you been living on? It needed perfecting, and, well....Its nearly there! Post facts if you must - much better than completely false ignorant claims.
Well, some accounts call for complete sentences for all. sm
Other accounts call for no abbreviations, spell out everything. So, if the account specifics call for it, the MT is to do it. It is not always the MT or MTSO.
No, I'm afraid I'm a complete and utter dork...
And the really dorky thing is - I graduated from hi school in 1976 - I'm not even IN the "60's generation." If loving the Beatles makes me a dork, then, well - just call me Captain Dork!

VR and ASR will never EVER replace MTs
I have done reports, in fact one just now, where the dictator jumped three or four different times from the hospital course to the diagnosis. How is a voice rec machine going to pick this up and put it in the right format? Also, the other day I had a doc that dictated a surgery on both the left and right foot....although in the diagnosis it was the right foot only. I get docs who are confuses as to gender of patient, says he...she...he...then she through the report. And again, more than once a day, I get a doc who talks on the phone as loud as he is dictating. Won't the machines pick this up? What about period as opposed to the actual symbol period? I don't care what you say, we will not be replaced!!! Not possible.
Do a Replace.
Edit, Replace. Search for .(one space) and replace with .(two spaces) You can also write a macro to do this for you.
You may want to replace your

Why replace them?? Don't you know

i used to replace them
just as soon as a new edition came out. Now, am only updating my most used ones, which include the surgical book. i've been at this 30 yr, and do use the I/N for lots of research, but prefer the books, where i can make notes, highlight, etc. I find them more reliable and quick than the I/N in may circumstances.
EMR will replace some
some MTSO. Our local hospital here is using eRecord which allows the doctor to dictate into certain fields and requires in-house transcriptionist/secretary to go in and transcribe directly into EMR. However, at my old group of hospitals in prior state I lived the EMR we had incorporated DolbeySTAT into the EMR so it depends on the hospital
You have to be joking. That lady is a complete basket case.

I tell a complete stranger my whole life history practically.
I'm suddenly realizing that I have isolated myself and that I have no real friends and the only adult conversation I have is with my DH. While I love by DH dearly and he is my bestest friend, sometimes you need other conversations/relationships.
Yes, sort of. He isn't fast, but he is very careful and complete and polite ...
which can save time in the long run, especially when I'm typing mammograms.
The both offer a pretty complete line, but I do like the Sted's. nm

That Escription is even close to accurate is complete and total
A big ole lie on the part of anyone who says it's great or that 500 lph is possible. It's also possible that pigs can fly.
