Canada? When did Canada become a third world country?
.
I have one where the first time I heard him say
gallbladder attack, it sounded like wild bear attack . . . the patient did have a 10-day hospital stay, which is almost unheard of for a cholecystectomy these days due to insurance regulations, so it almost made sense . . . LOL
Never heard of it ... what time is it on and what network? Thx. nm
I can't think of NOT using it - I never heard of not running it. I do every time. nm

Maybe so. I hadn't heard it in a long time, but

From what I have heard about disability, the SSA always rejects the first time - sm
as standard procedure. I am sure in some circumstances they cannot as it is obvious the person needs it, but in your mom's case she probably (in their eyes) still work doing something. Get a lawyer who specializes in SS disability. They will make sure it goes through on try #2 providing you have the doctor records, etc. to prove your case. If she does not go to the doctor much you might have some trouble though. As for the house, I'd sue the guy, small claims court if need be, then you'd at least get back $5k and maybe you can get someone honest to fix it up. See if there are any services in your area that help disabled seniors, etc. in your area that maybe can help lessen the load on you. See if your mom can maybe start moving about more and maybe do her own shopping, it may take her a while but it will get her out and possibly help her feel better; find out from her doctor exactly what he/she thinks she is capable of physically and maybe she can help to start strengthening herself and in the long-term become more able to take care of herself without relying so heavily on you. I see no mention of your family (husband and son) and how they feel about all of this. Do they resent the time and money you put into your mom; do you get to see enough of your son and husband. Don't sacrifice your family for the sake of your mom; if you have nothing left at the end of the day for them, they cannot be feeling too happy about the situation eihter. As for the rest of your family, they just don't care and even if they do they see you taking care of everything so they don't feel the need (or want to) to do anything. Even if you stopped, I doubt they'd pick up the slack since only 1 of the 3 helps and that is under duress as it is. You need to take care of you first, then your family, then your mom.
You not only posted on this forum, but another forum asking for
advice, not once, but at least twice, panic stricken. If you didn't want the advice you shouldn't have asked and you surely shouldn't have come back her bashing people for their advice. We are not medical professionals. It could have just as easily been something serious and because of the lack of $$ you didn't go to the ER and you'd be singing a different song today.
Honestly that is the most intelligent thing I've heard from an MT co. in a long time. Completely
You have to be able to retain knowledge.
You have to know how to reserach effectively.
You have to be able to use deductive reasoning.
You have to have confidence in your decisions and not constantly "need assurance."
You have to be able to separate sounds in your head that are both internal and from multiple external forces.
Some of these can be taught, some are innate, some take years to develop, some either you got it or you don't.
Canada Day
I know this is late, but Happy Canada Day to you too!! :)
I wonder if she was from Canada. sm
Used to have a doc from Canada who talked like that. It was hilarious to see how it printed out from voice recognition.
Where in Canada was this??
Did you go to private school in the U.S.?

MQ has offices in Canada, have you tried them??
MT in Canada
There don't seem to be any large companies like in the States. It seems most jobs are in-house with the hospitals. I consider myself very lucky to have found steady work at home with a Canadian company.

You can email me privately if you want to. Thanks so much.

Hi Molly - I'm currently taking the Canscribe course and it is excellent. From everything that I've read they are the best school in Canada. I would certainly look into it further. The course is very thorough, well layed out and very user friendly! I'm pretty sure employers are happy to hire Canscribe graduates.
So where will the MDs run if both Canada and
So, the issue is because all the MDs in Canada left and came to the USA because they did not agree with the government run health care?
So if USA goes to the same thing, where will all the MDs run to? Don't they have the same thing in Europe, too?
I just don't understand. Will they all leave the profession? It is because they want more money than the government will pay?
It just all does not make sense to me. Reading this, I am more apt to blame the doctors than the government. They are the ones protesting the system and running away, all because they want more money.
Please tell me if I am understanding this wrong.
Maybe at the very least, we will get younger doctors getting into medicine for the right reasons and not so much for the big paycheck.
But I am probably understanding this whole thing wrong.
Thanks for your reply. I will probably read it again a couple times because it takes me a while to register things. Thanks.
HAPPY CANADA DAY TO ANY
OTHER CANADIAN MTS OUT THERE!!!!.
MT Companies in Canada
What part of Canada are you from?
Canada drugs
I used them. Did not seem to have any problems. I figure you do not hear of Canadians dropping dead left and right from using the medication. Saved some money.
Hello there Canada :) Here is an idea.
Spheris offers training for a price and then will place you in a position. They hire Canadian MTs.
offshoring to Canada sm
My supervisor said offshoring includes what MQ does which is "offshoring" to Canada. Are they saving money there?
$2.73 here on Vancouver Island, BC Canada
Its $1.05 a litre and with the conversion, about $2.70 a gallon. Yikes, when will it stop going up??
Ditto on that, just did a report on a guy from Canada who came to the U.S.
surgery....would have actually died if he had waited for the doc's in Canada to operate (obstructing adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder)...he'd been told he would have to wait 3-4 weeks to even get it dealt with in Canada...so it had the brains to come here to get it done....granted he's fighting with Canadian insurance now but at least he is alive.
Your welcome, Canada :) You snowbirds keep warm up there.

Enjoying the slaughter Canada?
They ought to ship a video of the baby seal slaughter with every piece of seal skin attire they sell.
And don't forget to catch a glimpse of the seal mothers going nearly insane with fear and pain as they watch their babies being clubbed to death in front of them.
Please write to the Canadian prime minister (or whatever they call the leader of that sick country) to express your outrage. That is, if you feel any at all.
Canada pharmacy recommendation
I've personally used this pharmacy in Canada by mail and they have been great.
I was wondering the same thing about Canada.....

I will take canada's health care in a nanosecond
Well, I gotta tell ya, I would love to have Canada's health care, as I dont have health care..You see, if you are an SE, MQ does not offer health care. So, universal health care through the govt, IMHO, is better than paying out of my pocket.
My experience was the opposite living in Canada.
I found their schoolwork to be remedial compared to what I learned in the U.S. In Canada, they used to have me work in the library and clean the teachers' lounge because the work didn't challenge me. In the U.S., I was able to take advanced and college prep classes so I didn't get bored with school.
Seeking home-based MT job from Canada!!!
Hello, I am seeking a full-time MT job from home (in Canada). I want to work for a great company that pays well. I also want my computer and all required supplies paid by the company. I will pay for high speed internet!! Where I reside, we have fibreoptic telephone lines - therefore it is the best place to do medical transcription, the quickest speed of voice data and the clearest in north america!! We also rarely have storms here! I live in New Brunswick, 1 hour for calais, Maine.
I have 5+ years of experience and I am also a coder trained in Toronto. HOpe to hear from you soon. Thanks!

How do you folks feel about work going to Canada?

Has anyone bought Rx drugs from Canada online? (sm)
Was your experience favorable? Were the drugs compatible with USA drugs. Allegra is an OTC in Canada and I can get it for 67 cents per pill as compared to $2.50 per pill in the USA. Lot of difference when you don’t have insurance!
In Canada, my relatives waited months for an

Many co. use Canadian MTs. There are also many accounts in Canada held by U.S. MTSOs

Scribes Data Canada Independent Contractors out there???
I have been working at home as an independent contractor for Scribes Data out of Ontario, Canada for the past three years and have loved working for them. I have worked my way to the top of the pay scale and am currently earning between $38-$40/hour. Recently I have been contacted twice by management asking me to consider becoming a full-time employee with benefits rather than an independent contractor. This would mean a dramatic decrease in pay... a $17,000/year base salary plus 60-70 cents/minute of dictation. For the last year I had been paid $1.60/minute of dictation, but just this past month they decreased that to $1.50/minute, stating that was more in line with their pay structure and that I would only be earing $1.60/minute on the radiology dictation I typed. And then a couple of weeks later they contacted me again statingn that I was no longer going to type any radiology dictation unless I was needed and then I would still only be paid the $1.50/minute.
This decrease in pay of 10 cents/minute does not really concern me, it just means I may have to work a littel longer than my normal 5 1/2 hours per day and I do not have a problem with that. My concern is that they are really going to push me to become an employee and just keep taking accounts away from me until I do just that.
Just wondering if there is anybody else out there who may be worried about the same thing.
Not many. A lot of Indians use Canada as a crutch to gain US business and
for processing. You'd probably do better at MTGab since it is a Canadian MT site.
A big reason is because offshore (India, etc.) have flooded Canada & try
to pass themselves off as "Canadians" to get transcription business in the US. It's really sad because good Canadian MTs ultimately get the shaft.
How would you like to go to Canada and be on a months-long waiting list
just to get a CT scan? Or cardiac bypass done? That is exactly what happens over there as we have friends over there who have given us first-hand accounts of their struggles with Canada's medical system. My daughter has shunted hydrocephalus. If I have any question about how she's acting, if she may be experiencing shunt failure, I take her in to her neurosurgeon and she is in for an MRI or CT immediately... that day. When she had a shunt failure a couple of years ago when she was 5, while we were out of town, she was taken to the emergency room, had a CT, had helicopter ride back to our home hospital 1-1/2 hours away, was in surgery, and home the next day. I would be scared to death to be living in another country.
I've bought Allegra from Canada on-line
sites for years and have never had a problem. I usually get the generic of Allergra. Try progressiverx.com. Prices are great!
It's not necessarily all good. India has invaded Canada in the MT business.
They set up shop and solicit business in the US claiming to be "Canadian". I've been solicited by several different people over the years trying to horn in on my business.
I WASN'T GUESSING. I HEARD WHAT I HEARD VERY CLEARLY.
I don't even agree with what QA said, but they are QA. Question them, and your out the door.
Is Terra Nova owned by a guy that lives on the border of Maine/Canada? - sm
If so, this guy is a snake. He was willing to pay $0.14/line for the Kaleida account just temporarily until he could get his lines set up to offshore. He told me that on the phone!!!
