Not the IC you've contracted to transcribe 500 lines per day.  What needs to be in place is another IC to pick up the slack when your contractor is in need of some help.  That is not fair to just say that a contractor has no say in whether or not he or she chooses to do the work day in and day out.  Cut me a break here.  By the way, clueless is hardly what I am.  I am very successful and the reason is because I am accountable for my own work.  I have my own clients that I service and I do not rely on contractors to do MY WORK.  If I did contract work out, I would make sure I could do it if they couldn't.  Now if I have employees, then they'd be made to comply or they wouldn't have a job. 

Is finding the job that gives you everything you want:
1.  Good line rate.
2.  Benefits (all types, if you want/need them).
3.  Freedom to work the hours you want.

In the final analysis, you might have to relinquish one to get the other two. Sort of like the old days of dealing with clients:
Quality - Turn Around - Price
Pick Two!!!

I had a similar situation a few years ago.  I paid and the ins. co. paid, dentist kept both payments.  After 3 phone calls to the office, no money.  So, I wrote a letter to the dentist, put PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL on the envelope, put a cc to the state dept of insurance at the bottom of the letter (dept of ins. scares them more than the AMA (if dealing with MDs) or American Dental Association). 

Got my money 2 days later.

my son to have his wisdom teeth removed.  Charged us $75.00 for the consult.  I didn't like the oral surgeon and his office staff were very standoffish can I did not make an appointment with him for surgery, but with another oral surgeon.   I had to pay the $75.00 up front - no problem, but they filed the insurance with the money coming to them.  It has been 5 weeks now since they received payment and I have called twice asking for a refund.  They told me the insurance company had 90 days to come back and ask for the money, but I PAID upfront so what difference does that make, they aren't out anything and they have $52.00 of MY money on top of the $75.00.   They said they would issue a check next week, but is what they told me 2 weeks ago.  It isn't a lot of money, it is the principle of the thing.

Went to another oral surgeon and they didn't charge me anything for the consult and the amount I have to pay upfront is $300.00 less than what the other office quoted me.  

I need a some good dental/oral surgery reference books.  These books would have to include also the names of dental instruments and how they are most often packaged together and what the names of the packs are.

Can somebody help me with some links to some good books that would not only include traditional reference material but also the additional information I am needing?

Thanks, Anne
