no I'm not first, he tells me so too
 My fiance' has informed me many times that his kids will always be first: kids first, me second. He's been raising them alone for 2 years now so they really take a toll on him (therefore US) emotionally, financially, even physically because his son is mentally handicapped and his daughter is extremely lazy and spoiled...so he is constantly cleaning up messes, doing unneccessary laundry, dishes, etc. (Could start a whole topic on that alone.) I have no kids, never been married. I love his kids but I can't say I'd give my life for them or anything. In fact, the more I explore our relationship I seriously doubt I will marry this man. Already he speaks of providing for them with me providing for myself and marriage is a joint effort. I resent the idea of furnishing a spoiled lifestyle for two kids who are not biologically mine. He's already mentioned that he'd provide for the kids & money I make could be "our" money. Well that amounts to me supporting the family, in my opinion....for what he buys the kids could also be used for paying bills, groceries, etc. Sigh, I think I deserve better...a better life than this.
Exactly right. If no one tells you, you won't know.

I don't think there is anything that tells you
how much RAM any particular process uses. If you have less than 1056 you don't have enough to be leaving a lot of programs open.
You can run a defrag and that might free up some stuff if you haven't done it in a while. Running a defrag doesn't allow you to do anything else on your computer though. I run it when I'm through for the night.
You can do an Msconfig and see if you have hidden programs running in the background and you can disable them from loading on startup.
Something Tells Me That -
Who tells everyone how fantastic their employer is, yet refuses to divulge the name should anyone ask because you fear they'll take your job.
Am I right?
Thought so.
I don't worry about those types of things. I'm secure enough in my skill and knowledge that I'm willing to share info with and help any MT who needs it.
Life's too short for such paranoid delusions.
Maybe just a letter that tells her how much you
appreciate her and everything she's done for you, how much you love her, et cetera. I would much rather have something like that from my children than a gift. Gifts are nice, too, but sometimes something from the heart just means so much more.
I like her. She tells the TRUTH, IMO. nm

Do you believe that story. That is what they told her to say. MQ tells everyone what to say to get
what they want. You would not believe the lines I have heard from my office. I have asolutely no respect for these people. They lie through their teeth for MQ. MQ is hiring because they want to have a very short TAT and try to keep the accounts they have and then a lot of people quit because they dont have work and have tons of backups and make no money in them. Everything MQ does is for them and not the MT. You are just along for the ride.
Yes, but only if tells me to sleep all day or eat ice cream.

Thanks. That tells me a lot about why my line count..sm
seems so much lower than I feel it should be since I do about the same amount of work and probably more now, but can not seem to make 1000 lpd.
He tells me he loves me all the time, and not
only does he tell me, he shows me. He isn't romantic at all, but he does little things all the time that shows he is thinking of me.
He likes to share new experiences with me, he enjoys going to craft shows with. He isn't particularly fond of working in the yard, but he knows how much I enjoy it and he spends hours working in the yard, even when I'm not working with him.
He cooks and helps around the house (usually without grumbling). I could serve him burnt toast for supper and he would thank me for a good meal.
He overlooks my faults.

Nice rant, but nobody tells me what to charge. nm

It is where the doctor tells you to "pull forward" SM
something from the patient's last visit. For example, he will say pull forward my problem list, medications, and allergies from job # whatever and you will go back and copy and paste that into the patient's new report. Sometimes they will make changes and sometimes they won't. I didn't know what it was until 2 years ago when I started an account that did it.
Don't like the part where doc's office tells you not to tell her. They should be upfront and
letting her know they approached you and not the other way... I would not trust them... they could drop you just as quickly down the line and she might not hire you back.....
I love Judge Judy. She tells it

What kind of retirement tells you how much you can earn?
I will start drawing from a pension plan this April - I have absolutely nothing saying I can or cannot make X amount of dollars a month. How did you get a retirement that tells you what you can make? This sounds strange to me.
common sense tells me as an IC no takes are taken ouf and if ----
that is true about owing CA taxes - you would pay them the same way you handle Federal and the state you live in.
They are not to take ANYTHING out unless you are an SE or full out employee. ICs, no.
Sense of humor, tells you "good job!" on the hard ones... nm
Good for you. My brother is a sheriff. He tells me things I can't believe! nm

In that case you have to do what your lead tells you, but I would have never even asked my superviso
I would have just transcribed it and moved on. The only thing is, the x-ray is possibly not consistent with the rest of the medical record.
Here's one site that tells you how you can dual boot Vista and XP.

Hillbilly site even tells you how to make your own sanitary pads! (sm)
Okay, after posting before how impressed I was with the websites, I went back and started reading again....so much info! They even tell you how to make your own sanitary pads! I don't think I'll be doing this, but I have to say I am loving the cheap, easy recipes. There are so many that sound really good! Okay, I'm going back to read more now, but the sanitary pad section just threw me for a loop and I had to come back and share! Really is very good information though, all kidding aside.
The help file tells you how to create additional dictionaries and, yes, they do get full. nm

Per my physician....
"All the antibiotics in the world will not clear up your sinus problems because you need to dry your sinus passages out." Get those little red Sudafed tablets and take the maximum dosage for several days. Also, try avoiding dairy products to see if that's a trigger. I can't even eat Ranch, mayonnaise or gooey cheese anymore because it triggers postnasal drip with that irritated ticklish throat and cough.
This is a physician saying this
The patient was tooken to the operating room. OMG, please keep me from screaming!! Where did you go to school, or did you finish?
Get another physician

EMR physician
I need quick advise. I worked for 4 physicians, one used EMR (partially) the others still use tapes. The EMR physician does not like to read his dictation and the three mouse clicks to sign his documents is too much. The physician has a high school graduate opening up the notes, reading them, editing them at her discretion and then SIGNING them. I informed them that to the best of my knowledge this was 100% illegal but they are still doing it. I have been doing this for some time, but did not think the rules had changed.
lie detector tests too huh busy. just to see if everyone tells the truth about credentials and goal
I think they should check your medical and psychiatriac records too and see what type of medications you may be prescribed. Maybe they could interview your neighbors and family to see if you have a history or lying or fabricating, delusions of grandeur, bipolar or just plain character flaws. I have noted that on these boards sometimes people tend to fabricate. hahaha. bwaaaaaaahaaaaaaa
Check it all out before you can get a job working at home. I mean the pay is worth it to go through all the hoops and if you are exposed as a deviant too bad. No sense it taking ridiculous risks for .8 cents per line doiing medical transcription when you can ship it to India for way cheaper to all those good souls who don't have any vices.
see what I mean? LOL ... physical not physician...

I saw an xray the physician had
that showed a Gator-Aid bottle up this guy's rectum. The wife wanted to know if he had accidentally sat down on it. He had to have it surgically removed. And then again, there is the one I typed on where the person was an alcoholic, had drank dog shampoo and when arriving at the ER was blowing all kinds of bubbles.
Physician Websites
Here are a couple good ones:
www.healthgrades.com
www.doctorpricing.com
The physician put his comment in
quotes and it should have been transcribed. I would get more offended about incorrect dosing of meds you hear in reports if I had the option to pick my battles, but the fact is, you are a Transcriptionist who is being paid to transcribe what the physician says. You really have to leave your personal stuff out of it. And, if you are the patient, and you are crass enough to be so rude and foul then you deserve to see it in black and white.
This sounds like an ad placed by a physician's
I cold called thinking they may consider an at-home MT, which yes they would be fine with, but they thought event $1.00 per page was pricey since the in-house MT could easily type 20 reports an hour, so they were doing the math. They figured by my charging per line that I would make way too much. Of course, I told that person very politely that I would work for no less than $3.00 per page if that's how they were looking at it and that I charge for production. So maybe this office expected the same thing your hospital does. However, if you type 3 MRI reports, then you're done for with the expectation of 20-25 reports per hour. All I can say is the hospital advertising this way must have a lot of normals and only perform plain x-rays and not any kind of special procedures or MRI/CT.
A physician shared this one
with me...
The patient was in a cute dress... (medical Transcriptionist error....)
Physician Letter
Opinions on this please: Most of my physicians dictate where they would like new paragraphs to start in their letters to other docs. However, I'm just starting with a new person and she didn't specify. She told where she would like periods, quotations, etc. but she never even once dictated that there should be a new paragraph.
I'm tempted to just put the breaks where they seem correct, but I'm not sure if that's the right thing to do.
Any suggestions?
Physician Finder - a useful one
you can search using different criterias, might be helpful for u ppl
use the link below
http://doctor.webmd.com/
Try the AMA Physician Finder
You can do a "sounds like" search by state, and by specialty. Somewhat tedious, but you can generally find them when all else fails.
Here's the link:

Exactly why I quit using my last physician.
I would wait close to an hour in the waiting room only to feel ignored once I got into the exam room. My doctor spent more time on the computer than he did with my exam. I finally got tired of this and changed doctors.
How do you know the physician hasn't
reported it. No, I do not believe it is our place to do so.
are you sure the physician HASNT sm
reported it? I don't think (I am quite sure) that our scope of duties does NOT involve any of that. Would be real tempting to report though wouldn't it?
The site tells me to change an index.html code to access. Dunno what that is??? nm

That only tells the grammar checker to flag spaces. Word does not auto space.
