saw that word on google
I saw that a lot on Google when I was looking. I will listen again. thanks.
It's Weck-cel. A word of caution about google....
It's only correct IF you spell the word correctly. It's always best to refer to a medical reference book, such as Stedman's, in cases like this.
Thank you, could not find it in any of my word books or Google

Macro to Search Google from Microsoft Word?
I found one on the net, but when I pasted it in, it would not work.
My version of Word is Word 97. Thanks.
Google MS Word, delete autocorrect entries

Google "Miscrosoft Word 2003" (use quote marks)

If you have won something already, you cannot enter any others, is that correct?
Try just entering part of the last name sm
and the first letter of the first name.
Some accounts do have glitches and yours might be one.
New MTs entering this profession
I don't think it is so much about MTs being all for themselves.
Virtually every newbie needs a great deal of QA support. It is costly. The first urgency of this field is turn-around-time. Slowing down TAT because all of your reports have to be QA'd costs. Having to stop and give you feedback so you don't continue in the same path slows QA down ... again, TAT suffers and this costs. Newbie work needs the QA because quality is the 2nd urgency of this business.
So, it's not your coworkers fault. Not really the MT service companies' fault either. This is the nature of this very competitive business.
It's always better for newbies to go to work inhouse in a hospital and get their experience before working from home. You have to be really self-sufficient to work from home and make it profitable for both yourself and your employer.
Re-entering the MT Field
After being out of MT for 4.5 years I have recently returned. I'm having a hard time finding the right fit. The biggest problem I'm seeing is everybody seems to be requiring headers for reports and then each report put in a separate document, due to the new electronic record. I find that this slows me way, way down. Maybe I'll eventually get used to it, but I sure do miss the days of one document for doctor's day's work. There are so many procedural details that I can't just sit and transcribe. I've also run into very poor voice file sound quality.
I worked in the field for 14 years and never had major problems adjusting to new accounts. Maybe my time is just over for this type of work.
I know technology has definitely made MT easier in some ways, but in others, it seems like such hassle. Does anyone else have problems with headers and all these separate documents? Does the field seem to be worse now than 5 years ago?
If doctors are entering into it, SM
I suspect maybe you really should get out and take a calm undemanding 9-5 type job. Perhaps you could come back later when things in this industry stabilize.
For now, though, this field is in technology- and economics-driven flux, with uncertainty the norm. What is certain is that this is going to continue for some time, during which some people will end up leaving the field altogether even as others adjust to what's thrown at them, retraining or continuing their education as needed.
If you took a second job, I'm afraid the problems you're having with this sistuation with one company would just become the same problems doubled. And let's face it, part-timers are not usually more valued employees than full-timers. Best wishes.
Of course, it is only as good as the people entering the data...
Also, when computers make mistakes, or are hit with malicious worms or viruses, etc., it could be devastating, could it not?
Also, more and more lately we are noticing actually a lot more mistakes with things that are automated, and once there is an error, it has been extremely difficult to get it corrected. Such as - errors at the DMV (?), errors in our car computer (? - again, it is always a mystery when trying to get things fixed), lets see, then there is the mixup with our phone number that belongs to about three other people (still not fixed because we are told it is all done on computer (?)...
Also, who takes responsiblity when there is an error, because with everything automated, there seems to be little or no accountability - you can hardly get through to real people in a lot of businesses today.
The idea of technology is awesome; however human error will always have an affect...
my humble opinion and just an observation. most information still has to be entered by humans. perhaps we will be obsolete.
Word Board=Help Board. NOT a do the math = figure it out yourself=GOOGLE IT!
Yes, the page is clear about entering. If you make a donation,
you are entered to potentially win the prize that you chose in the drop down list. You can enter as many times as you wish for any of the prizes listed, but there is only one winner per prize giveaway.
Finally steady money. whew. Applied and got job at Dept of Law Enforcement entering
They started me way above minimum because of my experience. I was shocked and happy all at the same time.
And of course I'm esctatic to not be wondering how much money I would be getting each pay check. Working on production in transcription now is like playing Russian Roulette.
There's good benes where I going, retirement, sick days, no games with my health insurance. I should have done this long ago.
Scarry!!! Docs and nurses entering drugs and dosages into online charts. (sm)
Most of my docs cannot spell medical terms. They can't pronounce or spell drugs. The nurses are for the most part useless - no ARNP I ever asked could help me with a medical term.
I just spoke to my HMO. They are now offering personal Online-charts showing
visits, tests, immunizations, etc. of what you personally had done.
I asked EXACTLY HOW DOES THIS INFO GET INTO THE SYSTEM, at what point?
The woman said: It is input by the doc and the nurses.
I shuttered!
There goes the end of quality health care as we used to know it!
Have you noticed how many hits the ads have?
x
So, when the poop hits the fan..sm
who is going to get to take the flak for this mistake... besides the patient?
36 hits doesn't necessarily mean anything.
If there were 30,000 hits on Google, I'd think it legitimate. However, 30 hits could mean that there are 30 misspellings or 30 idiots out there making up words. Or it could be a real word. Normo is a combining form; however, reflexic is not in any of my dictionaries. (Merriam, Taber's, Dorland's, Stedman's) If the account's verbatim, use it. Otherwise, tag it.
Better Business Bureau BBB.ORG 39 hits of
Ameriplan with UNSATISFACTORY ratings. Do more investigating before you waste your money on an MLM scam, and please don't tell me to check it out because I already did two years ago.
THE HITS KEEP COMING-NEW PROBLEM AS OF OCT 1ST
You probably received an email from your supervisor about full time meaning you HAVE TO produce for 40 hours a week to be full time. That means, if you take any time off without pay (because you only have 80 hours of PTO a year) for ANYTHING (sick, funeral, whatever the emergency), you will no longer be a full time employee, which means no benefits at all.
The Eagles- Greatest Hits. nm

If a post gets so many hits on it, it gets the flame.
Not sure what the magic number is though.
IMO - no. If he hits you once, he will hit you again. It will not matter what religion you believe

Good way to drum up hits. nm

Now that hits the nail on the head!
You said that right.
'MEDICAL TRANCRIPTION SUCKS."
It is the only job I have ever had where I actually do 25% of my work for FREE because my employer SAID IT WAS MY JOB.
And every day these companies are more creative looking for new and improved ways to bleed the MTs for more of our hard earned money.
And that IS the reality of this business.
Yep, google has it goin on... I really like the google earth...
Have you tried Google earth? You can type in any address, street, city, state, country, etc. and it will zoom in and show the area and then you can hit the + button and zoom right in and see the exact house, building, etc. that you are looking for.
Mainly Google; I google the known words in the phrase (sm)
That's my most frequent tactic if I don't find the word in my word books. I'll play with leaving certain words out and adding them in, in various combinations, to try to get a hit that has a word which sounds like my blank. If I get a hit, I'll Google WITH that word, and see what hits I get, and what their source is (i.e.,checking the sources out for reliability). When I say 5 sites or searches, I mean I don't often try more than 5 different combinations without a serious hit. If I get a hit, then I will spend a little more time checking that out before I give up.
If it's a drug name, I use RxList, or more frequently the Drugs.com website. Since they redid RxList, I haven't found one that has quite as good a wildcard search, but Drugs.com works okay most of the time.
If it's a place name (like when they give names of outlying outreach clinics and etc.) I'll use Mapquest and look up the city my hospital is in, then "pan out" and look at the outlying towns.
Hope that's what you're looking for. I do have bookmarks, but I find that even the ones I think I'll visit again, I waste more time doing that than with an intelligent google search. An example is the time I was looking for "banana bag." The only place I managed to find it with a degree of reliability was on a nurses' message board. I've found quite a bit sometimes on the various specialty message boards out there, but I think the quickest way to locate that is through a search engine rather than bookmarking each individual site and trying to figure out which ones to search for a particular term.
It's a good way to get lots of hits on your post!

Someone answered on this below, that thing pops up when it has had a lot of hits -see the # of views
probably set for 100 or something like that. So when it have however many views, the little fire springs up indicating is "hot" and has been looked at a lot!
Breaking news. Bush directs H. Rita to Texas in order to curb illegal Mexicans from entering border.
LOL
Just went out and bout The Band greatest hits and listening right now to the Weight.
Oh yeah baby, just 12 more hits and I get FLAMED! Come on' give me FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nm

well wait til your daughter hits someone. You will lose everything in that civil lawsuit.
I mean, how ridiculous is that. Letting a 14.5 year old to get more experience. Sheesh. Let her drive at 16 with you and let her drive alone at 18, if you want her to have more experience. There's a reason why the driving age is 16, not 14.
Monsoon FINALLY hits Arizona. Microburst winds & rain.

Daughter is vegetarian. I cook a turkey and she hits the side dishes. (sm)
We do pretty well with this. I just make sure I have some of her favorites so she still feels like she is having a feast.
I saw a picture someone made of a "turkey" they had formed out of raw veggies. I think the basic form was one of those rounded shaped loaves of bread and the veggies were on toothpicks. the head and some tail feathers were made from construction paper. It seemed like an entertaining idea especially if you had small children around.
Keep contact at a minimum. Self doubt hits and it is when we tend to fall back into the web
Good luck to you. Expect highs and lows. Best to get professional counseling so they remind you of who you are and where you want to be when he tries to convince you that you are crazy.
Thank you, Google God. My google icon is

I would suggest
giving them a call. I would imagine they would hire PT whether they're advertising for PT or not. I work PT but do as many or more lines than is required for FT. I know they bend over backwards for me in every respect and I doubt I'm treated any differently than their other MTs. I think you'll find them to be incredibly nice folks even AFTER you're hired!  And, believe it or not, they do know how to coordinate hiring and work flow so it's unlikely you'd ever run out of work, might be ASKED to work extra but that with more than adequate compensation IMHO.
I can suggest one
AT&T CallVantage. - You can make all LD calls (including with your dictation system) directly through your DSL line. I've never been billed more than $35/month (I think that includes taxes), and I'm on close to 10,000 minutes a month.
So how to you suggest they do it then?
Unfortunately they have to keep track of who is getting these cards and they have to make sure there is no fraud going on, so they have to make some stipulations.
I think it's a great effort regardless!
Can I suggest something?
Two lines of thinking, actually:
1) Please consult a behavior specialist. There is an underlying reason or reasons for his behavior. It's much healthier for him to find out the causes for his behavior and design a treatment plan and work for changes rather than to just cover them up by changing the environment.
2) Please consider going against what seems to be the attitude today: Everything made-to-order. What I mean is that children learn quickly what is acceptable and what isn't. If we constantly are taking our children out of normal social situations and putting them in "specialized", "personalized", "made-to-order" situations they will never learn how to cope and get along with others. They will also be robbed of the joy of learning community-mindedness. Not teaching them how to get along in life is hateful. Not easy skills to learn as a teen, as an adult.
Just my opinion. I faced behavioral problems with mine when they were young. I know how it feels. My best wishes for you.
I would suggest..
going to a psychiatrist. I also suffer from anxiety and depresson. I take a combination of Wellbutrin and Neurontin, and this seems to work very well. I have had a hard time finding any medicine that works for me. I still have episodes sometimes, but they could prescribe you Xanax for those in between momements. I don't take Xanax though, just the Neurontin for the anxiety.
What do you suggest
How much do you guys charge for a late fee when invoices aren't paid in time?
My terms are invoicing the first of each month and payment due within ten days.
I've decided to impose a late fee since I'm having a horrible time getting paid. What do you recommend? Thanks.
Thanks! What do you suggest then?
I would suggest
investing in the Stedman's Medical Terms and Phrases book. It is kind of spendy, but it sure is a nice comprehensive reference book. Definately worth it..
