VENTING


Posted: Oct 17, 2013

Start rant: I am thankful to have a job, BUT why can't doctors have there stuff in order before they start dictating???? The more they sit and go through charts and say "uh uh uh uh uh uh uh" is money out of my pocket and wasting my time. If it was once in a while, fine, but sometimes it is just too often. They would be having fits if transcriptionists were wasting their time!!! :End rant.;

I guess I should proof before I post.... - CEOKP

Sometimes it's like they have no clue about anything related to the patient, their condition, the reason for their visit, or how they treated them. It's like they picked up the file blind and are trying to fumble their way through the report. This has always been a pet peeve of mine, even when I was paid hourly. It's just a ridiculous waste of time for the MTs and, now that we're pretty much all on production pay, all I can see are dollar signs flying out of the window while Dr. Mass Confusion sits there in dead silence trying to figure out what to dictate. Sometimes I sit here and roll my eyes so hard that it probably looks like I'm having a seizure.

Okay, end of my rant, too, LOL!

Happy to know I'm not alone :D - CEOKP

After I type a whole paragraph the doctor will say "no, not that, go back and change it to "he feels fine".

Venting .....Apr 27, 2010
After watching all of the publicity about the Lane Bryant commercial, which personally I thought was a LOT less revealing than the Victoria Secret commercials, I just have to say that it absolutely ticks me off to look for a dress or an outfit.  Okay, grant you, I am FAT, not hugely so but still, I accept it, I am fat, working on it, but still fat.  Recently I have been trying to find a dress to wear to a wedding and I have to make sure that I take my blood pressure meds before I do (y ...

Just Venting. Nothing More.Jul 30, 2010
I want to start by saying I am very grateful that my disability claim was approved the first time.  I am close to retirement age, so that made it a bit easier.  I could only work part-time due to my physical condition, and therefore was paying my own health insurance.  That amounted to $400.00 per month.    Now, since I am on disability,  I qualify for an income based limited health plan with Highmark Blue Shield which runs $130.00 per month.  That, of course, ...

Not my words, just sharing it from another forum. Your thoughts about it? ====================== I'm venting, but the truth is this.I carry a pistol in my purse, everywhere I go.

I will not be slaughtered, or stand by helpless while others are slaughtered.I will go to jail before I allow this to be changed. ======================== ...

I was let go from IMedX for not flexing due to low work on day shift.  Sorry, but I can't flex late night/overnight hours due to having a 4-year-old.  She comes first.  Transtech was understanding but this IMedX bunch is ruthless.  I have a new IC part-time job now with plenty of work during the day, M-F w/rotating weekends, where I'm treated fairly and the pay is good.  This is to pay bills and help with tuition.  I just registered for my first class sinc ...
