Sahi Job

I want a great medical job for the future and am undecided what to do but would like it to pay good but yet not be on call all the time but then again I don’t want a job where I will be paying a lot for insurance because I don’t want to be sued. Please help me out!!!

Do not become a doctor. First, if doing it for the money you will be miserable. Second, there is no way around liability insurance. There are no specialties exempt from being sued (although obviously the types and severity of suits vary by specialty).

If pay and liability insurance are your main issues, then go into pharmacy or nursing. They pay quite well and pay a whole heck of a lot less in insurance. Although even here, if your main goal is loads of money, you will grow to hate your job.

I’ve made my decision and I want to be in a medical field as my career but I don’t know what. I’d like a career about health in the body system. There are many medical jobs that studies about body systems such as a doctor or nurse, but what else are there?

You have nursing assistant, medical assistant, medical office admin, health unit coordinator, physical/occupational therapist, dietitian, medical transcriptionist, and so much more.

My fiance has developed some health problems lately, and getting out of the house is getting hard on her. She doesn’t have health insurance and needs to come up with a job paying for it. We’ve considered work from home, but a lot of work from home opportunities are scams. I’ve heard that Medical Transcription is legit, but we don’t know where to start, or even how to tell the scams from the real thing. How does a person start from scratch to get into medical transcription?

You can look for jobs in medical transcription in a variety of ways. First, I have seen some listed on monster.com and careerbuilder.com, indeed.com, etc. You can also look in your local help wanted ads. Hospitals are another place to look. You can also look at medical transcription companies. MedQuist, Spheris, Amphion, etc.

Most medical transcriptionists do work from home. A little over 80% of them do. The department of labor has stats on the career: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos271.htm

As far as how someone starts to get into medical transcription from scratch, first you need training. Employers require that you have training before they will hire you. They even test your skills before they even look at your application. One would think that listening to a tape and typing what you hear would be easy but it is not. That is why training is required. Training can be done online or through a brick and mortar school. It can take from about 6 months to a year depending on how much time is devoted to working on it. Cost, that depends on who you go with. Cost can range from about $1500 to $5000. If you and your fiance decide to pursue this route, I provided a link to a school that trains medical transcriptionists online. It is a really good school and is one of the top school for medical transcription.

After you graduate, then you can look for a job via the methods I provided above or the school that I mentioned to you will assist you in your job search after you graduate.

If you have any other questions, you can email me. Good luck!

I was interested in learning to know more about working in a medical recruiting job. Its said something about a job recruiting doctors and such. What does it all mean? Can anyone provide more info on this subject?

I worked with a recruiter for a while, it’s basically 100% networking and building relationships with various hiring directors at hospitals and medical companies. You find out what positions they need to fill, then you find the people that fit those positions. Sometimes you get an upfront fee, sometimes you’re commissioned based on the first year’s salary of the employee they’re looking to hire.
Either way, it’s a very, very competitive field. There’s a lot of conversations about the topic at the forum I link to.

Millions of people all across the country are miserable in their jobs. They’re stressed and even burned out. Some are biding their time till retirement, hoping they won’t get laid off before then. And that’s if they’re lucky enough to have a job in the first place. So what would be the logical New Year’s resolution for most of them? Get a new and improved job.

And thanks to Pam Jonsson’s new “Great Job!” system, many of those unemployed and unhappily employed people can now not only find a job, but find a job they will actually enjoy.

What makes “Great Job! The Secret to Finding a Job You Love” different from all those other job-finding books on the market?

Most “normal” books start with making you record what you’ve been doing all along. Of course, what that will get you - and that’s if you’re lucky - is more of the same. Great Job! approaches looking for a job very differently.

Instead of starting with your official credentials, you’re asked to explore what you enjoy. You’re asked to look back over your past jobs and pin down exactly what you liked - and what you disliked - about each of them.

That will give you plenty of material to work with as you design your new, perfect job.

And “Great Job!” doesn’t just stop there. Next, armed with your information about what kind of job would make you happy, it guides you through doing your research as you go about finding your perfect job - online and offline.

Unlike those books that teach you how to submit your resume all over the place, Pam tells you to hold off on giving your resume to anyone. What you’ll get instead is the most thorough guide for how to tap into the hidden job market I’ve ever seen.

What’s included in this system? A comprehensive downloadable book that doubles as a workbook. A series of audio files which are an extensively annotated version of the ebook. And if you get the deluxe version of the program, you’ll also get an entire online course along with it. This course accompanies you as you do your research and follow the steps on the path to your perfect job, providing you with much additional helpful information and support.

In a nutshell, “Great Job!” is a unique system that helps people find jobs that are a perfect fit. And not just based on a few qualities that would fit in a resume, but in a much more comprehensive way. We’re talking perfect fit in terms of corporate culture, management personalities, the kind of job someone is expected to do. It’s a job that fits the person, not the other way round.

As I read it, parts of it reminded me of Barbara Sher’s “Wishcraft” and Richard Bolles’ “What Color Is Your Parachute,” but “Great Job!” goes far beyond those books. It’s a perfect combination of getting you to reach for the stars and of providing the actual step ladders that will help you get there.

Now you may wonder - isn’t that a lot to ask, especially at a time when people are worrying about lay-offs? Not at all. In times of economic pressure, employers are under a great deal of pressure too. Now more than ever, they need good employees. And if you think about it, employees who feel their job is a great fit for them are going to be more productive and dependable than those who just suffer through their miserable jobs day in and day out. This means happy employees are just the kind of employees their bosses need. So it’s a win-win for both sides.

One thing worth noting is that Great Job focuses mainly on professionals. The kinds of questions it asks, and the approaches it suggests for making contact are especially suitable for those in the corporate world and for other professionals, including medical and legal professionals. But not exclusively. In fact, the system is comprehensive enough to accommodate a very broad range of professions and levels of experience. So if you get started and think that this will work mostly for corporate types, don’t give up too soon. You too will find plenty of information that can help you find your own perfect job.

In case you’re curious: Pam shares her own personal story in the book. You’ll find out that once Pam discovered the system, she went on to find several great jobs throughout her career. That’s one of the key benefits of this system. No longer will you feel forced to stay with a job that turned sour just because you’re afraid to leave. Once you’ve mastered Pam’s system, you’ll know you can always find a new perfect job. And with that message, “Great Job!” is probably the most uplifting book I’ve come across in a long time!

Pam has helped numerous people find theirs in her work as a career counselor and expert. And if “Great Job!” is any indication, she’ll soon be helping hundred of thousands of people around the country find their own great jobs too.

The first two days after losing your job can be crucial to setting the tone of your recovery plan. Start with high energy and you’ll build positive momentum to help you through. The tips below are organized by hour starting from the end of the work day.

Zero Hour: Stay positive! Stay rational.

Whatever you do, you have to keep your attitude positive. You’ll need all your energy to land on your feet. The last thing you need is to start feeling sorry for yourself or filling your psyche with negative emotions.

Hour 1: Cool off.

You’ll be in an emotionally charged state. Things that seem like good ideas now are things you may regret later. Take time to cool off and evaluate the situation. Talk to a family member or close friend and vent.

Hours 2 to 14: Expand your support network.

As you regain your composure, contact other people who can be supportive. By talking to more people you’ll talk through your own doubts and get positive messages from others. Do something fun and try to get a good night’s rest.

Hour 14: Charge into Day 1.

Even if it’s the weekend, wake on your normal workday schedule or even earlier. Now that you don’t have a job you have a lot of work to do. Too much sleep will make you feel sluggish and start you off on the wrong foot. Try to squeeze in some exercise or other physical activity. Take charge of your future!

Hours 15 to 25: Get things done.

Expenses - Eliminate the non-essentials. Call your creditors and ask if they can help you through this job transition by reducing minimum payments or extending due dates.

Revenue - Determine how much cash you have on hand and how long it will last based on your expenses. Liquid assets are things like cash, savings accounts, and mutual funds. Retirement accounts and your home are generally things you would not want to convert to cash except as a last resort.

Your employer should have let you know if you will be getting a severance package or not. Make sure you clarify the details to avoid over estimating your benefits.

Apply for unemployment insurance immediately. You may delay or reduce your benefits if you wait too long. Most programs require that you be actively looking and available for work. The SBA and local small business organizations can offer help if you will be starting your own business.

Health insurance - You don’t want a financial set-back turning into a financial or medical disaster. Make sure you and your loved ones are covered.

If you have health benefits through work you may be able to extend coverage through COBRA. Do not extend your existing plan without comparing your alternatives. An individual plan with identical benefits may be hundreds of dollars less expensive per month. If you have health problems or are considered a high risk, then COBRA may be your best option, but even in that case you can receive free quotes online through brokers..

Hours 26 to 37: Unwind.

This has been a busy day taking care of urgent matters. Spend some time with friends and family. Read or watch something inspirational. Relax, have some fun, and sleep well knowing that you are taking charge of your future.

Hour 38: Charge into Day 2.

Today you may find your energy waning. Push to get up early again and keep going through the rest of the day. If you are feeling tired, then try some physical activity. If you must rest for awhile, set an alarm in case you fall asleep. Taking it easy today would slow your momentum.

Hours 39 to 48: Start your job search.

Take care of any open matters from yesterday and then get down to your job search. Update your resume, consider your options, and start calling your professional network of contacts. Don’t limit yourself to online job sites. The response rate can be discouraging. Local and offline classified sections can often yield better response rates. Look for any chance to get in front of employers such as at job fairs, professional organization meetings, or other networking events.

The Hours Beyond: Onward and upward!

If you were revved up the first two days, you may notice your energy slip a little to a level you can sustain on a daily basis. This is normal. Keep your eyes and ears open for opportunities. Be bold. Stay positive and soon you will find the job of your dreams.

In the last article we covered some basic tips about evaluating a possible job. Today we’ll step it up a bit with the essential pearls:

1) The single thing you need to do is find out if anybody has left the group, hospital, or clinic you are interested in, find them, and talk to them. They may have left on good terms, for family reasons, geography, or a vertical move, or they may give you insight into problems that will make your practice and life miserable.

2) Where will you practice? One facility or several? Admitting privileges at one hospital or several? Have members of your group had trouble getting OR time or beds at one hospital vs. another? Is there bad blood between hospitals? Does your group favor one versus the other and why? Will you have any choice or do you have to follow the group’s preferences?

3) Although you need to read it with a great deal of skepticism, ask for a copy of the hospital/clinic/group’s annual report, if they have one. Find out how often the organization has been “in the black” (i.e. profitable) during the last 10 years. Same administration in place? If not, why not?

4) Be cautious about accepting a job because a particular mentor or famous colleague will be there. In academics, people move with notable frequency. Entire departments can change in months; in cities people can move between medical centers rapidly. You don’t want to show up July 1 to find out your mentor and her entire staff moved to the opposite coast, leaving you as acting chief while the hospital staffs your division with locum tenens.

5) Regarding equipment: if it isn’t there when you are there interviewing, then it isn’t there. Repeat that in your mind. If there’s something essential to your practice – 32 slice CT scanner with 3D capabilities, state of the art cysto room, a particular endoscope – and you are assured it will be there by the time you arrive, or it is “in the budget”, or “we’ll work with you” do not accept the job based on that. In hospital budgets those things get cut out faster than a melanoma. If it isn’t there when you are there, it isn’t there.

When it comes to marketing ideas for doctors you will quickly discover that the most effective forms of marketing involve online marketing. Internet marketing for doctors is by and far the most efficient means of advertising available to physicians. In fact, doctors who use Internet Marketing have reported that over 75% of their business has been a direct result of online marketing. This just goes to show how effective and profitable that Internet Marketing can be.

There are numerous doctor internet marketing ideas that all physicians should consider when it comes to their online marketing. The first thing that should be considered when it comes to marketing for doctors is the creation of a website for your medical practice. Websites are crucial to doctor office marketing. This is due to the fact that many first time patients will turn to the World Wide Web in order to run searches in their area to determine what doctors and practices are close to them. If your medical practice does not feature such a website, you will be losing business to another medical practice that does have an established website.

When considering the creation of a website as part of your internet marketing for doctor’s strategy, you will want to ensure that you hire an outside firm or designer to establish your website. You will want to hire a professional who has experience in SEO which stands for Search Engine Optimization. SEO will place vital content and information on your website that will make your website appear higher in rankings on search engines when medical practices in your area of business are searched for. If you attempt to design your medical practice website on your own or hire an individual who is not familiar with SEO, your website may fail to generate the business and traffic that you desire. This will ultimately result in a loss of business and profits for your medical practice.

Apart from simply advertising your doctor’s office and services you can also consider using your website when it comes to marketing to doctors. This is very helpful if you are trying to draw new doctors to your practice or are attempting to hire other medical staff. More people look for medical based jobs online then they do in print. Therefore, you are more likely to fill a vacancy in your place of business if you use your website and the resources of the World Wide Web to fill these spots. In fact, over 85% of all jobs filled in the medical community are a direct result of online job postings and medical practice websites which post such jobs.

Another marketing idea that you should consider when it concerns your medical practice is turning to websites such as Google to further promote your company through keyworded advertising in a program such as Google Adsense or even Adbrite. These are ad-share companies that allow you to place advertisements on other websites according to specific keywords and search phrases that you choose. This will provide further exposure for your medical practice and will generate more revenue for your medical practice in the long run.

There is no denying the importance of medical advertising and marketing if you desire to see your medical practice generate new patients and produce more money. You must go out of your way to make this possible by hiring a marketing consultant and by ensuring that they have experience when it comes to medical based marketing strategies and advertising. When you do so you will find that your medical practice will begin to grow in leaps and bounds. This growth will ultimately result in a financial growth for your practice! There is no greater investment that you can make, then by investing time and money in a proper medical marketing strategy for your practice.
