the hospital is switching over to Epic in January and their plan is to have all of us gone by spring. There are 25 MTs who work for this hospital from home as IC's. We all started out as employees working at the hospital, then we worked from home as employees, then we went to IC status, now they are going to Epic and they will lay us all off once Epic is up and running and the nurses, medical secretaries and PA's will do all the transcription through Epic themselves. Needless to say, those people who will be doing the transcription are not happy at all, but it will be saving the hospital money. Us MTs have known about this for a year so at least we know we're losing our jobs, but it sucks.
