Does anyone have any information on TCI Total Source? sm - curiousMT


Posted: Oct 12, 2012

I searched the archives and didn't come up with anything.  Just wondering if anyone has any info they are willing to share about this company.

If I were you I woukd run far far away - very very fast....SM

I worked there for a few months....went against my gut cuz the president/owner said all the right things. She is very insecure and quite possibly unstable. Things change daily as to what's important. Work runs out regularly. She will be your best friend...until you make one mistake...then she make you miserable until you quit. I would run away....far away.

I saw an ad from them on another board, answered their questions and now I see an ad on 10/09 on the mtstars job board for Transcription Client Account Services under Mindy, and they ask the same questions, seems like same people, different company name, enough to make me question validity.

Owner is a nice lady...sm - BTDT

Supervisor also very nice BUT they hire you as an IC and treat you like an employee. You must adhere to a very strict schedule, find your own coverage if you are sick, going on vacation, need a day off, etc. Pay is very low and you run out of work frequently. It's probably okay for a part-time job, but if you need to support your family then it probably won't work out.

Patient had bilateral total hip arthroplasties.  Under radiographs DR dictates "good calcar s/l nerve resporption."  I know calcar resporption is appropriate in this context, but I have never heard nerve dictated along with it.  Is this common or could I be hearing a stutter?  Thanks! ...

A couple of things I just cant understand, this DR sounds like he is drunk this morning! "status post left s/l amelano total hip arthroplasty for AVN with collapse" "internal and external range of motion over the s/l sick or sit joint is quite benign"  Patient received an injection into the SI joint, so I am wondering if he is saying SIC joint.  Is the sacroiliac joint abbreviated in this way sometimes?  Cannot reference that. Dr is getting ESR, CRP and sed rate to make sure there is ...

How do I correct an incorrect logoff time in schedule source (cable was down for 2 hours).  I've searched MQCentral but only got a blank page under "policies."

Total System Hours?
Jul 24, 2012

Can someone please explain to me how the "total system hours" are calculated? My manager is always complaining that there shouldn't be a big difference between your hours clocked in on Webclock and your "total system hours" in Enterprise. I am wondering how they calculate these as I know it is not the time that you are clocked into Enterprise. I am guessing that they are somehow able to determine when you are actively working in Enterprise--typing, listening to audio, etc.? The thing that c ...
