What happened to common courtesy

If I were experienced in pathology transcription, I would definitely apply to you just because of that common decency. ...

Interesting! So Constellation Softwares acquires QuadraMed which the CEO is Duncan James (our new CEO for MM) and supposedly QuadraMed courtesy of Misys (who Davenport and Princess used to work for and Allscripts and Misys merged) managers of QuadraMed are clearing out their offices and employees would be told how long they had left to work for the company which Duncan leaves as CEO of QuadraMed to join as CEO of MM. My gosh, they all are sleeping together. ARTICLE: Constellat ...

Is is common practice if you are placed on hold to pay them back 3/4 of your pay?? Is everything out there like this? ...

PLEASE NO NEGATIVE FEEDBACK! This is truly meant to be helpful, not snotty, threatening, or negative so I expect the same in return. Military time: Lately I have seen a lot of reports where people are inserting colons in military time. Colons are NOT used for military time unless the hour, minute, AND seconds are given. If the CP states that time is transcribed "3:00 a.m." this is for "regular" time and not military time. Spacing: TWO spaces after periods that end ...

During your search for work, if you see a "transcription company" seeking one of us for immediate work due to falling desperaetly behind on contracts, check some of the MT forums. If MT's are trashing said "transcription company" and you see a lengthy, detailed defensive response from said "transcription company"; think......maybe the reason the said "transcription company" is behind on their contracts is because they are not utilizing someone, who has the time and ability to reply at great ...

I swear, these so-called intelligent doctors have no common sense at all. Let's see how much noise we can have in the backgroun and talk as fast as we possibly can to see if the transcriptionist can get my dictaion right. This guy talks so fast I don't even know how he can get the words clearly out of his mouth, then he must have called someone on speaker phone because I can hear the phone ringing and ringing and ringing, and then his pager goes off which of course he pulls close ...

I used to teach grammar and I now do MT work. One of the most common hyphen errors lies in the short arm cast, long arm cast. This does not get hyphenated. By hyphenating it (short-arm cast), one is actually stating there's also a long arm. It's a short (or long) cast that is worn on the arm, not a cast for a short arm or a long arm. ...

Wow!!! This is an angiogram of carotids via femoral artery.......cannot find this anywhere!!! ...

Surgery report The ulnar nerve was freed up. The 2 heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris were identified. The "vena common tantes" were protected. ?? I have no clue. ...

This is for doing a common bile duct exploration: The common bile duct is slightly enlarged. No other s/l piditive obstructive lesions are demonstrated. Thanks for any help! ...

Is it common to not be able to meet line counts at Nuance? I have been there close to 3 months and cannot make my line count basically due to having some many ESLs and having to correct so many things in VR. Very frustrated!! ...

Is it common to NOT have tab functions, auto correct, or a grammar checker on a "transcription program". We just got Inscribe and it is about as basic as it comes, not Word comparable - not even close - without tabs, Autocorrect or grammar check. I feel like I'm in the dark ages here. ...

Lately the doctors have been spelling out so many common words, some are even enunciating fully now, which is nice, the enunciating not the spelling, that wastes my time..Makes me think that our out of country counterparts are maybe messing up in a HUGE way..Most of us know the words/phrases/slang they use and fix it. I just see so much in docqumanage that makes my jaw drop. ...

I'm curious if this is throughout a lot of MT companies where the summer seasons are the slowest in terms of receiving work. I used to have an abundunt amount of doctors to transcribe for across multiple accounts, but now all of a sudden that has changed, and I am almost always out of work and I no longer transcribe for what I'm estimating as half to 3/4 of the list of docs. Is this something normal? Do doctors get together and take a 3-month hiatus at once, or something...? I'm p ...

Does this sound right? Thanks, Abby ...

I just wondered...has anyone ever made a mistake on a report (which was your fault and you readily admit you screwed up) and get an email stating: please explain why you made that mistake because the client is waiting for an explanation??!!! WTH? Yes, I purposely made that error because I wanted too? I enjoy making critical errors? My error was most likely a keystroke error that I failed to catch..I admit it. I try to be as careful as possible but I am human. ...

I started my bartending class yesterday.. first time I have done anything outside the house in 7 years. I was terrified. I don't think I really realized how isolating and stressful working for the Q at home really was. I had almost forgotten what it was like to interact with real people, doing something that was real and down to earth. But I had a wonderful time, terrified though I was. I still feel like I've been totally reborn, and I am so relieved to be out of th ...

I just to recently switched to a whole new region, supervisor and QA supervisor with 3 days notice because of ONE particular account I transcribe on. I had been typing the previous accounts for over 5 years. Since the switch two weeks ago, I have now TEN new accounts that I type for with all new CP's, set-ups and dictators; however, I have noted AT ALL the account for which I had previously typed which was the reason I was transferred in the first place!! Furthermore, there& ...

DocQScribe froze trying to download next report. Tried to check Q E-mail while I was waiting and it is "not available." Am I the last to know something? ...

Occasionally when I'm doing an ASR report and insert a QA marker the yellow cursor marker will go away and the cursor goes to the end of the report. Then I have to scroll back through the report to find my place and if I lift my foot off the foot pedal it happens again. Does anyone know how to fix this? It's irritating on a really long report. TIA. ...

(I am not a "suit." :-) ) I would like to know from some of you what is the going rate now (really) for lines per hour or hourly pay and if there are even steady hours anymore. I just can't believe that this "profession" has gone downhill so much and downhill so quickly in even the last 5 years. I wonder what the next 5 years will look like or if there will even be MTs? If anyone has left the "profession" because they just can't make a living doing this anymore, what are you doing n ...

that was just on there earlier and now it's gone? I was going to send an email, came back to get the address and the posting is gone. Must have hired someone already? ...

When I signed on this morning, I pulled down 3 reports. I did the first one and went back to find just one left. What happened to the other report? Please let me know if you know. Thanks ...

I am curious to know if you got any responses to your emails. ...

to DF with MDI? Is she still there somewhere on board with Nuance. Wonder what she thinks about all of this, not that it really matters at this point, just curious... ...
