many MTs are coming over into the coding world

On my every-other-month audit by my QTL I lost points for expanding Clostridium difficule, but SHE wanted me to put (I kid you not) C Diff. Now I have been reading stories by newswriters about E-coli, but I'm still putting E. coli. Please don't tell me those idiot biddies at AHDI have changed the "rules" on us again. I also make money typing papers for professional journals, and I really HATE dumbing myself down for MQ. and...I'm still getting broken jobs with terms like ...

I was an MT for about ten years before leaving due to pay cuts and off shoring. I watched my pay sink, begging for work, and became physically sick being an MT. After two years out, I miss being home and working. I am not asking for good companies but merely asking if it is possible to earn a living and be suppied adequate work as an MT....thank you ...

Posted on Christmas Eve! CBAY of India has 6,500 MT's with another 800 soon and MQ has how many MT's, 3,000-4,000? http://www.newswiretoday.com/news/62574/ CBaySystems Expands India Operations with New Mumbai Centre NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, 12/24/2009 - New Centre at Mindspace2, Airoli - Plans to add 800 people by end 2010 at this new Centre.

I have posted on here many times about putting in requests to have doctors removed from ASR and have been told it doesn't do any good. Apparently some people are listening. I was told that they are flooded with requests now and it is taking a little longer to get to my requests reviewed. I have also noticed that some of the doctors I used to do in ASR are no longer in ASR. Thanks to all who are sending requests and keep them going. Some don't get removed, ...

Sure hope so. QA are being set up to be the "Payroll Gods". Setting us against each other. I know there is one particular QA that I cringe when I see her name. She is probably a nice person and just trying to do her job, but talk about nit-picky. She has a Master's degree in that area. ...

Morning all. Knew it was coming, just didn't know when. CTL gone Monday and this a.m., a totally new CCM. Haven't been told anything by anyone at MQ about any of this. Just happened. It's OK. The last CCM was pretty bad, never answered E.mails or phone calls. The CTL was great though and that is probably why she is gone. MQ can't stand to have anyone good for morale and/or MTs work for them. Look out everyone, its Christmas ...

PE section of report. Abdomen: Revealed bulging flanks. An umbilical hernia was present. There were bowel sounds throughout. s/l Pastel's or Pascal's was positive, and there was a positive fluid wave. Any help would be appreciated! ...

would probably not jibe with what Vern would like the world to know. ...

Obama announced a new tax break for every new employee hired will get a 5,000 tax break and up to 500,000 total for each company who hires new employees. My congressman is going to hear from tomrrow when I call his office. You all know how MQ loves to hire new employees and I sure hope they do not plan on getting rid of us old ones and if they do? I see ANOTHER lawsuit coming called age discrimination. ...

Okay people, if you were in the middle of your shift, or you could not sign on for your shift, make sure you filed a Q-care ticket and notified your CCM. Mine has been sending E-mails throughout the day stating that she KNOWS that DQS is still down even though it shows a green light. By Medquists own Policy description for downtime for ME/MTs, this definitely qualifies. Go to MQ Central Home page---Human Resources---policies. At the bottom of the page there is a link call ...

So what do you think we'll get as a Christmas present this year? A new mouse pad, an envelope opener, perhaps a pencil with the Medquist logo on it, an eraser maybe? Oh, the possibilities are endless!! I'm sooooo excited, I just can't wait! After all, we know how much Medquist appreciates us by the way they treat us! Oh wait, I forgot, there have never been even cost of living raises let alone merit raises. Oh wait, I forgot ...

Gee, we at WMX just got our present early. A surprise cut in pay and bonus plan. I really hope they don't have any other little "gifts" in store for us. ...

just wonderin, cuz this board is the only place i've heard of it. is it in email or MQ central or what? ...

Is it just me, or would I be concerned 100+ folks are coming to M*M this week? Does anyone get concerned about this, such as going from FT to PT due to the pressure of tons of typists? ...

I was looking over already transcribed reports by others to check on a medication and came across a mistake that really makes us look foolish and is something, IMHO, that any transcriptionist would know and this doctor speaks good English. Would you notify QA so they can correct the report or notify the hospital to correct the report? Thanks for your opinion. ...

a big chunk of work is coming back to the US. India couldn't figure Texas doctor's accent I guess! ...

ok, I have been offered a secretarial job but it is with a new company so I am iffy on whether the comany will make it. My question to everyone here if it doesn't make it I would probably go back to MT. How long do you guys think I could be away and still be able to find a job? Edited to add that I currenlty have 6 years experience at MT. ...

apparently I was only employed by Nuance thru last December. Starting in January I was employed by Transcend. This is as per the state unemployment benefits office. They were really interested that my check stubs said Transcend/DBA as Nuance out of Mass., and the W2s only had Transcend out of Melbourne, Florida. Asked me questions about it, but told them I had never noticed when Transcend was added to the check stubs, which I didn't. Don't know anything ab ...

Does anyone else have trouble when clicking Search where no search box comes up? Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't for a very long time. Just wondering if it is my computer or what. Anyone else have that trouble? ...

Just waiting and hoping... any news anyone? ...

I currently work for MModal. Considering Nuance. Opinions and/or advice would be appreciated. ...

Switched over to the new region, cant figure out how to get it to go away. Thanks! ...

I just got word that they're going to be using the swapboard soon. Has anyone ever used that and can you tell me anything about it? I'm just curious if it's going to be a good thing or a bad thing. Thanks in advance for your help! ...

Yesterday (Sun) was a nightmare. I was struggling to get jobs all day long (see posts below). There were very few last night even, when there are normally an abundance of jobs. I was bouncing all over the place; it was like the cesspool all over again. Look at the backlog this morning; only 400 jobs company wide at 8 EST? I think whatever upgrade they did yesterday morning just sucked more accounts to our ILPs. ...

After I was terminated by Transcend, I thought my world had come crashing down on me, and I picked up the pieces and started to look for work. In the meantime, I filed for unemployment, never thinking I had 1 chance to gain that at all. My judgment came in from the review board in the State of FL., and they determined that there was no fault found on my part when the company terminated me, and that I had carried out my duties, as described in my job description, with no intent on my ...

Am I missing something? What happened in the world we live in now? It is as if something has gone terribly awry almost overnight. It must have changed when I wasn't looking... I made a cold call to a pain clinic in a nearby town. I asked if I might send my resume via e-mail and was told "We don't like to give out our e-mail address." I was asked if I might mail it via snail mail to the attention of their office manner. I was told her name was " ...

This doctor is going way too fast. Even when we slow him down, he is going sooooo fast. Here is the sentence we have been stuck on! The patient ___ sedation to the right. The abdomen is prepped Beta and scrubbed Beta solution and draped in usual fashion. Same doctor, same dictation: The area was checked for hemostasis, closed with 3-0 Vicryl of the subcutaneous tissue and 4-0 Vicryl ___ skin and steri-strips. Please and thank you SO very much! ...

I am having a hard time. I am realizing this is exactly what I am doing. Working for another country. The country who came out with a new 49.00 computer as of today. This country is making money off of me. http://www.cnn.com/2011/10/05/tech/india-new-computer-tablet/ ...
