As much as I detest the huge unforgiving

I'm in an HIT program after doing transcription for about 5 years and deciding that I'm tired of being a wandering sheep, and I just read the first chapter in one of my textbooks, which says that "speech recognition software is 95% to 99% accurate." I'll be pointing out in my class that that is a grievous error. ...

I had a HUGE eye opener yesterday. We are not the only ones who are being replaced by software, it is happening in every single industry - I read a big article yesterday announcing this "really cool" (the article's opinion, not mine) new way to place an order at Chili's - on an iPad type tablet that is brought to your table when you are seated - point and click. Then your order goes directly to the kitchen electronically and your dinner is brought to you by a staff member w ...

as we all know it is going to be totally different on 12/26..............why? Does anyone know what is happening the 26th? End of pay period is the 24th, 25th starts a new one so what significance does the 26th hold? ...

I guess I should plan for a week off for Valentines Day, hey? ...

I can't get to anything but the first page of my inbox. Oops, now can't even get that. Maybe I'll sit here and work on my Quality essay. ...

So, we were just informed that a huge account is being rolled out to EPIC and "assured" there would be "minimal" volume loss. Can somebody who has been through this please give us the true facts? I'm inclined to not want to drink the Nuance Kool-Aid. Thanks in advance. ...

I've heard for maybe 10 years now that right now, 2010, is when vast numbers of MTs were supposed to hit retirement age and quit work. What is retirement age? I don't want to retire, but when does a person really need to retire even if they don't want to? ...

Small to medium-sized company lost a very large long-term client. Naturally, the MTs are to blame. Reason given was the work was out of turn around on weekends and MTs did not meet their commitments. I can't say what percentage of MTs did not meet their commitments. I do know that I always have. I also know that I have kept an accurate log of the work on this very large account and 75 to 90% of the time the work runs out on Sunday, with no work available on Mon ...

http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/medquist-awarded-contract-with-child-health-corporation-of-america-101383704.html It does say hospital is outsourcing, so does that mean India? In the latest example of its support for providers nationwide, MedQuist recently signed an agreement with Child Health Corporation of America (CHCA) for clinical documentation and computer-assisted coding technology and outsourced medical transcription and coding services. MedQuist will implemen ...

Anyone else one of the new hires? Are you on the new huge account? I've been twiddling my thumbs now. Guess I need to apply elsewhere. I had been told before it was a good company, but I need to be actually typing. That really is a lot of MTs to hire and then not have the new account begin. I read, below, someone said it keeps being delayed. ...

Would really appreciate input from anyone who works on this account. ...

Just got email that stated that one of Nuance largest accounts has left them for another "vendor" They will be slowly removing them from pool and putting everybody elsewhere so they say ...

It takes up most of the screen, and I don't care about any of those statistics anyway. Just let me work without harrassing me about my stats. ...

workflow changes due to a large account being lost (wasn't my primary). Wondered why all of a sudden I was off my primary and getting mostly this account. Of course, they didn't know it was leaving until it disappeared. I'd probably have a heart attack if I every heard the truth. Never know what hospital is going to show up in the queve, more longer transcription jobs, ASR jobs that have to be typed because the ASR does not match up, some horrible dict ...

we have now and they keep requesting OT, how is this supposed to work!?! ...

NUANCE! Yes, that's right. The account I have had for 5 + years has now gone with Dragon EHR according to email from TSM today. How do you like them apples? ...

20 MTs are being moved elsewhere. ...

I've had a huge drop in work at Landmark for the past 3 months. I've been there for 3 years working on the same account the entire time. I've looked at my paychecks during these same exact months for the past years and I had much bigger paychecks, meaning much more work. Here it is a weekend and I had hardly any work yesterday and so far no work today and this account always had work. It's been this way for almost 4 months. Anyone work on the big account that starts ...

I just got an Email from BLR (Business and Legal Resources). They provide information to Human Resources Departments to make sure they are following federal and state laws. One of their upcoming Webinars is regarding “Employee versus Independent Contractor.” Too bad I cannot afford it ($219). I would really be interested in what they have to say since Employee versus Independent Contractor has been a hot topic on this Board, and from the responses, there are ...

Any suggestions to ease the pain - like a better way to delete? This is just too ridiculous. ...

has run out of work yet again, from last night and still this morning. Stupid me for believing the promises of a recruiter. ...

As much as I detest the huge unforgiving - MTSOs that I have
