Missing my YOG bonus. $400 for 50,000 lines. - sadmut
Posted: Aug 19, 2013
Yep, no accuracy percentage, if you worked for them you were good and they knew it, not need to prove yourself. No minimum line counts per hour, work and do your daily minimum whenever at your pace, as long as it got done. No dings for sending to QA or asking for clarification. No outrageous taxes taken out of bonus, earned $400 got $400. Sure do miss those days when we were treated as adults who could be trusted to do a good job.
Me too -- Miss the old days - nn
[ In Reply To ..]Me too. Loved YOG and working for Carole. I would sometimes drive into the office just to say hello if I had a free day of sorts. Hated it when we got the message on our computers that the company had been sold.
Those were the days my friend...

[ In Reply To ..]We would receive bonuses with every paycheck if we exceeded a very realistic line count. People there worked harder than anywhere else I have seen. productivity and benefits. . . pick your own time schedule. No meetings, no audits. Ahh, those were the days. Plus a candybar every Christmas.
I miss the good days so badly. - sadmut
[ In Reply To ..]YOG would send little gifts in the mail. I still have and use the letter opener. None of this competing with other MTS to get a prize. They appreciated every one of us and every one of us got a little something. Was sure nice. I even got a raise there! Can you imagine - a raise? Now we hope not to get a decrease in pay. I feel sorry for the newbies who never got to see what it was really like. Good pay, good people, good job. Sure miss those times.
I miss them too. Any idea whatever happened - to the Marcus brothers?

[ In Reply To ..]Are you talking about Medical Records Corporation? I worked for them out of Southfield, Michigan many, many years ago and was wondering if this is who you meant. I believe it was the Marcus Brothers who owned them.
Yes, then they sold out and became MRC and - were never the same, became
[ In Reply To ..]the beginning of what they eventually turned into - MQ. I'm thankful I was around in the "good old days" when we made decent money and the ESLs were few and far between. We used to think we were so high-tech back in 1982.... Guess we were because we were a step above an IBM Selectric.

[ In Reply To ..]I was making $100.00 a day back then, too. The same amount I shoot for today. Sad.
Also a shout out to Encompass too. - sadmut
[ In Reply To ..]They were great for the short time I worked for them before the big buyout by Nuance. Really nice, nice people and a feeling of comraderie.
YES!!! I miss my beloved Encompass every single day. :( nm - Lisa

Back To Missing Lines
Oct 26, 2009
MQ uses Instant Text for their line counts. I knew i had it for word expanders but prefer to use my own WEs. Well, they have a line counter too but I haven't had the time to check it out. So, today, I took about 5 documents, copied and pasted them into Word. MQ requires 65 CPL, Word requires 73, so I should have come out behind in Word each time. Instead, I came out behind in every document, the least being amount 11 lines and the most was 29. T ...

Is It True That FOCUS, Only Counts Half Of Your Lines When Calculating VR Lines?
Jan 30, 2012
if you make 4 cents per line at 1000 lines a day, they really calculate it at 500 lines per day x 4 cents, making it really 2 cents per line for the full 1000. I heard this, and I am really interested in knowing if it is true. ...
Told Nuance Was Overcharging For Lines, Now Lines Drastically Reduced
May 02, 2012
My main account was a good one, and the lines were very good, mostly ER work. I have been on this account for over a year and a half now. We recently received an e-mail stating that Nuance had discovered that the line count was charging incorrectly, as instituted by them, and they had been crediting us with MORE lines than we were actually doing and overcharging the client. Now get this, they informed us that they would not make US pay it back, for their mistake, but that our new lines would re ...
TransTech Lines - Required Hours But Are Short Lines?
Jun 10, 2011
What do you do when you have the required hours but are short lines? I got an email that I need to "make plans to have my shortage made up." The only problem is that I'm up to date with my hours for the pay period so far. The other problem is that I have plans Saturday night and Sunday (both being my scheduled time off) that don't include TransTech. It's getting harder and harder to defend this company when they can't hold up their end of the agreement and continually ...
TransTech Lines - How Many Lines Do You Average During The Day/week?
Jan 19, 2011
Just wondering if the TT MTs would like share ... how many lines do you average during the day/week? I'm doing about 9,000 to 10,000 a week and wonder if I should be pushing myself more. How much of your count is VR? I do probably 15% traditional and 85% VR but that, of course, varies week to week. ...

TransTech Lines - How Many Lines Do You Average Per Day
Jul 13, 2011
How many lines do you average per day - VR and traditional? I know it's been VERY slow lately, but when things are going well, how many lines do you normally get? I'm trying to figure out where the average numbers are. For me, I do about 350 trad and about 1400 VR in 8 hours. Well, my timesheet says 8 hours, but my clock says that number MAY(!) be a little higher. Again, these are numbers I pull when things are going well and I'm not waiting for work to download. I'v ...
Am I Missing Something?
Nov 20, 2011
I have been trying to get another job being an MT that is either FT or is PT to supplement my already PT job. I have sent out way more resumes that I can count and only got one job offer. This job offer was for 5 to 6 cpl. I could have worked full time on this job, but I feel that an MT is worth more than what they were offering. My questions are am I missing something? Am I doing something wrong? What else can I do? It's just frustrating to finally ...
Missing Pay=No Work????
Jan 14, 2010
I am missing a little over $100 from my paycheck from 2 weeks ago. Nobody is answering my calls or replying to my emails. I did get one email saying they were busy doing this weeks payroll, and they would look into after they were finished, but still nothing. I am getting really upset about this. It wasn't my whole check, but enough that the impact was felt (and is still being felt). This also happened about a month ago, and it took it them several d ...
Futurenet, I Really Do Not Get It. What Am I Missing? Sm
Apr 02, 2010
I recently went back there part-time to supplement my day job after quitting because I got real tired of the highly fluctuating work flows. My husband really pushed me to do this because we needed the extra money. Once again, there is never any work for me to do, and yet they are hiring again? Saying they need 2nd and 3rd shift? That's what I do. I'm not even going to bother trying to talk to them about it, because I already tried that and got nothing back ...

Missing HPs When Typing DSs?
Oct 02, 2010
Okay, I have had the suspicion that MQ programmed something when you bring up old reports when typing a discharge summary that the H&P doesn't show up. Today, the dictator doing the DS plainly stated that she was reading right off the H&P. I went to check in the old reports to maybe get some quick lines, but it wasn't there...as usual. I typed what she said and realized that I had already typed this before and that I was the one that typed the original H&P ...
Word Missing
Mar 16, 2011
When you suspect that a word may have been omitted from dictation, do you make a note for this to be reviewed or do you think that is overstepping your bounds and basically saying the doctor made a mistake? For instance, this ESL doc said "Bacterial endocarditis is not particularly recommended, but the patient has had Augmentin or amoxicillin and may be given a single dose.." I suspect he forgot to say bacterial endocarditis "prophylaxis" is not particularly recommended...etc. ...

Missing Keystrokes

I am a remote transcriptionist for a large hospital. We recently went live with VR Nuance/escript.

This has been happening since the first day of go live. IT, Nuance nor escript have any idea what is going on. Has this ever happened to an ...

Here is what you can and SHOULD do if you don't get your W2 by Feb. 16. - You’ll have to wait a bit: the IRS does not want to hear from you about missing forms until after February 16.
