SHREVEPORT, LA TRANSCRIPTIONISTS

make a living being an MT? In addition to how low our pay has gotten, and the myriad other problems that we all deal with, if you can't focus, do you think that is cutting into your finances as well? I've always had a suspicion that I have ADD. Was a totally hyper kid. Daydreamer in school. High IQ (148), labelled as "gifted" in 1st Grade, yet with each passing year did less and less well in school. Looked out the window and zoned out more than I paid att ...

M*Modal will call the shots. No doubt they'll start jacking up prices to the clients then. That's the way it usually works. Should only take a few more years. Save a bit now, spend a lot more down the road. Lol. Shortsighted fools. ...

I am curious what the thoughts are about this. Will is be mandatory in a few years that all doctors offices go to EMR? Will this be the end of the medical transcriptionist or is there something we can do now to prepare for the change and still be in this field? ...

I am training someone and I am now reminded how far I have come, how much I have learned, and the things I take for granted and assume others know. Basic things, just proper English, not even taking into consideration the medical terminology. Knowing whether a sentence makes sense or not. We really should be paid better. But it is nice to feel smart sometimes....and you know anyone who can do this job really does have to be pretty darn intelligent. Fello ...

I wouIld like to know what your opinion is on M-modal. Do you like it or not? Is it helpful to you? Are you being nit-picked to death about it? ...

Go to this website. Transcriptionists will no longer be needed in the future for transcribing or editing. One of my friends told me the hospital she retired from is going to this system and their transcription department will eventually no longer exist. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGMEf11GmBo ...

I am now down to 3 companies (from 4) trying to make a living at this, wondering what I should do next. I'd like to go get my coding diploma and move on from there as I cannot take this anymore. Four jobs and between all of them I got $700 last week and am still waiting for checks to arrive. I asked one of them why it wasn't DD and they said they would cut and mail the check. Lord knows when the other one will arrive. I don't know, don't YOU ...

How can they possibly get paid less than us? We get paid peanuts and if it is so lucrative for this company to send stuff offshore just wondering what they pay the indian transcriptionists? ...

I work in the path department and when a malignant case comes up that requires a CAP, I defer to the CAP summary. The docs dictate "lymphovascular . . ." but the CAP summaries will have "lymph-vascular . . ." The problem is today I was checking the CAP protocol for the Lung CA and the word was used both ways. In the actual protocol itself, there was the hyphenated version as a header, i.e., but then in the explanatory notes at the end of the protocol there' ...

Ok, I am just venting some frustration here Wanted: Experienced medical transcriptionist, VR experience. Just for the privilege of doing transcription for us we will only charge you 3 cpl. You may pay us by direct deposit each Friday. The personal satisfaction you will receiving from being a part of making our company succeed and be profitable, along with satisfying the facility you are striving to put out perfect reports for should be enough for you, as we are t ...

I would like to get some information from the UPMC transcriptionists that lost their jobs at UPMC when their jobs were outsourced to Nuance. Please respond via email. I would greatly appreciate your help! Thanks! ...

Curious as to the workload of MModal now. I reitred almost a year ago after issues with speech recognition versus transcription. ...

Hello! Just wondering if anyone has heard of "Epic" a new EMR. I work for a doctor's office and was told no need anymore for transcription. Checking to see if anyone is in the same boat I am or heard of this new EMR. Thanks ...

able to do any type of transcription. Not sure if that is tier 3 or any transcriptionist, but AHDI is not a friend of the MT. AHDI and MQ are certainly in bed together and against the MT. ...

I came across an ad recently catering to unemployed new registered nurses who need jobs badly. I am understanding that the market for RNs and healthcare in general is saturated and then some; however, this article specifically stated "Nurse Medical Transcriptionists." I saw it on All Nurses forum; I don't remember the company . . . BUT a lot of nurses were responding with interest because they can't get jobs. The only thing that was running through my mind was "you have no idea people ...

I've recently graduated with an Associate of Applied Science degree and I received my Certificate in Medical Transcription. I've taken several tests for companies over the Internet but they all say the same thing in response to me, "gain more experience, and then come back to us." How can I gain more experience when no one will hire a newbie? If anyone has any advice on this subject, please let me know. ...

Why do medical transcriptionists have to be paid by line. Who started that? Why can't they be paid per hour like other jobs? ...

HAS ANYONE HEARD THAT TRANSCRIPTIONISTS WILL NO LONGER BE NEEDED IN THE YEAR 2013 AS PHYSICIANS WILL BE GIVEN INCENTIVES TO CARRY LAPTOPS AND ENTER ALL INFO IN? ...

Anyone heard back from this ad? I received a letter stating they were reviewing my resume. ...

I know this idea has been tossed around a lot but yet nothing has been done about it (to my knowledge - if someone knows different, please correct me). I am in agreement that we as transcriptionists need to band together so that we don't get treated unfairly and not paid what we are actually worth. I know there are many of us that have chosen medical transcription as our career and are still holding on and sticking through the changes. How do you go about creating a union for transcriptio ...

HI all, I could've sworn I read this somewhere that medical transcriptionists - even the REMOTE ones WORKING AT HOME ! - are REQUIRED by some employers to get annual flu shots. Is this true?? Does anyone have any experience with this? I found it quite odd, to say the least. Also, does anyone know if this is true of med transcriptionists that work IN A HOSPITAL - this I know, that some hospitals these days are requiring vaccinations of all workers. Ready and waiting to read your input :&nb ...

I was just wondering if there are very many Canadian medical transcriptionists who visit this forum. In Canada we are not "certified" i.e. I took a six month course at college and have a certificate, but we do not have a professional organization as such. I wish we did! Sometimes I can find a word here when asking the other girls in the office doesn't come up with any new ideas. ...

Please do not work for PreciseMT based out of Nebraska!! Please forward this e-mail around so no one else falls for this! This loss of wages has put such a burden on me and my family. I don't want anyone else to suffer. http://www.wowt.com/factfinders/headlines/Medical-Workers-Not-Being-Paid-166705406.html ...

Maybe old posting on the internet...not sure, or if all jobs are taken. Hard time finding the "transcription" postings and then led to a test. Not that long of a test but then states you did not pass then prompts you to a sign-up for medical terminology classes. Not sure if this is just a class sign up come on. If I were going to take a class, it surely would not be in transcription as there are no jobs out there. We are given other avenues ...

Does anyone know of any hospitals that still hire transcriptionists? Please help if so...Thanks! ...

For those of you that do general transcription, when you have a long file, do you listen to it over again at the end to proof it? How do you proof a long file? ...

When I contacted my representative about Amnerican transcription jobs being outsourced, my rep said there was a shortage of qualified transcriptionists in the United States. Do you suppose he got his information from the money mongers who justify their greed by filling our repesentatives' heads full of this bull. There are plenty of qualified transcriptionists in the US; the MTSOs just do not want to pay for quality. It is about money Mr. misinformed senator!!! ...

"Fiesa and XP computers, etc - me Posted: Apr 4th, 2014 - 1:56 am Everyone acts like it's all something new not to be provided a computer. As a former recruiter, let me tell you that 98% of equipment sent out was not returned and this very expensive for any company. It's not Nuance's fault XP will no longer be protected. There is no reason to go in debt for a new computer when you can easily buy one for less than 200, and remember it's all tax deducti ...

I just can't hold it in any longer! HAVE to vent about this! And if you are going to PROMISE somebody a full-time job....HAVE THE WORK AVAILABLE TO DO!!!! AND, don't bellyache when you end up having to pay that person minimum wage because they are not able to meet your (sometimes impossible) quota for reasons beyond that person's control (i.e. difficult dictators, having to go looking for the patient because the dictator did not put in all the informati ...
