April Layoffs

Was a horrible ER doc mumbling all over the place. Nothing in a "previous note" would help that. So I sent it, expecting the worst. Just wanted to report that the QA filled in the 7 blanks, labeled them all "dictator effect" and scored it 100%!! Yeaaaaaaaa. QA been getting a bad rap lately. Thought I would brag on them for a change. ...

Hi all, I'm sure I'm asking a dumb question, but I just left an employee position to be an IC. The last time I was an IC I held out 25% of my wages in a savings account, didn't pay quarterly, and my husband's refund went all to taxes, plus I had to pay more than what I had saved up. Not happy campers. My husband is an employee, making much more than I (about 2-3x more), and I'm not sure how to pay quarterly to ensure that he still gets a refund at the ...

Why isn't April showing up in the Archives? I don't see anything from about May 1-5 either. ...

Care to elaborate on some things. I'm trying to figure out a pattern to the layoffs. When were you let go? What tier level? Higher end of tier pay or lower end? What region? How many hours? Was it a state that they had to pay up to 4 hours? There has to be a pattern to all of this, and it could help those of us hanging by a thread. ...

Just got the email today regarding the swap board and lockdown of schedule. ...

Who besides me has an Mmodal (and personal) XP system. Apparently Microsoft will no longer be supporting this after April 2014. What will we be doing for security? ...

I recently freaked when I found out MS was not going to be supporting XP after April 2014...I have a personal XP system and an Mmodal XP system. My supervisor said Mmodal would support XP after that; don't know what that means, but she will not let me exchange my Mmodal XP for a Windows 7 machine. I bought a Win7 laptop on Ebay. So far, so good. There are some new and some manufacturer refurbished still out there. Also if you look on the Dell.com website, you c ...

Unless I missed something, no one has said if there were specific regions where many MTs were laid off. Perhaps MM is going about this region by region. I am a Tier 3 part-timer and have not received a call. Of course, my mgr said it was all a rumor -- yea, right. I agree with those who said we are being replaced by India. I'd love to know MM's timetable for this -- and their thinking behind who goes here and who stays. I have had more than enough work from my primary account ...

I know this board is consumed right now about the layoffs but I have question. HAD to call Support yesterday and today, and was told that I cannot change my password in Ipswitch. He said only the techs could do it for me and that I am not allowed to have a personal password!! Never heard of such a thing. My head is spinning after talking to him. Are all you out there able to change your password? So sorry to the person(s) that got laid off. A job is a job and it's always sad t ...

Think I will get the proverbial axe on Monday or Tuesday - Tuesday should be the first day of my new pay period according to my schedule. After the corrective action for low LPH and many other things bugging me - definitely kept asking questions and when one did not answer, or answer fully, went higher, and also to HR. I really did love this job and it makes me so angry and depressed all at once at how things have gotten so awful! I did finally get them to finally acknowledge t ...

Anyone wanting to discuss the lay offs by MModal and the commonaliities of people laid off, please contact me through the "reply by email" button below or through this board. We were fired because our jobs were outsourced. The person who called and told about this "transition" admited it when I asked. Company loyalty means nothing to these people; they're just big business. I feel sorry for middle management, who probably know they're next to go. ...

I just read that KS is laying off, can anyone confirm? http://www.thelayoff.com/keystrokes-transcription-service ...

from what areas? SA4/South CCM is the same, but one regional director was changed from a guy to a woman I'm not familiar with. ...

I wonder if this is an "open the floodgates" kind of thing and will have a domino effect and more companies (like Medquist) will start laying off, too. Anybody have any comment on this? ...

I think I had posted this on the wrong board. For those of you that lost their accounts at Scan Medical along with me where did you all go. Did anyone try to go with the accounts to the new company or just start looking for jobs again. ...

got an email from amy about all mt meeying on april 17?. i got that email and 20 minutes later board was full of talks of layoffs. just wondering if i got the email because im safe or if everyone got it ...

The layoffs seem to be posts from Evelyn, Liz, Donna, Sue, Lee, Ruth, Pegge, Ginger and so on. Another post stated she talked to her TSM and it was all rumors. I do not mean to offend anyone, but I am part time and have overtime work tonight and for this weekend. Maybe due to people being laid off?? The thing is, I do not work my hours like I should because I am so SICK of this job after being here way too many years to care anymore. I have another job ...

Many MTs are losing their jobs or grossly under-employed due to outsourcing. The salary for many is insufficient to live off of in the USA. These MTs have been very loyal, flexible, highly productive employees that are committed to excellence. How did we get to this point where hardworking, loyal medical transcriptionists are no longer valued as employees by even the "Best Companies?" What can we do to keep MTs in the USA from being hungry and living in poverty level? These ...

Why is M-Modal running an ad for hiring when they recently laid off so many transcriptionists? ...

Has anyone worked where EPIC has been implemented? Did transcription work pick up after initial drop off or were there layoffs? ...

With the economy the way it is, layoffs happen. Do you really think that companies like to lay people off? If they lay people off, there is less being transcribed and less being invoiced and less profit lining their pockets. While I agree that email seems a cold way to lay people off, what option did they have? Everyone works remotely, right? If they started to make phone calls, it would've caused a panic for those who weren't being laid off. This wa ...

If anyone is in the Atlanta, Georgia area or in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area who was laid off 2 days ago by Webmedx and is obviously still upset about it, as I am, I think it would be a good idea to notify any local newspapers in these 2 cities regarding the recent massive layoff at Webmedx, Inc. I believe the Atlanta office is their headquarters and the Pittsburgh office is their operations office. I know they also have an office in Brentwood, Tennessee, but I'm ...

I used to work for a company that had an annual Christmas layoff. It was almost a joke with those of us who had survived the latest round. Most companies have a budget. In bad times they tend to run out of money at the end of the year. It's rotten and shows poor planning, but nobody should be shocked when it happens. ...

First continually and rapidly cutting our pay to nothing while we had to retrain on numerous systems, then mass layoffs of seasoned employees, even CMTs AND newbies, now they're trying this week to create reasons to let the rest of us go. I think it's past time we look into A.) a class-action lawsuit and B.) go public with our outrage! They cut our pay to nothing but continue to charge their CLIENTS too much so they lose accounts to MedQuist and start treating US like dirt? ...

I've been working since I was 15 years old in various fields and have witnessed many, many layoffs. Although I have usually been in a position where I was privvy to the details of when the layoff would take place and who was on the list to be cut, I have NEVER worked anywhere where the employees to be laid off were given a heads-up beforehand. Sure, rumors would circulate about the impending cuts, but I've never heard of employers actually warning an employee that they were ...
