Look at all that red in the backlog - Late work
Posted: Sep 21, 2013
We've been having late work for 4 days out of every week for awhile now with our TSM calling for OT constantly. The funny thing is, all the accounts that I'm familiar with that are late are ones that do not send overseas (as an MME, I know because I QA the ILPs).
Do you think that these hospitals refuse to send overseas and that MModal is going to say that the work was late because of lack of qualified US MTs, and that they should consider sending offshore?
all that red - alicem
[ In Reply To ..]I have noticed that too over the last few days, except the reds I am looking at are hospitals I haven't seen in months! and the ones I usually work on, usually are caught up. I wonder if they have sent stuff overseas and they can't keep up so they end up sending it back. Now, they realize what they have done by firing people or laying them off.
My main hospital was sent overseas - sm

How do you check your backlog? - NM

I think the US MTs are leaving MModal - lost
[ In Reply To ..]and thus a backlog because there is no incentive to work here anymore, especially after our "rewards" were just taken away, i.e., PTO for part-timers, changing the hours for shift differential, etc. I personally have lost so many accounts to India, I am at the point where I feel like "why bother working when my accounts will disappear soon anyway." Can't plan for the future because we don't know if we will have a future working here. It is to the point I am afraid to spend any money because I don't know if I will have a paycheck next week or be unemployed.
OT - ari
[ In Reply To ..]I think it is because they fired over 1300 part-time employees that were dependable and would stay on late or sign on early whatever was needed. Full-timers weren't suppose to ever get OT and that is where the part-timers helped. We didn't get benefits and were also willing to help out. So now they are paying full-timers OT to cover the work. Smart move M@Modal. The companies DON'T care and I am sure do not even know who is doing the work, they are probably being charged the same if the work is done here or in Indiana or Timbuktu.
OT - TD
[ In Reply To ..]They need OT because they are firing everyone. They fired me today after 11-1/2 years. I like your comment above - well said.

Backlog Updates -- What Are They For???
Jul 11, 2014
Can anyone explain what good backlog reports are or what purpose they serve. Its not like we can pick the hospitals that have the most reports, or we can work overtime to clear out the accounts, or we can jump on the system to clear something out if it is not our appointed work schedule.
