Mmodal inevitable termination for low audit scores.... - DPassi


Posted: Jul 14, 2014

Hi!  I was hoping for a little input.  I have been with Mmodal/Medquist/Spheris since 2005.  They have the new quality standards which seem to be out of reach for me. They want us to be at an unreasonable 99.7.  Even today, received last week's audit scores and one was 100% the other at 98.75.  I am on my 3rd corrective action for this and know I am at close to the end of my rope.  I actually would like to go back to school.  Has anyone been unintentionally fired for this and been able to collect unemployment?  I am hoping to be able to hang on through the humiliation and eventually use it to my advantage!  I appreciate any helpful comments!  Thanks!  Laughing

Oh you CAN collect unemployment if they fire you for this reason... - Kiki

Unless you do something blatant like steal from the company, not show up for work, drug/alcohol problems, etc. Don't let them make you feel humiliated...they ARE unreasonable.

They're passing out Corrective Actions like Halloween candy. - Teardrop

There are a lot of us going through this. Betcha the other world-wide services are grinning through their evil teeth just waiting to gobble us up. But yes, you'll get unemployment. The company, after all, changed our conditions of employment. We were innocent, and will get unemployment, food stamps, Medicaid maybe.

Thank you for making me not feel alone! - DFRSB

It is almost like they are trying to "bully" us into doing a better job when in fact we were actually fine in the first place. The audits are so unreasonable and nit picky. It is ridiculous!! Thanks for the kind responses. If I get fired I look forward to unemployment and changing my career path! Thank you again and good luck!!!!
Im trying to get fired,,lets see how long it takes - sm

any ideas to speed the process? I need to go back to college, the extra money from U/E would help
They know we're already doing our best. They're - trying to bully us into QUITTING.

Don't let them make you do it. Let THEM do it, so they'll have to fork out the green stuff for your unemployment benefits.
Agreed! - DFRSB

That is what I am hoping for! LOL Have had an awful week so far....different work pooling in that I am unfamiliar with. I will probably get dinged on audits! If I fail July will be in "Final" stage. I have saved ALL documentation including copies of my corrective actions with me stating the patient arrives I would never make these mistakes "on purpose" etc. I am ready and loaded for the UE office!

For Years I Always Had High Audit Scores

like most of us, a buyout. Loved the company I worked for. Then Nuance took over-changes being made-my scores started going down.

Yet, in the last couple of months I have had more errors and some major errors that even a rookie MT would not be making, let a lone an experienced one. No, I am not perfect and n ...

Do QC Reports Count For Our Post Audit Scores?
Jan 27, 2015

Last week, I had a great QA score.  I only had a couple of reports sent to QC - none of which were problematic. However, today, I had a horrible ESL report with multiple blanks.  I had to send it to QC.  They not only filled in the blanks, but graded me on it -- a whopping 96.2.  UGH!  Is that going to be counted among my post audit score for my pay rate?? ...

I just got terminated today after working for over 2 years with no problems with quality.  All of a sudden they kept auditing me and for sure they found 1 error that would be the reason for my terimination.  Has anyone else been terminated? Spoke to the operator to return my equipment and she said she has a long list of people that were terminated and she was sure that she could find my name on that list. .  Can a company have you submit vacation time because they have no work for ...

Wrongful Termination?

Has anyone ventured towards anything like this?  I feel VERY strongly that I was wrongly terminated, but I really do NOT want to work for the company anyway, but with no income, I am not sure what to do.  I do not like the fact of them getting away with what they have done either... Anyone gone down this route or had any thoughts of it? I do not want to ruin future chances of me getting employment and wondering if this would lean towards that if I decided to proceed. I've never ...

Fired For Low QA Scores : )
Oct 15, 2009

I am a medical transcriptionist with over 15 years of experience, and I was fired today for low audit scores.  I don't know why I am happy about this.  I guess I am just relieved to get away from a company that picks apart their employees.  What are they going to do when there is no one left?  Ironically, I have worked in many big hospitals and while our reports were reviewed, this would have never happened working in a hospital.  Does anyone know what is happening ...

I was just wondering why you were supplied a computer, if there was no need to use one of theirs. ...
