is able to finish a complete sentence without losing their thought or incessantly repeating themselves because they keep losing their place. It's getting annoying. I've done about a 1/2 dozen reports so far and NOT ONE has been just a normal dictation. I'm wondering if all these doctors are unable to focus on the task at hand because of what is going on in Washington right now or if it's just a fluke. I mean, I have never encountered anything like this ...

Hi, Someone was kind eough to answer a question regarding health benefits for me, but I forgot to ask what the deductible is for a single individual, full-time. I would appreciate this if anyone knows! ...

I've been an MT for years (about 10). I've worked subcontracting for many companies, local docs and my local hospital. I've worked for probably 10 internet companies on a temp basis to help with overflow (usually covering summer vacations). I've never had just one company, always several, so if one was out of work, another could provide. Of all the companies I have worked for... I like MedQuist the best... I know I'm alone in this apparently, but ...

All you have to know how to do is type really fast. At least that is what I've been told by a couple of staffing companies. (I don't agree with this by they way). Just thought it was odd that this is how medical transcription is viewed by some these days. ...

I have tried for over 3 hours today to make my "elecions" for insurance to NO avail. Of course, no one answers the phone to help you OR responds to e-mail request for help. How much more difficult can this be. When I hit the "submit" button NOTHING happens. Screen locks up. I am surrendering this fiasco for tonight. Hopefully, I can find somebody tomorrow that will help me. Apparenlty, I am to dense to do this. ARGH!!!!!! I just feel like everything ...

So we get the email today that the QC is overloaded with her job and to please utilize the style guide and BOS and other Mmodal goodies rather than calling or emailing her. You know Mmodal/Shaw, if we actually were allowed to contact other MTs on our same accounts we wouldn't need to contact our QC every time the client decides to make exceptions for each doctor and it never gets added to the CP or we just cannot figure out what that doc is saying. But apparently we are truly on our o ...

$30 less today than when it has been mixed straight and ASR typing and it has been the longest day of my life. I have eaten more, got up more. I cannot sit still. If this is supposed to be "easier" on us than typing, they are full of hooey. ...

than I am, to explain to me how, when I am told to take my lph divided by 2 and my overall lines for the day and divide by 2, how we are getting paid for all the lines we do. I'm curious how that is explained so people see that they are actually getting paid for all the lines. For example, I am told that I need to figure C-LPH which is basically my lph divided in half. So if I am able to edit 250 lph, for the grid that is equivalent to 125 clph. Then my total lines are di ...

cannot figure out the word Xarelto even though it's seen it corrected tens of thousands of times by now, it has decided that word is "femoral tunnel." Not even remotely close! The doctors/administrators who are drooling over the thought of VR cutting us out would be in shock to see what it actually cranks out. ...

I have just learned. ...

M Modal cesspool, but not quite that bad. They are prioritizing stats from all of your secondary accounts in front of your primary, making it harder obviously to produce lines. Did anyone get the email about this? I am wondering if this is a Nuance thing that is now being introduced? I know why companies do this, it is to their benefit, and they care nothing about us, but it just infuriates me as another kick in the face to MTs and lack of caring about anything but ...

I have made 3 schedule changes in the last year and I think I am pretty much done. It seems that they are working with capacity planning to insure work for everyone so guess what that means..mandatory schedule changes once again. So sick of this. Quit hiring, then maybe we wouldn't need mandatory schedule changes. Just a thought! ...

I have watched with horror what you transcribed. You have moved on. I wish I could publicize your name and warn every MTSO in the sound of my voice about the destruction you cause. If anyone deserves having their keyboard banned for life, it is you. It's time you retire and stop desroying lives. Thank you for the chance to give the clients a better report now that you are gone. ...

I also am wondering how much would be taken out of my check for the health insurance for just myself. Thanks! ...

.. we get an automatic score of 99.0%. I have one report in there on 12/3 but no reports for the pay week of 12/6-12/12, so they assigned me a score of 99.0%. The one report that is in there from 12/3 is higher than that. I have no idea what they base this 99.0% score on. I guess this is just a number that felt right to them, so they went with it. I'm not the only one with no audited reports for the pay week and a 99.0% score. This must be an automatic score you receive if you have no audti ...

that are sent to QA, the ones you are forced to send due to the client wanting all reports QA's, a certain dictator, etc....I was just reading in the "Rewards" Plan that these reports are NOT counted towards our QA submission . I have read posts here where MTs were frustrated because they thought they WERE. Please read (I think page 10 but not sure) where it says they are NOT. If you feel yours are counting against you, copy and paste the paragraph and send it to your CCM. ...

I started a second job for extra money and so I'm on 100% QA. I keep getting feedback for what I consider to be the most inane reasons. I am old school. When a dictator starts as sentence "patient is here for..." I type "The patient is here for ...." So QA has pinged me several times for not typing "verbatim." So I've tried to be very conscious and listen very closely. Now I've gotten feedback where I clearly thought I heard patient, typed ...

I just want to send a message to all you hard-working, single mommies out there. I was in your shoes and had to make a living doing transcription to support my young family. I want you all to know I admire you, and I know how hard it is to do what you do, especially with the changing times in our career. When I read your posts, it breaks my mommy heart all you single moms giving so much of themselves to support their families. Let's not forget these mommies still ne ...

has been eating and chomping and slurping and slobbering and mucking up every single report. Hour into my shift and I have a throbbing headache.

What would happen if every single MT stopped transcribing for one day? How much money would they lose? ...

Maybe Monday the TTS MTs and managers will come to play? Seriously, how many MTs are employed by TTS? I never heard of it till lately. ...
