Soooo many of MModal's problems could be solved ... - anon

If they would just learn the definition of the word, "flexibility". Instead of being flexible to let us do our work to the best of our capability, they always seem to default to "force" and "mandate".
In terms of the "mandatory" weekend and night shifts, why not give the same choice of Sun-Thurs or Tues-Sat work week that all the other MTSOs have with a 12-hour window for your 8-hour shift? That way, everybody wins.
The MTSO wins because the weekend shifts will be covered and they would know that you are committed to 8 hours of work on those days. Sometimes you might decide to work in the mornings, sometimes at night, but they would have the coverage.
WE win because even though we are scheduled to work a weekend day, we know we have some "weekend flexibility" to spend time with our families and have a life outside of work as long as we work 8 hours in that 12 hour window.
Soooo many other companies are going to that. Why does MModal ALWAYS seem to default to using "force"? They honestly wouldn't have to do that, if they used a little creativity and forward-thinking. They might SAY they're an "industry leader" but there are other companies leaps and bounds more progressive than they are.
So true! - Trampled underfoot
[ In Reply To ..]Some TSMs are pretty understanding about people needing to slide their schedule around a bit to accommodate life, but the official policy of MModal is more along the lines of locking you into a set schedule with no wiggle room.

[ In Reply To ..]We are the ones who make them the money. They need to seriously listen to us, take ideas from us. We do this day in, day out, all day. We know what is needed to make our jobs easier. A happy employee is a productive employee.
They should start with these:
1. CP's need to be standardized.
2. Night/evening shift differential.
3. Weekend differential.
4. Production bonuses.
5. Quality bonuses.
6. Repopulated fields in ADT fixed.
7. GIVE US BACK OUR 3 DAYS OF PTO.
8. STOP TAKING AND START GIVING.
That is just a start.
fix the spell check - so it does not stop

Truer words never spoken! - poorhouse
[ In Reply To ..]Happy employees=productive employees!
Greedy employers=piece of crap product.
So be it.
You're right. The DEMAND mode is awful. Humans - sick and tired of being sick and tired

Y'all will love this! - Reprimand e mail
[ In Reply To ..]for clocking in one (as in 1) minute late. I kid you not. Not meeting schedule compliance. I laughed so hard I almost spit coffee out on my computer screen.
I'd be embarrassed to send - that email nm

They think we are stupid - just saying
[ In Reply To ..]That is why they will never give any credence to any suggestions MTs make. Oh they may pretend to care with things such as the yearly survey or supposed MT groups that have the President's ear, but in reality they think they know better how to make our working experience better and any suggestions made by employees are dismissed. They focus on training sessions we don't need and restructuring and then wonder why their employee turnover is so high.

Anyone Using MModal
May 19, 2011
and noticing that it is really not doing a good job lately. I've not usually had problems with it when it comes to regular English-speaking doctors, but this week it has been a mess. It is either not putting in entire sentences or putting in off the wall stuff that sounds nothing like what is being said. I've come to expect that with ESL, but certainly not with English as native language. Weird. Must be taking some time off for MT week. ...

Who in their right mind would give their SS# to a company that hasn't even hired them yet. I agree with the rest of you. RUN SALLY RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN ...
MModal, WHY????
May 24, 2012
Why is MModal posting job openings, when so many of use are running out of work or worse falling into the pool--what with the pay cuts, VR being paid half even though it takes nearly as long to edit most reports, and the fact that I only get my "primary" accounts about 30% of the time and the rest of the time I am typing from the pool so that nearly every report that comes up is a new facility or dictator, I have gone from making $16 an hour to minimum wage. I cannot afford this. Why can' ...

I see so many complaints about MModal. Does anyone actually like them? I'm in the hiring process and they are calling with an offer. I would like to try it out. I work in-house now, but eventually my position will be eliminated due to VR. I do not make that great of pay, and have lots of down time, but still have to sit in the office all day. I know that all companies have their ups and downs. My hospital being Union makes doing anything impossible and makes it easier to keep the "bad ...
What Has Mmodal Done To Me?
Apr 12, 2013
Well, I suppose any transciption job would do the same. Before this profression, I was a good little girl who would never swear or cuss and even chastised others for doing so, but since becoming an MT (especially with MModal), with all these horrendous dictators and this buggy platform, if you listen from outside my office, you'd think someone locked a surly sailor with Tourettes in with me. I've called dictators names that would make a construction worker blush. I al ...

Ex-MModal
Sep 16, 2013
Left MModal 18 mos. ago and have been on here encouraging everybody that there is life after MQ/MM. This week my wonderful clinic goes live with EMR. The trainer won't even recognize transcription. He is just adamant that the docs will enter everything themselves and when they don't, he is pushing Dragon Medical. So I guess I was wrong. I really thought I found a way out, but apparently not. It was a great year and a half though. ...
WOW MModal Is The New UPS
Oct 16, 2013
There is one area we do plan to adjust for 2014 which we expect will impact a very small percentage of our employees. If your spouse or domestic partner works and is eligible to receive health benefits in another qualified plan in 2014, you will be subject to a $100 per month surcharge if you elect to include them in the M*Modal healthcare plan. Keep in mind that this cost applies only to working spouses and domestic partners, not to children or other dependents ...

I am so sick of Mmodal. I resigned recently and I keep getting letters to return things that I have never ever owned or received or stuff that I had sent back to them years ago. The DEPOT apparently is as ignorant as the rest of them. SO glad I found real job that pays, respects and appreciates their employees. I have only one PC to return and they sent me five boxes and a bunch of labels and stating that I have in my possession 7 different things.... OMG.. what a joke!!! ...

can you specify exactly what laws they have broken? Yes, we are all unhappy here, but I cannot see that they have done anything they cannot do legally. The last judgment against them was for witholding pay. I think they are too smart to break laws again. What do you expect to gain anyway by suing a company that has filed bankruptcy, which is always a very smart business move to make if you can get away with it. ...

I refused to work OT last week, gave them my reasons. I think we should all let them know how we feel rather than just venting on here!

They cut our PTO, increased our insurance premiums, no rate increases ever yet they expect us to jump through hoops to get the backlog down. For who??? Certainly doesn't benefit us, but gives them a ...

It took a stupid pill.

These companies pay for their stuff to be run through this ridiculous program. Why are the bosses allowing this low quality to come through unless they own part of mmodal. Does not make sense. ...
