Well, I'm on my zillionish account today.

somewhere in the Mid West. The sound wasn't too bad, but I had a med student dictating who sounded like a child learning to read! You know how they sound out every word, which is normal for someone learning to read, but a med student! Her shortest report was 21 minutes, her longest was 37 minutes. I got 112 lines for that 37 minute report. I had five of the buggers, and on my fourth one, I lay my head down on my desk, feeling certain my mind had turned to oatme ...

New account starting up today. Anyone else giving it a shot? ...

I have an interview with them today for an SR Oncology account. Can anyone tell me how their SR platform is? ...

Would appreciate replies from anyone who's actually been through this - how long after it begins will we last? There are maybe 50 of us transcribers, all told. Thanks. ...

What a flippin joke. Didnt Amy say she was going to keep us in 1 account???? OMG, I have done evey account in my BOB this morning as well as some other Bob. I cant keep my head on straight anymore. It is spinning like a top. My production is down to minimum and I am at risk of being fired for not meeting production because some idiot decides to open the cesspool! GO CCMs! GET YOUR 100% TAT... SCREW THE REST OF US. ...

By this time in the day, usually, there has been at least 7 emails - several from QA, at least 2-3 backlog updates, and 1 reminder to work our shift and work our entire shift. ...

.... I read notes below to this effect. Oh, and don't forget to NOT count QC lines and scores when you calculate your QA score on FIESA. ...or just ignore it altogether. ...

So, I am trying to research per line rates in my area, and no one seems willing to open up about their rates. I have spoken with one woman from a local company who told me to give it up as I more than likely will never land an account and work for other established companies, also stating that I am not hiring right now, but you are more than welcome to submit your information. I replied stating to her that I am not a newbie as you say, I have been in this field since 2007, and wish to acquire my ...

Once i get used to the dictators and names, is it possible to reach the same production as when I was doing ops? I have access to prior reports, so that's helpful. I know I need to tweak my glossary to include more non-op terms. Any other productivity tips to make a non-op account super productive? ...

I am not sure if this is going on with your accounts, but I have noticed on my primary that there are a lot of old reports in there, from days and days ago. A few weeks back my team leader said ignore those TAT times because they were pulling old stuff for "training." It started with DS, and now I notice that there are old H&Ps and Consults in there. So I am wondering if they are training Transcend employees to do my account, maybe VR, or I guess it could be the hospital tr ...

Did anyone ever contact a hospital after your account was lost to find out where it went and you were still employed with the former MTSO that had the account. Concerned about doing this if the hospital were to contact the MTSO and still employed there but not overly happy anymore. I would rather keep this confidential until I at least find out if the new MTSO is even hiring for the account, etc. ...

We are supposed to do 12 reports/hour but the work is not there. I no longer respond to the e-mails where they say they want to help you get more work and not make peanuts. What joke! Not only that my lead has been on cherry picking when there is hardly any work. ...

My state medical association publishes a monthly journal with a Classifieds section at the back. There's a section for Services Available where there are ads for EMR companies, billing services, and a couple of private MT ads. A small ad would cost me about $45/month and it would also appear on the online edition. I'm just looking for 1 or 2 new clients right now, and thought this might be easier & cheaper than mailing out brochures. Do you think this is a good idea a ...

I am in discussion with a doctor's office to do their transcription. This would be the first time I would have my own account. How do I find out the going rate of transcription in my area? I would like to be prepared when discussing this with the office. Thanks in Advance! ...

out of work, AGAIN!! The other account I had has TONS of work this morning. I'm about to go back over there and get some lines in! Why take me off an acct that has TONS of work to an acct that has NO WORK?????? ...

Received email stating that one of my accounts which I was always under the impression was a very LARGE account will no longer be using Nuance. ...

QA & I've noticed the errors that QA finds are getting more petty to the point of ridiculousness just over the last couple of weeks. "The" when I heard "A" or "A" when I heard "the" - just sheer craziness. I assume they are gearing up for the 99.7% accuracy rate change. I figure I'm a goner soon, so I'm just typing my little fingers off in the meantime. Just my vent ...

Give me back my account please! ...

I cannot get anyone to answer my e-mails. Due to not answering my questions I will not be working extra. ...

is 3 days behind, don't you wonder why accounts you have never heard of are coming into your que? Not to mention, the accounts that are coming into the que are not out of turn around (i.e., are current almost up to the hour). ...and did I mention my account is three (3) days behind! How is this helping anyone? ...

Is anyone working on a new account with the first two initials RG? ...

I currently provide transcription to various speciality clinics using a call-in system for the dictation, typing in Word and uploading via FTP site. I was contacted by a hospital to do their transcription. They asked if my transcriptionists could type in their VPN program. Can anyone tell me how I would do QA on this then? This would be a new system to me and I really want the account. ...

You don't know who the managers are, or even what division is falls under, and the old managers don't have a clue, how does one escalate to find out? MTQuestions? Tossed to the wolves here..but hey hey, I still have work! LOL. Slowly losing my mind on trying to get answers while restructuring in in progress. I've learned too much from the past that patience is not always a virtue. Things get lost in the shuffle. Anyone ever had this happen to them? Any suggestions. ...

Ouir BOB lost another large account and now there are too many MTs. So, about 8-12 are being moved. The account that I transcribe is going to be almost 100% ASR, and the account is being transferred to the Canadian MTs. Apparently the poor Canadians don't have enough work. They do, however, get free health insurance. Now we not only have to worry about the Indians, but the Canadians too. I can guarantee they are being paid less. ...

pain in her "disoriusembi ciftom"? on her arm? ...

Last week I was told that the account I was working on went to EMR and they do not need any of the MTs on that account anymore. :( I have been sending out my resume but no bites. I have 12 years of MT experience. Where are the jobs? ...

You know, the one that started just a couple of weeks ago or so. Just wondering how it is. Dictators good? ...

you just edited their VR program? What software would you need/use and how would they send it to you, etc. Moving out-of-state and thinking of ways to get new business. Thanks in advance for any help! ...

Well, I'm on my zillionish account today. - Life in the cesspool.
