job for MT in Tennessee office?? - confused

Posted: Jun 09, 2012

I saw a post on here from a few days ago and just had to ask is this really for an inhouse job? I thought they did away with inhouse jobs. the post did say $15 an hour. Maybe we can hope that will be our pay in the compensation package?? I know that is a far fetch but one can only hope that there is some relief coming.

I know... how can they pay someone hourly - to do MT in the office

while the rest of us have to work on production. Class action suit anyone?

yes, plese - any reason to file suit

It was probably for something other than transcriptionist, folks. Clerical, administrative, etc.

Maybe an MT job in Tennesee but - not at MModal?

This is posted in MTJobs email - an MT job in MModal office

I wasn't aware that they ever had MT jobs in the corporate office. $15.00/hour.

job specifies working as tier 2 or 3 MT in corporate office in TN at $15 per hour, not receptionist, clerical, etc. I would like to know what's up with that.

The ad doesn't say you will be working IN the Tennessee office, it says FROM that office. The email address given at the bottom of the post Has Right Thing Inc in it, which after some searching turns out to be a staffing/recruiting agency. So, this is obviously posted by a recruiter hired by MModal.

Why they are offering $15 an hour, however, is certainly a slap in the face to those of us who are making half of that! That's the part that angers me.

If it's for MT through M*Modal and a new hire that is INDEED a slap in the face. Had they offered that to me I would have been able to STAY with them, and after 10-plus years as an MT I felt I was worth AT LEAST that. Maybe, just maybe they are getting a reality check? Doubt it will do much good, and knowing what I know now doubt I'd be able to trust them enough to return to work for them; however, it would help all who are still here. Me, I'd live in fear of getting another "pay adjustment/Reward" Email in a few weeks/months after being rehired even!

If you type for the VA Hospitals they pay a min hourly rate - However, sm

whatever company you are working for will pay you whatever a line and require you do enough to make 15 an hour..Usually give you 6 mo to a yr to get up to speed..At least the company I worked for..Their system stunk and I left, too stressful

When I worked for in-house at the VA for - mbmt

another company, we got paid by the line, not by the hour. It is according to the MTSO.

Just asked supervisor - What a crock

Just sent an email to supervisor. Would be nice if this is the new base rate. Sorry, don't know what I was thinking.

Was told that it was in house, and that the rate was based on fact that MT had to show up in dress attire, work schedule and weekend, and would be working directly for facility (kind of like contract work). This is what I was told by supervisor. Don't we all have to work a schedule, and don's most of us work on the weekend? I don't get it. Asked that my concerns be forwarded to correct department, and waiting to hear back. Doesn't seem fair to me. Especially for just 1 year experience.

Still have not heard anything back. Supervisor forwarded my concerns, but I guess the company doesn't give a hoot. What a slap in the face when a newbie makes twice that of someone with 10 years in. Am now hunting for new job. This company stinks.

Numerous cc's not in the database which have to be added, address and all. Short reports, of course, that take 3x longer than the dictation time. Just shoot me now.

Hi, Does anyone have any tips on how to keep the providers organized? I have one provider I transcribe for who never sends his work and then says he sent it when he didn't. I don't have any problems with the other seven providers, just one. When he does send the work, he always says "this is lost dictation" or "this was dictated and sent a second time". This has been going on for almost six years. I take pride in my work and really enjoy it until I get his work. I always say I can&# ...
