lots of time spent on ADT

I saw this on the Nuance board. What am I missing here? It really looks like, according to the Dept of Labor, that we should be paid at least minimum wage for our time waiting for a job to pop up, and not just a lousy 15 mins per day. See the section under "waiting time." http://www.dol.gov/whd/regs/compliance/whdfs22.htm ...

How is that even remotey fair? ...

explaining why I billed what I did on an invoice. This MD pays by the hour. He set the hourly wage and now I have to justify why it took as long as it did. This is a new physican whom I have worked for for only 2-3 weeks in a specialty that is new to me in a state I don't live in. Anyone else ever have to do this? ...

typing 8 referring physicians and full addresses in cc because NONE of them were listed in their directory. FREE! You are welcome MModal! Last week, I had typed 1100 seconds before the doctor said, "delete all that!" FREE! Again, you are welcome MModal! When will they be done lying to get "new blood" so I can get fired already? ...

I am such a good transcriptionist, but so very unqualified for anything else. Even cashiers need "previous experience." There was a housekeeping job at a local hospital and a "valet parking attendant." Surely I can clean and park? ...

Holy Crow....I knew there were changes made, but didn't think that everything changed. Nothing on the screen looks the same, starting with the log-in screen which is the only thing that looks simple to use. There are stupid panels everywhere, top, bottom, left side, right side, and the poor text screen is kinda squished in the middle. It looks waaaay more complicated than how it is now. I just want to cry. I really had no idea that it is basically going to invo ...

It really hurts the line count bad. So far, I have had a lot of documents that require quite a bit of formatting - H&Ps, consults and ER reports from several facilities with each having different requirements and everyone wanting the ROS and PE different. Also, lack of punctation is hurting a lot too. I can't wait until I get out of here. Just 8 more months and counting! ...

OK - I'm a straight typing transcriptionist who wants to explore VR - seems most people hate it - I'd like to try it and see. My company doesn't offer it. Are there any companies what have editing on Bayscribe currently? What is the best VR platform to work on and which is the worst? (Don't know the difference in any of them) Have heard of Speechmagic for Bayscribe (but who has it?) eScription and Exeditor at Transtech (? where else) and how's that? and ...

O.K. I have checked out the 3 schools that were recommended. Two of them require 45 wpm I am not that fast yet. How important is this? Approximately how much money can you earn in an 8 hr day doing office notes? When a company test you are they looking for a 45 wpm or better to hire you? Thank you grannieof1 ...

A job dribbles in here, a couple hours later a job dribbles in there. [Sigh!] A person can only file their nails for just so long ------ !! ...

I have noticed Accentus has been hiring pretty consistently, it seems, since maybe November. Anyone know what's up? MTs jumping ship or new accounts on the way? Just wondering, since they were bought out a year or so ago. I have been thinking of applying with them for a while but don't want to walk into the middle of a messy transition. Thanks in advance! ...

Really enjoy transcribing Ops, but Ops have dribbled to few and far between and mostly brief reports on my accounts. Whatever happened to all the detailed op notes I used to get. Bored to tears with H&P, DS, and consults. TIA. ...

All of sudden there's lots of work. Seems to be no end to it. It just keeps flowing and flowing. I hope it stays this way. I wonder what happened. ...

I have been on this report for 2 days now. I have managed to figure most of it out but I am really lost on one paragraph. After she dictates all the information under Physical Examination she goes into another paragraph describing more of the patient's symptoms. Is there supposed to be heading before that paragraph? Also, below is a few sentences from that paragraph that I just cant make out. Any help would be great. Thanks again. Tone is normal no clog whealing. Degenerative reflexes ar ...

1. Under procedure, doctor dictates BMP collagen was used. It is ok to abbreviate BMP or does it need to be expanded? 2. She was transferred to the prone position ______ (s/l an aquired) frame? 3. We carefully exposed the subcutaneous tissue and we _______ (s/l sub crossed) the dissection off the level _______ (s/l synchreala) and the transfer processes of the L5, we exposed the spine. I know this is probably a mess. =( I am new at transcribing and really new at Op reports.&n ...

I have an interview with Transcend on Monday and have read conflicting stories on this board about whether or not Transcend MTs run out of work. Some you are saying you never run out; some say they hardly ever run out, and some say running out of work is a problem for them. What's the story on this? Also, how is the health insurance? Thanks for any info you have! ...

very rare that I get 100 straight typing lines a day, let alone 400 anybody else? ...

She uses lots of tampons and this is definitely a "claudiolise ssue" ?? ...

Mmodal is sorry they got rid of all those dreadfully horrible, worthless, and incompetent MTs who could not score 99.6% on an audit. The 20 or so who could are undoubtedly overwhelmed. Serves them right! ...

as they ramp up for summer. Having people off means we have to work harder and more OT because we've just been having such an easy time of it. Warnings and threatenings. All they know. Turn around times not being met? It's because we're so lazy. Hiring all the time? Still not enough staff; never enough staff. Cheery picking; never addressed. Rotten VR; never addressed. Never knowing what work, which doctors, or work types your're going to be doing anymore; never addressed. Co ...

I am glad to see that some kind of movement is finally happing regarding a decent minimum wage. But something else I'd like to say is that I read somewhere (not here, but on the Huffington Post or somewhere) that Chelsea Clinton said she "does not care about money." Then the article went on to say that she and her husband Mark just bought an apartment in New York City around Gramercy Park for 10.5 MILLION DOLLARS. Nice to not have to be able to care about money. We'd just l ...

Never use to see that many ads for them now they have one every single week. Are they that busy? Lots of new accounts or what? ...

Have you noticed more doctors are chewing and slurping while dictating lately? It just dawned on me today, probably some non-MT employees are treating the doctors to Christmas candy at their dictation stations. I used to see that a lot when I worked in hospitals. Ugh! ...
