Anyone have post audits that is longer than 75 or 100 lines? - newbutold
Posted: Mar 10, 2015
I have gone back and looked at my post audits and since this new pay plan has gone into place, they have only 1 time edited a job that was over 100 lines (103 lines) all the rest are between 25 and 50 or so lines which I find quite ironic. They can say random all they want but this is in no way random. They pick the smaller reports so that even a 0.25 mistake has the biggest impact on us. Their games are so so petty for a so called company. They are clearly only out for themselves and do not care at all about us.
No, they select the short reports on purpose. - They are NOT RANDOM.
[ In Reply To ..]Our pay can be cut more substantially that way. They are too chicken____ to come out and call this new plan a pay cut, and they think we're too stupid to figure it out. They are the ones who are obtuse. They have no freaking idea just how intelligent we are. We see right through them. I would hate to be them on Judgment Day.
The week before last, I did --sm - anon
[ In Reply To ..]That week they edited over 400 lines of mine, versus normally doing under 100 for a week total, that was in the range of 5% lines audited, 2 of the reports were definitely over 100 lines. Last week, I was back down to under 100 lines audited. What I found in the difference of the 2 weeks is that they will still get me, whether it is long or short reports.
They have never done a long report on me - newbutold
[ In Reply To ..]I have been dinged for was/were, colon/comma, no "the", I have requested reversal for all and been denied. All are short reports so instead of 99 or over it lowers it to 97 to 98. They are so pathetic
Just had a 216-line report post-audited - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Long-winded surgeon... Thankfully I'm used to him and got 100% on my audit.

These Post Audits Are Getting Ridiculous
Jul 03, 2013
I've had 20 audits in 3 days now, all 99% or higher score with 1 critical error that was really a questionable typo I haven't had time to pull to see if I agree with....think of the money they'd save not QA'ing us to death here. I've been with the company for years, never failed audits and this is getting almost abusive by them to waste my time sending me this crap which I then have to spend my time, on my own cost, to research and challenge their mistakes in the a ...
Onshore Post Audits??/
Nov 10, 2013
Anybody getting these now?? Instead of just explaining my error or what they believe is an error - I am getting a 4 paragraph explanation for each one. I certainly don't mind criticism but I feel like I am being talked to like a 2 year old who has done something wrong. It is amazing to me how they hear something completely different than what I heard and I am told I should have left a blank if I felt there was a problem. Do they not realize that if I felt there WAS a ...
Has Anyone Else Been Getting 10 Times More Post Audits Than Usual??
Nov 30, 2012
I am getting audited 5 jobs a day at least. This is FAR FAR more than ever before. I used to get maybe 1 or 2 a week. I am also noticing much higher dings on these audits. In the same report I got an error for not ADDING an and that was not dictated and then got dinged for ADDING an and that had been dictated. Is this verbatim OR NOT!!! Anyway, it just seems that there is a A LOT more QA auditing happening than usual. Just me??? ...
Post Audits On Primary And Secondary....
Mar 14, 2013
I know 2 other MTs who have noticed the same thing. We have not had a single post audit on our primary accounts but let us do 5 reports on our secondaries and we'll get audited on it. We presume they do that trying to "get you" to keep you from getting the bonus for QA. For example I worked on my secondary Monday - first time in 2 weeks, did 3 reports and 1 got post audited on 1. ...
Reversals On Post Audits Are Virtually Impossible?
Aug 08, 2012
So from new info I just got, post audit scores are virtually impossible to reverse. So apparently the people in that deptartment, QA or QC - whicever it is, must be Goddesses as that would imply they never make mistakes. Our bonuses hinge entirely on these particular audits and they are WRITTEN IN STONE. I find this kind of outrageous. There is no human being who is perfect, so I have to assume that Nuance has hired this crew from Mt Olympus (I suppose they m ...

Is It True That FOCUS, Only Counts Half Of Your Lines When Calculating VR Lines?
Jan 30, 2012
if you make 4 cents per line at 1000 lines a day, they really calculate it at 500 lines per day x 4 cents, making it really 2 cents per line for the full 1000. I heard this, and I am really interested in knowing if it is true. ...
Told Nuance Was Overcharging For Lines, Now Lines Drastically Reduced
May 02, 2012
My main account was a good one, and the lines were very good, mostly ER work. I have been on this account for over a year and a half now. We recently received an e-mail stating that Nuance had discovered that the line count was charging incorrectly, as instituted by them, and they had been crediting us with MORE lines than we were actually doing and overcharging the client. Now get this, they informed us that they would not make US pay it back, for their mistake, but that our new lines would re ...
TransTech Lines - Required Hours But Are Short Lines?
Jun 10, 2011
What do you do when you have the required hours but are short lines? I got an email that I need to "make plans to have my shortage made up." The only problem is that I'm up to date with my hours for the pay period so far. The other problem is that I have plans Saturday night and Sunday (both being my scheduled time off) that don't include TransTech. It's getting harder and harder to defend this company when they can't hold up their end of the agreement and continually ...

TransTech Lines - How Many Lines Do You Average During The Day/week?

Just wondering if the TT MTs would like share ... how many lines do you average during the day/week? I'm doing about 9,000 to 10,000 a week and wonder if I should be pushing myself more. How much of your count is VR? I do probably 15% traditional and 85% VR but that, of course, varies week to week. ...

TransTech Lines - How Many Lines Do You Average Per Day
Jul 13, 2011
How many lines do you average per day - VR and traditional? I know it's been VERY slow lately, but when things are going well, how many lines do you normally get? I'm trying to figure out where the average numbers are. For me, I do about 350 trad and about 1400 VR in 8 hours. Well, my timesheet says 8 hours, but my clock says that number MAY(!) be a little higher. Again, these are numbers I pull when things are going well and I'm not waiting for work to download. I'v ...
No Longer With MM
Jun 27, 2015
I am so thankful that I am no longer with MM. I quit in May and it is the best decision I have made in a very long time. I got so tired of the unreasonable hours, the constant changing of hours/days. I got tired of the threats about quality (which is definitely unrealistic), then you get the threats about not having enough lines. I don't have to tell all of you what a terrible journey it is with MM. It is the kiss of death and it will never be any b ...

It won't be long now. Best of luck to those who chose to stay wit ...
Are We No Longer Getting Break Pay?

Anyone know? I know it's not a lot of money, but I usually get about 3 hours per pay period and about $30. I would hate to lose that, cause every dollar counts. ...

I Am No Longer A MT- Tomorrow Will

my new life of not dealing with trying to produce a medical report for a MTSO to look good and make profit. How things have changed in the medical world and it is getting ulgier by the day. The demands put on MTs are totally unreasonable. I am walking away because of retirement and I am thankful I can. I honestly do not know if I could survive under the stress of trying to produce perfection for such minimal pay and know that a MTSO is making as much as me for each line I ...
