IMPOSSIBLE to make a living working at Nuance. - Just ran out of work on 5 accounts.

Can you make a living working for IMEDX. They said they pay 4 cpl for editing and 8 cpl for straight typing with an 80% editing and 20% straight typing account. That does not seem like you could make a living. Just wondering. ...

I am just flying along thinking I am doing great. The numbers just don't seem to be going up. I think after 8 hours I SURELY made at least $100, but when I figure it, nope. How can this be? ...

I have been put on 3 new accounts this week and I have been having a hell of a time making any lines at all this week. Now, I hardly get any work from my old account. Any suggestions on what I can do to improve my line count? ...

Is it just me or are these companies making it impossible to make any money the way the line count is set up? I can type all day and make very close to minimum wage. It never was this way before. ...

I haven't made by 80 hours per pay in quite a long time (almost a year). I sure there are some of you out there, too. They must not mind paying their portion of my benefits from health insurance to life insurance, STD, an on. What is up with that? I have never had a call saying I have to make my hours up or get called on the carpet for only sometimes putting in 50 hours or less. I just don't get it! ...

I just had a baby 6 weeks ago and I am trying to start back working which I am finding impossible. I posted about this before I had my baby and a lot of you said that it was possible to work with a newborn......How!? I am so stressed out because I need to start back working because we need the money but everytime I try to she starts crying or needs something. For those of you who have experience with this, how did you work with a newborn in the house? Please any tips and ...

I have worked as a radiology transcriptionist for over ten years . My pay has been cut in half and jobs are hard to find. I take tests and no one calls back. I usually only have their email anyway. I am now learning acute care because it seems for last few years it has been the only game in town. However, I cannot believe how hard it is and I am getting paid the same as radiology. It's becoming impossible to afford to live on this income, but I ...

I just accepted a job at AllType and the majority of my account is VC. I have not dropped my other position I had as IC and no VC. I am wondering, as this is my first time ever doing VC, can you really make a living at this? I know I will NEVER make a fortune at this job but an 800+ paycheck every 2 weeks would sure be desirable. Thanks. ...

I am thinking about going to The Andrews School to become an MT. I have taken the pre enrollment exam and they said i passed with a score of 84%, which i think is pretty good for not knowing what im doing. But, today i was surfing the web and seen a post from someone that was ranting about how the school is a scam and after they completed the course they got a job where they had to work 60-70 hours per week and only get paid 3 cents per line. So, i was wanting to know if there is any Andre ...

Experienced MTs please tell me, can a person actually make a living at this. I am a newbie, working from home for the last 4 months. I am feeling very discouraged by my paychecks. I am just barely making minimum wage after working a full time schedule. I like the work, but if I can't support myself doing this what is the point? I would love to hear from those of you who have been doing this long term. Thanks. ...

I understood the problem with this MTSO over the winter with the horrible weather, but now? I can hardly keep up with my bills as is. ...

So sad what this profession has come to. I am 57 years old, have been MT for 25+ years, always been a high producer with good QA scores. I made a really good living until January 2013 when Nuance acquired company, I chose not to accept their terms of employment. Went to another US based company (?) part time. Just did income tax and was shocked. Needless to say, I will not renew my contract again. It's just not worth the aggravation anymore. The incentive and production bonuses ...

I quit my in-house MT job, a job that I had held for almost 20 years, a little over a year ago because of a new boss who drove me and about 10 other people to quit because she was so hard to work for. I thought long and hard about it before I quit, but could not see myself putting up with her for the next 10-15 years until I could retire. She was making some of us physically ill because of stress. I believe we may have been "creatively downsized". Since I q ...

I have known this for all the years that I have been in this business, but unfortunately I came face to face, so to speak, with this problem again recently. I stated a point to my supervisor by e-mail, and very nicely, about some technical difficulties I was having, and no matter how I would explain it, she did not understand what I said. Even the tech told her that it was not due to my computer, but the connection I had. She said she would call me, and I said I would look ...

Over the past few months, the account that I am on has gone from being at least half straight typing to almost all VR, with only a very small handful of dictators that are still on straight transcription. I am having a really hard time making a living since this has happened and my paychecks keep getting smaller and smaller. I am wondering if anyone else is in the same situation, or if it's just me. My account is a pretty busy one, but most of these VR reports are a comple ...

Is anyone able to make a living on the Futurenet MModal platform? My pay has decreased by 3/4s. ...

Since we were acquired by the big N, "We" are on the old platform, not Dragon. I don't get any reports that have templates or normals. The account has thousands of doctors. This is as much as I can possibly make under these parameters. So running our "salary calculator," it comes out to $8.50 an hour. I was making twice this 2 years ago for same company before it was acquired. ...

I transcribe reports, do ASR reports and I also do MME work. I find it impossible when I an constantly "switching gears" every day on 5-6 accounts to maintain a decent production. How can anyone keep up with knowing all the CP's and keeping track of all the details of each account plus do the production we are supposed to do? If someone has a suggestion, let me know. We keep getting all these e-mails from QC regarding a complaint from a customer ...

and correct the doctor before mistakes are made or ASR populates incorrect words/phrases....unfrigginbelievable ...

Relatively new. Did not make the required line count one week. Is this a biggie or are you okay as long as you average out for payperiod? What might I expect? ...

I can do it most of the time, but every now and then I miss it, sometimes by as much as 20 lines per hour. I have had 1 email asking that I use my time more productively and make the line count. I actually do use my time as productively as I can. I admit, although I have done this for years, I am not great with VR editing. Also, with the high standards and deductions in FIESA, I really listen and listen again to much of my transcription so I don't fall below wanted numbers there. I am doing ...

I have been out of transcription for roughly 2-1/2 years but need to get back to work. I am going back to school to get some add'l training this fall but in the meantime need a job. They are recruiting right now and wondered if someone could tell me something about being an at-home transcriptionist for them?? Any info would be greatly appreciated; thanks!!!! ...

So I hear a lot about how there is no work at Nuance now because they are over hiring and that they are a "nightmare" to work for. Is there anyone working there now that likes it and isn't having any problems? ...

Is there anything positive about working for Nuance? What's it like working on the eScription and Dictaphone ExText platforms? What are your average line counts on those platforms? I can average 400+ lph working on a clinic account, but I get to use lots of word expanders and templates, it's all straight typing as well. I read somewhere they just made cuts in pay, was that across the board and how much of a cut was it? I read that they start out at 4 ...

and I don't know why. I have always been able to see an ad, respond to it, and have the job and the schedule I wanted now I'm not even getting responses to resumes and I'm wondering if it's because I'm so close to retirement. I haven't worked that many places that it looks like I'm job jumping so I can't think of anything else and I'm getting a little nervous. I need a second job really bad! ...

Since they constantly bounce us back and forth, forcing us to choose between production and quality, which have you chosen? Or aren't you there yet? I have chosen quality. At least for the moment. I think I'm getting just as whacko as they are. Signed, Present MUP Collector ...

Whoever is even thinking of trying to work for Nuance Transcription, should think again! They are always running out of work and pay sucks big time! They have a new pay system where you are docked for almost everything! You have to meet 99% quality, which is no problem, as you should be meeting that anyway, but then they check your reports, always short ones and if they find an error, especially a major one, that docks your score way down, which in turn docks you pay, plus they then take y ...

Just wondering. Nuance bought out my old company a while back, and I have always worked Monday through Friday. Now all of a sudden they say we HAVE to work either Saturday or Sunday EVERY WEEK. My question is, if I had said no to the weekend as I was hired Monday-Friday, could they have fired me? ...

Can someone give me at least a ballpark figure for the course? I don't want to send and email and/or call just yet....still not even sure I can afford to do this. :) Thanks! ...

i, too, like a couple others on here right now, am wondering what if any transcription companies still out there are good to work for. ...

It makes perfect sense..... - nana7

They've been doing it for years this way. Hire, hire, hire, - then fire, fire, fire.
