If you keep not meeting their "metrics" - and of course just barely stay over


Posted: Jan 26, 2015

minimum wage what happens?  Do they lay you off or do they actually fire you?  The reason this is important is that not sure if I can get unemployment if they fire me.  If they just lay off, I'm not as worried, in fact, I wish they would.  Cannot win in any way with this place.

They will NOT lay you off. They will either - try and make your miserable or

fire you. Depending on your state, if they do fire you, you most likely will be able to collect. Just remember to start saving any emails or threats, etc from your TSM. If you end up quitting, you get nothing. Good luck.

I'm in CA - I just found out that I'd get UI - even if fired,

so that is relieving anyway. You would have to pretty much steal from the company, not report to work, or come to work high before you wouldn't get UI if fired. Thanks!

More Metrics. My God. I Wonder How Many

upper level people spend the majority of their time on metrics, raking in the big bucks, while they slash those of us actually earning the company money.  What's the point of all the statistics, metrics, charts, tables....... Get rid of unnecessary people & use that money to pay MTs better, thereby attracting the best of the best MTs & being able to retain happy employees, and your stats will automatically improve without hiring teams of people to analyze why what you're d ...

Quality Metrics Since The PODs
Feb 11, 2015

Is it just my accounts, or has anybody else noticed that their BOB/POD quality metrics have taken a nosedive since they started these PODs?  Previously, my BOB would be in the green constantly and we would get praise for it.  Now, all I ever see is red..too many criticals, too many major and minor errors.  Seems like this whole POD idea is working marvelously.  I hope they fail to meet contract and clients start dropping like flies.  Of course, that would be our fault. & ...


Performance Metrics Coming For Doctors

Interesting reading at family practice office this week, publication for Family Physician Practice, saying how software developers are working feverishly on new products for physician offices where they will choose their diagnoses and what-have-you from drop-down menu (yes, that will completely eliminate transcription). Problems arising already with "trials", where docs weren't making "right" choices with their documentation. (They were not taking enough time with modifiers, etc.) It ...


Checked Team Metrics For Personnel Changes

Checked listing from end of November and then the last one last week and found there were 1 less numbers listed. I thought more might have quit.  I guess the ones who did weren't under my TSM.  We have it pretty good compared to some. I mostly did this to see if new people were added to our team and causing low work but that doesn't seem to be it. Low work today... OOW and had too much time on my hands I guess. ...
