Thanks, Nuance for taking all my working and giving it to offshore

Is it true that Nuance sends their work offshore? If so, that tidbit of information may save our jobs. ...

Don't you just want to throw up! Especially the comment about the draft already being 85-90% correct! ...

and the other 70% are in for a very rude awakening. ...

We learned today that our transcription department is being eliminated and Nuance will be taking over. However, Nuance has kindly agreed to offer employment to us, promising that our first choice will be our hospital account. I think they are full of it and are just telling the hospital (and us) what they think we need to hear, and that one should run, and not walk, away from their job offer. Thoughts? ...

So, I used to work Monday through Friday, which is what I was hired for. Fast forward to Nuance taking over and I was forced to change my schedule to include a weekend day, and this is the 4th weekend in a row, there is no work. Makes sense, huh? ...

A legal contact was inquiring about the connection of medical mistakes related to off-shored transcription mistakes. I have told him to review these boards and hopefully he will benefit from the information here. While he did not discuss the exact case, I think that he will be able to use the off-shore transcription issue to his client's benefit or at least highlight that the provider in question does not have as rigorous control on processing records as other pr ...

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? ...

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. ...

I truly just hate ever day that I have to work for them. The days are sooooo long and seem never-ending. Fifteen years of 99%+ accuracy and now I need a mentor? Really? WTH? Switch me to a new, more difficult account and after 1 week tell me I suck so bad I have to be mentored? Provide me with no list of physician names or local cities or names of local hospitals and expect my LPH to be up and running at full speed when I spend all my time Googling for info on an ar ...

Anyone else having trouble? I wanted to email my tsm but i get: Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to mail.nuance-nts.com Did you mean: nuance-nts.com ...

25 years ago, I had an hourly wage of $11.50 (before I got into transcription), while the minimum wage was $3.35. So I was making 3x minimum wage. Fast forward to Nuance today, my salary is $7.25, minimum wage. (BTW, this is my very first minimum wage job of my entire lifetime, back to when I worked as a teenager in the 1970s). Plus, the medical benefits are awful, and 25 years ago they were good, along with entirely paid by employer. And, Nuance feels the need to employ an a ...

What ever bird brain came up with the idea to work OT for PTO is a real gem. I have 6 accounts and have been OOW for going on 2 days now. Thanks, Nuisance, for the pleasure of working for you. ...

So you need help on this account so far out of TAT you're in danger of losing it. Sounds like people are deserting. Maybe if they lose a few accounts they'll get the message. One can only hope. I feel sorry for the managers. It must be pretty tough sitting between the leeches and those whom they suck the blood out of. How do they do it? ...

If you doubt me, see the "Urban Dictionary" definition. It's about as good as any that I have seen: http://tinyurl.com/28rqen4 After working for far too long for a smaller MTSO, which was aquired by Nuance and which also treated its workers like dirt, and coming to this company, I begin to wonder if this is just the state of affairs in Health Information Services or just employment in the United States generally. Trying to get and keep a decently paying job just seems l ...

Mine will work until I click on Webclock to punch in my hours and then it just sits there with a blank page and does nothing. Just wondering if it is just me or anyone else having this problem? ...

Just wondering if we're all sharing accounts now. ...

This is beyond insane. Why hire all these new people and pay for training and benefits only to have EVERYONE run out of work? It makes no business sense whatsoever. The person making these decisions must have received their MBA from a Cracker Jack's box. It's bad enough that we're being paid peanuts (pun intended), but to run out of work, too? Come on, people. Develop some sense and sensitivity. Thank you. ...

Decided to take the advise I received about not giving up. The results are that I was told that I have to be laid off, or about to be laid off. Want letter from MQ stating lay off or date of lay off. Too tired to worry with this anymore. ...

It is hard to take the leap of faith. It is hard to not be an "MT" anymore after so long. It is hard to think of myself as doing something else... I always said I would go down with the ship and it was hard to admit that my life boat had arrived....maybe an offshore joke would work here. Thanks to all the posters on the board who kept me from going insane everytime I was lied to, everytime I was performance managed, got my pay cuts, got lied to some more, and got promoted to MME. I don ...

I am giving it up, transcription work. I have been a transcriptionist since 1998 and have thus so far on this board or other boards have had a job that supported me in doing my work. I have learned many platforms and programs for these companies and always QA seems to be the downfall on all jobs. Learn it one way, learn it another way and always not good enough. So jobs I am going back into retail. Good luck to all MTer's. ...

What is the correct term- giving way or giving away (referring to knee)? Hope everyone is having a nice weekend ...

Thanks, Nuance for taking all my working and giving it to offshore - for everything!
