Now Plllleeeeasssse moderator, don't move this to some other forum. I really do need for a MedQuist QA person to answer this question.... My original blurb was placed on here, and it was moved to the Word Board. I got answers from others who do NOT use ASR platform of MQs. I realize BOS2 says the number, and that is what I have been doing for about a year now. Here is the headache that we MQ employees endure. ASR seems to do whatever it wants and does NOT follow rul ...

Am I doing something wrong? Are you supposed to edit the list before or after CTRL-Shift L.

This was a wonderful company to work for at first and now we have new QA people and I can't stand my job. Everything has been changed after 12 years of doing it one way, and if I do it the way the doctors have dictated/still dictate for years I get an email about how I need to follow the new rules. This is one QA person that has decided to change everything. We enter a lot of information that we're not paid for, and are now no longer paid for headers, and forget about BOS a ...

Here I am, getting shuffled around in the 'cesspool', a dozen unfamilar accounts. You have your decent accounts with just the basics. Then, you have the CPs that are a long as novels and, if you miss something, you will hear about it, the fact it is in the CP and you shouldn't make such a mistake. I already spend so much time reading CPs, that I then get warnings that my production has fallen. So much for a consistent layout of CPs. I have to hunt for desired PE format, etc... ...

We have an account that is 100% QA. So, so, so sick of the nitpicking "a" "the" crap. If you put "the patient" they change it to "patient." If you put "patient" they change it to "the patient." Sick of slowing down to catch every little "a" and losing money by the second. Screw it, I'm just gonna do my best and the MMEs can just have a field day with their petty changes. ...

i know this has been mentioned in here, but what is up with whole sections of a note done by ASR being missing? its bad enough that we get paid nothing to do this ASR crap, but when we have to actually transcribe whole sections we should be getting paid at the straight typing rate. i'm so close to just wiping out these ASR dictations and just typing them but i don't know how to do that...to change it from ASR to regular. i'm sure i'd get yelled at anyway. &n ...

Okay any CTLs observing this board, please, please, please explain to me why an MT/ME cannot ask for sick time? I have a doctor's appointment and the doctor/specialist WILL NOT make it for a day I am off. So, I requested time off w/o pay for the day. I don't have a problem making up the time, but I am already working constantly as it is to make up from a very serious illness I have and am trying to get well from. The email we got was very vague ...

I am currently awaiting a call from my boss about going salary for my position as an MT, and I have no patience , so just for fun I googled "how much salary does a medical transciptionist get paid" and I clicked on this link to one of those question/answer sites where someone asked about the average transcriptionist's salary, and what I read made me sick. This person wrote a huge answer about what is to be an MT and how they get paid and such. This person is claiming essentially they ...

I know all the techies out there will say I must "get with the times", but I absolutely hate computers! It isn't enough that you have to learn a new platform for each and every company you work for, but they think you should know all the regular "computer stuff" as well. I don't use my computer for anything except work, email, and to look things up because I don't want to-- but everybody expects you to be a computer expert today, like it or not. If they didn' ...

It's time to take action against all of the companies who refuse to pay us what we are worth. On May 1st and thereafter, if you have any sick time, paid time off, whatever, -- Take the day off and every day thereafter -- Until these companies pay us what we are worth !!!! Please reply if you agree with this, and if you are able to do this.... United we stand....remember Bank of America??? Let's unite!! ...
