I can't upvote this enough. The handwriting is on the wall for you and your department. Do NOT believe what management is telling you. They need warm bodies during the transition and yes, you are one of them. Yes, you will more than likely make less at any other clerical job at the hospital, but at least you not only will HAVE a job, you can keep your vacation and your benefits.

Been there, done that and bought the T-shirt. I did transition from my Transcription Dept to another job. Do I like my current job? Not particularly, but I could see the future of MT was fading fast and at my age of +60, my opportunities were going to be limited. I have my benefits yet and 5+ weeks of paid vacation a year.

Do I miss MT? Every.freakin.day.
