Accentus - ambulatory side questions - Mary Beth


Posted: Apr 27, 2012

I see on this site and another that when listing jobs for Accentus, they list benefits for full time on the acute care side but nothing on the ambulatory side. It is my understanding that on what is formerly known as Zylomed, you are IC for a couple of months. After that, are there benefits and if so, are they the same for that given to the acute care section?

Thank you.

You would probably be better off to pick up the - phone and call and ask them.

GOOD PLACE TO WORK? - Marilyn

Can someone who currently works at Accentus please tell me how they like it, is there plenty of work, good company to work for, etc? I applied for their current job posting today and would like to know if it is a good place to work with good pay for straight typing. I loved my current job for the first 2 months, but then they obviously overhired for my account and now I sit and wait for work!
All I know is what I have read here and it has all - been positive. See msg

I would suggest looking through some of the previous posts on here. I have not heard or read anything bad about them. Most of the posts I've read were all pretty positive and people seemed happy.
Not all. Just most. I myself had a not-so-good - sm

experience with them and tried to tell people that. I got ignored. Oh well. I tried to tell you all. If you refuse to listen to an answer about a question YOU asked, then you do not deserve to be warned.
Bitter much? - Details, please

Wow, let me wipe the venom off of my screen...

It's really not fair to post like that to someone asking a question. Perhaps she never saw your post (I'm assuming from this post that you have posted in the past about the company?). Maybe you could link the poster to your original post about the company so she can read it?

If you don't want to give any reasons about why you had a not-so-good experience with Accentus, it's going to be very difficult for the OP to give your post any credibility. If you feel there's something she/he should know, instead of taking the time to post something so snarky and esoteric, perhaps you could try some constructive criticism of the company.
Wow that is just ridiculous to say I am bitter simply - sm

Accentus Ambulatory is great. Believe me, I have gone through the mill with a company that gave me bad checks, and later on with an alcoholic QA person and a company that SO overhired that 4 people competed for an hour's work per day. Now, I wish that I could do all the work that they have for me. It took a while to get settled in, but I love it now and would be absolutely heartbroken if something happens to this company and the job that I now have.

Anyone Here From Ambulatory Side?
Jun 25, 2014

I was just wondering if anyone posts here that work for the Nuance Ambulatory Care side of things.  All I see here are what appears to be posts from the acute care side and they are not very favorable.  I will probably get hung on this board for saying this, but so far things are pretty good on this side of the fence.  Same managers, same good accounts, plenty of work.  Flexible schedule.  Not crazy about all the logging in to everything (WorldClient, WebClock, Spark), b ...

Would like to hear from anyone who took the transcription test for the above company in regard to how you actually can play the sound files.  My foot pedal would not work with their voice files.  I would click on the start button and the dictation would start and just keep going.  I could not pause, stop it, or anything else insofar as controlling it so I could actually type anything.  I e-mailed them with questions but never heard anything back until hours later in the day and they said I ...

Ambulatory QA%
Dec 08, 2014

On the Ambulatory side, how do we find out what our QA% is?  Is it supposed to be in FIESA?  The only report I see in FIESA is from 11/8 to 11/14 payweek and it says Accuracy 100%.  There are no reports for any other pay week. Also, how do we find out what percentage we sent to QA?  I know under the new plan if we send more thn 10% to QA we get a reduced line rate, but I have no idea how much I send to QA.  Help please? ...


Another Ambulatory Nuance MT
Jul 19, 2014

I have been reading the board down a ways, about the arguments and negative comments between acute care and ambulatory care sides of Nuance.  I, too, work on the ambulatory care side and we were acquired by Nuance almost 2 years ago.  Yes, we used to be Accentus and no, except for becoming employees and the things that go with that status, nothing else has changed.  We work M-F, weekends if we want to.  We do not work holidays and the TAT reflects that on our accounts when a ...

Nuance Ambulatory MTs & FIESA
Oct 11, 2014

I work with the ambulatory team (ortho clinic notes). I have 2 exclusive dictators and 2 that are shared with a couple other MTs. I was originally with On~Time Transcription. We were acquired by Accentus, and Accentus was acquired by Nuance a short time later. The Nuance acquisition took place in November 2012 I believe, and we were switched from IC to employees earlier this year in April. I’m not completely clear on what FIESA is and how it works, but from what I have read it isn&rs ...

I understand nothing of this.  I don't understand FIESA because I was not under it.  However, what I do understand is a cut in pay.  I'm doing well right now if make $200.00/week, mostly OOW, working a total of probably 3 days a week, and $200/week is actually on the higher side of the estimate.  So, here is my prayer for me and all you warriors.  Come Lord Jesus, come.  Deliver us out of Egypt, from this Pharaoh known as Nuance.  Such deception is a ...

Now I understand how there were glowing reports of being happy and making good money.  Welcome to the way acute care works ambulatory folks.  We have a pool of accounts and reports come in with the one closest to turnaroundtime first. No picking or choosing what you transcribe or edit.  Like I have 7 accounts and get all work types and dictators. At least that is how it works for my group that was swallowed up by the N.  We have a schedule and we have to stick to it unless we ...


Just So You Know, Ambulatory And Exclusives ... Not ALL Peaches And Cream..
Oct 29, 2014

Ambulatory is definitely different than acute transcription and probably better in a LOT of ways, but if it makes you acute care feel any better, the 24-hour TAT that is talked about was not a true 24-hour TAT, at least not with my company. If my doctor dictated at 11 pm, my reports were due by 3 pm the next day, so that is more like a 16 hour TAT. If my doctors decided to turn in their reports on the weekend, then I transcribed on the weekend. I worked when my doctors sent reports which ...

Line Count-Ambulatory-InScribe

Does anyone actually make their line count on the above?  The software is horrible.  Each patient is like 10 to 15 lines on average.  You would have to do 130 patients a day transcribing, is that possible?  And the speech rec, OMG that is horrible to try to make lines with.  And, they are taking 50 lines per 1000 away because it is an easy platform.  Yes, I checked with the Department of Labor and they can get away with it.  Crap, I have to wait 5 seconds when ...
