Is there anybody working for Focus who is not running out of work? SM - GaMT


Posted: Nov 04, 2010

I have been here almost 2 months, and it was fine at first.  Now, though, I can't get enough work for a day's worth.  I know I should ask for a backup but just wondering how other folks are faring.

How weird. I was about to post the same question.. - anonymouse

I have been at Focus for 6-1/2 months. I too had plenty of work at first. I can't remember the last time I got 8 hours though. Most days, I can get 6 hours but there are some days I can't even get that. I know someone else who works there and she said it is the same with her. I just have to get on and off most of the day and night to get work. I love the company, love the people I work with and for, but yes, I have noticed that it is slow.

Running Out Of Work
Feb 22, 2015

Hi, this is my first time on this forum, so hope this post goes through.  The hospital that I work for is outsourcing the transcription department to Nuance Transcription Services.  We have been offered a job to move right over, etc. and everything sounds just wonderful.  LOL.  However, I see on the board many, many unhappy employees.  Is there anyone that is happy with Nuance? and about running out of work - is that mostly radiology or is it also medical records?  ...

I will never understand why companies over hire, we were ontop of TAT.  In 2 weeks we have gone from 100s of files to 20 and fighting each other for them.   1200 lines to 400 a day ?  Amazing the amount of job hopping necessary to support our families as most of type long hours, low pay to support our families.  I am sickened by the thought of losing another job to no lines and the financial downfall it will have on my family.....

Running Windows Programs On A MAC
Sep 25, 2010

I have an opportunity to get a brand new MAC as a gift.  My boyfriend has an extra one.  I work on the BeyondText platform and remember seeing someone on here had a MAC but had a way to split it so her Windows programs ran on the MAC somehow.  Tech support at Transcend says it won't work on a MAC. Or maybe I was wondering if an external driver could be used that was Windows and would run on the MAC.  Probably a pipe dream, but a MAC!  Oh I would love it!  Anyb ...
