There's a thread on the Coding board where someone got her first coding job and got a higher salary because of her MT experience. Finally someone recognizes that we have value. It's a shame that it has to be a coding employer instead of an MT employer, but that's the way it is. MTSOs don't appreciate their employers; coding employers do. They demonstrate that by PAYING for services done, not continuous abusive e-mail, IM, and paycuts. ...

I am moving this up to the top because I think it is an important issue. I am referring to my post below about looking at old reports and seeing the work of another MT at my company. It was a VR report that was obviously not edited or just skimmed over. I will look at other reports from this MT, and if I see more than 2 or 3 more with the same problems, I will report it. As was said below, it is above all an issue of patient safety. I am concerned about my ...

When a company decides to make an account VR, are all the reports a mess to begin with for weeks or months until the voice engine (sorry if that's the wrong term) learns from the "straight" transcription that is done? Why do different platforms matter (i.e., E-scription versus M-Modal, etc). Is it possible for a company to get an account and make it VR from day 1, or do they have MTs do regular transcription on it for awhile? I guess I'm just trying to figure outwhat I sho ...

I cannot find the long thread that started with Tracy's posting. ...

what happened to the thread where Poorhouse gets to go back to school through the TAA petition? That was valuable information. Can't imagine why it got deleted. ...

I am the OP of the long thread below. In it someone says that MM has high standards and if you can't meet them, it's your problem. Well, this company does not have high standards. What it has done is create artificially high and unrealistic standards for the MT only so that they can find as many ways possible to reduce their salaries or terminate them if they so desire. If they had high standards they would periodically review the dictionary and take out all the ...

I want to repeat this for those who may have missed it and I am not looking for pity. Was moved to a new account after 4 years on 2 very difficult accounts with only 1 or 2 failed audits (and was always given a second chance). After 24 hours on the new account and telling them there was one particulary dictator I could not hear because he kept moving away from the phone, they audited me, included reports from that dictator, and immediately put me on 100% QA at which point I finally ...

If you're an IC there, what is the schedule like? Can you choose it? Sam, no need to reply. Thanks. ...

There were some postings on V.A. Hospitals here just yesterday. Why are they gone? There were comments about companies that had contracts with the V.A. Why are they missing? Does anyone know what is going on? Are our comments being censored? Need to know. ...

asked, "I am trying to get a grasp on the IC vs employee thing but I don't understand why a company would want to hire an IC then?" No one has answered this as of yet. Why would a company hire an IC then? Because they don't have to take out taxes, (including their share of Social Security), and they do not have to provide benefits. All they have to do is cut the IC a check, and then the IC is responsible for all the taxes, including all of the Social Sec ...

Maybe Monday the TTS MTs and managers will come to play? Seriously, how many MTs are employed by TTS? I never heard of it till lately. ...

regarding line counts, pay, etc. I have been a medical transcriptionist for over 23 years, have experience in multiple specialties although orthopedics, neurology and cardiology are my favorite, and I barely bring home $600.00 every 2 weeks. That is with me working 10-12 hours a day, 5 and 6 days a week. I have been searching high and low for a new company, hating to jump ship, but desperately needing to earn more. My statement to those earning more than 600-800 a WEEK .. ...

Did it go viral? It was about not being paid for spaces. ...

Now if we could just get rid of the one below! ...

An MT from India started a thread, and there were a few responses, now the entire thing is gone. What happened? ...

I never clock out for breaks. Am I supposed to? I am scheduled for 4 hours at a time with a 1-hour break in the middle. If I clock out for a break, don't I have to make up the time at the end of my shift? I don't wanna do that. I take a break whenever I feel like it. I can't type 4 hours straight. How does it work for everybody else? ...

It was on here yesterday. She got a typical suit response. Did the Q have it deleted? Wouldn't be surprised. I've noticed a lot of negative posts about different companies vanish from this site. ...

I have been a participant of this board for many years. When an enire thread disappears, I realize other boards are more MT friendly. I will not be back. ...

On the main board there is a message titled "Gotta Vent" and the following replies regarding coding have made me sick to my stomach, especially because a couple people stated seeing their coding departments wiped out by the EMR systems. Could someone shed some light on this? I am in a coding class now and I am not feeling so hot....but be honest. Thank you! ...

Just wanted to find out how many of us out there are loving our jobs? Personally, I'm currently in a position to have to choose between the day job that I love as a receptionist in a Fortune 500 company where I live in Colorado, and my night job where I spend about 5 hours an evening transcribing for a great ortho group out in New Jersey through a fantastic transcription company in the same state called DocuMed, and I can't decide which to keep! I've been with both for abou ...

I have been trying to get another job being an MT that is either FT or is PT to supplement my already PT job. I have sent out way more resumes that I can count and only got one job offer. This job offer was for 5 to 6 cpl. I could have worked full time on this job, but I feel that an MT is worth more than what they were offering. My questions are am I missing something? Am I doing something wrong? What else can I do? It's just frustrating to finally ...

There's an interesting thread on the New MT board about accredited schools, school loans, and oppressive debt students are facing. I did a search today and there are dozens of articles talking about how students are thousands of dollars in debt for student loans when the education they got was so poor that they can't find a job at all. Others can find a job, but it will take 20-30 years for them to pay back the student loans. They went to those schools because they got pressured ...

I am missing a little over $100 from my paycheck from 2 weeks ago. Nobody is answering my calls or replying to my emails. I did get one email saying they were busy doing this weeks payroll, and they would look into after they were finished, but still nothing. I am getting really upset about this. It wasn't my whole check, but enough that the impact was felt (and is still being felt). This also happened about a month ago, and it took it them several d ...

I recently went back there part-time to supplement my day job after quitting because I got real tired of the highly fluctuating work flows. My husband really pushed me to do this because we needed the extra money. Once again, there is never any work for me to do, and yet they are hiring again? Saying they need 2nd and 3rd shift? That's what I do. I'm not even going to bother trying to talk to them about it, because I already tried that and got nothing back ...

This is stated in the PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: (s/l sersa) spinal stenosis surgery 3 years ago. also dictated: Active range of motion of the left knee is approximately zero to100 degrees. Should translation be 0:100 or 0 to 100 or 0-100? Help please. ...

Okay, I have had the suspicion that MQ programmed something when you bring up old reports when typing a discharge summary that the H&P doesn't show up. Today, the dictator doing the DS plainly stated that she was reading right off the H&P. I went to check in the old reports to maybe get some quick lines, but it wasn't there...as usual. I typed what she said and realized that I had already typed this before and that I was the one that typed the original H&P ...

When you suspect that a word may have been omitted from dictation, do you make a note for this to be reviewed or do you think that is overstepping your bounds and basically saying the doctor made a mistake? For instance, this ESL doc said "Bacterial endocarditis is not particularly recommended, but the patient has had Augmentin or amoxicillin and may be given a single dose.." I suspect he forgot to say bacterial endocarditis "prophylaxis" is not particularly recommended...etc. ...

The introitus and vagina were prepped and an indwelling Foley catheter inserted to the urinary bladder to _____ (enclose with some???) drainage bag. The words in the brackets is what I'm hearing but it doesn't make sense to me - please help. Thank you Lisa ...

I am a remote transcriptionist for a large hospital. We recently went live with VR Nuance/escript. Ever since go live I have had the continuing problem of typing a voice file and will lose a keystroke, have to backspace, sometimes hit the same key 3-5 times before it will show up on the screen, sometimes taking me an hour to 2 finger type a report. This has been happening since the first day of go live. IT, Nuance nor escript have any idea what is going on. Has this ever happened to an ...

Has anybody noticed that the VR on Nuance is missing more and more words lately? Not little ones, but 3 or 4 in a row on the Extex/transnet program? I'm finding that it's really starting to impact my production negatively. Now wondering if it's deliberate? or am I just being paranoid these days? ...
