A community of 30,000 US Transcriptionist serving Medical Transcription Industry
Nuance recruited me with a promise of six paid holidays, the usual major U.S. holidays. It includes these holidays in its (new) Employee Handbook. However, I have just learned that Nuance does NOT provide paid holiday pay per se. It provides a measley "incentive" of 25% above usual line pay only if one works the holiday. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY'S RECRUITERS. This company's benefits are the worst I have seen in the industry. Since hospitals have begun outsourcing work to MTSO's, these companies (including Nuance) have turned our profession into a huge sweatshop. I, for one, am getting out. We should begin rating these companies and organizing a massive work-stoppage day until they start paying us what we are worth. NURSING ASSISTANTS make more than medical transcriptionists!
