Q-west - Ancient typist

I know this co. very well. I worked for them for many years, when they were young and building up their clientele (they used a different name at that tine). They are based in CA. They are very small, but the co-owners are very kind, and accessible if you have questions. If you are thinking about a job offer I wouldn't think twice!!

my experience. - anon

Typed all reports in Word, saving each one individually (lots of reports), then signing on the hospital system to pasted all reports to corresponding patient one by one and saving again (lots of reports). Then emailing MTSO each report done daily for a manual counting of lines. all that took longer than the bulk typing, and all because there was no access to a line count on the hospital system.

Not to mention each step creating a greater and greater margin for error....buy a darned line counter for heavens sake!

my experience only - may not be yours. Nice people, whacked system for that account. Would be curious to know why the name change...problems?

From the Owner - Laura

Hi ladies/gentleman, I am the owner of Q-West, and no longer affiliated with that hospital and that ancient system and way of doing things that anon is referring to. I do agree with you that was a bulky and tedious way of doing business, and we were operating in the dark ages by making it such an intensely manual process, leaving a lot of room for error. However, since I have branched off and started Q-West Transcription, my mission is to automate EVERYTHING, and streamline the entire process of transcription for both the transcriptionist and the client. Our goal is that the transcription workflow is faster, cleaner, and more accurate than ever before. We want to take advantage of all the brilliant technology available so that Q-West will be both an exciting place to work and a great asset to any company looking to outsource their medical transcription.

Is it just me, or has anyone noticed that their line count average is sucking really bad since we got all these new accounts and then the new and improved (yeah right) software update? And now its mandatory overtime (probably because we are struggling with the new accounts). Yeah, I need the overtime just to make what I used to make without overtime. ugggg. ...

Well, I am out of work. A LOT of MT's have been getting on in the evenings and cleaning out my primary and secondary. NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE until recently. Hmmm. Makes me now want to start popping on and work in the mornings. After all, I wanted to work days (not evenings) to begin with, but was forced to work evenings or look for another job. I really need to go back to school and do something else!!! Looks like this company started changing a lot ...

Nothing in our BOB, trying to help others, but work is low too. I just found out something too!!! I had a primary account for years and the account felt like family to me. Knew all the doctors. Yes, I was blessed to have this account. Then about a year ago, I was told this account was being done by their own doctors. (Cannot remember the exact name it is called). A lot of Providence Cinics and hospitals use it. When you go in for a clinic visit, a ...

looking forward to that at all. If they could ensure there would be enough work during your ENTIRE shift I would have NO problem with it. But what are we supposed to do when we get NJA. Right now, my CCM just says to keep checking back throughout the day, which I do, and then I can almost always get my hours in that way. Can anyone already on lockdown, FT, getting NJA shed some light on how they make up the time and if it is even possible? ...

For over 6 weeks now the West Branch of M-Modal has had low work or no work and everyone is scrambling to get in what hours they need, is there anyone out there who has the true skinny on whether these jobs are being sent out to India, or what the HECK is going on? The supervisor keeps telling everyone that it is just low work, I have a hard time buying that after this long. I need to move on...... ...

The patient is in a s/l *total shell* with a headrest secondary to West Nile virus, some neuromotor dysfunction, but no acute changes. This is mentioned in the HEENT exam on a discharge, not the reason the pt was admitted so have nothing else to go by and no other notes mention anything. He is just mumbling his way through this whole thing (new PA) and I cannot quite get what he is meaning, the "t" sound and "shell" are the only clear sounding parts, and googling with West Nile virus and h ...

CCM notes the Western power outage yesterday (approximately 5 hours) is not covered by paid down time. However, East Coast outage later in the day was a system problem and would be covered by down time. HUH ? So for power outages we either make up time or use PTO. Can this possibly be legal ?????? ...

past 6 years. This week am told mandatory to change a week day to weekend hours and still running out of work with email stating "can make up time on a specific weekend day" (saturday). Now am I one of the lucky ones they keep cutting off (NJA) SO AS to force working on weekend time slots (if you want to make up time which is your pay) which the CCM feels is the weak spots on the weekend. YET, they are hiring constantly and have not hired anyone for weekends. Am I the onl ...

just wondering if anybody else in west has been noting marked decrease in work volumes. My major acct used to have, at least on weekends, 200, 300, and even in the 400 numbers of jobs and lately the weekend work has maybe been 50 at a maximum. I guess just another acct gone to India. ...

Ours from the West has (thankfully) gone back to being another MME like the rest of us poor mortals. I found her e-mails to be bossy, snippy, condescending and picky to the point of absurdity. The frosting on the cake was the recent e-mail that said MT's are to be held at fault if the doctor makes a mistake on a lab value, med dosage, etc. Some people get a little taste of power and become unbearable. I, for one, bid her a joyful farewell because ...
