Question about TT imedx bonus lines typed yesterday (sm) - Concerned

Posted: Feb 03, 2015

Where are you putting them so that when payday rolls around, you will have a count? I know bonus was offered last night on a few accounts. I didn't do any of them, but in case it comes up today again, I was wondering where you are submitting them. Thanks

I would assume they still go on Scriptwire.

Scriptwire - is history. nm

Yup - ScriptWire is history

I found out after 5 days of trying over and over to submit my time in ScriptWire that we aren't using it anymore.

Nothing that the trainer from Exponent said in those sessions turned out to be true. She said that the accounts who can't feed our lines/minutes directly into Exponent would still continue to use ScriptWire. Not true. She said those of us who send in separate Word timesheets would no longer be doing that. Not true. She said that we no longer would be requesting time off via our managers. NOT TRUE. She repeatedly said these things throughout the entire training session that I attended, among several other things that also turned out to be false.

Would it have KILLED someone from TTMS/iMedX to be in on those sessions so as to diffuse any conflicting information? Our own people should have had someone in on every training session to prevent this kind of miscommunication. Another ball dropped, but who cares, right?

The TTMS supervisors don't tell us anything anymore and because of their silence, that only makes the paranoia worse. Greed, selfishness, and complete lack of loyalty to the people who do all the work. This isn't a career for me anymore... it's just a job now... a meaningless, thankless, JOB.

And for anyone who is interested, I'm on MTStars right now because my FIVE backup accounts are suddenly and mysteriously OOW, which coincides exactly with when they rolled out the Epic platform for other accounts. Why can't someone, ANYONE just be honest with us? At least give us some sort of heads up so we can plan for the eventual doom - like having another job in our back pocket. Unemployment in my state doesn't even cover a third of what I'm used to making when I have work.

I was hired several months ago and yesterday was the first day we ran out of work on a big account early. I think our work has been sent to TTS. Does anyone know this for sure. Any new TTST employees/ICs know what their "premium oncology account" was that TTS is starting to type this week? ...

Yep, no accuracy percentage, if you worked for them you were good and they knew it, not need to prove yourself. No minimum line counts per hour, work and do your daily minimum whenever at your pace, as long as it got done. No dings for sending to QA or asking for clarification. No outrageous taxes taken out of bonus, earned $400 got $400. Sure do miss those days when we were treated as adults who could be trusted to do a good job. ...

The e-mail I got said it has been reduced to 2 cents above your line rate. Bonus before was set at line rate and 1/2, which I thought they did because it would be the equivalent to "time and a half," which is, I believe, the law when you are working beyond 40 hours in a week. If you are working bonus, which is usually the case, above your 40 hours, is it legal for them not to pay the equivalent of time and a half? ...

Moderator, please delete everything on your site that refers to Imedx, even this post of mine, it is only the right thing to do. I prefer to be angry and have no where to vent. Last week we were told by Op Mgr that "she has a call into the client about why volume is so low." Yesterday, we got a "yippee" from "her" about having a coupla hundred jobs ready. This morning, we got an email saying, "we need to make sure you have backup accounts now." I wont address the timesheet issue, I am still ...

if you make 4 cents per line at 1000 lines a day, they really calculate it at 500 lines per day x 4 cents, making it really 2 cents per line for the full 1000. I heard this, and I am really interested in knowing if it is true. ...

My main account was a good one, and the lines were very good, mostly ER work. I have been on this account for over a year and a half now. We recently received an e-mail stating that Nuance had discovered that the line count was charging incorrectly, as instituted by them, and they had been crediting us with MORE lines than we were actually doing and overcharging the client. Now get this, they informed us that they would not make US pay it back, for their mistake, but that our new lines would re ...

What do you do when you have the required hours but are short lines? I got an email that I need to "make plans to have my shortage made up." The only problem is that I'm up to date with my hours for the pay period so far. The other problem is that I have plans Saturday night and Sunday (both being my scheduled time off) that don't include TransTech. It's getting harder and harder to defend this company when they can't hold up their end of the agreement and continually ...

Just wondering if the TT MTs would like share ... how many lines do you average during the day/week? I'm doing about 9,000 to 10,000 a week and wonder if I should be pushing myself more. How much of your count is VR? I do probably 15% traditional and 85% VR but that, of course, varies week to week. ...

No one on this board seems to give specifics when they get canned from IMEDX. So my question is this: Can each person who got laid off/fired let us know more details. Were you PT or full time, did they call or did they email, did you have options, or just firing. How many lines did you do per day. Some of us may not be in your situation and you may have been just an employee that was not worth IMEDX's time and they got rid of you while they may keep all the others, or full timers. Details p ...

How many lines do you average per day - VR and traditional? I know it's been VERY slow lately, but when things are going well, how many lines do you normally get? I'm trying to figure out where the average numbers are. For me, I do about 350 trad and about 1400 VR in 8 hours. Well, my timesheet says 8 hours, but my clock says that number MAY(!) be a little higher. Again, these are numbers I pull when things are going well and I'm not waiting for work to download. I'v ...
