Spheris is a company who, while training new employees, makes sure to tell them that employees are not allowed to speak out negatively against the company. I just had nightmares about the crap that I've been through with them. They have absolutely created a hostile working environment. Now, why on Earth would I go naming who told me and give details? I signed a contract yesterday with a local hospital that I have been bugging for years to get on with! So, I have something truly terrific to look forward to, but I have to grit my teeth until I have my new software loaded, trained, and ready to sit down and do a full day's work with my new job. I don't give a flying fart in space if nobody believes me because I won't "back it up."
Trouble? CEO just resigned, CMO resigned, For Sale - Spheris spy

So here we go again, in the middle of working, and I get logged out just like probably a lot of the rest of you. However, we STILL get our e-mails saying we should use our mouse less, not have so much idle time, blah blah blah. We are not allowed to work hours that are not on our shift, and yet . . . we don't have work when it IS our shift!!!!! How about all the time we sit here with no work, how about when we lose jobs because they don't co ...
Nothing like having a string of the worst VR out there, having to retype the entire dictation, but not get paid to type it up b/c "a few sentences did match"...a few sentences out of a 10 minute dictation each is not even a drop in the bucket. I love working for NOTHING. I am so sick of this company. ...
There must be a bunch of wolves in coorporate! This place is getting worse every week! I think the TSMs too are cowardly, why don't they have a conference call and tell us what is happening. The management hides behind emails! They barely pay, and now they take away even more. They probably want all Americans to quit. Way to go coorporate America, just keep sticking it to your own people! ...
* - It sucks at numbers (not that numbers are important on a legal medical document or mean life and death in dosing etc.)
* - It puts diagnoses on paper that weren't even said!
* - It takes a phone number (emergency contact for patient) and inserts 02/08/2014 07/04/2013 04/03/2014 05/05/2013 04/02/2014 (what the ????)
* - You can't make any money
* - It can't recognize the difference between ASSESSMENT: AND IMPRESSION: It doesn't matter, whichever they said, it will say ...
Here is an article that talks about 401K. Mmodal's 401K plan stinks.
"The most common 401(k) employer match is now dollar-for-dollar for the first 6% of income that an employee defers."
Mmodal only matches 25% up to 4% which equals 1% in a lump sum which is even stingier than matching it each pay period to allow the participants to take advantage of compounding. The worst thing - We don't even know if Mmodal is going to match this year. In years past they sent out a letter res ...
North region went from 4 accounts, to being tried on this POD Pilot Program and put on at least 10 more accounts, with a few having several divisions. After 1st week, workload fell way behind, over 1400 reports by this past Friday. Around 4 p.m. Friday, we were offered OT plus an extra $10/h for Fri, Sat & Sun, but have to work at least 3 hours OT each day. Interestingly, not told up front, but via email AFTER THE FACT, that the OT pay might be paid on the 2/7/2014 pay, 2 m ...
I have been using this system for a couple of months now and was hoping it was going to get better, but it really has not. Is there anyone who is have great success on this system? Do you work on another VR system that you really like and can make $20/hr or more on? I am just wondering if it is M-Modal or the way ours is set up, or what. By the time I pay for my insurance, computer costs, software, taxes, etc. , there is not a lot of m ...
Hey Spheris MTs out there. I worked for Spheris for a while not too long ago but quit for another company. Nothing wrong with Spheris at all, just love the new company flexibility much, much more. I loved the expander program Spheris used (Shorthand 10.0) so much that I ended up buying the program to use on my new job. Problem is there are so many tips and tricks that Spheris provided for using Shorthand 10.0 that I never got to put into action and quit before I thou ...

Should we have a W2 from MQ as well as from Spheris? Was just putting my info together to have taxes done & don't understand the 2 from Spheris but noticed I don't have one that says MQ.
Thanks in advance. ...
Had nightmares about my company last night. I was told to go in the office of my boss and do some punishment work. I sat there in front of this blank computer, would not turn on, and something said to sit in her chair, since she was not there, and start opening all the books and do the worksheets about what a bad person/MT I was. Then, she popped up in the back of the office in black. Scary, evil woman! She said terrible things, and just as I kept telling myself thi ...
Is there anyone out there who has worked for Spheris and other large companies? If so, how does Spheris compare? Looking for other opportunities, but don't want to end up in a worse situation :) In particular, has anyone worked for both Spheris and Webmedx?
thanks ...

By closing the curtains on its finances, Spheris has opened the door to speculation regarding its future. Whispers range from a sale to a bankruptcy, with the former gaining steam in the past week after a blogger in India reported competitor Cbay Systems Ltd. had struck a deal to buy Spheris’ operations in that country.
Both Spheris and Cbay declined to address the potential sale. Spheris has ...
I had an interview with Spheris yesterday. It sounds too good to be true - more per line than I'm making now, plus production bonus and weekend shift differential? And better insurance too. Okay. I worked for MQ. My check got smaller and smaller as they revamped the bonuses and brought in VR (which absolutely refused to be taught anything). So tell me the truth - would I be jumping back into the same fire with Spheris? ...
I'm not sure if this is a good move for me, especially after reading an article on them that was linked from this board. Recruiter says they have loads of work, but they seem really regimented. Anyone work for them and want to share? Thanks. ...
Can any one shed light on whether Spheris MT and Editors are let go because of their fire sale to MedQuist? Are they losing any accounts? Which ones?
Help please. ...
