TransTech/Nuance - ttmt

Am I the only one who thought the email about audits was strange? Nuance is doing audits also?
Nuance is a partner on some accounts? What does that mean?
Audits - Another MT
[ In Reply To ..]
Some companies prefer to use their own particular auditing companies with certain accounts, and this is happening at TT, which also means they have stricter regulations and often go overboard in how they audit MTs, such as dotting every i and crossing every t, and it makes it harder to maintain a higher percentage rate. In other words, they weed out the MTs who are not maintaining the percentage rate set forth when you are hired. This is why there is a high turnover rate in MT personnel.

TransTech focuses on major errors and added/omitted dictation and does not count off for little stuff. I was audited and some oversights really lowered my score. That's my fault, not theirs. I had punctuation typos that were not even counted off for.

They do count off for little stuff, and I can verify that. I was told that occasionally they give an MT a break, but all of it counts, and they weigh both together. I don't mean to sound harsh or anything, but this is from information I had been witness to.
my punctuation typos weren't counted against me either - me too/nm
Hello, fellow MTs! I have been working for Nuance as an MT for 4 years, and becoming progressively dissatisfied with them. I noticed that TransTech is hiring. Can anyone tell me how they compare? I already emailed their recruiting department, but would like to get some feedback here as well.
Thanks!!

According to a poster below which has apparently already attended one of the payroll meetings (as the poster posted) for nuance they have decided to keep the incentive part of all of our pay going with an exception that now you have to have over the industry standard of 98% to get a production based incentive.
In addition (if this poster is accurate) they have again cut the overall pay from 8 and 4 to 3 3/4 AND 7 1/2. This is nothing but a bunch of crapploa...an MT who is now getting ...
Anyone working at Transtech care to share whether there radiology accounts pay better than there acute care? I currently work for them on acute care. Thanks! ...
Hi there fellow TT MTs:) Do any of you ever have trouble with QA at TT. Lately, I have been afraid to send anything in for correction, particularly 1 person, who dissects my reports down to crossing my Ts and dotting my Is. I know she is probably just doing her job well, and I know being in QA is a hard job, but this is getting depressing. I am not a newbie by any means, and I know my job well. Not criticizing here, just a little perplexed I guess. Thanks everyone! ...
Just wondering if you can do exclusively VR or exclusively traditional? I thought it was mandatory that both be done, but I want to be sure.
Do you like the ExText platform? ...
I started a new thread because I noticed your question about TransTech waaaay down at the bottom of the page and with no responses yet, so here goes...
In my personal experience, nothing has changed from the older posts. Even today, I have 4 accounts and I'm currently waiting for work to come into my queue. If you can get in with TransTech as a favorite, you can make BIG money doing 98% OP notes (about 30,000 lines per pay period). But, if you're just a regular, ...
Usually there are lots of posts here about TT. Just wondering what is going on now. I was hired and supposed to start work there, but could not work with satellite. For some reason, the EditScript would not come up. So I got rid of satellite and had Verizon Wireless installed. So far this is working pretty good. Much better than satellite -- knock on wood. Hopefully I can start working again. ...
I've been with TT for about 6 years but was recently offered an in house job at 4x the pay and really great benefits. I have to say I really enjoyed working for TT other than the times of low volume and I would recommend them. Things have changed for me and I can't turn down this opportunity but I do wish them well. ...
Does anyone know if they hire part time? I know I have seen comments about them running out of work, but that seems to be a common thing among most of the companies anymore. ...
I was recently hired by Transtech, just wondering if anyone has any experience with them? I was very excited to get a job offer, but was a little nervous when the recruiter started explaining what to do when work was slow or there was no work. AT 4.5 cpl for VR, the last thing I need is long periods of no work. Anyone with experience with them? ...
I am no longer working for TransTech but just wondering if there have been any changes since merger yet? Any anticipated? I maybe should not have quit so soon....any suggestions? ...
some part-timers anyway, why not offer weekends to part-timers and offer some Mon-Fri shifts for the experienced full-time MTs you're trying to get..... That's about the only way you're going to get many experienced quality MTs. And there are always plenty of MTs looking for part-time weekend work as a 2nd job. ...
Just out of curiosity, are any of you who have been switched to much more VR than traditional (at the halved pay rate) actually making as much or more than you did before? ...
