WebmedX new ISR engine - Not impressed


Posted: Feb 04, 2010

Opinions? Am i the only one unimpressed? I can't believe THIS is what they think is so fabulous that it warrants a pay cut. 

Enterprise always full of glitches they can't fix - they have lousy programmers

Typical. I learned long ago that any time they "improve" their software they never test it in advance and we can expect a big mess right afterward, with a bunch of downtime and emergency patches. They never learn from the past and they're very bad at foreseeing software interaction problems in advance.

Of course they claim its fabulous! They constantly tell MTs how fabulous we are then cut our pay. Any time the suits open their mouths, it means a pay cut and another overhiring binge. Business as usual - brag, cut, hire!

If it didn't hurt my pay so much I would laugh. nm - horrible ISR

What about your lines - ISR

[ In Reply To ..]
Did they go down, go up, or stay about the same when you got the new ISR?

Stayed the same due to much editing=lower pay. - horrible ISR

I'm looking for another job

I do very good on the MedQuist ASR platform - Sandy

[ In Reply To ..]
I am an ME at MedQuist and I love the ASR platform. I do more than twice as many lines as I did as an MT and it is much less stressful on my wrists. I would recommend it to everyone ... and they have lot's of editing work for me all the time!!!

Is There A Search Engine That Searches Just Medical Sites?
Feb 23, 2011

I am not sure what's going on of late, but I don't seem to get relevant search results when I use G. I search for a medical word, but get results from sites that have nothing to do with medicine. I end up questioning the credibility of these search results and have to research more. Needless to say, I've been losing money spending so much more time researching words. Sometimes, I just wonder if I could have access to a medical search engine to cut out the non-medical stuff. Anyone ...

Webmedx Needs To Pay
Apr 24, 2010

The unremarkable Wedmedx needs to pay for the downtime MTs are incurring because they want to switch everything over to their horrendous ISR.  The unremarkable Webmedx requires 1 to 4 hours to get new computers up and running and yet we production people are supposed to make up that time or use our PTO time or just not get paid.  The unremarkable Webmedx just hired new people and gave them bonuses to sign on but can't pay their longtime loyal employees for time lost due to no ...

I am so sorry we are all going through this but everything happens for a reason, so they say.  Let's just hope we all have brighter days ahead of us and better things. I was blessed to wo ...


Webmedx Pay Better Than Most
Oct 16, 2010

I know a lot of MTs and I keep getting calls to get on MTStars and read the latest bashing of Webmedx.  So when I finished work today I decided to do just that.  To hear all of your complaints I wonder if this is the same company I've been working for all these years. I've been editing since ISR started with them and it took me about a year to make up and at times exceed where I was.  Now I prefer ISR.  The long and the short of it is that as long as Webmedx keeps ...

If you are an M-TEC graduate currently employed by WebMedX, what was your M-TEC graduating GPA? What is a good enough GPA to get hired by WebMedX? I will be graduating in April 2012 and would like to start making some employment plans. ANY INF ...

Comparison Of ASR With Webmedx And MQ.
Nov 15, 2009

Anyone else working for/or have worked for both who has noticed a difference in the quality of the ASR on one as compared to the other.  I may be crazy, but I think I make far fewer corrections to the ASR on MQ work.  Maybe just lucky, but I tend to be a mouse user  (I know - shame on me, but I am getting better) and I find my right hand lets me know when I have been using the mouse more. ...
