Webmedx SWAT team - anonymouse
Posted: Jun 03, 2011
Has anyone accepted a position as a SWAT team member at Webmedx? The pay is hourly and you go from account to account where help is needed. I know some Webmedx employees that are regular MTs were complaining about lack of work. I was wondering if this was the same with SWAT too or is there adequate work?
SWAT -- You have to be the "best of the best" and "cream of the crop" before you - for SWAT

that should be before you are considered for SWAT - no message

Sounds like every MT at MQ - Swat the Q
[ In Reply To ..]Granted I am the highest-level tier at MQ, able to do any dictator, any report, but this is my trade-off for NJA: Getting different accounts throughout the day. Once I counted 16 different hospitals. The reason I'm still there is that it's better than suffering through the feeling of NJA. Am I compensated for the ability to do any account? My line count drops for having to study the new client's profile for awhile lest I make a mistake. If I make a mistake as I once did not for not knowing the specifics of a certain doctor that wasn't in the profile instructions, I'm put on a 100% audit. Less money. More stress. Threatened to lose my job for trying my best. "Please, sir, may I have another?"
you took the words right out of my mouth! - notherSWATtheQmt
[ In Reply To ..]The only good thing about having to work like this is the ability brag about that at the next job. So many MTs have no idea the difficulty of our jobs at the Q because they are still back in the days of 1 primary and possibly a secondary.
I also have well over 16 accounts per day!
Where is my swatter?
Medquist ought to be swatted... - Imker
[ In Reply To ..]with a giant flyswatter... made in America.
Imker - Nick
[ In Reply To ..]I, for one, would be happy to wield the swatter against MQ!
The difference is the method of payment. (sm) - anon
[ In Reply To ..]It wouldn't be so bad to be on 20 different accounts if you were receiving a decent hourly wage.

Don't you just love how they try to motivate us to do a good job by emphasizing teamwork and how "important" each of us are as part of a team? Yet the pay is so low you can barely feed yourself or pay the rent? As a result, the team of employees are leaving in droves, at least as soon as they are able to. Certainly not motivated much by mere words not backed up by pay that shows real appreciation. ...

Team Leaders

Sooo, was just wondering what exactly does a team lead do and how much do they make? I am fairly new to Transcend/Nuance, and my regional manager seems to always be the one directing things, emailing, calling you back if you have ??. I really don't have any idea what my team leader is doing other than sending account stats and I think she checks the time sheets for errors. Add to that the fact that I get emails from 3 different team leaders within my region with essentially the exact sam ...

NOBODY IS AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTION YOU MAY HAVE. All the sudden no matter who is "on" always has a busy notice up on their status. How frustrating is this when you work on an account where seems like every other crappy speaker wants things done their way, which contradicts everything else and ultimately makes no sense. But do you think that anybody would be available to answer a question H NO!!! All their "changes" to make things better are only making things wors ...

I am *terribly* sad about this because they were both absolutely amazing to work for, but I'm glad that I'll be staying in the Western region. My question is about my new TSM here in the West. Her initials are KP ... anyone working with her?&nbs ...

We have a right to know who is auditing our work and essentially who holds our jobs in their hands. We also have a right to be able to review our reports that have been audited.

I want to be able to listen to the reports that were audited and that I supposedly made mistakes on to see if I agree with the audit t ...

Region Team Lead

It didn't really specify who will be doing PTO requests, etc. (unless I overlooked it) I'm glad I already requested Christmas off and it was granted! Thanks CTL! I'll miss you! ...
