Why is it that this board gets really busy and then everybody is quiet - Is Anyone There?


Posted: Feb 15, 2012

Is everyone just too busy to post?

Been working OT and selling stuff for tuition - sm - MT2coder2

Freshly motivated by noticing that inpatient coders here (not California) top the salary range at $30 an hour, and then there's OT to be had (real OT -- the kind where you are paid the legal 1.5x -- not "MT OT"). Another hospital here has 5 job openings. Several per diem gigs around town.

Opportunities abound! It's like a different world from sad, exploitative Planet MT.

RN + coder combo doing clinical documentation improvement = $73K - $137K.

Can you share where you live? - nm

Yep, those are some good jobs. Not atypical, either.

research and stay in tune with the news that ICD-10 may be delayed, or now it actually looks like it will be. This is crazy.

Still Busy
Apr 24, 2013

The company I work for (3T) says they hired new people.  I hope so and I hope their production kicks in soon because I am hoping for the work load to lighten up a bit!  It has been very busy for a long time. ...


BUSY!
Jul 23, 2013

Has anybody noticed how ridiculously busy it's been and it almost seems like you are working alone?  I wonder how many have quit since the last quarter when i'm sure a bunch lost their bonuses?   I lost bonus, and I ALWAYS made bonus before the "realignment." Working for these thieves is making me a very, very bitter person, and I hate feeling this way.  I feel trapped.  I love the profession but I hate Nuance. What kind of greedy SOB owns this company?  They t ...

Transcend, Are They Busy?
Mar 24, 2010

Periodically I see ads from Transcend on the Job Seeker's Board for full-time transcriptionists, I think they even encourage people to apply for full time as opposed to part time.  Anyway, when I read on the company board it sounds like people are always running out of work?  What percentage of work does Transcend offshore, over 50%?  Don't want to bother applying if there isn't a consistent workload and I don't have time to babysit and monitor work queues.&nbs ...


Busy Computer

What Happened To Poster Busy MT'ing?
Jan 09, 2013

I remember she worked at Medquist and was on here a lot offering advice through all the changes. She shared how she worked through the first pay cuts in 2005 or around that time by working just three and a half days a week (lots of hours) and earning the highest production bonus possible. I believe she was also in school getting her MD? She was very informative, and wondered if anyone has heard from her, if she's here, still working at M-Modal or if she got her degree? ...


No Work All Week, Now We're Busy And I'm Exhausted.
Sep 05, 2014

I'm exhausted from sitting around doing nothing just about all week. I cannot believe the mismanagement of this company from the TSMs to the COMs and those higher. Why can't someone figure this out? We MLSs know how to figure out minutes, MLS availability, etc., but we're not allowed to give any suggestions, etc., because we're just lowly MLSs. The COMs are particularly useless and a waste of corporate dollars. More money taken from MLSs to give to someone with a title that m ...

Has anyone else noticed that the bosses are uncharacteristically quiet since about Wednesday?  Am I being paranoid or what.  It is very unusual not to hear something....anything....from the higher ups.  I work in the southeast region.  Let me know if it's just me.  I guess no news is good news? ...

Why So Quiet?
May 01, 2015

I am not asking for constant updates on what's going on with EVERYTHING with this stupid company, I'm not asking for the complete low-down on what how you are planning on screwing us next, but this disappearing for days, no emails, nothing telling me about OT or backlog, no return of emails or phone calls or even a demeaning reprimand for something I did or did not do, just something that says "I'm here working harder than you" (yeh right).  Something that says I'm in me ...

Anyone Else Notice How Quiet It's Been Lately? Sm
Oct 17, 2014

Usually there are a couple emails - and that stupid "joke of the day" daily, but for the past several weeks - nothing. Pretty quiet which makes me wonder what is really going on with this place. I also like how they'll let us know about the new pay scale based on that quality 2.0 on 12/25. Merry Christmas MLS !! We're screwed you over even more on your pay !!! ...


Why Cant They Dictate Someplace Quiet?
Jun 01, 2010

There are 3 different very loud noises going off in the background and it has given me an instant migraine! ding-ding-ding-ding-ding duuuuuhhh duuh... duuuuuuhhh duuh... bong....   bong....   bong....   What is wrong with people?  How can this doctor sit there himself without screaming? This is seriously how people can just flip right off the deep end. ...


Why Don't These Docs Go To A Quiet Space?
Jul 23, 2013

It would not be a bid deal for MModal to TELL these doctors how to dictate..I am sure they are clueless as to what comes over the phone lines. A bunch of cackling hens in the background of an already mumbling dictator is just ridiculous. Why do they not just tell them that phones pick up what is in the background? And while your at it, teach them how to end a dictation, cause the dialtones are killing my ears!!! ...

"Quiet' Ergonomic Keyboard

I am currently using a Microsoft Natural 7000 keyboard.  The space bar is getting more and more difficult to press (sticking), so I am looking to purchase a new one.  I would prefer something where the keys type a little quieter and also one that is a lighter color (not black).  Does anyone have any recommendations that are not extremely high priced?  Thanks! ...

How Do You Find A Quiet Space To Work When You've Run Out Of Room?!?!?!

I recently moved into a small two bedroom house.  It's an older house with a very creepy basement that is not finished, is damp, and just gross.  Until I can afford to convert the garage or re-do the basement, my teenaged son has one bedroom and my 8yo daughter and I share the the master BR.  Meanwhile my husband sleeps in the LR on the couch (our relationship is basically that of friends now who can't afford divorce).  Anyway, my desk currently is in the LR.  ...

Has anyone found a decent keyboard to use with the new computer.  I hate this one.  I cannot feel the keys, because they are as flat as a pancake (if not flatter).  I want to go out and buy one, but don't know what would be compatible....another Del keyboard?  Please help. ...


I'm Not Sure If This Is The Right Board, But It Is
Jan 14, 2013

It is so very frustrating!  I type for a wound care clinic, and, of course, a great deal of the patients there are diabetic, as am I.  About a year ago I learned from my diabetic teacher that a local supermarket chain pharmacy offers all diabetic supplies and meds for free, whether you are insured or not.   At least once every couple of weeks I type a note in which the doctor says the patient hasn't been able to afford his/her diabetes medication or insulin, and they seem to ...
