Anybody notice a trend?

I have noticed over the past few weeks that the majority of transcriptionists wanted ads (not on here) are in-house only. I saw 11 job postings today looking for such and all were for in-house in different areas - and that's just today! One of the companies I have a contract with has lost an account in the past month due to their hiring in-house staff instead. Anyone else notice this? ...

around 9:00 p.m. Central Time. Any other MTs running out of work consistently around this time? I am wondering if the work starts getting routed to India around this time, because India is about 10 hours ahead of the US, so it would be morning time for India. The work just stops downloading and not even one job trickles in. ...

submission? I'm with a company that does this (amongst other bordering on unethical things)....I'm sure we all know what company.......cough MQ cough........ Anyway, is it just this horrible company that docks pay for QA over 5% and also if you fail an audit? I really wouldn't have a problem with docking of pay for failed audits IF they were fair, but this company doesn't know the meaning of the word fair. Just wondering if there are other ...

I have been looking for a better job for about 4 months or so. As of today, I have trained for 3 untenable situations. I won't name companies because my intent is not to slam a particular company, but to see if others are seeing a trend of companies saying anything (including lying) to an MT to get them to come aboard. 1) A company where they were to pay hourly, but once I signed on the dotted line, it became production...with hourly at some future date. As pa ...

Anyone else notice a trend that you get assigned to a "new" account (new to you and to Nuance) and work slowly builds up to a good amount, then starts to get out of control and behind, then starts to dwindle, then eventually it's such a trickle that you're constantly out of work? This has now happened to me 3 times, and I'm beginning to wonder what's going on. I know that staffing increases, when things get behind secondaries get pulled onto an account, and that a ...

Another poster below mentioned that her hospital hired its own MTs, stopped outsourcing work. It seems like most of these jobs are in-house, but I was happy to read that her hospital had all its MTs working at home. How I wish I could find a job like that! The few hospitals in my part of the state that do hire on-site MTs are too far away to make commuting an option, especially with the rising gas prices. I've been looking at hospital employee MT jobs nationwi ...

Are many companies installing Dragon for all their MTs to use, or are most using back-end VR where the MTs simply edit? Inscribe is going 100% Dragon. Is that an industry trend? ...

Should be an interesting, wild ride. ...

In almost every ASR report lately, there have been gross errors in the dosages of medications. In 1 report today, it had Colace 70 mg when the dictator clearly said 100 mg. Then in another report, it had Protonix 3 mg daily when the dictator said 40 mg daily. Watch your dosages closely!!!! Something is up! ...

remember the system used to automatically capitalize the first letter as you were typing..i.e. after a period (.) etc. well, it is no longer doing this....wonder why? wonder if there is a way to get it to do this as I found this to be a time saver... ....upgrade? things are seeming to take longer to me ??? ...

For some reason I keep thinking they covered this on the tutorial...but I'm a shift and don't have time to figure it out. When I did the spell check at the end (which took an exceptionally long time), it appeared all my text turned BLUE (liike it does when you highlight) and then disappeared! I didn't just lose my stuff, did I?Also so far, I don't see a big change in the headings. I'm typing them like normal. And I couldn't remember the new numbering sy ...

Posters, MTStars has a a few requirements for the job ads that are placed on our Job Seeker's board. These are in place to provide a minimum of information for you (company name, city and state of business and a visible email address) to do your research on before applying. We also have a minimum pay that can be posted (5 cpl for transcription and 3 cpl for editing, QA, etc.). You can see all of the ad requirements by reviewing the sticky note at the top of the Job Seeker' ...

That sometimes when you complete a job, the next job in the que downloads but then the second job that is supposed to come up in your que takes forever to show up? I sometimes think it has to take a minute to search for the very worst job to send me. ...

Easier to send to India this way..just saying. ...

we are locked out immediately? ...

in these few posts below that as they go on and you ask more questions, the OP reveals more and more about themselves and they give inconsistent answers and you can tell they really don't work for MM? I think some of these posts are made up. Changing the NJA policy for T-day? Letter of appreciation? Just trying to stir the pot and unfortunately too many people fall for it. Does anybody really believe a CCM sent an email telling us to check every 30 minutes tomorrow? That goes against ...

Work for a company for over a year, they switch accounts without notice. Is it common to just quit and move to another job, or is it always best to give a notice? I am not sure I owe them one at this point and need to consider my needs. ...

Yesterday, my TSM sent out an e-mail notifying us that in January, the team leads will be transitioning to other positions as that job description is being done away with. All I can say is I sure hope they had more warning and that it was not a surprise. The TSM also asked for patience with her as she assumes their duties. I wanted to laugh as I have not been overall impressed with the duties she was already performing. ...

... a lower rate of holiday pay on their most recent pay stub? We're now supposedly being paid by the DOL wage determination rate based on where the facility is located. I volunteered to work on one of the new facilities until they got caught up. The WDR for this facility is considerably less than the other facility I work on. I noticed that the holiday pay was according to the rate for the lower-wage facility that I agreed to temporarily work on. ...

I just got laid off from Proscript in an email, I think this was very cold, no warning, no 2 weeks notice, nothing......I have worked for them since 2005, this is just wrong..... ...

What if I don't give a 2 week notice? Is it really gonna hurt me? I doubt they give detailed information about what kind of employee you were. Maybe just dates. I have been with this company since the mid 90s and I hate to just up and leave like that, but I don't know if I can take it another day. Every week its something new. My pay is down to almost nothing. With the type of reports I get, there is no way I'm making 5% and living with my ...

Does anyone know if MQ can take some of your check that is due to arrive, already approved, if we suddenly just quit and leave? What can they do if we don't give a 15-30 day notice????? How soon do they want their old computer back? Any information about leaving without notice is really appreciated!!!! ...

Got a call from the insurance girl at the doctor's office today. Seems they've hired an in-house gal and are not needing my services after ten years. I look back on all the missed vacations I never took. Don't make my mistake. No notice and my salary was approximately $36,000 a year. I've been thrown to the sharks. If any one needs a rheumatology gal, let me know. My cable folks are turning me off, plus my phone, plus any other thing ...

I quit without notice. I think if a company is professional and treat you as a professional they deserve the courtesy of notice. However, I worked for a company where management and supervision would answer e-mail questions with "your question or message has been assigned a number. Please refer to this number in future correspondence regarding this. My GAWD. Give me a break! When I got an e-mail after I told them I was out of there asking me if I was ...

I read the post below from the MDI/Transcend MT who is struggling with BeyondTXT. When I was informed last week that this platform was going to be installed on my computer in a day or so and then training would take place for God knows how long, I hung up during the conference call and immediately resigned. I had started another job, which I was going to give a trial period before leaving Transcend, but I realized that taking the time and effort to learn this unfriendly user pl ...

I finally turned in my notice. I actually starting leaving abt 4 mos ago. Took a PT gig w/another company and just love it. I had gotten to the point that I hated to come to work. I found that I did not hate my job I hated the company that I worked for. My husband told me to stop complaining and find something else and I did. I went fulltime w/this company and am already making $4/hour more than I was at MQ and get this doing ASR....I hated ASR w/MQ. This companies system is so ...

Has anyone ever given webmedx a 2 week notice? Do they actually allow you to follow through with the 2 week notice or do they cut you off as soon as you send in your notice? Thanks! ...

that it now capitalizes the next letter after a period with one space. Is there a trick to make that not happen when I have to insert a word before the next word ("the" or whatever). Example: ...a 34-year-old male admitted for cough. patient complained of.... When I put the word "the" before "patient," it capitalizes the P in patient and I have to change it, or take out the period, put the word "the" in, and then put the period back in. Is there any trick so as not to ha ...

Hi all. I've been doing medical transcription for over 20 years, and have been with the Q for almost 12 years (the first year in the office and at home, and then they sent us all home). Been through all kinds of changes, from working in the local office and at home, to working at home, to being moved to the responsibility of another office, to that office closing down, then to working for a "virtual office" and finally a "service area." I lost count of how many superv ...

Anybody notice a trend? - ME

I agree with Saturdays being the worst - someone obviously has weekends off
