Graduating October 30, 2012 Looking for work

Hello! I was hoping someone could give me some pointers or ideas on where I could get my first job as a MT. Does anyone know of any companies that are inclined to give newbies their first chance? Are there any transcription jobs, not necessarily medical, that one could get easier to build experience? If anyone has any comments please let me know. Thank you. ...

I'm curious how many of you graduated from your medical coding/billing course and found a job to work remotely? I'm currently a transcriptionist looking to enroll in a coding/billing course, but will not be able to work onsite to gain experience that most of these companies are wanting. I've been doing some research and most of them want you to have 3 years onsite experience. I will need something remotely after graduation. I thought I would check here and ...

I am currently taking an MT course through At-home professions schooling and was wondering of anyone else that went through the program. How did you like or dislike it and was there job placement after graduating? ...

Before I get jumped on for trying to "stir the pot", I come to this forum quite often. I am a medical transcriptionist and am almost done with my coding course. I will be taking the CPC sometime in January or February. However, upon doing research on obtaining a coding job after graduating, I came across this. Of course the date is 2011, but it's still fairly recent. This is from the AAPC forum board. My heart literally sank when I saw this. O ...

Hello fellow MT's! I am almost finished with my MT course, and I would like some counsel from everyone on their experiences with continuing education after graduation. First I am going to go for my RMT as recommended by the ADHI. What tools and resources did you use that helped? Which ones do you recommend? Has anyone gotten a degree to enhance their knowledge, and if so, what degree? I have recently been discharged after 8 yrs in the Army and I have been studying in my ...

I work for Transcend and we are scheduled to be paid October 9th, but Monday, October 8th is Columbus Day and a federal holiday which means banks are closed. So will this push pay day up to Wednesday the 10th? I haven't worked here very long and wanted to know. Just wonder if the holiday would effect the pay date? ...

Don't they usually wait until right before the holidays to give us our annual pay cut? I guess they felt we deserved it early this year. ...

I hadn't heard much about this, but with all the problems they are having hiring and training, offering bonuses to sign on, etc. maybe (I might be dreaming) the changes will be for once to our benefit. Plan on sticking it out to see for sure. Call me a fool or an optimist --we will see which in October. ...

Really tempted to move on to another company, but Nuance has bought up the last 2 I tried that on. Now kind of curious to stay and see if any any changes the changes they hinted at for October will be good. ...

Does anybody have a clue what's coming down next week? Got a strange email (don't want to post what was said to give myself away) not from my TL but from her boss (which I have never gotten anything from her before) referring to my production, etc. and alluding to things changing next month. ...

I am no my shift right now......a lot of strange things lately. I canno get ANYONE to answer an e-mail. My boss decided to go on "vacation" for 2 weeks and will not be back until middle of October? FIESA? I haven't received anything from them in weeks!! ...

I read/responded to an October post, and can't find it. Down at the bottom of the main board are places to click for previous months, but not October, and the page only goes so far. I cannot find anything to click for next page. Is that stupid, or what? Thanks ...

Remember an earlier poster said they had heard that supposedly there was going to be "big news" in October or some such that would help MTs make better production or more money somehow? Some folks were leery, hypothesizing that any change at Nuance usually means bad news for MTs. This came to me in the middle of the night last night so it is likely off the wall. But, I think everyone will be required to clock in and out each time they leave the keyboard for any reason. In other words, no ...

Has anyone received the promised Q4 bonus for those who qualified (I think October 31st is the date I read on an old email). I was wondering because last quarter I did receive a little bonus and my stats have not really changed much for this quarter but I haven't received any email or any news if the bonus has been paid for this quarter. Thanks. ...

Reader's Digest, October issue, has an article based on physicians, nurses and pharmacists sharing their mistakes which caused fatal incidences. It could be a good time to write in a response on what is happening with the medical records too. You know, the errors made with voice recognition, lousy dictation either because of doctors, equipment or environment, and the fact that we are required to have 98% accuracy in transcribing reports, not to mention the off shoring.... ...

if dictated as: SOCIAL HISTORY: hudred pack years (period) quit October 2006 what should be the correct way of transcribing it? is it.... SOCILA HISTORY: A hundred pack years, quit October 2006. A 100-pack-years, quit October 2006. 100-pack-year. Quit October 2006. ...

Can anybody cheer me up. This is so disgusting I have just decided to take early Social Security retirement because my pay is soooo low, and the limit for 2013 to earn is $15,320. So I guess these disgusting pay rates are good for one thing. ...

Been here 10+ yrs. Did I miss something. Our new insurance plan starts 07/01/12, but the plan I'm on seems to expire 05/31/12. Ouch. ...

or will we be receiving an additional W2 from Nuance for that last payperiod that started on the 22nd? Thanks. ...

if you were me, a 34-year-old single mother, would you go back to school to finish your LPN degree (one year left) or finish your HIT degree (one year left also) and become an RHIT? Or maybe do both? ...

Setting up a doc for digital with a Phillips 9600 or 9610 (not sure which way to go)...what is the current (2012) best method for file transfers....FTPs....cost effective ways...Dropbox?? or a service of some sort...Need to make this easy yet compliant....please help...any suggestions appreciated :) ...

Maybe if MModal hired fewer employees from Microsoft they could afford to pay transcriptionist better and allow for cost of living raises. I have been a transcriptionist for going on 30 years and this company is one of the reasons we can't make a living wage. I am so tired of hearing the term "industry standard" because in the past when I worked with other companies and directly in-house I was paid more. Just because it is the "industry standard" does not make it right. &n ...

How about that. No *paper* record of me ever being employed by Nuance Transcription Services. Are they hiding something? ...

I have a friend who has his own small business and was the victim of identity theft. He now has to refile for the years of 2005-2012 and really cannot afford to pay a CPA for all those years and needs to purchase (at a great deal) TurboTax, TaxAct, or similar good quality software that is for home and business (with state preferred, but not 100% necessary). I know he was looking online to find these, but I figured I'd ask here for him since a lot of US are self-employed and migh ...

Wonder how much more our wages will drop as medical costs continue to skyrocket out of control. ...

Doesn't sound very good there either. OMG are there any companies out there who respect their employees and pay a decent salary with no VR ?????????????? ...

What is the current (2012) appropriate rate to charge for medication transcription services, either per line or per minute? ...

See below for what Nuance did for 4th Quarter 2012. - it is very involved - but - at the top of page two they state they expect revenue from Healthcare to be 1 BILLION in 2013 - Then on page 3 in the Question/Answer section Paul Ricci Chief Exe Officer states: " It has been and continues to be our strategy to diminish the amount of labor contribution even as we have acquired some firms with large labor populations. Our goal over time is to get greater leverage out of that labor contr ...

be acquired. Did that ever happen? Is it going to? Already been through 2 acquisitions and don't want to do it again, so want to know Transtech status before possibly applying. Any info? Thanks ...

President of Marketing made $7.58 million. CFO made $6.17 million. Executive VP of Corporate Strategy and Development made $2.52 million. Executive VP of Healthcare Division made $1.94 million. WHY ARE YOU WASTING TIME READING THIS? GET TO TYPING!! THE EXECUTIVES NEED THEIR PAYCHECKS!! ...
