I was laid off last week from my in-house MT job. I have an interview this week at Nuance. I am wondering how much you all bring home in a 2-week period? I've never worked production so I don't know what to expect. And could you please tell me if you're part-time or full. Thanks! ...

Not trying to be nosey, just curious. ...

WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE EVERYTHING SO HARD!!!!??? i specifically got up today to log on for the hour of MOT. then i see an email that says we don't need it, but its vague. then another email says, we need it, but not until after 3 central time. i even tried pulling in a 3:30 to 4 time from the swap board but it wouldn't let me. my shift starts at 4. so i wrote and said i'd just log in and do it and forget the swap board, but i'm told feel ...

Well, I didn't want to totally quit being an MT, just in case things changed and some wonderful job pops up someday. So, I found a day job, not MT, but data entry for a car repossession service. It pays only $10 per hour, but it is a guaranteed 40 hours per week and offers some employee benefits such as health insurance and PTO. No, I don't like what they are doing, but it is legal and it IS a job. I used to turn down jobs based on principle, but I was the ...

I just wanted to share something that I discovered that works well for me. Aside from my typing skills, I am also a graphic artist. I love to draw and do drawings on my computer. For this, I use a TracBall-style mouse. It is a stationary mouse that has the ball on the top. It is used for precision when working with graphics. While it definitely takes some time to get used to, it has also proven to be a great way to speed up pointing and clicking in my working wit ...

I check MT Stars frequently just to see what people are saying. I'm a QA person. I'm at the tail end of my career (38 years) and I must admit, I'm fairly happy with Nuance. I have a great boss and thankful that I can work from home, get fairly decent health insurance and have working hours that fit my lifestyle. I HAVE taken a drastic cut in pay which is a bit disheartening. The "Good Old Days" are long gone. I'm very thankful for ...

There's just ONE, eensy-weensy little problem with MT companies providing their employees with a 401K as one of their benefits: What person on a measly MT's earnings can afford to put anything into it????? I can't spare even a dollar at the end of each pay period, and haven't been able to put anything into even a savings account for years. Did it ever occur to them that a retirement account is USELESS if you don't pay your employees enough to fund it? ...

This is outstanding. Now I don't have to keep e-mailing myself stuff. I can imagine all kinds of MT-related applications. First 2 GB free but you can pay for more. https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTEwNjg1NzkwOQ ...

I've been employed by an orthopedic surgery practice for about 6 years now. I think it was after the first year, I started having to compose office notes from the paperwork the patient filled out (all of their history), plus the templates the provider filled out. I hated it and protested to my office manager. Then gave up, then about a year later I asked her to talk to the doctor about his hand writing to no avail. One doctor never made me read his writing, he would fill out the templ ...

wouldn't it be really great if there was some sort of email address for us to contact our hospitals directly...without the M*Modal propaganda? We could say "Dear Dr. ___, I understand you are really busy and dictation is low on your priority list, but if you could take an extra moment and clearly articulate your dictation, the reports would come back to you with less questions and/or errors." I know...I know...quit dreaming. It is really sunny and warm outside my window ...

they would put people on their strength worktypes and specialities instead of put us on what we are the weakest at and then complain b/c they are constantly out of TAT. Just amazing to me how we were asked what our strengths and weaknesses were and after that email, I was put on my weakest out of everything. Perhaps I am the only one to realize that if you were given the work that you are strongest at, you would be able to go through it faster, but not with Nuance, they seem to thin ...

To have the doctor, RN, resident, or whomever is doing the dicatation to do the demos rather than the MLS slaves? I mean, since they are getting paid a living wage (unlike the MLS slaves) and they already have all the pertinent info, like business entity, location, signing, etc, why aren't THEY selecting the copy requests, etc. from their own little drop-down lists, instead of having the hapless MLS slaves searching all over creation for a doctor they misspelled or mispronounced. &nbs ...

If corporate realized how hard and difficult our job is and perhaps, at the very least, wiished us a Happy Holiday season and thanked us for all we do? And rhen I woke up and smelled the coffee. ...

ICD-10 course rather than be required to stay with them for 2 additional years after the apprenticeship, working whatever shift they feel like sticking you with? I feel like the difference in the amount of money you'd be making in those 2 years with them versus anywhere else would more than pay for an online course. I'm not seeing the draw to this. ...

if MModal would do just one thing....ONE THING...to make our jobs easier. i swear they sit around and see what they can do to make everything single tiny little thing as hard as possible. right now i'm talking about that freakin' time card and trying to enter PTO based on our NJA down time. to make the times match up, i guess i just lie and make up times, just to play their stupid little make everything harder game. ...

When you have a report that is with a difficult dictator and within the first few lines you have a blank you know you are going to send to QA - if the report is long and there are a few other blanks you might have to leave but might be able to get if you spent time researching, wouldn't it be better to not even waste time researching those blanks since all the lines are being counted toward your 5% submission rate - it would seem that it would be best to do the rest of the report as quickly ...

...If HIPAA laws clearly stated medical records of United States citizens could not be sent out of the country...wouldn't that be protecting the client better AND keeping jobs in America? Why won't they? They have their laws on everything else! ...

They would just make the formats for all work types the SAME across the board. It's NOT the changing of dictators/facilities that is so difficult...it's the having to check 1 thousand different sets of account rules!!! UGH! ...

they were going to pay us 7 cpl? From just glancing through the posts here that is what everybody is basically saying. Did anyone make more than that? I for one am NOT going to approve my timecard because I DON'T APPROVE! I'm still up in the air on whether I will finish out this week or not. ...

It just ticks me off and makes me feel stalked. I find it extremely negative and not helpful at all. ...

If it is all about saving money, it seems to me that people who get medical insurance costs MM money. Strange laying off part timers as they don't get medical insurance or any benefits. Not saying I want anyone laid off but just think it is strange as they are so cheap. ...

This is how it went for Webmedx a few months before they sold to Nuance. I sure hope not, because I love my job and do not want to go back to working for Medquist. ...

A box appeared and said to type in characters, but there were no characters that appeared? If the moderators wish to contact me at the above e-mail address, that will be fine. ...

Boy wouldn't they get a rude awakening. ...

Seriously, I honestly do not know what is going on in the western region. It wouldn't be so bad if there was just no work in my BOB and I could ask for more back up accounts from other BOB but the whole western region is out of work! It was the same way over the weekend, isn't there usually work on the weekends? I'm a single mom and can't afford to take it off with no pay - I REALLY NEED THIS INCOME so I'm stuck taking it out of my PTO but I won't ...

Are they kidding? Who is going to be sending ANYTHING to QA and take a chance of having their pay cut? Especially if it's the beginning of the work week! Yes, the clients will be getting blanks and I know they will be complaining. The Q keeps sending us e-mails telling us to cut down on QA submissions. Are they kidding? No amount of "tips" will help if the dictator mumbles, sneezes, is ESL, etc. Don't they think we know all the "tricks" already? Besides that, we can't ...
