Major Brain Fog

Okay, let's sum it up: 1. Imedx hid information on losing more than one account for months, this is a fact. 2. Number one above is confirmed by Imedx having an acct going to EPIC, and a few days later 3 accounts that we "do not have access to anymore" as stated by manager. 3. Number two above did not say we lost, or Nuance took back, etc., just "no access." 4. In other words, work shifted to cheaper folks, we get that. 5. Lack of any emails in 2 weeks regarding what is going on is abso ...

The word is "hyerekplexia" or is it "hyperkeplexia" ??????? My Stedman's keeps sayingit is hyperekplexia and the doctor keeps correcting me with hyperkeplexia. And on the off chance that I am correct, do I just change it to what he wants and let it go? ...

Hi All. Hope you are healthy and doing well in general. I'm new to posting on this site, though have been following it for years, receiving some invaluable information and tips. Thank you for that. Recently, however, I've been faced with upcoming termination in a few months due to my current employer's decision to outsource to Amphion. I know very little about this company, though from what I am learning it sounds like MTs are earning anywhere from 8-14 dollars per hour. Can anyon ...

I work for a company whose initials are TTS. I was told that QA works on editing and transcribing too and QA has the ability to assign work to themselves. In other words not only do they take work away from the MT but they can choose which work/dictators they want to do. Isn't this a conflict of interest? I know other companies do not allow double dipping but it was confirmed to me TTS does this and that the QA people have the ability to pick and cho ...

Have there been any major changes in benefits/wages, etc. since the buyout? ...

Does anyone else run into this? I get all these major error reports from Fiesa, all of a sudden, one after another, with errors that I know, after 15 years of doing this job, I would not have made. I know with certainty that these errors would not escape me. Anyone else get this kind of BS? ...

Thought I was going to make it through today with no Major error but no such luck. I typed "There are" and they heard "The" Trust me either way the sentence says the same thing and in no way changes the meaning of the sentence so I get dinged a major error for this. I really hope these quality people get good bonuses for these type things. Just another major error to add to my very long list. More in the last 2 weeks then in my entire career of being a transcription ...

It seems like every morning when I check my email there is at least one major alert in my box - no critical - but always something that they are complaining about. The one today was completely ridiculous, I don't want to be too specific just in case they read this board but I did what they said I didn't do. Going to contest but so maddening!!! It seems the harder I try the more they just pick me apart about stuff. ...

I know these don't count towards bonuses etc but it still unnerves me to open my email nearly every day and seeing these stupid alerts with my percentage in the tank. Some of them I take full credit for others I dispute but it still shakes me up so therefore some of the mistakes I make is just because I am nervous about literally everything I type. ...

.....for missing a pronoun at the begininng of a sentence... Symptoms started instead of His symptoms started....major error? I think not. Minus 1.0 whole point for me! There is no consistency in the grading of reports. And again I say, this is a subjective error...someone heard it, I did not and it does not matter anyway. Doctors do not dictate complete sentences all the time. Not to mention the fact that this NP dictator is ALL over the place...go back here, change ...

These FIESA fiends gave me a major error for leaving out the word "includes" after a header. It's all I can do to do this job these days with my son seriously ill. The last thing I need is this incessant nit-picking. ...

radiology. Electrocardiogram shows a sinus mechanism, right bundle branch block. The rate is radiology. She had electrocardiogramshows a sinus mechanism, right bundle branch block. The rate is ?????? From the BS doctor (those are his initials) who is a horrible ESL dictator that I spend a lot of time straight typing--waste of my time. ...

Need advice, should I even bother? VR transcribed patient is a 9-1/2-year old xxxx. Got major error and corrected to 9-year and 7-month-old xxxx. Is that truly a major error??? Of course it was on short report so completely screwed my percentage, so frustrating and irritating. Let me know what you think guys? ...

I am making less and less at my at-home transcription job. I have not been motivated at all lately, and I also never have enough work when I am motivated. I feel completely depressed. I have rare occasions where I am excited about job searching and entering a new career and/or going to school, but then I seem to lose all hope and motivation. My paychecks are no longer enough to support me. I guess I'm just looking to rant to relieve some of my stress and hopefully so ...

I'm majoring in Information technology and specializing in health informatics but I'm curious to know what other areas people are going into at school after job loss. What are you going to school for? ...

Now, I already knew I didn't do well financially this year. It was evident every time I had to "borrow" money from my retirement account to pay the bills each month. But, I just received my W2 form, and discovered I did even worse than I thought I did! Working an average of 6 full days a week, 10-12 hours a day, with only 3 days of time off all year, and no sick days, I made just over $20,000. This with over 30 years of extremely well-rounded medic ...

This just tops of my bad day. I get on to check previous reports from yesterday and see 1 correction on 1 report out of all of them. QA filled in my blank, and the error category is "major" with subcategory "not applicable." Platform is Cornerstone. Since when is it a major error to leave a blank for something we aren't sure about? After listening, again, I still can't tell if it is the word QA put in or the word I thought it "might" be; hence, the blank.& ...

will not let me edit a job. its terrifying. ughhhh. I want dqs 6.1 back. ...

Never in the last year have I ever ever gotten 4 major errors in one report, I don't think I have ever gotten 4 in 3 or 4 months. They will never be able to convince me that something hasn't changed. I am being marked off for things that are completely ridiculous and some I don't think I even did. Wow - what a way to start my day - makes me really want to work hard for them. ...

Keep track of every job you send to QA with blanks or other. Compare job numbers to those jobs that come back with major errors. Want to bet that most of those jobs we have a hard time with are the very same jobs that we are getting marked down for? Most likely the very blank or the very problem we had is what the major error is for. ...

Just got my first FIESA (actually 2) major errors within minutes of each other. Now I feel like I'm part of the club. Anyone know how much bonus $$ they get for making stuff up? Needless to say, I did not commit the errors they "found" as I keep notes on dictations that I have questions about or problems with. How insulting this all is. ...

Got 1 last night and 1 this morning. One I have to admit was definitely my error, the other bul &*&(&(. Hope the QA people choke on their bonuses. Have an interview today (non-MT) with benefits and decent pay. Tired of working so hard to perfect their SR program so they can jack us over either by sending it overseas or finding they need less and less of us as the program gets better (if indeed it ever does). Wish me luck. ...

So I check FIESA this morning and they give me a MAJOR error for typing "and" instead of "on" on a very poor quality recording... As in..."we will need to see on whether we need to check" and I put ....." we will need to see and whether we need to check" I told my acct manager - I said really that warrants a MAJOR error - she replies Yes, really............ I have THE WORST account manager in the company - she NEVER EVER EVER sticks up for me.. maybe she hates me - f ...

I get notices of major errors and don't see anything about what constitutes a major error. It sounds subjective to me! I'm more than fed up with this punitive grading system. ...

Now that the holiday season is upon us many MLSs and MTs are required to work Thanksgiving and/or Christmas Day, I am wondering if coders are doing the same? Thinking of making a career change. ...

She put actual names on some of the audit scores that are sent out to all of us. General information about how we did as a team is fine, but I don't think she should have had names on there. None of my business about what person specifically failed or passed. Hopefully an apology goes out to those ladies. ...

This dictator was the WORST of the WORST too! I bet if I were ABLE to go back and listen I'd still hear 83 or at least not be able to tell the difference. AND ANYWAY....How in the h-e--- is getting the patient's age off by one lousy year (esp at that age--might be different if it were a child)..... So, but for that "major error" on the report I would have gotten 100%....no other errors. Instead I failed (psfssst!) and get under 99%. Really? I r ...

on a report that I know I did not make and it knocked me below 99%. Of course, I can't prove it. It is SO irritating. Okay, through with my rant now. ...

So today I get a letter from BCBS of GA. Whoops, they had a security breech on their website. Someone "may have" gotten acccess to my name, SS #, and credit card info. They made "security changes to prevent it from happening again". They are offering me one free year of "identity protection" under Debix Identity Protection Network (has ANYONE out there every heard of this company?). They want me to leap on to the DIPN website and give them all my information so they can prote ...
