I absolutely hate the account I type for....hate it. Is it really THAT difficult to want most of the physicians dictate correctly? I said 'most' too because I do know that to expect all of them to dictate correctly is ridiculous. I can't even average 10 reports an hour on this account because of the errors. They mumble, slur their words, clip their words, rustle every paper around them... and I'm taliking about 80% of them! This is a new account to me and I don't know how the other MTs do it without pulling out their hair! I said something to my team leader and she brushed it off.. you know how doctors are... I used to work in large imaging facilities and a large medical school/hospital and this would not have been put up with. We would tell them what they were doing incorrectly and it would be resolved (mostly). but these people still need to say something to these doctors! This is per-report pay and there are no short reports, none. How can I make minimum wage while typing 6 reports per hour? Just because they have an MD behind their name doesn't make them God and I think that's what this facility does. Maybe I've just been doing this too long and it's getting to me. I've been dying financially and I think I've just had it...
