Okay, this is the second time while on this board (I only frequent it about twice a month) that I have come across "80% MT work being sent overseas". Could someone please fill me in (you can email me if you think it will be erased on here). Thank you so much! ...

I was reading below about the TAA. I have less and less work. I have had NJA all this week, never ran out at this time of year before. Last time they blamed it on the storms on the East Coast. My pay is continually going down, especially after the previous pay decrease, and now NJA. My question is how do I know if my accounts are going oversease, and this is why I am out of work to apply for TAA. Thanks for any help. ...

<sigh> With the USA going down the toilet fast (see Military Detention Act), I fleetingly thought about pursuing something overseas. I used to work with a lady who took a position in Saudi, Arabia. They paid to move her over there (into a dorm-type building with other MTs), where she lived for a year or two. She was subjected to incredibly sexist treatment by the Arab men BUT loved it there and wound up marrying an American she met while there. Of course, ...

Am skeptical of the 8cpl they SAY for straight typing...and most MTSOs nowadays have very little stright typing. This MAY be a comeon for one thinking they can make up for the 3cpl. You cannot live on 3cpl. Complicate that with all ESL dictators and then to have to pay taxes. Welcome to slave labor. ...

I was talking with some of my fellow MQians and the repository came up. Some people think that the repository was made so that the Indian workers can better understand their jobs. Now that I think of it I believe that is it so. What do you guys think? ...

I really need to get out of the MT profession. I am a newly single mom and am making less money as an MT than I was 5 years ago. I just cannot afford to do this anymore. I always see coding jobs posted at my local hospital. Do you think these jobs will be sent overseas just like transcription? I am thinking of going into nursing but don't know yet. What would be a good healthcare career to get into? ...

How can any company be compliant with HITECH/HIPPA when they send work overseas. Isn't that a HIPPA violation and should the patient be notified that their personal information, diagnoses, history, SS#, in some cases home address, DOB, etc, is sometimes mentioned in reports and overseas MTs have access to it? How can any company be compliant, especially with HITECH be compliant with these new laws, regulations, etc, when the patient is not aware their information is accessed overseas ...

Hello all, my question is this: my husband was just deployed overseas to Europe for a year and I hope to join him. The hospital I work for uses the DocQManage platform from Medquist. Does anyone have any experience with working overseas on the platform? I have asked my HR Department about working overseas and have yet to hear an answer from them. Thanks in advance! ...

I've tried finding this info on my own but can't seem to locate it on any reputable/trusthworthy site. What percentage of the MT/MLS jobs is sent overseas? I'm only asking because I was "bought" by them a short while ago and have recently purchased a house. When I was "bought" by MQ, all of my work went to India or somewhere unknown. My QA scores were always 99% to 100%, I could breeze through the line count w/ no problem, and I had a team lead I liked, so ...

Its like my group/team has almost ceased to exist. There is only work in the late afternoon up through the evening and then poof, its gone. We were told that a lot of it went off-shore, but now struggling to learn new accounts and its taking a toll on production and I am having to send more to QA. Anyone else experiencing this? ...

Here's a different sort of question. My husband has a dream of relocating to England. His company has an office there, so work for him might not be an issue. Now, this may not come to fruition, (or if it does it might not be for years down the road), but I was wondering if anyone knows if American coders get hired in the British medical system? I'm currently in school and not yet certified. I'm just curious to know if anyone has come across this. ...

Company I worked for recently outsourced us to Nuance, and now I'm wondering what the likelihood is that they will, in turn, outsource our entire account overseas? Do they pay less to their people who work overseas? Something's in the air recently - just in the past week or 2 - among me and some others on our account, and it just seems weird. We're getting harrassed more, we're getting more major errors marked BY FAR than previously, and some have even been threatened with be ...

I just spent the last 40 minutes on the phone trying to update my husband's old Net 10 cell phone to a newer model for his birthday. All I wanted to do was to keep his current cell phone number and have both it and his remaining almost 500 minutes switched to the new phone. Should be a problem, right? WRONG!!! Obviously the CS person was overseas, most likely India. She kept having computer problems and kept putting me on hold. Finally after much frustration an ...

Does anyone know if Perfect Transcription sends their work overseas? ...

It seems it would behoove them to keep the work here unless they will remotely manage. ...

My company has begun, one by one, sending accounts overseas. We only have one account left being typed by those of us in the US, and I imagine that one is going over there soon. They lie to us about where the work is going or tell us that there's just not a lot coming in. But MT's can go into each job typed and also see the amount of work coming in. It's obvious that the jobs are now being typed by people whose first language is not English. I'm ...

Can anyone tell me how closely affiliated DSG and MedQuist are, and if DSG outsources to India? We all know MQ outsources, but I'm having trouble getting information.

I've heard DSG uses MQ's software, just wondering how far they are in cahoots with the Q on other things, like outsourcing to India. ...

On numerous occasions over the past year I was told by my CCM that the reason they are outsourcing to India is because there is a shortage of qualified MTs because the average age of an MT is 55 and they are starting to retired. Like the infamous ***** and is ridiculous claim about 650 lph on ASR, that MTs have an IQ of about 6. ***** Do not name/identify individuals. Moderator ***** ...
