Round Rock/Pflugerville area MTs

Less than a year ago, the account I worked on was completely off-shored (within about 6-9 months of Nuance purchasing Transcend). I was put on a new account that supposedly had lots of work and it at least had a reasonable amount for a while. I actually liked that account (or rather set of 2 accounts) which would explain why that account went to EPIC. Today is my first day on a new set of accounts, new region, etc. We were told that our account assignments were based on o ...

QA picked this up. I had ischiococcygeal area which I could find listed as one word on google, but I could not find it listed by search criteria which I separated the 2 words. I can find ischial and coccyx, but not together as the dictator is stating. The only thing that makes me wonder iif QA is right is the context before the words. He stated he has 2 ulcers at the ischiococcygeal area. It seems like in this case it would be ischial and coccyx, but I cannot docume ...

I worked all day today for less than what I made per day in 1985, at my second-ever transcription job. I hang by a thread to my rental home (already lost home I owned) and belongings, as do so many others...each day I force my gnarled and painful fingers to their respective limits, well beyond their limitations, eeking out just another hour...this hour for the cat's food, another hour to pay the internet bill, so I can work another hour...and so on. I remember when I was in my mid ...

Questions from http://www.dol.gov/wecanhelp/3rdparty.htm How are/were you paid (salary, hourly, by piece or by job rate)? What is your rate of pay? Is "I'm not sure" a valid answer? Are you involved in any type of interstate transactions, such as shipping or receiving goods, producing goods, making telephone calls, processing credit cards, etc.? Yes. Are the hours worked records an accurate reflection of the hours you worked? Do you perform work prior to or after signing in ...

Dirty Deeds (and they're done dirt cheap) ...

Which is worse, having no work, or killing yourself for 8 hours to make $50 or $60 and being so resentful and tired that your own physical and mental health is compromised? Having no work, or watching the sites you've just mastered disappear to India (or back into your MTSO's newbie queue), only to be replaced by worse sites with new learning curves and back to square one again? Having no work, or living with the realization that you will never be appreciated, you will neve ...

The patient has a Hills-Sachs lesion. It sounds like they want to do a s/l round plessage?? for treatment. I cannot find this anywhere and may just don't hear it right. Thanks. ...

Without this board I would feel even more isolated than I already do, so I would like to say thank you to all of you for the support and the laughs. It makes work life a little easier for sure. Cheers to all of us enduring life as an MT in 2014, the crazy dictators, sketchy platform, demanding supervisors, etc etc....with dignity and pride for the important work that we do. Clink....and drink! :-) ...

IMO, and again, this is only my opinion, hitting rock bottom should equate to more than just what we're earning now as individuals. In order to judge whether or not the FIELD of MT has hit rock bottom in America, we would have to look at it as we see it on the inside and think if it would be a career we would choose to support ourselves on if we were just choosing careers for the first times as single people trying to support fresh out of school or a person changing careers to a ...

So QA keeps telling me to review the acct specs as I continue to format certain reports incorrectly. Sigh. I have looked and there is nothing in the acct specs that states anything about formatting, but yet if I say anything, I will be the "bad guy" so I am just going to keep quiet as much as I hate to. I would rather be able to talk with them, but I have enough experience with these people to know how it will turn out:( ...

Today our inhouse hourly waged MTs group figured out a way to keep our work in our clinic and not being outsourced. We are going to make our present wage AND get back some of the doctors that went to outside line count charge. We put our heads together and figured it out and our director (not an MT in any way, shape, or form) is all for our plans. Now that is what I call a first step to keeping our jobs in house! We were scared to present this but it would have been worse ...

just wondering. Was it at a lower rate before. and now its higher. What is going on? anyone know. was it always 99% and now its 99.5, i thought a few years back it was like 95% ...

A couple of months back I posted my opinion about how things started going south for MTs when we no longer worked directly for the hospitals. I decided to put my paycheck where my mouth is and started looking. Lo and behold, practically in my own backyard I found a large hospital group who had been outsourcing everything, but then took it back in house because of poor quality and TAT. My new job starts in a few weeks. Great benefits, more leave time than I curre ...

Hundreds of jobs out of TAT this morning across the board. Betcha the clients are getting a little bit cranky. While you are holding your employees to unobtainable standards of perfection to perfect your VR so you can get rid of us and send the meager rest to India, you will have run this company into the ground first. Don't the clients penalize you when reports are late? Make sure you pass that loss on to us, the MTs. Don't dare take respon ...

Does anyone know where to get GOOD quality ones? I've been suckered TWICE by buying them online---they are these little thin things that break every single time before I can get them over the ear piece. The only ones I've found so far that are good are the ones that come with the headset, but I don't want to buy a new headset every time I just need new pads. I'd be so appreciative for advice on where to get good quality ones. TIA!!! ...

Where are you set up? I am moving my desk and office stuff around, I find if I do that I actually work better (I know that sound strange, but I find that it's true!) My mother used to move her furniture around every once in a while... LOL Not that it made a huge amount of difference honestly, but it made her happy and it did liven things up a bit. So, my question is, where is your MT station set up in your home? I thought about moving out by the kitchen and out of my offi ...

What? Anyone else? I have to copy my dictionary and expansions. Cannot call support for this. Have to do it on your own. Want it done in a couple of days. They give you an option to go to a special webinar for dates Januar 20, 21 and 25th? HELLO????? I JUST GOT THIS EMAIL THIS MORNING AND I DO BELIEVE IT IS THE 26th. Gosh! GET ME OUT OF THIS COMPANY!!! I HAVE HAD IT!!!! IT SUCKS!!!! ...

with CCM requesting folks do schedule changes also as usual these days. I don't know about you, but when told we can "set our own schedule," I took this to believe we create our own schedule and then work it. If the Q doesn't have enough work available for us to do, then why do they still give us this option to do? There's nothing more frustrating to me than signing in to work, not having any, and then being ask to work later. If I wanted to "work late ...

A male patient comes in with low back pain. He has point tenderness and muscle spasming in the multipitus (?) area. I have never heard of that and have searched everywhere and all reference books.

I am getting ready to enroll this week with Andrews for medical coding, and am really looking forward to this new challenge and learning opportunity!! After 30 years as a state employee, I'm actually switching careers. With that being said, I was just interested to find out "where" people like to study in their homes when studying 4-5 hours a night and working assignments. Do you sit at a desk with the computer in front of you, or do you use the dining room table, a comfortable ...

I have always worked for local hospitals and doctor's offices. I have never worked through a company, but with most of our local area switching to VR I am having to look to companies for work. In our local area our transcriptionists usually are paid about 12 cents per line, but I am noticing most companies pay is substantially lower as i saw an ad for Sten Tel paying only 5-6 cpl. Could anyone tell me what the norm is for pay with companies? Thanks for all help. ...
