Well I have proven my point - anonymous

Posted: May 15, 2011

I worked 4.5 hours yesterday and did over 1400 lines! Typed 95 reports. If I apply myself I can make good money. I just need to stop doing other things when I should be working....I should be doing between 1500 and 2000 lines a day the way I look at it. Far above the 1200 a day minimum. Hmmm, well guess I better get to work (LOL)....Lord help me!

you answered talking to response-ss. gets confusing - small message

[ In Reply To ..]
you need to open the post from the poster you are taking to and then post a reply. So we know how to answer if there is an answer to be had.

Someone said something mean once attached to my post - and I thought it was for me and answered back defending myself - but she/he was not even talking to me, just posted it wrong.

I'm just sayin'. Because if the thread grows to 30 - 40 people speaking - things get out of hand and taken all wrong.

Point taken, SmallMessage.I've seen - that happen too. NM

I'm back!!!! LOL. But I did make my minimum line count already so I got some "wiggle room" tonight. Still got time to do some extra. Maybe I will make that 1500 yet.

Same here. - sm

Well, not as well as you did (yay to you!), but at least did better than my usual. Are you the poster that wrote about not being able to concentrate while working? That post kind of sparked me into action. BTW, what happened to that original post? I was unable to find it after I responded to it.

Yes I am the OP, and it was deleted - But could never get a reason why

Did you see anything wrong in that post? I'd like to know so I don't do it again. Thanks!

I looked for a totally different post once, found mine - but could not find the whole thread.

and the tread was only from the very end of April. cannot find it. and only found my response by searching archives.

don't get it.

Yeah its funny, I can see some of the responses to my post - But not my original post - nm

Go figure!

What type of work and what platform? Just curious. - adkmt

I'm going to assume it is ASR, but there is no way I'll ever get that with the amount of editing I have to do. I wish.

specialty you really don't like if that is all they are going to give you? Now, before anyone flames away, I was hired by the Q several months ago as a tier 3. I pull my weight, work my shift, and don't have too much to complain about except for NJA from time to time. When I was hired, they asked me specifically what specialties I like the most and what I like the least. I was told that if there was a specialty that I really disliked or didn't have as much experience ...

of us looking at DocQManage to see what the backlog is? Several times I have looked and still I don't get the work. One day last week, almost 200 jobs on my primary account (not sure if it still is) and then an hour later, nothing! Of asking us to switch our hours? I don't see how that is going to help if there is no work at many different times during the day. Of a CP saying we need to contact CTL to get a list of abbreviations allowed for a cetain account?

Fluency "upgrade" is. They spent how much money paying the techs to work on it & then paying all of us to train so that the spellcheck can now be inconveniently located on the left rather than floating and it now takes twice as long to upload a report because we basically have to go through 2 upload cycles...? Yet we still don't have the fuzzy physician search fixed or the question marks by the physician names in the ADT, or control-arrow moving to the end of the word instea ...

So much ire and angst pointed at MTSOs. I even read where the TAT is a marketing ploy :) It helps to remember that we're all in the same boat and for the same reasons, to support ourselves. What so many of you don't seem to get is that the INSURANCE industry is dictating much of the TAT. If reports aren't on a chart in xxx time then the facility/physician is dinged financially. If an MTSO doesn't meet TAT, they are dinged financially. So they a ...

With 30 years of experience over many platforms (16 of which are from home), what is the point of applying to any of these companies? They are few and far between. They certainly do not want to pay anyone what they are worth (since they can just outsource on the cheap)... Most of the time you don't get a response from any of them anyway, not here and not on MTDaily either. ...

I just looked at my review for March and I see all these 0.5 deductions for "blank filled in by reviewer." There are also Valid Blanks that take off no points. Sorry if this has been asked but did they say they were going to do this? And if so, when? Also, I listened to these blanks. There is no way they can tell me 100% what was said in any of them, which is why I blanked them. So they are guessing. Two reports I have gone through so far are for real ...

Many times, I've had absolutely no idea what the dictator said, yet ASR picked it up, and I felt so grateful and relieved that I had that to go by. Upon seeing it in print, I could hear it and confirm that ASR got it correctly. Otherwise, I would have likely had to leave blanks in those spots. It does help at times. ...

Backlog is such and such, and I care about this why? I have a schedule to work, if there is no work, I sign off because there is no work. If the backlog is low, I can't say screw it and go back to bed, I work until there is no work. And the Smart Summary, I have no idea what the purpose of that is, anyone? Quality and blanks reports,hum, no idea there either. Talk about waste of money and justifying your existence, not to mention wasting my time. ...

PA MT and others -- I have recently started for a company, where I am transcribing as well as doing QA/Management. Getting paid hourly for one and salary for the other. At some point down the road, I will probably be hiriing MTs as well. It is not easy, because I started out doing QA, then, having to transcribe on several accounts to make siure that when QA is done, it is done properly. Another thing to be considered when there is "lack of work" is the fact that there might be ...
