excellent blog post on MT wages (and Transcend class-action suit)

Well, it's done folks! A couple of VERY brave ladies have filed a class action suit for make up to minimum and OT issues against Transcend. If anyone is interested in getting their own going against some other MTSO's, well, it's time to be heard. We're not going to take it anymore! If you would like info on the attorneys who filed this suit, please feel free to email me. A very proud day indeed! ...

Sorry - awhile back thought I was going to lose my job. I am so fed up with they keep lying to us about our pay, etc, - well I am cornerstone - saw someome on here the other day -usually do not see Cornerstone- anyway - I just emailed Shaw or whatever his name is - Amay's second hand guy - kind of scared but at the same time feel empowered ...

..has been discussed. I highly, highly suggest IMEDX does the right thing, or some money grubbin attorney will be glad to take on not on IMEDX's obvious and blatant playing with lives, but also the whole industry. Imedx is ripe for lawsuits, and they have deep pockets. Suits, wake up, we have nothing to lose now but a consult with an attorney. You clearly have and are going to continue to violate laws, now do the right thing. Also, you don't want to the Labor Board, etc involved from 5 ...

Does anyone have any idea how the above lawsuit is progressing. I received an e-mail a few months ago, informing us Transcend had not compiled all the necessary discovery and they had a second hearing late last year. Maybe one of the original 13 or so plaintiffs has some information ? Thanking you in advance. ...

Does anyone have any information regarding the above-mentioned lawsuit, plaintiffs v. Transcend? ...

Anyone who works for Transcend now or in the last three years needs to check this out. This is the real deal. For all of us who haven't made minimum wage or were refused overtime pay, you may be able to get in on this. ...

I haven't been to the boards for quite a while, but I was just googling to find out a current phone number for Transcend to put on a resume, and I saw about the lawsuit. What's going on with this? Does anyone know? ...

There ought to be class action lawyers lined around the block to represent us!!! ...

Wondering how/if all of us who work for MModal can start a class action lawsuit against them? What for you ask? Oh gee......lying to us, taking our work away from us, saying they'll pay a certain amount but really do not, bad TSMs.....etc, etc. What all those are called in legal terms, I have no idea. I am 60 years old and not close to retirement age yet.....Michigan does not allow part time UE, so what the heck am I going to do for a living for the next 2 years?&nbs ...

can be done. That is SO NOT true, and I hate to state the obvious, the elephant in OUR room here, that its likely management trolls. The law firm listed below is fantastic. And class actions work where 1 or 2 Plaintiffs step up and its converted to a class action for all employees. That's where ya sit back, don't have to do squat, the pros go over payroll and you get compensated if wages are calculated to be do you. Its simple, NOT some big drama fest. This IS America ...

Anyone know about any class action lawsuit by employees in terms of MModal? ...

I am feeling a little shell-shocked. ...

Yesterday I received papers regarding a lawsuit against Aetna. Has anyone else received such papers? Thanks ...

Anybody who in interested in filing a class action lawsuit against Toth Transcription/AP Medical/AP MedWorkshops please contact. I have spoken with several different agencies as I am sure most of you have and this seems to be the best route to take. Frankly, I do not care if I personally ever see a dime out of this man, I just want to see him have to pay for his fraudulent business practices. ...

Many continue spinning their wheels in misdirected anger at the MTSOs who are the secondary byproducts/bottom feeders of the much larger metastatic VR software giants currently monopolizing this industry. Start hacking at the heads of the snakes & the tide will start to turn for MTs. This below was posted on another thread and the first suggestion is spot on. 4cpl - Roda Posted: Jul 3rd, 2012 - 1:00 pm In Reply to: The abuse won't stop - Until we ...

I have been reading Steve Jobs' bio -- the more I read, the more I like who he was, what he stood for. Anyhow, this just STRUCK me -- from the ad campaign when Jobs returned to Apple, written, in part, by him:"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify ...

Are they that desperate for MTs and editors? It seems like on a daily basis they are posting this many at once. ...

I would like to thank you all for the many responses I received regarding my post last week, regardless as to if they were positive or negative responses. When I posted I knew I was putting my head on the chopping block so to speak. I respect everyone's opinions. and the reason behind all prior posts was to share my experiences with Transcend and hoping others would share theirs (good or bad) as well as to "vent," as I felt I was facing this situation a ...

Los Angeles class/Class A esophagitis. Is "class" capped or no? Thank you. ...

I found this blog I thought ya'll might be interested in. It's about a woman in her 50s who used to be a freelance at-home writer/editor who was paid per piece. She's now trying to re-enter the workforce. I haven't read all her posts, but I still thought it would be helpful to some of you who are trying to get out of MT. http://jobs.aol.com/articles/bloggers/gail-belsky/ ...

This company will follow their pattern. Good luck. ...

Is There A Market Reshuffling On The Horizon For The Medical Transcription Industry? Today I’m going to indulge in something I rarely do, much to the exasperation of my wife Carol. A goodly number of our conversations begin with her asking me, “What do you suppose…” and end with me saying, “I don’t have a clue.” I’m not sure if this reluctance to speculate is a guy thing or just a facet of my own particular personality, but for once I’m g ...

When I SEE ads that pay 7 cents a line for IC, I want to put my HANDS over my AUDITORY canals and SCREAM BLOODY HIGHWAY ROBBERY. Take your list of requirements and stuff 'em. ...

I have thought about it, did some financial figuring for paying my bills, and researched different schools in my area that offer practcal nursing classes WITH the option to advance to R.N. once working and.... I AM QUITTING within the next 6-7 months. I HATE HATE HATE NUANCE and everything it stands for, and I am tired of being kicked around and stolen from. There have been SO many MLS quit from just my team, and I can promise you I am going to be the next one to go AS SOON AS HUMANLY POS ...

I took a test for an MTSO last week that required extensive knowledge of prefixes, roots, and suffixes. I found an online resource that resulted in my getting 100% on all 4 sections of the test. I have to admit that I knew probably 75% of them, but this resource helped me pass all of the tests. http://www.globalrph.com/medterm7.htm However, I haven't heard anything from the company other than "Congratulations! You passed all 4 tests 100%!" No actual transcrib ...

I have always hated it when the doctor crams in every disease the patient has in the first line whether or not the list is relevant to the chief complaint. I can't think of anything more pointless than having a PA or resident dictate discharges when all he or she does is lift the consultants' impressions and plans and then plug in his or her standard "vital signs remained stable and the patient was discharged in stable condition." They just chant thru it, as fast as possib ...

An excellent spinal anesthetic was induced and mantained without complication or (s/l emit). Also under the heading ANESTHESIA doctor dictates "Final" what does this mean? Thanks for help! ...

Don't know what all the fuss is about. If you do your job well, right the first time, you've got no worries. I don't foresee that this will be interfering with me whatsoever! If you want to survive in this business (and I assume that most posters do as they continue to work in this industry) then you have to go with the flow. If this process eliminates weak transcriptionists, then so be it. THIS MAKES ME MAD READING THIS POST. So, MQ's process is to elimini ...
