A community of 30,000 US Transcriptionist serving Medical Transcription Industry
Remember the good old days, when we worked either in a transcription pool, the medical records department or at a doctor's office? I was trying to figure out what a doctor was saying in a report and dreading leaving a QA marker for fear of "points"...
I remember going to hunt down the doctors in the old days, sitting down to have conversations with them. They would help us fill in the blanks and mostly apologize for not speaking clearly (at least they did at the hospital where I worked!) They knew us by name. They thanked us for what we did. I always got the blanks filled in so that my reports never ever had QA markers.
I can't even remember the last time my super called me, except for when they need me to work more. I'm feeling melancholy.
