Any RAD MQ employees? - Question for you


Posted: Aug 18, 2011

How is your workload going?  I know there are a lot of acute care people who run out of work a lot, or get thrown in the cesspool, but what about the radiology side?  Does that run out all the time too?  I was there for Rad and was considering going back because I need a job.  I know the pay is not what I made there before.

RAD - Skeeter

Sinking fast here in RAD. Jobs are few and far between most of the time.

I work on the Spheris side, in Clarity - And there is PLENTY of work

If you can get in on the Spheris side, do it. There is plenty of work. I just finished my shift, and I am tired as H E Double Hockey Sticks! It was nonstop! I was transferred over about a year or so ago, and at first I was upset about it, the pay was per line as opposed to per report, but I am GRATEFUL for it now. My MQ accounts were drying up slowly, one by one.

OMG How Funny - Read Glassdoor Opinion Of Employees, US Versus Indian Employees!
Aug 05, 2013

I was just curious about what employees thought of Nuance on Glassdoor.  You read several US employee opinions and they reflect the morale listed on MTStars.  Scroll further down and read the opinions of the transcriptionists from India.  What a difference.  They are highly satisfied with their jobs and most have been working with Nuance for 6 to 7 years.  The US transcriptionists are very sad!!  What a difference..... ...

To Other New MQ Employees: I'd Like To Know What
Apr 13, 2011

sort of things you're getting QA'd for, to compare notes.  For instance, I'm new to VS, and I tend to leave in double words.  I think what's happening is that I hear it, so my mind just blocks out the extra one and I don't see it.  I spend a lot of energy trying to out-guess the QA, but no matter what I put in certain instances, I'm marked off.  If I put "The patient," then she fills in the name.  If I put the name, then she puts "The patien ...


For Those Of You (employees, Not IC)
Jun 02, 2011

I'd like to know how you are all dealing with it.  Do you sit and wait on work during your scheduled shifts without getting paid?  Have any of you filed for unemployment due to lack of work?  I wonder how people manage to pay for insurance, etc.  Have any of you quit your jobs and received unemployment?  How do you all manage?  TIA for any information you are willing to share. ...


Do You MQ Employees Sometimes Think
Aug 17, 2011

Someone jumps on this board, fires it all up by saying to use F11 for every ASR job, and then calls their CCM to say "read the MTstars board" and then they go check who is doing it and fires them, all the while the pot-stirrer looks all cutsie in the CCMs eyes and more work opens up for the pot-stirrer?Maybe it is my wild imagination, but it seems like all that "stop typing for a day" and if that does not work, then "stop typing for 2 days," and "use F11 for all ASR jobs," all feels so not ...

Statutory Employees
Mar 25, 2010

Could someone explain exactly what a company can require of an SE? Can companies force MTs to adhere to a schedule if all MTs are statutory employees? All the research I have done on this subject is vague, but it appears that SE and IC are almost the same with the exception of Social Security and Medicare being withheld and the employer's portion being paid for an SE. ...

Production Employees (not IC's): How Much
Jul 13, 2010

The compensation structure and "minimum" hourly or daily production expectations often encourage people in our industry to work unreported hours in order to meet minimums.  You have a day when you get a rash of the account's most trying dictators, for instance, and at the end of 8 hours you realize that you haven't met minimums...so you work another hour, while reporting only the 8 hours. Transcription companies are, of course, aware of this dirty little secret and do nothing abo ...

NEW MQ EMPLOYEES AND QA SUBMISSIONS
Jul 06, 2011

I was just looking back at some old posts relating to how MTs are penalized at MQ for sending notes to QA and I have to say, this really bothers me.  If you are trying to do the right thing, why is your pay reduced?  Here's my story:  I was thrilled to get a call from MQ asking me to interview, even more thrilled when I got the job.  I had read all the negative posts here but thought I would give them a chance because the only way to know for sure is to try it out yourse ...

Employees Misclassified As ICs
Dec 02, 2011

Some in the media seem to have discovered this problem, although the article calls it a "new" ruse. I followed the links and read the comments, sounds like there may be some hope for the IC's that are doing exactly what they used to do as employees back when we had benefits. Couldn't happen soon enough for me! http://politics.salon.com/2011/10/07/truckers_driven_to_the_shadows/singleton/ ...
