Are these wacky audits only happening - lets figure this out


Posted: May 28, 2010

to people who have been here the longest, i.e., paid the most?

I dont know what an average pay would be now, but I am guessing 8 cpl for transcription and 4 for editing, so lets use that.  If you are making more than that, are you getting these insane audits or is it everyone they are targeting...

Answer Over 8 or Under 8 if you have received one of these failing audits suddenly.

 

I am over 8 and have had 2 failing audits in a row now.

Over 8, no failed audit - here 12 years NM

Over 8, but hesitate to answer for fear of testing the fates! - anon

I haven't had any sort of audit in I don't know when. Of course, I am so paranoid now that I re-listen to almost every report, thus production is waaaaay down and I don't make nearly as much as I did years ago.

over 8, failed miserably - depressed

Failed 2 in a row now.

I can pass audits on my other job at 99% and 100% consistently for over 2 years, but since they started auditing here, fail, fail, fail...

I have no clue what is going on.

Over 8, no audits. - anon

No audits that I know of in almost a year. Before that 100% on all. Been with MQ since they bought out TL.

how do you not get any? - sm

I thought it was mandatory monthly audits now.

And you said before you had 100% on all, but before this "round of changes," I don't recall ever having an audit and also been here since TL.

Strange.

Don't know really. - anon

I have never ever been notified of an audit or score in email, ever. But I used to notice that every once in a while on my QA feedback I would have one or two reports with a score of 100%. However, that was a long time ago. Now, nothing. No scores, no audits, no feedback, no nothing. I don't know, maybe they are auditing and if you pass you are not notified or something. Not quite sure how it works.
Same for me. - Tired

Every once in a while I will notice a couple with 100% scores, but to my knowledge I have never been officially audited. Unless that was an actual audit...but that was several months ago.

At 8 and got under 98% on last audit but... - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
nothing else happened. I wasn't re-audited or put on 100% QA. I guess it was close enough to be considered a passing score.

over 8, no audits, but poor pay - Adios

[ In Reply To ..]
Not been hit with bad audits so far, but probably because my production is so poor. Just can't let go of reports without them looking like they should. Probably too old school for this job these days.

Make 8 cpl - Trigger Happy

and passed my audit.

The docs and management brought in VR, and now there are too many MTs and not enough work.   Our workflow went from hundreds of jobs with overtime on a regular basis to barely anything left to type.  The company for which I work is not an MTSO, but a fiirm with local clinics, plus docs doing reports for other clinics/hospitals.  Luckily, we MTs work at home and are fortunate to get paid hourly, so during our slow times, we can either take PTO (if we have it) or wait for more ...

For Those Wondering What's Happening
Feb 06, 2014

You do know or remember that MModal is considered a distressed company, carrying around $750 million in debt, and last month they hired restructuring advisors? This article came from the Wall Street Journal. IMHO, another round of American MTs are about to be "restricted" out of a job, with more and more jobs going to India. This would explain why there are no jobs in any region, not because of snow. They need to save as much money as they can, big time. ...

If there's one thing I've learned in my 61 years (that's the body; the brain operates at the teenage level), is not to guess at the reason for things. I've followed the comments here about Imedx, some of which made me go "hmmm" and others had me rolling my eyes. You can guess the Imedx situation to death, but there's only one way to separate the "I THINK what's going on is ..." and "I KNOW what's going on."

Do You Thing There Is A Turnabout Happening In Transcription
Jul 19, 2013

Just curious if anyone is starting to see a trickle of companies taking back their transcription from the MTSO? I am starting to see some places who once outsourced bring it back in house. No hospitals, unfortunately, but the smaller to medium medical groups, afraid of the liability of having their medical records roaming all over India. I know of an HR person at a large group of clinics here who told me they are bringing it all back in house because of liability and HIPPA issues. They pay $20.0 ...

This is exciting, you guys!  Our local NPR station (where I work full time) is planning to air an hour-long radio cast about the effects of the electronic medical records implementation on our MT careers.  I was telling our producer that I worked for 27 years as a full-time MT, both in the clinic/hospital setting and at home, but 5 years ago I could no longer make it financially as a full-time MT.  That's when I went to work in the public sector doing something unrelated to t ...
