Wow ... that's VERRRRY interesting! - anon
[ In Reply To ..]I guess that explains a lot - why they are trimming the fat, so to speak, on their workforce and cracking the whip for higher production. Very interesting article ...
I guess whoever posted - "brace yourself"
[ In Reply To ..]must have known something. My TSM just got "promoted" to some fancy title, but couldn't tell from the title what exactly her job would be. Wonder if it was really a promotion or just like MME, a fancy title with less pay? Oh well, this is my next to last day, so I don't give a flying fig if MM goes the way of Circuit City, Pan Am or Blockbuster. Buh Bye.
I liked this part best - sm
[ In Reply To ..]"Doctors speak into a software system to have their medical notes transcribed in India." hahahaha
Sums it all up right there in one sentence, doesn't it? - NM
[ In Reply To ..]NM
I would absolutely love to see this company go under - or be sold out, whichever is worse. SM
[ In Reply To ..]and before everyone starts screaming about how many MTs will lose jobs, they won't lose jobs. The company will be bought out and the accounts have to be covered somewhere.
I would be very happy to see the suits get their comeuppance they so richly deserve, having their jobs cut, salaries cut, losing homes, etc., etc.
An eye for an eye...
Oh no, they won't be affected even one little bit - anon
[ In Reply To ..]Don't think for a minute they would even miss a beat if this company went down. Do you have any idea how many millions of dollars the CEOs of this company make? Trust me, they're sinking it all into some offshore accounts and dreaming of early retirements and long vacations in Tahiti just like the CEOs of every other American corporation.
If MModal disappeared off the face of the planet tomorrow, they would be on the nearest golf course swinging their solid titanium clubs again by morning.
seems like everyone missed the part about the article where - they do not even have American workers
[ In Reply To ..]"The company, which provides a service that allows doctors to speak into a software system to have their medical notes transcribed in India, is probably heading toward some kind of restructuring, the source said."
So now us American MT's don't even get a spot in the article, the entire company just sends work to India. UN FREAKING REAL
No, the poster above caught that - see sm's post - NM
[ In Reply To ..]NM
Does this surprise anyone? - old and burned out
[ In Reply To ..]We all know what a well-managed company this has been. Considering the amount of money Amy and Vern were taking out of the firm, I don't suspect they would have jumped ship without good reason.
speaking of Amy, she landed on her feet - see link
[ In Reply To ..]do you think she's really as smart as they all seem to think?
MIght be book smart, but not people smart at all. - SM
[ In Reply To ..]Like the one we have as director of medical records, over the transcription department. She's got an MBA, but not much common sense, dresses like a hooker in a professional environment and admitted flat out in a meeting one time that she knows nothing about transcription but she just signs whatever the 2 current supervisors put in front of her.
Backstabbing and two-faced as well as a blatant liar when asked about changes coming in the department; "we'd tell you if we knew anything..." but she's not telling any of the MTs that she's going to be the one getting rid of the department.
2015 is going to be a very bad year for our hospital. We'll likely end up like the Pittsburgh MTs, sold out to Nuance. Glad I'm going to school now so I can avoid that disaster.
She probably had the new job - old and burned out
[ In Reply To ..]before leaving MM. All these companies want an impressive resume even if the person can't manage her way out of a paper bag.

Last Check
Aug 17, 2011
I turned in my 2-week notice and working the last week of the notice. When can I expect to get my last check as I am waiting on labels from the company to send back computer and cannot get CCM to answer as to if check will be held until computer is returned? Is there anybody with this experience that can tell me how long to expect to wait for the check and to wait for the labels as I have nowhere else to turn for the answers?

PT Check $100 Less Than FT
Oct 11, 2011
I'm no genuis, but I think I have to make some changes here. My PT check for 20 hours was around 100 less than my FT 40 hour check. I like my FT job, good accounts, great supervisors, but the lines just don't accumulate there like anywhere else I have ever worked. Then I worry, what if the other company runs out of work or loses an account and I get laid off. There is no security in this business anymore. I guess, just don't burn your bridges b ...

Well, to the poster below in ESL garbage land, first let me say. I too was in that same place 2 weeks ago. An addition to my regular account, but it was all I was getting and NOT getting my OP notes at all. The reports were not more than 20 lines usually, but I spent much, much time in trying to decipher and be FTR. My CCM was very good about it, and told me it would be taken off and I would not have to do that account any longer. Of course, I wish I had ...

A doctor who cannot pronounce encephalomalacia! She fumbles around with it for a while and then says "oh well, I will just spell it" and did so like she was asking a question (did spell it correctly though). This is an English speaking dictator with an MD credential. Must be a resident as she has a co-signer but, my God, she should be more familiar with terms by now you would think. She also fumbles around with common medication names and mg instead of mcg for Synthroid. Fo ...

If You're Check Was Incorrect

and short by a small amount, say .10, would you notify your MTSO or just let it go? This is my situation and it is such a small amount I feel silly saying anything, and haven't brought it to their attention. I've got mixed feelings about it... the money is due to me, but it's such a small amount it doesn't seem worth pursuing. However, every little bit adds up. It happens occasionally by a couple cents here and there and normally I don't say anyth ...

I thought maybe they were referring to client satisfaction or employee satisfaction. They are referring to revenue size! So we are supposed to be impressed that Medquist or Mmodal or whoever we are today moved up 4 spots (by gobbling up smaller companies) while we haven't had a raise in years? With all that revenue they can't improve sound quality or pay the employees better? And do we really care the Nuance moved down a spot? No. Sometimes I j ...

Last Pay Check From Transcend
Dec 21, 2012
I have been wondering when we all see our last paycheck from Transcend/MDI. I remember a few years back when I started working for them and they withheld pay when I was a newbie (I can't remember if it was 1 or 2 weeks). I find it interesting that no one has mentioned when we will get that paycheck, if and or when we will be getting it. Don't we have a right to that pay they withheld? Why hasn't anyone mentioned this with the change over to Nuance. Probably ...
