If any of you knew me in person you would know it is not in my nature to whine. But I am going to DO SO HERE... My wife is the MT in our family not me. Last Thursday the laptop she uses for work died. It was an old AcerVista laptop. So what is a person who makes a living on a computer do when the one he or she uses dies?? Common sense is you go get a new one right?? These companys you folks work for could not be more firmly entrenched in the tech world. Do these people realize just how d ...

Is it better to go with the tried-and-true Andrews or M-tec as opposed to a local community college that offers MT courses? I was thinking it would be better to stick with the former, but was intrigued by the fact that the local junior college seems to be promising "internships". I'm not 100 percent sure yet, as the informational meeting isn't until the beginning of March, but wondered what the prevailing wisdom might be on the subject. Thanks in advance for any info. ...

We at WMX were purchased by Nuance and our Community Page doesn't seem to get updated now. Is there something along this line for Nuance employees? Or will we be told after we find out what pay/benefit adjustments will be made? ...

Does anyone currently work for Community Health Systems (CHS)? I have been offered an MT position and would like to get some feedback from anyone who works for them! ...

Isn't this the company that is a scam? They are back on mtjobs.... ...

I would like opinions on taking a coding program at a community college, then being properly prepared to become a successful coder and getting certified. Cost is important to me, which makes this an attractive option. What is the consensus about this? Thanks for your comments. ...

Have you seen the new message on Community Board at the top of the page, "Please look for the QA Communicaton and another company update within the next week." Scares me and I am sure the rest of us still employed there. So sorry for all those who were laid off. ...

Ive heard many opinions on coding training at Andrews, Career step and community colleges. I have just come across EverettCC and their coding course is completely online (scheduled,not self-paced)and taught by teachers who are certified medical coders. Im just curious if anyone here has attended or heard about this school. ...

Am I right to think "they" don't know what an Independent Contractor is? You can't tell someone what schedule to work if you are an IC? Right?? REQUIREMENTS FOR INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR1. Be located and perform all work within the USA.2. You are an independent contractor providing transcription service to whomever wishes to contract with you, are familiar with IRS regulation regarding ICs, and meet those requirements/qualifications.3. You will perform all the w ...

While purusing the classes offered, looking for possibly a career change, lo and behold, no MT classes being offered any longer. Coding, yes. CNA, yes. In home caregiver, yes. Nail tech, yes. ..... MT, no. Thinking of real estate now as there is an upswing in that direction. ...

What a bunch of nonsense. They wait until well into their smoke and mirrors BS to say that they lost two accounts and had to let people go. Guaranteed they knew the accounts were gone a while ago--seen this with them before, and the decent thing would have been to warn people--but there seems to be no decency here any longer in how management conducts itself. Question: What is with all the new hires this summer who have been scrolling on the community page? ...

Me again. If you live anywhere near a university or community college, consider applying there for a job. It will most likely be civil service, which means you will need to take a test to measure your skills, and then you will be ranked on the interview totem pole according to your test score and level of skills. It's a fair process. It doesn't matter who you know. It only matters HOW MUCH you know. At our local university, there are 2 clerical categ ...

I'm taking my first steps to get out of this field - I'm 48 years old, I've dedicated myself to Medquist/MModal for 16 years of my life and I am making less today than my 15-year-old son who just got his very first job. In my lifetime, I never thought I would be 48 years old, on Food Stamps and barely making minimum wage in a field I gave nearly half my life to. It is a complete insult. I've been going around and around in my head how to get out of this fiel ...

Hi - I am struggling with what to do, somebody please help! I have read that Andrews and M-TEC are the best schools online. I am just concerned that I won't do well without hands on learning in a classroom? I could really use some advice from some people who have done the coding courses through these places? Which is the best, and how does it work exactly? Thanks ...

My point having been made in 2 short weeks, I will no longer be hanging out on this board. Nuance, in its attempts to hide its egregious activities with certain employees, has infiltrated this board and it is no longer truly a community of US medical transcriptionists, but has become what could more aptly be called, "A company opportunity to do damage control for all POTENTIAL new employees about what the former employees said when they quit." The board can, however, still ser ...

Community - rde
