First Time Right - CPL being decreased if the QA submission rate is too high

E-mail from boss stating we needed to get this down as a team. How about putting us back on our primaries? With having to do multiple accounts, it is hard to remember all the "facts" each account commands. When working OT, I never got any familiar accounts. Go figure. Wouldn't it have been wiser to let me work on accounts that I knew and was faster on? I know, this is unrealistic thinking/reasoning. If the doctors/NPs dictated bet ...

Okay, if I am reading the e-mail from corporate correctly, that means that if a MT produces 5,000 lines a week, then the QA submission rate should be no more than 10% of lines which would be 500 QA markers or at 5% that would be no more than 250 QA markers. Is that correct, or am I reading it incorrectly? Or is my math incorrect? ...

Awww after teleconference with the bigwigs from the Q, telling us how smart and brilliant we are and they trust our ability to make good decisions, they still insist our QA rates will be low enough and we will not get dinged for QA submissions over the 5%, because we will find everything we need in the "reports they are allowing us to see". Yeah right, and everything I touch is going to turn to gold. Are they serious?? I just figure lots of blanks going to clients. No one ...

Usually my respiratory rate values are in the teens. This time it's 97 and wonder if I should question. Patient is 92 years old and has weakness and dimentia. I've searched for rr values and it shows normals 12-20. ...

The problem is not getting paid for time incurred. You get paid for lines but not time. Also, transcription is very gender-biased. Management knows all you nice gals will never revolt and will just go on working for peanuts and accept being cheated every way they can figure out to cheat you. ...

I was just offered 8 cpl for straight and 4 cpl for speech with bonuses. Does that sound reasonable? I understand apparently there are some rates better than this. I have worked for this company for years as an IC and they recently offered me this. I am just wondering if this is a fair rate. As an IC I made 9 cpl. I never have done speech yet with this company. ...

Do we get paid our full hourly rate for down time? ...

Just great. Even though it says on their little line count thing that I do 488 lines per hour, benefit rate goes down $3.00 an hour. I didn't do that many before so what gives MM? ...

They told me the amt I would get is the same as my benefit rate of four hours paid by mmodal so I guess I won't bother. It seems to be more of a pain than its worth. I will just take the benefit rate times four hours. Can't live on it but better than nothing. ...

1. Combine the 2 largest companies .... a lot of MTs. 2. Developing technology, such as Epic, leading to needing less MTs. 3. Offshoring, for less; thus, losing accounts but not MTs. 4. Summer vacation for many doctors resulting in less work after Buyout. ...

Just FYI, he is definitly not saying "torsion." ...

I originally posted this as a reply to another poster, but wanted to re-post it so that everyone could see and understand why our pay has decreased so drastically the past year. This is an excerpt from notes to financial statements in MQ SEC filing obtained from www.faqs.org: "Cost of revenues decreased $4.0 million, or 7.5% to $49.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared with $53.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. This decrea ...

I heard that KS has recently reduced everyone's line rates by 1 cent and only pay a flat fee for radiology reports now. Which other MTSOs have done this? ...

Since the transition, I have not gotten nearly as much ILP QA as I used to. Not much in the way of US MTs either, but I expect that with their blank contest. I have a feeling they have made ILP work only QA'd by ILPs now without the extra step through US QA. If that is the case, there is going to be a lot more garbage reports going to the hospitals, especially considering ILP QA barely even look at reports before sending them on. ...

In the past 4 years, my productivity requirements have risen 40 LPH, in 2014 our productivity bonus was taken away, now in 2015 our passing QA scores have been increased. I feel sorry for anyone entering the MT field these days. ...

Thanks in advance for anyone who can help! ...

I was working for a company that got bought out by another company and the client I was typing for was paying 12 cents a line, now the new company will only give me 7.5 cents a line for the same client. This client is ESL and very hard to learn and his files are always 10+ minutes each. They told me I would eventually get 10 cents for him, but that was almost 6 months ago and still only get 7.5. I have asked for a raise to at least 8 cents and they denied me. What would y ...

I forgot what our percentage is supposed to be on QA submission. ...

I am sooo tired of looking at that email they sent out about this. I thought i read they will be sending us something for us how to figure out this submission lines crap. my head feels like it weighs 100 pounds right now between work and this mess they are throwing at us. thanks for any help. ...

How do we send a report directly to the hospital with a blank, doesnt it automatically go to QA/MME when we put a blank in a report? ...

What is the QA submission calculation?? I can't find the email. Please help. Thank you. ...

Report from a new dictator, not English-speaking of course, 84 lines, 10 QA markers. Listened through the whole stupid thing twice to get it down to 10 markers, looked up old reports on the same patient, wasted a great deal of time trying to find anything helpful. So finally sent to to QA. Just checked to see if THEY were able to fill in any of the gobblety-goop. Hasn't been done. This will probably set me over the allowed 5% and for all that horrific work I di ...

Hello, can't find it in MMCentral, can't locate the orig email (somewhere in my PCs cyberspace) but thought it was 5% per pay period. Can someone please point me to the HR policy that dictates this? TIA ...

Well, 18 year employee here. (PT for 10 years) came from TL which was GREAT company and then MQ bought out. I have very chronic illnesses that I absolutely cannot go and get an outside the home job. I, as stated, don't have a real problem with FTR, because frankly all of us MT/MEs who have done this job for any length of time should be doing our work correctly anyway. This is something I have always prided myself on, and yes it reflected my production rat ...

On the 3 horrible reports that I had to submit to QA yesterday because of the 3-blank rule, thus losing 3 cpl probably, QA had no more luck filling in the blanks than I and sent them through with 5-10 blanks. That makes me so mad -- not at QA, just in general that I get penalized financially when it was the DOCTOR'S FAULT AND THE PICKY FACILITY'S "RULE." ...
