The and a could certainly sound the same when you are looking at ASR output the said the, and the sound quality is the usual not good.

and you know people have died from that! - LOL

it's really important to know whether it is THE chair or just some random chair!

Only if it's the - ELECTRIC chair! (nm)

i have always felt this was unfair because some words can be subjective - when I was QA

[ In Reply To ..]
i never marked stuff like that. I was afraid I was wrong, not the MT. Obvious stuff, yeah but not nitpicky stuff

Ridiculous! - mt

If they want perfection (just about), then why don't they pay more so more time can be taken on a report. We need to work as fast as we can to make any money. At the rate I am paid I need to do at least 200 LPH to make 10 an hour. What MM requires multiplied by my rate, that is not even minimum wage.

99.48% - Kimi

I received a 99.48% on my last audit (had 100% correct audit the following week), but got a very nice "just slow down a bit and proof your work more." Of course then we get a QA letter sent out and I'm not listed as passing (not listed at all, LOL). ~sigh~

don't you know that eventually we are all going to fail - mme

I flunked one too a while back because of putting a instead of an, yeah, that compromises patient care. Give me a break! It is in their plan to get rid of all of us US MT's. Wake up and smell the coffee

I couldn't even get hired by them - mttx

They told me I failed the transcription portion of the test, even though I knew I hadn't. I asked them to send me a copy. They wouldn't, but they did let me know what the mistakes were. I double checked my Book of Style, and I was right. They were wrong.

Am supposed to call QC to have a "mandatory" meeting but you know what?? I really don't care at this point. I am sick and tired of these stupid audits and the ticky tack crap that we get audited for. I am at the point where I want to get fired to get u/e. I am just tired and burned out. ...

the word "the," can you imagine how hard it will be to find another job when you have failed audits? People probably assume (and rightly so) that you put in erroneous information or left out vital information from dictation -- something that brought about harm to the patient. There is no way you could possibly get them to believe that in reality you put out beautiful work every day all day, and it was a discrepancy over whether the dictation read "Lab tests were normal" versus "The l ...

99.5 not good enough. QAM getting more and more terrified about our minor error index. Gee... The big laugh, though, is all the minor errors she listed are not minor errors. They are a step above minor errors. I haven't been doing MOT because my hands hurt too much because of the number of corrections I have to make and getting there with either the mouse or keyboard shortcuts. Can we says overuse injuries???? Worse than straight typing. I would love to see the QAM do my BO ...

My score was 96.6. All the reports docked were ASR reports, missing a few things here and there like leaving in oven instead of correcting to even - well, you get the gist. There were no critical mistakes. Not once, in all my years working for hospitals or doctors have I had an aduit. I'm wondering if it's just that ASR is only a year old to me and that's why I'm having issues. Oh well. ...

I got 2 ASR audits lately. Is everyone getting them? I only do about 50 ASR reports a month and they seem to think I use my mouse too much. I am dangernous with short-cut keys. I tend to not stop to think and hit the wrong key and something goes whacky. I always know where my mouse is! Anyway, we run out of work at least 3 nights a week. Am I supposed to master the short-cut keys so I can do my work faster and run out of work sooner and sit here longer a ...

and told I should have caught something (which I should have). It was something trivial like suggestion versus suggestive. Got a mail from mentor that I should have slowed down & caught this. I've been an MT for over 2 yrs now, and it wasn't something that put a pt's health in any kind of harm. Knew I had one very hard ESL auth go to auditing & watched it until it was done. 100%. Any word on a nice job? Not hardly. Love my jo ...

Last audit was 99.4 something percent accuracy. LPH was about 265. But oh, too many of my reports are sent in with blanks (worst accounts I have ever worked on) and I need to send more work to QA. Do they really think I am going to sit here and do this crap for 3 cpl? It would not even pay my utility bill. Think they will ever face reality? ...

I have gotten audited twice in the past week! They have pulled 6 reports on me. I thought that they only do 3 and do it about twice a month. I think something is going on there. What is the passing score. I know it is 98. something. Thanks! ...

Dec 03, 2009

It's obvious they're cracking down on us, nit-picking, etc., to what end? Everyone, myself included, seem to be getting less than 98%. Is it just to keep us on our toes, or to have ammunition to hold against us when the time comes to ship everything to India? ...

Jun 29, 2010

Does anyone know how the audits work? Is it the average score of 5-6 reports together? What if you failed 1 report but passed the other 4-5 and the average of all of them together is still passing? Are you put back on 100% QA for the 1 report? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks ...

Does anyone know the rules for placing an MT on 100% audit. Do you have to fail 2 audits in a row or just 2 audits. I failed in Feb, passed in March and will probably fail in April. The point system is whacked in my opinion, but my opinion doesn't really count. It is probably listed somewhere on MQ Central but I find navigating that system is somewhat like navigating a maze. Unless you know where to find it, it takes forever. I have sent an e-mail to my Q ...

I have been put on a written audit and received 92%. So I am being given 1 more week. Which means I am more than likely out of here. I did not not have any Major marks, but only a lot of minor - i.e., two liters versus 2L, grams versus g. I should just quit and go work at the big lots, less stress more money ...

So, I failed another "audit". I have to bounce back and forth between at least 10 accounts, therefore 10 different client profiles AND have to keep up with the ever changing QA preference of the day! I'm so depressed. It's really heard to understand that VR stuff and ESL dictators. Has anyone failed more than a few audits and continued working? Will they fire me? I, like everyone else, am really struggling, but I NEED this job. Any ideas on h ...

last week and that is all that were done. Score 97.8. :( I don't agree with the errors but what can you do. So, out of the approx 40 plus reports I did per day last week, only THREE were audited and that will cause me to fail my audit? I haven't heard from anyone about this yet--could that mean that they are not done and will audit more reports? I hope so, because then my score will probably go up as those 3 reports were unfamiliar accounts, ESLs...... ...

Has anyone had to have a computer audit to get hired by a transcription company? I have had a request and have to sign a form to let them do a remote audit. It sort of scares me because I don't use my computer solely for work. Really don't like the idea of someone having access to my computer. Any thoughts? ...
