I know there was a claim number or something that we would file under...ughhh.... thanks in advance..
I believe you might be thinking of the TAA - petition that was being

I learned something else - see message
[ In Reply To ..]I talked to the guy there and was told that TAA applies when your hours get down to 80%. So 32 hours for a 40 hour work week. He was not impressed with MModal.
It - is
[ In Reply To ..]80% of your wages, not hours. We do not get paid hourly, so they go by 80% of your wages.

Training To Be An MT
Nov 15, 2009
I am a mom of 3 boys with a lot of secretarial experience. I have taken several college courses recently including Anatomy&Physiology, Medical Terminology, Medical Transcription and Advanced but cannot find a job. Everyone looks for experience. I am in the process of applying to Everett Community College for their certificate. I would love opinions from current MTs regarding your opinion on beginning this career. Is it still a good option?

Training For 7.1
Aug 07, 2012
About 6 weeks back I finished the training for 7.0. We were then told that go live was August 20, and that we had to do new training. I just did it. Ladies and gents, I am sorry to say I am scared to death. First of all, I have ADD, and it is hard for me to understand things right away. I am not stupid, but only a person with ADD understands what I am saying. I am going to go over all the training again and again, as that is how I learn things (even in college ...

Pay During Training

Hi all! I have applied to a few jobs since leaving my last one, and I'm finding that most companies do not even pay while the MT is training or trying to ramp up. Then, I was looking at Amphion, and they pay new MTs for 3 months while getting up to speed? That doesn't seem real! How can anyone afford to start a new job?! ...
Who Is Training ASR??? Definitely Not The MT!
Jul 04, 2013
Every day ASR gets increasingly of base. There are so many times when I have to sit and search each line looking for anything that remotely resembles what is being clearly dictated. It started out with maybe 35% accuracy before editing. Now it barely makes 20%. It inserts phrases that were never dictated, apparently just because that dictator dictated that phrase at one time in the past on a different patient. It is having fun with "ALLERGIES" now. It started off only usi ...

Regarding The Old Reports Used For Training At MDI
Nov 25, 2009
I believe that these are old reports used for training, but I don't think they are training new MTs on the account. I believe they are training VR. Someone mentioned below that it doesn't make sense to pay someone to do old reports that have already been done, and I agree with that also. Plus, think about the fact that MDI had never, ever trained like this before, even after receiving email after email asking where all our work was going and why we had no work. ...

With Whom Did You Complete Your MT Training?
Jul 01, 2010
To those of you who have completed a transcription course, who did you go through and why?

I have been an MT for eight years, and received OTJ training, plus I have an extensive medical background prior to transcribing. However, I have a friend who would like to complete a program, and while I have a few schools/programs in mind to refer her to, I would like to ...

Oh, yeah - and we have to pass the class with a test at the end too! I feel like I am in a volunteer job! Hmmmm, I ...
