How long until Mmodal gobbles up Nuance ya think? - Nuance gobbled Transcend to
Posted: Oct 15, 2012
eliminate the third biggest so now they have a bigger carrot to dangle. Face it, Nuance's healthcare is just a drop in the bucket of all their endeavors.
Nuance already offered a bid for M*Modal... - MT

It's in court because they rejected the bid.
"MModal investors argued in court filings last month the companyĆ¢s directors wrongfully rejected a $17-a-share offer from Nuance Communications Inc.
My HDSM said the order was approved for my new PC but that's all she knows. Does anybody know about how long it takes? I don't have that much PTO left. ...
Just received an email that Transcend has acquired DTS. Perhaps this will help all those with no work find work.... (yes, I grinned when I typed that). ...
I am working 2 jobs right now. I am making a lot more with my second job and would like to just be able to concentrate on that one but the problem is that it is an IC position. My new job has advised me that they will always have plenty of work to keep me busy and we are actually about 4 days behind on dictation so I'm not worried about that. I'm also next in line for when a position opens up within the hospital to be hired in. I need to be able to plan accordingly as far as findin ...
So I don't really remember, but I do NOT recall them offering a choice of NOT accepting to become an employee of Nuance, just all the details of what the merger or whatever it was would be.
I get that they would not want everyone to quit en masse, but was there no choice even offered, which is how I recall it, and is it legal for them to do that?
So has anyone else been allowed to make that choice, i.e., UE rather than being sold to the devil?
I would be interested to ...
Re the post from the person who posted "So long Nuance." I could have written that post regarding time off without pay. When you get in your 60s (as I am) if you have an income you can get by on (my husband has a decent job and I am taking early SS), time with the people you love is the most precious thing you can have. In your 60s, you have probably already lost friends and relatives, and living life to the full becomes the most important thing in your life. At the same time, sometimes you ...
I wanted to make sure the new job was going to work out before I told you all about it. After 43 years as a medical transcriptionist (will turn 65 next month), I did leave Nuance and started working at Menards as a cashier. For those who do not know (since Menards is only in 14 states so far), it is the third largest do-it-yourself store company, right behind Home Depot and Lowe's. Though there are advantages to the new job, for example, certainly I'll be making more money (though a ve ...
I left MModal when they took over a company I was working for, so really I was only with them for about 2 weeks. Now I'm working for a company that Nuance is taking over. I applied for Nuance and I've been offered a job with them. They are already so disorganized. Just faxing in the paperwork to them has been a nightmare. The recruiter is scatterbrained. The HR dept keep changing things and not faxing me the correct paperwork on what I need to g ...
Rumor has it that now Nuance will purchase MModal!!! OMG... There will be no other company left. Nuance is horrible and now with joining hips with MModal it will be worse for all of us.
I left MModal and now with Nuance and things are not better. MModal will just continue to ruin the industry and send everything offshore or to VR and pay us pennies for our knowledge and hard work.
I am tired of sitting around waiting for work only to now be told that MModal will most likely be taken over ...
I'm a Nuance employee and know that our companies are constantly competing to be the biggest and (probably) cheapest out there. So I often will watch this board for trends and other stuff that the big Nuisance will pick up and do themselves.
Lately I've been seeing a lot of comments about your quality requirements, either being above or moving down to (what could it have been before???) 99.5%. I'm assuming our scoring is fairly similar, where minor errors are a ...
And I can tell you with certainty that M*Modal is waaaaaaaay better to work for. The pay is rotten just like everywhere else, but I have always been treated with complete respect by my bosses and co-workers. Nuance is the worst job I've ever had, and I've been working for a long time. They try every way they can to beat you down. Their QA is the worst I've ever experienced. I have nothing nice to say about them at all. ...
Or just a board for MTs in general? I've never spent a lot of time on here until recently, and the more I read, I started thinking it was really only for those of you at those two places? I've gotten good info from here and looked for jobs once in awhile but did not want to intrude if it was mainly focused on those two companies. ...
My company was acquired by Nuance a few months back and so far the only thing that has changed has been e-mail addresses. Paystubs even still reflect our original company name. Will they keep our proprietary platform or make us change to eScription soon? Also, we're all ICs. Does anyone know if we will be required to become Nuance employees at the first of the year? ...
It would be great if the CEOs of these cheap miserly companies had to trade places with us worker bees for a week or two like on the TV show Undercover Boss and see how long they would last. That would be an eye-opener. ...
I can't wait to see who wins the war and which one is left standing. Two classic examples of money hungry, worthless management companies I have EVER worked at. I hope they BOTH wind up in the trash can bankrupt. I only wish MTs could band together and make that happen sooner rather than later. This is all just so senseless. Ruination of lives..... ...
I want to work for their biggest competitor and hopefully help in taking contracts away from Nuance and causing them to feel the financial losses that we have been feeling for quite some time.
There has to be some company who is growing fast and obtaining some of their clients. Anyone? ...
I am currently an IC but seeking an employee position that offer a good workflow, decent insurance family rates and retirement plan. Do any of these 3 companies offer anything like this? I hate going back out into an office but may have to. It has occured to me as I am getting older that I have no retirement or decent insurance so something has to give. Opinions please. ...
From this morning's Wall Street Journal:
M*Modal, a medical services company owned by a J.P. Morgan Chase JPM +0.85% & Co. private-equity arm is preparing to file for bankruptcy protection in the next two weeks as it struggles under a hefty debt load and declining sales, people familiar with the matter said.
M*Modal is in discussions with its creditors on a prearranged restructuring plan that would streamline its trip through bankruptcy court, these peo ...
Wonder why Mmodal even keeps stable of MTs..since clearly they are a VR/EMR company. I wonder if they could get rid of this dead wait of these irritating typists they have to deal with and just move en masse over to Nuance? ...
