I saw a report today from a local rehab facility - no name


Posted: Jan 28, 2013

and it had the doctor's initials at the bottom as usual and then "MedQ" as the transcriptionist ---- so XX/MedQ.  This report was typed in the last couple of days, some two years almost since there has supposedly been NO MEDQUIST, but only M-Modal??????  Could it just be an IT glitch that has yet to be corrected or is there still some form of MQ?

That is exactly what it was, a glitch - Dinosaur

MQ is no more. This is something they have just not changed yet. If you go the M*Modal site, there are many things that have yet to be changed. Under the Human Resources Dept alone, there are quite a few polices that still state MedQuist. I suppose they are too busy counting our mouse clicks to be bothered with such trivial matters as finishing the "re-branding" in all aspects of the company.
