Posted: Feb 15, 2015

Where is mmodal's IT department located. I called and the person I spoke hardly spoke English. Is it in India or TN?

He told you to turn off the computer and turn it back on. He also had the personality of a wet paper bag.

The former - Let me guess, also

Are you the same CC - who was struggling with

their proposal to you re: working every holiday? This place is every bit as bad as we tried to tell you. They scheme for each and every way to take more and more of our money from us. In 2003, I made $54,000 here. Last year, it was $25,000 & I worked harder, demoralized & anxiety ridden. If I didn't live in the total boondocks, I would have left years ago. This place will suck your bones dry if you let it. 16 months til retirement, thankyouJesus.

yes - CC

I am trying to decide if I should take their offer. I also did research that turned up a bankruptcy. I know I keep posting questions here, but my entire department Is out sourced and I am trying to make an informed decision. I appreciate all your input. What happened to our GOOD jobs?? I can't believe I would work and some one else would make the profit

Well, did your research - show you how they

cheated us out of our lines several years ago and they didn't have to pay us back? They just made a contribution "in our name" to AAMT (or whatever their initials are) and walked away scot-free. As for your last sentence, believe it. We are living proof.

To CC - I cannot believe

you are considering working for this company. Again, did you read all of the posts and the ones to Marie as well? There isn't one positive thing said about M*M. Take unemployment and find a real job or at least an MT job not working for this company. I wouldn't even waste my time researching, it is a no brainer. Just don't bother!

I have a sister who is the head of med rec in a hospital in Iowa. This hospital is part of a large system. They are moving to VR within the next year. Those MTs are worried about their jobs. I told my sister to give them a heads up - their $20+/hour jobs will be gone. Their superb benefits will be gone. I feel for them - this is happening to all of us - being paid peanuts for our experience and knowledge. They already have EMR in place and there are patients who, once they've log ...

I have been going back and forth on this, but doc says, "He was also found to be hypertensive. Patient's hypertension was managed by *anesthesia* and a 12-lead EKG was obtained." My gut is wanting to capitalize anesthesia to show that it was the anesthesiologists in the Anesthesia Department who managed the hypertension rather than anesthesia itself, but then again, maybe not? Would it be safer to not capitalize it? ...

When do you capitalize departments? I have been in the biz for 10 years, and my current QA staff is giving me conflicting feedback on my capitalization. One QA manager is giving me errors for not capitalizing, the other is giving me errors when I do! I was always taught that you didn't capitalize the department unless it was preceded by the proper name of the hospital (XYZ Hospital Emergency Department, etc). Also, as far as specialties, how do you handle those? For ...

I have always been under the impression that when a department is used as an entity, such as "The patient was seen by the Pulmonary Department," that it would be capitalized. If it were "The patient was seen in the pulmonary department," it would not be capitalized. This is to denote that in the first example, the patient was actually seen by a person, not by the department itself (a thing). I think this is an important distinction for clarity. The account I am on is saying that pulmo ...

With HIPAA regulations tightening on who can get a carbon copy of a patient's medical record, MTs should NOT have the responsibility of sending any carbon copies at all. All carbon copy requests for a patient's records should go directly to the hospital's medical records dept for a signed release verification from the patient for that copy to be sent. Reports being sent from any outside provider without the proper signed release from the patient should be consider ...

If they let us work remote after a short training period, pretty much anywhere in Arizona would do. Feel free to send a private message if you don't any to cause a flo ...

I've been observing Medquist/M*modal for the past number of years since their previous law suit. The technologies they have employed as of late are widely viewed as intentionally inhibiting, many employees stating that this speech recognition program, as well as constant shuffling of work pools, or "pods" prevent the familiarity that is central to profit,accuracy, and productivity. I intend to gauge the interest and willingness of participation in the current M*modal employee community. Pl ...

I am currently looking for a new online job. I have been doing medical transcription for nine years now but work for a small hospital. I do not currently have, nor does my hospital require, the AAMT book of style to be the set rules for our transcription department. We still use q.h.s. etc. I recently had a job interview but blew it because the company requires their MTs to know the latest AAMT book of style front and back. Is this a big deal to know this book word for word? Wonderin ...

If you have, can you explain the process? Did you supply them with a weekly log of your hours? Did you file to the state you reside or the Department of Labor where your company has its main office?

I am curious if anyone is an at-home transcriptionist who works for a hospital and how the department covers weekend shifts/hours. Also curious what kind of hours you are required to work during the week and how many people are on the transcription team. Or if you'd just share what your company does for scheduling and what the hours are. I am looking for some ideas for our team. Small hospital. Weekend coverage only includes priority jobs (H&Ps). Thanks! ...
