If I see one more quality update Im gonna scream - sm

Posted: May 18, 2014

I am so freaking sick of this crap..Suspend the coder program because there is too much work? What did you do to make everyone leave should be your first question.. I can give you the answer 99.7% accuracy and daily constant threats of audits. This gets really really old.

Come on... lets roll! - we are the best, lets roll!

absolutely sick of it!!! Done, dun, never again, would rather sling burgers, at least your clients are happy when they see your work, i.e. burgers,fries, chocolate shake, OMG. And, the test is easy, LOL ;-)

Anyone that falls for their fake - sm

you are the best, you are the greatest team BS emails is just plain naive. I was always taught actions speak louder than words. Pay cuts, threats, performance updates, daily tips, on and on..GARBAGE!!!

Yeah. If we "rock" so much, then why doesn't - our pay reflect our rockworthiness?

We "rock" because we're making them rich. It's - probably the same line...

Said to sweat shop workers. All those poor people cranking out thousands of t-shirts everyday for a dollar a day...."you guys rock!"

In a dream world, I would love to see .... - Justcurious

everyone say "no more" and quit. They would be in a pickle and the foreign transcriptionists could NOT do the job, I believe they need us to clean it up. Any others feel the same?

No in a dream world - sm

I would like to see everyone just put the ASR jobs through unedited or barely edited until they get fired..let the doctors really see what we deal with

I very much like the way you think!!! Yes, - Justcurious

[ In Reply To ..]
I would also love to see what the final product would look like AND what the doctors would do when they saw it!!!

LOL thank you, I am very much a S-head - nm

Oh oh and at the end of the ASR report - sm

we could put the phrase,,"listened but not fixed"..kind of like the doctors dictated but not read...LOL

In a dream - World

I would type or edit and be making $20 an hour like I used to!

Absolutely, and I wonder if anyone remembers - justcurious

the good pay that we had. What a wonderful world that was when we were valued and rewarded on occasion. I would do anything for that transcription world again and the MTSOs who paid for work as IT SHOULD BE!!! Makes me angry just thinking about it! Well, it is time for me to get over it and move on. I am quitting very soon but have to have a job first and when I do, trust me, I will quit at the height of them needing me.

I left, and I'm gone forever. Even if they wanted - me back in the future - sm

(wouldn't hold your breath on that), I would not return to MT for any company, at any price.

The fact that these people are knowingly killing medical transcription means they want it to STAY dead afterwards.

I get 1 more job from this resident (yes, I said resident) and have to listen to her talk about axillIARY nodes, the oropharNYX, whether the patient is orientATed, and receiving PheneGRIn. Are there no requirements in medical school any more? And, God forbid, she put together a reasonable sentence that actually has a subject and verb that agree, as well as one that makes some sense instead of being all run together. Thanks for listening to my vent. Just too many rep ...

I know, I know ... all been said before but I need to VENT ! aarrrggggg Not submitting QA checked box but reports are being QA'd, so took a look -- In past, QA person and I haggled about capitalizing (told it is, i.e., Emergency Room NOT emergency room). For last month, moved to new account/region/CCM and these QA "experts" are marking me for ERRORS for capitalizing the example above (as previously instructed).

I am NOT KIDDING and I am not exaggerating I just spent one SOLID HOUR on a 500 second report from one of the worst dictators I've ever heard in my entire 16-year career, hands down. I literally made NOTHING for ONE FULL HOUR. Nothing. Almost 50 blanks and one full hour later, I honestly could not have given a crap by the end. They got what they got. I am seriously pissed off right now. That dictator needs to be punched in the face. ...

I have been a MT for over 23 years and have always received praise regarding the work that I produce. Grant you, I am not a CMT and I definitely do not have the "know" that a lot of MTs have but still, as I said, I have held MANY jobs in this industry and have never had any complaints. Within the last two weeks I have tested for two different companies, most recent Probity, on MTtest and have FAILED both!! With Probity I never made it to the transcription portion of the test before ...

Is it just me, or are there some days when you just can't understand a normally easy dictator? I've had this all day long today. People who are usually very easy to transcribe are suddenly talking like they've got a mouthful of marbles or they're skipping back and forth all over the report. YAAAHHHH!!! Boy, do I feel better!! ...

with lots of blanks because of poor quality. What happens? I get hit with MULTIPLE invalid blanks. That is ridiculous. Would they rather have me guess. I don't care if everybody else in the company can hear it, if I can't then I WILL NOT guess just to keep from having to send it to QA or QC or whoever gets it. There is nothing whatsoever constructive about FIESA. All it does is stress people out. ...

As SOON as I quit, which will be very soon, I will be happy to post any emails and replies that I get from Nuance. I sent my TSM an email about my pay and was basically told to take it up with payroll, so I did. I'm still waiting for an answer or non-answer from them. I won't hold my breath though, I don't really look good blue. I will also go so far as to post the pay tier that was on my last timecard. Beware the copier and paster Nuance! Bewar ...

The next time I get an error for something that VR should definitely know simply by having "learned" after 5 years of MTs "teaching it" by changing it to the correct term, I am going to request a reversal and fight it to get removed from me when VR consistently gets it wrong and DOES NOT LEARN. Why should I get the error which affects my pay when their program can't get it right after 5000 corrections? Similarly, recently I got a major error because the doctor on my 5th account (not my pri ...

I'm seeing a lot of these, “I hate my job” threads lately. To be fair, it's mostly aimed at Medquist, and other similar entities, but still. Gotta keep your chins up guys. As a student, I find these kinds of threads very disheartening. In the very near future I'll be joining the ranks, and I won't lie; I would be tickled pink to be making minimum wage, or any wage whatsoever. A hundred dollars a week would be great for me. Obviously that's not ideal, b ...

I want to extend a great big THANK YOU to everybody who has posted on this board, both good and bad. I never took the negativity personally or to heart. In fact, I considered it a lesson that I needed to learn with respect to the way this industry has deteriorated. That coupled with my sciatica (only when sitting) convinced me that it was time to move on once and for all, which I have. I would like to see others in this industry do the same. The biggest problem for me was findin ...

Hi everyone I just wanted to stop by really quick and let you all know that finally, FINALLY I am off QA. I was given two accounts today in addition to the one they had initially given me. I can now type w/o counting my reports and waiting for feedback first. It remains to be seen of course, whether or not there will be as much work as I was told but so far, this company has been true to their word. Still, four days on a very restrictive QA protocol was quite scary. I am a LOT grayer now ...

I saw the video, read the information, went to the meeting. Decided it's not worth stressing at this point, what can I do about it? But for the next 2 weeks I'm going to do the best job I can, as usual, and be a little more careful with my webclock punches. Then I'm going to use the old plan to track my lines as usual, apply any shift differentials as usual, and calculate my total gross pay as usual. Then when the 26th paycheck comes, I'll look at the gross pay and see ...

I ran an error report for all reports, all accounts on my platform for this quarter, 10/1 - 10/18. So far the Quality Index is 84% vs Quality Score 99.18%. Didn't they advertise this new error scoring as working out in our favor? Doesn't look like it to me. This is based on 2194 jobs and 105,358 lines audited on E5. I checked the box that says view all corrections on the correction report. ...

I just can't get going fast on these terrible accounts. I was doing 200 lph ST at my old job and nearly 400 lph VR (on EditScript) and I don't think I will EVER get this fast at MedQuist. I am really worried that in 2 weeks I will drop down low enough that I either won't get benefits or they will fire me or I will be making minimum wage. Worried... Rachel ...

Just want to let you know that Transcend has over 2000 employees and for every one of you DISGRUNTLED MTs who regularly post negative, nasty comments about Transcend on this board, there are at least 10 working here who are very happy with employment at Transcend.

You will always find a company that has an issue that you don't agree with or don't like ....get over it....There is not a single softwar ...

Just a quick line to let you all know that there are better things out there for you. I am now 79 days away from graduating with my MD. The only blocks I have left are orthopedics and pain management. I have worked my way through medical school, which of course means I did not have much time to study. None the less, I am in the top 10% of my class, and I attribute it to the information I learned transcribing. Even if you feel you do not have the 4+ years to put ...
