If one is not meeting production requirements, what are my options and theirs?

I have always made my production requirements. But I don't think I will this time. Does anyone know what happens? ...

Are any of you ST MTs even meeting the minimum requirements these days? How many more excuses can there be for the lack of work? Summer was supposed to pick up - it didn't. Now it's the Jewish holidays, then I'm sure it will be the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Also, we never did hear about that "something spectacular" in June. ...

Trying to set a standard production requirement for VR. Can someone tell me what the average is for lines. Thank you ...

I am thinking of going back to full time, but have doubts about making production quotas if there are any for the insurance. Crummy ASR plus, with the new account with straight typing, the accents are taking a toll on that production. Only consolation is QA wasn't able to fill in any of the 11 blanks in my last document, and that is typical with this account. ...

workflow changes due to a large account being lost (wasn't my primary). Wondered why all of a sudden I was off my primary and getting mostly this account. Of course, they didn't know it was leaving until it disappeared. I'd probably have a heart attack if I every heard the truth. Never know what hospital is going to show up in the queve, more longer transcription jobs, ASR jobs that have to be typed because the ASR does not match up, some horrible dict ...

So if one is having difficulty meeting production and their final warning is next...will I qualify for unemployment for not meeting my company's expectations? And yes, I am an employee and just went from full-time to part-time and does that make a difference on unemployment benefits? ...

Anyone having trouble meeting line production? ...

So, being a PT'er, I have to stick around the whole shift waiting for jobs? There is no option for PT'ers as we do not accumulate paid time off. This is pretty crummy and really unfair. If I am expected to sit here for 8 hours doing nothing, I should get paid something for my time. ...

If, as many indicate here, MT and coding are not the way to go, then what would be a good option for a job in the healthcare field? ...

Within the next couple weeks, MModel will be upgrading DQS in my region, so I finally was able to buy a brand new computer with Win7, rather than refurbs with Win XP. Until they "flip the switch," I'm still using my old computer, but did get a new laptop and have been exploring Win7. I've discovered that Outlook Express is now defunct! What email programs is everyone using. I'm not crazy about Gmail or Yahoo. ...

I started with a new company and I did not have spellcheck, so I ordered it and it was quite expensive for the 2010 one. Now I found out that when I am in their program they are using their own. This has really ticked me off because I was TOLD that I needed to download a spellchecker and now I cannot send it back because I have downloaded it. Is there anyway that I can use this spellchecker instead of theirs? Any feedback will be appreciated. ;) ...

To those of you who desperately need insurance now, here is a great place to look for temporary insurance. If you eventually find out that COBRA is not going to happen or LM jerks you around so long you miss the deadline, you can still qualify for Uninsurable Risk insurance depending on the State you live in. Some of these plans may even be cheaper than COBRA, which is something you might want to look into. It is definitely worth your time to check this out instead of just wa ...

Is it just me, or does it seem like every time I have audio highlighted and the one below it checked under Tools/Options, that I have to go back in and uncheck them because some dictator is putting things out of order. I give up! I guess I'll just have to leave them unchecked. Anyone come up with an easier solution? I can't think of any. Little things are irritating me tonight. ... ...

I have been an MT for 12 years. When I first entered it was GREAT!!! My pay has decreased so much during the years and it seems like the work is less and less. I am a hard worker and I am tired of fighting to survive. I am thinking about different career options and would like to go back to school. My top two picks are physical therapy assistant or radiology technologist. Both are a 2-year degree. However, they are hard to get into, long waiting lists, ...

Was snooping through the options. Under the 2nd options on the drop-down list, the "reply option" default is "reply all." I changed mine to no, just to be on the safe side. Under "layout" is where you can set up your signature block. ...

My headset is worn out has wires showing (again). I have taped it numerous times, but this last time the sound quality is not good. I have been trying unsuccessfully to replace because I have really tiny ears and the ones advertised as "designed to fit all ears" usually end up falling out anyway and back they go for a refund. I would just replace the cord if it didn't cost as much as a whole new set. Tried the ones for children, but the sound quality is not good eno ...

I walked into my community college and asked an advisor to give me a list of choices of careers I could study locally that would be quick. My sole purpose is to re-enter the working world as fast as possible. Medical Billing / Coding was one of the options. A friend reffered this site to me in response to an MT oportunity and, as if my prayers were answered, I noticed the Coding / Billing forum which has answered many questions. However, I have more, I always do. How d ...

Hi. I am very interested in attending Andrews school for coding. The only problem is I may not be able to pay in full at the time of enrollment. Has anyone done the payment option and if so how did it work for you? Thanks. ...

Good morning or afternoon everyone As I have run through a list of companies that hire medical transcriptionists I found on the website Rat Race Rebellion (a work at home website) I was directed to this forum and I must say it is a wealth of information so I am glad I have found it ! I am in Kentucky and graduated with an Associates degree last year in medical billing and coding hoping that would give me a leg up on my resume aside from my experience just in healthcare insurance ...

I am only able to find a privately owned local phone company in this small town to offer Internet, through the phone, requires a landline (which I really did not need). Pricing: $100. For 750 min long distance, call waiting, caller ID, DSL - 3MB. VERY expensive just for internet and phone line!Insane...ALL calls ANYWHERE except within just two small communities within 5 miles of our new house are long distance! So, we will be using our cell phones for all calls. There are no ot ...

Is it mucous secretions and mucus production or mucous production? ...

What is the minimum line count requirement at MedQuist? Do you have different line count requirements for SR versus regular transcription? thank you ...

When a company states that their requirements are 1,000 lines/ 24 hour turnaround and or 5,000/ 7days, what does that mean? Forgive my ignorance but as you can see I'm new at this. ...

I posted this information below in response to someone else but wanted to bring it to the top because I, too, wonder why many PAs are so notoriously inaccurate when dictating. Hope nobody's offended by a double post. I was reviewing PA coursework at a leading university and quote the following: (My comments are in parentheses) "A course in medical terminology is recommended (not REQUIRED?) for applicants who are not health professionals or for any appl ...

I was wondering what some of these other companies require for line counts per hour. We are required to do 520 on eScription -- I never make it. Lots of ESL, 99% editing. ...

For 2 days now. Yep... out of turn around time for over 2 days. There is overtime for these accounts, but it seems NO ONE IS WORKING. These accounts have never been out of turn around time. ...

All the build up and fussing for basically no reason? ...

I've been thinking about going into coding, but what is it like physically? The immobility of transcription drives me crazy sometimes, as well as the eye strain of editing, so I am wondering if the actual physical work of coding includes the same stress. Or maybe I will just get a job on my feet, stocking in a warehouse? ...
