It makes me feel so good to know that our - jobs are going to such
Posted: Sep 08, 2013
qualified people. QA'd a report today where the India MT typed "3 quarts of Neo-Synephrine nasal spray were inserted into the right nostril." Actually doc said "three squirts". Do they even read this stuff for context? I am just imagining that poor patient drowning in Neo-Synephrine......
we would have caught this - anon

An experienced American based MT would have realized this was an error if it came across ASR as quarts instead of squirts. But they obviously do not care over there; even to flag if it is sounded a bit off.
You nailed it anon - sm

It is painfully obvious that anything ASR types is right to them..Hey, when they screw everything up, when they call us back to work and save them, at least we can try and gouge them for money...Im job hunting, it will require me to sell my house and move to a more populated area, but that's OK, I'm done with this garbage..Time for a major life change

Fiesa Makes Me Paranoid, For A Good Reason. Oct 10, 2013There is a doctor who in almost every report has at least one discrepancy and made a really glaring one and I carefully flagged it with my concern (obviously wrong medication). The QC came back with a "major error" failure to flag. Well I knew without a doubt I had flagged it and I was later proved correct by my supervisor. Why would she do that? Did she think I wouldn't notice? Then I saw that it was the same QC that oftentimes p ...

Coding :: Do You Feel The Compensation Is Good? Jan 08, 2013I have had my own medical transcription business for almost 30 years. Recently, my largest client informed me they are going to start using a template that docs will fill out when they see patients. I am losing a lot of income and really need to replace it. My friend told me that coding is a good thing to get into now. I don't want to spend the time and/or money learning that if the pay is not good and the jobs aren't plentiful. I have tons of medical transcription experience ...

What To Do When Dr. Makes You Gag May 07, 2011Everytime I do this doctor's transcription (ironically he is a pulmonologist) he snorts phlegm in the back of his nose right into the microphone and will even cough from it sometimes because he does it so hard. Tonight during an 11 min. dictation by him, halfway through I had to get up and run to the bathroom because I was gagging. He did it 5 times in the first 5 min. of the job. I once reported a doc who uses voice recognition and apparently did her dictation on her lunch break WHIL ...
Makes You Wonder Apr 15, 2013I'm sure that the bigwigs at MM are very aware of the many disgruntled and downright angy posts on this board in the past week or two. It's sad that no one in the head office has addressed our concerns, either with a company-wide email or even a post on this site. It confirms that we are truly at the bottom of the totem pole and that they just want results, not happy employees. ...

Makes Me Sick Dec 15, 2009I am currently awaiting a call from my boss about going salary for my position as an MT, and I have no patience , so just for fun I googled "how much salary does a medical transciptionist get paid" and I clicked on this link to one of those question/answer sites where someone asked about the average transcriptionist's salary, and what I read made me sick.

Really Makes You Not Want To Work! Sep 27, 2013I can't take much more! I didn't get a single bad report on FIESA for 2 weeks. Then they did that evaluation and wanted me to change my shift, being really nice to me. I changed my shift completely this past week. This week I get hit with 7 reports with numerous critical/major errors that I really do not remember doing at all. Then I get nasty emails because I had been an hour short last week and the importance of working all my hours during my s ...
