M Modal, testing required? sm

I am about to test for this company. Are there any pointers or tips that I should be aware of prior to testing? If so, what are they. What are they looking for when it comes to the transcription portion of the test? Any answers would greatly be appreciated. Thanks! ...

I have taken their test twice now and scored 94/82 first time and 94/72 second time. I have been transcribing for over 15 years and worked for Medquist years ago. I cannot speak to a person or even e-mail, they just say try again in 90 days. I am not going to try again and am very frustrated. I know I did well on the testing and made sure the second time to pay attention to everything. Stumped!! ...

Hello. I have received a call from M-Modal for testing. I am wondering is the pay really that low there? I hear it's 4 cpl speech, 8 cpl straight with some bonuses I am assuming., and probably mainly speech like maybe 90? Does that not make the pay pretty close to minimum wage? Are there many of you that find you can make significantly more than minimum working there? I am assuming part-time does not have benefits. Thank you for the information. ...

Anyone willing to tell if it is multiple dictations, how many, etc. Were you able to get foot pedal to work with it? any info helpful. ...

I thought they were 2 different services. Everyone is buying out everyone, so who knows. All the small companies have been merged I guess. I thought Nuance was out of New York and were the primary with VR. Maybe one has to keep up with the changes and be a member and pay the dues and go to the meetings with AAMT and be a CMT to keep up with the changes, even though you still get 4 cents. ...

So, if one is looking for a different MTSO employer, what's the competition like? Is CMT pretty much a given now? I mean, do I have to find the funds to pay for that and get the title just to be part of the competition? NEED ADVISE PLEASE ...

Very, very difficulty to listen to her prattle on about the importance of audits and quality when she could not begin to do what I do. I can take it from the corporate suits who run this company because after all, they are NOT in the business of transcription, they are in the business of technology and we MTs are only in their ways and a very hard to swallow means to an end or at least to India..but I would hope that the person who DIRECTLY supervises me and MY work should know how to perf ...

I need to buy a medical spell checker and the Quick Look Drug Book. I'm planning to buy them both from Stedman's. Does anyone know of a better place to buy the items. Also, should I get the CD Rom, or am I okay with the downloads? Thanks for any help. ...

Do I have to be certified to do medical transcription? Do companies hire without it? ...

I've started trying to understand it. I see lots of software programs out there that supposedly handle this. But if there are multiple programs, how does all the various work put into these programs end up in ONE (!?) place where a persons medical record can be accessed by any medical professional? Or is my understanding already flawed? Will those MDs, or whoever, that choose to continue the narrative dictation (vs point and click or fill in the blanks) can they con ...

I am furious. Now, we are required to take classes on our own time without being reimbursed. What nerve. ...

Have been on E5 for a year and unable maintain 186 lph. This is the first time in my 20+ years as an MT that it has been so hard to reach the required lines. Today I forced myself to sit in the chair and moved only to go to the bathroom a couple times, and a 1-minute stretch every hour (timed). Still only managed about 170 lph. The audio is pretty bad on my accounts, but still never had a problem with lines with poor audio at prior jobs. I do tend to double-listen now when there is a hitch in th ...

Just curious....What are you required LPH for your company in order to maintain benefits? Full time only please. Thanks. ...

I work for the NorthEast section of Medquist and my supervisor wanted to verify all of our hours before we started getting locked-out of working hours other than our scheduled hours. When I emailed my hours to my supervisor, I stated that I wanted to drop my 3 hours I had previously been scheduled on Sunday night since I was having a hard time keeping those hours. Mind you, I already work 9:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Monday through Friday and 8:30 to 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday. She then wr ...

For all that do not want to do the extra research to fill in the blanks cuz it takes too much time, too much effort, losing money trying to get it all done to help your qa submission rate I'd like to welcome you to what we as QA/MME have been doing for 3 cpl ....all of that research and more. Now maybe some MTs (not all) will stop throwing QA under the bus and realize what we've had to do all this time for 3 cpl. Thank you and have a nice day. ...

I would like to know if there are any companies out there that do not require a line count per day or week. I have been away from transcription for a long time, almost five years, and I don't know if I could handle having to worry about that. I looked in the Archives, but the info in there is too overwhelming and confusing. Any suggestions? Thank you. ...

HI all, I could've sworn I read this somewhere that medical transcriptionists - even the REMOTE ones WORKING AT HOME ! - are REQUIRED by some employers to get annual flu shots. Is this true?? Does anyone have any experience with this? I found it quite odd, to say the least. Also, does anyone know if this is true of med transcriptionists that work IN A HOSPITAL - this I know, that some hospitals these days are requiring vaccinations of all workers. Ready and waiting to read your input :&nb ...

Does anyone else here find it "interesting" that a company would require an Associates' or higher degree for their medical transcriptionists? ...

I have asked my TL 3 times. What are the required lines per pay period? Combo of ST and VR? Thank you. ...

I've been MIA for 2 weeks but may have to return to work tomorrow....sigh. I was checking emails and saw the line requirement. ...

How much typing is required for most coding jobs? I'm an MT with tendinitis and am wondering if I should try coding or if that would also be too hard on my hands. I would think it would be a lot less keystrokes. Thanks for your advice. ...

specs for most companies that require you to have your own computer. Got laid off from MM, who provided computers (the ONLY good thing about them!)....but now as I am looking I am finding most places don't do this. Can you use a laptop if you have the required specs? My laptop has 4GB "sdram" and 500 GB hard drive. It has windows 8. I guess I'd have to buy an expander. Will these specs be okay? Thanks in advance! ...

the requirement, but work has dried up over the past 1-2 months. Is anyone else experiencing this? They also don't take into consideration the assigned required email and STAT coverage we have to do, which is in addition to our required production. Are other QCE's finding it hard to meet production? How do you handle it when there is not enough work? ...

has crashed my personal laptop 3 times, at a cost of $220 to me so far for repair, and makes it so slow that I cannot use it. I also cannot use it for anything personal AT ALL. I worked full-time with no problem, including the day of their download, until this antivirus was loaded. I am able to work with this at a slower pace so far but am unable to otherwise use a very expensive laptop that I purchased myself. Opinion? We are told to use it or quit. ...

Is direct deposit required, or are paper checks an option to get paid? ...

I was recently hired as an IC by a small MTSO. I was told the day I was hired that I would be given work in the morning and it would be my job to transcribe it and print it out for the courier to pick it up the following day at 9:00 a.m. After papers were signed, equipment and supplies were purchased, and I was all set to go, I was informed by the owner that she wanted all of my work emailed to her as an attachment absolutely "NO LATER THAN 5:00 p.m." I tried this fo ...
