MModal layoff - Mimi


Posted: Aug 18, 2013

I was just terminated on August 15, 2013 and I am so glad I found this website.  I am grateful there is somewhere to vent how angry and frustrating the handling of this was done.  In the beginning I thought where do I turn now.  I just started dismanteling all of the equipment, when I really just wanted to throw it out the window.  Friday, I applied for unemployment and will try looking for a new job.  I do feeling like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders because the way I was being treated since June when I got a new boss was so unfair.  She was the worst with all of her emails and how we s hould respond to her emails and if they were not done in the manner she wanted, they would not be accepted.  I can honestly say in the 15 years I was at MModal she was the worst boss I ever had to deal with.

Sorry you were treated badly and hope you find something better! - Goodluck

Wicked Boss from the North - Mimi

Yes I was from the North Region. Got let go on 08/15. The old TSM was great, offered to help anyway she could. This was one was an absolute witch from day one until the last day.

Mimi, I wish you the best and it will all - curious one

work out. At least you don't have to get any more of those hateful e-mails from the wicked witch. I dread logging on to MModal's e-mail everyday because it is always something negative.

Hi Mimi - ChrissyT

I was laid off from MModal the same day you were. I was in the supermarket shopping with my mom and my boss called me on the phone and dropped the bomb. I'm really sorry for what you're going through. I've applied for unemployment as well and will return to school to become a teacher.

Oh No ....... BIG TSM Layoff .....
Oct 21, 2014

Just got the call.  My TSM of many years is gone as of the 2nd week in November.  Here is what I know from a very long conversation.  Almost HALF of the western region's TSMs got the call this week ... if you are in the western region you may want to find out if your TSM is one of them.  If you are in the eastern region, you may have already lost a few but there are more layoffs coming.  When all the layoffs are done, there will only be about half a dozen managers ...


Layoff And Unemployment
Apr 04, 2013

beyond smarmy, they terminated the part time MTs because when they apply for unemployment (and they are without question able to get it because their jobs were eliminated) they will find the govt will document the last five quarters of their employment and base their rate of pay on a percentage of that.  This will probably reflect a very low rate of unemployment insurance compensation that no one can live on, and thus not apply for unemployment.  BUT if enough people do get unemploymen ...


Optiscript Layoff Due To Nuance
Aug 03, 2014

taking biggest account.  Two weeks ago, Opti lost their last Nuance-generated account back to Nuance, which was their biggest, and then let some MTs go due to lack of work, even if they weren't on the account lost (which is just a weed out process to keep only their best or those with CMT-which is not fair if you held up your end of the bragain from the beginning). This brings Opti down to skeleton accounts, (4 or 5) which usually don't have any work. TTS is the last to contrac ...


Keystrokers, Regarding Earlier Layoff Post
Jun 12, 2014

I do not know what I can mention here, but was the HR person’s first name who was let go start with a K?  I ask because I replied to their job posting that stated they were rolling back the clock and needed to hire 40 MTs.  I sent in my resume in response to the pediatrics account because a while back, I was an MT at a children’s hospital in a very large city.  I stated I knew my skills were old but that I was submitting my resume anyway for their consideration.  ...

and noticing that it is really not doing a good job lately.  I've not usually had problems with it when it comes to regular English-speaking doctors, but this week it has been a mess.  It is either not putting in entire sentences or putting in off the wall stuff that sounds nothing like what is being said.  I've come to expect that with ESL, but certainly not with English as native language.  Weird.  Must be taking some time off for MT week. ...

MModal asks for your SS# on the application process of applying for jobs there!!! Thanks to some of you, I ran ran ran from this place.  When I inquired about how uncomfortable I was with sharing my SS#...I was told to just use any number.  WHAT?!!? Then why have it there!!! Who in their right mind would give their SS# to a company that hasn't even hired them yet.  I agree with the rest of you. RUN SALLY RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN ...


MModal, WHY????
May 24, 2012

Why is MModal posting job openings, when so many of use are running out of work or worse falling into the pool--what with the pay cuts, VR being paid half even though it takes nearly as long to edit most reports, and the fact that I only get my "primary" accounts about 30% of the time and the rest of the time I am typing from the pool so that nearly every report that comes up is a new facility or dictator, I have gone from making $16 an hour to minimum wage. I cannot afford this. Why can' ...

I see so many complaints about MModal. Does anyone actually like them? I'm in the hiring process and they are calling with an offer. I would like to try it out. I work in-house now, but eventually my position will be eliminated due to VR. I do not make that great of pay, and have lots of down time, but still have to sit in the office all day. I know that all companies have their ups and downs. My hospital being Union makes doing anything impossible and makes it easier to keep the "bad ...


What Has Mmodal Done To Me?
Apr 12, 2013

Well, I suppose any transciption job would do the same.  Before this profression, I was a good little girl who would never swear or cuss and even chastised others for doing so, but since becoming an MT (especially with MModal), with all these horrendous dictators and this buggy platform, if you listen from outside my office, you'd think someone locked a surly sailor with Tourettes in with me.  I've called dictators names that would make a construction worker blush.  I al ...

Ex-MModal

Left MModal 18 mos. ago and have been on here encouraging everybody that there is life after MQ/MM.  This week my wonderful clinic goes live with EMR.  The trainer won't even recognize transcription.  He is just adamant that the docs will enter everything themselves and when they don't, he is pushing Dragon Medical.  So I guess I was wrong.  I really thought I found a way out, but apparently not.  It was a great year and a half though.  ...


WOW MModal Is The New UPS
Oct 16, 2013

There is one area we do plan to adjust for 2014 which we expect will impact a very small percentage of our employees. If your spouse or domestic partner works and is eligible to receive health benefits in another qualified plan in 2014, you will be subject to a $100 per month surcharge if you elect to include them in the M*Modal healthcare plan.  Keep in mind that this cost applies only to working spouses and domestic partners, not to children or other dependents ...

I am so sick of Mmodal.  I resigned recently and I keep getting letters to return things that I have never ever owned or received or stuff that I had sent back to them years ago.  The DEPOT apparently is as ignorant as the rest of them. SO glad I found  real job that pays, respects and appreciates their employees.  I have only one PC to return and they sent me five boxes and a bunch of labels and stating that I have in my possession 7 different things.... OMG.. what a joke!!! ...

For All Of You Who Want To Sue Mmodal
Apr 06, 2014

can you specify exactly what laws they have broken?  Yes, we are all unhappy here, but I cannot see that they have done anything they cannot do legally. The last judgment against them was for witholding pay.  I think they are too smart to break laws again. What do you expect to gain anyway by suing a company that has filed bankruptcy, which is always a very smart business move to make if you can get away with it. ...

It took a stupid pill.  It skips at least a fourth of the words, uses commas and back slashes like most people use salt and pepper of course skipping the words where it puts the commas in, puts in stuff that is not even close to what is dictated.  These companies pay for their stuff to be run through this ridiculous program.  Why are the bosses allowing this low quality to come through unless they own part of mmodal.  Does not make sense.   ...
