Posted: Feb 10, 2013

Whole country is offering poverty wages. Not just here.

Not all of the United States. MM wants us - to think it is the whole country.

It is the MT profession MM has destroyed. All the other employees at MM are doing great and getting raises, good benefits and bonuses.

Trust me, Mmodal benefits are CHEAP and affordable - compared to what is out there. Wages

[ In Reply To ..]
unfortunately are what they are all over.

Well this person obviously does'nt work for MM - if she did she would know

Benefits are pretty darn good, only
$36 a pay check for me.

Benefits - Nature

Maybe she is part time. I work part time, and I do not get benefits. I did not know befefits were that afordable.

Benefits are really pretty reasonable. - MSmt

Dental insurance cost per payperiod was cut in half and the health insurance came down a good bit because I had to take my husband off for a couple of years, then they made it more affordable last year with great copays. The benefits is the only thing that keeps me here.

Are you kidding? - anony

Don't know what coverage you have but I do NOT get it that cheap. I have dental, vision and health which is WELL over $36/check. If I ever can get enough money saved (HA! HA!), I am going to get married and insurance will be cheaper on his plan.

I just ran the numbers. Based on my income, age and marital status, I not only qualify for food stamps, but I also qualify for cheaper health insurance under Obamacare. Even owning my home (still have a mortgage) and having a little bit of money in the bank, I qualify for food stamps. I did not qualify in June, but my income has dropped since then because of there being little to no work. The health insurance (bronze plan) for which I qualify will cost me $19 per month based ...

Definitely agree wtih poster on job board about no VBC, offering 7 cpl without spaces is absurd. I love op reports and am local to the job posted but once I saw it ws 7 cpl VBC I was definitely not interested. That would be equal to maybe 5.25 cpl with spaces, take out taxes and you are down to about 3.5 maybe, what else can they take? ...

No jobs out here and what does one do as they are offering us 3 cpl but then you know they want the weekend coverage and the 2nd shift because those are the worst. Oh, but you can get a 1/2 a penny more? What is a half of a penny? Maybe in another country, but surely not here where it is hard to live on minimum wage. Then supply your own equipment. Augh. Plus look at their test? I'd be a nurse then...and be more respected and can save a life. ...

As per the post below, 7 and 3 pennies per line. Seriously, when will the madness end?! They have got to stop treating us like "typists." Actually, even a typist would make more than that. You'd be making like 7 bucks an hour!! Oh I am just hopping mad right now. This company is just appalling. Glad I am planning my escape. ...

it says if we qualify we will have three months of training, then spend three months in their apprentice program, and then will be given positions with them as coders. We then have to work for them for 2 years or pay back for the program. It doesn't talk about compensation or any certification. Do you think this is a good idea? ...

I truly hope that this company receives ZERO response to their RIDICULOUS job offer. For the work I've done this morning in approximately 2 hours, working for them I would have made $12.50. That would have garnered me MUCH less than minimum wage instead of the just under $50 I thankfully made NOT working for MedINK. UGH! I feel better now having vented LOL! ...

Is that typical for when a company is sold? I had not heard of it before. When does Probity plan to go to speech recognition? I see they have an ad on another site. Do new employees applying at Probity get the subsidy as well? I wonder if it is worthwhile to apply and work for them for the life of the subsidy (6 months) and then quit. Anyone from Probity have any insight on this? ...

When did it start being okay for companies to accept and accomodate docs who put out garbage and then require the world of us MT's? I have worked in the medical setting in various capacities, so I know how docs are and I am used to it. However, when it comes to something as serious as transcribing thier reports and getting it right you would think they would do there best to at least try to speak soem what clearly.....the wost part is that these are not even ESL's that I sp ...

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 ...

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' ...
