MY HEAD IS SPINNING - Nature

Posted: Jan 08, 2015

Just did the FFT Editor 7.5 and 7.6. How in the world are we suppose to get all this in our brains and keep our line count at least 150 LPH? It always scares me when they come up with these new edits.

7.5 and 7.6 no big deal - clyde

The tutorials for these "upgrades" are ridiculous and time consuming and make it seem as though it's this complicated process. In reality, there isn't much of a difference than before. The spellcheck box looks different, but I don't skip around and do the headings first, followed by the terminology, etc., the way the tutorial shows.

In reality, nothing that needed to be fixed was fixed, and the things they changed didn't need to be changed. The age thing I've found on some accounts doesn't even work (and beware that the age of the patient is the age on the date of dictation, so if the report is old the patient may have had a birthday since the time of the encounter so he/she is a year younger than than the ADT shows).

Busywork...and a way for the computer guys in India to justify their paychecks.

pretty sure we don't get the upgrades until after you all have been working on it for quite sometime. Anyhow, I love Fluency. The quality of the VR leaves a lot to be desired, but outside of that its the best MT platform I've ever worked on. It was love at first site when I started working on Fluency. If the VR was better, I would be in heaven. Best platform ever, but MModal MTs may not realize it since they've been working on it for years.

Fluency is a good platform, although I prefer earlier versions. - nm

I saw a falling star and made a wish, One Basic Client Profile for all accounts. Please no more, 1 space after period versus 2 spaces after periods, long form dates versus short form dates, patient names versus no patient names, mixed case versus all caps in review of systems and physical exam, yes to cc/no to cc-change to mL, number lists versus no number lists, yes to QC/QA note versus no to QC/QA note, and the list goes on and on and on....

I read EVERYDAY about ppl on this board having no jobs at the Q, not being able to contact their CCM or RTL to get work.

WOW! I took the accounts, I mean, I've been working steady for about 3 - 4 months, FT hours, nary a NJ ...

I'm an MME, and in editing reports these past few weeks I'm noticing a huge number of gender mix ups in the reports I'm seeing. In some reports, it almost seems to toggle back and forth from he/she/him/her, etc with absolutely no consistency. It seems to be an ASR issue. I'm not sure why it's happening but what I AM noticing is that a lot of MTs aren't catching it. If I am the MME for your report, I will always correct them while I'm fil ...

I found an ad this morning that I was so excited about, part-time MT in 2 specialties that I love, started my email to the company when I went back to look at the job ad and it states UP TO 0.7 per line. Immediately I deleted the email, shook my head and went on looking. What amazes me even more is that these people/companies who offer these horrible wages generally act like they are doing you a favor!! Sad, so very sad .... ...

So much going on! Got an e-mail Friday that all jobs, regardless of how many blanks it has in is, is going directly to the customer. Got another e-mail about Benchmark, and I have no clue what that is all about. Not certified, don't want to be certified, so if it has anything to do with that - and we HAVE to from what I am gathering. Then they train me for full DQS accounts, and there is never any work on those accounts. My primary was supposed to go SR in Janu ...

There is good reason that these ladies sound a little negative. It is not about you, your initiative, or your dedictation. They do know what they are talking about, but they did not even begin to explain to you why, probably not enough room or time! This industry has changed drastically. You can not believe the ads you read about being an MT, great money, work your own hours, train in 2-4 months, blah, blah, blah. None of that is true. This has become a low in ...

I am typing merrily along, enjoying my psych account, and when I get to the plan, the dictator states for the last entry, "I informed the patient that this practice is closing and will provide her with a list of referrals." The next four dictations had the same final entry. Egad. Thanks for letting us, the mere typists, know. ...

I keep getting dinged for comma usage, and I'm not one to overuse them, though I fully support the use of an Oxford comma. I am old school, and I've been taught the following about commas 1) They go before a conjunction when what could be complete sentence follows. 2) They do not go before or after (unless there is a strange circumstance, i.e, "indeed" or some such wording thrown in) a conjunction w/o a complete sentence following it. My hospitals are "modified ver ...

I failed a quality audit. I have 3-4 weeks to confess my sins, repent and start bleating their praises. Interestingly, I just got a letter from my MModal life insurance that says it was canceled and is addressed "Dear terminated employee." A prophecy of things to come? Still, I find it oddly depressing. How does MModal manage to birng me down after so long? You would think I would be totally immune to it by now. I know all the logical defenses: ...
