Most of the dictating doctors this week in my main account have

I am wondering why in the past 2 months or so the VR on my main account has become worse than when the drs were first VR. I am finding myself typing more than 50% of the supposed VR instead of just editing it and dropping my paycheck even further. This is very frustrating when you are stuck on a VR for triple the time or more of the actual audio time. I proposed this question to upper management and their response was that they have no idea why this is happening, but they are seeing this a ...

and while we were Transcend, it was so busy we worked OT to keep up. Now am lucky if I have consistent work. I am so sick of this. ...

Does not surprise me.. the Canned reports featured in EPIC I am sure will take over to completely do away transcriptionists. Clearly healthcare is okay with homogenous reports that really are not particular to the patient, just trying to stay within the slimmest margin of the law. It's like legal liability insurance...the bare minimum required. ...

Does anyone know if the big main account is being transitioned to VR, and if so, has anyone on this account been invited to move to VR? ...

I have noticed in my years as a transcriptionist the horrible sound effects I hear from some doctors. I just now transcribed a doctor who throughout the entire dictation must have coughed and loudly cleared his throat 20 times. I had another one who used to burp, chew food and yawn; dictating the entire time without pausing. AND believe it or not, I had a doctor FALL ASLEEP while dictating, no joke. I find this so rude it is not even funny. Not to mention the doctor ...

if I have to listen to this guy belch loudly into my ear one more time, I'm going to have a melt down. I really wish I could tell him he needs to see a gastroenterologist, cause he really has a problem with this!! ICK! ...

I have left notes about bad audio and hard to understand dictation and these doctors still persist in dictating on trains, cars, etc. What do you do. ...

May be an ignorant question - but what does Version 8 account mean? It is in the Transcription Doctors ad on job seeker's board and I've seen it before. I posted question on main board but no response. Does anyone know? TIA! ...

For the last week I have not had my primary account and have been getting unfamiliar accounts. I am just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? My line count is way down and I am sure there is no way I will be able to make it up. I would really like to get out of this job and find something else, but I need to be at home to stay with my child and at-home jobs are few and far between. ...

Something is seriously wrong. I am very rarely OOW on my main acct, especially on Friday nights. Had no work in there all afternoon, now 2 reports and it looks like there are some people who are getting jobs. Either work is very sparse or too many people are in my account flexing from earlier in the week. ...

Bronchoscopy procedure note - After induction of general anesthesia, the patient had an endotracheal tube placed. Normal trachea and *s/l sharp main* carina. Normal right and left bronchial tree. ...

There is a poster there who is posting blatantly wrong information about coding. Someone needs to post the correct information. I corrected one of the errors, but someone with more experience could probably do a better job of providing the facts. ...

have something called "CAC", (Computer-Assisted Coding".) Automation aside, just the fact that M*Modal is getting it's dirtly little hands into coding doesn't bode well for the field. ...

Now if we could just get rid of the one below! ...

And found I still need my hip boots on for all the cr** that's on here. Never seen a more depressing, hateful, self pitying bunch of people in my life. ...

with a link to the Dept of Labor. I encourage all of you to go check it out and write to them if you feel moved to do so. Maybe if they get enough inquiries about this company, someone will take a look at them. All I want to know, bottom line, is if they can legally do this, meaning cutting our line rate in half and our produced lines in half and then further reduction for what they deem as quality issues (which is very subjective in the best case scenario). It would be n ...

On the main board there is a message titled "Gotta Vent" and the following replies regarding coding have made me sick to my stomach, especially because a couple people stated seeing their coding departments wiped out by the EMR systems. Could someone shed some light on this? I am in a coding class now and I am not feeling so hot....but be honest. Thank you! ...

We recently had a new account start and the doctors often do not dictate all the main headings of the template that loads. The hospital keeps changing their mind as to keep it unused main heading in versus take it out if not dictated. Typically, I have always removed it if it was not dictated. But what do most of you do? Thanks for sharing your experience. ...

Why have all the messages on the Main Board been "deleted by author"?? ...

I recognize the name used - it is by someone in upper management. At least she is using her real name - maybe she had second thoughts of using Hawkeye - LOL. ...

What is going on with those main terms? My coding textbook keeps wanting me to identify the main term, but I can't figure out which one it is. If you can find something under three different words in the Alphabetic Index, how do you know which is the main term? The one I choose is never the one the book says is right! This is frustrating. Does this mean I am not cut out to be a coder? ...

and of course can't get into mail. Not sure what is going on now! ...

This is quite the eye opener and may explain why a lot of us are running out of work. Part of the problem is the complete mismanagement by TSMs and COMs, but the overall issue may be that EPIC is growing by leaps and bounds. It does not bode well for us MLSs. ...

I read with interest the article contained in the post on the main board because it occurred to me that this is the only industry I know where as an employee, for most companies today, Nuance not excepted, you accept a job and then you, the employee, provide your own equipment, you pay the expense to have your computer repaired and when it is down you are not paid for the downtime, you pay your ISP internet charges (which can be costly if you are running extra turbo charged service to meet minim ...

Most of the dictating doctors this week in my main account have - hoarseness.

We must have the same acct. - Shipwrecked

dittto! - poordoc
