Oh great. TSM moved so many people to 1 day on my shift, I was told to change! - ridiculous


Posted: Sep 20, 2013

She demanded schedule changes of all M-F MTs because of end-of-the-week/weekend TAT problems. I wasn't concerned because my entire schedule is for those troublesome days. Now I get an email that she moved too many people to my shift, and she wants me to change!!????? It is so frustrating working here on so many levels. I can't wait until I finish school and will be out of here!

Not surprised - Sat a.m., scrounging for work! - Trampled underfoot

I'm jumping all over the place with reports from here and there. Maybe I should volunteer to take off Saturdays, since now there's low work during my scheduled hours!

ask for transfer - North sinking in work..nm

I Am Very Disheartened...my TSM Just Told Me She Was A Victim Of The Great TSM Elimination
Oct 24, 2014

She had called and left a message for me the previous day, but I was unable to take the call.  I noticed a new name on my time clock, so I emailed my TSM and asked if I had been put up for adoption or something. She called me back last night and told me that she was being, in effect, laid off.  She said it had nothing to do with job performance....it was just to affect the bottom line.  I am just sick to my stomach by this.  I have always considered myself very lucky he ...


Just Great - Starting My Shift With Next To No Work!
Jun 16, 2014

I'm fed up with these emails about how there's so much work and with 4-5 accounts my work pool has virtually nothing.  Forget my primary account!  One or two reports per day come through anymore.  Guess it's all gone to India.  Time to find something else to do for minimum wage. ...


Great! MM Wants To Change How We Get Paid.
Mar 23, 2013

“Line count” as a metric has remained popular because consumers are familiar with it and also because we (MTSOs – Medical Transcription Service Organizations) are able to use it to our advantage. As the cost of labor has risen over the past decades, we’ve added technology to reduce the amount of labor needed, and thus we’ve been able to keep the price (per line) low. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!  COST OF LABOR HAS RISEN??  IT REALLY MEANS THE COST OF CORPORATE� ...


Hey People, Great Job Today 'disliking'
Jan 19, 2015

'jobs' on the board these past few days who deserve same. We 'hear' you, and we believe you! Thanks for sparing the unsuspecting the hassle and horror of some of these places... Keep up the good work. It's all we can do to help ourselves and each other until something happens, and we all receive once again the respect, dignity and salaries we deserve. IMO, I would say if you see 3 or more 'dislikes' on a job posted on Seeker's, RFYL! Sincerely, ...


Shift Change-again
Jun 18, 2013

Recent Change To M-Modal, Anyone Have Great Success With This VR System? I Think It Stinks.

I have been using this system for a couple of months now and was hoping it was going to get better, but it really has not.   Is there anyone who is have great success on this system?  Do you work on another VR system that you really like and can make $20/hr or more on? I am just wondering if it is M-Modal or the way ours is set up, or what.   By the time I pay for my insurance, computer costs, software, taxes, etc.  , there is not a lot of m ...


Advice On Shift Change
Apr 06, 2011

I have been asked to consider a shift change, from daytime to 2nd shift where they need me more.  I am wondering if any of you have done this kind of shift change and what the pros and cons were as far as work load, work in general and also how did it change your family life, good or bad?  How long did it take you to get used to the change, etc.  Did you find you didn't like it and went day to day shift or were not allowed to go back to day shift, etc.  Any and all infor ...

Great Line Counts Require Great Dictators.
Feb 11, 2015

I'm always over 200 until I get Mr. Mumblemouth who knows he is not forming actual words when he hums through the PE, as my counts plummet to as loiw as 75 LPH.   Then I get a long report from an excellent fast-talking dictator and my LPH jumps to 340.   Question:  Why is it that the MTSO does not comprehend the fact that our production depends on the capability of the provider to dictate correctly?   The horrid dictators are never told they are doing anything wrong as ...

Who Moved My Cheese?-
Apr 22, 2011

I have been reading the posts of many of the unhappy MTs on this board for some time now. Seems like for those of you are happy in your present situation, so many others are just about at their "wits" in theirs. It is very sad I think to see an industry that seemed so lucrative, where you earned a decent wage for what you did, you were happy with what you did and you "loved" what you were doing. It has been rather a tough year for me. I have been out of work over a year now and there are so ma ...
