Sending back equipment???

Does anyone know of a legal recourse for work injuries caused by company equipment? A market leader, at-the-time generous transcription company sent me an old fashioned monitor, which after years of looking at it caused ocular saccades (lateral jitter of eyes). Also, they downgraded to cheap earphones with a solenoid in them that thumped, decreasing hearing permanently, evidently, in the solenoid fitted side of the headset. I think the saccades are diminished to absent now ...

Hi, Anyone else recently quit this ridiculous farce of a company called Nuisance... I mean Nuance, and they never mentioned one word about having you ship back the foot pedal? Do they eventually send out a notice to ship it back or you won't get your last paycheck? Just curious... No big loss, my paycheck that is, as I was earning less than minimum wage. Got a pacycheck for 80 hours that was less than $200 a week. Seems they have it set up to purposely m ...

I left a few months ago and was never contacted about returning their equipment. Maybe they don't want it back if they aren't supplying equipment for employees anymore. Has anyone left recently and been sent the packaging to return their PC? I sure don't want to have to pay taxes at the end of the year on this "income." ...

I had a good account, but the account specifics were ridiculous. The dictators were horrible and picky. And Precyse catered to them. I've never seen a health system so babied! And the way the system was set up it made it impossble to go and make corrections on your own. Once you finished it it was gone to the client...the picky client...Then Precyse has this weird way of computing your hours worked....almost like they penalized you for staying in the repor ...

as well? Last time I quit they only wanted the tower back. Preparing to leave very, very soon but haven't given notice yet so thought I would ask you guys. ...

Is this something new? ...

Just curious: Any MDI MTs not feeling like jumping through the hoops, printing out the paperwork for Transcend on THEIR deadline even though we don't become official employees until Feb 1? Anybody going to just quit and save yourself the hassle? Doesn't seem quite fair to want MDI MTs to just say "how high" when they say "jump" does it? I'm just put out at how we've been treated. Yeah, it's business, and that usually means it is okay t ...

I'm just sayin....as a radiology MT in this company for 14 years...we have always sent radiology reports straight through to the docs to review and sign (because of turnaround time)....never knew they did QA until I got new accounts 2 years ago....and have had some pretty bad foreigners. I believe it is docs job to go over his reports anyway...he is legally responsible.. ...

Just wondering about the sending of blanks. I had a few blanks due to inaudible dictation. I know QA wouldn't be able to get it either, but when I uploaded the job the QA box was checked and I tried to uncheck it and it wouldn't let me. So, how do you just send it straight to the client and not to QA? ...

Are they kidding? Who is going to be sending ANYTHING to QA and take a chance of having their pay cut? Especially if it's the beginning of the work week! Yes, the clients will be getting blanks and I know they will be complaining. The Q keeps sending us e-mails telling us to cut down on QA submissions. Are they kidding? No amount of "tips" will help if the dictator mumbles, sneezes, is ESL, etc. Don't they think we know all the "tricks" already? Besides that, we can't ...

I feel that I flag a lot and send to QA a lot. I've been at this for about a year, do acute care, lots of ESL etc so I think it's a reasonably difficult account; but I ask myself do really experienced MTs, e.g. those at this for 5 years or 10 years or more, send so many jobs over to QA? I mean, do you get to the point where you can pretty much understand everything these guys are saying, even when they're chewing, slurring, belching etc.? I would love to make it ...

My husband is in the stock market and has been checking up and reading things about MedQuist. MedQuist is now in a transition of sending more to India than ever before. According to the CEO and COO, they are looking to increase their volume of 15% of MQ total work to 45% in the next 6 months. The purchase of Spheris was a smokescreen. The contract with Spheris was that they could come in and set up shop with their own people and move the MQ folks out. Which is ...

Has anyone out there gotten a 1099 from TTD? I assume not, but I only saw one post below with 1 response. Has anyone reported her to the IRS criminal division yet? This is just plain sickening. ...

Idea to contact CNN and see if we could get the attention of Dr Sanjay Gupta to do an investigative piece on offshoring. After all, this is his country, and it might interest him for many reasons. We'll see if we can get some attention, and maybe you guys can also send in requests at this link. http://www.cnn.com/feedback/show/?s=storyidea Found this on a website. ...

Okay. Finished report that original MT was in India. Went to 2 different QA editors, nothing corrected. Came to me. I made over 50 corrections. If this is any indication of their work, our jobs are safe. Ridiculous and diiscouraging at the same time. ...

Hello, I would like to transcribe from home again. However, I HAVE to get up and walk for a few minutes at least once an hour. You see, I had to have 2 back surgeries in the last 18 months. I've been a transcriptionist for many years and this is my profession. Does anyone have a suggestion what to tell these companies that will hire you to work from home when you have to get up so much? The last company I tried had a "pop-up" box that appeared on my screen if you were up longer than 10 min ...

gift cards. It's nice to see that people who have been fired or quit received them, but some of us who slave day after day for you were forgotten. Great quality control! ...

I want to send questions to TM although the email stated to send them to ccm. I have tons of questions. this is not fair at all. we cannot help poor audio, hemming and hawing by the dictator, dictators who cannot dictate......who the heck is running this show, lucy and ethel??? bunch of creeps. ...

Okay, I got a ding today from my extremely sweet and helpful QATL. It seems I did not send as a cc a requesting physician dictated. I looked at the report and I did enter the requesting physician in the ADT and the body of the report. I thought if they did not specifically request a cc be sent, then you did not. Am I wrong? Old dog needs help. Also, I thought if the Req Physician was in the ADT it automatically received a carbon copy.. Hmmm.. ...

Why should we be docked for sending work to QA especially when there is an issue with poor audio quality, having a job that is incomplete or simply not being able to find the correct address even after we have spent time doing the propper research. This is as ludicrous as it would be if the phone company decided to charge us extra to call 911. ...

Maybe I haven't done a thorough search. I see a lot of posts about offshoring to India. Not all of the work goes there. AFAIK, the Philippines is quite a hot spot. India, Philippines--what the heck. How's that global economy working for ya? ...

Hi, Can anyone tell me how to send completed typed files via a FTP site? I was asked to test for a company through an FTP site that they sent me the link to so I could transcribe 2 files. They said I could send the completed test back via the FTP site but I don't know what to do. I did look it up on Google but am still lost! ...

Does anyone send Christmas cards to their accounts? I work as an IC for an MTSO and this is the second year now that I have received a fruit basket from one of my long-term accounts. I get nothing from my MTSO, however. Last year I sent them a thank you card and maybe a Christmas card as well, but I can't remember. Anyways, I was thinking of sending them a X-mas card with a thank you note in it for the fruit basket. Thoughts? Anybody else get x-mas gifts ...

There is one thing that people should know when it comes to sending work offshore, be it India or Pakistan or any other country. The patient’s information is strictly protected. It is true that the SSN number and the MRN number is being given away by the doctors while dictating the demographics, but at the same time a person transcribing those reports does a minimum of 20-25 reports a day, do you think he or she will even remember at the end of the day what number belonged to w ...

It would be very helpful if you would state whether or not OT is approved. Never sure if you're referring to part-timers & people who need to make up hours versus allowing us to hop on for OT. ...

Yes. The Privacy Rules allow hospitals to disclose patients' names and other directory information to anyone asking for the patient by name or to the clergy. Patients do not need to sign up to be included in the directory, but must be allowed to "opt out" and choose not to be listed. For those of you who have been saying that sending transcription overseas is illegal or a HIPAA violation, this information was taken from the HIPAA Q & A board on ...

DEP light is green. Hope it is just me and not the whole system again. ...

So sick of these repeat bad dictators..If we keep sending them through QA then they never realize what a pain in the tail they are..I honestly think a lot, not all, if they realized how bad they sound would straighten up..Especially the English speaking "slurrers".. Im sending them the blanks, Guarantee no one ever say he doc, can you just slow down to somewhere near the speed of light for a change then your reports would come back more accurate and in a timely manner instead of them being ...
