So glad I don't work for MQ anymore

I did my last ASR for MModal last Friday and started my new job today. My heart goes out to all of you trying to keep your heads above water with Mmodal. I've never seen such a mess of a company as this one is and from the posts on here, it just keeps getting worse. With the weight of ASR, crappy pay scale, NJA, dozen of accounts, working holidays and weekends off my shoulders, my stress level is almost nil. I cleared out my work station and had enough paperwork to throw away to b ...

So I finally get my check. I say finally because after many emails they admitted this week they held my training pay a payperiod. So this check should've had my training pay, a full week and another half week's worth of work. Nope! Came in waaaaaaaaaaaay under what it was supposed to be, and of course, I can't access the time card anymore. So glad I left that dishonest company! ...

I am getting my foot back in the water on a PT basis. Have tried about 4 other companies out there and didn't find a better fit yet. I know all companies have good and bad, but all the changes MQ made that enticed me to leave are now being instituted by other companies too. It is like MQ was the leader of the pack and they all thought --- Hummm, if they can, so can we. ...

This is what I have been complaining about for a while now -- that my ASR accounts are HORRIBLE. They are not even putting out anything that makes sense, lots of gibberish, sometimes made-up words, and is taking a huge amount of time to edit this bunk. At least now some other accounts are doing the same thing and I know I am not nuts. ASR is regressing. ...

Today is my last day with MQ (formerly Spheris) and I quit just in time. I got the new MT Rewards Plan document and I don't know if everyone is affected the same but it would mean my pay would go down another 10%. Are these folks just plain crazy or what? Good riddance to this whole company. ...

So... I worked for WMX for 3 years (after MQ for 7), then I left to work for the local school system for a year and a half. I got laid off due to state budget cuts. My former manager from WMX took me back but said I had to work third shift -- maybe not permanently -- no promises. I worked my *#% off for 6 months, almost to the day. It wrecked my sleep patterns, my personal life, everything... but I needed the money and benefits, so I did it. Finally, my account went through the ISR conversi ...

MModal didn't cut my pay this week, I haven't been thrown into the cesspool yet, I haven't been put on QA review (yet) and I have plenty of work. So we'll see what tomorrow brings. ...

back in the day, I took the course at the junior college. The cost was negligible. I'd be really upset if I spent what these schools charge, only to get a job that pays minimum wage. ...

Can I confess to a guilty pleasure? I left Nuance back in July and I confess that at the end of the day I love coming on this site and feeling like my decision to leave gets validated every time I do. Honestly, it feels better than chocolate, and less calories. I left with an "Anything would be better than this mentality," and actually it's been true. I started working at a large DIY store, made way more money, but admittedly did find it pretty boring (I think becaus ...

I am really glad I found this board. I felt really alone. It's nice to know I'm not the only one who thinks MQ is making a profit off of the MTs. Being cut in pay for ASR was bad enough, but this first time right stuff is too much. I am going back to school and I'm getting out of the MT business. ...

I had put that the patient had "intimate slurred speech" -- (that's what my ears heard!) -- but dictator had said "intermittent slurred speech". SHEW! Brain and ears must work together, always!! ...

After nearly 20 years in this industry, I am happy to say that I am free now! Praise God! ...

Some KSMTs posted they got paid today, some got paid on the 1st. This tells me this was not an issue with late line counts or the payroll guru asking them to kindly roll payroll ahead a few days. Truth has to be they do not have the money available to make payroll and had to pick and choose who to pay based on the money available. Those who asked for hardship case or who they did not want to risk losing got paid. Those they thought could be strung along for 2 more days were not paid un ...

I am back to post an update from a few months back. I have been attending Andrews for a while now and quite honestly should be finished with the course, but I hit a few bumps in the road, which set me back as far as time. I was feeling REALLY discouraged a few months ago and was just trying to hurry and get through it all and feeling like I had gotten myself into a huge mess with coding. But, I am happy to say that I am so thrilled I didn't give up. Andrews is an awe ...

There are nothing but a bunch of highly hateful and bitter MTs on here. Wow!! I think you all need therapy! ...

"Richard Gwinn, MD, director of urgent care at Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group in San Diego sings voice recognition's praises: "It took me less than one-half hour from the time I first opened Dragon Medical to the time I was using it. It’s been a life changing application. I go home earlier. I don’t have stacks of charts on my desk and the swelling has gone down in my fingers (from typing).” This was taken off Nuance's FB page. ...

suing on a board that is NOT anonymous and full of PROFESSIONAL people. I know now that the rude and stupid responses I got were...well...stupid! lol!! come on people! ...

I left, it seems to have gone downhill quick. ...

I'm so glad this board is here. I have been an MT for 19 years. I'm trying to break into the coding field. I have worked around medical records for my entire career, first med records job (I know it's not called that any more) in 1979. Then I worked in a hospital clinical area, then as an MT for 19 years while my kids were at home. I would like to translate this experience into a coding position. In my MT work, I have mostly done acute care wor ...

every single thing we do rather than fixing the question mark problem in Fluency, or the fuzzy physician search, etc. Sigh. ...

It sounds like the new pay scale isn't as bad as it originally seemed. Thanks for sharing. :) ...

I have had 6 (SIX!) reports come through, all having the same mush-mouthed, fast talking, whispering, ESL doctor. Oh, and the sing-song thing is really about to make me blow my stack. I swear, he is so bad that I can't even understand the patient's name!!!! I am going to pull my hair out. Yep, I feel it coming. It takes me forever just to get through ONE of his reports. He gets so many blanks that I honestly feel sorry for the QA person that end ...

Working at .075 cpl for ScribeRight I made a whopping 12K in 2009. Wow - let's all run out and take MT classes to jump on that bandwagon. Anyway, I quit my MTSO pimp and went to work for a well-known Italian restaurant chain in 2010. I work in the kitchen 6 hours a day for 5 days a week (Mon-Fri lunch shift with no nighttime or weekend shifts) and make about 15% more than I did as an MT. I am not an IC anymore but rather an employee, so I saved a bunch on my social ...

My bubble has been burst. I was with eTransPlus when the Q swallowed them up and then I left. Now, I'm with another MTSO and it's awful. I've only been MTing for 5 years. I was an office nurse (LPN) for 13 years before that and I wanted a change. My first job was with a great company and then the huge acct I was on was bought out by an MTSO, so I had the choice of being laid off or going to IC status. I chose to be laid off thinking I could draw ...

I just cannot do this anymore with MMmodal. I cannot sit here for 14 hours a day for 800 lines. I am completely broke, have no food in the house, and am more depressed than I have ever been in my entire life. I'm in a constant state of panic, have been sending out applications and resumes, but am so far in the hole financially I will never get out. I just don't understand how a company can do this to people and live with what they are doing. I cannot even ...

Reading these posts, watching women post about how to work the system to keep their piddly minimum wage/unemployment coming in while MM finds yet another way to screw us over. It makes me sick to think of what we have become. The experience we have, the expertise we are still expected to have, and yet we sit here discussing how to keep getting our minimum freakin wage. Do you not all see how WRONG THIS IS? All we do is complain, or let them beat us down until we quit. How is i ...

The endless berating of my work and the poverty level wages that go with it are more than I can deal with anymore. I'd take a job doing most anything to get out of this drudgery. Unfortunately with years of doing this, it's hard to even get a job at a hamburger joint! ...

2 in 1 day: VR: scrotal tenderness s/b: throat tenderness (the patient was female!) VR: no tomatoes s/b: no organomegaly I have to laugh at this job or else I'll cry. Geez! ...

So glad I don't work for MQ anymore - RDS

Yeah, I can believe it. I am on my way out too, - Just waiting for my new job to start.
