TSM covering while mine is out is awesome!

We have to cover for their holiday and I wonder if they are covering for our US holidays. I highly doubt it. It seems that Mmodal caters to them. ...

I just want to say that everybody who gives advice here is the greatest! You know so much! Thank you for imparting some of your knowledge onto those of us who are just starting! This is going to be a long road, and it's nice to know that there are others out there to help! ...

LOLOL!! Sorry....couldn't resist :) ...

I started training with Transolutions this week and, lemme tell ya, it has been an absolutely AWESOME EXPERIENCE SO FAR!!! The training was very well-organized and, once we were sent off "on our own" during the training course to do live transcription, the peeps there were SUPER HELPFUL with answering any and all questions that I had. The feedback process is second-do-none and I really do get the impression that nobody really feels bothered when you ask them for direction and/or clar ...

deciding to check FIESA this morning.... REALLY DUMB DECISION! I have just about given up doing correction reversals, especially since ALL of my post-audit QA is done offshore. And most definitely now because they must've just hired someone off the street over there to do my post audits. Seriously, there is 1 offshore QA person in particular who will consistently go through my reports and delete text that I have either transcribed or edited (correctly I might add) and put& ...

I can't believe I put up with Nuance for soooo long! Precyse is just AWESOME! ...

I was watching a yoga show ("watching" being the operative word) and the instructor said she had a great exercise for people who sit at a desk and type all day. You can do this in your chair. You hold your arms out to your sides and keeping them straight out, rotate/twist them back and forth within the shoulder socket. You go as far as you can one way, and then hold it for a few seconds and then go the other way as far as you can and hold it. Your palms will point down one way and up ...

Just worked on an ESL report (with unfortunately for me very, very, very little English). This is a VERBATIM account. Sent it to QA and it was "transformed" into English with little regard for that pesky word VERBATIM. Does verbatim mean different things to different people? ...

Just got mine in the mail. ...

It's longer than the constitution for Pete's sake! I end up with so many entries because I get a job, one that usually takes 2 minutes to type, send it off, then NJA, wait a minute, here comes another job, type it, takes 2 minutes, and on and on. Craziness! ...

Just got a call from my dr's medical records wanting to know the name of the dr she wants my records sent to (she and I looked it up on the computer during my visit and I saw her write the dr's name down) and my dr's address, which I'm sure was on her request, her name and address. One of the last times I saw her, they put someone else's vital signs on my records (height, weight, BP and BMI). Sheesh. ...

This discussion actually began on October 3, 2014. To search for it, use the little blue search function and type in You missed something and the date 2014-10-04. I think it bears repeating again for all who might insist that people griping" here about Nuance are just conspiracy theorists. I prefer to think of them as canaries in the mine, warning folks away from Nuance. It is NOT just Nuance, as someone pointed out, but they are the most insidious it seems, about monitoring this board and disco ...

I always thought that companies paid for PTO based on an average of your last 3-6 months production. I just found out that my company pays by the hour! This means my PTO for a week will be half of what a I normally make? Have you ever heard of this? Is this the norm? ...

region when I had had my fill of NJA on the last region I was assigned to. Where I am now is certainly not perfect, has some NJA, some nasty dictation, but I do have something to type the majority of the time. If you could come up with the name of one of these supervisors with the critical backlog, fire off a request to be moved. Worked for me (about 10 months ago). ...

to fix it and put my schedule in there again. Not sure how that could affect PTO, if you are working supposedly with no schedule. But anyway, just a heads up. Especially if when you go to turn time clock on, if there is no blue indicator on the today's activity plan field. It that is empty and you are scheduled to be working, make sure the timecard is showing your scheduled hours. ...

Was wondering why my check so little, even though I did have 8 hours of work availability. Apparently they only paid me for two 15 minute shifts instead of my benefit rate times four hours each shift. If you are in a state that pays you for half of your shift for work availability,make sure to carefully check your pay for this pay period. ...

A lady I have talked with wants to train in this kind of work and is planning on going to Andrews. Would she be making at least $30.00 an hour when she gets a job? Thanks. ...

and suggestions.....my budget is around 700.00. Does anyone use a laptop? Will that withstand an 8 hour day of typing? I have an Emachine now and it is horrible. If I go with a desktop I would only need the tower. I think I would like a laptop but know nothing about them. I have a shift today so I have to do this ASAP!! Thanks for any suggestions. ...

I was typing my usual docs, hands flying across the keyboard when I typed "bilateral toe and knee replacements". I stopped and thought to myself...hmmm, they do toe replacements? wow! Then my brain kicked in and realized I should have typed....you guessed it, "bilateral total knee replacements" ARRGGHHHH, got a good laugh at my own expense out of that one! ...

I told her to give it not a second thought, it was a waste of money and time for the schooling required, and, even as an IC, she'd be LUCKY to make $.09 a line and have zero benefits. I told her she'd be MUCH better off working for McDonald's. Who is going to enter this profession of low pay and no benefits in the future? Who will stay when, even the transcriptionists who are fortunate enough to be doing straight transcription now, are gone after the switch to VR and ...

The following is from a Facebook post from a physician friend of mine. This is a letter he sent to his congressman. I got permission from him to post it here. Long read, but I feel galvanized by this: I have been dealing with 2 electronic health record (EHR) systems and it is clear that the technology is not ready for implementation. I feel they will increse cost, decrese access, and decrease quality of care in their current state. I encourage anyone reading thi ...

I have noticed my Fiesa audits have picked up significantly. Several reports a day usually. Maybe a day or 2 in a week where there is no audits. Wondering if they are zoning in on me or if this is norm across the board. ...

I am technically on probation so critical errors are like swallowing the whole mine I guess? Seriously, with the amount of errors on lists, I feel like I am just waiting to step on a land mine. They made me sign a contract that I would go 3 weeks without a critical error. I missed a dosage on a medication yesterday, KAPOW, there's my critical. And, see that, they even have me thinking I made the mistake. I didnt make the mistake I MISSED the mistake. No, I'm sorry, it's not t ...

It got my shifts wrong for different days, putting 5 instead of 6 hours. It evened out mostly to be correct but put an extra hour of PTO on my schedule. Which, my CCM, pointed out, I got paid for but my concern is if it keeps messing up on this stuff, how could I be being adversely affected. Nothing here works as they want. ...

So she signed up for this teach yourself transcription course, captured and enraptured by all its 'carnival barking' about the money, the prestige, and the convenience of working at home and being your own (uh-huh) boss...offering the world on a platter and stopping just shy of suggesting she could meet/marry a doctor. Flashcards in a box. Albeit medical words...but...flashcards in a box. ...

Okay, I'm new so I am not making much yet. Can we all just make a post saying how many hours we work, what we gross, how long you've been transcribing, and whether it is vr or st? Don't name your company. This way we can guage what we can expect to be making down the line. I've been transcribing for 2 months. This week I worked 37 hours and grossed $259.00 and it was 90% VR. ...

TSM covering while mine is out is awesome! - CT

Mine is a different one in the North but she is - really great also.
