There must be problems in MM ASR land today.

I heard that coding is a career where it is hard to land that first job because experience is wanted. Is that true? I'd appreciate any input. ...

Those of us who have many years experience know that very, very few doctors can be trusted to actually proof and correctly edit their reports. Am I wrong in thinking that this will lead to a lot more malpractice suits which will cause malpractice insurance to dramatically rise? We know that they want to replace us completely, but will the doctors learn to dictate the first name and address, email or fax of all the docs they wish to cc? Of course not. This necessitates off ...

No it is not a typo, and yes I am drinking. So what. ...

Anyone out there have any back problems and have found the perfect chair or cushion or back support that helps you with comfort while sitting at the computer all day. Looking for some references. ...

landed a job that required experience that you did not have? I am getting so very frustrated. I have a job now that covers maybe a week and a half of groceries every month. I am pretty new to this field, but due to a ridiculously long college program, I have studied for well over a year and I know my stuff. I test very well and I know what I am doing. All I want at this point is a job with work available, but all of the decent deals seem to require experience. I just need some way around this. I ...

I am having one of THOSE days where there are tons of errors! The numbering on meds and diagnoses are wrong about 90% of the time! They tell us our PERCENT OF ACCURACY. What is the ACCURACY of VR????? I'll bet doctors would be horrified if they saw the stuff that we need to fix, except they are too busy to give a crap about us. Days like this I just feel like I am walking through a field packed with land mines, knowing I have a good chance of stepping on one! Does anyone else get sc ...

I am only able to find a privately owned local phone company in this small town to offer Internet, through the phone, requires a landline (which I really did not need). Pricing: $100. For 750 min long distance, call waiting, caller ID, DSL - 3MB. VERY expensive just for internet and phone line!Insane...ALL calls ANYWHERE except within just two small communities within 5 miles of our new house are long distance! So, we will be using our cell phones for all calls. There are no ot ...

By this time in the day, usually, there has been at least 7 emails - several from QA, at least 2-3 backlog updates, and 1 reminder to work our shift and work our entire shift. ...

My work is normally about 97% ASR, today I have only had 1 ASR job. I'm not complaining, quite the opposite actually. I'm just curious if anyone else is getting less ASR work today. I was hoping it was down and we can expect a day or two of straight typing. ...

Unable to log on because DQS needs to be updated. Then can't update on DocuManage because there's no link. They tell me they someone will call back and help me, but they have no way of knowing when. This would definitely qualify for technical downtime, am I right? Anyone else having this issue today? ...

DQS is driving me crazy today. When I push the pedal, it takes a couple seconds to start playing. If I let off the pedal, it keeps going for a couple seconds and I can't get it to stop. The typing I am doing does not keep up with my finger speed either, with words not showing up until after I've typed them. I use my own computer and have never encountered this issue before. It is a major hindrance though, slowing me down. What's next? ...

Typing that last report, signing out for the last time.....it was all very surreal. I still can't believe I actually left. Sad though because I wasn't offered anything PT (not that I would had taken it), and nobody said "we'll be happy to take you back". AND....no exit interview. Guess I thought they appreciated me more than that. Oh well. Some of my friends wished me well and will miss me. Thats all I need. ...

Horrendous, absolutely horrendous. It felt like I was editing an ASR report. If they are all like this one, then I have no worries about losing my job to the Indians because once the clients see the garbage that is coming out of there, they will be begging for the USA. ...

Since my shift started a little over an hour ago, I have blown out my hair, cleaned the bathroom, made a dentist appointment and paid some bills! Whew! Looking for what to do next because it sure doesn't look like I'll be doing any typing this morning. NJA all day so far! Weeeeeee!!!!! (Sorry, just needed to try to make some humor out of it). Hope everybody has a great weekend! ...

I get so fuming mad about all these things that are going on at Nuance and with our careers and livlihoods, the lies and deceitful practices of this company that came along and gobbled up all the MTSOs and made my life a nightmare. I am the type of person that wants to fight for what is right and make my voice heard. Why such a company could come in and treat the employees the way Nuance does. I fell that if I try to fight I will just get myself into major trouble. ...

I have not posted on this site for a long, long time because there is so much negativity on here and stuff that was posted that is simply untrue. Not sure why anyone would stay with a company when they are so unhappy and then good people get laid off. Today I got the call, about 3 hours into my shift. I knew something was up as my caller ID never says Medquist on it. My TSM's voice sounded really awful and all she could say was I am sorry to call with bad news but you have ...

I thought today was pay day?? No direct deposit for me. Maybe i'm confused ...

Noticing this a.m. really BAD. Putting in a lot that is NOT said and leaving out what IS said. As if our job isn't aggravating enough. More typing than editing. ...

Missing a lot of words and totally random punctuation. Oh well, I'd be at minimum either which way. ...

I have not received 1 email with account status updates, stupid "joke of the day", tip of the day or error emails. Also, none of the TMs are on. ...

After over 25 years as an MT, I'm not going to lie, I am a little sad. However, MT is not what it used to be. It served me well for about 20 years or so before it started to go south. I did manage to avoid VR, but it was only a matter of time. I recently completed school (again) and I am starting a new career. I know many people think it can't be done on the wages MTs have been reduced to, but I am living proof that it actually can! I continued working as an MT while I was in sc ...

I am offically sick of inconsiderate dictator day. They are being held accountable for their poor dictations with blanks, blanks, and more blanks.. I am done!!! ...

Suddenly my account has gone dry. My TSM's excuse is they are too heavily staffed on 1st shift...yeah, right. I just checked for the heck of it and still nothing. The account I am on begins with an E and is a hospital in PA. Wow, just wow. ...

first is open smart stitch sutures correct as is? and second is it times 2 or x2? Never had this before. :-). tia. ........This was treated with a subacromial decompression and repair of the rotator cuff using the open smart stitch sutures x 2. ...

Thi s is getting so old. I can't live off NOTHING. ...

Has anybody else gotten emails today from their CTL. I have gotten 4-5 of them so far from both CTLs in my area. I thought this position was suppose to have been eliminated. I wonder if they had a change in plans? ...

This is my first year working at home for a company (I worked as an MT for 6 years in a hospital) so I am new to all this not having work stuff. No work over the weekend and today. Is this normal? This never happened to me at the hospital. Now I am freaking out! ...
