Type what I wanna say - lovemydane

I would absolutely love to be able to leave a QA note on every report where the dictator is being a true imbecile. QA note "dictator smacking candy, unable to clarify." QA note "dictator calling from cell phone with bratty kids screaming in the background." QA note "dictator carrying on conversation with several others while dictating, unable to clarify what is or is not supposed to be in report." QA note "dictator a complete idiot, mumbling the whole time, spelling everything incorrectly, having a party with music and yelling in the background."

Feel free to add!!!

QA note: Dictator calling on cell phone while in cavernous bathroom. Difficult to hear due to "water running."

I think, at the very least, we should get hazard pay for transcribing some of these people. It is truly maddening how incompetent they are..and these are the people who are supposed to be saving lives.

The one I just did... QA note "dictator dictating on floor, several conversations going on in background, dictator moving phone, putting phone down, forgetting where he is in the dictation, covering the phone with his hand to keep the background noise down (duh), shuffling papers, and speed talking"

I actually put such notes in the QA box. - but in professional manner

"Cannot hear dictation adequately over background conversations." (nurses)

"Cannot hear dictation adequately over background noise." (screaming kids, dropping equipment, shuffling papers, et cetera.)

"Unable to discern whether doctor is dictating or continuing his conversation on the phone."

"Unable to discern whether doctor is dictating or talking to the nurse."

I don't bother to send a note to TSM with job number and doctor's name anymore, except for those who talk on the phone.

I document sound problems, etc., in the QA box. Yes, I know they might delete it, but too bad, they were informed.

Something smacks of anti-trust here. Excerpt: It’s been a little more than two years since the AHIMA and the Medical Transcription Industry Association (MTIA) recommended the visual black character (VBC) method be used as the standard unit of measure for medical transcription. Based on research from the Joint Task Force on Standards Development, the announcement came in the form of a white paper that made quite a splash. Defining a VBC as a “character that can be seen with the nake ...

It started with forcing us to do ASR, with a 20% reduction in pay, then upped the reduction to 40%.

Been sick all weekend. Have a sinus infection that hurts when I touch the side of my face and my eye is all scratchy and can't hardly see.

I am a small MTSO. I had a pretty big hospital account that went to ES VR 2 years ago. The fallout for the hospital has been rather profound. They offered me 16 for straight and 8 for VR. I thought at the time that I could live with that if VR made MTs faster and they could earn virtually the same as for straight typing. Well, that didn't turn out and my MTs ran like scalded dogs! I have since learned through grapevine that they are in real big trouble. The remaining few hospital MTs are ed ...
