Went to Job Vent. That is amazing.

DICTATED: Inferior turbinate hypertrophy. VR: Murder. DICTATED: She was taken to the recovery room in stable condition. VR: She was taken to the recovery room in worse condition. ...

There's actually a benefit working for Medquist - incredible - I bought an Android phone through Sprint this week, and they looked up Medquist for a possible monthly discount - and my mouth dropped open - it's 25% off the monthly price - is that my 3 cents back I wondered (NOT). So if you have a cellphone find out if you can get the Medquist discount - and the dude in the store said this is for the life of the contract (I hope he's right) ...

This company is amazing. They pay us to read emails that come in from management/TLs. They have a space on the time card where you put in your time to read emails. What company does that? On top of that, no ugly emails, EVER. I love this company!! ...

I'm sure most doctors can't hold a candle to our knowledge of terminology for the dozens of specialities out there, including surgical terms. Are we underpaid or what?? ...

so, they disable cut/paste so we can't outside DQS on our computers, then enable it again until they figure out what to do -- all in the name of making this more HIPAA compliant/secure --- but there's no concern with records going to foreign countries? Genius ...

I got a contract with this company and have never seen anything like it. Their performance rating/expectations outline is the most condenscending, tryannical thing I have ever read. I bet military rules are more lax than this company. They give you a 12-hour window but then say you cannot leave your computer for more than 30 minutes 3 times a day. Then even go on to explain you can't go to a party, grocery shopping, go to the gym, school event, social gathering, bake ...

people can be so stupid, or oblivious, to the fact that they have an over-abundance of MTs during the week that run out of work on a constant basis but, on the weekends, work is over-flowing to the tune of "help help help". Can they not figure out that if they would cough up just a few more cents a line for someone to cover weekend shifts, and offer it IN HOUSE first, that this all could be eliminated? Of course, I don't know why it amazes me. These people never were in the tra ...

It is amazing how I can work for 2 companies and one of them treats me like crap and makes me feel like I do not know to type even though I am in my 23rd year of doing this. The other company just sent me my last audit for 6 times the amount of lines audited by Nuance and they found 4 minor errors, bunches of good job no error and 1 major error. I am not as stupid as Nuance thinks I am and also the account I type on for my other job is mainly ESL and is quite frustrating but I do wel ...

that little spinny thing has been spinning for half hour..Closed it out and tried again and the spinny thing keeps on spinning..You would think they could do better..And Windows Live Mail sends a message server refused to connect.. ...

has run out of work yet again, from last night and still this morning. Stupid me for believing the promises of a recruiter. ...

I have an ARNP doing a radiation follow up. She dictates "33 fractions of 5040 GRAY" and then goes on to say "that's small c, capital G, small y." She has done this a number of times over a number of reports. I'm just shaking my head. ...

I just spent the last few hours pretty much completely re-typing garbage VR! I am so sick of this! Especially after we just got our rate cut significantly. Why can't they provide a good VR platform??!! I just worked my butt off for nothing! ...

Someone ought to take these ESL doctors and torture them like they torture us with their unbelievably horrible English speaking skills! We should not be told we're jeopardizing patient care - it's the ESL doctors. I've never had an ESL doctor and I'd refuse to be treated by one who can't speak clearly or speak a complete sentence. Jerks! ...

I've been doing this a long time, and I know how oblivious doctors are to anything approaching being polite when they dictate. I've heard them in the bathroom, I've heard them yelling at their kids, talking on the phone, listening to football games on TV while dictating, etc. We all have. But there's this one foreign female doctor on the account I regularly transcribe who drives me UP the wall. She apparently thinks dictation time is time to eat. ...

I hate being on QA hold. I just started a new job and no matter where I've worked through the years, QA always seem to be the same! It's never consistent. I'm marked off for one thing by one QA and then not for the same thing by another! Am I supposed to do that or not? I'm trying to learn this account and being 2 different things on one subject is confusing to say the least! ...

Wow, if E-scription is such a wonderful ASR platform, I feel sorry for us all becuase I have had to change at least 1-2 words per line on E-scription today, WHENEVER I actually had work, that is. This whole thing is getting worse and worse all the time, and for such horrible cpl rates that I can't even stand this after 36 years. If the doctors and all the big muckity mucks had even the SLIGHTEST clue. Gladly change places for one report with them. Thanks I needed t ...

Ugh, I am getting so frustrated with this ESL doc. He says these doctors' names and I cannot understand him and I don't even know if he's pronouncing them correctly. I search through all the doctors' names that start with the letter that it sounds like he saying to try to find one that might match how he is pronouncing it. It's taking so much time. If I find a name that comes close enough to what he is saying, I will use that. Other times I ...

Just need to vent and complain a little about the annoying way this ESL dictates...it's really getting on my nerves. He constantly says things like: Heart sounds "is" regular. Medications "is" reviewed. Lungs "is" clear. Always combining plurals with singulars. Then there's the: There is "a" pitting edema... And no, he's not saying "ah", it is clearly an "a." There is "a" mitral regurgitation... Finally, I can tell he's re ...

We have a supervisor.. just one. She can also type at home if she chooses to once she gets home from the office. Of course she does because she makes a lot more money. I probably would too. But, here's my peeve..... We can't cherry pick.. of course not. No sending jobs back that are from some of the worst dictators in the world. We just trod through and type and get those horrible lines per hour on those horrible docs . But she assigns all the best dictator ...

I am trying so hard at this new job. I've been there a month, and I've never seen such complicated visit choices, etc. It's just very difficult for me for some reason. I have pages and pages of good notes, but I'm always missing something. So far, no one has been ugly with me, but I'm feeling it's only a matter of time. I'm an experienced MT of over 12 years and am very good, but I'm just about to cry because of these header p ...

I've switched jobs about 4 times this year, searching for the "perfect fit" - even went down to 7 cpl as an IC which everyone on these boards has said NEVER to do, just so I could have no weekends and flexibility during the day. Just when I thought I found a great company, they changed their platform to Emdat/Inscribe. Oh, ah, so much fun - NOT!!! And so much for that 7 cpl. We'll be getting 2 cpl on the QT lines :( I am soooo unhappy. To make ...

This dictator is driving me nuts!!! Even the sound of every deep, gravelly, congested-sounding breath the man takes makes my head and ears hurt. Sounds like he's dictating with his mouth full of spit or some kind of gunk. Ewwwww gross! Plus he's ESL. Plus it's an account I've never done before. Plus it's sounds like he's dictating under water, and he keeps repeating what seems like every other phrase. I'm already irritable, grouchy ...

Dear Doctor: Just to let you in on a little secret, I do not get paid to listen to you to sit and read through your chart, eat, or take phone calls. I'm a real person listening to you, so either dictate or hang up. Thanks so much. ...

I absolutely hate the account I type for....hate it. Is it really THAT difficult to want most of the physicians dictate correctly? I said 'most' too because I do know that to expect all of them to dictate correctly is ridiculous. I can't even average 10 reports an hour on this account because of the errors. They mumble, slur their words, clip their words, rustle every paper around them... and I'm taliking about 80% of them! This is a new account ...

I have a full-time position which I honestly can say I love. However, all things being what they are in this field, I always try to keep my eggs in least 2 baskets "just in case." I accepted an IC position for a little "mad money" a couple of weeks ago from a company with a pretty decent reputation, "IC" being the operative phrase here. The TL to whom I have been assigned is driving me batty. She is constantly wanting to call me with things that could very well be addressed via oth ...

Just got a new account a couple of weeks ago and was super excited because its brand new, straight transcription until VR picks it up.......good deal? Not so much. It seems the QCs are all on a different page. I have sent the 3 "Super" QCs all the same question and got different answers. Sent it to my lead and she told me to ask the "Super" QCs. (I just love that term and wonder if they put sticky stars on a matrix on their refrigerators every time they flush an MT ...

I am about to let loose so stop reading now if you don't feel like hearing it. I am SICK and TIRED of new MTs in this field who say that all is rosy in the MT world. Oh, what bright horizons and exciting times for us here!!! Oh how wonderful for those who roll with the punches because technology is gee whiz wonderful. The stockholders are promised less labor in the future. Well isn't that great, that doesn't affect ME. That means we are looking forward to bright ...

Why oh why can't these companies have just a speck of honesty when they hire us? I was recently hired by a company and was hired for "fulltime" and I get at the most 600 lines daily. I actually love the job and would probably work it part-time, if asked, but why deceive me into thinking they had full-time lines available? I see MTs who are actually looking for part-time and most companies say "We are sorry, but we are only hiring full-time." I am beginning to belie ...

How many times do you see the same mis-spelled words coming up in VR? I can't stand it. How do they get there in the first place? I think they're just trying to set us up for failure. How stupid! ...

a pet! I do all the work types I am sent, I work my schedule, I do all the OT "required" and still I am not thanked or anything, yet others are who come on when they scream OT even though I am already doing it. UGH!!!!!! ...
