When your TSM/QC calls just to "check in"... - Um, hello? I work on production!

Just heard from my TSM there will be no further calls regarding this latest _____???? I am going to send this to QA so I can lock my 7 cents a line rate in since I had to leave a blank. This is getting so very old. ...

Has anybody received their phone call about what their new schedule will be? ...

I used to work for Spheris/Medquist over a year ago. I received an automated call today from Medquist to reapply again. They claim they have a lot of work and need the help. I guess they have not figured out yet that MT's are leaving the field in droves. ...

Anybody get callback from MD2MD; and if so, had they already called your references? Anybody have any info on them; theyr'e out of California? ...

Have you ever transcribed conference calls, and if so, how does it compare with medical trancription in terms of income, time consumption, etc.? Any information would be helpful. Thank you in advance. ...

To your state's unemployment office if you were ever OOW AND your local labor dept. (How many times did you check email or FIESA on "production" time (unpaid)? Wage theft times years? ...

Anybody here from MDI who have attended the weekly conference calls about AAMC. I am a night owl and they always have the calls early morning. ...

Two phone calls that will never happen: RING-RING! MT: "Hello?" SUPERVISOR: "You @#$% lazy good-for-nothing. This report has two blanks in it! Why didn't you look them up?" MT: "Kwitcherbitchin, fool! You got exactly what you paid for!" RING-RING! MTSO: "Hello?" CLIENT: "You @#$% lazy good-for-nothings! This report has two blanks in it! Why didn't you look them up? MTSO: "Kwitcherbitchin, fool! You got exactly what you paid for!" ...

Does anyone remember the conference calls we had when transitioning to Transcend from MDI-MD regarding our line rates? I can remember quite a few people being upset that after being told our rates would not change, many had their line rates cut. And I specifically remember them saying that once our account went to VR, we would be getting 50% of our transcription rate. Does anyone else remember this as well? Either I'm losing my memory or someone is playing games because o ...

This is to all the people that get ticked off when MQ calls them to work. I WOULD KILL FOR A CALL TO WORK AT ANY TIME OF THE DAY OR NIGHT. I have always said I am available 24/7, but with the "new and not improved" MQ there is really no one to tell that to, no one who truly cares -- about the client or the employee. How wonderful it would be to feel needed again. With so many of us vying over so few reports, the only feeling I get from them is "just quit, just quit, ...

I got this email from my friend. I didn't know you could do this and have read a lot about customer service calls here so though it was interesting to post. I want to ask each of you to consider doing the following when you are talking on the phone to any US customer service representative that is based in a foreign country (like India ). I have done this twice and it works! Any time you call an 800 number (for a credit ca ...

I am so burned out and so tired of trying to get jobs here. So many of these recruiters do not call when they say they will and a few just never called. No explanations, no apology, like "Oh well they are only MTs, a dime a dozen and who cares if we do not call and fail to give them the courtesy you would any other worker." I am just worn out and sick of trying, sick of doing all the testing and then having an interview where nothing ever happens. I must admit Nuanc ...

This post is in regard to posts I have seen lately on this board regarding dictators. They actually do care or must feel they need to address situations that I bring to their attention. A call regarding flags from the physician himself. He is realizing how much time I am spending locating certain info not dictated. He tells me officially that the facility is to handle that now so as not to take up my time. A call from a dictator today, stating as he made so many errors and redictations on the ...

You can't get some of the schools to stop calling you even after you tell them you've enrolled with another school and graduated, and have a job. Is anyone else offended by the high-pressure tactics? If a school has to keep calling and offering discounts and specials, that's a red flag, or is it just me? I got my training years ago and I still can't get them to go away. You expect that from those cheesy sales people trying to sell you whatever, but th ...

The first call I received was week before last from Future Net. He said he got my name off of this board. I posted my resume YEARS ago. I swear, I could not understand half of what that man said. He was worse than any ESL I have transcribed. I did get that he was asking me if I was interested in a job. When I asked him what it was for, he did not know!! I told him I could not answer that question unless he could give me specifics. He said he would ...

It's no secret that on the charts and pies, there is the "elite" mgt team where all the money is funneled and then the lowly worker bees, aka MLS who allow that mgt team to enjoy the life they've become so accustomed to. Why bother to have such a call to just rub it in everyone's face? ...

So I have been slower than usual this week, and he picks my birthday to bury me in a week's worth of work (along with my other accounts he knows)..... urgh. I see this physician as a patient, and they know.... gosh...darn. Where was he anytime last week or this week but today.... now canceled plans to eat dinner at the computer. ...

So many phone calls, very pushy, rushed me to complete paperwork and software training, said my account would be VR, great bonuses, potential for 5.5 cpl, blah, blah, blah. They called right before the day I would officially start to inform me that the account for which I was hired miraculously had no work left...an account I was told was swamped during phone interview. They offered me a new account and everything discussed in our phone interviews (both with supervisor and HR) was completel ...

and asks me to help out an account I despise. The odd thing is the account I was pulled to has less than 10 jobs available and the one I was pulled from has closer to 150. Now how strange is that!!!!!!!! ...

anyone had theirs yet? ...

Has anyone else been getting strange recorded phone calls from M*Modal telling you to test for them? I keep ignoring them and yet they keep calling. I haven't tested for them in years and wouldn't work for them if they were the last MTSO left on earth. And the woman's voice who does the recording sounds like she is a robot or something from outer space, LOL! ...

I know the volume is up, have checked settings and the volume there also up. Have tried rebooting and nothing has worked. Any suggestions? ...

We would work the same he said. Lies all lies. One of my exclusives uploads throughout the day, the others all at once at the end of the day or their last patient. How I am suppose to cover this in 4 hours from time of dictation and only work part time? Did anyone record the transition to Nuance calls? I'd love to play them back now. **insert nasty language here** ...

regarding the new program-- "50 ways to screw over the MTs"?? ...

I turned in my 2-week notice and working the last week of the notice. When can I expect to get my last check as I am waiting on labels from the company to send back computer and cannot get CCM to answer as to if check will be held until computer is returned? Is there anybody with this experience that can tell me how long to expect to wait for the check and to wait for the labels as I have nowhere else to turn for the answers? Really need my check, but cannot get anyone to send ...

Moderator: I hope you will leave this on. Look on the Company Board. Scroll down to: Journalist's deadline question on Webmedx and Nuance - sewhidbey A journalist is doing an article on the local hospital's decision to outsource their transcription to Webmedx. The journalist wants info from MT's. Good chance to talk about Q, too! Here's a link to the article: http://www.pnwlocalnews.com/whidbey/wnt/business/129555093.html ...

I'm no genuis, but I think I have to make some changes here. My PT check for 20 hours was around 100 less than my FT 40 hour check. I like my FT job, good accounts, great supervisors, but the lines just don't accumulate there like anywhere else I have ever worked. Then I worry, what if the other company runs out of work or loses an account and I get laid off. There is no security in this business anymore. I guess, just don't burn your bridges b ...

When your TSM/QC calls just to "check in"... - Um, hello? I work on production!
