Why a conference call for a failed audit? Has anyone done this? Am - TT

Posted: May 26, 2015

I have an audit review and was wondering why it is being done via conference call. Who else wil be attending this call?

They go so overboard on everything. Is this the first time you've failed one? - nm

Ask who is on the call - sm

Check the private recording statutes in you state and if you can, record it without telling them..

Better yet, inform them you're going to record it - and then it is all legal. sm

and I bet they'll be less condescending and rude as well.

But thats defeats the purpose - SM

it is totally legal if your state has one sided taping allowed, most do..I wouldnt tell them a blessed thing and tip them off. I know how they act, would rather catch them in all their glory..

Yes, it is my first. NM - TT

Had one before. They just asked me why I made the mistakes and what I was going to do to keep from making them again. It's all to get into your head. DON"T LET THEM.

I've gotten one before - with HDSM and PM coach

It's no big deal. They just ask if you need help reviewing anything, and then they sent me some material to read over. Never checked on me again.

I had that call in March... - Confused

I had 2 bad months in a row. Had a "conference call" that I was going to be watched closely for the next 2 weeks with a possible "focused audit." Nothing was ever mentioned again. I have been passing since then as well (lucky). I also did have to "acknowledge" a verbal PM in UltiPro, which is still showing as open. Obviously they don't follow those up. I think the only time that it will be brought up again is if I have another bad month. It is just sitting there waiting for me to fail again to move to the next stage. The biggest problem I have is I don't know if I am considered on PM or not? I have worked overtime...and no one has said anything. I know you aren't supposed to if you are on PM. Not very organized...

They will tell you if you are on PM. It usually takes - 3 failed audits in a 6-month period.

If you have 6 straight passing months, I believe the failed audit thing starts all over again from 1. I had 2 and had to take an on-line refresher, a 2-hour training call, and then 1 week of audits which I passed.

I've had many conference calls. It is just a - CYA for them.

It can be just you and one other person. The only reason it is called a conference call is so they can record it on their end.

So, I failed another "audit". I have to bounce back and forth between at least 10 accounts, therefore 10 different client profiles AND have to keep up with the ever changing QA preference of the day!

So, we're scheduled for an upcoming conference call and have to be clocked off but will get paid forour time. So . . . do we get paid that ridiculously low PTO time that obviously is getting lowered for practically all of us every 6 months? Does anyone find it strange that 99% of us have had our PTO pay cut soooo much over the years? Might be a good time to bring it up, during the conference calls, so that we can all chime in about it at the same time. ...

So if you disagree with a QA score done within the last week of the quarter, you are out of luck. So even if they are wrong you lose your QA bonus for 3 months. QA is horrific at this company and the quarterly thing is unfair. Supposedly they are "talking" about changing it back to monthly, maybe we should all give a little push for that !!! ...

What exactly does this mean? Are we at risk of losing our work and to who? They continuously ask us for more and more. The COM said she had sleepless nights about the account but also said she doesn't type because she chooses not to. That really struck a nerve with me and several of my MLS team members. What kind of team work is that when you're manager is not even willing to pitch in when things are dire? ...

"They" were actually referring to a different incident, a few days before this one, where I had signed off after being bounced around for 1-1/2 hours and could not make heads nor tails of the ESL dictators. I had sent in an explanatory note that time too. Anyway --- there was a viable two-way conversation. They didn't make a big deal out of the form -- told me to just sign it and forget about it --and it eventually will fade into remote history. For me, it's fine be ...

Maybe if MModal hired fewer employees from Microsoft they could afford to pay transcriptionist better and allow for cost of living raises. I have been a transcriptionist for going on 30 years and this company is one of the reasons we can't make a living wage. I am so tired of hearing the term "industry standard" because in the past when I worked with other companies and directly in-house I was paid more. Just because it is the "industry standard" does not make it right. &n ...

I see why they do their presentation this way as opposed to a live conference call where people could chime in and demand to know what in the hell is going on. While listening, I kept thinking I was watching an SNL skit, it was so dry, controlled and phony. Nothing was accomplished. I actually thought- hoped - we'd get encouraging words of a steady work flow and better pay. We could use Michael Moore on our side. ...
