Why is MME leaving QA markers in my reports? sm

Sorry QC was put on the grid and suffering losses (like we have), but from my point of view the more of them leave, the more work left for us. Isn't that horrible we are reduced to feeling that way about our co-workers??? Some QC say they are not allowed to do MT unless the account is behind, some say they are allowed when they run out of work. From the length of time we have been suffering from OOW I have to believe they can and do jump in on our work when out of QC ...

I'm fairly new to MQ and learning the skip marker thing. Could someone please tell me, are we suppose to remove the markers that say <non-s>? I've had so many reports that are FILLED with these markers. Or, are they suppose to stay in? I'd appreciate input/answers. Thank you, Happy. ...

Has anyone else had this problem, where you put a QA marker, but when you go back to listen to it again, it takes the sound back to the beginning of the report and no matter how many times you try to fix it, it just keeps doing that? What's the deal? ...

Cardiac bile markers? I have never heard of this but that sounds like what he is saying. ?? ...

I got a call from MQ regarding the amount of <skip> markers in my ASR reports. I was told that there shouldn't be more than 3 to 5 skip markers in any given report??? This sounded absolutely ABSURD to me and I told them to give a listen to some of the reports I edit and explain to me how exactly I am suppose to accomplish that! Has anyone been told that or something similar? It doesn't seem to me that the "ASR machine" will learn if we simply do correctio ...

He says "I was going to do the CMT genetic markers for the "excellent" gene". I have looked under CMT genetic markers and cannot find any "excellent" gene or anything that looks like it. Any ideas? ...

I was wondering why in the new 6.1 version, it takes more words to get an automatic S marker inserter (highlighting words then using the delete button). I used to have to count the words and if 5 or more, used to place the S marker. I wonder why now the difference. Do you think the Q keeps track of how many S markers are generally given in our documents as their ASR system is developed, and now wants to give themselves another pat on the back, exclaiming how their stellar ASR s ...

I accidentally hit the delete button and it did not put in a skip marker so wondering if the trainer was wrong. ...

Since the new upgrade 3 days ago, the ASR reports are showing continuously these red non-s markers.... Annoying. And I don't hear in the report any lapses of time. I thought this was supposed to be something that was manually put in, so my guessing is Yes, we are editing ILP work!!!! Oh well, I am just ecstatic I now have high speed internet and now no longer at the mercy of dial up on top of NJA and other problems. I actually do li ...

Has anyone heard of Margin Map markers used during mastectomy? Previous reports have it as MarginMap markers, but I cannot find this in any of my reference books or online. The complete sentence is "The breast was labeled with a MarginMap markers." TIA! ...

My first report of the day was an ESL (typical for a Sunday when that's all I get). I had QA markers, but when I went to send the document, the QA box was already checked and I couldn't uncheck it. I didn't think another set of ears would have heard what I couldn't. Obviously this report went on to QA as I was given no choice. Aren't we supposed to have a choice to check that box starting today? ...

gotta love ASR - this one made me spew coffee. ...

anyone remember how to turn off skip markers? ...

When a doctor uses markers at the beginning of each patient's dication in a recording, how can I access those in Express Scribe when listening to it? I have e-mailed the company twice, and the first reply was totally unrelated to my question. There was no reply to the second query. I am currently using the free dl version of ExpressScribe but would glady upgrade to the $30 version if I was sure I could access the markers. Thanks for any help! ...

HELP PLEASE. The way I read the letter a QA marker will no longer automically route a report to QA, that we must request that it go to QA. So how do we do that? I'm stopped on a report with a marker because of no ADT feed. Thanks in advance. ...

Okay so I am going round and round with this. I understand that MQ will be using weekly figures to determine the submission rate. I understand how the submission rate is calculated but what I cannot figure out is how they determine what lines to pay the reduced amount on. My super's comment was that you will be paid the rate on everything after the 10% (3-14 - 5-1) or 5% (after 5-1) that is sent to QA. So, maybe one of you posters out there, who is not visual ...

Just a thought. I'd rather not have ASR learn too much. If it gets too good, I'm out of work (more than usual anyway). ...

I have heard this before but cannot place it. ...

Hi all. I was just wondering what other MTs prefer...little short reports or very long reports? Do too many of either affect your line count (and therefore your pay)? I definitely prefer very long reports! ...

They arent gonna help us with ASR problems,..least we can do is stop making problems for ourselves ...

Am i the only one that just hates the long ones? And by long I mean anything over like 4 minutes. I love progress and ER notes! ...

Can someone please tell me how long it takes to get 401K after leaving MQ. I have had it. I believe the dictators I am getting were hand picked for me, I can barely make minimum wage. I know this has been asked before, but please answer. ...

I've been sending out resumes almost daily for close to 8 months now. I've also been on at least 20 interviews but once they actually realize I've been working at home for almost 20 years, I don't get any job offers because they "want office experience." I've been so depressed with so many medical offices turning up their noses at me because I've been working from home. I'm quite sure I probably know termin ...

I am leaving WMX and wondered if they hold last pay until they receive their equipment back? Anybody in this position? Thanks! ...

Just wanted to add my voice to the growing chorus of long-timers leaving the Q finally. The account I worked on for 15 years just up and vanished Monday - without a word to any of us. I applied for, and got, a job offer within minutes of sending my resume. I know MQ has beaten us all down over the years, but there are actually other companies and people who appreciate our abilities and stamina to say with such a company for so many years in spite of it all :) ...

I've been cleaning out my office to start a new job soon, and I came across some things from the good old days, i.e., before the Q. I found email certificates my first CCM from 10 years ago sent when I kicked it line count and quality-wise. She didn't have to do that, but back then, we got respect as much as we gave it (I was HS back then). I also found some old pay stubs from when I was a tier 1 and just getting into the routine. I now make 1/6 of what I did wh ...

I recently left the MT field but am in a position where I have to review medical records daily. I've come across mistakes that make me question where they came from... was it a VR report that an editor didn't catch... was it a transcription error... or was it a doctor error. Some of the things I've come across were a statement along the lines of "would've healing well"... I figure this was supposed to be something like "wound is" healing well. I came across a discrepancy ...

Curious, as to those getting out of MT, where are you going? I am soooo dissatisfied with this profession today. My wages are half what they were hourly only 4 years ago (VR for me is not profitable). The account specs get more and more complicated and you have to work on at least 5 or 6 accounts to keep work. Add in the hard to understand accents (I mean can't even understand the dictator's name half the time) and the left off demographics, and it is a recipe for low, low wages. I liv ...

Since ASR and off-shoring came along I have been wanting to leave the industry and after 5 years of procrastinating I finally took the plunge. I have been applying and interviewing and after turning down two offers from different companies I finally accepted a position a couple days ago as a nurse aide with 1/2 hr lunch which food is provided, two 10 minute breaks, every other weekend off, every other holiday off (time and a half pay when I do work holidays), $.30/hr extra weekend pay, 4% ...

I just got a job working for a Medical Records company. I will be attaching scanned medical records into the EMR. I am so thrilled I won't have to sit at my computer waiting all day for work to come in to make little money. For those of you that are looking to get out of MT, it can be done. Don't give up. ...
