Not if you are working 2nd or 3rd. The day is the gravy. On late shifts you get the CT's, MRI's, vascular studies, residents. I was on first and thought and running out of work constantly and I asked if 2nd is better, they said yes, but still run out and get the very long reports. I made more on 1st shift even with running out of work. I cannot go back to days. I could kick myself!! They were not honest with me, surprise, surprise!!

Account Ending, Starting To Look Around
Feb 14, 2013

Well, another job bites the dust! After working for the same MTSO for 5 years, she just notified us that our job will be ending at the end of the month.  The hospital did not renew our contract and signed with M Modal instead.  The same exact thing happened to me after working for another MTSO for four years prior to this one.  All the little guys are getting swallowed up by the big nationals, it seems.   So, now I get to search for another job (sigh).  I've got 8+ ...

M-Modal Radiology Question - Sm
Aug 29, 2012

For the past few months, M-Modal has been trying to get me to contact them.  When I originally applied and tested for them, they said I failed. (I have 25+ years in radiology ONLY, including QA).  Now suddenly they are chasing me.  My question to all M-Modal radiology MT's is - would this be worth looking into?  I have read this board, but not much is mentioned, if anything, about the radiology accounts.  Any and all info would be appreciated before I decide on my c ...

very long reports coming in about 10 minutes before we are about to finish for the day, which will force us to either do, causing us to stay over, or opt out of, which will leave time which we then will have to make up at their approval.  There's always torture involved with just doing our job.  It's like industrial terrorism.   ...


MTSO's - Is This The Best I Can Expect?
Apr 05, 2011

After 20 years of hospital-based HIM transcription, they gave us away to Medquist.  I feel set up for failure by not getting consistent hospital accounts and never having a chance to learn a specific account.  Communication with management is - absent - unless they want something from you.  I also find the pay and line count methodology to be deplorable, to say the least.  I have VR experience, but find that Medquist just turns on literally EVERYTHING to VR, and most of it re ...

These Companies Just Expect TOO MUCH!
Aug 22, 2013

These MTSOs just expect way too much out of someone just APPLYING for a job these days that it has caused me to not even apply anymore.  I need work, but I suppose I don't need it enough to be willing to jump through all of the hoops that they require.  The MT testing site has been aggravating enough, to take so much time on a test, not even knowing if you will get a call back, even if you DO pass.  Lately, like the past 3 jobs I have looked into, their testing process was IN ...

In-house Job Prospect, What To Expect?
Sep 01, 2011

I just set up an interview for an in-house job.  Problem is, I've only worked from home, so I'm really not sure what to expect.  It is for a rural hospital district.  My experience is with medium to large multispecialty clinic accounts.  The HM manager said it was transcription, including radiology, as well as acting as assistant to her, which makes me think it might be more clerk work than transcription. I'm wondering if there are any questions I should ask m ...

I thought they were 2 different services.  Everyone is buying out everyone, so who knows.  All the small companies have been merged I guess.  I thought Nuance was out of New York and were the primary with VR.  Maybe one has to keep up with the changes and be a member and pay the dues and go to the meetings with AAMT and be a CMT to keep up with the changes, even though you still get 4 cents. ...
