Yea! All my hard work over the past 3 days - earned me 8.00 on the bonus!

I'm just curious because I'm actively looking for anything other than this MT crap. On my main account, most of this a.m. no work. Now all of a sudden there's work plus they want me to move to another count to help out. Why didn't you need my help this morning? Sorry, but my shift ends now and I'm outta here. It seems every day there are people quitting - I can't wait to jump on that band wagon. :) ...

The patient underwent a "PAST". It's an OB/GYN procedure. TIA :) ...

Just when I think I can't possibly be more amazed by the ineptitude of this ASR program. ...

I am actually checking FIESA right now as I was placed on a new account almost 2 weeks ago but I am having a hard time taking these scores seriously as I just saw a report of mine. I left a blank , I did hear welder but the sentence was poor and I clearly heard retired earlier. The sentence QA put in is: He works welder. I kid you not. This next paycheck I pay a bill off. There are things I need some money for and I keep trying to remind myself of that so ...

a company who treats me like garbage. I get a warning for 2 (yes just 2) reports that have quality issues (they say). Hmmmm. Never had this problem before. ...

They said we would be able to look up past reports on specific patients and by specific docs, but I don't know how. Anyone? ...

Does anyone use EMDAT or have in the past? What do you think about it? Thanks for any information. ...

I just remembered the Impact Room. I wonder how many trial-and-error programs we've been through over the past couple years. They must have a whole team of people who sit around all day and come up with one scheme after another, all of which are eventually scrapped. ...

Rigor mortis had passed/past in all extremities. ...

used a 5-French Glide catheter and thru this passed a Spartacore wire into the popliteal artery past the stenosis.....Is this correct or am I losing my mind with these passed/past??? ...

It is about group being out of work. Just curious. ...

For those of you who have been wondering about "past pointing", it really is that. The doctor actually spelled it out! ...

I was going to go with I&Dd, but that doesn't look right. Or spelled out would be "The patient had an abscess that was incision and drained"? That doesn't look right either, but just unsure. ...

People are not doing a full listen/correction. There are some pretty blatant errors, and these errors are being repeated by subsequently dictating physicians who are obviously using other documents for information (as it should be). Blatant errors such as allergy to medications that don't even exit, blatant lab errors that are counter to some of the diagnoses. I shamefully admit to not doing a full listen when I first started voice recognition was back in the beginning, but quickly noted ...

I was purging papers and came across an earnings statement from TL in 2001 (yeah, I know, way overdue on cleaning out files). Back then, my base pay was 0.0925 and the 2-week pay after taxes, insurance, 401K was $1100. In comparison, today my base pay pretty much is 0.035 for VR and 0.07 for straight. It is possible to make a higher rate at Nuance, but it is not easy, so I do not expect it. My last take-home pay prior to the holidays was less than $600. Also, my TL line count was 3000 higher for ...

This may be an obvious question to most, but how do I print a hard copy of a document I recently completed on EditScript? Or can I? I'd like to keep a copy of what "I edited/typed myself" before the QA reviews it, so that I can see my errors and learn from them, or have something to back me up if I disagree. Can someone provide me with an answer. please I know I can print them AFTER they have been reviewed by QA, but I want it before hand with my errors.....shou ...

after being fired? ...

I have been looking around the boards for a bit and I see everyone complaining about working for peanuts (or less) for their MTSO. I currently work at home for a somewhat local hospital in my area. They sent all of their transcriptionists home about 6 years ago and their coders are home now too. I know that the other big hospital system in my area has all of their transcriptionsts at home too. Is it really that hard to find a job like mine or did I just get lucky? ...

sit at a keyboard for 8 hrs a day everyday. Guess I'm just getting old. Wish I could find part-time work. Does anyone know of any good companies that will allow part-time (20-25 hrs)? Doesn't seem to be very many out there. TIA. ...

I am wondering if you all feel like I do, many years as a transcriptionist and the industry has changed so. I used to be able to earn an income that I could live on and now half that amount! I would like to hear what your paychecks are, the amount of hours you work and is anyone satisfied. No names, of course, yours or the companies! I, personally, absolutely kill myself for $10/hour. For some unnamed companies you are suppose to earn an established amount ...

Hello. I would like to switch from transcribing to coding. I'm considering CareerStep. Would it be very difficult for me to find a job where I work from home, or just finding a job at all? Thank you. ...

Over the last 3 years I have referred to this site infrequently and looked at posts and thought to myself "sounds like a bunch of bitter folks." I have tried to keep my "game face" on but I can't do it anymore. I moved to Nuance/Webmedx last December after Medquist purchased JLG and I was NOT about to work for them. What a huge mistake on my part, not that either were good options. My pay has dropped to minimum wage -- I now bring home MONTHLY what 4 years I had made pre ...

This past week editing a report and the dictator was giving the diagnosis. By the way this was an ESL so lots of the voice recognition was wrong to start with, numerous corrections had to be made. The guy started out with 1 and then 2 and dictating away. They then said #6 and I did not hear the numbers in between. I sent instant message telling mgm and was told after the fact I should have divided the categories. I am not a physician, could not differentiate that clearly to start with, the guy c ...

If I have 5 years experience as a transcriptionist and a Bachelors degree in education, do you think I could get a job as a TSM? I don't have experience as an editor or manager and haven't gotten my CMT so I don't meet all the requirements they list, but I'm wondering how picky they are? ...

I haven't received my new hard drive yet. Are the main programs already loaded on. ...

of being 'fit' places for which to work with actual work for which you'll be paid a fair 'wage,' when oftentimes that is just not the case. There continue to be 'companies' posting repeatedly on the 'Seeker's' board that have no business doing so. There is either little or no work, they do not pay 'on time' if at all, and the wages are sub-standard/subminimum. You are lied to from the moment you have the misfortune to have been "on ...

I'm surprised I haven't received performance management yet. I just cannot keep my line count up high enough since going to Fluency 7.6. This is too frustrating. Maybe I should copy a job into Word and see if the line count matches. Although, it could be because the ASR output has been so horrible and I am stopping 3x more to make corrections. I don't get why ASR outputs synonyms of what was said and alternative ways to phrase what was said, not to mention the downright w ...

How hard do you think it will be to get a job after not doing transcription for 14 years. I have an AAS degree in MT and several years experience, but like I said that was a while back. Just wondering about my possibilities... ...
