30% Nuance Clients Refuse Offshore Transcription

A legal contact was inquiring about the connection of medical mistakes related to off-shored transcription mistakes. I have told him to review these boards and hopefully he will benefit from the information here. While he did not discuss the exact case, I think that he will be able to use the off-shore transcription issue to his client's benefit or at least highlight that the provider in question does not have as rigorous control on processing records as other pr ...

Is it true that Nuance sends their work offshore? If so, that tidbit of information may save our jobs. ...

Don't you just want to throw up! Especially the comment about the draft already being 85-90% correct! ...

Does anyone know of companies that don't cheat us Americans and send work offshore? Tired of all this crap, as much as we need work. So much for loyalty. ...

Thanks so much for taking all the work in my primary and giving it to offshore so that I had to go to my secondary We-Don't-Speak-No-Good-English account! Thanks for helping me lower my line average with that awesome secondary and raising my QC average! Thanks for making me sign in and out 10 times yesterday to see if there was work! Thanks for taking the work (all out of TAT) and giving it back to onshore a half hour before my shift was over! Thanks for making me lose sleep over ...

....maybe the pay was too low, etc, etc. If you answer the weekly question on UE - did you refuse work this week and you answer yes, what can they do? Lower your UE, stop it altogether? ...

I absolutely Refuse to do any more VR for less than what straight typing pays. Find another Sucker to fix your jacked up reports. This is not worth my time, I am an Educated Professional. Do not take advantage of me, I will Not sell myself short! Note to transcription companies: Speech recognition is Not ready for medical or legal reports. It is more suited for personal or small business use at this point. Continue to push this VR crap and you will lose the good scribes. Wha ...

someone will take it - beats 0.00 Posted: Jan 17th, 2010 - 2:17 am In Reply to: Just saw a new ad ... .07 cpl, without spaces, IC, no benefits and want (sm) - Just sayin ....Why shouldn't they bid low? There is always someone who will work for a few bits less than the self-righteous I'm-too-good-for-thatters. http://forum.mtstars.com/184840.html Bringing this up from below, because I don't understand it. In this post, the poster mentioned the self righteous I'm ...

The Indians do not work on their holidays because it is against their religion. Well, working on Christmas is against mine, so I'm not working. ...

I have been testing all week. Some companies will not even discuss pay until you take their tests. Then, I waste my time taking these tests only to be offered 7 and 8 cpl. It is absolutely offensive to me to offer me that low pay. You want all of my years of experience, but only want to pay "newbie" rates. I am completely and wholeheartedly giving up on this profession. ...

Oracle does not reply to emails with questions. They evidently only want you to fill in the blanks at their website. I refuse to spend my valuable time testing only to find out they start you at 7 cpl or some other ridiculous rate. Can anyone tell me what they pay for an experienced IC MT? 0.09? 0.10? ...

That they will consider that you RESIGNED if you refuse to change. They are covering their slimy butts six ways to Sunday. ...

I am wondering when you started soliciting clients if you already had a platform in place or did you wait to see what the potential clients were already using. I want to start trying to get my own accounts as there have been a lot of practices open up near me recently, but not sure of the steps to take in the beginning. I am thinking of using Emdat Inscribe as I am already familar with it, but not sure if that is something I need to set up first or is that a waste if the cl ...

Just wondering, for those MTs who do now or in the past have had their own clients...if you had dictators whose dictation style was extremely fast, haphazard or overall just terrible to understand, would you ever contact them and ask that they slow down or clean it up a little? Am curious if you felt you had a right to request decent dictations to work with when you were your own boss. ...

Hi Everyone, Right now the company I work for hardly has any work. I am thinking about sending out a letter to local clinics and also maybe putting out an ad on craigslist for transcription work. Have you tried this? I have questions: What things do I have to consider? How do I charge people (I know I can do line count in INstantText and figure out line count and cost)-is 10 CPL a good place to start? Are there other costs I need to factor in? How about tax ...

Just thinking out loud here. I know many practices probably do their own outsourcing to MTs at home. Why not more? It must be cheaper for them with higher quality work, personalized service, etc. Some hospitals even hire MTs to work from home rather than use an MTSO. How can we, as the MT community, reach more clients/practices. Surely they have a liason in the office who handles the direction of their transcribed reports, in-house editing; someone who could do ...

I mean, I'm an IC, or whatever I'm called now since I'm doing VR.....there has been talk around the company that perhaps the providers don't even know their documents have been moved to VR. In reality, I think that this might ring true! Some of us have quit for ethical reasons, and I can say for certain my VR isn't getting any better with the ahhs and ands and everything else that seems to be in the dication that shouldn't be. After all, the VR doe ...

I am wanting to start getting my own clients again (haven't done that since I picked up and delivered, printed, etc.!!!) but know nothing about the dictation portion of it. How do you get an FTP site? Where do you go to get the dictation set up and be able to transcribe it? What other things do I need to do for that? Help! Thank you all :) ...

20 years ago, like a lot of us, I worked at home typing dictations from cassettes on a typewriter! Recently I was asked by a health care provider if I can do her dictation notes on her own program, using her own templates, send them to her printer from my computer, like is done with the national company I work for. How do I do set this up in this day and age? Can I download her program onto a thumb drive and put in my own computer? How do I get her templates into my ...

I am wanting to start my own MTSO and have my own clients. I need someone who has done this already to be sort of a mentor for me. If all you are going to say is "dont do it" or "it really sucks" or other stuff like that, please save it. I just need advice on how to get started, who makes the decisions in clinics and offices, and so on... Thanks in advance... MTdude ...

I have been offered a position with both. I have; however, in the past, had a position where the employer still owes me $6000. Does United pay and have the work? Does Nuance have enough work for me? I need full time work guaranteed income, like everyone else. Good luck to all out there! ...

shouldn't be held responsible for what MQ says. If MQ doesn't want the responsibility for correct reports, they shouldn't make the deals, instead of making deals and then underpaying MTs and putting all the responsibility on them. All MQ is after is the money, not the responsibility that goes with making the money. ...

Anyone have an idea of what MTSO client rates run? I'm thinking 18-22 cpl for acute care (depending on TAT) and 16-20 cents for clinic (depending on TAT). Do you think these rates are totally outrageous or about in the ballpark? ...

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 ...

Just how much profit are they making. I have no clue, 17 years ago it was 14-cents a line for a 50 character line. Or maybe somebody can give me a site where I can look it up myself. Thanks ...

This is the first time I've done this, and I'd like to offer a free trial. However, I can't do too much as I'm still working for an MTSO. Any suggestions on what would be a reasonable amount of work to do for free? Not sure if I should say something like maximum 10 letters, or maybe 1, 2, 3, days average work. I think the trial would be of mutual benefit. I'd get an idea of how difficult their work is and they could see the quality of my work. Would ...

I am looking for info regarding how MTSOs out there obtained their clients. Are there any websites that advertise vendors or is general marketing strategies the best way to go? I am starting out on my own and just wanted to ask a little advice. Thank you! ...

I was just wondering if I wanted to acquire a few clients on my own, what type of software do I need besides something like Express Scribe? Those of you who have your own accounts, what do you use? Thank you :) ...

Hello I was looking into using this Cloud Dictation system because it seems to mirror the Digital Dictate/Digital Delegate system commands so not a big change for the clients. Has anyone here been using this? The last posts I could find were from 2013 so just wondering. If not this system, any other system working? I have the older Digital Dictate system from NCH but can't seem to get ANY HELP OR QUESTIONS ANSWERED from them on to upgrade or not to upgrade. ...
