Another thing that ticks me off with Nuance.... - mt2


Posted: May 24, 2012

I'm on Escription.  Now they've changed the header so it fills my screen.  I have to ALT-shift-E to get to the report.  If there is a doctor's name given and I don't know how to spell it, instead of being able to see the header info, I have to go back and write down the firicken name because yoiu cannot copy and paste in this crap.   Before, I could leave the header alone and I'd have about 3 inches at the bottom to start typing or editing.   This is time consuming.

It is a problem with header, I agree, but having worked on Beyond TXT with - oldmt

Transcend, is is better on Escription. In Beyond TXT, you have to toggle all over the place to fill in header information, like 3-4 different screens. At least it is all on one page except for copies with Escription. The copy and paste issue just ticks me off-period! It just causes extra work and is stupid. Yeah, I know it is because of HIPPA, which they shove down our throat too, so we know NOT to copy certain things for pete's sake.

Yeah, I know I spelled HIPAA wrong above so you spelling police don't have to correct me, just - oldmt

It's just 1 more thing that pissed me off about this job. - mt2

As long as MTSOs have people who will do this job, they don't care about anything that will help us produce. Happy workers are better producers and don't go bitching about their job.

Huh? Header filling screen? 3 inches at bottom for typing? - See if tech support can help. Escription

JUST ONE THING, NUANCE...
May 24, 2012

If you honestly do value your MTs, instead of falling all over yourselves with "thank you for all you do" and telling us how integral we are in the EHR field, the knowledge and accuracy we must possess, etc., ad nauseaum, please, at the very least, reinstate our WMX pay or, ideally, give us back our pay plus a cost of living stipend comparable to most other large and humane megacorporations. Could YOU support yourselves on our pay? Try our job for one pay period. Could you afford your rent/ ...


Same Thing At Nuance As M*Modal?
Apr 04, 2013

I'm in shock about all the layoffs at M*Modal this morning!  I'm sure everyone else is too.  I'm scared/worried the same thing might happen to Nuance now.  I see job postings all the time for both companies.  It's crazy how they hire all these people and then layoff a bunch of people.  I'm curious to know how many people in total got laid off.  Does anyone else see this coming at Nuance?  ...


The Saddest Thing About Nuance
Apr 14, 2013

Nuance certainly has its shortcomings, but I think the saddest thing about this company is how they forced otherwise honest, decent people into being complicit in their deceit.  Before Nuance bought out my old company, I had the pleasure of working with some very good managers.  They were upfront, compassionate and understanding.  When the merger happened, however, they were put in a position of lying to us all.  I still recall the conference calls in which they claimed the ...

One More Thing!
Mar 11, 2010

Just one more thought.  I have never, ever, known anyone who has left Medquist or Spheris and regretted it.  They may bounce back and forth just to get by, but in the long run, when they are finally finished, they are finished.  For all of those MTs who don't want to start over, please don't take that attitude.  I did and it only got worse and when I did change it wasn't that bad at all.  Again, could it get any worse?  ...

I Did The Right Thing It Seems
May 02, 2010

Now I know I did the right thing in not only leaving the Q but leaving the field altogether.  I had another physical last week and my blood pressure was back down to 120/70, and my doctor was very happy when he learned I had quit. They wasted no time in sending me labels to ship the computer back, though.  Oh well.. they don't want the monitor, or mouse, or keyboard, so I'm keeping those! ...

Urine welkenton?  Not sure of spelling, since I'm not sure it's really a word.  They could also be saying welkington.  That's what the dictation sounds like and I've listened to it several times on numerous days.  Can't find a reference to it anywhere and I've tried many variations.  Wondering if it's a really old term or if I'm completely misunderstanding.   Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! ...


One More Thing Before I Go
Nov 23, 2013

I do believe now that they are starting to target those of us who were making 10/6.  In the past, on my old accounts, I was audited no more than once a month.  If I failed an occasional audit, they would wait another month to see how I did on that one and since I always passed, no action was taken.  There was also no action after I took more than the allowable time off.  Then, at the beginning of November, I was moved to another BOB.  After being on the account for less ...

And Here's One Other Thing!
Apr 01, 2015

Just had a doctor dictate "potassium 40 mg," (should have been mEq) and then further down, "Levemir 40 mg" (should have been units). If I had not left blanks for them, that would have been 6 points off. It also compelled me to use my allotment of blanks for that report! But they, of course, do not get penalized for their mistakes. On the other hand, our pay is docked. There is a double standard here that needs to be changed. ...

OMG! This May Just Be The Most Annoying Thing
Oct 20, 2010

that I have had in a dictation, and I am sure that the dictator (PA-C)  is annoyed as well.  It's always annoying when she chitty-chats with the "girls in the office" while dictating, but in this dictation, one of the girls is mocking back everything the dictator says and continues to do so, after a little chuckle from dictator each time, to the point where the dictator finally has to tell her that this is important, it is for an attorney and she cannot mess it up.  ...
