Didn't he say "nothing would change" in our acquisition phone calls - Miss Accentus


Posted: Oct 28, 2014

We would work the same he said.  Lies all lies.  One of my exclusives uploads throughout the day, the others all at once at the end of the day or their last patient.  How I am suppose to cover this in 4 hours from time of dictation and only work part time?  Did anyone record the transition to Nuance calls?  I'd love to play them back now.  **insert nasty language here**

All buyouts the same. Nothing changed at the - moment. Evenutally that

changes. Some acquisitions take longer. Depends on the customer. You don't need to worry about covering in 4 hours. The pool will be opened up and no report will sit more than 30 seconds. Welcome to Nuance! We've all been through it (those of us who arrived through acquisitions at least).

We heard the same little "nothing will change" - s/msg

speech from the CEO of Acusis when they took over Digital Records Corp. Same great big LIE as the one you heard. It never changes with these companies.

Why are you surprised? This is said at all buy-outs so bought out - management wont have to think SM

about what will REALLY happen to their MTs. So bought out management can delude themselves into thinking the buy out is a good thing for everybody, which, of course, it is not. Telling these lies to the bought out management is just a way to sooth their minds.

It fits right there with the only thing bought out management really hears, which is "save money." I think if bought out management was told this will save you money but the MTs are the one that will get the short end of the stick, they would still go for the buy out, but "maybe" they would insist on a better deal for their MTs. Maybe not, though. But this way, they can ease their own minds and tell themselves this is good for everybody.

If your bought out company was another MTSO, they knew this was all a lie. If you came from a bought out hospital, send an open letter to all the departments telling the truth of the buy out. You will still be bought out but at least then management could no longer lie to themselves.

Pls check employee handbook, no recording of meetings allowed sm - acuteMLS

they added that specifically when people were trying to download a recording of a web meeting over a year ago.

There's nothing wrong with giving out general, non- - specific info. s/m

I've done that in the past with no consequences, even though I'm sure they knew it was me. Who cares, anyway? The likelihood that most of us will still be in the MT field by this time next year is slim to none.

Is Anyone Else Annoyed At All The Phone Calls From Schools?
Mar 11, 2010

You can't get some of the schools to stop calling you even after you tell them you've enrolled with another school and graduated, and have a job.  Is anyone else offended by the high-pressure tactics?  If a school has to keep calling and offering discounts and specials, that's a red flag, or is it just me?  I got my training years ago and I still can't get them to go away.  You expect that from those cheesy sales people trying to sell you whatever, but th ...


Command Health - So Many Phone Calls

So many phone calls, very pushy, rushed me to complete paperwork and software training, said my account would be VR, great bonuses, potential for 5.5 cpl, blah, blah, blah.  They called right before the day I would officially start to inform me that the account for which I was hired miraculously had no work left...an account I was told was swamped during phone interview.  They offered me a new account and everything discussed in our phone interviews (both with supervisor and HR) was completel ...

Nuance's Acquisition Of Webmedx

Anyone out there with any additional information about how the QA folks will be handled? I'm a former Webmedx'er and a new (yet to start working) Nuance employee, so am ve ...

For Any Potential New Nuance Acquisition
Jun 21, 2014

Every time there is a hospital or clinic acquisition, those "acquired" MTs will be crammed onto existing accounts as their own account/work types become more streamlined and less available as more and more of it is done more efficiently with voice wreck and 3 shifts of people to do the work. Think of it like when a larger dog moves into a pen already crowded with too many dogs. All the pre-existing dogs have to scooch over yet again (exist on less) to make room for the new dog in the cage.& ...

Tired Of Waiting For Calls That Never Come.
