FIESA - score was falling over the last two weeks - tired typist


Posted: Oct 02, 2014

Really look into your FIESA because I could not figure out why my score was falling over the last two weeks or so. I got to looking and it is not even me. I have been being charged with errors and graded on another person's mistake. I was very worried and could not figure out what was going on. I let my TSM know and I will spend hours now trying to get everything reversed. It is worth it though because we are graded on this not only by ourselves but also as a team through your TSM. It just makes me very irritated. Make sure it is your site they are grading, i.e., the hospital and even if it is your site, make sure it is actually you who typed it!

I have thought that happened to me before, but I had no way of checking. How did you find out. I'm not that good at Fiesa. My previous accounts really didn't use it, so I haven't used it that much till now.

I have had the same thing happen to me. I keep track of all the jobs I do by writing the date and job numbers down in a notebook. If I switch accounts, I write that account on the next line and keep going. When I get a Fiesa booboo, I check to make sure it is on my list. This also helps me to make sure that the reports are being counted. I have had a lot that are not counted and have to get paid for. They will find any way to not pay us.

How do you check if your not getting paid for reports - CINDY

How do you check if you got paid for certain reports. Is is when you do ctrl x and then the dates come up and you look at all the reports from the previous week?

Before I exit out of an account for the day, I will do the Alt/X and make sure that the reports that are in there match with what I have as far as the number I did. I also write down the lines that it shows. These lines should match up with what is in WebClock when we sign off our timecards and what is on our paychecks. If I see a report missing, I do some investigation and then report to my TSM regarding it so I get paid for the report.

In what screen would you do an ALT-X? I'm not familiar with that, and have never been able to see my line counts in the other program. New hire, lots of hiccups, only on my 3rd week. Thank you.

At the top of each report above your score like 99% it will give the hospital and the site code.

Low Score On FIESA
May 09, 2013

My FIESA scores are VERY low this quarter with a lot of points being taken off for errors. Has anyone been in a situation where at the end of the quarter they had a score that was below 98% and what happened? Is that instant termination? This is astonishing to me as I will be here for 4 years and never have had low scores ever and have never been in this predicament before. Thank you for any replies. ...

Low Score On FIESA With New Grading System
Jun 24, 2013

Hey guys..have a question. This quarter is over this week and with the new grading system they have implemented for post-audits my QA score is quite bad at about 96% to 97%. I have never had a low score like this ever in my career and have always been between 98.5% to 99%.  Have any of you experienced a low final score for a quarter before and if you have what happened to you? Did they have QA work with you or was it like instant termination. This new grading system is so very stressful :( ...

Bottom Keeps Falling Out
Aug 23, 2011

I'm surprised to see how each week seems to bring new job postings on here for lower and lower wages, even for IC's, where some have posted effective line rates (once you figure in a minimum of 15% for withholding) of 2.5 to 6 cents per line. It's like there is a game of chicken going on.  Employers keep lowering the bar on pay, and MTs keep migrating to the few jobs that still pay decently.  Eventually something has to give - either there will be no one left doing the ...

Hello everyone.   This is kind of a silly question but I was wondering, what do some of you do when you are working and you get sleepy ??  I find that this is a constant problem for me.  I drink coffee,  pop and whatever to boost myself but find that it just has to go away on its own.   I would really appreciate any tips some of you may have found helpful. Thank you so much ! ...

What Do People Do For The Falling-asleep Backside?
Mar 10, 2011

Apparently I have finally completely squished down the (fairly substantial) padding on my chair, with my even-more-substantial weight.... It's a good chair otherwise, and considering what we get paid these days, I am not interested in replacing it. So, who can make some suggestions for something to put between me and the seat? Height will not be an issue; my desk is high, and the chair is a highly-adjustable drafting stool. TIA.  :) ...

Well.,...score Below 98 .
Dec 20, 2013

I guess I am screwed.  In all my years I have never had this many "Major Errors".  Guess I have just been stupid my whole life and didn't know it.  Score below 98 and since they have been monitoring me quite a lot the last week or so I imagine they are done with me for the quarter.  Some of these errors are errors, but REALLY?  If/of is kind of a typo in my book.  SR had it one way and I did fail to catch it, but really had no change in context. How can they ex ...


Score Below 99%

My score for the quarter was 98.3%.  I will probably get fired.  All my working life (25 years) I always scored excellent on quality.  When I look at the post audit though, I am mostly at 100%.  It makes me feel kind of worthless.  ...
