For all potential candidates. Truth in recruitment advertising

There is very little quality work available. The pay is low and the Dictaphone platform is not good. You will get the bottom of the barrel MT work. Even that will run out because Nuance overstaffs accounts. I am out of work now and yet I got an e-mail offering a bonus for referrals of MTs to Nuance. It's not a good company to work for. There are lots of smoke and mirrors offered by Nuance recruiters like bonuses that are impossible to get because of ...

After reading about this horrific layoff, I notice this: MModal is conducting a Recruitment drive exclusively for Medical Transcriptionists, Direct Uploaders, Direct Posters, Quality Analyst & Editors at Bubhaneshwar. The recruitment drive is scheduled from 6th April to 8th April 2013. Interested candidates willing to appear for the drive need to send their applications / resumes to vijaykumar.dharmaji@mmodal.com or durgaprasad.nandikolla @mmodal.com for a scheduled ...

After weeks and weeks of research, and reading tons of forums and reviews, speaking to advisors at on-line colleges, receiving multiple packets by mail, etc..... I believe Career Step's medical coding program or AHIMA would be the BEST possible option for anyone trying to break into this field from home, learning at their own pace and the best affordability. Please does anyone here beg to differ? I am looking for constructive criticism as well as any positives on these two o ...

Hey Everyone! I'm sure these questions have been asked a thousand times but I'm unsure of how to navigate this forum to find answers. So here's the skinny. I'm a recent graduate of Cometology school and I'm having a very hard time finding employment due to my own poor timing. We are military and my husband is due for orders in about 8 months. So I've been looking into Medical Transcription and Editing with hopes that I would be able to take m ...

I heard they were laying off some people due to changing over to VR and the need for fewer MTs. I expect that is the way things are going to head these days. Headin' South myself! ...

Just got an email that said I was put on a wait list. I will know by close of day on Wednesday if I got a slot. ...

For those of us who have found ourselves as Nuance employees by virtue of company buyouts, hospital outsourcing, or something other than traditional methods of job hunting, we have all suffered a major life loss, loss of income, loss of security, loss of self-esteem, loss of pride in work, and on and on and on. And, certainly in my case, representatives of Nuance told half-truths, made promises that could never be achieved, and decieved me, leading me into a miserable situation. There is ...

It has been suggested to me by my CCM that I apply for MME position, stating I will definitely make more $$$. My gut says no I won't but I have nothing to back that up. Any first-hand experience out there to confirm or negate my intuition? ...

I used Schedule Source for about a year when they were testing it. It's one of those "benefits" they keep talking about. The problem is, if you swap you will be in somebody else's cesspool - getting unfamiliar accounts for which you have to read maybe multiple CPs and get reports where you may have to leave QA markers and spend extra time researching. It's also a mechanism for MTs to dump shifts where they know they will get a specific crummy account/dictat ...

Now we know how they feel about us with their new and exciting contest - Biggest LOSER contest. (Of course a correction was sent out so it now reads biggest producer, but the first e-mail tells it all.) This is another sucker game to try to get everyone to work longer and harder to make their horrible program sound like it works, but it that suxs no matter how you look at it. Of course, we all know the winners before it even starts since there are a few low class trashy team le ...

Saw this in an online article on how to work at home: Fast typer? Become a transcriber.Anyone with solid typing experience—legal secretaries, executive assistants or simply those with quick fingers—can work from home as a transcriber. Some companies offer very specific work (such as transcribing legal documents only), while others pair you with assignments that match your expertise and job background. Salary: Payment is by page or an hourly rate; approximately $10 per hour. For more ...

The truth is KS is being sued for not paying overtime. KS does not have time records and that is why it is being implemented now. I myself know overtime pay was not offered for anyone taking extra hours on my account. I also have e-mails to that effect. KS has not always paid overtime and if it was given it was to a select few or favorites. At one time gift cards were being given in lieu of overtime on certain accounts, which does not make up for the overtime m ...

The taped call has been released and while the information about the pay rate was not entirely inaccurate, it left out the rest of the story. Graduate/Radiology 0.0750/0.0375 (0.0425 on some platforms) Clinic 0.08/0.04 (0.0850/0.0450 on some platforms) Acute 0.0850/0.0413 (0.0875/0.0463 on some platforms) Incentive is based on QA/QC and production (tiered production and 99% which is what I was told when I was hired) but is biweekly instead of quarterly. ...

Took me quite awhile to figure this out. You need 2 MT jobs because they all overhire to keep many more employees less busy to pay less. In my day, you kept your 2nd job quiet, but what is the way to do it now? Is it good or bad to be looking for a 2nd part-time job, do you tell them. Is there anyone who left the first job to go full time with the 2nd one or switched them? And is it better to go IC in the 2nd job because of flexibility? I sound pretty dumb! ...

I was contacted by a company wanting to interview by chatting. I did all that, and it sounded so great. Set your own hours, work as much as you want, etc. All I had to do to get started was pay $295 for the software they use. I did some fast Google searches in another window and decided not to. They pointed out that as an Independent Contracter, I was responsible for my own equipment. I pointed out that I bought my own hardware, which is almost universall ...

I've had a job offer with a transcription company..however, my problem is I'm required to have MS Word, version 2007 or 2010,,,no student/teacher/starter or trial editions....and I've gone to Best Buy, E Bay and Amazon. The cheapest I have found to dowload it is $300 !! That's not happening....so, is there a less expensive way ??? If not, I'm faced with turning down this job offer. HELP !! ...

Actually, several truths about Precyse that current or prospective employees should be aware of: 1. Recently, an entire group of employees was laid off who had been there for years and had been great employees. I was one of these people. The official company line is something like "Processes have become so efficient that we no longer need nearly as much staffing as we have had in the past." The truth is that the company is pushing to move all work over 2 hour TAT to Indi ...

I have worked for 20+ years with two companies and had good reviews and made good money. No problems with meeting production. Left one of the big 2 companies last January after pay cuts, nothing nasty, I just kindly and sincerely expressed my opinion why I was leaving. Since then I've applied with 3 or 4 other companies, was told by one I was on *do not hire list*, but was never given a reason why. Is there something I can do here? I'm a good employee and ...

I've been coming here for years. For many years it was only the poorly trained MTs who complained about not doing well. Anyone who had good training and good skills, sometimes learned on the job, which isn't practical now, but good skills at any rate, did well. The times have changed. While I used to categorize the complainers as neer-do-wells because they lacked ambition, accuracy, and training, that just isn't the case anymore. The employers have beat MTs down so that they can ...

How is Inscribe to work for. Do they hire IC or just employees. I know we have talked about this before on here but just wanted to see if anyone was hired recently that would have an opinion on them. I have gotten several emails from them regarding employment and have not pursued that. ...

Hi, I wondered if some of you who have your own accounts or who have had your own accounts could give me some information. I have been asked if I would like a part-time dermatology account as an independent contractor in my town. They said I needed my own transcription software with ability to provide itemized report with invoices. I know I could use Express Scribe, but what would I need for the itemized report with invoices. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but would l ...

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.& ...

One can feel so beaten up and degraded. So much to know and for so little pay. Doc's get things to go faster and their pay is not cut. Difficult dictators don't have to take a pay cut, yet we get a cut in production and a cut in QA if we don't understand them. Are the docs even aware of Account Specifics? If transcription departments are not in-house any longer, who is making the picky rules? If you cannot put qhs, then why doesn� ...

I have the knowhow, just not the creativity. Although I'm just probably being hopeful/optimistic, I think if more regular folks know where there medical records are going, the errors that are allowed to get by, and who sees all their personal information, that things would change. In reality, I know this would not make a smidge of difference. Everything is controlled by corporations with no standards and money these days. They all have enough money to just w ...

Have any of you had the feeling you weren't getting callbacks from employers you applied with because of your age? I've been getting that feeling, and I thought that discrimination based on age, among other things, was illegal. So of course, the answer would be to just not fill in your date of birth, right? Well, lately I've applied at a few places where the ONLY way to apply was online. I had actually called them because I wanted to either come in and fill out ...

So I graduated in February and began the job hunt. Finally I receive one call back from a local company. To date I have attended two seperate interviews. The second time I was supposed to test but the computer was not working so a couple of weeks later they schedule testing at one of the transcriptionist house. I test and the computer freezes up. Luckily the test is recovered the next day and sent to the boss for review. Get another call today, and am told that ...
