Recently found out that two Chicagoland hospitals who outsourced to Nuance are paying them a whopping 15 to 15.5 cents per line for VR. With this being an almost virtual world now and very little overhead, it is a terrible injustice for Nuance to pay their MTs only a fraction/peanuts of what they are getting paid.
While Nuance owners are laughing all the way to the bank, it is time for every Nuance MT to formulate a "get out of jail/Nuance" plan ASAP.
I was told this info by an insider who actually said that it would have been cheaper for the hospitals to have kept their own employees including paying them full benefits than to sign a contract with Nuance. They thought there were so smart and were going to save the hospital money! They are actually paying MORE. Hah!
