Is everyone getting a lot of CARE registration emails? - ...


Posted: May 29, 2015

I'm getting a lot of CARE registration emails that I didn't receive before.  Honestly, I am off the grid due to crappy dictators and sound quality and see absolutely no benefit in attending a CARE Boost session just to basically be told I suck and should work faster......

Is this to replace their ENRICH program that was a waste of time and energy! - sm

Is this stuff we are suppose to do on our own time again.

Doesn't say anything about compensation - ....

They can pay me for it or I ain't doin' it!!!!!!!

I don't know because I only open emails - when I have to

I have no desire to give myself a heart attack or raise my blood pressure further (by reading the "ERROR" emails), so I avoid looking at emails except a few times a week when I have to.

I personally have not taken any CARE sessions. By their very descriptions they do not seem entirely kosher. Any good MT already knows "tips and tricks for higher production" and so forth. Also the tips and tricks to avoid persecution by FIESA, but that doesn't mean you never make a mistake. That would be computer-generated point and click, artificial intelligence, which I guess Nuance are also trying to replace us with (as well as MTs in India and other low wage countries).

It is a fallacy that CARE, ENRICH, or any of these things can help up your line count very much OR avoid the FIESA Nazis, unless of course you are entirely new to transcription, in which case I have to say I am so very sorry you have to experience MT this way.

It is simply another way to take $ from those who do the work, MTs, to those that check us (QA/QC), write boring webinars, courses, and "educate" us, etc., and further Nuance's end game of what? All of us US MTs quitting and complete offshoring taking place? Not sure what really, but definitely whatever it is it involves making us MTs into as close to minimum wage workers as they can get away with. All of us.

Waste of time - Heh

The people writing this stuff have no recent MLS or QA/QC experience so this is all theory, much of it old. I cannot waste my time being a rehashed experiment when what I need is a paycheck.

Why Do I Have To Pay Another Registration Fee For Wavplayer Use?
May 15, 2011

I bought my wavplayer pedal from bytescribe some time ago- maybe 5 years ago and have registered it 3 times due to wiping out my computer because of viruses. Well, I recently went to register it again and the company (bytescribe) wants to charge me a fee of $169. I can not believe this! I'm pleading with the company to waive the reg fee once again.  They have really gotten stingy on their products and how many times you're allowed to register them. I don't think this is fair! ...

Another Sad Option For Medical Care Is Charity Care. Work With The People

...bills. Most Saint hospitals and others actually operate as non-profits, and for what they are screwing us over in taxes unpaid, they can afford to help out folks with their bills and still give their CEOs generous stock options and obscene salaries! But, you have to ask for this after your visit, treatment, x-ray, or ER visit. ASK for help if you need it. It is not our fault that suits are in charge of medical care in this country.  ...

I Have Had It. I Get Emails The Other Day
Sep 21, 2010

that we cannot send reports with more than 3 blanks through on TWO of the accounts I work on.  Right now, I have one of the worst dictators on one of those accounts.  She is ESL and she whispers.  To top it off, someone is standing very close to her running a VACUUM CLEANER. I CAN'T HEAR her because she is whispering and the vacuum is running.  So, yay me.  I will probably have more than 3 blanks because of all this and will have to send it to QA even though they ...

I work every single other holiday there is all year long, hoping to take off Tgiving and Xmas.  I work NY Eve, NY, Easter, 4th of July, Labor Day, Memorial Day, etc.  But even though there's never any work on those 2 major holidays, apparently now we MUST work one of them, i.e., ruin all family plans just to get NJA all day anyway.  ...


When I Get Those Emails Saying
Dec 07, 2014

I feel like saying: Hey, no thanks, I already have 4 accounts, 2 of which I have no interest in. Here's an idea, how about you get all those people on my accounts, which I have been doing for years, off of them, so that I can have my work back? How about you get them off my accounts and give THEM the new accounts? I have enough trouble making decent line counts at all because: (a) no work because overstaffed on my primary. (b) secondary and tertiary accounts unfamiliar and pages of new ...

Emails Monitoring How Much We Do

Well, I will not be reading these emails calculating how much time we are working and "goofing off."  They will only make me less motivated and quite frankly angry.  I am not a robot, there are times after a long difficult report that I have to step away from the computer to give my brain a few minute break.  As long as I do the required long count and then some, I will not concern myself with this emails. ...

Watch Your Emails
Oct 03, 2013

Just recently our QC sent out an email to an MT in our group for a HIPAA error and blind copied all the MT/MME in the BOB.  This poor MT would never have known unless others came forward and reported that they got this email in error. Make sure that if you get an email it is only coming to you.  I really hope she files a complaint with HR for shaming her in front of her peers.  Don't look, don't share apparently does not apply to anyone other than MT/MME. ...

Nuance Emails
Feb 15, 2015

Many typical Nuance emails boil down to this: Thank you so much for all you do. We appreciate you so much. We are a team. You are so important to the care of the patients. We really need your help, many jobs out of TAT. Please help. We appreciate you so much. Yet, if they appreciate MTs so much, why do they pay minimum wage and, even worse, require this ridiculous thing called MUP? I didn't know being an MT was a volunteer job. ...
