MT/MLS advocacy groups? - HalfEmpty


Posted: Jan 18, 2013

Does anyone know if there are any advocacy groups or something for us out there? I've been seriously screwed over by Nuance in such a huge way that I can't even describe it in the word count most places allow. I was hoping that there was someone, some group, anybody out there that we can go to in our profession for help or advice or whatever. Any help would really be great. Thanks.

What is the nature of the issue? - 007

If you can say what the issue is, someone here could probably guide you to someone/agency to contact for help. Don't know that there is such a thing as MT advocacy group as such. Good luck!

why not contact the attorneys from the Transcend - case?

I am sure they would love to help!

Pay the dues and get some action. There is power in numbers, and since a lot of people think ADHI is too expensive (not me--I am also a member), look into this. Service Employees International Union.

I would join a union - In a hearbeat!

Maybe Just A Plan To Recycle Groups Of 60 To
Mar 11, 2014

they can't pass the QA of the apprenticeship and conveniently there are no more MT positions to move to. Would definitely save them money than having a mass layoff and their unemployment account rated accordingly. You never know. The whole timing of this new "program" just seems so suspect. I really hope this isn't the case and those applying and hoping to get in do find it a positive experience, but I think there are too many red flags and the whole timing is suspect, as if it wer ...


Online Support Groups For MTs
May 08, 2014

Reading this site has confirmed what I already knew--that medical transcriptionists everywhere are being squeezed, cut, marginalized, denigrated, demoralized by the current trends in our industry.   This has taken a major toll on my emotional, as well as financial health, as it has for many of you.  The lack of control we now experience in our work lives exacts a high price from us.   With that said though, discussing all the minutia of what's wrong with our employer, dicta ...


Professional/Social MT/Editor Groups In New York City
Dec 20, 2010

Hello, I am a medical transcriptionist and, lately, a medical editor who lives in New York City. I would like to meet fellow MTs/editors in my area for professional and social purposes. I am having a bit of trouble finding data on the Internet that points out MT groups (or even just individuals) in the NYC metro area. I was wondering if anyone had any information about such groups in NYC. Please let me know. Or, if you are an individual MT/editor who just wants to reach out and say "hell ...


Good Source Of Labs For H&Ps That Are Grouped In Proper Groups
May 24, 2013

Does anyone have a good source of labs for H&Ps that are grouped in proper groups so I can quickly look and know when to put the period and start another group?  I'm looking for a quick reference sheet or something that I can refer to without having to go look up the things that I don't remember. I'm trying to learn them all but there are just so many that it's overwhelming at times.  I'd even take a Word document if you have created your own references.    ...
