Major errors today - 5 in 1 hour a personal best!

Does anyone else run into this? I get all these major error reports from Fiesa, all of a sudden, one after another, with errors that I know, after 15 years of doing this job, I would not have made. I know with certainty that these errors would not escape me. Anyone else get this kind of BS? ...

I know these don't count towards bonuses etc but it still unnerves me to open my email nearly every day and seeing these stupid alerts with my percentage in the tank. Some of them I take full credit for others I dispute but it still shakes me up so therefore some of the mistakes I make is just because I am nervous about literally everything I type. ...

Never in the last year have I ever ever gotten 4 major errors in one report, I don't think I have ever gotten 4 in 3 or 4 months. They will never be able to convince me that something hasn't changed. I am being marked off for things that are completely ridiculous and some I don't think I even did. Wow - what a way to start my day - makes me really want to work hard for them. ...

Got 1 last night and 1 this morning. One I have to admit was definitely my error, the other bul &*&(&(. Hope the QA people choke on their bonuses. Have an interview today (non-MT) with benefits and decent pay. Tired of working so hard to perfect their SR program so they can jack us over either by sending it overseas or finding they need less and less of us as the program gets better (if indeed it ever does). Wish me luck. ...

Got email stating conference call this week for all of our "errors" we are making - what fun!! ...

My company has always invited us to create and store template dictations for common use by everyone. I've made many and been happy to share, and since they're good quality they're used by many, even some dictators to set up their own formal templates. It's always pleased me to be a team player, but, let's face it, this is only one more thing that allows my company to hire less skilled people and lower the line rates it pays me. Just BTW, I figure it costs me proba ...

I worked 7.18 hours today. I at breakfast at my desk, lunch at my desk. I got to transcribe 2 reports which came up blank for some reason? So, I just did the math, made 6.75 an hour. It makes me sick. Merry Christmas CEO and upper staff, hope the ghosts of Christmas past,present and future visit you tonight, not that it would do any good. To the rest of you, who are in the trenches like me MERRY CHRISTMAS, MAY THE NEW YEAR BRING US A BETTER LIFE WHERE WE ARE ACTUALLY APPRECIATED AND C ...

I note number of characters in a report, divide by 65 (per line), then divide that by hours worked. I can buy a whole gallon of milk with my morning's earnings! ...

Cannot get the voice to download all the way causing me to not finish report completely. ...

I get dinged for leaving out words like the, and others. I am now understanding that this is not the correct policy, that others are not getting critical error, major error, off one point for this. So, am I being singled out? Because I thought this was the norm. I'd like to know so that while I am hanging on every word and will continue to do so, I thought I was not the only one with this...thanks in advance for the update. ...

Okay, let's sum it up: 1. Imedx hid information on losing more than one account for months, this is a fact. 2. Number one above is confirmed by Imedx having an acct going to EPIC, and a few days later 3 accounts that we "do not have access to anymore" as stated by manager. 3. Number two above did not say we lost, or Nuance took back, etc., just "no access." 4. In other words, work shifted to cheaper folks, we get that. 5. Lack of any emails in 2 weeks regarding what is going on is abso ...

Hi:I am make incentive based on minutes, but I work on a system that lets me check how many lines and minutes I have typed in a day also. Just in case I have to get another job based on lines, I wanted to know what is the average amount of lines per hour or per 8 hour shift. Thanks for the advice in advance. MeL ...

I know none of us get paid by the hour, but I was just wondering if any of you have ever figured out just how much you earn per hour, based on a 40-hour week. I'm just trying to figure out where I fit in. I seem to be earning $16-18/hour give or take based on how my week goes. ...

I have been an IC for past 13 years with all local physician office accounts. As of July this year, I now have only one left due to the use of the EMR. While those of you are saying that EMR will not phase out transcriptionist..well that may be so, but in my experience it has already phased me out. The doctors have sent absolutely no further dictation since they began using this and they told me they do not plan to. So, I am now out of a job that I really depended on. Just giving my perspective. ...

I was just watching the news, and the all the job openings with average annual income. What I would like to know is this: Is any MT at MM or any other MTSO able to make a living wage? Please be honest. I for one am not evening breaking $1000 a month anymore, and at one time I was able to make at least $36,000 a year. Thanks ...

I'm just warning everybody that I received a "sales ad" for some pharmaceuticals in my personal email, with a return email address that specifically stated it was through [MTStars]****@****. so someone got my personal email address from this board, from someone on HERE, and not just by responding to a post, and sent me a link to selling medications. I never respond to any posting here through email, so no one has access to my email address except MTStars themselves. I did report it to MT ...

My transcription job was always paid by the hour. I was laid off and they recently offered me a temp position with them making $12.00 an hour. I was also offered a positon that pays 7.5 and 3.5 cpl. The $12.00 is employee status for a small local company I worked for over 9 years. The other is an IC position. Do you think I would make more with the $12.00 an hour or the per line production rate? I have never done production by line work so I'm not sur ...

I am getting ready to enroll this week with Andrews for medical coding, and am really looking forward to this new challenge and learning opportunity!! After 30 years as a state employee, I'm actually switching careers. With that being said, I was just interested to find out "where" people like to study in their homes when studying 4-5 hours a night and working assignments. Do you sit at a desk with the computer in front of you, or do you use the dining room table, a comfortable ...

I am still getting out of this biz and going back to school. I have panic with agoraphobia, but I cannot keep waiting for my SSI to be approved. I have already been denied once. The therapist I am seeing gave me hope and for that I am very thankful! I found out I can go to a 2-year school and have my bills taken care of. Thank God for that! ...

Okay, I am still a bit confused. I admit I have been spoiled by being an IC for years. I have a chance to pick up a couple of side accounts, but after talking to them they just think they can dictate into something at my home and I will magically be able to hear their dictation. I am totally not well versed with all these computer programs. Can someone explain to me whether it would be worth getting some kind of program to be able to do this? It seems costly to be able to ...

Okay you hate MM and you think this is just another trick they are pulling. Then don't apply for the coding training. But please do not discourage other people from going for it. This could turn out to be a great opportunity for them. ...

and have to take time off at the last minute? And have no PTO time? Will I be fired? ...

I have decided I will not accept any MT transcription rates lower than 9 cpl (in an employee position) or 11 cpl (in an IC position). For medical editing, I'm not going to work for lower than 50% of the transcription rate. For me, it will just not be worth it to do it for less. I am willing to go work inhouse and even do other work rather than to accept line rates lower than this. I see one keeps putting up the same ad with 8 cpl for MT work and 3 cpl for editing a ...

When is it that our private information is so sacred. How about posting online all my ailments. Does it really matter? Is it not coincidental that AAMT in their day, and others wanting $$, happened to push HIPAA through at a time when no one really cared? It is a scam, just a department builder of jobs. When is it that our ailments are so secret? ...

I understand you're worried about posting too much information, and that's a good thing, but we really do need a little more information than simply the s/l word/term you're having trouble with. If you feel comfortable giving the sentence, that's great. If not, then maybe some context like whether the term is an instrument, a body part, a medication, or a disease, the report type (H&P, op, etc.) , what part of the body it's pertaining to, whethe ...

Just wondering......I am an IC right now, but I have the opportunity to pick up some extra work from my own personal physician. He was asking if I could type some of his more complicated PFT reports that he does not want to do on the EMR program they have. I have not done any personal account work for a very very long time. Back when I had accounts....we would go pick up the cassette, print out the stuff and take it back. I was wondering if anyone out there has any person ...

No conscience, this LG, hired to slash, and slash she is good at! l shudder to recount all the I.D. numbers I've seen come and go from her matrices. If you were just switched to one of her accounts, beware, there is only one reason for that! She is on the AB (COM) team last I knew. ...
