To NUisANCE Managers - Had it up to here

Posted: May 17, 2014

If you monitor this board, then you surely have a modicum of an idea of how unhappy we MTs are with your so-called management. "Exciting News" doesn't cut it. FIESA (a.k.a. FIASCO) is only something to demoralize and demean us. The Link is a waste of time. MT Week and its games, etc., is meaningless. When are you going to do the right thing and take note of what we've been saying to you all along? When people just don't care any more, when they just put in their time and ignore OT requests, don't check FIESA, and just plain can't wait until their shift is over, then something is drastically wrong. Please listen to what we are saying or you are going to end up losing more employees than you already are.

They wont do squat to improve anything. They have a plan - to run this company to the ground SM

taking every dime they can before it wrecks.

They simply do not care. Sad, because this could be a good company, money could keep coming in for everyone if they'd keep the MTs happy and the accounts would be better off and less stress all around for everyone.

Nope. Make life a living H**L for everyone involved while waiting for the company to shipwreck itself. You'd think life isn't easy for upper level management either, with this type of a raggedy-a$$ business plan, but apparently the money must make it worthwhile. They're going through more trouble this way than to just run the company decently the way it should be. You'd think all these business management types would have a brain one in their stupid heads and realize that.

It's a p-poor way to run a company, even while you're raping it financially and running it into the ground.

I wish there was a way for all of us to shut - these MTSOs down - all of them - sm

and make it illegal for these middleman-service businesses to even operate in the U.S. All they're good for is cheapening medical documentation, dumbing down what medical institutions will consider "acceptable" patient medical documentation.

The only product they create is POVERTY, and new food-stamp recipients. They create nothing, absolutely NOTHING, for the country nor its inhabitants. And most CERTAINLY not for its level of health care.

Other fields have service middlemen too, and they are equally as useless and poverty-productive.

It's time for these types of faux "businesses" to be seen for what it is - a CON GAME, and run them all out of town on a rail.

A lot of doctors are getting fed up with VR and all the nonsense. A lot of them are thinking about returning to the tried and true, some are already doing so, at least in my part of the country. If you are okay with doing office/clinic transcription rather than acute care (yes it is even more boring) then make some time for yourself, and write up a brochure about yourself, your skill set, what you do for your customer,etc., and mail or take this to your local physician offices as you have the time and resources to do this. I know how devastatingly broke you are, so just do a little at a time as you can afford it. You might end up with some work sooner than you think. By the way, the doctors will expect perfect transcription, they can get lousy transcription with VR. So, bill it high enough that you can afford to do an adequate job of proofing, as well pay your taxes, and still have enough to live on. Also factor in the cost of paying subs a living wage in your line rate. Please don't bother to do this if you are not determined to earn a decent living by charging enough. You are only hurting yourself as well as everybody else. Right now, I think the hospitals accounts are gone. Pay rates are such that skilled acute care MTs are at the bottom of the barrel instead of top where they belong. But there might be decently paid work locally for you if you make your mind to find it. What the heck, you really don't have anything to lose, do you?

Nasty Nuance does not care. Money is made - buying US companies to ship work to India

[ In Reply To ..]
That's the name of shady Nuance game. And the politicians have made it legal to ship American jobs and medical records off shore. They are all greedy crooks.

Nuance isn't running the company into the ground. It is transferring everything to India where work is done cheaper and top management makes more profit.

Instead of giving gift cards just to a select few, why not give all of us gift cards? We could sure use them on the measly pay we get. Instead, we get nothing acknowledging the hard work we all put in not even a card like some other companies gave their employees. Oh, but that would be doing the right thing wouldn't it? ...

Nuance, I would like to give you a huge congratulations. You have succeeded in taking a career that so many of us have loved and cherished and turned it into a complete nightmare. You have given us ulcers, headaches, depression, anxiety/panic attacks, a feeling of failure and worthlessness, anger, sadness, insomnia…shall I go on? Most of us wonder how we will feed our families, pay the bills, keep a home over our heads and just have overall peace of mind. Corpo ...

Seven days to go until retirement and I am so tempted to just not show up for the rest of the time. If they went a truly beaten down and demoralized MLS then they've got one in me. I have never worked for a company that treats its employees as badly as NUisANCE treats theirs. And they wonder why they can't keep anybody. Maybe if they'd treat people as human beings ... but no, that's too much to hope for. As long as I'm on a rant here, my int ...

I have had only good experiences with TT account managers. They have always answered my emails promptly and been very willing to be flexible with my scheduliing. AD has always taken the time to make personal phone calls to MTs when more info is needed or something didn't go through the system, to make sure they get paid on time. I'm sure they share our stress over the accounts going to EPIC. I just wanted them to know they are appreciated for all their hard wo ...

If any TSMs, Regional Managers or executives are reading posts on this site, I don't know how you sleep at night! We, as MLS', know exactly what is going on, even though you think we are stupid. The only reason you have implemented the "Patient Safety Compensation Plan" is to pay us less so Nuance can make more money, it has nothing to do with patient safety, it is corporate greed so STOP all the lies!!! Also, please save all the crap at the end of the "updates" ...

I was just offered a position at SS a couple days ago, but my experience with the recruiter was less than inviting. She was rude and very impersonal. If I were a company, I would want the first impression to be a great one. I accepted the position, but I'm really not sure I want to work there, if this is how you're treated BEFORE you're an employee. Anyone know how it is to work with managers, etc. or anything else about SS? ...

http://forum.mtstars.com/434118.html They are a significant part of the problem. Along with upper levels they possess no ethics and apparently also lack cartilaginous tissue in the C-T-L spines to stand up and say they have ethics and will not go along with the unethical/illegal BS upper level suggests/dictates to them. They have a choice and choose wrong. They could stand together in numbers and say NO. You think upper level is going to find enough people to replace ...

How would you feel if your superior/boss/CEO emailed you and stated there is nothing for you to do this week, so you won't be getting paid; HOWEVER, you must be available in case there is work, so make sure you sit there by the phone so we can call you if we need you and you better be available IMMEDIATELY. We expect work to be available next week and you can just cram in 80 hrs to make up for the lost week of work. How does that sound? What the hell is wrong with these companies promisin ...

Has anybody else noticed the managers or the "abbreviations of the day" are no longer readily available?

I read about this a lot, and really wonder why does a company over-hire? Why can't they start off with a few MTs so they can feel-out the account and number of jobs? Then, if needed, they can hire what they REALLY need. I was hired on for a new account and they obviously over-hired for it... we're really struggling with work, or lack thereof. I've adjusted my schedule three times too. Even with the addition of several other accounts, I'm sti ...

I personally know someone who works as a middle manager for Nuance, makes well over 50,000 and has had constant raises since being hired. From what she tells me she is very effective, but even the other middle managers who are not at all effective with huge make up costs and teams who fail audits constantly do not get terminated. Plus, they do not have to be MTs. They just sit in their home office and write rah rah emails to their team to keep them going and make sure they cove ...

If we think things are bad NOW with NJA and work flow ... just wait. Each Workflow Manager has only been given ONE "POD" so far but as of this week, they will each be given a SECOND POD to oversee, each POD having at least 200 employees. The Workflow Manager that I've been assigned to told me on the phone this morning that her mind-bending work load is about to DOUBLE and that she will be overseeing 400 employees. She said she hopes she didn't make a big mistake by ta ...

A clusterf%!@* has been created by the management team. Are they held responsible for MTs leaving the company or running out of work? How about the rest of the management?
