India Outsourcing Article from Yahoo News

A commenter said that to work in the US, the foreign doctor has to intern in the States. I have to research if that is true. Anyone know? ...

Totally made me LOL this morning, especially the "You get to decide your own hours" line. I cut and pasted this section of the article but the full report can be found here: http://education.yahoo.net/articles/flexible_careers_that_pay.htm?wid=1 Career #4 - Medical Transcriptionist Medical transcriptionists listen to and transcribe dictated recordings made by doctors and other health care professionals. As a medical transcriptionist, you would need to understand medical terminol ...

According to Yahoo: Have you not heard? It's the 21st century. Threats and power plays just do not cut it anymore (and they were always a terrible way to manage). Yes, you pay people's salaries but that doesn't mean you're their lord and master. You are their leader, however. Leaders lead by inspiring, teaching, encouraging, and, yes, serving their employees. Good leaders never need to threaten. If you really want to motivate people, consider giving them a stake in th ...

On numerous occasions over the past year I was told by my CCM that the reason they are outsourcing to India is because there is a shortage of qualified MTs because the average age of an MT is 55 and they are starting to retired. Like the infamous ***** and is ridiculous claim about 650 lph on ASR, that MTs have an IQ of about 6. ***** Do not name/identify individuals. Moderator ***** ...

I have been doing transcription for almost 2 decades, pretty soon my children in their early 20s will be making more money than I am, made decision to go back to school in my 40s for a new career, no choice. Clip from article. "US corporations justify their offshore operations as essential to gain a foothold in emerging Asian markets. The Hira brothers believe this is self-delusion. “There is no evidence that they will be able to outcompete local Chinese and Indian companies, ...

Forgive me if this topic has been covered and/or beat to death, but were most of you aware that not only does Nuance outsource some/a good portion of the work to India, but that Nuance India actually outsources their work to other companies? It is one thing that they're sending it oversees in the first place, but then once it goes to another company, and potentially another one after that if they're anything like US companies... I have an issue with that. This makes me so sick! ...

Just like there was with the Transcend/Nuance merger? I find this quite interesting. ...

I was looking for this post and can't find it anywhere????? ...

Good morning, In your browser type in india.com and you will get "The Economic Times", one of India's newspapers. Interesting. What is even more interesting is to put in CBay up in the search bar (top right side) and watch what comes up. More information on CBay, but from India's newspaper perspective. Interesting to say the least. Always good to get an objective opinion!! ...

"These big companies can attract customers by selling at cost prices. That means people here are going to lose jobs. Shops like ours will be hit the most," Mr Sethi said. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? ...

I read a post here referencing an article about MM building a new facility and hiring hundreds of Indian nationals by the end of this year. Could someone please send me that link or article so I can print it for the unemployment office so I can apply for retraining? or at least look into retraining? THANKS ...

I am not sure if tihis is the right place to post this, but I used to ask questions there all the time. Now just recently I went on there and could not believe all the profanity and inappropriate subjects they let people post there. It is really awful and I am shocked to see some things that are passed up for censoring. People call each other jerks and bigoted racists all the time. I am wondering where are their moderators and why is no one doing anything to stop thi ...

I applied for a job on mtjobs.com. I received an email for an interview via yahoo. They want to deposit $$ in an account for me to buy "supplies/software/etc" so I can start my MT job with them. Has anyone ever heard of this? I'm sensing scam...... ...

Suddenly now I have to sign in every time all day long on My Yahoo, even though the box is checked to keep me signed in for two weeks. Anyone know how to fix this? It's a PIA to keep signing in over & over. No reply from Yahoo when I wrote them (surprise, suprise!) ...

Everybody leave Medquist....go get other work -- working at McDonald's pays more and has better benefits - at least you get to eat. And see how well India does all the transcription -- they can't do it -- we do the hard work and they get the cream. We are sitting her dying with their bad machines and bad dictators. Let them have it -- they will corode. ...

Or maybe it's just me? ...

ridiculous pay rate of $1.30 per line. Just beware that is you respond to these ads, there is a good chance they are a scam. Check MTStars archives for postings on these scam ads. ...

If it wasn't for outsourcing, we wouldn't have jobs. The hospitals are outsourcing to us. There is a difference between "outsourcing" and "offshoring." ...

Medical transcription is not the only thing being outsourced.....Lots of info to Google re Boston Hyatt Hotels replacing long time housekeeping staff with people the staff trained. It seems that everying, from the governor's office down, is outraged and want the housekeepers reinstated. Hospitality Staffing Solutions are paying the new workers $8 per hour and no benefits. The original housekeepers were making $14-20/hour with benefits and pension. ...

Can anyone tell me how closely affiliated DSG and MedQuist are, and if DSG outsources to India? We all know MQ outsources, but I'm having trouble getting information. Thinking about working for DSG, but I don't want to go anywhere that has any affiliation whatsoever with MQ. I've heard DSG uses MQ's software, just wondering how far they are in cahoots with the Q on other things, like outsourcing to India. ...

I JUST WANT TO VENT. I don't remember the exact name of this new NBC show making a comedy out of outsourcing - but I think we all need to find out who or where to write and tell them OUTSOURCING OVERSEAS IS NOT FUNNY!! From what I gather from the ads the jobs go to India (I believe) and it's supposed to be so funny. It's not freakin amusing in the least. We aren't the only industry who have been royaly SCREWED by big companies. T ...

Anyone heard about or work for OSi (Outsourcing Solutions, Inc)? Any info would be appreciated! ...

Currently, I have a FT job w/a very large hospital, actually multiple hospitals combined. We all once worked in the office; however, they sent us all home to work. There are about 130 hospital transcriptionists. We also outsource a lot of work to a large company. There have been so, so many changes - everything from new management, VR, pay for production.....Communication amongst co-workers has disappeared. Management doesn't respond. I'm really wond ...

Just thinking out loud here. I know many practices probably do their own outsourcing to MTs at home. Why not more? It must be cheaper for them with higher quality work, personalized service, etc. Some hospitals even hire MTs to work from home rather than use an MTSO. How can we, as the MT community, reach more clients/practices. Surely they have a liason in the office who handles the direction of their transcribed reports, in-house editing; someone who could do ...

I just saw a comercial on TV last night that says Mitt Romney outsouced to call centers overseas. That really upsets me and I for one will remember that when I go to the polls. I am shocked and apalled. He must need educated on the fact that Americans jobs are going overseas. ...
