MQ sending more to India

Maybe I haven't done a thorough search. I see a lot of posts about offshoring to India. Not all of the work goes there. AFAIK, the Philippines is quite a hot spot. India, Philippines--what the heck. How's that global economy working for ya? ...

Hey guys, maybe there is hope for US MTs too!!!!! This needs to stop! sending all our pt's infor overseas--clearly UK thinks it is a violation. http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/news-by-industry/jobs/UK-petition-to-stop-sending-NHS-work-to-India/articleshow/6155068.cms ...

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. ...

Is this something new? ...

Just curious: Any MDI MTs not feeling like jumping through the hoops, printing out the paperwork for Transcend on THEIR deadline even though we don't become official employees until Feb 1? Anybody going to just quit and save yourself the hassle? Doesn't seem quite fair to want MDI MTs to just say "how high" when they say "jump" does it? I'm just put out at how we've been treated. Yeah, it's business, and that usually means it is okay t ...

I'm just sayin....as a radiology MT in this company for 14 years...we have always sent radiology reports straight through to the docs to review and sign (because of turnaround time)....never knew they did QA until I got new accounts 2 years ago....and have had some pretty bad foreigners. I believe it is docs job to go over his reports anyway...he is legally responsible.. ...

Just wondering about the sending of blanks. I had a few blanks due to inaudible dictation. I know QA wouldn't be able to get it either, but when I uploaded the job the QA box was checked and I tried to uncheck it and it wouldn't let me. So, how do you just send it straight to the client and not to QA? ...

Are they kidding? Who is going to be sending ANYTHING to QA and take a chance of having their pay cut? Especially if it's the beginning of the work week! Yes, the clients will be getting blanks and I know they will be complaining. The Q keeps sending us e-mails telling us to cut down on QA submissions. Are they kidding? No amount of "tips" will help if the dictator mumbles, sneezes, is ESL, etc. Don't they think we know all the "tricks" already? Besides that, we can't ...

I feel that I flag a lot and send to QA a lot. I've been at this for about a year, do acute care, lots of ESL etc so I think it's a reasonably difficult account; but I ask myself do really experienced MTs, e.g. those at this for 5 years or 10 years or more, send so many jobs over to QA? I mean, do you get to the point where you can pretty much understand everything these guys are saying, even when they're chewing, slurring, belching etc.? I would love to make it ...

Has anyone out there gotten a 1099 from TTD? I assume not, but I only saw one post below with 1 response. Has anyone reported her to the IRS criminal division yet? This is just plain sickening. ...

Idea to contact CNN and see if we could get the attention of Dr Sanjay Gupta to do an investigative piece on offshoring. After all, this is his country, and it might interest him for many reasons. We'll see if we can get some attention, and maybe you guys can also send in requests at this link. http://www.cnn.com/feedback/show/?s=storyidea Found this on a website. ...

Okay. Finished report that original MT was in India. Went to 2 different QA editors, nothing corrected. Came to me. I made over 50 corrections. If this is any indication of their work, our jobs are safe. Ridiculous and diiscouraging at the same time. ...

gift cards. It's nice to see that people who have been fired or quit received them, but some of us who slave day after day for you were forgotten. Great quality control! ...

I want to send questions to TM although the email stated to send them to ccm. I have tons of questions. this is not fair at all. we cannot help poor audio, hemming and hawing by the dictator, dictators who cannot dictate......who the heck is running this show, lucy and ethel??? bunch of creeps. ...

I am working on sending back my equipment for MQ and just got the mailing slips in the mail today. The sheet that comes along with it tells me I'm not required to send back the foot pedal, speaker, keyboard or mouse. This makes no sense to me.....anyone been here before?? Did you just send everything back regardless?? Please help. ...

Okay, I got a ding today from my extremely sweet and helpful QATL. It seems I did not send as a cc a requesting physician dictated. I looked at the report and I did enter the requesting physician in the ADT and the body of the report. I thought if they did not specifically request a cc be sent, then you did not. Am I wrong? Old dog needs help. Also, I thought if the Req Physician was in the ADT it automatically received a carbon copy.. Hmmm.. ...

Why should we be docked for sending work to QA especially when there is an issue with poor audio quality, having a job that is incomplete or simply not being able to find the correct address even after we have spent time doing the propper research. This is as ludicrous as it would be if the phone company decided to charge us extra to call 911. ...

Hi, Can anyone tell me how to send completed typed files via a FTP site? I was asked to test for a company through an FTP site that they sent me the link to so I could transcribe 2 files. They said I could send the completed test back via the FTP site but I don't know what to do. I did look it up on Google but am still lost! ...

Does anyone send Christmas cards to their accounts? I work as an IC for an MTSO and this is the second year now that I have received a fruit basket from one of my long-term accounts. I get nothing from my MTSO, however. Last year I sent them a thank you card and maybe a Christmas card as well, but I can't remember. Anyways, I was thinking of sending them a X-mas card with a thank you note in it for the fruit basket. Thoughts? Anybody else get x-mas gifts ...

There is one thing that people should know when it comes to sending work offshore, be it India or Pakistan or any other country. The patient’s information is strictly protected. It is true that the SSN number and the MRN number is being given away by the doctors while dictating the demographics, but at the same time a person transcribing those reports does a minimum of 20-25 reports a day, do you think he or she will even remember at the end of the day what number belonged to w ...

It would be very helpful if you would state whether or not OT is approved. Never sure if you're referring to part-timers & people who need to make up hours versus allowing us to hop on for OT. ...

Yes. The Privacy Rules allow hospitals to disclose patients' names and other directory information to anyone asking for the patient by name or to the clergy. Patients do not need to sign up to be included in the directory, but must be allowed to "opt out" and choose not to be listed. For those of you who have been saying that sending transcription overseas is illegal or a HIPAA violation, this information was taken from the HIPAA Q & A board on ...

DEP light is green. Hope it is just me and not the whole system again. ...

So sick of these repeat bad dictators..If we keep sending them through QA then they never realize what a pain in the tail they are..I honestly think a lot, not all, if they realized how bad they sound would straighten up..Especially the English speaking "slurrers".. Im sending them the blanks, Guarantee no one ever say he doc, can you just slow down to somewhere near the speed of light for a change then your reports would come back more accurate and in a timely manner instead of them being ...

If I email someone directly from MT stars will they see my real name? I notice a box comes up when you click to email and you type in your name and address. Is that the name that shows up when the person recieves the email? I am asking because I have had a couple emails from people here at MT stars and I really would like to reply just not through my direct email, as I would prefer to remain anonymous and when emailing from my personal email my name shows up. So my question is, if I email ...

I quit working for On-Time Transcription due to VR and lack of income; also the fact they sold to Accentus. I get emails almost daily where QA is complaining about this or that. I've replied asking that she remove my email address as I quit and would really appreciate never hearing from this company again. I've received two more today. Ugh. Just shows how they are unable to get things done. ...

I just wonder, as an MT we are REQUIRED to respond IMMEDIATELY to an email that they say "respond immediately" to. But if in that email it states any questions, please let us know and you email them back with questions and now 2 weeks later, you still have not received an answer back. Why is it that we are required to immediately respond and have emailed the same question now a few times and yet no answer from their side. I wonder how this makes their side of the company run so ...

Either that or they are just that incompetent and can't catch any errors. I'm doing QAing on an account that is half overseas and half in the US and for now the account is 100% QA since it is new. The ILPs have to go through 2 levels of 100% ILP QA before it gets to me and they never have any errors marked. When I go through it, I find upwards of 10 errors on each report, some critical. It's nice to know our pay is going to lazy ILPs. ...

is anyone else's mail not sending, it just keeps working on it? I have also noticed that I have not received any email from tsm or qa lead in weeks, which is highly unusual. (west region) anyone else? ...

MQ sending more to India - KJWhisper

India - no name

Keep your eyes open - KJWhisper

MQ India - nn

2014???? - MQ/MT/Spheris

My gut tells me this is going to happen at a LOT - of companies, a lot sooner than 2014. (sm)

Can you elaborate on that rumor or at least tell us where we - can look for it ourselves? nm

Acusis openly admitted to its MTs that a lot - more of their work was going to India. nm
