Spell checker says neuroforaminal is right but I don't find it in my med dictionary. Any form of neural foraminal, i,.e., foramen, foramina, etc., would be the same, right? ...
I have been a neurologist for the past 12 years and work both at the VA in the Comp and Pen Division as well as doing State examinations and the term neural vs. neuro- foramina and its variants is a constant point of contention among colleagues.
I've read through the posts and have spent a good deal of time perusing various online resources on this fascinating question. My conclusion (as someone in an earlier post already figured out) is that NEUROFORAMINA as 1 word is consider ...
I've pursued this line of work more out of obligation rather than choice. I know where the wind is blowing, so I'm going back to school for my Associate of Applied Science. But I'll have to juggle work and school for 2 years.
I currently work an "Indian QA" company. I had a rocky start, such that I had considered quitting and I take my chances with another company. I wisely stuck with them (after advice from this very board), and it's a good thing I did, because the seemin ...
I was reading in the employee handbook where it says that like to do exit interviews when an employee voluntarily terminates employment. Do they actually do that? ...
A couple of days ago I received a phone call that I guess was an exit interview/survey. They asked questions on very specific subjects, which led me to believe the company knows where it's failing. The questions were multiple choice (satisfied, dissatisfied, etc.), and asked specifically about CCM communication, benefits/PTO, line count with straight typing vs VR, and if there were any issues considered to be unethical or illegal. For what good it did, I did let them know how dissatisfie ...
Had my exit interview today and was BRUTALLY honest. I would like to think I helped the rest of ya all still in this business, but probably not. I explained in very frank words that twice working for Medqust/M Modal was two times too many. On the question of how M Modal can maintain a low turnaround in employees and make working with them better, I went with STOP off-shoring all the work, STOP the NJA, STOP the threats of firing with a failed audit. Keeping the work in the US will solve ...
when all they have to do is read this board to find out why MTs are leaving? Not that I expect any logical actions from them but since they are paying an outside company to do the interviews, this is an added expense. ...
I left MM a few weeks ago and today got a call. They asked lots of questions about how satisfied or unsatisfied I was with MM and I answered them all as honestly as I could. When they asked if I thought any of their practices were illegal or unethical...I told them that hiring people to work for you and then expecting them to use their PTO or go without pay when there was not enough work was extremely unethical. Especially when you have many MTs with NJA daily and others with mandatory OT someti ...
I found this on Medquist's latest quarterly financial report. It's pretty self-explanatory, although I think it is probably for the suits, as we MT/MEs don't get any severance pay. But it gets me that they can nonchalantly say that the employees who are about to be "disposed" of aren't even aware of it.

FYI I was asked to participate in a new exit interview pilot program that they will pay exiting employees. I was very very very honest. I am certain they will not hear a thing I said, but at least I know I did my part to speak up for those who are still there and suffering. ...
