Sears drainage instead of serous. And my personal favorite: Protestants. Mary is with us. Should have been Proteus mirabilis ...

Should have been Proteus mirabilis, but it was a nice thought anyway. ...

20 years ago when the DRG's hit the hospitals, one was complaing to the other... "they treat doctors like a bunch of old dogs now". Well, that's how MTs are being treated now. Why on God's green earth do the MT services require all MT's to work at least one weekend day every week (Friday's and Monday's don't count). Every ad I see on the Job Seeker board requires weekends. Are they sadistic or something. Why do we put u ...

Just came across this VR interpretation. Can anybody guess what the doc was really saying "History of pepperoni she abandoned" ...

Because the second TAA petition is about to expire, and as soon as we all get laid off, then we can get back to school. ...

This is getting to be a regular thing. Barely enough work to go around in my BOB as it is! ...

I have been with MQ, well. . . , FOREVER unfortunately. I found out about the board when I was googling something about Medquist about 2-1/2 years ago. How did you all find out about this board! ...

He received supplemental oxygen and anti manic amputations by EMS. ...

Got an E-mail (isn't that personal, but better than nothing, I guess) that my old hospital has decided not to fill the position "at this time," but will keep my resume for future reference. New clothes, pedicure, and a lot of stress for nothing. So my MQ job is looking a lot better today. . . Maybe next time. ...

a company would do that???????? ...

ASR says: He was seen in "twelfth" 2011. Anyone care to guess what "twelfth" means? ...

E-mail says 300 MTs chosen to attend the webcast. If you haven't received an invitation, you're not in. Curious to see what the 300 have to say... ...

MModal didn't cut my pay this week, I haven't been thrown into the cesspool yet, I haven't been put on QA review (yet) and I have plenty of work. So we'll see what tomorrow brings. ...

I failed another interview yesterday, and I'm not going to do anymore interviews. When they start asking stuff like, how does your experience as a medical transcriptionist translate to this particular job, I'm stumped. Among other questions. I have started building some other skills (like Excel), but I always end up looking like a complete idiot. So I'm just gonna stick with MT until it goes away and then I'll go to the unemployment office and mayb ...

I figured mine on Friday the old way and just checked my new one to approve and it is the same as it would have been on old pay scale. Holding my breath for the next week. So ridiculous. ...

exceed the submission rate. That will stop once the client starts reading the reports and sees all the errors. Seems like it would invalidate their contract with MQ. Maybe we should stop sending reports to QA, just guess at everything. Our defense would be that we were forced to do this. ...

I just had an idiot dictating with what sounded like his whole family in the background, foreground, everyground. Two young girls talking and giggling and then saying goodbye to each other. Daughter talking to mother. Some kind of beeping noise like a piece of heavy equipment backing up....beep, beep, beep, beep. Dictator just yapping away. How inconsiderate!!!! Okay, I'm done. ...

Am I overly concerned or do you think I may have a point? I think the Word Help Board is invaluable and have always helped whenever I 100% knew the correct spelling. But as I have been reading the questions, there seem to be more and more drug questions from drug lists, which means no point of reference. There are also a few “allergic to: sounds like” questions. When I first started working as a Medical Transcriptionist, QA was always: “Leave a b ...

I give up. I've submitted so many resumes and applications that my head is spinning. I can't help it that my experience is more than two years ago. The doctor died and the practice split up! I live in a small town where outsourcing is unheard of and the MTs work at a place until they die. I passed my typing test and editing test with All-Type, had my interview, discussed contract terms, and the woman said she would send the contract out. But she ...

If I go to work for Keystrokes - and they ever get bought out - do you think it would be by MModal or Nuance? ...

I was under the impression, silly me, that medical coding would be safe from outsourcing to India, with further research I am sorry to say I was wrong, so very sad : ( http://www.medesun.com/ Back to finding a hands-on job in healthcare. ...

She is General Counsel, SR VP & Secretary. ...

I was moved OFF an account because I was doing the lines that could be carved up to 2 newer MTs with resulting OOW messages for MONTHS without being "permitted" another backup. Then, I get this after being on not 1 but 2 new accounts in the past 6 weeks. The tone in this email just oozes "respect," you know? She must know I'm talking about her... "Please remember that your QC exclusion percentage must be maintained under 10%, unless you are learning a new account. We ...

Now that we can be dinged for leaving a blank that QA thinks we should have known, my % score has gone to the dogs (my apologies to all canines). When I get a mush-mouth or a really gnarly ESL, there are circumstances where I have no choice but to leave a blank. I'm not talking about stuff that could be looked up. Sometimes the blank in question can be interpreted as either one word or other other and either choice doesn't change the meaning. But I can gu ...

If this company wasn't so darn greedy, maybe they wouldn't be in BK now. Buying out all these little transcription comipanies and making everyone work for the big and mighty MM. Now what?? Idiot management! ...

Remember an earlier poster said they had heard that supposedly there was going to be "big news" in October or some such that would help MTs make better production or more money somehow? Some folks were leery, hypothesizing that any change at Nuance usually means bad news for MTs. This came to me in the middle of the night last night so it is likely off the wall. But, I think everyone will be required to clock in and out each time they leave the keyboard for any reason. In other words, no ...

is now officially over. Three accounts, not one drop of work. Those of you who warned us can now say "I told you so!" ...
