blood alcohol was 0.403 which is 3 100ths (3 hundreths) of a percentage

Is this correct? He says the patient had 2 beers and had a blood alcohol level of 63. I'm not too familiar with blood alcohol levels, but that does not sound right to me. Even if it was 0.63, wouldn't that be too high for 2 beers? Am I missing something here? TIA! ...

Sounds like doc says he aspirated hematogenous blood or hematomatous blood. Any ideas? ...

If someone has an alcohol level of 210, how do you write that? Is it just 210 or is there a decimal point in there. TIA ...

"He consumes about two-fifths of alcohol per week." Is that right? 2/5, two fifths, two-fifths? Any thoughts?? ...

I cannot believe IC and at-home MTs are being asked to take drug/alcohol tests. Not that I include either in my lifestyle, but really consider this invasive, especially for the slave wages being offered in the industry today. ...

I sent in 10% to QA last month due to difficult dictators. There were a couple of days where I had some really bad dictations and maybe sent in 4 reports on that day. Other days I didn't send any reports to QA. The company has always told us if we are not 100% sure of the word to leave it blank. Now I am being penalized for taking this advice. I have been put on notice that they will let me go if I continue to go over 8%. Does this seem unreasonable? &nbs ...

Can anyone tell me what QC percentage means on our time card and what it has to be in order to get our weekly bonus? Thank you! ...

dictated one-tenth percent - would you type .1%? This seems odd to me. TIA. ...

AND, are you able to make money? How expensive is the insurance and how are the supervisors? Thank you. ...

our pay will be docked because we may leave out "a" or something along that line or not place a comma where they believe it should be. Before it just affected our bonuses but not our actual pay that we get. Now our pay will be deducted for every error that they deem that we make!!! That doesn't even seem legal. Even if you work at McDonalds and make a mistake they don't cut your pay and don't give me the crap about affecting patient safety. Bull crap! ...

When we first started this new compensation plan, I remember the magic line percentage for QA was 2%... but was that NO MORE than 2% gets post-audited, or AT LEAST 2% gets post-audited? Just realized I have over 200 lines already post-audited for the week, but I have only transcribed 6500 lines so far, and 2% of that would be 130. ...

I never know where I stand until after the fact. Do any of you know how to keep track of this? The nonsense just keeps increasing and increasing. ...

This past pay period because my QC percentage was over 10% both weeks I calculated lost wages of almost $400. The first week my quality was 100%, the second 99.7%. The second week my QC percent was just a hair over 10%, but I of course ended up on the bottom of the pay grid, a difference of $150 for the week. I don't send reports to QC because I'm lazy. Why should we continue to get penalized for bad dictators, unknown names/business entities on new accounts, et ...

Does anyone remember what they had said the percentage of audit should be each week? I know I have only had 1 job audited each week for the past 3 weeks. Which of course means 1 mistake and I'm under 99%. Anyone? Thanks. ...

Is industry standard now a requirement of 99% accuracy for the usual employee review to maintain employment or (heaven forbid) achieve a bonus? 97%, 98%, or 99%. Just curious. ...

Trying to determine the norm for providing free work. I spend more time fixing dictator's demographic errors demographic errors and searching for data that should have been dictated than I do editing. I'm just wondering if other editors just note these problems for QA to deal with or are you also working pretty much for free? Anyone been fired for refusing to work for free? ...

On the account I work I'd say only about one dictator in 20 can achieve 99% accuracy with VR without editing. This doesn't surprise me in the least. We could have told the developers this 20 years ago, but money talks. For the doctors forced to use VR, will the errors be acceptable to them? To the big wigs at the hospitals? ...

actually make sense or work. If you do lose the 0.03 cpl, don't they have to make sure you are paid min wage per hour. Wouldn't they then have to supplement you? What sense does this policy make then? ...

Has anyone figured out how the h____ this new trending and correction report percentage is working on Fiesa. Are they cherry picking the most difficult doctors to audit and skipping over the physicians that would balance the percentage score. That thing is so skewed, I cannot figure out for the life of me what it is suppose to reveal. It is totally biased against the MLS from what I can understand. ...
