Believe everything you read, huh chickenneck? We got you again, and proved our point again. She starts this week, and a nice healthy rate as well. Jealous, I know...stop wasting your valuable work time spread rumors and gossiping and you too may be one of the lucky ones! HAHAHA!

I suppose
they would have told me by now if they were unhappy with my production or my hours.
suppose i should
would like information regarding employment w/ this company. not interested in gossip... would like information that would help me decide whether this company would be worth considering an offer from.
IF VR is suppose to be
better quality, faster, then the facilities and transcription companies are already ahead in the game because their MTs will be able to do more, so why decrease their pay at all since they will be getting twice the amount of work and better quality. Is that what VR is all about? Did MTs pay decrease when they moved from standard typerwriters to electric typerwriters from electronic typerwriters to computers? Since when does better technology mean decreased pay? Is this really better technology or continued lack of value for those who do the work?
she is right, she is not suppose to cut sm
you a check without your SS number. She has to have that to cut you a 1099.
If you make less than 600 you don't have to claim it anyway.
If it were me, she would not get a computer back until I got my check!
Curiosity, why did you NOT sign any paperwork? Why would you agree to that?
I'm sure I'm suppose to be an example
probably thinking that I'm a retiree I can't afford to defend myself. LOL Fortunately I have a good attorney. He's also a personal friend. LOL
I suppose 4000/mo is too low for you?
What world do you live in?
No, you are a recruiter. I suppose that does
zz
and I suppose they are HIPPA
compliant? Cannot wait for EMR.
Are there a lot of people leaving MQ right now. Seems like that is all I see and I suppose many more
where they came from that dont come on here.
ok lets suppose you make
9 cpl - and I'll average that on 1200 lines a day, that amounts ot 13.50/hr. Thats not worth sitting in your chair for 8 hours now is it? 10 cpl - 15/hr. and I seriously doubt you make more than that. Thats a lot of busting butt for such a low wage. On a good platform with fair counting system an experienced MT should be able to type 2000 lines per day, thats with breaks, and going along at an even pace.
Suppose nobody will see this now since it's off main page. NM

If they point, I suppose she's young.

actually not MDI, but I suppose there are insensitive managers everywhere! nm

I suppose it depends on what accounts you are on
All of my accounts have been over loaded with work this past month. I'm currently doing 2500 lines a day. Maybe your friend should ask about getting more backup accounts added to her queue.
I suppose it is too much to ask. Sorry for trying to get impartial answers.
.
AND I SUPPOSE YOU GOT PAID ON TIME LAST PAY PERIOD? NM
X
Don't you suppose they realize that - have you asked for a backup? (sm)
I feel like I have sung this song before.
I suppose it depends on which accounts have openings. nm

Suppose it just adds to the hominess. One big happy

I suppose if CEOs had their way, we would be eating worms
and be thanking them for paying us the few pennies to afford our tasty worms, lest they give us another cut in pay while increasing their profits...
So what is the suggestion if all nationals are going to VR for these reduced rates. I suppose a lot
of people will just stop coming into this profession as I expect they already have and others will train for other jobs. No sure what the future holds thats for sure. Seems like no money so that will move a lot of people out of this. Who needs all the aggravation that we are given for no money.
Do you happen to know which companies HUP outsources to other than MQ. I suppose the best thing
would be to call HR but will they give out this information. Not sure who to call at these hospitals.
Seems a pretty selfish attitude ... I suppose you also choose sm
the work types you want to do and leave the cra* for everyone else. If you don't want weekend work, type for a clinic. Otherwise, you should pull your share of the load with the rest of us.
that is true about the bonus money, all works out in the end, I suppose. nm

Depends upon how your company counts things, I suppose. sm
I like both platforms. Bayscribe is easy to use, and the Expander emulates PRD+, which I was used to. The spellchecker is kind of clumsy -- that could definitely use some tweaking. The thing I liked the most about Bayscribe was at the end of each report, you saw the line count for that report and how much you made, plus a total of lines for all reports and the total number of lines you had made for the day.
I am currently using ExText, and it is also easy to use. I have to go to ichart to view my line count, though, and you cannot get it on a report-to-report basis. The CTRL+I feature is useless to me since my employer does not count headers or footers. I quit using it because I hated to see what a big difference there was at the end of the day. I could do 300 lines per hour on Bayscribe. With the current setup, maybe 250. I can do 300 if I just sit and type as fast as I can with no breaks, but that cannot last for 8 hours solid.
Either platform is okay. I still kinda miss WP51 -- think DOS-based programs were faster -- but you can't hold on to a dinosaur. And, obviously that is just my opinion. Hope it helps. 
No argument about AHDI sucking an egg, but I suppose it is just personal sm
preference. When I started transcribing 35 years ago or so, I had never heard of AAMT or anything like it, but the people in the Medical Records Department (which of course his now referred to as HIM -- why keep things the same if you can change them constantly for no rason) who transcribed the reports were called transcriptionists. The machine I used to access the dictation was called a transcriber.
Of course, it is no big deal and I shouldn't get so hung up with labels. I worked briefly for an Indian company (felt like I was sleeping with the enemy but that's another story), and they called us transcribers … ugh.
I suppose it probably varies with each account. My primary has been slow sm
since the holiday, but I am able to get my lines. I'm hoping it picks up soon.
Hope this helps.
Aren't you a positive person? I suppose you work in the office at HIS. lol nm

I emailed also, but haven't heard back yet. I suppose it will take a while to go through everyth
great line rate? I suppose that rules out the beast
haha
The rest is silence? I suppose, really strange, never mind, I can get a list elsewhere...nm
nm
I suppose you have to write down the line count for every single document and it doesnt track them
for a total for the while day. That is what I was wondering.
They probably fired your sorry self!
mm
Oh? Fired again? nm
x
I do believe that if you are fired
but if you leave willingly, you cannot collect. Good luck.
I have NEVER EVER EVER been fired from a job
But maybe you have. I was just stating something and you felt the need to jump down my throat and on my back and stomp all over it. Who are you? Diskriter management maybe?
How about the AC that was just fired
because she would not be a rat? Your AC, other ACs and those in management will be there as long as there is an OSi. They cannot get positions any place else. One AC left, tried for months to get work, could not, so went back. Also, after reading your many goofy posts here, you should count your blessings and make OSi your home. Who knows, one day you may be a director.
Probably been fired from all - LOL
nm
What AC got fired at OSI?
Yep. I got fired too. sm
The guy was a real jerk.
Yes. I was one of them fired. sm
The guy who did it was a pompous sounding ass while the HR lady cried while she was on with us.
I can see why you got fired - MT
Very unprofessional
Usually when someone is fired SM
from any job, there's the story they tell everybody about why and then there is the truth. I know for a fact there is some step-by-step procedure they go by for quality problems and they give lots of chances to attain the 98%, including the full review of work with full feedback, just like when you started.
If she didn't go through all that, then it's likely she didn't work her schedule correctly and they really are not putting up with people who abuse the schedules.
Anyone can be fired for anything at any
time. Being an IC you have less protection from that than a FT employee. All she has to say is that she has enough FT'ers or coverage or whatever and doesn't need you any more.
Fired
You have my support. It is very frustrating to have deal with difficult employers. As much as I like being an MT, I feel 90% of the time in this business, it is a very THANKLESS job. You never get appreciation for what you do, only criticized from anything from your boss having a bad day, doing too much work, not doing enough, or even silly, petty things. Not only do we have to know a lot to do this job, but make ourselves available for our employers at a moment's notice, be willing to pick up the slack of other MTs not doing their jobs, and be thick skinned to put up with negative comments, ignorant, nasty bosses, etc. It's just unfair for people to be so cold-hearted in this business. You know, what goes around comes around.
Good luck to you!
If she fired you
in a tantrum and then reHIRED you within an hour, you most probably meet employee criteria, and she, most likely, is bipolar.
let go vs fired
If you are fired, at least in the past, you were not eligible for unemployment. I was told they were not firing me, just letting me go. So you decide.
you are sure fired up
or are just a plain ol hothead. Either way, there is no need to get so rude and snotty with everyone. Yes, I worked for MQ and, contrary to what you think, I did listen, and when it was the right time for me, I also left. I too have been at this 34 years, but I've lived in 6 different states, so I have had legitimate reasons for changing jobs. One thing I know, I've always conducted myself professionally, even when I had to tell a doctor or two off, and even here on these boards. I listen and I watch, not stick my head in the sand. I gave my current opinion of MDI and CB and stand by it, until my experience shows me differently. Hope you have defused now before your BP goes off the chart, and are happy in your new job. Remember, we're all in this together, even with our different opinions.
Yup, been fired before.
About six years ago, I was let go due to 'QA issues'. I never really got the full story on why I was let go, but at the time, I didn't really care much - I was so bummed.
Try to get in touch with your ex-supervisor and simply ask what the issues were that got you fired - explain that it's so you can learn from your mistakes. Then take some time, have a few beers (if you drink), bum around in your PJs for a day or two, and then get right back on and find something else. It may have just been that the speciality didn't suit you - try something else, like cardiology or psych.
Don't give up if this is really what you want to do. Keep at it and you'll find a place that suits you. Keep smiling!!! =)

already fired
Hey Flabbergasted...just got an email from another Webmedx ex-employee...it's all over and her boss is calling everyone to tell them...expecting my phone to ring as soon as they get to my last name in the alphabet....the account is gone and so are our jobs. Our beloved manager hand picked a few of her favorites to switch to the new account coming online...the rest of us have been kicked to the curb!
