For some of us, it can last all day. Just look at the Acct Backlog page, especially on the weekend.

Maybe we all have the same supervisor. Don't know. Can you have accounts that are under more than 1 STM?

I'll check that our. I mostly stare in disbelief at the Acct Backlog Page.
Disgusting. I'm disgruntled, too. Just got an E-mail asking for help from some newbie on my secondary on which there are only a couple dozen jobs. My primary is out and my STM will not give me a 3rd. I had a 3rd, but we lost that hospital in June. Sick of it.
Why is that Rah Rah? Don't you check the backlog page?
I get tired of ppl who shoot down every positive post when they are TRUE....
The backlog page doesn't always show all the OT - sm
Beg to differ - my STM just send her daily update saying you could work extra on about 6 different accounts. I saw another STM this morning saying the same thing in her update. So sorry if I offended you.
One person's experience is not everyone else's. If you are limited to only radiology, no wonder you are out of work.
Low work?? Hmm - check backlog page - lots of OT offered right now. nm
Are you on the ChartMatrix side mebbe?
I lost an acct with MQ, called the hospital and they told me who had the acct. I chose not to go wi

My acct mgr sent an update this morning stating a large acct sm
starting next week; another in 2 more weeks; another in early October; and another in November. This is just a normal end of summer / holiday slowdown. I'm sure other posters on this board are also out of work due to the same circumstances.
A 3-day weekend every weekend? Wouldn't that be nice. Good luck with that!..nm

Give it a whirl. I WAS on that same acct, same pay. Asked and got put on an acct just as bad, so I

How was your acct at Amphion? I have a HORRIBLE acct...
I am new to Amphion and have this account that has a lot of account specifics, no automatic ADT (which means I have to search for the names, etc) which is not a problem for me, but there is one dictator who is ALWAYS awful, and I have been getting him back to back to back my first week with Amphion. Did you find that you basically only had 1 or 2 dictators while there or did you have more? Of course, I would not mind doing him occasionally but can't do this all day. I will never be able to make any money, especially at the line rate that I am being paid. I have 2 children of my own and 3 of my sister's children in my care. I cannot afford to do this everyday and don't know what to do. I work as an IC for another company making 9 cents a line, which is much more than Amphion, but really wanted employee status so was willing to make a little less, but I am afraid it is not going to work. I do not want to have to find yet another company and start all over with them to only find out that they suck too. Any suggestions?
Are you looking at same backlog I am? sm
There are literally hundreds of jobs available now on a number of different accounts. What you need to do is discuss with your STM getting on some of these accounts.
Not at all. Worked for the NJ company. Used to pay by the page or partial page. Don't know about

At least you can see the backlog report
NM
You are SO right..the least backlog and emails fly. Overstaffed now for sure. nm
nm
Or what about when you get the e-mails that there is too much backlog and D will have to hire..sm
more MTs if you don't get it cleaned up and then you dial into your 3 accounts only to hear requested dictation completed. I don't understand this and it is very frustrating and
Did anyone else stop getting backlog emails?
Usually get an email from the account liason in the mornings plus backlog reports through the day and then suddenly I get no email at all from them. But I can still log on and work. I know they were changing the email system and I got the email last week sometime I think asking if they had the correct email address, and to let them know if not, but then I stopped getting emails!
Yes there is a major backlog on that account

Discharge Summary Backlog

Not my C-phone account. Just got a backlog report

...always a backlog by the client. If it ever gets cleaned up, you have no work for that day. This

what are you talking about - there is a huge backlog on the oncology account....
they are even offering bonuses to help get the work load into TAT. What account are you on and what center are you talking about?
there is a thread further down this page or possibly the next page
I transcribed for Compuscribe years ago. Had no problems, just low pay but no problems.
Go to the bottom of the page and click on a page
number to get the most recent archives and then can do Ctrl F and do a search for WebMedX. I wouldn't call them a small national.
Page 2, scroll down towards the middle of the page, NM

According to Allstate, they have a new account and have over 1500 jobs in backlog, is this not true?
What's the real scoop?
Some WMX posts on page 4 here near the top of the page. nm

RAD ACCT
It is probably true because it is a radiology account.
which acct
which account are you currently working on, or you would say is a bad one. Thanks
What acct
What acct do you work on? If you are on BeyondTxt T mode there is no work. I don't know how you girls who need benefits are paying for them.
acct
Thanks for replying. The problem is I did have my own account and they decided not to pay me for over a month and because I said something about not being paid they took offense. SO what can you do. Its a win-lose situation. Now I just have to hope that the check clears!
KS Onc acct
If you are working on the KS onc acct please email me.
FN New acct
Are we talking about the new acct with the 1 million lines?. What a joke. I'm lucky to do 500 lines a day and that is only by working on 3 different accts. And I found out the new acct will be going to VR, which I don't do. I'm a transcriptionist, not an editor.
KS acct
Do you know which acct you would be working on?
If it were your acct, you would already know.
They don't keep it a secret. One of mine, large hospital on the East Coast, is leaving today. I've known for at least a month. They chose not to renew their contract with us. It happens.
.06 OB acct
I felt the same way, ladies. In fact, I recently went from a .0725 (knocked down from 0.825) GROSS LINE ACCT to a .06 transcription rate acct with HORRIFIC docs - worst I've had since starting ne.arly 23 years ago. I was offered VR (with even worse docs, so basically re-typing it ALL) for .02 cpl.
I guess you can understand why I'm on the job hunt
Is this a rad acct and do they have openings? (nm)
xx
I loved that acct too....
Typical M-Q then one day it just vanished.
my acct has about 80-90% ESLs
my back up account is worse.
That seems like it could be true, my acct is So Cal
and most of the patients are not Caucasian or are ethnic (is that PC?), as well as the dictators.
Same here, about 40-50 regular drs on my acct, with
probably 10 of them being so awful, I can hardly attempt them. I'm happy to say that some I hated at first are now ones I enjoy, so hopefully I will keep finding that to be the case. Others though, UGH!
No, DRC is not really "atrocious acct" but... sm
It is NOT easy stuff... My experience has been lots of cutting-edge oncology in all specialties. If you don't know your stuff you'll be researching more than typing. Very few ESLs and, yes, the platform is Word-based, and, no, no need to be a computer wiz--tech support is great at DRC and so is QA support.
Your radiology acct
Are you working certain hours/days/evenings and are you working weekends? What is holiday pay per report?
Your radiology acct
Do you have a lot of ESL docs?
TT onco acct
Can't you get a backup account? That's what I did. They are not all slow at the same time, usually. I get better count on onco acct than on my other.
Well I was doing VR for an acct at 1.80 report. sm
They cut pay to 3.5 to 5.5 cents per line under the manager I was under. I know a lot of people left. Just curious as to if any are here on this board.
Ortho acct
i have been offered ortho, which i have a great deal of experience. How much would you say per hour you make at 7.5 WI spaces. I really have a lot of quesstions and if possible would like to e-mail you direct. Also can the ShortHand program be used
I know which acct you are talking about but (sm)
trust me (or not) there are TONS of work on others, one I know FOR SURE. Have you asked for a backup??
what acct?...email me....nm

I always get a mix, no matter which acct I am on.
