I guess that means some
accounts are hard to make lines on . . .?
it means..'join us in'... I guess..........nm
nm
I guess this means there are regional offices?
There is an ad in the Job Seeker's board. Cannot tell who exactly placed it.
11 cpl? I guess that means we won't be able to offer benefits. nm
.No hate mail - just reality that benefits cost BIG BUCKS.
Not true by any means
Please, stop making up lies and get back to your MT work. I feel sorry for you actually. 
You're right -- ignorance means a person didn't know, and I didnt. Sorry. nm
Moderator answered "Not True" which means she will not delete post with name and link (nm)
Guess you didn't understand it.
Seymour already works there, hence the mention of one of their clients who obviously is heavy ESL, despite the fact that the recruiter advertises no ESLs. Maybe she means that one particular account, but I can't see placing all new hires on that one account. Silly me, that's what they do with ALL new hires and that's why they're running out of work all the time until everyone quits and then all the cheerleaders come on the board talking about how much work they have. Well, duh....could it be cuz nobody's there anymore?
Oh, guess it is good I didn't then:)
nm
Guess didn't look close enough
Didn't put 2 and 2 together (Jennifer Poole and RC Transcription). So right. We deserve more than 5 cpl. What a rip! Case closed:(
didn't realize, guess I don't then...NM
nm
LOL, guess I didn't read where it said subject (sm)
See, I'm just too dang stressed. Oh well, just don't sell my address, I get enough spam as it is and never read it.
Sorry you didn't get your check. Guess different areas are different.

Guess the moderators didn't like it for some reason.
And only the original poster would have gotten the e-mail stating that their post had been removed.
I had a post flushed once. I wasn't happy about it. But it's their board, their rules, their say-so.
I actually put a message on the moderator board...guess they didn't see it yet (NM)
I didn't know that. At TransTech we have Stedmans, so I guess they provide it.
s
I guess I was confused...didn't realize poster...
was referring to hourly wages. Whenever I worked an hourly job, lunches were not paid--had to punch in and out.. The 15-minute breaks were paid though...didn't have to punch the ol' card for those.
I just get rubbed raw at the hourly thing because the average at-home transcription gig pays on production and to mandate that someone has to be sitting in front of their monitor from such and such a time or else is just very disheartening. We know we have to work our buttinski's off or we bring home a crappy paycheck and we recognize TATs that have to be met...treat us like the professionals we are and we'll all be happy, know what I'm sayin?
Guess I didn't. Heard back within a day of taking the test, sm
but that was several years ago. Depends on current recruiters, I guess.
Thank you. I went to Walmart today, and guess what, they had one phone and it didn't work!. Go
NM
I didn't even say it was a complaint, just true
it is nice to get the information you need as an MT, and some places give you nothing, but it was an incredible amount of books, I've never gotten that many before,and I truly did not have room for them all, not a complaint, just a statement.
I sure didn't find that to be true - sm
My acct is about 10% ESL, my secondary is about 25% ESL. I know that your line rate is based on the difficulty (ESL) level of the account. Miss Willy might have had a poor experience, but the other 550 MTs working there (some for many years) are not so bad.
YIKES... I guess I knew it sounded to good to be true. I wonder if anyone ever gets sign-on bonuses
at any company. Maybe we should take a survey on who actually gets a sign-on bonus. How depressing is that. Now I'm bummed.
True. It was demeaning and insulting. Tell me you didn't like my resume or that I smell bad..
Whatever... but don't tell me that I do not have experience. What is with these people. If they are that unprofessional, we would feel blessed we received the kiss-off form letter LOL
George says what he means or is it he means what he
but he sure does apologize in a way I've never heard a person whose company is valued at $8m a year apologize before and I've worked for companies who played who is the president of the week game! All I can say is that his personal interview about his high school reunion has a distinctly different style than his late January postings in which he degrenates the poster he tries to engage. Just remember George's quote we are misinformed.
Glad that's true for you for 8 years. Not true for many. I love the company, but I do run out of
as do many others. Wish I were as fortunate as you.
Not necessarily true. That is not a true test of skill.
Do you know how many people get others to take tests for them? It happens and it happens more often than you might think. The only skill that shows anyway is that you can do it.
We are actually more than a transcriptionist. We are specialists in our field and we are supposed to know some things regarding anatomy and physiology as a working base. That's how we can judge if a physician dictates something in accurately and many do because they can't pronounce or just are not thinking. That's why our skills of basic knowledge come into play and that means basic knowledge of body parts. If our job was just to sit there and type without thinking about what we are transcribing, then all patients are in trouble and this is just based on what I see as a QA person.
It's more than just knowing how to transcribe and some of the companies have discovered how to know what your basic knowledge is based on what you have picked up with your experience by utilizing your references etc. Hopefully that utilization of your references has taught you something that does stick in your head.
Beliefs like yours are just so far off base. You have to know what you are doing. It's not just about being able to listen and type. Base knowledge is a very important thing and the services have to find a way to know that knowledge base that is there in your head.
I didn't say I didn't care, I just don't understand
why the sudden outrage over HL offshoring.
What it means to me?
As an employee of Heartland, what my understanding is of what that means to me....I am still an employee, and more than likely the purchasing company will need me just like Heartland needs me now. Waiting for the conference calls to hear more information.
It means
That SoftScript screws everyone who has a brain between their ears. The "newbies", and no offense intended, run the company because that is all they have because anyone with any experience has LEFT and rightly so. They take your lines, make you think you are insane, have you work 24-7 to get a decent pay, and god bless if it is on time, which it actually has been x2 since they have been bashed on this board. THAT IS WHAT ALL THIS MEANS. The management is the worst, QA the worst, and lies beyond belief. That is what all this means. DUH.
It means they need it right now!
What stat. means to you as a Transcriptionist is that the turnaround needs to be fast! It would be identified in your accounts specs or your contract or whatever what the turnaround is. Maybe it is an hour, maybe 2 hours, maybe 4 hours after it is dictated. Whatever it is, it means that they need it back quickly. It has priority over anything else.
what does this means?
Im a newbie MT and trying to find a job. I would like to ask what does this means as for compensation? Is this good?
Compensation Information: Subcontract, 9 cents for 65 keystrokes
what does this MEANS....
xx
Yes, I think that is what it means. Not sure why they don't just say so LOL.
x
It means there is no more. nm

So that means
You can thank the politicians in DC (both parties) for passing NAFTA and giving us the SHAFTA...
What do you think this means?
I'm wondering what this new COO means for us down here typing away in the trenches. Does anybody know anything about him?
for now usually means
until we get all our people making half what you do trained, then . . . .
SE means
statutory employee. Like an IC (independent contractor) you pay your own taxes, set your own schedule, etc, but as an SE, the employer pays part of the SS taxes. No benefits come with either IC or SE positions, other than freedom.
Thank you all, that means a lot to me
:)
exactly, which means
if you are going to claim yourself 100%, you need to present it also. Talk is so cheap.
OT for some means OOW for others
I normally work 3-11 pm. I come on and look at my email. The boss approved OT early this AM because we were out of TAT; by the time I punch in we're within an hour of dictation, BUT SHE LEAVES APPROVED OT UP THERE, and by 8 pm I'm OOW because all the day people got the OT (and are still on there wanting more) and I'm lucky if I get my 8 hours working secondaries putting in a 10 hour day.
How so? If they are IC, and know what that means,
x
OK, that means no. I'm sure if the SM
money was in your account right now, you'd be posting it all over the boards about how you were right.
My pay was in the bank on the day it was supposed to be-I wish yours had been also.
I'm not sure exactly what this all means
but I'll see what happens if i still decide to send my resume. Thanks for the information.
By all means, when you having nothing
proclaim yourself in charge of mtstars QA, fondle that typing police baton for a moment or two, then launch into full-blown attack mode and WHUP UP. FOP.
I would like to know what it means
NM
Know what IM means, but what do they
nm
I don't think that is what she means
I think (and I could be wrong) her hospital was bought by CHS and she was an in-house employee. She and her co-workers have to be trained as if they were new hires to Spheris. They will go through a 90-day probation period as would any other new-hires. The Spheris Specials Team will be covering her hospital's acounts while she and her co-workers are being trained. Somewhere on here it was discussed that CHS or whatever their name is was out-sourcing their work to Spheris and it involved the hospital employees being transitioned at their current pay scale but then it could go down to the Spheris pay scale. She's not training anyone with samples, etc.
So, not sure - EMR means??
Electronic medical records and does this mean they are entering template dictation or their own typing dictation, what? Does that work, time-wise for them as they chug out 6-8 patients an hour..
What it means
is probably FELLOW. They probably saw it on some physician's certificate or some place in academia. The difference is that in medical school or academia, the title of FELLOW is earned, not conferred upon oneself's like the nonsense spewed by AHDI. And, like you, I think it stands for something unprintable. At least to my own mind, that is about all it is worth.
This may be true... and that is philisophically true, but
and pay bills while being screwed? This is what I think the OP is scared of... I certainly agree and honestly think it is unfair to put people in this precarious position... on one hand be grateful you still have your job, or a job, and on the other, immediately there will possibly be a cut in pay, for which you may have to give up your home, or medicine or reduce your budget for food. I don't know if I am the only one, but I think the OP still has a good head on her shoulders and that may be the problem...at least for employers out there who are switching to VR.. and their employees
