Moderator answered "Not True" which means she will not delete post with name and link (nm)

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.
here is the link to company info page
http://www.synthescribe.com/company.html
It's in the left column under the Company board or the link is inside

http://forum.mtstars.com/medquist


If you cannot see the Medquist link in the left column, you need to delete your cookies and empty your cache file.  That will resolve your problem.

Your link is broken.....see inside for correct link:

True, but I don't do VR at my company. nm
.
NOT TRUE !!! I was a manager at a company that sm
was sued (and lost $450,000) because of a limb that was taken incorrectly based on the transcription. The hospital lost $2.8 million, the doctor $4.2 million and the transcription company $450,000. This was due to the fact that the transcription said one thing and the voice was gone so there was no proof of what had been said.

That error is partly responsible for the hospitals having the patient verify the limb and putting the x on it with the patient still awake and alert.

It was 14 years ago and I would not recommend a service to go without E&O and liability insurance, especially as the public is more sue-happy now than they were even back that short period ago.
Not true. This info is on the Company board per Admin's request.
It is all clearly marked "MQ" somewhere in the subject line or name.

The Main board is virtually free of the new MQ posts. Go back over there or just scroll down the page to where you want to read.

No one has forced you to read anything. Admin made a request that the new MQ info be placed on this board and we have complied.

You're not obliged to read if you don't want to.
No, I haven't been. I told my true experience of working for that company.
I don't have a negative attitude.  You're the one who can't handle it when someone disagrees with you.
Is it true Dictaphone is now owned by Nuance (an Indian company)? (sm)

that explains why the downhill slide.


Test dictations are often bogus and not true voice files from the company. Need to ask. nm

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.


where is the MQ link

I do not see the MQ link to the left of the page anymore.  Was it moved?


 


MQ Link

To sm:


I am sorry for my post. I did not really see the Medquist menu at the left margin as of the time I posted my suggestion. It seems the link has been deleted for some time, as some viewers have just complained. 


Thanks,


 jgl


 


 


see link below
It's an SE position.  Fortunately I'm a vet and can get my healthcare at the V.A.  I'll figure something out later, but right now I need an INCOME since MQ has messed me up royally.  I may have other places I could find health insurance, maybe through the small business organization or something. Ill miss my PTO, but, hey, nothing is perfect :)
no link for me
Since the boards went through an update (about the time the MQ board was made) I haven't been able to see any specialty boards listed on the left anymore, just Top, Home, and Contact.  I have to go to Home to see the list of the specialty boards and for some reason MQ board is not even on there with the others. 
Try this link.
When the link opens up, look on the left-hand side under News & Info, and there is a section called message board.   If this link doesn't work go to yahoo.com and click on finance.  When the finance page opens up, type trcr at the top of the page where it says enter symbol(s).  The message board link will be on the left-hand side of that page too. 
Link to another link. Look for changes soon

Linda - sorry it took so long to get back to you. I've had a few very slow weeks, but we need you. Send name and # to www.transcribeitquick.com and we'll get you started this week - you have not been forgotten - Eileen
I saw this link

I don't work for CyMed, but I saw this link posted on another board.  It seems to have a little information.

They give me a check and a nice luncheon. I've only been working for them for 3 months so I was pleasantly surprised that they invited me since I don't work in-house.

Here's a link when I was asking about them
a while ago.  I did contact them and told me only full-time positions but that's all I really asked about so don't know anything more.  You might get some hits if you put the name in the Google search at top and click on search MT Stars.
Here's a link.
This has a couple of them.

AHIMA looked into it, suggested everyone do VBC and why. Clients, I suppose, would be the ones to insist on VBR because they can check bills for accuracy.

However, read this one addressing all from MTs voice in the matter, you will love it:

Anyone know a link
Can anyone tell me a link for the shorthand.  When I Google it, there is all kinds of ShortHand programs that come up.  Is there a  trial version?  TIA.
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
The only link I found

Not sure if this will get you the full 2-page story --- but absolutely worth spending the $1.75 to get the paper if it does not.

It's actually 10-13 cpl. Here's the link from a post below. nm

Your link is not working.....sm
also, do you know what specialties they are hiring for? Thanks!
Here is a link to the website (sm)
where you can order the book.
OK... I really want to see some kind of link here. sm
I don't believe this for a second. I believe this poster is just trying to stir things up. If this were really true, then the OP would have posted a link or would have provided the source of the information (the news source) so this could be verified. Otherwise, if no link/source is provided where we can verify this, I would just assume this poster is a troll.
Post a link
Post the link!
