This one they didn't announce, they just sent out emails to some people about a conference call.  If you got the email, you got canned.

It hasn't been announced yet..
But some of the office people have "leaked" the info apparently.
New Webmedx CEO announced
Anyone know where the former CEO is going? It seems like this company has had a lot of shakeups. I hope they'll keep cleaning house at the top.
Wonder why mystery job winners are not announced

by MQ sup. Have not heard a word about the winners of these. This is another "Edix" stunt. They have not played these games with the MT's in the very recent past, but that was an ongoing game with them. A friend of mine won in June, and just got notification this week (about 4 months later) of 3 or 4 places she could spend the money using some card that she has to get off the internet-- lives in a small town -- those stores are not even in her town !  Big whoopee for Edix/Spheris !!!


I remember, it was announced in November

The theft was in October and released to the public in November.  I didn't follow it so don't know how it all turned out, but here's the link for anyone interested.


Another nat'l (smaller sized) just announced they
are going to voice recognition very soon.  Pay now 3-4 CPL.  I quit MQ for this.  I could cry.
the MTSO I have been dedicated to for several years has just announced NO CHOICE on VR

So regretful that we have just been informed me of management's announcement yesterday that my accounts were going escription and absolutely no voice about cutting line rate in half . . . there is no way that an MT can edit for half the pay -- especially those of us MT's who have highly depended on their abbrevations/shortcuts/expanders.  They are not allowed in VR, nor is retyping the report !


Oh, boy . . . please let me know when you find a company who hires MT's without doing VR nor jobs going overseas.  I will be begging for a hire date with that company !


University of Iowa Med Center announced layoffs yesterday
I think the news report said they were getting rid of 130 people now, a total of 200 this year. Fortunately (their word, not mine), they're not going to have to make any cuts in people who have patient contact but in administrative areas (that'd be us). Truthfully, I'm not sure if they even still have in-house transcriptionists, but you know that if they do, they'll be the first to get their marching papers.
