EMR distracts from doctor's attention
Went to the doctor for GI problem. He spent most of the time dinking around with his laptop. He ordered tests and didn't prescribe anything for interim relief. I paid the bill. A week later, got another bill for his time spent with me in the exam room dinking around with his laptop!
I actually have two real jobs with real benefits. sm
One is SoftScript at 10.5 cents a line, taxes taken out and PTO, insurance, the whole ball of wax. The other is a hospital work at home job, same scenario. They are out there.
Maybe we should all form - nm
.
Nothing really...ASR is just MQ form of it.
Or at least as far as I know, but I've only done it at MQ...so I very well could be wrong:-)
We ought to form our own company LOL
MTs for MTs? Americans doing work for Americans? Contact them all and keep the accounts with the same Americans who have been doing the work. Okay, okay, nice fantasy, but it was fun.
A bit of gallows humor.
Just a form of advertising
Kind of like a Q&A. Like does so and so offer insurance A: Why yes they do very reasonable. Q: Any info on this company. A: Great company!! Smiley smiley tappy tappy feet. Get a room---- pleaseeeeee
If you file a form with the IRS
as an IC and think you should be classified as an employee, and they determine you have been an employee, are there tax/penalty obligations for the IC?
See Search box top of this form
you can type in Synernet and up comes other posts on company, I saw 7 cents a line, no spaces and 4 cents a line for editing with minumum lines requirments of 1600 straight typing and 2200 lines for editing. Not for me. Slave labor.
How can a message be confidential if it posted on a public message board? nm

Go to your state's website and get the W4 form SM
for your state, fill it out and send it to Medware's HR department/payroll. If they still don't take the taxes out, REPORT THEM TO YOUR STATE TREASURY. The state will go after them and they will have to pay penalties.
By law, they HAVE to take state taxes out of your paycheck if you send the W4 to them. They can't refuse or avoid it.
I am in no way, shape or form trying to bash here.

I got the same form email today and
17 years experience here.
Who's going to give up the life they have now and try to form one?!!

1099 Form amount
Isn't the amount $600.00? If you make that amount or more then you must be sent a 1099 form? I do have records of all of my earnings that I made last year. I made a little over $3,000.00 with this company. It was not that much, but enough to report in.
When I was hired they sent a form letter saying
starting pay was 8 cpl - no exceptions. They talked raise frequently but never got one, never got paid for OT, never got paid for holidays. There was a problem a few months ago and pay was late as supposedly they didn't have money to meet total payroll, but I never had a problem with my check.
MQ application form after interview
Needing a new job, I applied, tested and interviewed with MQ. At the end of the interview, I was told there was one last thing I needed to do, which was to fill out another form. An application similar to the screening application I had completed when I applied initially as I understand. Well, I can't find it. I've also called them twice about it and they said I had been sent an email about it with the link. But, I have received no email about this and do not know where to find this form to complete. I was hoping someone here would know. If you do, please let me know. Thank you in advance.
Sweetness. Let's form a posse.

Go to the medquist form for the date of 03/17/09
Top of page *Two factual Verifications: and under that is: Proof taken off internet. If you click on this you will see the article regarding MQ and SPI's new contract regarding sending 2 million lines per month to them. By 2011 they will be sending 6 million.
I worked form them as well and it was a terrible
the glowing reviews on here of late, and there are 2 reasons for it: 1. For the umpteeenth time, there is some MT out here who works for a different Landmark, and she always gets in on the PA Landmark thread and claims they are wonderful. 2. I honestly believe the posters who praise were 100% management or supervisors, as I know many MTs who worked for them - we all knew each other before - and not one had a good experience, not a single one. Personalities aside, they are a tiny overflow company, and they never have steady work for even part time. So, nothing has changed, yet someone keeps lying on this board and acting like they are multiple people and how great the company is. Its so sad that this continues on here. That's why to this day I don't listen to 1 single review of a company on here. If I read good reviews, I don't believe them. If I hear nothing, I figure its a safe bet, and that finally landed me a wonderful job. But every single job that was praised on this board ended up being literal crap. So very sorry you had to learn the hard way, too. That company is a joke, though its not funny when its happening to you. Be lucky you got out as quick as you did.
How can you receive an email form your
company if your email is not typed exactly right? It will never be delivered into your inbox, but will go right back to the company, as 'not able to deliver.'
It's the adjective form calculous that modifies sm
cholecystitis. Feel free to look it up. Calculus is a noun.
Please do not put your resume in the form of a medical report.
For starters, using patient's names is incorrect and you have yours all throughout that medical report. I don't know who started this, but it is simply NOT professional and that resume will go very quickly in the dead resume bin.
time to form union, people
nm
WTH do they wait so long? is it a form of torture?
lazy?!?!?!
P.S. - If your company has filed form SS-8 ask for a copy.
If they won't give it to you, see if you can get it from the IRS; I believe you can.
And, of course you can still file your own SS-8 even if the company has filed it. I'm not saying an MTSO would LIE on the form they file, but anyone can make a MISTAKE...
Please form a list of nonVR companies
It would be great to have all in 1 place companies which do not have VR (and they usually are all USA too). I can only come up with 2 to start, but please add to the list. This would certainly help out those who do not wish to take the leap at this time into that kind of technology. Thanks for adding to the list.
1. Keystrokes. Very little VR, lots of straight typing. No overseas.
2. SoftScript. I think all straight typing. I do believe no overseas.
Please add to the list. It would be a helpful tool for many of us. Sorry I can't think of more, but then again, that is why I am creating this post. Thanks again.
I got one too. I turned them DOWN for a job, insurance too expensive. Don't worry, just a form
and I have well over 16 years in this bizz.
OSI true to form: I am ready to quit on the spot
I just got my latest paycheck from OSi and did not get paid the extra 5 cpl holiday pay. The reason??? With their ridiculous new holiday policy my primary and secondary accounts were out of work, did not have enough work to give me the 1000 minimum line count so therefore I did not get the extra pay for the lines that I did type. I was required to be stuck at my PC all day and constantly got instant messages from client support to make sure I was there. This is just sooooooooooo wrong. I am so fighting mad and feel like quitting right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I need some help ASAP. Does anybody please know where I could get hired at another company pretty quickly? I almost don't care where it is because I am desperate. This is the last straw with OSI and I have had enough. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Still have not received 1099 form from previous employer!
Am I not correct that employeers are supposed to send out 1099 forms by the 31st of January? I quit a company back in May of 2007 and I still have not yet received a form. I guess I should contact these people? You would think they would have sent it to me by now! It's frustrating having to contact old employers because you really do not want to have to be bothered by them anymore!
Just go to MQ board and read, form your opinion from current employees (nm)

If you work for DR they send a form letter to all employees about bonuses.sm
If you work for them and are eligle, they send a form letter out letting everyone know how it was figured.
YEE GADS the old bitty's are out today.
you get a form to put in your name, email, and paste your resume. MTSpot sends it to the recipient
b
Form an LLC (limited liability corporation) if you are an IC by filing legal paperwork SM
that way no one can sue your personal assets away, only those of your business entity, even if it is only your IC company in your name. This can be done through a lawyer or at companies such as legalzoom. this limits your liability and protects your personal assets. otherwise, they can take away all your assets, including your joint assets of your spouse.

please don't put nm or call yourself nm if you have a message - nm means no message -sm
nm means no message. sm means see message. if you call yourself nm, then people might not click to read the rest of your post.
just trying to help.
ps. if the money is there, why does that particular person's balance say zero?

Monitor, I hope this post is okay.
That is so odd to me. I have never had an issue
making the line count and there has always been an overabundance of work since I've been there and they even ask regularly for us to work more if possible because there's so much work, and I don't work on C-phone accounts at all.
she had an issue with ...sm
anyone who had a brain because she was intimidated by truth and intelligence. She is driving that company into the ground. I feel bad for the blind eyes of the owner. That was a great company in its day, now all I see is a company that is going to sell or go belly up.
Do you have some issue?
Or do you just like to jab at anybody who has something positive to say?
I don't get it.
If I may, what is the issue
with the pay? Are they not standard paydays?
I think the issue is
that what started as a simple inquiry as to whether or not other people were also out of work quickly turned to bashing the company and personal bashing of management personnel. From what I gathered, half of the people doing the bashing were never employees. I honestly feel for the OP as I went 4 months making $25 a week if I was lucky at the end of my time with MQ (that was the longest holiday slow down in history). However, I have not had the same experience at MDI and actually am lucky enough to have an abundance of work at the moment. I don't know how Carlotta found out about the comments on here, nor do I care. I would imagine that since it is a public forum she may have run across it herself without an MT blabbing. I believe Carlotta's response was generally saying the issues/slamming in the subsequent posts were things that should be discussed with her, the liasons, and/or Dorothy.
QA issue
I went full through full QA and was released with above 99%. Additionally, I asked my QA for help regularly for help on some difficult dictators (for the future) and she always commented how throrough I was.
That was before the company changed hands, however, and all QA personnel changed.
pay issue
My pay has actually went up, not because of the VR necessarily, but because of DH getting laid off, and the need to work harder, not just meet line requirements (which was my goal prior to lay off). That is the reason I worked so hard at learning VR. I didn't want to starve (starvation is great motivator) 
But that could be Leave a Message or Little Message! LOL
nm
Congrats! :) SM = see message. NM (no message)
Well, I'm sure you'll get over your issue with me
and you should stop adding the fuel, I think you are enjoying yourself
don't fret over the OT issue yet
You may find that OT is offered (and sometimes begged for) more often than you think. If you keep a good line of open communication going with your PS, then I really don't think you'll be as bad off as you are projecting.
Something else, too, is that it's always good if you need >40 hours to have a part time company to supplement.
This is not an EXText issue (SM)
It is a company issue. Not all companies that use EXText deduct 30% of your line count. There are several companies that use EXText. Don't get in a panic! Find out what the company's policy is on headers and footers, what they pay for, what they don't etc.
Yes, I contacted HR, this is not an issue
with my paperwork. It is that they have not sent my contributions to MetLife - not one cent all year, and I am having 10% withheld. That is a lot of money the company has been using. Almost seems like stealing, doesn't it?
I don't think the comma is the issue.
Looking at other people's work is a violation and perhaps, just perhaps, the attitude is more the problem that was being brought up. I QA all day as well and I am appalled at the lack of care taken with records and have to agree with the MTSO above. To do this dance properly, you have to understand the steps. I live in fear of becoming ill and ever having the opportunity to see my chart and read what it contains. I will take 1,000 lines of good clean work over 2,00 lines per day of typing for dollars transcription any day. I do not think that you should be made to feel like you do not know anything .. but I do think that there is a responsibility to point out errors and expect compliance.
