SPI Healthcare Documentation
I heard they only hire ICs for MTs right now but will get employee and benefit package in near future. Payday is 15th and last day of the month. Scheduling is pretty flexible. Everyone I know there is pretty happy. Depends on which account you are assigned to about the extra phone line being needed. Some accts only require 1. Ask the recruiter any questions you might have for further info. Don't rely on this board for everything.
It's an ASSOCIATION, people. Not a union.
It's not so. There is no union for MTs.

They have broadened their scope, true. They have finally changed their name to fit what they really are focused on -- healthcare documentation.

MTs are a vital part of that process.

However, the AAMT or AIHD or whatever is NOT your union. Stop groaning over these things.

I believe AAMT guidelines is 65 chars. with spaces. Maybe go to aamt.org and see if you can

The coroporate office is located in America..American Association for Medical Transcription..not sm
Association for American Medical Transcriptionists.  If you don't want your stuff overseas..tell AMA, your congressperson, etc.
do you have documentation on this?
Maybe you can sue these jerks.
You won't get any documentation

such as an NSF stamp until you actually deposit the check and it goes through the bank's system.


If you go in, a teller can tell you verbally whether or not there are funds, but you won't get any stamp.  I think if there was a nearby branch of that bank I would go in every day and check.  The moment there was any money in the comnpany's account, I would try to grab it.  It is really first-come, first-served in a situation like that.  Some banks, however, won't even cash a check drawn on their bank unless YOU also have an account there.

Good morning all!  I am a current MQ'er looking to possibly jump ship.  I am supposed to test with SPI in the next few days and just had a few questions about the company.  How long are pay periods?  How free is scheduling?  Does work run out?  Any information would help.  I checked the archives, but there was nothing current.  TIA!
are you nuts? Documentation is not going to
go away. If anything else, it will increase due to sue-happy people.
As long as you have documentation for what you

I just want everyone out there to know that if they are looking for the best company to work for, an honest company, always paid on time, benefits available, bonus incentives, wonderful people, and management who actually know your name and work with you so that everyone benefits, this is definitely the company to look into.  If you have any specific questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail me - I have nothing to hide.
What type of documentation do you get for taxes?
Thanks.
Sounds like you've got the documentation to
If nothing else, it might be enteraining making them squirm a bit. Hee.
i have documentation on TTS...i was an IC, but they demanded much different....email me if you need

Thanks!

I am currently employed with Integrity.  This is a great company to work for.  I have been employed with Integrity for over a year now and I love the work.  There is plenty to go around for everyone.  The Emdat program is not that bad to work with.  I find it slow at times but it is usable.  I have worked with better programs, but it is tolerable.  Pay is by direct deposit on the 1st and 15th of each month and my pay has always been deposited on time.  Hope this helps.  If you have any other questions feel free to ask.  You can email me.  TY.
Integrity LLC
I just wanted to help try and answer any questions that anyone may have on Integrity LLC.  I have worked for them since they started and have not worked for a better company.  They do work with EMDAT and know some people don't care for it but I have found that it is alot more user friendly than some I have used.  There is plenty of work to go around and looking for great MT's that will as loyal to the company as the company is to their MT's.  I can not say enough good things about them.  Pay is the 15th and the 30th and always on time.  Getting new and bigger accounts all the time.  I have worked for some of the larger companies and I have found that this is more like a family than just being a number.  If you have any questions at all please feel free to email me and I will try and answer any questions you have.  This is the cream of crop MT's and couldn't ask for anything better.   
Integrity
I was offered to take this test from them.  God, tell you if that is a sample of what their files sound like, do not want any part of them!  I could not find anything on them here or in archives, either!  The test is about 10 minutes long, too long for me to spend on that one anyway!
Integrity
Nicole is a great boss. Pay is always on time, however, you have to wait about a month for your first pay. Pay is kind of low... highest account is 8 cpl, rest are 7 or 7.5. Emdat platform.

Anybody work for Integrity? Good? Bad?


Thanks


Integrity
She is great to work for, not so great on the pay 7 cpl to a tops of 8 depending on account.  Have to wait a month for your first pay.  Emdat platform.
Integrity
If you are referring to the Integrity Service out of Florida, you need to speak to the owner.  There is always plenty of work on one of the many accounts.  I work part time for her and have done so for the past two years.  I have had no problem with work or getting paid.  Sorry that you are having a difficult time.  Hope this helps.

I am a former mentor of Allstate. *** (Owner) owes me almost $1000 (this is for 2-1/2 months work) When I gave my notice, my accounts were locked immediately and I was unable to get my line counts to send invoices. In fact, I couldn't even edit my interns documents. When decided not to give a 2 week notice since I was told I would be put on probation if I stayed and I could not afford to work for free any longer, I was told that I forfeited all of my earnings because I signed an IC contract.  Since April, I have made a total of 78.00 working there.


 


If you are an experienced MT, stay far away and go to a hospital which is where I previously worked. I regret my decision to leave the hospital (due to health issues) because I was always treated fairly and paid well and on time bi-weekly, with benefits.


 


If you are a recent MT graduate thinking about paying 99.00 to sign up for the intern program, that is a big mistake, there are other intern programs where you can find a job without you paying them (and sometimes even get a salary to boot, even though it is lower than a seasoned MT). My point is, there are many good opportunities out there and this is DEFINITELY not one of them.


 


I am posting this because I am a genuinely honest (and yes Christian) person and I should have known better, especially when I was not even tested. I don't want others to be cheated by this so called Christian organization.  If you ever get paid, it will take 2 or 3 months for one month pay and if you decide you can't afford to work there and quit, you forfeit all of your earnings and do not get paid period.


 


PLEASE BE CAREFUL!


If they do not have the integrity to stand up and say they have
enough staff, then I have lost all respect I had for any of them. Most of them have no ability anyway, so when they lose those jobs, they will be on the welfare lines.
Obviously I have more integrity than you do. Argue with yourself.
Good bye. You are a joke.
Integrity, any info on them? nm
Thanks!

Anyone else work or has worked for Integrity Transcription in Venice, Florida?  Do they pay on time?  How are the dictators and the owner? 


TIA


Integrity Transcription LLC, can anyone tell me....
about working for this company, have several concrete offers on the table, been doing searches, having problems finding information - is this a smaller company with a good MTSO?  I know they use emDat, is it hard to learn (I have almost 20 years on various others).  Any info SOOO appreciated!
Integrity Transcription
Anyone work for Integrity? Pros/Cons?
Anyone hear anything about Integrity?
Has anyone heard anything about a company named Integrity? I started there on May 12, 2008 and now have no work coming in. I am afraid this is a set up where they steal your money after working.
Integrity in transcription
You know why I won't just find another job (THIS TIME)? Because I've 'found another job' three times in the past two years now.

The first time, it was because all of my accounts were offshored to India.

The second time, it was because our line rates changed detrimentally, in the form of some REALLY sneaky line accounting and then eventually a move to not paying for templates, headers, or footers - even though the line rate that I had accepted with said company was based on the fact that they paid for these things (7.5 cpl BECAUSE of that, when I'd had a 8.5 cpl offer come in at the same time for a company who did NOT pay those things).

The third time, I left because I found out that the company I was working for was surreptitiously offshoring their work when they claimed to be 100% AMERICAN. And then I was asked to QA (for 3.5 cpl) the HORRIFIC work that the Indians had done.

How many times do I have to 'just find another job' because every single stinking company is backhanded and sneaky and doesn't hold up their end of the bargain and shafts the transcriptionists at every turn?

If you're okay with breaking the law (which I will address in another post), then that's on you.

I am not. And I am not interested in being complicit in someone else breaking the law. And, furthermore, I would prefer to pave the way for transcriptionists EVERYWHERE to not be taken advantage of. My measly 9 cpl that I make as an IC (and pay my OWN taxes, which makes it equal out to, yes, 7.5 cpl) is worth kissing goodbye for this.

I am unafraid.

Moreover, I am ready to give up transcription for good.

I've been witness to years and years of whining and moaning on this forum (and others) about how poorly we're all treated.

I am going to do something about it, even if it means sacrificing my job.

Eff. It's time someone actually did.
MDI = Mutation of D's Integrity
 
Honesty, Loyalty, and Integrity! sm
A company that will be honest, no matter what the cost. Integrity to keep our records and work in the USA. Loyalty to your entire staff, let them know how important they are to the company, as well as loyalty to your clients. Keep your TATs and promises to your clients. Keep your promises to your MTs.

A decent line rate such as 10 cpl or above and flexibility!

Hope that helps!

In reply to your question regarding Integrity.  It has to one of the greatest companies out there.  The owners are wonderful, honest and ahead of the rest.  I have worked for alot of companies and this has got to be the best one out there by far.  Pay is always on time, steady work, loyal and just all around great people.  If you have the chance I would suggest this company above all others before they are full....  Integrity, they stand by their name.  If you have any questions please let me know.  I'd be happy to answer any questions in regards to this company.  I've never been so happy.   Thanks!!

Out of Louisiana .... Looking for any information, pay, type of platform, pay on time, DD, etc.   I have applied, they have sent the tests and I have asked them now 3 times what is the starting pay for someone with over 20 years experience and have not received a response yet.  Just curious ...


TIA


Her soul, her integrity, her patriotism...
Yeah, actually she sold out kinda cheap, huh?

Or perhaps that really is all she was worth as a human being.

I'd rather exist on my salary than sell my soul (and the souls of 400+ others) to the devil for $16 million.

It's gonna be hot down there, D...better dress lightly :-)
Integrity Transcription Services, any one know anything about this company?
Good or Bad
Warning: Integrity Transcription Services
Integrity Transcription Services, LLC (www.itsintegrity.com) in Venice, FL, consistently pays late and might possibly be a nonpayer (still owes me money). Most e-mails and all IMs concerning past due checks were ignored by the owner. Stay away if you want to get paid on time.

I work there now and am very happy. Make a list of questions you have and when the supervisor calls you, make sure you ask them. That way you won't be misinformed by what you read on this board.
Welcome to Healthcare
Healthcare is a 24/7 industry. If you want to work Monday-Friday perhaps you should change jobs.
Meridian Healthcare

Meridian Healthcare used to be PTS. I worked for PTS, and we ran out of work a lot. There was very poor communication when I was there.  When work was low, manager wouldn't respond to emails or voice mail.


Hope that helps!

Need info on SPI Healthcare please.
thanks
Meridian Healthcare
I have been with Meridian for about 6 months now. The account I am on uses MedRite and is a pretty busy hospital account. My pay is good, always right,and always on time. The QA staff is great - I have learned a ton from them.

I have to submit a schedule every week with what I plan to work the following week, but it hasn't been a problem when I need to stray from that.

Overall, I am very happy. The platform is great. The account is fairly easily, though it has a few really tough ESLs, I am getting used to them. I have been able to create a ton of normals, so I am pretty fast. My account requires 12,000 lines a pay period to be eligible for PTO.

Good luck!
Meridian Healthcare

Does anyone currently work for this company or have you worked for them recently?  How is the pay?  Is the work acute care only?  What type of platform do they use?  Is there a minimum line requirement?


Thanks for any info.
