Still awaiting pay for work done on June 20th.  Invoice was due June 25th and still not paid yet.  Good thing I only lasted ONE day with them due to the rudeness, hatefulness, and flat out mean ladies who both run the business and both tell you something completely different.  No it is not a lot of money, but hey if I could afford  to work for FREE, I'd go volunteer at Hospice since I will be there someday.  I do not put up with companies skipping out on paying whether it is $0.01 or $1000.00 owed so had to share my experience in hopes this will prevent someone in the future from getting taken as I did.  I spent 2 days wasted away from my kiddos for the mere little bit I did make that I will probably never see, what a shame!  Had to drop everything for them because they were DESPERATE for someone to start immediately and help them get caught up. 

Why is it these company email you nonstop and call you when they need work done and beg but when you need paid, silence it is?  Guess I will be figuring out that clinic's number to let them know I need paid since I cannot get it out of the company.   

Let's see..........RED FLAGS.  Boy did I see some and ignored them.  Man I must be blind or desperate I guess. 

1.  If a company calls you with a blocked number and never gives you their number.......RUN!!  (something to hide possibly?)

2.  If a company sends you emails with made up names.  No real names ever given.  RUN!!  I assume the company name is correct as that was used in the ad here on MTStars and in their email but cannot verify the name.  Never heard of it before.  If anyone knows anything about them, please email me.  From my limited information they go by Angie and Barb. 

3.  If you have two bosses that cannot get their stuff straight.......RUN!!

4.  Those desperate for help immediately are the ones desperate enough to not pay.........RUN!!  (I take it as desperate for help because the way the business is ran).

5.  No contract whatsoever.........RUN!!

6.  No SS# asked for........RUN!!  (guess they didn't need SS# since they had no intentions of paying!) 

7.   Will not tell you where the location of the clinic is or the company is when asking merely to look up referring docs info........RUN!! 

8.   Says your pay is contingent upon clinic paying.......RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (All kinds of excuses can be made as to the clinic not paying and how are you to know they aren't lies ~ anyone running a business should have means to pay their MTs or don't be in business). 

9.  If they say they sent you tons of samples and tons means ONE......RUN!!!!

10.  If they don't tell you how they want your lines calculated and you can in no way come up with the same line count (under).......RUN!! 

11.  If they say they have sent you several emails that you know for a fact you have not gotten, those are all lies.......RUN! 

Oh man, I am sure there are tons of others but my brain is tired from working so hard for a company that cares.  If you have anymore RED FLAGS for us hard working MTs working for pennies, please add to my list and have a good rest of the weekend!

I've been with them a few weeks now and it looks like I've found a new home. Hoping to meet some other MTs working there....if you're with UST and so inclined, drop me an e-mail and say hello.  

Since the State Board for Iowa hasn't been used since 2006 I am posting this message here.

I took a job with a company in Iowa earlier this year.  I have 2 children and have to meet her courier every morning to pick up my work which is on tapes.  I also had to buy extra insurance because according to her this is mandatory HIPPA regulation.  Then I find out that she leaves tapes in another MT's mailbox AND sends the cassette files (digitally somehow) to MTs that live 20+ miles away.  I'm only making a little over .06/line and getting my children ready every morning can be a chore.  Meanwhile, this woman takes more vacations and has diamonds on all fingers.  Today will be my last day.  She should be ashamed of herself for treating her MT's like that.  We are the ones that pay for her vacations and diamonds.  Can anyone say Greeeeeeeeeeeeed?

The woman that owns the company is crazy.  She treats physical therapy like it's acute care.  They are office visit notes and she acts like they are Op notes and the doctor is breathing down her back waiting for them to be typed.  The physical therapist could care less ------- it's an exercise class lady - get over it.  At 6 cpl she wants a miracle. 

Webmedx, Medscribe, Diskriter, Transcend, Transolutions.  Not sure about your other questions though.

Good Luck!

MedQuist cares so little about quality it isn't funny. 

QA has now turned into MME (Master Medical Editor).  Most of the work is being diverted to India now.  The MME does QA work, editing and transcribing.  More of the last two in what I have seen myself. 

I have a feeling that India is doing most of the QA work now because it has cut back so drastically, at least for me.  It is going somewhere, but I know it hasn't been coming to me.  My guess would be India because they got all of the good clients now anyway. 

I would stay far away from MQ.  I honestly would.   

Here is the list I put together earlier this year.  I am not sure if these companies still provide computers or not.  Some provide a computer with a rental fee, some provide a computer without any fee, and some say they have computers available if needed.  Hope this helps. 

I have not typed out my email address due to my email making it obvious of who I am to my current employer but would really appreciate it if you could click on my email link and send some information to me also!

Thank you for your help and your willingness to share information!
