They have a great insurance program, and recently they increased their contribution so the rising fees for insurance would not impact their employees as much. Which I have never seen another company do. They are also bringing the HR in-house so that they can have more control of HR issues and probably be more in control of the kinds of rates for medical insurance etc. I have 2 great accounts and steady work, they give bonuses on top of bonuses when you help out extra. Plus they have unlimited patience with their MTs regarding flexibility. At least for me. I also did a minutes check. Per minute on an average of spoken dictation I get more lines with this company and incentive retroactive paid more than anywhere else, equal to a hospital job. This is even though they don't pay for headers and footers, but their dictators make up for that, and they spread the wealth around with normals v difficult dictators. So, all in all, I know after all my research I am retiring with this company, no doubt about it. And I am not an MTSO or cheerleader, just an old gal who has been around the block a bit. Good luck in your search.

Additional info

There are currently no weekend bonuses. It's the usual to run out of work evenings and weekends, especially on Sunday. Management has been specific that they want the work cleared out by the weekend. Yes, they have a newsgroup that MTs can use to ask questions and give each other normals or samples. They are growing rapidly and becoming less responsive. Not sure how you managed to produce 1500 lines a day -- were you on clinics or acute care? QA people have absolutely no contact with the MTs. I don't consider that supportive or helpful to the MTs at all. You can go in and review your reports once completed, but you cannot review your original report side by side with the finished report.
any additional news?
I understand they are not a large company, and having left myself due to the problems with payroll and bouncing checks etc, I am concerned for fellow MTs still working for them. Last I heard, several MTs were filing complaints with the District Attorney - hooray for you - may I also suggest the Attorney General for the State of PA? Bouncing checks is not a laughing matter, and when a company does this as often as D&L does, it is possible they are setting you all up for a bankruptcy, and as IC you will be incorporated into their claim and never get paid. Make contact now with those who can legally make them pay - one way or the other. And keep the board posted. No other MT should be placed in your shoes - and any outcome you have can help others with possible problems with other companies. Remember you are an independent contractor - not an employee, so you rights are a bit different, but a legal claim can be made - not through the labor board but through the DA or attorney general. I can tell you that the management of D&L think they are smarter than us - and that they are Teflon coated, able to get away with this, because they have for many years. Time to show them who is really in control. If you have had problems with them for payment of services and not gotten that check yet, or one that has bounced - file a claim for theft of services. Time to teach these companies that we mean business when it comes to our business.
Do you have any additional info
on GCTFL? Specifically, what type of platform do they use? Is it web-based or does it require a C-phone? Any idea on what their pay scale is like or incentives?
Just curious before I take the time to apply.
Have you asked to be put on an additional account? nm
Additional info on Task
I have been pretty proficient in this type of transcription for about seven years and it sounds like it is what they mostly offer. What is the low pay scale they offer and what type of a payment delay is expected if I decide to take on this company. How long have you worked for them? Thanks for the info! amj
I got the same automated email, but did not get any additional emails...
apparently the left hand is not aware of what the right hand is doing. I would not bother with them at this point since they apparently are not on top of things. I would think they would have shut off the automated reply or at least changed it seeing as they have an ad running...makes ya wonder.
1 extra hour per day in additional to regular shift...nm

Anyone know anything about Global Information Systems? Any information would be appreciated. nm
MedScribe Information Systems, Inc - Information please?
Anyone with information on this company?
Looking for information on QED. sm
I have never heard of them before. I read some old archives but am interested in hearing from any recent employees. I've heard the pay is low. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Information
Does anyone know anything about a company called Archivus?
SM for information.
An expander is a program in which you put in shortcuts to "expand" to longer words, sentences, and phrases. For example, typing "forex" produces "for example." They can be used for phrases like
tp for the patient
lt for left
rt for right
egdx for esophagogastroduodenoscopy
Shorthand and Instant Text are 2 of the most popular.

Does anyone have any information
TIA
Thank you for the information!
That is helpful.
Thanks for the information.
You were very kind to respond.
No, but if this were information
 that was really any of your business, you wouldn't have to ask.

Does anyone have any information
I have asked a few times and can find nothing when I do a search on them? TIA
A little information for you
I am not the original person who answered your post, but I also work for Amphion. When you are first hired with them, they will basically ask you what hours you plan on working. They are hours of your choosing, but they just ask that you try to stay working that schedule, so that they can provide adequate coverage on their accounts. They are, however, very accommodating should you need to change your schedule. They hire both part-time and full-time employee status. Very nice folks to work for! Good luck to you. 
Sorry, don't have information but would like to know
Thanks.
I like to come here for information..., sm
but by the time you wade through all the hateful remarks, it just makes you sick! I am very glad for the time spent on getting rid of some of the junk around here. 
Information
Can you email me with more information? Where are you located? How many MTs work for you currently? Thanks!
I'd appreciate any information on any of these, too
--but I can say I did consider FastChart a few years ago; my decision was between them and my current employer, for whom I work as an employee and not as an IC, as I would have with FastChart.
What killed my consideration of FastChart was the poor line rate; I believe it was 0.065/line at the time, and that, coupled with IC status and filing my own taxes, etc., just didn't beat EDiX's offer of 0.07/line plus benefits.
I'm most curious about Oracle and Proscript and appreciate the PS feedback already provided. At this point, I'll take any advice anyone offers, though. I just don't think the future at my present company is looking so bright.
Thanks, all.
There is quite a bit of information in the
archives on Spheris. I worked there and have posted much about them (positive experience). I even posted a lengthy comparison between Spheris and MedQuist.
If you will do a search, you will find plenty of information.
Thanks for the information!

Information (SM)
If you are referring to the parent company of MedQuist, you need to take this discussion to the MQ board.
ALL discussions about MQ are to be on that particular board.
I am letting your post stand for now to see if you will clarify if there is a private MTSO called Phillips MT that you are inquiring about.

Thanks for the information. sm
Everything that I heard about them was good, until I took the job offer, of course!
My information to do with what I want. sm
I agree it is crass to ask someone what they make. I do not agree that someone has the right to tell my personal information cannot be shared with whomever I chose to share it with.
Thanks for the information. - sm
I guess this should have been titled autotext or word Expander question! They (Futurenet) told me they have a Word Expander program, but I'm guessing they meant the autotext feature in MS Word.
Here is the information you are looking for - sm

More information

This is in addition to your line rate.
Where do you get your information?
Please let me know where you heard this because I have worked for Precyse for quite awhile, continue to have the same accounts (probably because they have a lot of ESLs and nobody else wants them). I do know they have some accounts and MTs testing it out, but are quick to tell us that with the problems all the other companies are having, they are quite hesitant about how efficient and productive it would be.
More information please!

Thank you all so much!
