But the company is Medical Bazaar in Illinois.
Who are the contacts for this job? Beware of ANY NEW company in Illinois. NM

Does anyone know anything about a company called Chart Notes out of Illinois - sm
Do they offshore? They claim to have transcriptionists with 10-12 years experience. Any info on this company or experience anyone has had with this company would really help us out.
Do not be paranoid. I'm not with Shapin. Its a small company in Illinois.
Jayne, I didn't have to do anything special. I have
my SmarType running with MS Word and when my Word program opens SmarType is running with it. Load your SmarType and see if it will automatically start running when you open your Word program.
Be careful of what you say about TT or any company.
After last week's blood bath, TT already said they will sue people if untruths are stated on this board. I myself would not want to be sued over something like this. Just IMHO. I happen to like the place. And would not want to see any trouble started either for anybody's sake.
Be careful with them, not a very honest company.

Lots of people have been burned by them..be careful, very careful. NM

he did not ask about working for another company
nm
we must be working 4 the same company
very cold shouldery there, always been that way - no big fuzzy welcome wagon. Emotionally u are pretty much on your own.
IC's working more than one company
Any IC's out there working for more than one company? It seems that has happened to me obviously part time. Do you like doing this, the variety or is it constantly confusting.
Quig
Are you currently working for such a company?

Working for the company
I have certain days that I work, I have worked holidays but this is no different from years in the business, just part of MTing as it is a 24/7 job. This is a medical job. Nurses have to work holidays. I see no difference. I have certain hours that I work and if I ask to juggle around hours during that day, no problem on this end.
I am working for a company, only been
there about 7 or 8 weeks. Started out on a platform. The hospital account then upgraded this platform (ha) to a supposedly better version. Get it upgraded. The first day for the first 6 hours of my shift, they couldn't get the stupid program going. They finally get it going and spell check doesn't work right. Doesn't recognize medical words and won't let you add new words to the dictionary. This particular hospital has 2 sections. In order to get to the different section of the hospital to transcribe a report, you have to come all the way out of the system and log back on. You may have to log on and off 10, 15 times a day depending on what job comes to you. No rhyme or reason to the way it qeues jobs. Just randomly switches you back and forth, back and forth to the different areas of the hospital. I'm just about to go nuts. Working at Wal-Mart, McDonald's, cleaning commodes, anything, is looking better than this. Sorry for the long post. Just had to take a break and vent before I explode!!!!!!!!!!!
If you are working for such a company,
You should be able to find the form on the IRS website.
If I were you - I would rethink working for a company. sm
See if the hospital will allow you to work as a remote employee (from home). That would be your best bet.
Not an honest company. I was working
On a big hospital account they acquired, always working extra, putting up with all the problems, platform issues, downtime etc. - one day, went to log on and my user name/password were invalid. Couldn't get anyone to answer me from tech services, nor my supervisor, etc. - finally saw them posting advertisements for the hospital account I was working on stating no IC. It would have been nice if they would have done the admirable thing and TOLD us they were discontinuing IC on that account, rather than just rudely make our sign-in invalid. Thankfully I work as an IC for someone else too - I don't trust this business enough to work for just one company. But, out of all the companies I've dealt with or worked for, by far, Transcend was the worst. You might get 500 e-mails a day, then try to rach someone and get no response for a week. Tech support - that's a joke. You e-mail them with a problem and then sit not getting paid until one of them gets around to calling you. Don't waste your time or talent - there are other places. Just skip by this one ... believe me, you'll be thanking all of us later for telling you these stories. Oh, I did the VR training too - pitiful.
I think we are working for the same company on the same account.
I have a pillow-talking female dictator on my secondary account as well. Little to no work on my primary. It took 40 minutes to transcribe 36 lines with 16 blanks. E-mail me if you want.
I wonder if you're working for the same company as me - nm
x
No. In Illinois.
They do not offshore.
185 lines? The company I'm working for wants 250......what is the average???? Anyone???
Thanks!
Going through the same thing. Wondered if you are working for the same company..
Can you give us a clue who you are talking about. I think it is who I also work for if their name just has initials. If it is, then I will tell you what a big part is...they are overhiring for the wrong accounts and acting desperate on other accounts. Ridiculous. Someone does not know how to organize the work flow.
I am working on Extext platform for another company
huge difference in line count, same type of reports, same hours. I can nearly double what I did there in the same amount of time. I don't know quite what the problem is but a lot of people have complained about it and we still haven't gotten an answer to our satisfaction. I have talked to people who left there and who posted their story here and elsewhere and they got a threatening letter from the company attorney. Absolutely no grounds for this, folks are just relating their experience.
Company Focus Informatics, Inc. Anyone working there please let me know how it is. nm
:
Probably each company has their own rules, but when I was working in a hospital sm
generally, it was 7a-3p for first, 3p-11p for second, and 11p-7a for third, not including lunch breaks.
Hope this helps. 
Why would you keep working for a company for 3 months without being paid? sm
I'm sorry this happened to you, but when the first month's check didn't arrive, that would have been it. I still enjoy transcribing (most days) but not enough to do it for free.
Good luck to you in getting your money That's an awful thing to happen to anyone.
Aren't you the one working for a company you hate? How
is that any different. You're selling your soul to the devil, just like you say others are. A job now will help you prepare for later so you aren't living under a bridge, revolting and quitting will guarantee you'll be living under that bridge, sooner rather than later. I'm not saying so oh well such is life, but continue to work while you make other plans, either going to school or paying off debt, but to quit work, especially in a recession is not the right thing to do. I believe in being self-sufficient, providing for the needs of my family, but if I quit either my kids go hungry or I depend on someone else to feed them and that is benig irresponsible. I don't work for WMX now, I'm proud to say I'm an ex-webber, and my kids wouldn't go hungry tomorrow or even next month if I quit. I sure wouldn't condemn someone for doing whatever it takes to provide for their family.
If it is the one in Illinois, all is good!! nm

I am no longer working there. I had enough of their crap. I found a much better company

Every American MT should boycott working for any company that outsources! n/m
GRRRRR!
If you don't mind working for a completely Indian-run company
Been there, done that 3 years ago...never again.
A company/MTSO can offer an IC a job working certain hours
that they need coverage, and it's up to the IC to agree to working those hours, or not take the job.
If you hired an IC to repair your roof, would you want him working daylight hours, or since he's an IC can he work on the roof from midnite to 8 a.m. if he wants?
How is Transolutions, Inc. out of Illinois to work for?
Would like to know about platforms, pay days how often, and any other pertinent info you all might have regarding this company, specifically for radiology work. TIA
Transcription Services of Illinois
Does anyone have any information on this company? I've been contacted by them and have had several email conversations with one person in particular. She seems pretty sure about wanting me to help out and said she would contact me today but so far I have not heard from her, even after sending an email to her regarding this this morning. Just wondering if I should persue this or not. Thanks in advance.
Words R Us out of Illinois ? Is this legit?
TSI Illinois? Just found old info - help please
Any info on this company is greatly appreciated. I have done a search but seems info is old and mostly negative. If anyone can provide updated info, that would be welcome.
Anything on Southern Illinois Transcription
I am just curious if they have good accounts, what type, VR or straight typing? Are they a good company to work for? Do they pay at least 8 cpl? Thanks
Southern Illinois Transcription...from below...sm
 Please steer clear of this one. the owner is rude, moody, and sends out emails YELLING (all caps) Threatening and if you try to contact other MTs who work on the same account with you, she gets hightly ticked off. I told her she was crazy and then was gone! Maybe she needed medication or something.
interesting. Here is TSI illinois info

No, I haven't been. I told my true experience of working for that company.
I don't have a negative attitude. You're the one who can't handle it when someone disagrees with you.
Anyone sight impaired working for a caring company? Please contact
s
In retrospect, I shouldn't have named my company because truly I do love working for them and sho
assume this was just a payroll error. So, that's what I'm thinking until I know better. If I did lose my insurance without any notice, then I would not be a very happy camper and would do what I needed to do. But, in the meantime, they have been great to work for...
I have a friend working in a hospital and she is looking for a company from home as an employee.
Would anyone care to recommend a good company?
And you're okay with working for a company that sends most of its work to India and
whose workforce is predominantly Indian? You're okay with the loss of American jobs, the falling recession we are in and the falling economy due in big part to the offshoring of American jobs? How okay will you be when you lose your job to an Indian and you have to apply for food stamps and unemployment?
Sell-out MTs like you are the reason good MTs cannot make a decent wage anymore, why good MTs cannot find a good job anymore, and why sweats shops in third world countries are thriving. How do you look at yourself in the mirror?
Focus Infomatics employs 800 American MTs and over 3000 Indian MTs. Tech support is in India. The company itself is still run by the same Indian man who started the company and sold out to Nuance. He made a bundle when he sold and he is still making a bundle running the company while he pays his own countrymen and woman peanuts! He's selling out his own people and you are selling out yours! On second thought, I guess you belong at Focus with your own kind!
