Been with them since April
I have found the pay to be about average for the industry, but between the great platform and wonderful account I have, my line counts have greatly increased when compared to previous companies' counts. My line counts are always right on the money, the account I am on has probably 25% ESLs, but only a handful of tough ones. They ARE a nicer, kinder MT company (your description fits perfectly). I have found them to be very honest and true to their word. For now, sign me very happy camper.
april 15, I know about the 1/31 law, but...(sm)
some companies are more on the ball than others, as someone just posted in a new posting above. They got theirs 2 weeks into the new year.  Having only been with MDI-MD for a month in between jobs, I just wondered if they were a company that was on the ball and sent them sooner rather than later.  It's a moot point now with 1/31 being Wednesday. Thanks anyway.
I had been offered a job with them also in April
and did receive lots of acct specifics.  I didn't actually print it all out though.  It took forever for the acct to start and I actually ending up receiving a job offer to start the next day from another company, so I took that one instead.  Hopefully it will work out for you.
Christmas in April

Company bonus just extended....guess I didn't need to get up at 4 AM! 


Cyber-terrorists are horrible, but turned out to be a financial blessing.  Those of you who work for our company know what I'm talking about. 


Back in mid-April
I was asking about MTs and NOBODY would step up to the plate and answer me. Everybody kept referring me to those mysterious archives. And I never found anything on my repeated attempts at searching them.

Is everybody afraid to talk or what?
Post from April said 8.5 for a little or a lot of experience. nm

I left in April 2008

For me, it was the schedule.  I hate to be tied down.  On top of that, I hate being tied down and working on accounts that aren't mine.  Towards the end, though, the account situation was getting better for me.  I was getting mostly my primary and only 1 or 2 other accounts. 


Leading up to that was the paycut.  ASR was great in the beginning when we were getting paid regular pay for it, but when they cut us down to 70% and then took away the daily bonuses, my paycheck was pretty skimpy.  Add to the fact that I had gotten a raise in 5 years, it wasn't a hard decision.


People leave companies for all kinds of reasons.  Some we understand, some we don't.  The only one it should really matter to is the person leaving the company.  MQ was great for me in the early years, but it just went through too many changes for me.  I'm just glad I got out before the pandomonium of CBay hit.  I must have had a guardian angel looking out for me. 


I have worked at Mediscribes since April 07
I have never had a problem getting paid, have always gotten immediate tech support, and cannot imagine a more competent group of people to work for. Any doubts about working for Mediscribes, please ask away. I love my job. And anybody who would like to air their complaints, please let us know how long you have been with the company. It's easy to be new and run into some problems. How you react/learn/resolve those problems defines your success with the company. It's all part of the process. Mediscribes is looking for competent, hard-working, honest team players who are secure enough with their skills to learn to type for many clinics. If you meet those qualifications, you will get regular work. SIMPLE AS THAT.
Must be an April Fool's joke!
She does say, Don't waste my time and don't waste yours.  Couldn't have said it better myself. 
Back in April they did -- hated that platform!!
One of the main reasons I left.
Benes
WebMedX is less expensive and although Medware's ins. is okay, WebMedX is better, IMO. You can ask their recruiters - they will give you that information. They understand you need to make an informed decision. I've worked for both companies.
I get 11 cpl but still wish I had benes..nm
.
How's the pay/benes? Do they
pay for spaces, headers/footers, demos, etc.? I wish we had a chart that showed who pays for what & their average pay range... ;)
Not the lowest! Was offered 2cpl back in April.

Benes for less than 35 hours

S.O.A.P. does.  Great to work for too!


With 10+ yrs, 9 cpl is okay as an employee with benes,
but not good as an IC. You can do better than that.
What are the benes like at Focus?
(Specifically, for QA/QC/auditors.)  How much PTO do you get, is health insurance expensive, etc.  Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Use ExText software, 150 lph to get benes, pay is 7.4-10 cpl. nm

Don't know about benes, but some places inside
SPI/Cymed (32 hrs?? maybe).  Opti-Script (min. of 35 hrs), Northeast Transcription (32 hrs/1000 lpd, but pay on 70-char. lines at 7-8 cpl).  Transolutions (32 hrs), SOAP Transcription (32 hrs), and Med-Scribe, Florida (35 hrs). This is not recently dated information and may have changed since last obtained. nm
Yes, they offer benes, std 90-day wait....sm
Insurance very affordable. Pay on time, direct deposit. Seem to have plenty of work and set you up with more than 1 account as necessary. DVI platform.
The letter said that the STM has the discretion to not let your benes be s/m
affected. I would not take that as gospel in this day and age.
Wanted to add, that's as an employee with benes.

Yes, and also figured into that is the loss of benes,
sick days, PTO, insurance, etc., that you would get with employee status.
Good line rate, benes and ins.
Have been with Webmedx a while and they offer BCBS, Delta Dental, disability and life ins, plus PTOs.  Line rate,  supervision, work platform and company are all awesome in my book.  Been an MT for 20 years....Good luck.  Hope this helps. 
Old posts had them starting at 6 cpl and topping out at 9 cpl. Don't know about any benes. nm
s
Hahaha. Good April Fool's Day joke but gotta break the news to ya,
:+
Seems fair, especially if there is a 90 day waiting period for benes just like a new hire. nm
.
8 hrs & 1100 lpd have to occur for FT benes. FT pay 8.5 cpl. People have had trouble with paychecks
/
I applied recently. They want 1000 lpd, use an FTP site. Didn't say anything about benes for FT.
