Can't live on $35K in California either.

I think California employees pay into their own unemployment - nm

Only hire as employee if they have 50 employees in the state you live in. NM
My state would never be one.
diskriter employees - sm
anything for MT week??? Just curious - I didn't, but I see that they gave out an American Express gift cheque as a prize.
Any Diskriter employees out there?
I see some old post 2004 on this company but does anyone work with or have any bad or good experiences they wish to share. They have posted a weekend shift I'm curious about. Can email if you wish. Thanks in advance.
Diskriter employees?
Save yourself time, ask if there are any EX-Diskriter employees out there, you will get more answers, faster!!
Even Diskriter employees have to
have the drug test, background check, etc. Not just the employees they hire for the hospital.
Current employees of Diskriter
Can people who currently work for Diskriter email me? I was offered a position there yesterday and want to talk to someone who is there now and can offer some insight on this. Thanks in advance.
Current Diskriter employees
I am looking to chat with people who currently work at Diskriter. I have seen a lot about this company good and bad and want to talk with someone who works there at the present time.
Diskriter used to have something in place like this, too, regarding NY employees. Had to

Any DiskRiter employees on M-Modal yet?
Anybody switched over to this platform yet? How is it?
Are there any current Diskriter Employees here?
I would like to hear from anyone currently working for Diskriter. I am not interested in hearing from former employees at this time as I have read the archives, which is why I would like to hear opinions from current employees or recent new hires only. Thanks!
Any Diskriter employees out there? You happy with them? nm
Any info from an insider appreciated. Thanks.
Diskriter Florida hospital employees
Would anyone that works for the Florida hospital as a hospital employee through Diskriter care to share their experience? Any info is appreciated, good or bad. Thanks! Have a great and productive day! 
Diskriter--Anyone know if they have decent insurance rates for their employees??
Any help is appreciated.
Why so very few comments regarding Diskriter? Are comments by employees not permitted SM
on public forums. I have always been interested to see comments on this company, as they are constantly advertising and seem to have an attractive employee package. Unfortunately, never seeing comments on MT boards makes me extremely uneasy. I'm sure they could have stipulations in their contracts that prevent them from commenting, but even so I would expect to see good or bad comments even from ex-employees. Hmmm? Plus, if the anonymity is supposed to be in place on these boards, how can it hurt for employees to make a general comment, good or bad?
I don't know where you live but where I live foreclosures are rising and there are no jobs -- non
I worried about my employer for part of the winter as my accounts grew sparse. I had plan to switch to being an employee with benefits but dared not make the switch in this economy (this was last year this time, got it?)
I figured keeping my seniority was worth whatever security it afforded.
My accounts have rebounded some and I can pay my bills.
By economizing seriously, I have paid off my credit card and put some money aside, just in case. I'm breathing easier, thanks.
So, all in all, I'm not complaining. This last winter was brutal, but I had a job and I paid my bills. When employment rebounds and/or national health goes into effect, people will go to the doctor again and we will be busy.
My part of the world is like a ghost town -- everyone who could left to find work in the city -- many apparently leaving their homes to the banks. Several houses in my vicinity have been on the market more than 4 years.
Forgive me my loyalty ... it pays the bills.
What does yelling at the rest of us do for you?
It depends on where you live. If you live in their
service area it would be cheaper than outside their service area. I only have rates for out of service area and medical is 139.13 for family or 168.42 depending on what plan you choose. Dental is 20.85 for family, vision is 5.13. These are per pay period.
Individual coverage would be 44.79/54.21 medical, 7.99 dental, and 1.71 vision.
I opted out of insurance as we have through my husband's job. I believe the cheaper insurance is a 70/30 plan and the more expensive an 80/20, not sure about co-pays. Deductibles are $2000 for family, not sure about individual.
Oh for sure employees, but not too often for statutory employees. Sorry for confusion.

Attn: Any Transcend employees or former employees
I have been offered a job with Transcend, but I am not completely sure about it yet and I need some input from you guys. I have read positives and negatives regarding this company but alot of it was pretty old information. Can anyone give me some recent feedback on them? Thanks very much!!!
Thanks! and not in California
Thanks for the good wishes. We are not in California-we live in Nevada. Like I said, I've known her for years and she's always known I was a transcriptionist--thank goodness! In light of the decline in pay we've seen in recent years, this was just a great offer!
DRC, California
Any info. on Digital Records Corp. in California?
DRC California
Have been there almost 2 years. They have been good to me. Work is good - less ESL's than most. Benefits could use a little work, but better than some companies. Insurance is expensive for dependents. Hope this helps.
WPU in California
Has anyone ever heard of WPU out of California? Thida Win is in charge. Thanks.
MTs from California
My company won't hire from California either. They said they can't afford to pay what the California MTs want because of their higher cost of living. All CA resumes go in the trash unread. Just passing on what I heard.
TTD, INC in California
Anyone have any info on this company? Looks like the pay is pretty low, but other than that, anyone have any experience with them? Good or bad? TIA
You should be in California--
the entire state is being overrun with people who cannot speak English.
DRC was in California... sm
Acusis is in India and headquartered in Philly. DRC was in California. Acusis bought DRC, and so then DRC became Acusis US.
If someone slips up and says DRC, they really mean Acusis US, not Acusis India.
Confused yet???
Any info on DRC out of California? sm
Line rate, platform, insurance? Any information appreciated.
Anyone know anything about AssistMed in California? TIA

I use Meditech in California
If you have some specific questions, feel free to ask.

Walnut Creek, CA
Chronicle California
Anyone work for them? How is/was it? Thanks in advance.
Seem like they were in California but I'm not sure if that is where all of their accounts are.
I think for the most part people have said good things about them. I talked to one person who had worked there a few years and said there seemed to be a high turnover but no more than anywhere else. She also said a lot of days it was really tough to get the line count as some of the accounts were harder than others. That is all I know and they really don't sound any different than any other company out there. You never know until you try.

I was also wondering the ease of the equipment that the company uses and degree of ESL dictators. I tried to research this company, and past comments have stated that they pay once a month.
Outsourcing in California
Not true - I live in California and many transcription companies outsource offshore. In fact, it's a trend that is increasing.
Snobbing California
OSi shouldn't be posting it as a United States: Nationwide position if they won't consider hiring from California. It wastes people's time applying and waiting for a response when they have no intention of using people from here. Chumps.
Are you a California resident?
If so, if a company ran a credit check without your permission they could be liable for 10,000 in damages. CA Civil Code §1785.20.5, 1786.12 explain and §1786.50 explains damages.
If you are not CA resident, Google your state civil codes credit reporting employment, etc. I would also send a certified letter to the credit bureau who ran your report and tell them this was an unathorized inquiry and you would like it removed.

FutureNet in California sm
Does anyone know if the lady that runs this is the same one who used to be with the old company YOG?
Chronicle in California
Anybody heard of this company? How is their platform? Do they pay on time? How is QA? TIA
J&J transcription-California
Anybody got any pros/cons re: these people?
In California hospitals
things are especially tense. The unemployment rate in California is 12.5% and the state is ready to go bankrupt. I am just ashamed and disgusted that such a beautiful state has gone the way it has.
Please DO NOT mislead the MTs in California
You might want to look this up before you resume doing business in California:
http://www.edd.ca.gov/Jobs_and_Training/Layoff_Services_WARN.htm#How%20Do%20I%20File%20a%20WARN%20Notice
It's my belief that California also has bumping rights based on Seniority. As I understand, if the person(s) who laid off people for no reason at all (which violates the covenant of good faith and fair dealing under California law and for termination in violation of California's public policy which defeat the at-will employment in California) lacks seniority at the company, then he/she can be bumped off by someone with higher seniority than him/her and with equal or more qualifications than him/her at the company.
In such a case, that person(s) who started the unfair layoffs would just be waking up a sleeping enemy!
You need that money in California
Fresno area's not quite as bad, but in the SF suburbs, it's $1000/month for a 600 square foot studio. Even at 10 cents a line, you've got to do a lot of lines to handle that. It's one the biggest reason I moved to the midwest.
What you get here compared to California
Had my SIL visit last year from Sacramento, CA and she could not believe what we paid for our home. She estimated my home and the homes around in the $500,000 range and up, which was more than most the homes here. I watch the home shows and shocked at what some people settle for when looking for a home there. They have nothing to show for say a home $200,000 or more. I used to live in Atlanta but moved to a more rural area where you can get a show piece for not that much.
California Transcription
Just wanted to warn anybody who may consider taking a position with this company. The pay is never on time. I'm still waiting to get paid for work done in JULY and today is September 27. And to anyone who starts to accuse me of libel--this is the truth and I can prove it. I can also prove that when asked about my paycheck, they lied to me and said it was in the mail, and it was not. And yes, I have reported it to authorities. Just wanted to warn anyone else who might get taken in by them. . . hope I can help someone else avoid the same pitfalls I've fallen into with these people (the Bartons).
Florida or California? Looks like there are several.

they told me they were in California nm

very similar situation here in California
Main office in Ontario, California. What a mess. The US owner (great person) thought it was going to be good thing but it turned out bad for her and the US MTs.
I'd like to work for a California company.
Working for an east coast company doesn't work so well because their TAT comes halfway through my workday.
Kaiser permanente california
Anybody have any knowledge/experience working for Kaiser in California?
