Hello out there! Would anyone have any info on this company?  Any info appreciated!  They are running an ad on one of the other transcription sites.

TIA!

Well thank you Very Much for your response!

Can anyone tell me how the work is done?  Do you have a platform?  Do you continuously type or do you have to save out each patient?

Thanks.

What is the platform like that Freedom Type uses?  Hard to get used to or up and running immediately?

Do they hire IC?  Do they have their own software, or can you use MS Word?  C-phone or FTP?  Are you able to have your own account, or do you get switched around at lot? 

Thank you for any info. 

Does anyone know anything about this company?  I am not sure what to think.  Please help.

frequent this board. How is pay, benefits, work load. Still owned by Tampa couple?

have been protected from the realities of the world for decades now.  I have contact with them daily-you should hear them cry and complain over having to pay $4 a pay period to cover their family's health insurance.  Co-pay for a Rx went up from $2 to $5?  Oh, the complaining about what a raw deal they get.

These people all have cottages to summer in, multiple vehicles for business, leisure and sports and the rest of us have slaved.  No company EVER promised to take care of its employees for life.  We MTs have known that for years and now these people also can find this out.

You just summed that up for me.  I am glad you told the truth in that you like using slaves to transcribe who are none the wiser. 

As an IC, I choose my own hours, days, lines, etc.  You as an MTSO consider that whining, when it is the law. 

So if you sleep at night knowing you are abusing and mistreating offshore workers, then good for you!  It actually just proves you have no heart.

Another point I'd like to make is that if you need subs to make you money, you must be a horrible Transcriptionist yourself. 

Any doctor that old me he doesn't care who types, when, and how would be off of my list of good doctors and I wouldn't waste my time.  That doctor obviously doesn't care about people but only his own pocket and that would include you as the MTSO.  That same doctor that told you he/she doesn't care will drop you as an MTSO in a minute when he/she finds a better deal.

Always remember, we reap what we sow.  Try and have a good day, master!

I agree with the above poster. If you can't vent to people who are in the field about your good or bad experiences, then this is not a democracy. Personally, I do keep a lot of mine to myself basically because I don't like dealing with negative people who will judge me. It stems from not having a very supportive family and not being able to express myself growing up. What is heaven for one is hell for another but either way, people need to express themselves and get it out.

In this profit-driven healthcare industry, MTs are under appreciated and in many cases abused by management and perhaps isolated and ignored by other MTs. We definitely need a support system and these forums are supposed to serve as a support system out of the work place where we can vent and hopefully be comforted by kind words. We work in an industry that refuses to acknowledge the fact that if it were not for us, they would not have jobs. We are the industry but many of us do not feel we have much clout in the way we are treated, i.e. coldly, indifferently and there-are-more-where-you came from attitude. Lets start cooperating instead of competing especially in the forums and let people have their say and try to embrace with kindness. We all need a pat on the back.
