Then when we MT's are **thrown on** an account because of lack of work on our account
What is so hard to understand about that?
Then we have that account info filed away in a folder in our Outlook Express by name of account and can look at past emails sent out regarding that account. Not fun to be tossed on an account that you have never seen NOR ever received an email on. Sounds like business to me.
My account has lots of work..ask for another account/nm

Maybe is it for a particular account. I work M-F. You are required to work one weekend an month.

I used to work there and know people who still do...they have no work on clinic account but if you
are acute care or have experience in acute care you will be fine...
I work for them, have no problems with the account/work - sm
New insurance plan went into effect - I think it is really good, but that's just my opinion. They send you the equipment. They have incentive. I like it. Can't complain.
What account do you work?
/
Do you work on a VA account? nm
.
Could be the account too, I don't know how they work out their pay...
but maybe it could be based on whatever the account is willing to pay. Not sure!
What account do you work on? My
accounts are rarely out of work.
you must be on the same account I am on. Not enough work
Not making enough money for family.
Don't see how we can be out of work when new account
to protect them, but what about us MT's waiting for work. Interesting when I hit my 3-month anniversary with TransTech, my work disappeared. I am not sure what to think of TT at this time ... No matter how nice someone is -- supervisor, office staff, etc.), if there is no work, WORK is what pays my bills.
So do you work the ER account or
do you work their acute care accounts. He said that the pay is figured differently and that there is no 12-hour window with ER because of the require TAT.
I am just looking for a permanent home where I can stay, instead of signing on and then finding that the line requirement is impossible because there are so many residents, PAs, NPs, and ESLs who are not organized, so leave huge blank areas on the audio or they are constantly saying go back and change, go back and add, etc, that your production is shot. Get a great audio minute count, but they never seem to look at that.
I have a lot of work. I was going to say that maybe it was just your account, but your on 7?? WOW..
I would double check that something funky isnt going on with your work queue. Maybe, it's not opened up all the way you get different work types etc.
I don't work on that particular account but . . SM
right now work is slow on every account.
Wonder if you work on a different account? NM
sssssss
I work that account. It isn't all that bad. sm
I've had worse too.
I work for MQ and have 1 ER account. I did
400 lines in one hour last night, straight transcribing, no speech recognition. Unfortunately, it's only an overflow account. When I do my regular 2 accounts, horrible, crappy teaching hospitals with idiot residents who rotate out every 3 months and are replaced with a new group of idiots, I only do about 175 lph. I love ER.
I work on there (if it is the same account). sm
I have been with KS a few years now and this is a great account IMO. Contact JW directly, as she is the lead, and she can help you. If not, call Becky at the office as she is over all the leads.
I'm looking for an account I used to work on.
Is it okay to ask about a specific account on this forum? A couple of years ago, I worked for a known transcription company who serviced an account that I really loved, but I understand that company no longer has the account. Now that I'm looking to get back into transcription, I would love to return to that account--but I don't know the transcription company who has the account at this time. I'm sure some of you must work on it, but is it okay to specifically name a particular hospital/clinic here? TIA.
I am on that account and you can work more than that. sm
Also, they raise your pay on there quickly!
There's no work on the account I'm on,
a backup twice and no answer twice. Luckily (or not) I don't have much of a life and can take 12 hours plus to get my lines in and end up making pretty good money.
Other than that, I'm satisfied working for them, although I've only been there 2 months. Is there a holiday differential? I don't recall hearing anything about that?
Hospital Account Work
Go to mtdaily.com and check on their jobs page. There are numerous. Diskriter has issues; be careful. Of course, all places of employment have those, but some you have to be very careful with. It is great to work at home, and there are some great employers. If you don't need benefits, I'd suggest working as an independent contractor as you can set your own hours. However, if you need more discipline and the benefits, working for a national company might be great for you. Good luck.
I worked on that account for a while and want to work on it again. nm
h
I work for that account from home and it is
a great money maker. You have to move to Wisconsin for 6 months to train, though.
I have plenty of work on my account, just having a little .... SM
trouble getting my line count up. I'm beggining to think I'm getting old and slowing down too much to be on a new account and new system. Very disappointed in this.
I work for MDI-FL and the account I am on has been slow *sm*
for over a month. I will not make enough this past pay period to cover the cost of long distance and my Internet connection. I know they have other accounts that are behind that you can work on but I personally feel the account I am working on is so slow because they overhired on it. Why did they not put those extra people on one of the accounts that is consistently backed up? I am in the process of testing for employment elsewhere. Other than this recent issue with no work/overhiring, I have always been happy with MDI. I will be sorry to leave but I am sure that the others working on the account will be happy to see me go as it will be one less person taking their lines.
Lots of work on my account... but I saw the
intrascript e-mail too. I am sure if you do not have enough work you can go on it. Contact the office.
I also work on the oncoloyg account...
and besides the usual Holiday slowdown, I was asked to work extra today and this weekend if possible, and I'm part time. I've been there for a month only, though, but in that time, I have not run out of work at all except during the holidays.
It's just that I work for a company who had an account .... sm
that was partly taken over by Focus. That is to say, we lost part of that account to Focus. The platform used is Escription, but my company is not part of Focus.
I have been bouncing around from one account to another, and now they are all out of work!
Trying to hang in there, but I need to work, not sit around waiting for work to MAYBE roll in.
I work on the eScription account.
I know I was hired because I needed no training for the software. I don't think they have the time or manpower to train people on the software. They want people to be able to jump right in.
I work on an account that sounds just like the one being described. sm
The difference is that I stayed with it and make excellent money. There has been a lot of MTs removed and moved, but it is a challenging account in terms of difficulty level. I love it now. The funny thing is that you are all arguing a point that you know nothing about. No one can know what an account is like in a day or a week. Several of us have been on it since KS get it over a year ago and it has grown from a 2-person account to a 10-person account and I heard it will be growing again. This is because KS is willing to only put their best MTs on there and will remove those that cannot handle it. This is NOT a bash at anyone's skills, just a fact that this is a hard operative notes account. I might be good at it, but it is my personal specialty.
It also IS internet, not c-phone.
Same here, nothing sold, just account is gone and no work for me sm
unless they can get more accounts to come on.
Well I hope you get an account with work
>:(
Is their Meditech account out of work too?
I was thinking about applying because I know the platform and could use a big sign-on bonus.
I believe she said the account manager, someone at her work
I thought I read that the OP said that the person at her work was getting angry with people asking questions. That's who I meant.
Ask for a different account, they have plenty of work. sm
I asked for another account and was placed on one within a week. The funny thing is that I went from Chartscript to Meditech and prefer Meditech! It is straight typing without having to worry about key combinations for bold or underline or anything else. Different strokes for different folks (no pun intended).
Wish someone would get the account I used to work on that C-Bay got. Wish I knew what
account Webmedx got.
Not sure what account they have you on ...but I'm swamped with work..
I definitely would ask for another account. It is rare that there would not be any work. I work two accounts and sometimes my primary does get low but there is always a backup account. This just doesnt seem right. Even over the holidays, they were screaming for help on the accounts I was on..
It could be that you are on the wrong account, there is a lot of work.
Things are busy. If you'd like, send me a private e-mail. I think I can help.
I work on ane-scription account
It must just be fior escription MTs. Sorry. For all I know, it might come out of the supe's pocket. I have not heard of a $25 gift certificate from Wal-Mart, but that would be nice.
plenty of work on my account
x
I work on DSG-2 and one account the sound can be sm
horrible but the other accounts are pretty good. No real problems with sound.
Will you be allowed to work any new account that comes in as your third (sm)
or does it have to be in your STMs group of accounts?
I would rather work on 1 account and make more money, than 5 different ones! No thanks. sm
I think their new program absolutely sucks and there are a heck of a lot of people who say the sound quality is horrendous. I wasn't sticking around to find out. I made my decision as soon as I saw what it was about and knew it would slow me way down. Hey, to each their own. If you like it, fine. I am happy about my decision and glad I did it.
Must be on a different account than I am - i've never run out of work with Amphion!
.
My account seems to have an adequate amount of work so far....SM
so that hasn't been a problem. I guess it might be just me.
You work extra or you lose the account!!!!
I for one know I do not want to lose the account, it sounds like you do not care, or maybe I just misread what you meant.
PLenty of work here. And I only have 1 account, no back up.
I currently work for GIMT oncology account
and love it. Platform is word based. Owner is a great lady, very flexible with schedule. The onc account that I have has excellent dictators. Very nice QA people, very consistent.
Anyone work on the oncology account at Transtech?
Saw ad and curious what the account and the company was like. Thanks.
