Any TransTech oncology transcriptionists

I started working at TT almost 2 months ago and was told they were inundated with work, but after working for about 2-3 weeks, the work has steadily dwindled.  I am scheduled to work the weekend but there is never enough work to get my hours on Sunday.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Also it seems to me that I don't get the line count there like I have with my other jobs.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem?  Would like to hear what you think of the account and the company.  Thanks for any info.

Plenty of work.  Don't know about the other questions.

Anyone out there work on the TT oncology account?  I have been working on this new account and would like to hear from other transcriptionists regarding  what they think of this account, software, able to get line counts, etc.

TIA

Looking for input from transcriptionists who work for TT on the big oncology ASR account.  Would you please share how this account is insofar as getting your required line count.  I have been working in hem/onc for over 7 years and having trouble finding regular transcription work in this field so I am thinking of going to ASR.  Are you able to make enough money to live doing this account?  Is it difficult to learn the Escription platform?

One more thing...does TT hire any PT (30 hours per week) workers or not?  Flex schedule at all?

Thanks for your input.

I was wondering if the oncology account out of Texas was staying in work of if it was in a slump.  I used to work on it and was looking at going back, if they are needing help, but was not sure if it was keeping work or not.  I sure do miss it.  You can email me privately.  Thanks. 

I have read so many wonderful things about this company, but no one seems to talk about cpl.  I know what they offered me is about average for nationals, but I also was told they do not give raises.  Is this really true.  Does that mean if you are an excellent transcriptionist, and more reliable than normal, they would never give you a raise?  That doesn't sound good to me.  Would anyone care to say if they have gotten a raise while working there.

Your help is much appreciated.

Anyone out there familiar with the oncology accounts for  GIMT or TransTech  are advertising for?  Would like to know if there is enough work, platform they use, general pay range.  How flexible are they on scheduling?

Thanks.

To the Administrator:

Since MQrs are practically occupying the whole main board,  and it seems this company has the most transcriptionists in the MT business, may I suggest that an MQrs Board be set up for MQ so as not to waste the time of MTs who would like to be informed of other matters on said board.

We, who are not MQrs would like to know more of other MTs' problems with other companies and not only with MQ.

Thanks,

so ignorant. They don't read anything other than MT stars. They constantly bitch and moan about MT companies that offshore but they're typing on a computer that was made by someone in a foreign country...they have a ragedy imported vehicle sitting in the driveway......they have a Japanese vacuum cleaner, etc...  Yet you come to this board and state how dirty and poor these people are.

Intelligence says a whole lot about a person no matter what part of the globe they live in. All of the offshore MT's who work for the company I QA for are college educated (4 year degrees). They may be poor but they are doing everyting they can to make a better life for themselves. They are not lazy. They don't call in sick every other Friday. They are dependable. They are loyal to their employer.  They would NEVER come to MTstars or any other forum and berate and belittle their employer like many of you do. Most of you people don't know what the word loyalty means.

Offshoring is nothing new. It has been done for years and will continue to be done. Nearly everytime you purchase an electronic item you are supporting offshoring.  You're just too stupid to realize it. You are no different than the MTSO's who offshore. The MTSO's who offshore are looking for the same thing you are when you buy an import-QUALITY. 

I use a steno machine to transcribe with and was wondering if any of you do too.

I'm getting ready to start with Medquist and wondering if there are any tips for me.

thanks

a limited number of doctors to learn in the areas they were hired for?  NOOOO....gotta know 15 doctors.  Then you folks want us to fill in on an emergency in a field never tried before by the transcriptionist...the Transcriptionist tells you she's never done that but you say....ahhh...you won't have any trouble...please???  She says yes and tortures along trying to figure it out for pennies on the dollar.  Two days later she is still struggling along, has told you several times, but you say you're doing great...Two days later you send her an e-mail saying that if her work doesn't improve you'll have to dock her pay.   Stick it man.

Lets see....doctors specialize but we who make peanuts have to be able to transcribe ALL specialties or are punished.  Wake up.

Can anyone give me any information about WedMedX.  Is this a good company?

I hear they pretty much watch your every move, when you are punching in, when your away, when you punch out, etc.  Is this true?  Do they have a lot of ESL?  Any info would be helpful.  Thanks.

Thought this sounded interesting to somebody.  A place called KForce evidently has job openings for transcriptionists.  Hope the link works:

Yes, I know they were looking but I am leery of pursuing a job with a company I know nothing about.  I have posted queries on both MT Stars and MTDaily about this company and have received no replies.  I might just go ahead and take their test then see what comes of it though.  Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention!  Much appreciated.

First off, yes I mean Medquest and not Medquist. 

To any Transcriptionist still working for Medquest Associates based out of GA,

If you are not in any of their transcription pools that they have set-up, then sorry to say you will be losing your jobs.  As they put it, they want typist that work for 9 or 10 cents a line and are going for a more cost effective approach....... whatever.

Need part-time flexible hours and a decent line rate - prefer to work over the net.  I haven't been between jobs in a couple years now and here I am coming up short and before Christmas no less.  I have 10 years experience.  Any suggestions?  It doesn't sound like there is a single decent company listed on these boards that anybody truly likes to work for.
