MQ & MDI NEGATIVES

I'm just curious why both MDI-FL and MQ get so many negative posts on this board versus the rest of the companies out there?  Is it because these two companies are so large so there are more employees to complain, or is it because they are really just very bad companies to work for? 


I'm considering both companies, but see all of the posts on this board and am a little nervous about making a change.


MQ negatives
And ya know what? For all the so-called "perks" of working for MQ, what did MTs get MT week? Oh, yeah, a chapstick attached to a key ring. Who knows, next year Frank will pass out dog turds wrapped in pretty red ribbons, and there will still be MTs who say MQ was thoughtful, and we're all ungrateful. Oh, well.
wow, that's a lot of negatives...
in your paragraph itself for me. You could try, but I think I would try for something else in the meantime. That's a lot to be concerned about.


Mediscript

Any info on Mediscript, unsure where they are located, just took a test from them.  Checked archives and found very little, any info would be appreciated. 


mediscript
do not know which Mediscript, just took their test, and that is what it said at the top of the test.  Anything about the company, is it a honest reputable company that treats his MTs good?  I guess if you do not know which Mediscript, you will not be able to answer my question.  Can you tell me this, it is a national?
Mediscript
I checked the archives and did not find any information that was helpful, what do you know or tell me how to find out.
Mediscript
They offered me 9 cents per gross line. They do not offer direct deposit, you invoice on the 15 and 30, unsure when you get paid, I think 20 days after you invoice. The platform is WP 7 or higher. I took their test, passed it, was hired, but was unable to get any help with start up. They sent me a packet of instructions and said to go for it. I am not computer savy, so this did not work for me, it might for you though. Gross line pay is the best in the business, I think it would be worth giving it a try. Just my opinion.
Mediscript

does anyone have any info on this company?  The usual, paying on time, staff, enough work, etc.  Thanks


Mediscript
they are located in IL.

Can anyone give me info on Mediscript out of Naples, FLA?


despite the heavy negatives
i vote MQ; tried a couple smaller companies -- but when you roll into the mix all the various factors, its my choice place to be. and furthermore, its my family's sole income and as a FT employee -- i'm not even worried about the lawsuits and all. The company is constantly improving. There are no signs of sell-out or collapse, only of strength.

Mediscript employee
I work for Mediscript and could not be happier. They leave you alone as long as you do what you commit to them for. The only downfall is a C-phone, but for the pay I can over look that!!!!

About 99% negatives are a definite indicator
That place is a nightmare.

reading below only 1 with negatives for offshoring...
either that is your company or you've been away a while.
I see so many negatives about KS acute care...sm
what about the RAD accounts?  I read before that they had good RAD accounts, but do they actually train you or do you just jump right in and make your production?  I am waiting for my interview from the recruiter who came back from a trip a couple of days ago.  Any info appreciated!
Although I've seen many negatives on this board, I'm very
happy at JLG. Not having DD is the only negative I can think of.
Which mediscript?? What are your specific questions? nm

All I can find in archives about Mediscript is sm

"Bad news!" and nothing else.  That doesn't tell me or anyone else anything useful.  I don't care if someone says "bad news!" but could they please back it up with some real info?  Preferably first-hand experiences would be nice, thank you.


Does anyone out there have any info about Mediscript?  I know they pay by the gross line, but how much?  Do they offer direct deposit?  When are the pay days?  How's the platform?  Any info appreciated.  I'd like to gather some information first before I take any tests or talk to them so I can determine if it's worth going through all that for a job that might not be a fit for me.

Are there any former Mediscript (Austell, GA) employees that know what happened with them?sm

I worked with them for about 10 years.  I drove by the other day, and they were obviously out of business.  Just curious as to the circumstances.  If anyone could e-mail me, I would really appreciate it. 


Thanks


The many negatives? You're the only one I've seen bash it. Not every place is for everyone.

Negatives, no benefits, have to provide your own long distance, (sm)

internet platform for file transfer but audio is through phone line so you have to either rent or provide your own C-phone.  Pros 24 hours to get lines done each day but do have to work 2 weekend days a month and provide a schedule 2 months in advance.  Have heard several accounts are heavily loaded with ESLs.  You work as statuatory, therefore, file your own taxes.


If you have experience & can get past the negatives, SmartMed uses dial-up & has an ad at top

Is anyone happy at OSI in Douglasville, GA? Lots of negatives in archives - SM
but I also remember reading some positive comments. I am a CMT with 30 years of experience, and I need employee status with good, affordable health insurance.  I so wish I could fine some place where I can stay until I retire, or at least a long, long time!
Read in the archives that Mediscript (FL) is "bad news" Why?
.//
Transcend's positive posts stay here cause negatives are deleted! That's the trend!
You cannot rely on honest referrals on this board, especially the archives.  They are edited and deleted forever.  Just as the negative posts on the Transcend forum "magically" disappear once discovered...Don't be so naive, unless you're the one "editing"!
There was a lot of trouble with this company earlier this year - see archives -- Mediscript

How did you find out about them?


 


I didn't ask about Medscribe, I asked about Mediscript in FLA. No direct deposit w/this co.

Rad report pay - sm
Wish I knew where you got $1.35 as a norm. The most I've ever been offered was $1.25 and that was for Meditech radiology, the pits. Care to share where you got this norm? TIA
KS rad report pay - sm
Recent interview I had stated $1.10 report, and $2.25 report for specials (interventional exams), but the rest of the pay scale didn't turn me on. They don't pay for each exam under the specials, ( no linking for angio/TPA/cath insertion, etc), figuring the $2.25 would cover it, but no way does that make up for the length of some of those exams. Wasn't my cup of tea.
Pay per report. sm
I worked there for a while.  Got $1.25 per report but the reports were very long and the platform horrible.  Wasn't worth it.
per report

I agree with the person who said if its plain films that are typed then go with per report price. 


 


pay per report
MedQuist pays per report for Radiology and uses Meditech.
Thanks - doing rad and by report
so not sure how that will work. Thanks!
WOW $3.50 report?

I want to work where YOU work!  That's the most I've heard.


Also, per report - sm
Per report pay is only as good as the platform, and only IF you get paid for links, like CT ABD/PELVIS being dictated as one report, but you get paid for two reports, etc. Platform and company policy has a lot to do with profitability being paid by report. Lots of things to consider.....
Their MTs need to report them to the IRS - nm
