Any Axolotl employees willing to share info., platform, ESL %, etc. All info greatly appreciated. sm

Along with the platform, ESL %, pay range, lpd required, split shift or 12-24 hour window available, I would be interested in knowing your personal experience with this company, what type of relationship you have with supervisors and other coworkers, etc.  Otherwise, the all the 411.

anyone care to share comments re: Preferred Transcriptions in PA? sm
I'm not able to find enough feedback + or -, and I am contemplating sending a resume. Veteran MT here, and refuse to waste my time or theirs applying with a company who does not offer what I'm looking for. I don't need health insurance, but want full-time steady work with a fair line rate and no weekends. Maybe I'm asking for too much, but over the years I have put my share of weekends in, missing holidays with family, missing my childrens' events/activities etc. Thanks for any and all information.

Could someone share what platform for Accu-Script?
n/m   ');>
Would anyone please share info
According to their website it appears as if they hire newbies that graduated from one of the top schools, which I did.  I would appreciate any info about them.  Thanks.
Would you please share info on...
a few things. Are the MTs at Van Belkum employees or IC? Do they pay via mail or direct deposit? What experience level do you need to test/apply?

I am happy where I am, but it is IC status, and I am considering going to employee status somewhere in the near future. I am glad to hear it is a good company and has happy MTs!
Don't care for the platform
Little things about it I don't like. No way to toggle caps. If you type something and realize afterwards it was supposed to be all caps, you have to delete and retype. Cannot copy doctors names from roster into body of report. Spell check is terrible, and you have to keep adding words to it. My account is not internet-based so sound quality is less than desirable

I use Instant Text so don't know anything about expander.
But the MT has the right to share any info about herself she wants and with whomever she wants.
:+
Can anyone share with me any info on ProType

in Phili? Thanks

Can anyone share any info on Webmedx?
Good, bad? I see that they have several openings currently, but I just want to make sure that they are a good company before I pursue anything with them. Do they pay on time? Do they treat their employees well? Can they be flexible if you ever need some time off? Also, do they frequently run out of work? Any info will be greatly appreciated!
What platform do they use for acute care?
And basic range of pay scale? Thanks for the info.
Yes, if I ever find a company who will do it I will certainly share the info. :)
 
The purpose of this board is to share info about MTSOs...

I simply don't understand why MTs post all these negative things about a company but will not divulge the name of the company or even give us a hint!  What are you afraid of?!?!!?  They are already screwing MTs over and probably you too if you're angry enough to post!  You can post anonymously, that's the beauty of this particular site.  No one need know who you are.


I, personally, keep a list of MTSOs and things I've heard about them.  God knows I've been through enough bad MTSOs, I want to save other MTs the heartache of going through the same crap I've gone through!


Besides the best way to get these MTSOs to change is to post their name on a PUBLIC forum.  Word of mouth can be a powerful thing!


Here is a list of companies I have worked for and the problems I have had, starting with the most recent:


JLG --> paid payroll practices, LATE pay checks, and discontinuation of direct deposit.


Focus Infomatics -->  they offshore the majority of their work, they lie about offshoring the majority of their work, they lie to their employees about pay, hours, and job status and breach contracts left and right.


TransHealth -->  I have nothing bad to say about them.  Pay always on time, people nice (they have since been bought by Webmedx).


Precyse Solutions -->  Nothing horrible to report.  If I recall, they didn't pay for templates, but they told you that up front.


Medquist --> horrible people in supervisory positions, very cliquish company, bad dictators on all my accounts!


Webmedx -->  The account I was on was completely and utterly horrible!  Other than that, nice people, very organized.


Accutype --> complete embecil in charge (when I worked for them) who knew nothing about transcription or the needs of MT, again very cliquey with friends giving friends the best work.


Diskriter --> ran out of work frequently


I also worked for several small MTSOs that were either bought or went out of business, and I will say it usually was the smallest MTSO that I enjoyed working for the most.  I did work as an IC for a company out of Arizona doing radiology a few years ago for a while (I can't remember the name, but I don't think they are around anymore).  Also I worked as an IC for Administrative Advantage out of Pennsylvania were pretty decent, easy accounts and easy to make money, used DropChute to deliver dictation and reports back and forth and you just typed in one big docment per dictator in Word.  Simple, straight forward, and always on time.  If you ran out of work, they would try to put you somewhere else, but never made any promises.  I like honesty and they were honest.


See how easy that was.  You try!


This forum is a place for MTs to share info, NOT hostility..sm
If you don't agree with a poster, just don't respond. It's really not that hard! Live and let live for God's sake! I can't speak for everyone, but do feel the majority, like myself, do come hear to find jobs, research companies, share ideas, etc. What we DON'T come here for is to be dragged down by all the negativity spewed out from miserable MTs. Save it!! No one cares to weed through the rude replies!!
Of course company doesnt feel compelled to share this info. Is there anyone there who would be
;P
Re MedScribe in Fla. Can anyone share insurance info for emp/spouse coverage? SM

I am especially interested in rate, copays, deductible, and prescription coverage, if possible.  Thanks very much!

any info on the Cerner platform?

Any new info about Northeast? Pay? Platform? QA?
Archives are showing no new info since about 2006, was wondering how things were now.   How is the platform?  From archived info I see pay was 7-8 cpl for 70 character line, which I'm not thrilled about but I love Psych so tough decision for me personally.  Any info on QA would be great if anyone knows.  TIA!!
Looking for info on the TRX platform, what expanders I can use, etc. sm

Info on Columbus MQ and DEP platform...anything you can give me.

so no platform, no patient info screen, etc....
I really like working for companies that have a platform. It seems to be faster for me. I type for a company with no platform and I have to download FTP files. It seems to slow me down.

Company and Medrite platform info.

Any current info on SmartMed? I saw something about the platform not being sm
user friendly, but otherwise not too much.  Their pay scale seems to be good, but she did say it is for a teaching hospital, so that probably means 95% ESLs.  Anyway, any insight is appreciated.  Thanks!
