MDI-FL hiring for eScription accounts
Hello all,
We just acquired three Escription accounts and our MTs LOVE THEM. Please e-mail me at Liz@medicaldictation.com or call me at 1-800-205-7047.
It is a fun program to work on.
Hope you are keeping safe down in Texas. God bless. We are all thinking of you guys in the way of that horrible storm.
Thanks,
Liz McGrogan
General Manager
Medical Dictation, Inc.
Just be aware that not all Escription accounts pay the same. I worked for one company on Escription
struggling to maybe make $50 in 8-10 hours. I didnt know the difference as that was my first job on that platform and I just thought it was not a money maker. Then, I switched companies. I average $20-30 an hour and once I made $50 in an hour. I tried yet another company and I was lucky to make $9 an hour. The bottom line is that not all companies are alike, even though they use the Escription platform. What I have found is that goes according to how they set it up i.e. paying for footers, headers, spaces etc. Just dont be shocked if you dont make what you think you will. The companies know how to set it to where it benefits them and not you. As is the norm, not all companies are created equal out there regardless if they all use the same platform. That is what I am getting out.. Good luck.
Find out which accounts they are hiring for. They have some ESL accounts that are extremely
difficult to do. I dont know how many accounts they have altogether but as I say, a few are very difficult and I actually dont have a problem with ESLs but these accounts are almost totally ESL. I dont do them anymore.
escription accounts
Escription work is on Word. Transform has a SUPER word-based platform and as of yet does not do VR editing.
I work on escription accounts.
pay 4/9 for 60-90 days, can't remember which, then 4/10. Very nice to work for. I've been there since Octoberish.
It's about average on eScription accounts.
I get 4/8.4 as an employee.
Has TT always had eScription accounts? Is this new? Just curious..nm

I can only speak of the Escription accounts.
It's been low for a long time so if that is the account your on and you can be flexible, go for it. AND I do mean flexible.
I edit for Transcend on accounts using eScription. sm
I really like it, make more money than transcribing, and am in and out of more reports. And it's a lot easier on my wrists. I've always found the people nice to work with, in spite of the horror stories being related about the hiring process.
I have no experience with any editing programs other than eScription being used at Transcend/MDI, but you could request assignment to accounts using eScription. One thing, since new accounts (ones often needing new employees) typically are transitioning to VR, you could start out heavy on transcription of reports as the computer learns to take over that job, with a few weeks of lots of corrections to eScripted reports, and then finally doing almost all editing on a trained account. I think it's going to be that way on any account new to VR with any company. Transcend did adjust the pay rate as the account I was working on progressed so I never lost money and eventually ended up making more. Good luck wherever you end up.
Good luck. Are you on the Escription accounts?
I like it there. I've had my moments there, but I haven't found anything better out there so I'm staying for the long haul.
Does anyone know what Transtech pays for its Escription accounts?
I'd be willing to work weekends if the price was right. I've just seen too many Escription accounts pay too low, which to me, is 3 cpl and lower..One company actually offered 1.5 cpl. No thanks.
TransTech has 2 current Escription accounts
Yeah if I remember right, they are one of the low-paying Escription accounts out there, maybe 1.5-2
cpl or something ridiculous. Not actually livable US rates...
With Nuance buying Focus, what will happen to the eScription accounts? sm
I really don't think eScription is going to like the fact that Dictaphone/Nuance is going to be working on their platform and learning their secrets to their software.........do you?
This is so interesting to me as I am an eScription editor. Maybe it is time I start my own business again and contact all of the eScription hospital accounts or contact eScription and get their input on this.
In reading Nuance's press release, Bringham Women's Hospital is an eScription account not a dictaphone account. Very interesting......Don't you think? Would love to hear opinions on this.
They send a majority of the Escription accounts to India. There are a few of the hospitals that said
they could not send their work there but I suspect they do anything. In any event, yes, a lot of the easier work goes to India and they are proud of this affliation, not bad it doesn't pay my bills. Then, they wonder why we are so angry about India taking our jobs.
Companies w/Escription accounts that offer affordable family insurance??
I realize that affordable is subjective so whatever information anyone can give woudl be appreciated. The majority of Escription accounts offer IC only. Thanks
Think they may be hiring for new accounts
someone I know recently hired by them - you should probably contact recruiter yourself and get things moving.
I think they are hiring for a few accounts but not VR. nm

I see MDI MD is hiring again on MT jobs. Are they getting a lot of new accounts or is there
a turnover in people lately.
They are hiring for new accounts that are in place.
.
They way overhire. They do a big hiring for new accounts
and then when the dust settles there isn't enough work and a bunch leave. There are accounts with tons of work, but they are usually older accounts and for some reason they won't allow them to be used as backup accounts. Pay is better than most companies, but if you can't get your lines in it doesn't help. Pay always on time and if payday falls on a holiday pay is early.
They weren't a good fit for me, which turned out to be a good thing because I'm in a much better place now than I was with them, but I've worked for worse companies. If you are looking to work for one company I'd advise again that with Webmedx. I was only getting 12-15 hours in a week. I was always available my scheduled shift and was willing to work my days off, there just wasn't enough work.
Precyse Hiring for new accounts
I am an MT for Precyse and love the company. There is lots of work and the platform is very user friendly. A great place to work!
They are hiring because new accounts are coming on. sm
This will straighten out the work shortage everyone is feeling right now.
Transtech will be hiring for new accounts soon
//
Give them a call; they are hiring a lot lately for new accounts
and are probably a little behind.
For Radiology, try Keystrokes. I know they are hiring on one of my accounts. sm
The hospital just hired KS to do their whole department. I think they will be doing their Med/Surg stuff too.
I see JLG is still hiring. Is anyone newly working for them and how are the accounts they offer.
:
They've been hiring so much because they have two new GIGANTIC accounts that need to be staffed.
Between the two accounts they need something like 50 people. I wouldn't worry about it. A company CAN hire lots of people and still staff appropriately, you know.
I do Rad for TT. Pay is good, tons of work, decent accounts. I know they are hiring a few more
Rad MTs now. I would highly recommend.
They are hiring for new accounts that are coming on in March. I called and asked. As far as
no work, it will catch back up. There are ebbs and flows with every company and I, for one, am not worried about it.
I see Precyse is hiring for new accounts. Would appreciate recent info on this company. (sm)
most of what I have found is pretty old. Are the current employes squelched when it comes to giving out information regarding the company or are they just so busy they don't have time to mess around on the boards? E-mail if you are concerned about being flamed or don't want to post for whatever reason. TIA.
Maybe MQ is over hiring now in preparation for something. Must be some reason they keep hiring when
some people have not work.
Are they losing accounts. Do most of their accounts stay for long period of time. I have
heard pros and cons about the quality of their work. I guess it is much cheaper than other companies can offer.
Because the girls that monitor the accounts in the office were told the accounts either go on DQS or
move on. All accounts to be with MQ must be on DQS and no more different platforms. ONE ONLY DQS. They can send more work overseas then.
MDI-FL but not all accounts. Only the internet-based ones. C-phone accounts are fine.
So, yes, let me clarify before everyone gets in an uproar.. There is work IF you want to use a C-phone. IF you signed up for an account that is internet-based, you will be disappointed. Not enough work to go around. Just my personal preference.. I have no desire to do a dial-up C-phone account using my long distance.
Some do and have good accounts and fully loaded ESL accounts
Take a look at what is happening in India. For the first time, workers there have money to get themselves into debt by buying high priced items (cars for example). They now protest lower castes being allowed into universities at almost double the previous allowance. Wait until they are highly in debt, begin to feel entitled to a wage equal to that paid inthe US and then, try to form unions, get tossed out into the street and sit back with some Ben and Jerry ice cream and watch the economy collapse and all that dictation come back across the ocean. Timing is everything.
Well it sounds like no work happens a lot at DSG. How are the accounts as far as decent accounts
and their QA.
Different accounts have different platforms. Most accounts require sm
high speed but I am not sure if satellite is OK.
I don't think that they're hiring right now. I spoke with my lead on Thursday, who said they are focusing on making sure everyone has enough work and moving PTers to FT, eventually moving towards FT only with only weekends as PT. Not 100% sure when that is though.
Hmm..well it goes to show how different it can be between accounts. My "high" ESL accounts s
at WMX are pretty easy in my opinion as well. I wish I had a better answer for you. Hang in there if you can. You have to do what is right for you.

I've heard that DaVenture Health Partners was recently made an approved vendor, but as of today they are not posted on the eScription website yet.
