I worked for them very briefly as a secondary.  They are nice people to work for and easy to get along with.  They seemed fair.  They just needed me to provide a schedule of sorts to them as to when I could help out, and I just couldn't give that to them at that point in time.

One of the platforms I used was Iscriptor which was cumbersome but doable.  I think they also use an IM to communicate and e-mail as well.  They paid on time direct deposit.

Nice people!  They also try to set you up with your specialty, which is a very nice touch. 

With Iscriptor, you basically take so many jobs at a time, send them back, and then take more.  It was pool work for me, but things may have changed.

I would highly recommend Advanced. 

Can anyone give me any information on Advanced Transcripion in Portland, OR? 

I have worked for this company for awhile.  It is true that the pay runs about 25 days behind, but once you get over that hump for the first pay period they pay consistently.  You can have your check direct deposited.  Pay is always on time.

I love working for Advanced!

I have subcontracted for Advanced Transcription out of Portland, Oregon for almost 3 yrs.  It's a great company.  We always have plenty of work.  They have direct deposit and pay on time or early.  The platform is easy to learn.  If you are looking for work, check them out.  You will not be disappointed. 

I think it's in Arizona, but anyway.  It's not a bad company to work for.  The only thing is you have to be on pager and give them a schedule yet you are an IC.  The pay is not too bad.  The work runs out and they put you on another account.  The platform is horrible and takes a lot of time to do demographics and such.  There is also patient lists that are pages and pages long. 

I can't really say anything negative other than they hire ICs, but you have to tell them when you'll be working.  They may be more flexible now, who knows.

Has anyone heard of Advanced Medical Trnscription out of NJ?  I would love to hear from present or past employees.

First line of the ad: 

RADIOLOGY Transcriptionist NEEDED FOR 5 TO 9 OR 10 EVERY WEEKDAYS EVENING

It's one thing to play grammar/punctuation/spelling police for casual posters, but this is posted by the COMPANY, and so it's fair game.  I would not apply just based on the ad content alone. 

You have to tell them which days you'll be working and have to e-mail them if you cannot stick to your schedule and if you are a no show (which is not in my opinon IC work), then they'll terminate you. 

Advanced uses Iscriptor and it's clunky.  They run out of work and switch you to another account with a large learning curve.  You are also monitored on messenger.

I was on their website filling out the employment application and I noted they required MT to take a hearing test by a physician.  I have been an MT for 30 years and taken tests before, but I have never had to have a hearing test.  Does or have any MT currently with this company had to have that hearing test?  I was just curious before I actually sent in an application?  The one Advanced Company i was looking at was out of Kentucky.  I am not sure of how many other companies with this name also there were.    Thanks
