Any information would be appreciated.  They sent me a card in the mail, extolling their virtues, but I have never heard of them.


TIA

Trying to find info on Encompass on this board, can't find any recent. sm
Anyone have any current info. Any employees out there? Give me the low-down if you can! Thanks a million.
Yes, recent experience
I applied in late August, but it took until just a week ago to receive passwords to work.

Very hands off management in my opinion, although very polite on phone. I think there is just not enough staff.

Also, very low error rate threshhold , but currently no QA and/or no way to flag a report. I was very very uncomfortable with the set up so I did not proceed.

YOU; however, might have better luck. :)
My recent experience with them was horrible.
There are a couple of MW cheerleaders here who bash me every time, but there are far better companies out there. They offshore. The sound quality and ESLs suck, for lack of a better word. I got ZERO QA feedback. They send out tons of emails and documents that don't even apply to everyone. They were completely rude and unhelpful to me.
Anyone have any recent experience w/Continuum?
They are out of Syracuse, NY.  The most recent postings in the archives are from 2006.  Would love to hear pros and cons of the company.  I am looking for full-time employee status/benefits.  Thanks!
I have had recent experience with FI and I would suggest
you give them a try.  Their techs are overseas but much many of their MTs and accounts are here.  The work I QA'd was done by American MTs - I've done both so I know.  Like another poster down below tho - I would never give notice somewhere else - I would try both for a while and then make the change to one if you truly like it - it will only take a week to 10 days for you to find out if you like it.
Recent hospital experience
My MIL is very ill and has been admitted to the same hospital ER and nephrology unit 6 times in the July/Aug. The staff comes in with that computer for EMR and they ask her the same questions over every time. I keep laughing at them and telling them, why don't you just pull up her past history from last time and not put her through this again? They seem unable to do this. What a joke.
Anyone with recent experience with Sten-Tel
out of Massachusetts? Found some old posts, but nothing very recent. TIA!
Anyone have any recent experience with SoftScript? Wonder if the changes have really helped. nm

Thanks in advance.
Anyone with RECENT experience w/ Zylomed? I understand they have changed ... sm
upper management a couple of times and am wondering how it is to work there now . Thanks!
Anyone currently work for All Type or have recent experience with the company? sm

I'm currently exploring my options, and was impressed with the $1000 signon bonus offered, but wondering about the usual things -- quality and quantity of work available, pay on time, etc.


 


Any input would be appreciated. 


Anyone has recent experience with Med-Scribe out of FL that could share, good, bad, or indifferent??
Thanks. I want to make an informed decision if I proceed with them. As everyone, you get tired of wasting your time on companies that are not worth it so I'm doing a little research on this one. Can anyone help??
Encompass of WI
Any info on this company greatly appreciated.  Cannot seemt to find anything.

Has anyone heard Encompass?  They seem too good to be true so what's the deal here?  Thanks in advance.

Regarding Encompass, it depends largely on your specific manager and account assignment.  Mine rarely concerned herself with my specific strengths and weaknesses, and often mandated overtime without, of course, asking.  Also, you have to watch the paycheck to make sure it is accurate; mine was often lacking, despite the fact that I was very specific and accurate on my timecard.  Another thing, my manager/account was regularly adding new dictators and worktypes for the weekend, at close of business on Friday, when no one was around to answer my questions.  They tell you that you can set your own schedule, but that's not always true, either.  Good luck.
That is Encompass. n/m

When I was there, as far as QA rating, the benchmark expectation was for 99.5%.  When I had ratings of only 99%, the manager said that it could be improved, but that 99% was acceptable.  I guess everyone's experience is different.  But, I felt like rented equipment when I worked at Encompass.
Encompass
I'm glad to hear this. I am scheduled to start with them in a week or so. What are your accounts like?
Anyone have anything to say about Encompass?

TIA

I am at Encompass (very part-time), very happy. Nice people, honest, pay is very much average (higher rates for p.m. and weekends). Don't have their insurance, but it's pretty good, and you can qualify pro rata at only 30 hours a week. Geedub

I worked there for about 4-5 months in 2007 when they took over my hospital's transcription. They weren't a good fit for me. You have to stick to a pretty strict schedule, have to work your hours, and expected make up missed hours if there is no work during your shift which on my accounts was a lot. Very little communication. Big push for VR. Average pay based on the time of day you work. Very detailed account specifics.
Encompass
They do our overflow work and are a very good company. They use ExText. Heard they pay well for quality work and are choosy about who they hire.
Encompass MT Inc.
Anyone with any info on this company? Did a search but nothing came up. 
Encompass MT Inc.
Thanks for that info!
Encompass

As of 2006-2007--No, they don't offshore.  They do subcontract with other MTSOs.  The owner of the company does not allow MTs to know each others email addresses, thereby keeping them from communicating with each other.  They seem to revere the QAs, tech department and account managers much more than the MTs.  Some of the account managers are quite bossy and QA can be quite condescending.  IMHO, at least one MT who I know was treated like rented equipment while working there.  They often run out of work on primary accounts, while they have mandatory overtime if the workload demands it.  If you meet their specifications, they do offer benefits for part-timers.  If you've been there less than 90 days, you may be required to work all holidays; if you've been there at least 90 days, you can request which holidays you would prefer to work.  However, if there's no work available on that holiday, you don't get paid for it.  If you have requested a certain day off and your manager approves it, keep all documentation, for you might get a call asking why you are not working; at least one manager there had a habit of forgetting such approvals.

I have been through the same issues but have not been able to find another job that is any better than where I am at now.


I applied with Encompass and was told that they do not hire New York state residents due to the high cost of doing business in our state.  I had spent the time filling out their application and completing their testing before finding this out, so I just wanted to save you the trouble if you are in NY. I wanted to forward that e-mail to the governor of New York becauseI was so angry that where I lived would prevent me from getting a good job!


Encompass
Does anyone have any information on Encompass (good or bad)? Thanks!
Encompass

Hi all,  Does anyone have any experience and/or knowledge of working with Encompass out of Wisconsin or Sten-Tel out East. . . good, bad or inbetween?  I'm very comfortable with the Escription platform which both use along with straight dictation and am interviewing with both.


Thanks.


Encompass
Can anyone please supply current information about Encompass in Wisconson? 
Encompass
I worked there over a year ago, so this is not really recent info. I quit because I did not like the strict schedule/time clock that they require. If that's not a problem for you, they are a good company. The trainers and support staff are really nice. My accounts would be out of work and I had to jump around from account to account. But that seems to be everywhere. I think they push VR pretty hard too.

All in all, it seems that people rarely post on here about them so maybe that means their transcriptionists are happy and not venting on this board.

Encompass
Anybody with current information about Encompass?   Thanks a lot.

Encompass Medical Transcription
I am saddened to hear of the loss of your jobs.  I will keep this short and sweet, but I want to let each of you know that I began working for Encompass last year and have known the owner for several years.  I have been to several conferences with her in recent months and we have heard over and over again about how sending work off shore is so much more profitable.  There isn't enough room on this forum to explain our company's passion about remaining US based.  I cannot promise each of you jobs but I can only hope that you would take a look at our website (www.encompassmt.com) and see if we might be able to help you.  We are proud to say we are an employer of choice and our MTs would agree.   
Anyone ever hear of Encompass? would appreciate any info.

Just wondering if anyone has ever heard of them.


 


Current Encompass info please
Does anyone currently work for Encompass or know anything about this company? Any information good or bad appreciated. Thanks so much.
Would someone who works for Encompass please email me? sm
I am considering an offer from them and need to see about clarifying something about their insurance.  Thank you!
Encompass Medical Transcription
Any info on this company?  TIA.
Couple specific Encompass questions sm

Do they have a consistent workload?


Heavy ESL?


Their benefits package seems amazing, their requirements seem very well detailed and they seem very structured in general.  I like the black-and-whiteness of it. They seem to have their biz together.  Anyone that can verify?


Any loopholes on their behalf from anyone's experience, such as docking for errors, exreme nit-picking (although my accuracy is excellent thus far).  I'm hoping they're not a company that portrays themselves as reputable, family-oriented, professional, etc. and then harass and turn into monsters once you're on board.  Thanks!
