I know this University
Never worked for Diskwriter, but did work for UPMC (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, used to be Presbyterian Medical Center) for several years. This is a large teaching institution with high ESLs. They were the first in the country to do heart transplants with Dr. Starzel and his group. That was when heart transplant was experimental.
If you have heavy experience with ESLs, you'll do fine.
I'm not sure who the other university hospitals use but
I never see anything on their sites or on CareerBuilder about hiring in-house MT's so apparently they're all using an outside service of some type. Most hospitals I've worked in-house for use Medquist and another service at the same time (without Medquist's knowledge).
The only Phila. area hospital I've ever seen advertising for in-house MT's is Cooper in Camden, NJ (across the river from Philly).
Hahnemann University uses MQ, sm
Last I knew,
Temple University Health System uses MQ.
Thomas Jefferson Health System uses MQ.
Crozer Keystone Health System uses MQ.
Chester County Hospital uses MQ and a smaller service, don't know the name.
Most phyician practices in Delco use RX transcription out of Newtown Square, or ProType - Maureen I think is her name.
St. Christopher's, last I knew, was with MQ.
Did I forget any?
University of Texas -- Oh yea! n/m

I wonder if it would be possible to find a university that would need an experienced MT to just do
OR reports. Is this possible.
all the more reason to go to an accredited college or university
and earning potential rather than waste time and money on some fly-by-night crappola that has no credibility.
Anyone here work inhouse at Stanford University? - sm
Or know someone who does? If so, any comments, pro or con, about working there? I'm moving to that area soon, and was wondering if they're hiring.
Anyone here for for University of Kansas Medical Center? Please let me know. Thanks.
I work at home for a national now and I'm wondering if KU outsources or does in-house and about their benefits. Not a newbie, have 11 years experience in acute care. Rock chalk!
You had better believe it. Working 12 years in a huge university and now offered 8 cpl. nm

That is terrible. You know, those women have no idea how to handle all these big university accounts
that are moving up there. They are very very wrong about some of the things they do and it seems like they really dont know as much as they would like you to think they do. That is absolutely disgusting that they did that. I hope that MT reported them to anyone in New Jersey they could find. I would have taken that as far as I could have if I would have been her to the CEO. That is just horrendous. My goodness, why does MQ continue with them. I believe firmly if you make enough calls you will find someone that is willing to listen and take the info where it needs to go I believe that.
University of Iowa Med Center announced layoffs yesterday
I think the news report said they were getting rid of 130 people now, a total of 200 this year. Fortunately (their word, not mine), they're not going to have to make any cuts in people who have patient contact but in administrative areas (that'd be us). Truthfully, I'm not sure if they even still have in-house transcriptionists, but you know that if they do, they'll be the first to get their marching papers.
The University of Pennsylvania Health System Hospitals is huge in Philadelphia. Do they hire their
own MTs for those hospitals does anyone know. They must have a large amount of transcription to be done.
