Any recent info on ZyloMed? Thanks!
Can anybody offer any RECENT info on Zylomed?
Particularly, do they offer health insurance? Anybody know what the pay scale is like for radiology?
Just curious...Anyone have any experience with Zylomed?
They are hiring for Ortho but I wondered how they were as far as benefits, pay, and accounts go, and if they have a lot of ESL. Thanks. Any information would be great.
Used to work there. Terrible experience. They may have changed their ways, tho

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

MedScribe,Jacksonville - any recent experience
Anyone here work for MedScribe in Jacksonville? Looking for current info, the good, the bad, and the ugly, lol!
Thanks in advance.
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??
I understand, I just wanted someone to tell me their experience.
I am not going to assume that their experience is going to be what happens to me, I just would like to know any and every experience with losing a primary so that I can have some idea of what could happen. My MTSO seems busy to me, but like I said, I haven't been there long enough to know what not busy or busy really is. I am so new to working from home and for a big company, I don't know what is in store.
The owners haven't changed, MT supe hasn't changed
I've been in their office. I know the people. It is a sweat shop and you will never be paid a decent amount or get respect. You won't know which is a good or a bad day for the person you report to until you literally get yelled at.
They have to offer bonuses because their reputation is that bad and nothing has changed. You may get work that has been recorded 3 times from some of the worst accounts you could ever imagine. They take accounts no one else will touch. That hasn't changed.
They changed buildings so maybe the phone number also changed...
They are still going strong...
Zylomed North Florida, Inc....is this the same as Zylomed?
And does anyone have any current info on them...do they hire IC? Thanks!
They seem to have changed since I did..
I worked for them 6 years ago. I was an employee, I see now on their website they only hire ICs. I was very happy with them, basically could work when I wanted as long as the reports were back when due. However, they somehow decided that their pay scale was unfair to new hires, so those of us who had been there, got knocked down to the new hire scale and everyone basically had to start from scratch to level the playing field. I quit shortly after, was not going to take a pay cut. I believe at this same time they also started sending some stuff offshore, not something I was ready to deal with. If they still have the same owners (I think the guys name was Ed), I found him to be very rude and only interested in himself and his $$. I believe about 6 of us all quit at the same time because they downright rude. I am now with a big national and making about double what I did with Accutype because of better systems and support.
So nothing has changed...
Thanks for the headsup guys. I passed the test with them and received an email, but I guess nothing has changed from past posts.
Thanks again
I see nothing has changed in the last
year since I left MDI. This is exactly how they operate on every level. A lot of people don't mind but I stayed for way to long and have a much better position now without all the drama from MDI! Good luck to you.
Pay Changed
I also agree that you should not take the job, but if they did offer to come up to the original offer I would still not take it. In my mind, this is a either a very unorganized company or a manipulative company and either way it is unlikely things would change once actually working for them.
Must have changed
Their training period used to be for 4 weeks--it must have changed within the last year.
Unless it has changed
you get paid for training what you will be paid for when out of training.
i changed this yr from emp to IC (SE)
left the Q for another job...and i'd have to suggest job #2. I have been an employee for several decades, and wish i would have found the joy and freedom of being an IC-type years ago. I have my medical insurance through BC/BS of my state, and do that so i am free to change jobs if i want to. I get a little higher deductible and the premium is not so bad. As far as a computer, i decided to have a backup for my desktop and just yesterday purchased a laptop online from Circuit City (sale goes off today) for a toshiba A215-S4697, $600 (includes printer/wireless router/security software). That's less than half of what i invested in my desktop. Maybe that would be of interest to you? Feel free to e/m me if i can be of any further help. Either way, good luck!!
looks like nothing has changed much...
the owner gave me some sob story about how she wouldn't make any money if she paid us more than 1.5 cents/line to edit. PLEASE!!
Unless they have changed
since last year when I worked for them, and I doubt they have,stay away from them. They STILL call me and want me to call them and act as though I never worked for them before; I worked there 4 months. Cannot understand any of them when you need to talk to someone, never had any work even after they promised there would be plenty of work. I finally threw in the towel and left. Couldn't feed the family that way. I definitely do not wish this company upon anyone.
Could have changed but..
I elected NOT to take a position with them because the pay was the worst ever. They had VR accounts that they paid 1.5-2 cpl on I believe. There is NO way I'd do ANY work for that.
Nothing has changed.
They have told some that they have 'optimized' their work pool to eliminate the cesspool, but we are STILL getting cesspool. Nothing but empty promises.
May be old but NOTHING has changed
.
She must have changed!!!!!!sm
This woman must have changed! She was the most moody, strange, and rude person years ago when we worked at the same company. But I think back then, she had a substance abuse problem. not sure 
I think she changed her name.
I read old posts, but don't remember specifics. I think it was something about work drying up.
JLG has not changed
Their QA staff is rude and not helpful.
Unless the law has changed
it is the physician's responsibility to ensure that the record is correct when his name is signed to it. I used to have a dictator who always ended his dictation with I have signed but have not read this document or something like that. Every time I typed it I thought fool!
They changed their name, was it Healthscribe before? If so
they don't pay very well.
MDI-MD MTs: Has something changed with Bayscribe?
very consistently without pushing myself too hard, 300 lph if I did push myself. But 250 without much effort. The last several weeks I seem to only get 200 to 220 lines per hour just transcribing leisurely, and even when I push myself I have not been able to get up to 300 lph; more like 250 when I push myself. I don't get it. I have worked there for a few years. I have been with Bayscribe since it started. I'm just wondering if headers aren't being counted anymore or something. And I do copy the document and paste it into Word and do a line count on it, and the line count comes out the same - but there is definitely something different. I have always loved MDI but I just can't survive on 200 lph and I'm going to have to go back to my own accounts if it keeps up like this.
I was just wondering if anyone else had noticed a difference?
Changed my mind
x
I believe they have changed the policy about (sm)
bonus lines for reaching next level.
Pay Rates Have Not Changed -
It must have been the level of the account.
How long ago did you use it? All of that has changed
now
No, I asked to be changed.
x
I changed my mind too sm
I thought it was just me.
She offered me a position, but I chose not to accept the position because she was very rude.
Has Transcend changed its name to
nm
Another example of how this industry has changed -
that's why many are leaving this profession. After 10 years, that is how you're treated. It's a shame - and very degrading.
I hear you. A lot has changed.
Would love to go back to an in-house job, however, in-house jobs are scarce. I just interviewed 2 days ago for a local hospital. She graded my test right in front of me and said I did excellent on the test and took me around to meet everyone in the office. Howeveer, she did tell me another person is being considered who lives 300 miles away but is willing to relocate. She obviously couldn't find a hospital job where she lives. Slim pickings. Also, hospitals are now on production requiring as much as nationals in most cases. It's something else.
Unless things have changed, no, you have to sn
use the Bayscribe spellcheck.
Pay isn't good and they have changed
how they pay multiple times. Sound quality is bad. They offshore. Owner seems nice. I don't remember anything else. I was offered an MTposition, which I declined. About a month later she called me and said they were offshoring and the dictation was surprisingly good and she was looking for more QA people. I did some test files before I knew they offshored work (had only been doing it about a month), but as soon as I started reviewing the work I knew it was offshore work because surprising good it wasn't.
You can check the archives for more info. They used to go by another name, but I can't remember what it was.
I see things have NOT changed there!
SOS - same old stuff, different company.
The insurance changed and it is not
