• Ascend is advertising pay at 11 cpl. Didnt they have problems paying or is that resolved. - Any new news??
  • Who would offer such a rate if they actually ended on paying anyone that or the accounts are.... - That's what I was thinking
  • If they have troubles paying it does not may what they "pay" per line. run aways - run, run fast

and have never had a single problem.  My first paycheck even got direct deposited.  They are wonderful to work for and have a ton of work!  I say go for it!!

Issue resolved here, too as of 2:30 p.m.  I really never had any doubts to begin with as pay has never been late. 

They are the most professional group of people I have ever worked with in 20+ years. 

It really irritates me that people have to come to a public forum and tell ALL to people who really have nothing to do with the issue.  If you have issues, go to management.  Maybe it's the people who have to run their mouths (fingers) to every MT in the country that haven't gotten their checks yet. 

Boy, things sure do come back to bite sometimes, don't they?

to give it until tomorrow. 

I need to the real specifics on this company before I accept their offer.  The pay they are stating is within reason.  Does their accounts consist of ESL doctors?  Does any of their paychecks bounce?  Please help, thanks.  Good bless the hurricane victims.

Any info out there on Ascend Healthcare? Any suggestions on a great company to work for when one is just looking for part-time IC status employment?

I have worked for several medical transcription companies over the years and have found Ascend Healthcare to be the worst company, by far, to work for.

A very-very negative atmosphere . .

No direct deposit available. .

Constant idol threats . .

Holds checks for 2 weeks after each pay period ends.

A lot of heavy ESL . . and very hard dictators.

Management - Backstabbers

Penalties are sometimes assessed for errors; docking $ money from paycheck

The list goes on and on . . . .

Their PTO is good.  Lots of ESL's.  I wasn't there long enough to see about a raise, but something after 120 days they were supposed to evaluate you for it.  They always pay on time.  Platform is very easy to learn. 

I don't know about their line counting system.  I don't trust it only because several times when I would send a job I would keep getting it back several times already typed by myself.  I even got a report that was already fully typed from another person, I didn't take credit for it. Trust me, they wouldn't break or abandon a report that long it had no blanks and 1 QA marker.  I didn't think it was right. I asked the WFC and she said to abandon it.  I got that typed report back every time I would finish a job that day. So I dont know how often that happens, but I didn't like it.

Not trying to bad talk the place, everyone was very nice, nice doesn't cut it..when it comes to work, don't expect any, and don't expect anyone to get back to you about a second acount, plan on working all weekend every weekend. 

I don't know about everyone else, but when I pick a schedule, I pick it for a reason, to work it.. not to work every day and every time but that. I don't mind it here and there, but it was EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND.  Sayin how they are tired of always having the same people being team players.

They require one weekend day a week.  I wasn't able to work any other time really than the schedule I picked

Anyways.. I worked 5 hour days there and I ended up with no more than 200 lines a day.

Might be different for you, but I'm just giving you my experience.

Check out page 2 or 3 on the company board there is more talk about them there.
