Avenir post on job board...sm
I am REALLY confused now, they want In-house MTs....where? in their US office or in India? jeez.
It is - Google Avenir and med transcription - sm
The first thing that pops up is BANGALORE and then a blurb about Avenir technologies, blah blah. Disgusting.
Technologies
I am a small MT company that has been blessed with a fabulous MT and QA team. Recently I sat down and looked at every paycheck sent out from our payroll vendor. I was really shocked at what I found. I think a more appropriate term would be embarrassed. This team works harder than any group I have ever seen and manages to push more than a million lines a month. Can anyone suggest any technologies that would help increase volume without any additional effort on their part? I have been looking into Dragon Speak as a way to increase volume assuming they would be primarily editing not transcribing and the accuracy states close to 99%. Any comments?
Technologies
I am definitely not thinking of getting rid of anyone. I have access to as much volume as I can produce so my intentions are not to screw anyone out of a job. My intentions are to put more money in the pockets of the people who deserve it. It is not about me making more money, I can continue to recruit employees and vendors to expand and I will make the same amount of profit doing so.
This is honestly about the team that puts everything they have into their work and getting them compensated for it. I thought perhaps Dragon Speak would transition my MT team into more of an editing team. At the same pay rate I was hoping that would at least double their paychecks.
I am only looking for constructive comments about how to help MTs/QAs, I wont waste anymore time defending the purpose so please don’t waste yours. If you have valuable suggestions I would greatly appreciate them. The only software I have for them now is SmartType.
Technologies
Thanks for all the great suggestions and feedback. I also thank you for the positive comments as well; the MTs & QAs are actually the ones who are so wonderful, management is just trying to catch up with them. Like many other MT service companies we have made our share of mistakes, and we grateful to those who have allowed us to make up for them.

FutureNet Technologies
Does anyone have any information on FutureNet. I have an interview scheduled on Thursday. Thanks.
FutureNet Technologies
I've worked for them for about 7 months, and I like it. They have ESLs like most places...some good and some not so good.
FutureNet Technologies
I never paid to have mine overnighted via UPS, and I'd usually have it the following Tuesday. I'm now an SE, and it's direct deposited.
FutureNet Technologies
Who is your REAL job with REAL benefits with? I'd say that paycheck I get every couple of weeks is adequate proof to me that FutureNet is real. I do wish I could get benefits, but this is the best-paying job I've had in my almost 6 years as an MT.
Any info about CPR Technologies? nm

Info on Medical Voice Technologies? Job offer
Anyone familiar with this company? Just curious. Possible job.
Would it bother you as much....sm
if the AAMT meeting had been held in Detroit or Cleveland or some other place that was not as, shall we say, vacation like?
The management of MW (and any other company for that matter) who went to the AAMT meeting did so as a part of their job. Their job is to watch the industry, make contacts and interact with other companies in the industry to try to better our working conditions and further our ability to do our jobs, just as our job is to transcribe and edit reports and learn all we can to improve ourselves and the work we do. Whether you like it or not, there is a separation between MTs and management and a separation between what we do and what they do. Don't like it? You have a couple of options here. You can work on improving yourself and making a name for yourself with your company as a trustworthy and valuable employee and rise to the ranks of management and then have the opportunity to be sent to the AAMT meetings or you can work hard, put some money aside, join AAMT and go on your own.....or you could just continue to sit there and bellyache about it. The choice is yours. The meeting next year is to be held in Queensland on Australia's Gold Coast. Better start saving up now.
TRS - don't bother
I talked with the recruiter in October and he could not explain their pay rate and/or guide that is used. It is very confusing and they have a very difficult time keeping people.
Don't bother with them.
They're trouble.
Don't take the job if you think it will bother you
I hated working for them just for that reason.
Don't bother!
I did not like that company whatsoever. Office manager was not nice.
Don't bother!
This company is a nightmare. I live in New Jersey. Constant turnover. Horrible management. They advertise over and over again. That should tell you something about them. They cannot keep somebody for more than a week. Do not even waste your time with this place! You will be sorry!
why bother
Some companies think that just because you have those 3 little letters behind your name you know more than any other MT. This is far from true, it only means those people paid the outrageous price to test and passed the test. I started a part-time job over 2 years ago and the company refused to pay me what I was actually worth because I didnt have CMT behind my name. Even though I have 18+ years' experience as a Transcriptionist and Editor they refused to pay me the 2 dollars more an hour that the CMTs were getting. So I did the same work and somebody with less experience but with the CMT got more money than me. Needless to say I have since left that company.
Why do they bother?
I was contacted by a company to work for them. I told them exactly the days I could work and how much I was willing to work. When they sent work for the weekend, I explained to them that I do not work weekends. Well, I did not hear from them again. Tried contacting them Monday. Tried sign on Monday and was locked out. Did not get a email until Tuesday afternoon stating my quality was just not good enough. I've been at this for 15 years!
Don't bother...
Maybe I'm just not what she's looking for, but she emailed me back and said the positions were filled.
If they were, that was pretty fast!
Don't bother. They still run out of
schedule but there's never enough work to do that. It's the same one account and it's still APEX. Same crappy dictators. The disorganization in the office is getting worse every day. As far as QA it depends on what QA person you happen to get. Difference is night and day. If I was already out and had the choice to make I'd never look back. I'm probably leaving after the new year so you can always have my place 
Okay, thanks! Will not bother then! no msg

Run... why bother to beg?
Oh my gosh, please just apply to a company that will appreciate you and stop coming across as a beggar... Please save us the dignity... There are soooo many companies to choose from. Why would you want a job with a place that never even returns a phone call??????? Tell me why??????????? I've been doing this for over 20 years, and I hope to never be in your position with all of that experience on this board begging to work for a particular company.... Why are you doing that? How sad! 
Don't bother
If you like spending $100 for equipment for a job that you don't know will work out, spending all day at your computer waiting for work that may or may not be there, trying to type 20+ files in 2 hours because all the dictation was loaded at the same time, having your line rate cut to help support the MTSO's lifestyle, then this job may be for you.
Why does it bother you what I say? sm
Not the business for me? Sounds like its not the business for the poster or you either. I have been in this business I am quite sure longer than you have and I still make very good money. I guess that could be because I am not worrying about what the MTSOs charge and I just sit and do my work and make my money.
Why do you care?
BTW, not the business for your? Hmmmmmm You are the one who is bent out of shape and defensive and stressed! Good Lord!
why does it bother you what sm
she says? Does it strike a raw nerve? She hasn't said anything that isn't true yet.
I won't even bother to answer this.
It's "misspelled." And most don't bother with
nm
I agree, don't bother...
The pay is low. It's based on multiple factors including QA, lines per hour and how much of your work you send to QA. I actually didn't mind the low pay because (at the time) the staff was very friendly. It's when they started the training in Trinidad that my warm feelings for this company started to sour. My feelings for them completely soured when they announced that they would be training people in Guiana as well. I don't approve of the offshoring of medical records (and American jobs) to other countries, however, the fact that they put a humanitarian spin on it is what really did it for me and I left just a few months ago after being there for about a year.
I wouldn't bother if I were you,
not very nice owner.
When I tell people, it really seems to bother them
It even freaks some of them out, especially in light of electronic identity theft and no way to enforce U.S. law of confidential records in other countries. Some woman in Pakistan actually threatened a hospital in California with putting patient records on the internet! Claims that software is made so it cannot be saved on the computer are bull: It can be copied and pasted or even written down by the MT and passed on. Here it's a felony and we're accountable. Not there. It does scare people when you tell them that. And it should. I just don't think many people are aware, realize the ramifications of it, or know what to do about it.
They all will be. Do they even bother recruiting in US
xx
I agree, don't bother
Now i never had the tech issues but i was IMed to death and just flat out got annoyed. Didn't get my last check either even long after returning their foot pedal. That is one company that definitely does not have it together
Why bother answering at all
if you are a no thanks?
WHAT PART OF WHO WOULD *SUPPORT*... was confusing?
:)
Oh...that doesn't bother me
Seems to be that only negative posts are allowed on this thread! If I wanted my name recognized by MDI, I would have posted it, but that's not what I'm here for. I've often thought about posting before, but never have because I knew this is what I would get for it, but that's okay...I'm still happy at MDI!
