If you look at previous posts, you are one of the few happy at Amphion.  It is common knowledge that the amount of secretarial work is HUGE and slows down one's production. 

I have transcribed almost 15 years and they were one of my worst experiences.  People that are applying should know exactly what they are getting into.

Like walking in a parade or working in a large circus along with some horses, elephants.  Only now, forced to walk BEHIND these creatures -- shovel or pick up their droppings -- but the horse or pachy is earning TWICE as much as I am. 

Want to compare two companies, please.  Precyse and Medware.  Platform?   Benefits?  Sure appreciate it.

Anybody familiar with Landmark Transcription and the Extext program they use?  Thinking about a change here and would like to know.  They also use Dictaphone and a word based program....I have been on the MQ DQS for so long, I am very unfamiliar with other programs.  Thanks.

Are you able to get as many lines per hour with nuance as you are able to get typing.  About how many lph do you type and about how many using nuance? 

Thanks

what is the starting line count rate for acute care at some of the big nationals? or the range?  How about for radiology or pathology?  Do most have incentive programs and what do they consist of?  If we could put it all together, we would eliminate a lot of posts and maybe have a reference for those of us looking so that we do not waste time, energy and the possibility of being lied to.

Here is what I know:

ETranz - 0.10 per line but my checks keep bouncing when I finally get paid very late.  No incentive.  No direct deposit.

Transolutions - 0.08 per line.  They supply the equipment and computer (or did 2 years ago).  Their system is a dinosaur.  I always got paid on time. 

I don't feel comfortable publishing them here, but email me privately and I will send you a comparison of the old rates and the new rates that obviously proves its a raise.  I'm working tonight but will gladly send it tomorrow to anyone that asks.

Also they sent an email to everyone yesterday stating PTO will be calculated just the same as it was before, based on what you made the prior pay period, bonus and all.

I guess quite a few people that are freaking out about this are going to feel silly in about a month when they are making more money and find out they were wrong.

Can someone give me the average ASR they are doing on hospital accounts?  Webmedx has recently switched to this and I am not sure it is a good move for me.  I currently transcribe between 250 and 300 lph and with ASR implemented and still learning, I am only getting 200 lph with it.  My cpl rate remains the same for another few weeks but then drops to 35% of my normal for any ASR work. ASR will have to do a lot better job or my income will drop dramatically.  Any words of wisdom appreciated.   

About to lose home-based hospital job.  Looking for transcription company.  So many.  They all say the same things...all claim to be great.  Where to start?  Help!
