It's been pretty consistent for me, but I work for two companies and type several doctors
and even with that, sometimes it gets slow, and then when it picks up, it is really hectic. It's so hard with this type of work to get it just right :)
Work is consistent
I work at AllType and we are consistently busy and getting new accounts as well.
Consistent work
I know there are a lot of negative posts on here about MQ, but it is the only company I have worked for that I did not have to worry about being out of work. Some call it the *cesspool*, I call it a safety net if my primaries ever get low on work, and I don't have to waste my valuable time calling someone to ask for work because it is automatic if primaries are low. They also pay on time everytime and have been very flexible with my schedule, I prefer a split shift. Pay could be better, but more than some other places, and always having work available is the most important for me as being out of work would devastate me financially. As a matter of fact, it was the guarantee of always having work that made me switch to them as the national I was with previous was running out of work on my primaries too often and I had to spend too much time begging for other work. I am very happy at MQ after experiencing working for some other nationals, TT and KS specifically were fairly consistent about being out of work in my experience. I also really like the DocQScribe platform at MQ and the fact that they supply all the equipment; I no longer have to worry about what would happen if somehting went wrong with my personal computer and I could not work or afford to get it fixed or replace it. I have never had a problem with communication, my PS is great at getting back to me promptly.
The people complaining about the *cesspool* at MQ on here are the same ones who will complain about being out of work when in actuality work is available, they just refuse to do unfamiliar accounts, thus affecting their own paycheck, never happy. Personally, I don't have enough extra money to be that picky about work and I am relieved to find a company who can consistently supply me with work. Good luck in whatever you decide and I hope you find the right fit! 
Is there consistent work at MDI-Fl, Precyse, or

Stay with the one that has the most consistent work available. nm

Does Focus have a consistent work?
I've been hearing good things about Focus and just took their online test. Is it true they have sufficient work to keep you busy and will give you one or two accounts and not a jumble of different accounts?
Goodluck - consistent work? not a chance. nm

You sold yourself short then. There ARE good compoanies out there with consistent work. sm
I work for one that is praised on this board and attacked on this board, depending on which way the wind is blowing.
The money and consistency are there for those who work hard.
My apologies for lumping you in with others.
I used to work for a company who separated the MTs by work type daily. sm
regret ever leaving that company. we had a max of 4 MTs typing a large training hospital with clinics. i was assigned consults and discharges with consults being my priority. another MT had ops and admits, etc. it worked so much better. we were RARELY out of TAT and each of us were trained on other report types for backup in case someone need to take off. not to mention that we were easily able to learn the ESLs because we got them repeatively enough to learn them, set up templates, etc. much, much more productive for us as MTs, for the company as work flow, and i am sure for the dictator because they got someone who knew them and their dictations well enough to be accurate. i don't understand why large MTSOs cannot comprehend how much more beneficial that would be.
This must be a consistent problem
As an IC you don't have to give notice if you are leaving and Tonya should know this. I stayed through two pay cycles and that was ENOUGH. You have to beg and continually ask to get paid so your situation is not unique.
I think a big part of the problem is it comes from India. I left right after we received a notice that the line count function did not work and that our lines are counted manually. Why was the line count such a big secret?
A growing company is one thing but pay is another. Pay should not be contingent on growing 
At least one thing with SS is consistent . . .
You can always count on this clown to show up being rude and obnoxious! Seems like upper management has a lot of time on their hands, doesn't it? Seems a little odd, they're the ones ALWAYS running ads looking for MTs and most of us have our choice of jobs when we start looking. What's wrong with that picture?
Exactly! MTSO needs a consistent IC that she can count on. Take off now and then but you
:+
Fast Chart is Consistent
I have been with Fast Chart for about 10 months. You're right. You do start at the bottom, but rapidly move up. They do pay for all headers and footers. There people are great and completly honest.
Is this consistent 3000 lines per day
I have hit 3200 lines on a secondary ER account, but not on a consistent basis because the work ran out. This was also working overtime on a VERY easy account with very good normals. It is my understanding that this account no longer exists.
I meant a consistent workload.
Sorry, it's been a long night at the computer. I should have caught that.
Are there any companies with consistent workload?
No matter how many accounts I get, there never seems to be enough work and now, with the holidays almost here, all of my accounts are picked bone dry. Bah humbug.
I do not work for them, but I have done recruiting for companies of their type of work
It is A LOT different than regular medical transcription. The pay is a little less (unless you are proficient and fast), but the work is harder in that there are multiple people speaking and the nature of the medical advisory boards are quite detailed. I receive quite a few resumes of medical transcriptionists wanting to do this type of work, but when you test them, it is a whole different ballgame.
Good luck and let me know how you do on the test!
The download speed is not consistent, can be as slow as
dial-up at times. I had it for a year so I know. Satellite is also not secure, so if company is 100% compliant with HIPAA satellite would not be allowed.
I had lots of problems with my satellite, though I was never without for more than a day. Customer service was the absolute pits. They have since updated some of their equipment that is suppposed to eliminate some of the issues.
Try All Type. I do not work for them, but - sm
many of my friends do as a part time job from their hospital job. One of them has been with them for over two years, and in this business, that is quite a long time!! LOL
Work type
Discharge summaries, clinic notes, H&P, etc. Specialties: Orthopedics, Rheumatology, Pulmonary, etc.
Yes, I am doing this same type of work (sm)
and have been doing so for a few years now. I definitely agree with you that it can involve a lot of research at times; however, I thought he stated in his ad that there might be room for negotiation on his starting pay depending on how many years experience someone had. I'm just interested in finding out how busy he keeps his transcriptionists. Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it!
All Type - Anyone work for them currently?
All I can find are posts from 2005 and early 2006. How are they to work for now, specifically do they have a flexible schedule? Thanks!!
They pay by work type SM
with ops paying the highest. I interviewed with them for a PT extra job and I thought they would be fine. Recruiter is very nice, down to earth, and easy to talk to.
What type of work did they take you on for?
I'm going to be doing an account with high ESL, as I'm very comfortable with them. Were you clinic or acute care? I'm worrying now :( That's the reason I left my company was because they couldn't provide me with enough work for even part time.
When do you type, when there is no QA work to do? NM
NM
Did they tell you pay is by the work type with
discharges being 6 or 7 cpl. I believe the only way to make real money is typing ops and working 3rd shift because you get an extra penny for that
It's not that far off for this type of work...
I understood it to be $1.10/page which would equate to $10-15/hour if you type 60 wpm. Who's to say the page isn't double-spaced? I type 100 wpm (no expander) so that would be a pretty decent wage in this day :)
What type of work do they do?
Is this clinic or acute care work? Employee or IC? I'm interested in clinic work w/weekends free if available. I don't like the Sun-Thurs or Tues-Sat schedules... Thanks for any info!
I AGREE COMPLETELY! I'd rather be paid a consistent, respectable hourly rate

It is DEFINITELY worth it to get the work type you want. nm

All Type - Work & Fairness
I can totally sympathize with you - if one is capable of doing the crap work that is who they give it to. They are short-staffed in both MTs and QA, but I understand they are currently hiring  .
As an aside, I would ask ,when applying for acute care, what the volume of ESL will be and what the work-types will be for the particular account for which you will be working. I know, for a fact, you are not provided with the account information until you start training; by the way their Trainer (Carolyn) is very nice!!
Anyone currently work for All-Type? Have a question. sm
Their website says need unlimited long distance service. Then it says method of sending/receiving files is high speed internet. Current employees, which is correct? How are you currently working - on line or over the phone lines? Thanks.
What type of work and IC or employee? nm
nm
depends on work type
If you can do mostly ops you can fly and make a tremendous amt. If you do HP con and DS it slows you down and makes typing more lucrative. VR makes money for the company by causing huge decrease in payroll costs but does not benefit the majority of MTs.
anyone work for Freedom Type?
TIA.  pros or cons?? Thinking about them.
Does anyone currently work for Silent Type?
I am interested in talking to someone who currently works for Silent Type and can let me know what the average number of pages they produce in a day. I was told that it doesn't matter how many lines are on a page, you are paid for the entire page. In some circumstances that would be pretty good, particularly if there were a lot of normals set up on the account. I am aware of their practices, the fact that you have to go to NJ to train, etc., but I really would like to know what their transcriptionists are making versus hearing that their rates stink. I have talked to a few people who say that they do not ever have turnover because their top transcriptionists make quite a bit of money, but I would like to speak to somebody who has been there done that.
Thanks!
I don't get any other work type after OPs. I call in to see if they
are backed up on other accounts that they need help with. I have 4 accounts and when they run out I call. I AM NOT CHERRYPICKING. I am doing what I am given!!
Does anyone work for Silent Type? (sm)
Do they have steady work, flexible schedules, benefits? Any info will be appreciated. TIA.
Does anyone use Vista and work at All Type?
Do you have any problems with it? I am wanting to buy a laptop with Vista and any info would be appreciated. Thanx.
Anyone here work for Silent Type
Any good/bad info, besides the travel to NJ for training? There isn't too much in the archives about them.
Thanks.
Depends on the type of work
In my own experience, if it were psych I'd jump on it in a heartbeat. Anything else, it may not be cost efficient, but it may end up being better than what a lot having been getting lately with the MT/VR combos.
Can anyone fill me in on what type of work Amphion has?
Is it a lot of ESL, and if so how bad/good are the accounts they have?
You can go to mtjobs.com and search by work type. nm

I work for All Type. They are a decent company.
Check them out. I am an IC but if you live in certain states you can be an employee or SE. Not sure if they need anyone right now though.
Anyone work for Freedom Type - please e-mail me nm
nm
But don't they just help other companies with overflow type work?
It seems to me that that would make the work load very unstable.
I work for Freedom Type. They pay twice a month. It's a very sm
pleasant place to work, all clinic. I love it there.
Does Smart Type work with Docuscribe? sm
entertaining an offer and need to know about this. Thank you.
May I ask what account you are on and what work type you are doing to get 1800 in five hours?
NM
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. 
Do they hire for one specific work type, say OP notes? nm
