Anyone know anything about Cbay out of Maryland and if all their work goes to India. Do they use any
American MTs or what is the deal.
Does anyone know the name of a transcription company in Maryland that sends all of its work to
India. Just curious.
Anyone know anything about Cbay at all in Maryland. Do they only send their work to India.

Don't worry just find out and then have a plan A and plan B
I have gone through something like this but not with that company. I too am the insurance provider for my family and there are preexisting conditions, so a private policy is no good.
First of all, I work elsewhere but had the same situation. I fell short of line count, but not because of me, because they did not have enough work, and I like many others cannot make quota because of the way they count lines. Then, on last paycheck there was a negative on insurance money taken out of check. I thought I lost insurance, but found out at the end of the year, they did an audit and found out that I overpaid all year and so I actually was owed money that check.
In the meantime, I found another job but have to wait 90 days for insurance. Can't find a policy to bridge the 2 jobs, insurance is on my mind all the time. My heart is with you. Personally I am getting the 90 day meds, working on my second job which will become my real job and if I lose the insurance, Cobra will kick in in case of disaster so that is like major medical.
Sorry such a long post, but I suggest: Not to panic. You probably did not lose insurance. Call the benefit provider to see you are still covered, not the employer. If you are not still covered, get 90 days of Rx if your plan covers by mail and be billed, immediately get another job which is a better place to work anyway (I found one) and in 90 days you will be okay. Some places like Disriter cover the first of the following month, but I would not necessarily suggest you work somewhere which is not so great just for insurance. You can consider TransTech. That would be my suggestion. Sorry for such a long post. But this hit a nerve and I wanted you to understand some options, as I have gone through it. Good Luck.
Their new pay plan brought me back to newbie wages since I don't do high volume. And the work loa

This is all part of the cost-saving plan..first, send your American MTs work to India so we sit here
with nothing and then manipulate the way the lines are counted. Sounds like cost cutting at our expense to me. 
Cannot get search function to work. I go up to the box
at the top of the page for the Google search and move it to search ''MT Stars.com'' but it never comes back with anything. I have tried several companies that I know have been mentioned on this board but it always comes back with no results.
You can go to mtjobs.com and search by work type. nm

MDI-Maryland.
Do they supply you with equipment or do you have to use your own.  TIA.
MDI-Maryland
MDI-MD is an excellent company...everything from the platform to the pay to the responsiveness of the staff.  The accounts are not for beginning MTs, but for anyone with over 5 years experience in most hospital work types the company is a real jewel.  Pay is every other Friday.  Status is SE, so that self-employment taxes are paid by company.  Great flexibility.
MDI-Maryland
I work for MDI and I love my accounts. I have had very few ESL. You are an independent contractor, that is all they hire. I started out at 9.5 cpl. The work on my account is easy. Teaching hospitals are not that different from others no matter what one may think. the account specifics are easy because they are the same on every account they have and the transcription is strictly verbatim. While, I am not that fond of verbatim, because of the docs have bad English skills, it's okay because then you know exactly what the QA is looking for. I did not test for the job. They do not perform audits as most nationals do. You set your own schedule, commit to your own amount of lines per day. It's the best company I have worked for and the people are great. The accounts are from Baltimore... I was leary of ESLs, but I have just about 4 or 5 of them and they are not that bad.
MDI-Maryland
MDI is a good company. however they do not pay extra for working nights,weekends, or holidays and you are expected to work 2 weekend days a month and 2 holidays.
Maryland
Do any hospitals in Rockville area hire local transcriptionists?  TIA
MDI-MARYLAND
I have never received anything positive from an MDI QA person. I asked for some positive feedback and also asked that it would be nice if they had to say something positive. Their response We don't have time for that All it takes is 2 words Nice job or Good job. How hard is that? They spent a lot time telling the negative, very little time telling the positive.
MDI Maryland
Heavy on ESLs but good cpl. Good supervisers and QA is generally good, unless you get on their list, then they're bears. Very, very, very flexible and accommodating. Nice folks.
MDI-Maryland
I've read the forums but cannot seem to find positives or negatives on MDI-Maryland.  Seems they are too good to be true.  Any comments would be very appreciated.
MDI-Maryland
I saw at the bottom of the page a post by Rhonda concerning MDI and how happy she is there. There are two MDIs, one in Florida and one in Maryland. I work for MDI-Maryland and I LOVE it!! The people are great, the DQA person I had was so wonderful--not harsh, not insultive, not punitive, just very, very helpful! I have been a MT for over 30 years and have worked for a lot of different places, but MDI is home from now on for me. I have never worked for a MT company who puts their employees first like this company does. They also pay very well and all MTs are SE status, which gives me all the flexibility I need. If you want a good MT home, go to MDI-Maryland.
MDI-Maryland does. nm

Does anyone know if this company is currently hiring?  I think you are only an IC.  Any employees out there with any info?  Thank you.
MDI-Maryland
I was just hired along with a friend of mine by MDI-Maryland and just had their training and still am on full QA. I think they are still hiring. They have a lot of work. Status is statutory employee, not fully IC, so they pay half of the taxes.
MDI-Maryland
Thanks for the info.  I appreciate it.

MDI Maryland Pay
Hi - Just started with MDI in Maryland but having trouble making as much as my old job.  Can anyone tell me how long it took to get up to speed?  Thanks in advance.
MDI Maryland
So far, so good for me. I'm still in training phase but they've been very quick to answer any questions, the platform is a breeze, and the pay isn't bad.

I've got 18 years of acute care experience and am a CMT, so I've seen a lot of mediocre, especially in the last few years. My early opinion - this company is a keeper, no offshoring, flexibility of schedule, excellent communication. Worth trying to get your foot in the door! : )
MDI- Maryland
Anyone working for them as a statutory employee? How are they to work for. Is work plentiful? Anyone working on Lanier account?
MDI Maryland
MDI is a wonderful company to work for. I've been with them on and off for over 5 years - after reviewing a lot of the offers on this site, as well as MT's pros and cons on other companies, I feel blessed to be working for a such a great company!

Good luck!

Good afternoon.  I'm looking for a part-time position and would love to apply with this company.  Can any current employees tell me where to go to apply?  If there's a referral program, please email me.  I have 11 years' experience in acute care and ER, all specialities except radiology.  I currently work full time and desire part time now.
No, MDI-MD (Maryland)

I have been at MDI-MD for a few years and am happy there. If you are looking for employee status, this isn't your place, but I love the totally flexible schedule, being able to work without someone looking over my shoulder constantly, and the good pay.
MDI in Maryland
Hi.  Does anyone work for this company and have any positives/negatives?  Thanks in advance!
yes, that is in Maryland, the one
with good posts (and some not so good lately). and they do NOT send work overseas. I work for them and am very happy with the company. e/m me if you wish.

What kind of work do they have - is it acute care, clinic, ER, or other? Also, they just hire IC right, no benefits? Is the work done through the Internet or a phone line?


Thanks :)
