Keystrokes has the best radiology accounts IMO. I have plenty of work and radiology only. nm
I make a good living and rarely run out of work. When I do, it is for a few minutes at a time and usually because the rads have not started early enough. No other complaints!
For radiology, Keystrokes is the way to go. They seem to have the most radiology accounts. sm
I have been very, very busy since starting with them 19 months ago. No complaints at all other than one or two of the radiologists who speak at the speed of light and expect us to be able to transcribe what sounds to be a mouse on a treadmill!
Radiology accounts
I haven't had any problems with my line counts at all. Doing as well or better than I did with Medquist now that I'm used to the doctors.
Do they have Radiology accounts?
If so, do you have contact information for them. TIA
can anyone tell me about the radiology accounts...

under DeVenture and T-C Transcription, and who would be the better of the 2?  I don't need benes---main concern is having enough work (at least majority of the time).  Also the platform and pay.  TY


Is Axolotl getting new accounts or replacing MTs?
Are they hiring for new accounts?  Is it Acute Care or Clinic?  Seems like a lot of chatter recently on the board about companies running out of work between Thanksgiving and Christmas and I heard Axolotl was a small company with very few acute care accounts to begin with.  New accounts don't always go live when expected.  Just wondering how much work there will be for new hires. Since you currently work there, any other info you feel comfortable passing on would be appreciated such as ESL and QA.  Thanks. 
Does anyone know if Amphion has Radiology accounts? sm
I heard there was a clinic side... does that mean specialty accounts?
How bout radiology accounts?

Worst radiology accounts I ever had - sm
There was more changing screens, adding patient demographics, and typing in yet another screen, that it took longer to set up the report than to type it....awful accounts and sound quality. I hated it.
The two radiology accounts I was hired for
at Transtech immediately disappeared after much difficulty getting set up. Not blaming TT per se but not giving them high marks, either. Would suggest you ask questions to determine if any Radiology position is dependable - stay away from the Powerscribe jobs.

Just my experience so take the above with a grain of salt - others may have all positives..
Does Transtech have ER or Radiology accounts? TIA (nm)

Are the Insight Radiology accounts outsourced
Lately NO work in there!
For Radiology, try Keystrokes. I know they are hiring on one of my accounts. sm
The hospital just hired KS to do their whole department. I think they will be doing their Med/Surg stuff too.
Wmx has acute, clinic, radiology and ER accounts. nm
.
The best place for radiology is by far Keystrokes. There have a lot of rad accounts and sm
I know of a few more that are starting this week and the next few weeks. This would be a good time to check with them. I have worked pretty much everywhere before KS. I have been with them for 2 years now and have steady work, good pay and love my account! My backup accounts are good too but I never have time to work on them.
Lots of work on radiology accounts
And whew, are my hands tired....but I made 5th tier the first week and the top bonus tier this week,
That is only for ortho and clinic, not HIM and radiology and only certain accounts. sm
I am Mon-Fri. I have not worked a weekend in 3 years with the exception of one Saturday because I took off on Monday and switched with someone.
I love Webchart! I do not know of anyone with radiology accounts on it. sm
Can you share?
Information on Keystrokes Radiology Accounts

I would like to hear from anyone who WORKS at Keystrokes doing their radiology accounts and how it is going for them; i.e. pay, enough work, do you get paid per line/per report.  Thanks so much! 


I have worked for them for 4 years. There are always new radiology accounts. sm
They have grown a lot since I started and radiology seems to be what they grow the most in. I know that this month alone, 3 different radiology accounts have started and from what I hear, all are pretty good.
Is it easy to get line counts on Precyse radiology accounts?? sm

anyone using dial up with radiology accts, are you getting good line counts?  i've done a search on archives and reading info about the company.  anyone else radiology-wise care to share their experience?


thanks!


I work on acute care accounts, so I can't speak for the radiology side. (SM)
The work does look like it's beginning to pick up though for acute care.
Keystrokes for radiology. They are the biggest for radiology out of all of the companies out there.
I have been there 2 years and have been very happy. I make a lot more money than when I worked for Edix/Spheris.
Keystrokes has a radiology division. They used to be radiology only but their sm
customers started referring other departments to them.

I know that they just got a bunch of new accounts!
If radiology is going to VR, why are there so many job openings for radiology MTs? nm

Ascend Radiology & MDI Radiology?
Is anyone currently working on or know anything about Ascend radiology or MDI radiology accounts?  What platforms do they use?  Do they have a lot of ESLs or crappy dictators?  Thanks in advance
Are they losing accounts. Do most of their accounts stay for long period of time. I have
heard pros and cons about the quality of their work.  I guess it is much cheaper than other companies can offer.
Because the girls that monitor the accounts in the office were told the accounts either go on DQS or
move on. All accounts to be with MQ must be on DQS and no more different platforms. ONE ONLY DQS. They can send more work overseas then.
MDI-FL but not all accounts. Only the internet-based ones. C-phone accounts are fine.

So, yes, let me clarify before everyone gets in an uproar.. There is work IF you want to use a C-phone. IF you signed up for an account that is internet-based, you will be disappointed. Not enough work to go around. Just my personal preference.. I have no desire to do a dial-up C-phone account using my long distance.


Some do and have good accounts and fully loaded ESL accounts
Take a look at what is happening in India. For the first time, workers there have money to get themselves into debt by buying high priced items (cars for example). They now protest lower castes being allowed into universities at almost double the previous allowance. Wait until they are highly in debt, begin to feel entitled to a wage equal to that paid inthe US and then, try to form unions, get tossed out into the street and sit back with some Ben and Jerry ice cream and watch the economy collapse and all that dictation come back across the ocean. Timing is everything.
Find out which accounts they are hiring for. They have some ESL accounts that are extremely
difficult to do.  I dont know how many accounts they have altogether but as I say, a few are very difficult and I actually dont have a problem with ESLs but these accounts are almost totally ESL.  I dont do them anymore.
Well it sounds like no work happens a lot at DSG. How are the accounts as far as decent accounts
and their QA. 
Different accounts have different platforms. Most accounts require sm
high speed but I am not sure if satellite is OK.

I don't think that they're hiring right now. I spoke with my lead on Thursday, who said they are focusing on making sure everyone has enough work and moving PTers to FT, eventually moving towards FT only with only weekends as PT. Not 100% sure when that is though.
Hmm..well it goes to show how different it can be between accounts. My "high" ESL accounts s
at WMX are pretty easy in my opinion as well. I wish I had a better answer for you. Hang in there if you can. You have to do what is right for you.
Six accounts?!?! That is nuts! I am on 3 accounts. nm

When did you apply? Was it this year - just curious before I answer their advertisement.

Does anyone know anything about this company... How they pay???  Anything in general would be helpful... Thanks

I cannot believe that they are still in business. I know that they have an office in Tampa. Not sure how they are doing. Keep doing your research/investigation on this company.

Anyone know about Axolotl QA?

Any info on this company, any feed back please.

When I worked for them a year ago, their typing platform was slooooooooooooow. I am a very fast typist, and I very seldom could reach my line count with them. I had to wait 3 minutes or more (depending on the length of the report)for a report to send to the hospital, and could not start a new report until that one was sent. Spent a lot of time playing Solitaire on my computer. If you are fast, you will be extremely frustrated.

Anyone ever hear of this company?  I am considering and any information appreciated


Thanks


Axolotl
Any info please?  It seems like recently with in the last month or so I read posts by an MT that just started with them and thought things were going great, as far as the system, staff, work, etc.  Anyone please any info?  Thank you.

I have two friends that recently went with this company in the past month and they really like it. They have been offering OT every day so there is plenty of work
Axolotl

Any Axolotl employees out there??  Are you happy? 


I am considering accepting an offer from them.  It seems they have a lot to offer.   I am currently with Medware and very, very unhappy with them lately. 


Any advice appreciated.

The management staff is very friendly.  Horrible accounts with the world's worst ESLs.  The percentage of ESLs was so high, I highly suspect cherry-picking.  Made less than minimum wage trying to decipher this garbage, with nearly 15 years of experience.  Editors who don't know the difference between affect and effect, yet deign to pick apart your work and leave snide comments.  Is that enough info? 
I also would like to know about Axolotl, please.....sm
I had an interview and would like to know more about this company, before I make a decision. I see there really are no recent posts regarding this company.  Any recent information would be ever so helpful with my decision.  Is the platform slow, how are the incentives, benefits, communication between employees and management, etc.?  Thank you.
