Who still hires SE status?

Whether MDI-FL hires IC or just employee status.
I am thinking of applying but only want IC right now. I am not really interested in being tied to a schedule or need the benefits. I like the flexibility that IC offers..Thanks
who can you recommend that hires prn status?
thanks.
Can anyone tell me if FutureNet hires you as employee status or is it just IC
IC only and your checks are either mailed to you or you can have them sent via UPS with a $25 deduction taken out of your check.
AXOLOTL only hires employee status

You're describing p.r.n. status, not IC. You need to look for a company who hires sm
p.r.n. MTs.
Can anyone tell me if Future Net hires you as employee status or is it just IC? Any info on them? nm

Does MedWare have IC status now?
I used to work for them as an IC a few years ago, but then they discontinued that.
Anyone know if they currently hire IC's?
What line rate does Medware pay for 28 years experience but no CMT status for an employee, also
is the pay higher for IC?
Guess I'm tired, too, should be "employee"

Keyword is "employee." Employer can demand any

Ironically, an "employee" would sing the praises of CIT when they were hiring and then I found
the real poster was the manager so I believe this also is management. I think it is pretty low for a manager to pretend to be an employee trying to recruit other people under false pretenses.
old hires get double pay; new hires now get 4 cents more;

Agree..with IC status, equip. is your responsibility; employee status - you should SM
not have to pay out-of-pocket for use of their equipment. I would never work employee status for a company who required me to purchase or lease their equipment. The only thing I would find acceptable is to have a small security deposit taken out of paycheck when starting with a company. This will protect the company from those few who might abuse the equipment.
Anyone know of Escription companies that offer IC status. I do not want employee status but would
like to stick with the Escription platform at all possible.
Employee status w/benefits vs IC status??? Dilemna enclosed
I am caught between a rock and a hard place and figure this is the place to get the best advice from those in the know. I have been an IC for the past 5 years and love the flexibility but was interested in a job with benefits. I started a new job about a month ago with good pay (2 lph more than I was making) and benefits......very happy with company but as an employee, obviously have a schedule. I am working both jobs currently and starting to burn out. On the new job, I am struggling to get the 1200 lines per day required but on my old.... I can easily get 150-400 lph depending on the dictator but again, it is IC and less lph than the new job. Obviously, the platform is different and not paid for template headers/footers wheras the old one, I am paid for those. Now to my question. Is it just me? Is it because I really enjoyed the freedom of ic status and therfore seem to be struggling? Anyone else experienced this before? Tempted to go back told job and lose benefits/more pay because in the end, maybe it works out be the same pay because of amount of time I spend getting the job done? Not sure if this makes sense but hoping you can all offer some advice!! TIA
Also do they have IC positions?
tia too
Both positions are for...
large teaching facilities with many different types of reports. The test reports I did included a chest x-ray, mammogram, MRI, CAT scan, and a few interventional procedures. So I'm thinking maybe the gross line method would be best?
Positions..
Would anyone know where to find MT management-type job openings on the internet? Have been searching with no luck. TIA!
IC positions
Can anyone tell me which companies still hire ICs. TIA!
Is there an ad for MT positions somewhere? sm
I don't see an ad here. Please let me know.
No, they are actually 2 different positions
You are the 24-hour PT fixed schedule.
For MTs who want to work 20 hours and under, they work when they are needed or something like that. It's in the other posts.
good luck with MQ
IC positions
Does anyone know of any IC jobs that allow you to work the hours you want, with just a weekly line requirement?
MDI positions
Keep checking back with them on your resume, and if nothing pans out try again in a few months. I imagine they have been flooded with resumes this week from MQers. They are usually pretty good about not overhiring and keeping the accounts staffed adequately so it all stays in TAT but people have enough work.
PT Positions
Hi - I currently work part-time for a company that is consistently running out of work (a bunch of you can probably guess which one). I am looking for somewhere where I can put in about 10 hours weekly to supplement. Can anyone recommend anywhere that would hire for such limited hours? I do not want to leave my current company just yet - only been there a year.....but do want something permanent and steady.
QA positions
This is possibly a stupid question but how do you get a job in QA? I have been a medical Transcriptionist for over 24 years and would love to do some QA work. Can anyone give me some insight into this? THANKS!
QA positions
Thanks so much Heather! That is exactly what I am going to try doing as well.
What's with all the IC positions I'm seeing lately?
It was just a matter of a few years ago that the IRS was stomping on just about any MTSO that used what I will call (for want of a better term) the IC dodge to get out of withholding taxes, paying their share of SS, unemployment insurance premiums, etc., etc.
At the time, the IRS published a list of something like 20 questions or criteria that had to be met for an individual to truly be considered an independent contractor - and none of the MTSOs they audited met the criteria. I was personally involved with a company that was declared in violation and it cost them plenty. I also heard about a number of others that were similarly penalized.
For the most part, this IC thing is just what I called it above - a DODGE. In almost every sense, in most cases, the individual is an EMPLOYEE. One of the criteria, for instance, included the degree of control over HOW the work was to be done, WHEN the individual had to work, etc. and it's almost impossible for an MTSO not to exercise more control than the IRS likes to see.
One explanation could be that the IRS is concentrating on other industries right now. They're so short-handed in their auditing division that they have to prioritize what they go after each year. Maybe they thought they had cleaned this up and moved on. If so, they should come back and take another look, because this is starting to rear its ugly head again.

eliminated positions
Well.... I'm not sure which account you are talking about, but what actually took place was this.... for each of the .. I think 3 accounts there was a day and an evening lead MT. On the acct I worked on there was also a night lead .. though I'm not sure about the others. What they did was tell the leads that their positions were eliminated and actually created new positions, positions which were lead positions, both covering 3 accounts instead of one... plus they are required to type 600 lines on their shift... which basically means they will be of no support to the MTs.. which I felt was the most important part of my job. You will not find anything which violates labor laws in this.... As far as integrity in a company that would do that to their employees.. that is different story. Now.. what you might learn by reading through the facts on this site...
http://www.dol.gov/elaws/
is that these people seriously violate the labor laws when it comes to the amount of work-related hours their MTs put in which they are not paid for.... now THERE is something that cannot be denied. Please tell whichever lead it is ... that I know how she is feeling.. and it shouldn't be allowed... but then..firing an employee after 28 years of working in the same hospital for fabricated reasons after you find out she knows you have been playing doctor with one of the married physicians on staff... and are afraid she might tell... well that isn't right either.. but .. it still happens all the time...the only and very best thing we can do ... is swear to be better people than those who are willing to screw the rest of us to get ahead....
Editor positions
I would be interested in becoming an Editor ... I have been an MT for 25+ years and would welcome $14.00 an hour. Please send email.. thanks
Maybe the M-F positions are filled? Don't know
nm
How about QA positions? May be interested.
Went on website and looks like you can only apply for MT. ?
Hospital positions
The hospitals themselves have rules that they only hire from certain states. I have never really gotten a definite answer as to why, but I believe it has to do with the state tax withholding and they are only compatible with certain states. I work for one of these hospitals, but I could not work for the other one because of the state I live in.
It's too bad they put you through all of that without checking first. It should be one of the first things the recruiter checks for a hospital position I would think. There is more than one hospital, so make sure you don't qualify for any of the other ones.
do they offer QA positions?

All IC positions and they do offer
positions are all full

MD-IT psych positions
Has anyone interviewed with and heard from MD-IT regarding their psych positions? I interviewed last week and still have not heard anything...
psych positions
Can someone tell me who MD-IT is? website? Thanks.
Most of those are inhouse positions so just
NM
They were only hiring for 5 positions
I know that the recruiter was overwhelmed with the amount of resumes she received. However, I do know that they go through the resumes and keep the qualified MTs on file for the next time they hire.
The ones accepting these positions must be SM
newbies, cause I can't believe an MT with much experience would put up with it.
QC editing positions??
I am currently with Focus and have been given the choice of quitting or working a fixed shift for productivity. I now work for productivity and at least can make up for it later if I have equipment issues or no work. Know of any good ON-SHORE companies to work for?
QC Editing positions?
I also have been given only a few days, so I am putting out resumes and finding out if my #1 job has extra hours to give me (I'm only part time with my first job.) I've gotten a response from one company today.
Re Focus: I also have issues with how Focus they change their productivity sheets every few months and how they change their line count calculation back and forth whenever it suits them. The new line count calculation produces much less and when using so much time with that very cumbersome auditing software program, I figure I am lucky to bring in $12 an hour any more when I used to average over 20/hr during my 2nd month with Focus.
New graduate positions
Does anyone know any company who hires new graduates or can point me in the right direction?
Do you mean 60 positions are being affected? sm
I sent you an email.
No, I mean 60 positions open
and available for filling. Even if she meant 16, that is quite a bit. Again, more information available upon (E-mail) request.
Employee Positions
I am looking for a full-time employee position as I need benefits. It seems everything is IC. Does anyone know of companies that are hiring full-time employees? Thanks in advance!
