For your own protection do not even think of working for Atypical Transcription in Arizona.  She does NOT pay.  What a jerk.

The Transcription House out of Arizona, anyone heard of???
I would like any information on this company. I am googling MT companies and am coming up with ones I haven't heard much about. Anyone work for them? Good, bad, ugly??

Your experience is atypical.
They have no work on a consistent basis.  If you have a good ROM, you are the exception.  It may be not be the worse of the big companies but they, I have found, are terrible to work for.  But every once in a while someone gets lucky.  I guess it was you.
DDT - Arizona?
Anyone hear of the company DDT out of Arizona?  I could not find a website or anything about them in the archives.  Any info would be much appreciated.  Thanks
DDT in Arizona

T-C Transcription...anyone working there?...sm
Is there anyone here currently working for T-C Transcription out of Florida, or has worked for them in the past, with anything to share about how they are to work with, etc.?
mayo in Arizona too
There are two Mayo clinics in the Phoenix, AZ area as well and I believe there is one in Florida too. Phoenix is a really large city these days. If you can stand the head of summer (4-6 months =  it varies from year to year) the rest of the year the weather is wonderful!!!!

Tammy Arizona - New at Webmedx
Tammy,

As a former trainer at Webmedx (I retired) I must tell you that you are incorrect about typing in a web page. You are typing in Word, even though it may not appear that way.

As far as SHORTHAND, what exactly are you doing when it doesn't work? There are reasons for SH not working and there are very simple fixes built into the SH program. I was the SH instructor so, yes, I do know that it is not the program but rather something the MT does.

I own my own SH program and still use it daily, not just for transcribing. Try setting your Pause (under Preferences) to 20 msec after every 1 character and see if the helps you. You might also check to see what Text Transfer Method you are using, if you are using Clipboard Paste try switching to “keystrokes” although a little slower “pulling in” it is smoother and works every time.

Also, do you have physician normals in your SH program? By putting normals in you can definitely increase your line production.

Do you have regular phrases and all your medications in your SH? If you put in medications, did you also put in the dosing (where possible)?

I would hate to see anyone leave Webmedx. I understand ESLs are difficult - but after a while and with the use of the SH program one can go right along.

Further, if you are having problems getting your line count to 150 LPH (which I voted against but lost - I like 130-140 LPH) have you asked either trainer for help? The trainers are great and they are there long after you have finished your initial training to assist you in any way they can.

I hope you decide to stay!

PS: IMHO three weeks is not a fair trial/assessment - give it about 3 months at minimum.

PHILIS KORTGARD OF ARIZONA DOES NOT PAY

Just wanted to update that the final pay due my friend was AGAIN issued in a FRAUDULENT check.


If anyone sees an ad with Philis Kortgard of Arizona, I strongly urge you to recall the experience of my friend.   After spending a day trying to just communicate with PHILIS KORTGARD OF ARIZONA, my friend was told that the check is no good (uh duh she already knew that) and that it might be good next week.  And that if my friend thinks she has it bad, PHILIS KORTGARD feels she has it worse.  I wonder if the 2 young boys waiting on groceries to be purchased with this money will care if PHILIS KORTGARD is unhappy?

Mayo Clinic Scottsdale Arizona
I have been thinking of moving to Arizona for a year or so and wanted to work as an MT at Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale.  Are they outsourcing all their work now?  I read some old messages on this board saying the Arizona clinic outsourced some work, but it didn't seem like it was much.  I don't see the MT position open on their web page anymore and wonder if they have filled all positions or are completely outsourcing.  Anyone know?

Anyone ever work/currently working for Medical Transcription Services, Green Bay, WI?? Offered..sm
new radiology account there, great people to correspond with, but info is extremely scarce....have a few offers to weigh.....anybody??? Merry Christmas!  
Ditto.. Over 13 years experience working in hospitals doing all types of reports, currently working
for a national etc.. and Spheris told me I didnt have the qualifications. What cracked me up was the hospital I was working at at the time contracted some of our work out to them.. What a joke..I was good enough to work for a hospital and gave them work, yet not qualified enough for them. What is wrong with this picture.
MQ same situation. No pay for working holidays, no pay for working weekends nothing. Now noone works
much anymore and so they jerk the work out of the accounts to some place that throws it back with a lot of bad bad quality. This is the NE region. I dont know what the others are doing.
working from home is awesome but working for DSG is not...
horrible dictators, sound quality is bad, no answers to emails and they run out of work consistently...that is just my experience though...
Webinar -Evolving Medical Transcription: Technology's impact on traditional transcription process

Hey everyone, check out this link. This is what we are up against. Be sure and note how 3M or whoever is the sponsor of this webinar throws in that dictation and transcription is time-consuming.  Nevermind that EMR and VR take more time and money to be successful and it only takes 38 seconds to dictate a returning patient and 2 minutes to dictate a new patient versus 500 clicks on a point and click EMR or the mess VR makes and having to have an Editor come in and clean up the mess. Propaganda that we should know about.

So how is that working out for you?
x
Really? I'm working, too.
However, I'm working at the part-time job I was forced to get as soon as I figured out Transcend was screwing me.  I have nearly 1,800 lines in so far today.  How many do you have?
Are you still working for them? LOL
If you are, why don't you take your own advice -- leave. You're no victim except of yourself.

If you're not working for them, what's it to you? We're all adults.

Whether or not a company is "good" or "bad" (such juvenille generalizations, lol) is a matter of perspective and there are PLENTY of us who don't share your views.
Are you working for them now?
I just interviewed with them yesterday and have not heard back.  Are you working for them now?  How is that working out for you?  Are you happy?  Thanks
working
I, too have worked for other services. I think Transcend is excellent. You can make as much or as little as you want. I agree with you everyone is very nice and helpful and easy to talk to and most helpful. I have a different job at Transcend now and I think that very much, but I also transcribe whenever I get a chance.
are you still working for them?
x
I liked working for them but there
wasn't enough work on the 2 accounts that I was on to justify the fee for leasing the equip and I don't make enough yet to make purchases like dictaphone, lanier, etc.  they always pay on time and CORRECTLY!  if I ever purchase equipment like that I'll definitely be contacting them again.
And how would you know who is working and
I sure don't!
She could have another job and working before she would even
begin to qualify for unemployment. Why put herself through that anguish. She should resign and move on. She'd have a job in one day it is my guess. Unemployment should not even be an issue here. Most people can find jobs in this business very easily.
