Glad that's true for you for 8 years. Not true for many. I love the company, but I do run out of
as do many others. Wish I were as fortunate as you.
Very well put. I also hope you stay, GP.

Wow. Your kids are probably glad they don't have to stay home with you all day.
Why are you so grumpy?  She got on the board to share the precious moments that she was having with her kids, and you jump all over her!  Why do people have to be so miserable, and always find the negative in everything?
Glad for you! Let's hope Webmedx will follow suit.

I am glad to hear that a lot of money can be made with MT work. This gives me hope for the future.

I love Heartland and want to stay
I went through the training program and I loved it. Yes at the start you may only be doing a few jobs and waiting on feedback, but you are being paid by the hour doing this time. My sups were great and help me so very much and i keep in contact with them via e-mail all the time. I could have had first shift, but being a single mom i asked for thirds and i sleep while my kids are all at school. They train you on jobs and docs on the accounts you will go live on which i think is a big plus. In regards to not getting paid when there is no work. Just in the recent past the have now started to pay us our hourly rate for stand by time. You must check for work every 15 to 20 min. I was given many helpfu websites from my sups, and we was just given a new bonus program and rates also!!!. We have not been sold and on the last update we was given they had not even narrowed it down to 1 bider and that in itself does not mean HCR will sell. I love my job with Heartland and hope i can continue so. We get health, dental, vision, 401K, we get 10 days vacation after one year, 40 hours PT, 6 sick days a year and of course holidays. I myself cannot say anything but good about all those i have work with at Heartland.
I'd love to stay in touch via email...sm
just click on my user name. Look forward to hearing from you!
Welcome to KS....I hope you love it as much as I do...

Glad you're happy -- I love MDI-MD too, although I missed out on the signup bonus. :( nm

I love MT, but I am also so glad hubby has steady income and excellent benefits!
He retired with 20 years in the air force and has a retirement check from that, as well as standard and very basic benefits that we can use without paying a whole lot. He has worked full time since retiring from the air force (he was 40 when he got his 20) with excellent pay and awesome benefits that we pay a very low premium for. I used to make excellent cash as an MT when being paid on a gross line, but now I make maybe 20K a year with no benefits of any kind from my job. Now my income just supplements his and is for the extras we enjoy.
I hope it's a rumor..I left MQ for KS 3 years ago..I finally found a place I love (sm)
so I hope the rumor is not true!
I hope my company flies under the radar. This is horrible what happens to one company sm
after another on this board.  The owners must have very thick skin.  First TT, then Amphion, now Keystrokes.  No one is safe.  I hope everyone takes all they read with a grain of salt.  I have met a few of the owners of the some of the bigger services, and they are all very nice, including those that own Webmedx, Keystrokes, Execuscribe, Medware, MDI and Transcend.  I hate to think how they feel when they read things on here, even though they all say they don't read the posts here and advise against it.  I don't know how they don't read them; I look just to make sure that no one mentions mine.
Love this company, love my boss, very informative QA.nm.

Probably a company we should stay away from.
I am looking for a new home, and have been testing and interviewing like crazy, which I am sure is true for the rest of you. I imagine by the time Precyse gets around to contacting any of us, we will have found a new home.

Makes you wonder if they actually have positions available or if they just like to post ads.
Why would you stay with a company
reason most of us work is to buy groceries for our families and put a roof over our heads.  I couln't afford to work for a company that didn't pay decent.  What good is a company if you are living in a tent?
Definitely stay away from this company....
As someone else mentioned, lots of drama, no communication at all from the owner, and very low pay. They also offshore to India.
Which company is this; I want to stay far away
from them
STAY AWAY from this company!
Horrible experience, I wouldn't wish this company on my worst enemy.
TCI, Ohio...Please stay away from this company
The pay is horrible. The owner degrades you on a daily basis and they promise you tons of work and then CUT you when times get slow. Please from one fellow MT to another...don't waste your time! You deserve much better!
STAY AWAY!!! This company used to be called...

Quality Medical Transcription in Blue Springs, MO (which is not far from Pleasant Hill, MO), owned by the same contact person.  Not only do they offer ridiculous line rates (7 cpl w/o spaces IC status), when I worked with them my pay checks always bouced....that is after they would actually show up. 


Unless you are just absolutely desperate for work....I sincerely do not recommend working for this family.

Any company who wants to stay in business sends work out
It is called a blended model.  Hospitals are demanding a better price and US companies must offer offshore work that is edited by US MTs to compete.  It is just like voice recognition, a company must offer this platform or lose the ability to bid on the work.  It is not for every hospital and it is not for every situation.  Therefore, if a company does not have the ability to offer a lower price with non-domestic labor plus have a  voice rec option, they will find themselves unable to compete in tomorrow's marketplace.  Those who cannot compete will lose market share and continue to run out of work.  Those who can compete will continue to hire MTs and grow market share.
Honey, I am glad to have a job with ANY company!
In this economy, I don't date try to pick and choose based on whether a company outsources or not. If I owned an MTSO, I'd probably be outsourcing too because too many American MTs are prima donnas who think that just because they work from home, they should have freedom and not have to work a schedule.

Nobody is taking a job from me. There are PLENTY of MT jobs for every qualified American MT who wants one. Get over yourself.
glad you think it is a good company
I dont know  how many people would agree with you.
one would also hope that the company --sm
or manager, or coordinator, or whatever she calls herself, would have the guts enough to confront the person, tell her what her problem was personally, and either try to fix it or tell her she was no longer needed. You don't just not give someone work and hope they will go away. That is not ethical, IC work or not!
I hope every company that does this to their

STAY AWAY from this company! Do a search here. Lots of information, none of it good.

Awesome! I am glad to have found this company.

I hope you'll share the NAME OF THE COMPANY
I know I certainly wouldn't want to make the mistake of ever applying for a job there!
You deserve major kuddos! Hope that company (and their editors) appreciate you!
I know I would as an editor!!!
Love this company - want to retire with this company...sm
Been with them for nearly 2 years now and absolutely love them. I make my living with them - I don't do this for fun money. I think the dictators are pretty decent - you will always have your good and bad ones. You just have to get used to them. I love the account I am on - been with the same one since I started. They are a VERY fair company to work for.
I love this company
I've been with them since last June and went with them full-time as an MT in September. (Left a supervisory job with another company). Insurance is very good and much better (and cheaper) than my last job. I NEVER have had any problems with No Work except at the usual times like Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'm on a hospital account, so maybe that's why (as opposed to a clinic-type account).
Me too - I love it AND the company
nm
Yes, same company. I love MDI-FL
It is always very busy. I am happyw with the company

Hard to find a company these days that does not offshore at least some of their work.
I love this company.
I love this company. No pools, assigned accts.  Best support I have had experience with, easy, productive platform.  Paid training.  Not the highest payer but fast platorm and can use Expanders extensively.  Benefits for full time.
The company I love
I love MDI! Great company--wonderful liaison, superb tech support, kind and intelligent QA, no offshoring, respect and decency. They are highly selective in hiring, but if you can get on, you will be happy!
I can't afford to stay with VR. If they paid more, I'd stay.
The situation sucks. I really liked this company when I started there. I know they read these forums, and they are aware that we are unhappy over VR line rates. They stroke us with cute emails and say we're the best, but I can't feed my family on praise. They're turning into another MedQuist, and so I'll be leaving.
QT!!! QT!!! GREAT COMPANY!! LOVE IT!!!

I would love to know which company. You may email me if you wish. sm

I love the company - it's great.
Pay is on time, nice people.
Love it there, best company I have ever worked for, NM

I'm not bitter at all. And I love my company and my
job. Just made an objective commentary on how all the cheerleading for this company can strike some as cautionary. And your overreaction still confirms to me that something is fishy with these posts... That does not equate to bitterness, but rather, wisdom...And I never said I believe negative posters but not positives - you're reading a lot more into my simple statement.
I wouldn't say I LOVE my company
but I am satisfied at this point because I am not running out of work, the platform I am on is easy and counts fairly and the dictators are about what you find everywhere -- some hard to nearly impossible, some easy, mostly middle of the road to good.  My pay per line is VERY low for my experience (18 years) but if I stay focused I make a good hourly wage.  QA is very hands-off, but accessible if they are needed.  Did I mention that I don't run out of work?  I have to realize that times have changed and I may never make $30-50 an hour again.  My company is stable, but they off-shore.  One more thing -- I don't run out of work.  :)   Feel free to e-mail.
No not badmouthing company at all -love KS
Just something been going on for just a few days. I thought maybe somebody else out there could shed some light. I work nights so when I have work coming in that was dictated that morning not done and it skips around, thats kinda strange. I dunno maybe somebody assigning at the facility is what I suspect to get those short and horrible dictators out of the way. Really hurting my line count though. Will definitely talk to the lead if it doesn't stop.
