I only find a site on line that says they train for MT. Is there a job ad up
s
I finally went on line to their site and took the test...sm
Then I heard the next day. Didn't accept their offer as pay was too low and I was looking for a different platform. Good luck!

States right on dictaphone web site when you go for line count

that your company sets the line count.  Dictaphone does not!  and you have no idea what they set it at. 


it is a sad state of affairs when transcription companies feel they have to steal from the little they already pay transcriptionists by manipulating line counts.  I know it is done, and really makes you wonder how these people sleep at night.  I guess they do it because they can.  If ever an industry needs to be governed by somebody it is this industry with all the flagrant stealing going on with national companies and plain immorality.  There are honest companies out there, I know I finally found one, but most nationals steal, lie, manipulate, and are totally dishonest, I also know because I have worked for a number of them. 


Whether you apply on line or by written application, they have it covered

They have always had a disclaimer at the end of any paper Employment Application you fill out and sign, but now they also have them if you apply on line.  They cover it nicely by saying I authorize investigation.  That pretty much lets them do anything they want and without a written signature.

Hosp's. would HAVE to pay more if we could stem
by continuing to sound off to anyone in this country that will listen. Why should the US worker subsidize offshore companies by sitting and watching their futures in MT dry up?
No ESL's? Maybe a clinic, but never a hosp or MTSO.
In this business, it'd be rare to find an account/hospital/MTSO without ESLs. It's part of reality. And keep in mind that whitebread docs can be worse that ESLs, by far. If you REALLY don't want to do ESLs, cruise the clinics in your vicinity, interview each doc to listen to them speak (ideally get them to do a test dictation for you), and make them an offer they can't refuse.

Seriously, though, you might look for companies that have midwest accounts/are located in the midwest, as the ESL ratio often is lower in the midwest states.

And if that doesn't work out you might look into legal transcription. Anyone notice that there seem to be fewer ESL lawyers than doctors? Lol....
If a lot of MTs, hosp. personnel, & docs are on all

Yes, it came from hosp. And doesnt matter what

What I meant was, is the ESL account unbearable. You don't have to tell me name of hosp. Thx

1 hosp starts 7/16, but the only people getting that acct....sm
Are the ones who lost their main hospital on 6/3. Good for them. Not great for the rest of us. :(
Does anyone know what services the Hosp. of Univ. of Pa. uses or who to contact there for info of MT
work.
ho ho ho but the hosp can play Russian Roulette w/going to court with

Those medical records became cheaper for hospitals how?  When they go to court with those expensive incorrect records and LOSE, wonder if they think it was cheaper?


 


If things don't work out,, the Diskriter FL Hosp position (sm)
Pays for downtime when work runs out and benefits are pretty decent.

Glad to hear things are better. Hang in there. I know how hard it can be... this profession just isn't what it used to be.

Good luck to you!!
You are still wrong to thank your company on an MT site, appropriate is your site.

hosp/clinics send work to U.S. company - outsource

My primary account is a hosp in new orleans so I'm wondering if we'll have more charts in a fe

A line is a line is a line. Doesn't matter if we are talking about radiology or acute care.

1600 is not a fair minimum requirement.  Sure you can achieve 1600, it shouldn't be the required minimum.


General Hosp...er General T-Tech
LOL
Means a line is a line is a line, even if it only has one word on the line
it is considered a line. 
"a line is a line" means gross line.
Gross line is a line, no matter how long or short.
Best Web Site...
Here's a totally silly, irrelevant, dopey question:  If you had never worked for any of the nationals, knew nothing about them whatsoever, and you had to pick one company based solely on their web site - who would you pick? Remember - you know nothing about any company whatsoever....
Here's a web site for you.

Except for the site.
know nothing.

HTH.
On this site, at least. :) SM
However, I felt it was worth posting as a representative of those Spheris employees who are satisfied.

I think many Spheris employees choose not to frequent/post on online forums, since there are guidelines regarding such discussions and it's easier just to avoid the issue.
I took a look at their web site - sm
I have not complete any formal training with a medical transcription school, but have 15 years experience in acute care. Their web site says they prefer transcriptionists who have completed formal training with an accredited school. I really want to apply, but since I haven't gone to school, I am hesitant. Anyone know if they will hire based on experience, without having completed training?
new web site
what discussion forum on what new web site?
MDI-FL...is there a web site....
to go to for infomation?  Thanks!
New Site?
I am thinking about making a website/blog specifically for Pro-American MTs, educating the general public what's truly at risk here. For starters, I am personally going to boycott all doctors who support/send their dictation other countries!!!

I want to make the general public aware and get their input on supporting such a boycott. Hopefully, they'll join in on the boycott too.

My money is going to the doctor who supports American jobs. I'll put my trust in those physicians, thank you. As far as the docs who send their dictation to MTSOs who send our jobs overseas, I hope they all move overseas and live happily ever after! You don't deserve to live in America!

Who's game? I may get a friend of mine to get this started? I can message/email personally to those who are interested will details.
I don't think they have a web site

But they had an ad on the big MT job board.  They're in Florida.


 


Where is their web site??
nm
They don't have a web site (sm)
Can I put you in touch with them?
According to their web site
The Transolutions APEX™ system is a secure, Web-enabled information management system offered exclusively by Transolutions. APEX™ reduces bottom-line costs by creating efficiencies of data management and storage at a centralized location. It also allows you to audit, access, view, edit and print transcribed documents. (Future phases of APEX™ will include electronic signature.) APEX™ incorporates:
OK, you got me to their site. I still saw nothing about it.
Could you direct me to which tab it states it on? Do they get money for all of us being paranoid and going to their website?
Web site?
Does this company have a web site? I could not find anything - was wondering how long they've been around. I lived in Peabody for years and never heard of them, not that that means anything!
Here's their web site

do you have a web site for Transcend????
Anyone know web site for
MDI-MD? I tried www.meditrans.net because I had seen that somewhere, but you can't get in without a password? I just wanted to read about them, their requirements, etc.  Thanks
It's also in the TOS on THIS site.

Their web site says

you get paid when we get paid by the client, pay 0.07 to 0.8 cpl, you must submit your own invoices, a 2-dollar charge for direct deposits...I quit reading after that. 


I don't work there but thatis what their web site says. 


http://www.nicholastranscription.com


why not just go to their web site?
x
and if you look on the site....
they are lobbying for required certification to do medical transcription, which would suck all of us into membership and partnership wtih them. Blech!!
From their site, they are an
Indian company. Do you really wan to work for an Indian company?
Go to the web site for
the AHDI, formerly AAMT, and they have definitions for three levels of MTs. Whether or not you agree with their organization and what they stand for, I think that theirs are the best definitions I've seen for job descriptions in this field.

I'm beginning to think it should be renamed MTWars. That's about all that ever goes on here anymore. I wouldn't even presume that I could get a decent answer to a question on here because it seems like every question starts some sort of ridiculous childish I'm right, you're wrong debate that goes on forever and ever . . . . It's a very ugly place to visit and as of today, it's off my list of favorites.
Thanks for the web site help. sm
I could never figure it out.  I applied and accepted an offer from KS!
