They do outsource, and the company is NOT in India. The pay was always on time, as well.

company going to service company or India?
That is a hard thing to be cut back after you are used to that position. We have a couple of hospitals near here who have turned over all of their work to a Service Company, and one eliminated their department and turned over to India. I am afraid that the service company may be taking over our work also. Understand the others kept same pay, but lost most benefits. Anyone else have this happen to them?
AllHealth in GA - Good company, good equipment, any info about this company? (sm)
What type of work do they have? Any op reports? Appreciate any info.
good, let them do all the India work, and take all the hits for law suits...
I wish they would monopolize the India market and totally stick with that...
I also posted an article about this a few weeks back, even with pictures of the offices in India (lot nicer than here).
hope they put all their money into it and then when technology takes all our jobs, they will have nothing.
Medquist, hate it or not, has invested rather in the technology, thereby will be the leaders in that. if I worked there I would train and learn everything I could about working with that technology because that eventually, in my opinion, will drive even Indian MTs into unemployment.
Jobs being sent to India - good companies who don't outsource
I've been working for a company for a few years now. This company has started to remove several job types with greater turnaround times to India from our exiting accounts. There was not enough work over the holidays to get in all of my hours (I know work is normally slow then), and this trend is still continuing. We used to have a primary account and a secondary account as a back-up, but now I'm working on at least 5 or 6 accounts just to have enough work to complete my 8-hour shift.
At my company, QA is already in India. nm

Maybe we should tell that India-guy on the Company
he's about ready to bail on his current job, and certainly he wouldn't mind working for peanuts, since he surely already does!
;D
Any company that gets in bed with India should be

Transcend sends all the good work to India and leaves all the
garbage for the MTs in the States so they can keep the indian slime working. n donkeys are that do the work. Transcend is not a good place to work
I hated it there, they sent good accts to India (spheris global). nm

Company basically run out of India.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Yes that is the company MQ uses to send work to India.
:
cbay is spheris' India company...
claim they have over 4000 employees, but the MTs are in India...
that was reported in the advance health magazine.
No, Acusis is the company that started in India, and

I heard it was the company that bought their office in India. SPI?

US based company? Focus MTs US=925, India=3800.
Anirudh Baheti (an Indian) started the company and sold it to Nuance for 58 million dollars last year.
Just an FYI, Mr. Baheti also owns a company called Focus Care which is a service that recruitis Indian nurses, trains them to pass the US nursing boards, and then places them in US hospitals to work for a much lower wage than an American nurse earns.
Mr. Baheti also owns/owned a company called Focus Enterprises which deals in industrial tubes and pipes.
Tell me again how this is US based company?
And you're okay with working for a company that sends most of its work to India and
whose workforce is predominantly Indian? You're okay with the loss of American jobs, the falling recession we are in and the falling economy due in big part to the offshoring of American jobs? How okay will you be when you lose your job to an Indian and you have to apply for food stamps and unemployment?
Sell-out MTs like you are the reason good MTs cannot make a decent wage anymore, why good MTs cannot find a good job anymore, and why sweats shops in third world countries are thriving. How do you look at yourself in the mirror?
Focus Infomatics employs 800 American MTs and over 3000 Indian MTs. Tech support is in India. The company itself is still run by the same Indian man who started the company and sold out to Nuance. He made a bundle when he sold and he is still making a bundle running the company while he pays his own countrymen and woman peanuts! He's selling out his own people and you are selling out yours! On second thought, I guess you belong at Focus with your own kind!
Focus doesn't offshore to India, they are an Indian company
that offshores to the U.S. They have an office front in MA, I think.
Does anyone recommend a pretty good company that is good to work for, pay always on time and plenty
of work. I know that is asking a lot, but just curious?
Strictly IC, good company, hard accounts, good platform.
Good pay, always on time, no direct deposit though.
Is Transcend a good company with a good platform to work on. They are advertising.

Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!

TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
and flexible.
I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
TransTech is a good company. Debbie is the owner and a good one at that! nm

Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
I know JLG and they are a good company with a good group of people
I joined JLG about 9 month ago and I am thrilled with the experience that I have had. Although the company has been around for 20+ years, a group of good industry veterans who know how to operate fairly to both employees and clients have joined the company in the past year. I followed my manager from another giant company.
I have also worked on this account and it was plauged with problems from the start. The hospital required the account to be implemented in a matter of days, there were technical issues and the hospital management staff was new and the employees were mad because transcription had been outsourced. Personally, I won't miss this client but good luck to those that get it.
There is plenty of work at JLG and I have already been advised on my new assignments
DSG is a good company. The sound quality is good sm
but I don't understand why they are hiring. In the a.m. was have NO work. The afternoon and evenings do have more work though.
or maybe it's really a good company. Give me a break. If a company isn't talked about sm
on here, good or bad, it's probably too small to matter and does not offer benefits or anything at all.
Much good work going to India. Bad work left
xx
Good company, with good incentive SM
pay scale, decent health plan for full-timers, lower end for other benefits, well organized and dependable, good platform, good support. Very heavy ESL, medium-sized community medical centers, relatively high SR pay rate because it takes longer overall to clean it up. However--good producers who put in a good workday make quite good money here.
India, Michael. The MT world is going to India. Wonder why? nm
!
good company
I have been with them for awhile now. Every one is wonderful and helpful. I thought it was a 65 character per gross line. I am going to look back through my notes. If it is not, I still make a line count that I am happy with and still improving. Pay is always on time. Have a good day.
Good company
I am happy with them. Good accounts, very rare to run out of work, good managers, decent pay. I feel I have been fairly treated.
D*** good company, go for it
I was off of QA in 3 days, overtime yes, benefits, yes. GO FOR IT, EXCELLENT COMPANY.
GOOD IC COMPANY!
I have found Philbrick Transcription (based out of CT) to be a great company and they only offer IC status. They have a great starting line rate too!!! www.philbricktranscription.com
Anyone out there know about Cy Med. Is it a good company sm
How do they pay? Do they count lines fairly? Do they have a lot of bad ESL? They seem like a nicer, kinder MT company even offering time and a half until you get up to speed. Are they liars who say anything to get you to sign on? Can you expect them to be true to their word? Thanks any and all imput! What a crazy world. I am going wild trying to find a nice MT company.
Good Company
Wonderful group of people to work with. Been there since August, with a few problems at home, and they have been great. Very high standards for quality.
Good company. sm
One downside is occasionally running low on work, but I have plenty of backups, so I never run out. Platform gets quirky sometimes, but it doesn't stop me from producing and earning bonuses. Great people. Come on over.
I don't consider them a good company. I
took their test to work for them and I have more than 18 years of experience and they sent me a really insulting letter telling me to apply again in six months when I had more experience.
The audio was horrible and I had no way of slowing the dictation down.
I asked about what errors I had made and of course they told me to call. I was not going to do that if they could not even give me an estimate of my mistakes which they could easily have done. I was not about to play phone tag when I needed to work badly and had to wait till I was finished for the day to take the stupid test.
When you don't have the right equipment, just how are you supposed to take a test. I know that I got the answers to the written part right and I did the best I could with the dictation which I say was awful, but to insult me like that having 18 years of experience and sending that shoddy letter just infuriated me. I will never try again, I'll sure bet.
Glad the rest of you got past the front door and liked it. I thought I sure would have. Oh, well. I
MDI is a good company
I've been there about 5 months now, and I really like it. Pay is good and always on time - either employee or IC status. Good benefits but family insurance is expensive. Flexible as far as schedule and if you have doctor appointments or whatever. Never had any problem with that. Management has always been more than fair about any issues that I've had. The platform I work on is word based, but they have several different platforms - just depends where they need help and what you're needs are. Work was a little slow in the summer, but there's been plenty lately. I think every company has a slow time in the summer, or at least that's been my experience. I've been with other nationals, and so far, MDI is by far the best one I've worked for. Very happy there.
TT is a good company.
that are a piece of cake. Some, I hear, are not. Some of the ESLs in back posts are said to be very hard to understand.
Good company

No. Not a good company
A lot of MTs left this company for a lot of reasons, none good. I liked them at first, but that did not last.
They seem to be a good company (SM)
Not a lot of bad about them on the web. I interviewed and tested for them, but the recruiter was off line and had computer troubles, never recontacted me, so I went with another company. It would be a good choice, I think. They offer a complete surgical position. At one time, there was a $2,000 sign-on bonus paid out $500 every 3 months. Might be worth a try, still. Good luck.
GOOD COMPANY?????
In your own opinion, which company would be the BEST? I am in desparate need of getting a new job (MAJOR problems with current company). Don't want to get screwed around, pay decent and decent dictators. Thanks everyone!!!
RE: Good Company
Give Transcend a try.
GOOD COMPANY
I would suggest trying Transtech. They are very fair, pay on time, and offer good benefits. I have been with them for about 6 months and I am very happy.
Good/bad company - sm
Well, not paying on time, paying incorrectly, doing the bait and switch after hiring, terrible platform where you cannot use your Expander and/or no spell checker, wicked QA that picks on you for the least little thing that has no bearing on the record itself, overbearing management, constantly emailing with threats or inconsistent personalities, horrible sound quality and/or horrible dictators that NO ONE can do and make money at, awful tech support, and I'm sure the list goes on and on.....
Good company
I have been working for them a little over a year and have been very happy. The program is great; it's very easy to use. Sound quality has been very good. I was assigned one account when I first started that had very poor sound quality. I'm not sure if the problem was at their end or mine, but I asked if I could switch accounts and they had no problem with that.
Work is plentiful. The only time I have run out is around the holidays, but it doesn't last for long, and I think you'll find that's the case with most companies.
There have been many negative postings about them, but I honestly have been quite happy with them. I think some people are just chronic complainers! You're always going to find things you don't like no matter where you work. You just have to decide if the good outweighs the bad.
Really sad because at first they were a very good company
Really disappointed because I have always worked hard for them, had 99% or better QA reviews, and never missed my line counts until now.
good company
This is a good company. They have a lot of benefits and they pay very well.
What does that mean. Is it a good company or not.
