Try doing a google search for hospitals
in or near Atlanta-this should give you websites and contact names, then send an e-mail to them. For instance:

Type in Google search:

Hospitals in Atlanta, Georgia

live within a 5-mile radius of the OSI office
This is incorrect because I live near the office and have visited it. The upper management and directors, especially the admin and computer people, live near the office, but most of the managers, QAs, and MTs live out of state. Where are you getting your information?
Really sad where people will readily list places they hated but not name places that are great.
What a wonderful, sharing group of people MTs are. :-(
Yes, they still employ at least 6,000. And, why do SM
think they are more likely to crash than any other company? Got news for you. There is NO company immune to a big crash and burn!
It is the service's right not to employ PT
employees. My employer does not as they have to pay licensing fees for programs, and do not feel the fee is worth it for PT employees.
I heard they employ only Michiganders
Mostly full time, no benefits.
I AGREE 100% - why can't we ask our employees to us it, personally. Maybe I should ask my employ
there are people posting on here who do use it, personally, and are making huge line counts. Wonder if my employer would pay for it so I could use it. Companies could train us how to use it, right, is that what you mean? What a GREAT idea...then we would be in control (again), doing something not many people can do...

Please reply...
It is not the hospitals on a short TAT it is what MQ wants to make the hospitals very happy with

them. I would assume the accounts are on 12, 24 or 48 TAT but wouldnt they love having their work back no sooner than it is dictated.


We can't name other sites here for some reason, but ...

It's the big well-known site where just medical transcription jobs are listed.  If you do a search under Google for medical transcription jobs it should come up as the first site -- it did for me.


Good Luck!!


I like it! Most sites having to do with career changes - sm
seem to be geared to high-powered professional types, or computer geniuses. We're in such a NICHE, (or is that just a nice word for 'RUT'?), and our skills are specialized. Also, quite a few of us have been doing this for 20 or 30 years, and have specific problems with changing careers because we concentrated all our energies into MT. I, myself, lack the BA Degree so many places seem to want, even for lower-paying jobs. I only got as far as an AA Degree, and it's in Art. Totally useless. So, currently looking not too far down the road to my 60s, the thought of going back to school (which for me would mean all the way back to high school math, chemistry, etc.), just doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. Still, I have to eat..........
I think they have their sites set higher. See msg.
 

Our goal is to steadily increase offshore volume although to the extent that our


revenue grows rapidly it could certainly be a challenge to increase the


percentage of our total volume that we’re processing offshore


I found the above from the lengthy meeting notes from July 29 of this year.  It is at the top paragraph of page 6. Transcend wants to offshore.  There's no stopping them.


Put about 20 resumes out on different MT job sites
Waited for someone to contact me and they did. It will happen eventually. You need to be specific with what you want and don't want. It's an everyday chore until you get the offer that best suits you.
P.S. ''If we try employee status and decide it’s not for us, can we return to statutory employ
x
Both job sites are free postings I believeo
Frankly it is doubtful that MT will even seen the post. She was posting June 15.
Check the hospital web sites. Most have their job openings on line now. nm

Most company web sites have testimonials from LOTS of employees, not just one. sm

Kind of makes you think, doesn't it?  They just use that one tired rave review of yours.


As far as not having a problem with you being gone -- you're an IC!  You're SUPPOSED to be able to be gone when you need to be.   It is another place that doesn't seem to know the meaning of the idea of being an IC, although that is par for the course nowadays and I really cannot point them out as being the only one who does that.


It would seem best to let the CardioScribes thread die, but you had to bring it to the foreground again. 


Spheris employees are instructed to not post messages on sites like this.

Someone crashed 1 of USMLSU's hosting servers, but we have 3 backup sites :)

There are people that definitely feel threatened by this show of solidarity and the discord with reason. 


Over the weekend one of the hosting company servers used by the Initiative (donated server space, bandwidth and email services to us) was hit with a SYN flood. The hosting company was rendered helpless for a few hours, because the attackers used lots of different IP addresses, but we have 3 other backup sites because we anticipated something like this.


They are afraid because we are all agreeing on many things that are wrong with our chosen industry.  They are afraid because they have mistreated and cheated many of us, and if we are not at each other's throats they are no longer in control of our futures.


I have seen more intelligent, informed posts on this board in the past month than ever in my many years of visiting this site.  I have faith in our joined strength and do believe that we are making a difference. 


Why else would a server hosting company have only ONE server attacked this weekend - the server that housed one of our 4 sites. 


The owners of WebHostPad are livid and bound and determined to prosecute the attackers.  We have angered some powers that be to the point that they are willing to destroy a local business to stop us?


Nah.  I don't think so.


Been both places
I would say you won't better yourself.  Of the 2, I'd choose Spheris but I'm not still there either. 
Could you tell me the better places?
What companies are there, if you don't mind, in case I have to look. THANKS!
Most places like you to have in the mid-90s at least. Sorry. nm
s
Some places will let you do Fri., Sat., Sun. Never saw
s
There are other places that pay well.....
I'm SE and 9.5 cpl with 6.5 years of experience.
I have done it several places sm
I love TransTech, I MEAN I REALLY LOVE IT. I am IN love with MT again.
places to go
I know several of us have gone to Encompass, Keystrokes, Webmedx, to memtion a few.
places, places
sorry i got kids screaming at me right now. Thought I better correct it before one of the high and mighties say something.
no more than other places
and it would depend on the account.  As in most cases, I have found that after doing the account for a while and getting used to the dictators, there will only be a handful that really continue to be difficult each time you get them, when you sigh because you know it's going to lower your line count.
Maybe you should look other places for
companies rather than just ONE single board. There are MANY companies out there who don't post ads here, and many who don't post ads at all.
Actually, that is cheap. Most places much more. nm
nm
No, there a lot of places that have two divisions.
I just don't think you see it much in transcription companies. I love the small company feel of MDI.
This is going places it never should be, all over a comma. nm

Few places inside...sm

Dial up:  First Choice, Spheris, Precyse only if 37K or faster, and SoftScript. 


Satellite allowed:  Precyse, TRS, Opti-Script, WebMedX, Probity, and MQ.  nm


Here's a few places that have been mentioned..sm..
Accuscribe, DSG, Echo Sten-Tel, Execuscribe (just started using it recently), InTouchMI, MQ, and VanBelkum.
Don't know about Good places, but here are a

DeVenture, MedGarde (supposed to be not goodl), Meditech in Georgia, MTS in Mass., NEMT, Nicholas Transcription of New Hampshire (but no pay until the client pays them!), Opti-Script in Penn, and QED. I do not know if these places are currently paying weekly - other than DeVenture - only that they have in the past. Good luck!


Is everything getting counted the same way? Many places don't
s
places to work

Hey, just a shout out to all.  Of these companies who are the best to work for.  Transolutions, Webmedx, Axolotl or DSG.  Anything you have to say about line rate, benefits and equipment provided would be greatly appreciated. 


 


Thanks.


Do any of these places have enough work any more?
Seems like all of the big companies are low on work any more. What gives? How are we supposed to make a living?
Radiology places??

Where to go for great radiology transcription jobs??  I am seeing 6.5 cents to 9 cents a line...  i see .75 to $1.15  per job.  Things are not like it used to be when you see per job.  That is hard when you run out of work as I just left a place that ran out of work paying per report.   Any suggestions where to apply?


Two great places
Transcend and Diskriter.  Awesome places to work; no drama, no BS, no broken promises.
I've had two places tell me no
I'm not 100% sure, though. I was told I had to have 2003.
Do you work for these 2 places?
I feel ya...ESLs slow me way down once in awhile too!
Sorry, I have worked several places and
never heard of getting a negative line count for a report. No way would I be working there.
I've done VR at 2 different places now....
Both places, I could see old reports and while I'm seeing all these old reports with ridiculous errors and some just downright mind-boggling, I'm seeing the same crap on my screen for me to fix.

So, I'm talking to my supervisor one day about going back to just regular old transcription and she says to me I've got girls doing 3000 plus lines per day on VR, you'll get there eventually. So I said, With good quality? She said yes, of course....I started looking for work right then. Now I come to my 2nd place with VR and I'm getting the same crap. I see these godawful mistakes and no one seems to care. I've pointed them out and have been told If the hospital doesn't complain, don't worry about it.

If I sit here and make these reports good quality, format-wise as well as content, I CANNOT double my line count and I've been doing this for over 10 years. If I just run through them like apparently every one else is doing, I might make some money....at least until someone complains....then I have no job.

I've since gone back to just plain old transcription. My wrists burn, but I'm happy and making money again. I wish you all the best of luck at 4 cpl, which seems to be the going rate. Good luck!!!!
I need to know which places offer VR only for
the Johnsons and Smiths. The place where I work has any and all on including the Jofannsens, Abuggula, Sharnif and the like. That would be a really dream job to have only the very easiest English. Not happening at my place.
Oh boy! You really put all of us in our respective places. I am humbled by your
Give me a break...
Saw them listed as places to do internship (sm)

for MT training from Penn Valley. 


just mainly wanting to know if the location was north of the river.



 


I have found that large places
like hospitals, banks, insurance companies offer the best benefit packages to part-timers. In fact I once worked 10 hours a week at a bank just for the benefits package. PT MT at home with benefits, however, I don't think you will find. It's hard enough finding FT with benefits and the premium isn't $800 a month.
They are completely inflexible. There are places

Don't give them a second thought! You can easily do better for yourself. 


Do they have an ad up somewhere? Many places on old lists aren't around any more. nm

That is exactly what I was thinking. What is sad is that people want to know where these places are
so they can apply there too. If you'll notice, no one has ever came back on here and said thanks for giving me the information because they are not for real. If anyone could make that editing on ANY platform wouldnt we all be working there. So, thanks for the enlightening and given the people who really believed a reality check.
Some places have no-compete clauses with
