In Reply to: Allstate Transciption - Mary
I would highly recommend the AIM program to anybody! I have finished the AIM program and now I am hired with Allstate working on a great account! I feel like the money I paid to my school was a waste because I learned all from Deb and the AIM program. The 12 weeks flies by and by the end you will feel so much success! The QA is wonderful and they never hesitate to help you if you have any questions. Good luck to you Mary and I wish you the same success that I had through the AIM program!

Internet - kind of a DQS-like program. Great company. nm

For a great radiology program, you want Fusion RIS (formerly RIS Logic)
https://www.merge.com/estore/software.aspx
Now THAT'S a nice, quick, simple radiology program that you can use ShortHand with and WinScribe or whatever waveplayer. Ahhhhhhh!
D&L Services offering a great bonus program. Why not,
sdf
You made a good choice. The staff is great, program simple. Welcome! nm

Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM

Does the MQ DQS program contain the ShortCuts program, or do I need to buy it? nm
nm
DQS is not a "Medquist" program, it is a program used by MQ. (nm)

Great company, great boss, great account!!!nm

System great, pay good, everything great, but most managers from old Edix, problems, poor people ski
when you are out of work, you are out of luck. If you are good at brown-nosing, are tough enough to be without any self-esteem, and have maybe money coming into the household on the side in case you tick someone off, then you may succeed, for a little while.
Don't ever ask questions or have problems with anything. Don't ever have a problem. Don't think you will have any control over anything you do, either.
A few 'good' managers remained when I left, but the new ones were all from the old Edix, and were completely into numbers, cared nothing for individual MTs...if there is work, you BETTER be working. If there no work, you will hear nothing, no one will help you.
You are pathetic! I have a great life, loving family, work for a great company.
You might want to fix that.
You really don't have to shout (angry person), but yes you are wrong!!
That is my last word to you!
I will add that getting a great pay check every other Friday from Medware really puts a huge smile on my face.
Oracle is great. Bayscribe is wonderful great line counts.
The trainer at OTI will always answer any questions about the platform and if you have any problems they have already worked them out, so just ask. Good luck!
YOG - Lots of work, great office staff, great money. NM

Loved Alltype! Great management and great accounts.

It's a great company -- lots of work and great pay. sm
 Web site is www.mditrans.net. If you need anymore info, feel free to ask.
AXOLOTL - A GREAT COMPANY WITH GREAT INSURANCE
Axolotl has AWESOME, AFFORDABLE insurance. Family plan medical and dental costs a little over $300.00 MONTHLY. They also pay for family plan vision in its entirety. STD, LTD, 401K with match and flex spending account, great PTO and HOLIDAY pay. OH and paid downtime in the case you run out of work, which doesn't happen often!!!
Great pay, great benefits for 11+ years..sm
I've just started with this great company (eMTS). I have 11+ years of experience and I was started at .10 per line as a regular employee, not IC, with a huge sign-on bonus, full benefits, very nice people, and a good account. So far, this is the best experience I've had in my years as a transcriptionist. Unfortunately, I don't believe they're hiring more right now, but you could always check in with them, they're online at eMTS.com. The management seems to really care and they work with you.
Great company, great boss....
I use to work there. The dictators on my account were really good. They use Emdat/Inscribe. Pay on 1st and 15th by direct deposit.
That''s great and I've heard they pay great as well.
I just have heard a lot of adjectives for a few accounts - zinger, killer, impossible, etc., and I sure know I couldn't hack it there. But I'm sure they know what they are getting into when they sign up. 
You can't program everything into ....sm
an expander (like you said)...and frankly I've found that on most dictators I do minimal editing of reports because the quality of the drafts is pretty darned good. I usually receive at least a handful of reports a day that I maybe make 2 or 3 Keystrokes of corrections... yet I get paid for editing say 60 lines for the entire report, and move on to the next report. I bet none of you "naysayers" will be fussing about getting paid for not doing more than reading when you actually do editing with a good VR program!
What VR program do they use?
.
bad program?
I agree with low pay, top heavy management, but what is it about the program that makes it bad. just looking for some exact insight unless you mean because of the way it pays out?? hope this doesn't sound stupid.
thanks.
What is NTI's program?
.
program
Yes you can download in batches of 5 but to complete one and go to the next i believe you have to be online or you get some funky error message.
Which IM program are they using?
Most of them have security features that you can change so that you may save conversations.
Or I would agree with the previous poster and use the print screen feature. You don't have to actually print anything, but use it to copy the conversation and paste it into Word.
AIM program
I was in the AIM program. Basically you work as an intern and do real work from real doctors with a Turn Around Time that has to be met just like if you had a job. You just don't get paid. I liked Deb. She was a nice lady. I stayed in the AIM program for 6 months and got a job before I even finished it.
You don't say what program you were using or what
foot pedal. You may have a foot pedal that wasn't compatible with your program or you needed to download drivers.
SUM program
Maybe buy this program and work through it on your own?
What is the VR program they use? nm

prn program?
Haven't heard about this. When did this happen, only for some accounts or what, do you know? TIA!
Not from CNS, but another EMR program.
NextGen
I am not sure about the program
I don't time myself by the hour. I would usually do about 2000 lines during my shift. I only did about 1700 of speech lines and 225 of regular today. I get up and down a lot during my shift, so lose some time there, but I have always done that. What exactly do you mean by hot keys? TT pays slightly more than that, about 1/2 of my regular line rate. I get to the end of my shift and cannot believe my line count is so low.
what program do you use? nm

Program
I love Instant Text ... I have been using it for years...
What program do they use?

aim program
I went through the aim program recently. I waited 6 months to get a spot, but it was worth it. i was able to get feedback and improve my accuracy and my mentor was a really nice lady. The lady running it is changing accounts currently and when she is done is planning on getting more mentors. You can also look around for local companies who will mentor onsite in the meantime, and then if you don't have any luck, you are still on the list for then when a spot opens up. They do a really good job. :)
program is good
Pay is low for interns but promise good pay if your performance improves. Except for one or two QAs who are strict, they are good, and yes, they are totally upfront with their employees. It also helps that the feedback system is quick.
Meditech program at MDI-MD..sm
I remember transcribing into Meditech at MQ (before their new platform). I think that was DOS.
I will be working for MDI-MD and the program will be Meditech. Does anyone know if they have DOS or Windows? I saw a very positive comment by another MT about Meditech Windows. I hope that's where I'm heading!
Thanks!
The platform for this program is definitely
not the best. I could not make any money on it.
Their program stinks!
x
there is a short cut program in DQS which
I think is perfectly adequate. I guess others supplement it, but I don't see the need personally.
Medquist's New Program
DOES ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE NEW Medquist PROGRAM WE ALL RECEIVED A LETTER ABOUT IN THE MAIL, IE., HOW IT WILL EFFECT SE's?
MQ's New Rewards Program
One thing, now vision program they are adding for enhanced benefits. Another, after reading this board, new hires get more per line if they meet the 98% accuracy, otherwise say goodbye to your tier pay and bonuses. That is my educated guess.
Intern Program
Has anyone done the intern program with Meditec? What do you think of it?
What program is Meridian on?
I heard they use the old Medrite. Is that true?
Or you would know about their "pilot program"
Where they are sending, 50 reports a day at the most offshore to see what it's like, after all, that's the nature of the business. Didn't you get the memo?
Mentor Program??
You can also check out companies that offer mentor programs for new MTs. It can help you get on without the 2+ years experience.
For me I believe it is in the expansion program
It doesn't really matter which one, just USE IT! I don't use it just for reports or canned material, as you said, I do a lot of different accounts and docs. I do use it a TON for words that take time to type!
ie
ttpp as an ow hla wm inad.
26 Keystrokes should be 87:
The patient presents as an otherwise healthy-appearing white male in no acute distress.
See, it's in words, too, not just full sentences.
Hope that helps!
If the VR program has been trained and you are
little manual transcribing (and you are an experienced MT to start with), you could expect to be at about 2000 to 2500 lines a day in just a couple of months. At 3.75 cpl, that is $75 $93.75 a day.
If you do manual transcription on a good platform and can average 1500 lines a day at 9 cpl, you would earn $135 a day.
You would need to factor in if they pay for headers, footers, spaces and if everything you are getting is VR reports from the more difficult dictators with a lot of editing that would be needed AND how often they run out of work. Sten-Tel has a reputation of giving their MEs the harder dictators and running out of work often, although your mileage may vary.
Is the program they use easy? sm
i think i read somewhere where it was word based, was it easy to learn?? what average daily line count can you get? thanks, sorry for the questions.
Don't know about the mentoring program but...(sm)
I've been there 2 years. At first it was great. Lots of encouragement and help. Now it's so-so. I was hired for set hours and one thing they insist on it working your scheduled hours. They also insist on hitting the 12,000 lines per pay period. I don't work weekends unless the accounts are getting backlogged.
Pay is the same as other companies. They always pay on time and it's direct deposit if you want.
They use Extext, which I like, and there are a LOT of ESLs, also like other companies. Some are good, some are bad. It depends on your account.
I'm sure you will be getting a lot of answers to your message, some pro, some con, so it would have to be your decision.
