FC is a great company, very stable, lots of work. sm
The platform is simple and easy to use. You have a choice of transcribing in Word or WP5.1. My only negative is the sound quality. QA is very helpful and responsive. The people are very, very nice. I'm a bit of a perfectionist but still manage to rack up the lines pretty well. Pay is direct deposit, never late, many times early. On a scale of 1-10, I give this company a 9.
I recommend this company to seasoned MTs.
Keystrokes accounts are stable. The company treats every customer
like their only. No accounts have been lost. I have been there for 3-1/2 years. Same accounts plus double since I started.
Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM

Started small; great company. Rapid growth; not so great company
First year I was there was like heaven. Then the big growth spurt when they hired managers from another company (that I had run away from before because of their bad management) and let them kind of take over. Although I have no proof it was as though I got 'bumped' by these new people when they came in and I lost a good account, good manager, etc. My paycheck went down every month lower and lower, and it became harder and harder to make my minimal lines. Having any kind of advocate was nonexistent.
It depends on you and what kind of MT you are. Seems to me there are pretty much 2 types...
Sports like basketball where you have the pros who play with finesse, and then you have street players who think it is all about physical strength, period. More and more the physical strength is winning but the art of the game gets lost more and more...
As in this country where there are almost 2 sides now, those with intellect and thoughtfulness, and those who think the only way to be strong and be a leader is to beat up everyone who does not agree with you...and force your will on others.
Suffice it to say in my opinion WMX changed its philosophy of the way it treated employees and lost its heart when it grew, and it was literally almost overnight...
If you are a mass producer who has no care of what it takes to make money, if you are a 'street fighter' then it would probably be for you because you WILL have to fight for everything. Fight for the right account, fight for lines, fight to be treated fairly, etc. If you appreciate MTing for the art of MTing or have any kind of joy for the profession, my guess is you will not make it there very long...
This is happening all throughout the what used to be called profession. Seems to happening all through everything these days. Humanity and heart are being pushed down to the bottom...
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.
Great company, great boss, great account!!!nm

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.
It's a great company -- lots of work and great pay. sm

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 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.
Well, I know more than most and its not stable right now
:(
same here, at least it would be stable

Great company. I've been recommending this company for a long time.

Stable accounts
I have had my own business for 20+ years, small but my own with stable accounts from the day I started to my most recent being with me for almost 6 years. And, I do average above $1000 a week. So call me a liar but will match tax forms with you anyday. A lot of blood, sweat and tears has gone into this. Have 2 IC's that work for me part-time also.
Sorry you are so bitter and not found your place yet. Maybe you need to go out and try to get your own accounts.
Patti
Great little company..I worked there for a short time, IC, and pay always on time, great owner too!
I had good dictators, they use FTP, and I had a 12-hour window to return the work.
I'd have to disagree. It is not a stable platform by
If it was such a stable platform, why would technical support have to issue a guesstimate time line as to when the bugs would be worked out? Do people normally tell you that all will be fixed in months when there is nothing to fix?
Amphion, AccuPro or Transolutions? who is more stable?....
I don't want to waste my time testing for another crap company. I've been invited to test with all three. FutureNet has no work again this morning... I am SO done with them!! It should not be this hard to make $100/day in this business... even part time. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Ask them to try you on dial-up. It may be slow but if it is stable, it should work. sm
I do know that there are a few versions of Meditech, Chartscript and ExText that do not work with dial-up, but that still leaves a lot of options open! Good luck to you!
good for you; those kinds of companies will never be stable

Satellite is not a stable connection. Not in terms of HIPAA or sm
privacy but in terms of stability of speed and signal. Because the signal waxes and wanes, it can cause disruptions in connection. They might not seem evident when you are surfing the net or checking your bank balance, but a VPN connection such as one that is needed to do transcription for many hospitals needs a solid, stable connection. This connection can be fast or slow, as long as it does not go faster and then slower and then faster and then out and then in. A satellite signal does this constantly, by the second, and it causes disruption in the flow.
Need detailed info on DSG. It is stable work for a high producer? nm

Small company GREAT COMPANY
Axolotl is a WONDERFUL company with great benefits and competitive pay. We have maybe 100 MTs but are growing rapidly.
Great company!
I am very happy working for MDI. I have worked for them full time for a few years and part time before that. It is a great company to me and it's very easy for me to be able to call and talk to my TL or anyone above her if I have an problems/concerns/questions. There are lots of negative postings about them on this site, but have not had the bad experiences that they have had. My experience has been nothing but positive!!!!
Great company! (sm)
Good pay, good accounts, flexibility, best MTSO I have ever worked for in my 20 years as an MT. Just started with them a little over a month ago, & couldn't be happier! IC status only, though, but that's not a problem for me. Anything else I can tell you, just let me know 
They are a great company!
QA'd their work for a short while, but it was a second job and couldn't keep up working 2 jobs, so quit at JLG. They are a small, family-like company. The owner is an MT and has had offers to sell out to the big boys. but she loves her company and her employees and will not sell out. If you have a chance to work for them, you will not be sorry!
GREAT company...sm
They are friendly staff as stated, pay is good, but no benefits. But the pay, plenty of available work, and understanding of the company makes up for lack of benefits. I have had family illness over the past several months and they have been understanding. I feel bad for not being as dependable as I was when I first started, but they have really hung in there for me, so I am hoping to return the favor and help them out as much as I can. GREAT company. You cannot go wrong. I was thinking about looking for another job because they have no benefits, but they are just too good to risk that. So, never again, will I even think about that. You will not go wrong with them. I have been with them almost one year and they are as nice as they were from the beginning!
Great company.
I actually wanted to work for them, but I failed their online quiz. The question lines and answer boxes were so close together, I am sure I marked the wrong boxes just because it was impossible to differentiate one question from another. I have been an MT for 18 years. I knew the answers to every one of those questions, except for maybe 1 or 2 I was confused on. I don't know if it was timed or not. If it was timed, maybe that is why I failed. I did the test in between phone calls. Good luck with that!
Great company
I have worked with them since the company started and they have been GREAT!! I can give you names of LOTS of other MTs that agree.
you will see bad listings about them on here but think about the people that it is from--fired and mad people.
AccuStat pays on time and the people are just great to work with.....I can't express that enough!!!
great company
AccuStat is a great company in my opinion. They know your name and do not treat you like a number. Their pay is on time. Their managers are great and their accounts are good too. They are simply a great company to work for.
TRS seems to be a great company
I was slated to start with them. I accepted the position and then decided not to go with them because I could not afford to live with the salary offered. I spoke with Kathy after I decided not to take the position and she seems very honest,polite,and interested in the MTs. I did not have a bad experience, I just declined the position because I could not afford to live with the salary offered.
Great company
I have been with Meridian since October. I get wonderful feedback, great QA people. Pay is every 2 weeks and very fair. I am on MedRite and I love it here.
They are a great company sm
Super flexible scheduling, very nice people to work for, and I always have work. I use EX Text, and I personally do about 7000 lines every two weeks. I do not remember what the line requirement is. I do not know if they are hiring, but I am extremely happy here.
Great company.
They are very employee friendly. I know they are going through some management changes, but show me a company that does not. The owner is an excellent person to work for and takes care of his employees as long as you do what is asked. I would recommend it highly if you are offered a position!!
Great company
I have also been there several years. No complaints.
Good QA people. Steady work.
Pay on time. Good people to work with and to work for. I have been to their office and met all the QA people. Have met the owner personally.
great company
s
This a great company. What is the sm
use of saying run, run without giving any other info? It's a waste of a read. I worked for TN and they are wonderful people and always paid on time. The best place I have ever worked. I left due to health reasons.
Great company
I have been with them since March, they are a very fair and honest company to work for. I have had no problems with them. Absolutely no complaints here
DSG great company
DSG is a great company to work for--I have been there for a couple years...I believe it must be one of the best!
Great company....
and NO I am NOT management, or recruiting, or anything like that. I am an MT....been working for them for quite awhile. They are an excellent fit for me.
Lots of ESLs - yes. IC only - I think so; check with them about it though. Direct Deposit - always correct and always on time. Platform - it is their own and is Word based, so if you are familiar with Word you would be all set. Managers are very kind and helpful, answer questions almost immediately. QA - I have seen some posts on this board that were negative about their QA but I really dont have much contact with QA. I am familiar with my accounts, I do my work, and they leave me alone and put my paycheck in my checking account every other week. I also like that they do not beg and plead and hound us to death to get work done when it gets backed up. Yes, they let us know; yes, they send out emails; yes, they say they STILL need help; but there are no phone calls or IMs or *guilt*. It is just - if you can help, please do, we need you. Also, the workflow group are great. They seem to have a handle on their job and do it well.
But no company is perfect.....so......what would be the cons to FN? Running low on work. This seems to happen when they are ready to take on new accounts. It SEEMS that they hire in anticipation of new accounts and put new hires on present accounts until the new accounts start dictating. Work may be low at those times. BUT THIS IS ONLY MY IDEA...I dont know if that is what actually happens. I think the last time I was low on work was, maybe last Spring.
Also, the work seems to get slow the weekend before we turn in our invoices. I think MTs are trying to get in their lines for the pay period. I dont know for sure, of course, but that is MY GUESS. So what I do is make sure I get my lines in the Friday before the weekend before invoices so that is there is little work that Saturday and Sunday, I can take time off and not sweat it.
It works for me.
What a great company DRC was?
Do you really think they care about the lowly MT who is so offended? Doubt it. They're laughing all the way to the bank baby!
Great company
I do all ER reports for KS, and I average anywhere between 2000 and 2500 lines a day. I have only been there for about a month, but I have never run out of work, but they gave me a second ER account in case I ever do. Each account uses a different platform. Mine uses ExText, and I love it. Other accounts require a C-phone. As far as ESLs, every account is different, but there is only one on mine, and he is not even that bad. I would have no problem recommending this company to anyone. Good luck.
Great Company
Great company. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Flexible scheduling. Emdat is great!!!!! Pay on time all the time. Wonderful company.
great company
This is a great company to work for. Emdat is very easy and so convenient for working. Pay on time, direct deposit and boss is so nice and helpful. Work is good and plentiful most all days. good luck
Yes, MDI-MD is a great company, but
they do require you schedule some time on the weekends.
GREAT COMPANY
I work for Axolotl. I have been employed with them for 18 months. I don't know if they are hiring PT but they are definitely hiring FT.
They have EXCELLENT benefits, which includes health insurance, dental insurance and vision for around $300.00 month FAMILY. They have other GREAT benefits as well.
I think it's a great company,
and the new account I'm on is a winner. I've been there about 9 months.
Great company
I currently work there and love my job. They are great people to work for and the work is steady. Love my accounts. Pay is 0.8 cents a line.
Great Company. sm
Excellent IT staff, pay on time (direct deposit, if in Canada at least), great people, pay well. Canadian dollar worth more than US dollar now too. They may pay in US for US MTs though.
Yes, they are a great company!!!
I was with them for a couple weeks, but because of personal reasons I had to leave. I would love to be able to go back to the acct I was on :-(
They are great though. Good pay. Pay on time. Very nice owners. Easy program.
Great company...
I worked for Execuscribe in 2006. They are a locally-based MTSO here in Rochester, NY. The work is from Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester. You have to provide your own equipment to work for them, but other than that, they're really great. Being a smaller, local operation, they definitely have the time to respond to all your questions and provide support. I also worked in-house at their office, and the ladies really are quite nice. If you talk to Kathy S - she is the best! Very, very helpful. If you don't have a problem meeting their minimum line requirement (7000 lines per week, I think) , I'd definitely take the job! If you have any other questions, feel free to email me. Good luck!
Okay. Thanks. Seems like a great company.
