Does Transcend outsource out of country?
I was told when I was hired that their editing is for VR. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
Transcend does outsource work.
We just lost an account to them and were told they DO outsource work to India. This field is becoming a joke - outsourcing work, low pay, crappy platforms - I'm looking for another line of work.
MDI-FL/Transcend one and the same. Proud to outsource and not protect American MTs.
We have no job security.
I started with Transcend this
week. I really like their program. It is much easer than MQ DQS. Yes, every report I did was an ESL. The easier ones are probably going to VR. I am going to give them some time and see how it goes. I think eventually all MT companies will be like this because VR will get the clearer speakers. It pays to be proficient in ESLs. Of course, the accouts I do at MQ are over 50% ESLs and so far the work at Transcend has not come near the difficulty of some of the ones I do at MQ, but that may change, I am trying them out. I also think their voice quality is not as good, kind of like light static on the line. Their communication is much, much better than I have ever had at MQ. All I have to do is email or pick up the phone and they get right back to me. I never, ever get a response to MQ. If I can make as many LPH at Transcend as at MQ, I may quit MQ, not sure yet. So far I have found Transcend superior to MQ, but MQ is the only service I have worked for at home, so nothing to base it on.
I just started with Transcend and
love, love, love their new platform.
I started 2 weeks ago with Transcend
At first I was totally frustrated, and ready to quit. Now I am finally getting used to their program and it is flying. Plenty of work. Dictators are a mix depending on your account. They told me to cover the hours I committed to, but if I need to make extra, just do it. I think that is pretty flexible. I had to change my schedule the first week and no problem, just called and was told okay. Not so bad. I may end up liking this. Just depends on if I can get enough lines. We will see.
Do not outsource to India, outsource a small amount to Phillipines.

I was hired and started in 1 week. That is not a long set-up time. When I started with our local h
I needed to get a physical and go through orientation at the hospital which is only given two times per month. This is a 900-bed hospital, so it cannot be an unusual process. MQ took 2 weeks. KS took 1 week. SoftScript never got me started even after repeated calls and emails.
I have only been with KS for 9 months but would never put them in the same catagory as the others you mentioned. They are the best company I have worked for, and unfortunately, I have bounced around a little in the last 5 years.

JLG outsource???
Anyone know if JLG outsources? I asked their HR person and so far have received no response. Very suspicious about that.
JLG Outsource???
They have advertised on boards using their "Vianeta or Arrendale" software. If you search Google for Arrendale software, you will see that Arrendale and CBAY formed a partnership.... Check past posts on CBAY. What do you think?
Do they outsource?

MDI does not outsource but they do
overhire. Not a bad company overall, just have to fight for work a lot of the time.
Outsource
Do they outsource now? If not, they're planning it, big time. Companies need excuses to outsource, main one being they can't meet demand. Yeah, drop that line req down, that'll do it! Care to divulge company name?
they outsource and their pay is low nm
.
Outsource
MDI does not outsource but they were bought by Transcend who has been sending work to Florida. Just an FYI.
Not an outsource
No everyone there worked from home. They also used Transcend for overflows. It was a good place to work, but dayshift was years away.

I would Like to know any outsource Medical transcription work, Pls help me out ..
I am 99.9% sure they do not outsource. nm
Boy do they outsource
The offshores get preference for the work. Some of the managers are just awful, especially one in particular. I mean downright nasty and not even available for questions. Big shakeups lately.
if they did HAVE to outsource all, tho,
or even a ton, it would be a QA nightmare and clients would finally have to ask - WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH YOU PEOPLE?
sweeeet
They do more than outsource, as they have
an office in India.
No, they do not outsource.

They do outsource, don't let them kid you

no no NO! TT does NOT outsource sm
There is, however, an Indian company with a similar name that IS doing business in India.
I know it gets slammed on here for doing all kinds of things and I have never heard a word of truth about Transtech spoken here.
I did not say that they don't outsource
I said that not all of the team leads are in India.
Yes, Medware does outsource....sm
and they make no bones about it. However, they are not the only company to do so and more and more companies will likely be doing the same in the future. Like it or not, this is the future of medical transcription...to get the transcription done offshore and then have it edited by more qualified egocentric jerks like myself in the USA.
I think you have overstepped the boundaries of common decency in categorizing people who work for Medware or any other company who chooses to outsource their work. If you don't like it, you don't have to work there and don't have to associate with us, but it is a low blow to attack fellow members of your profession in such an unprofessional manner.
MDI does NOT outsource.. all work is done
on-shore. Transcend does outsource though (minimal).
Does Transolutions outsource?

They outsource heavily and
make no bones about it. They are located in suburban Nashville, TN and generally make no bones about their ties with Indian transcriptionists.
Most of the companies out there outsource now.
.
companies who outsource
Do you consider Canadians being outsourcing? With all the Americans out of work does it bother you that companies hire Canadians?
SPI information? Do they outsource?
Any info appreciated.
They don't outsource VA accts because they can't (sm)
Contracts with the fedgov won't allow it. Funny how the gov't won't allow VA files to be sent overseas, but they don't bother putting a stop to the rest of ours going huh?
They outsource to India and..
when the recruiter was asked, she said she didn't know that for sure even though it is posted on their website. When this was pointed out, I still couldn't get her to admit it. I turned them down because I prefer straight answers and dont' work for companies who outsource to India.
They outsource on VR accounts. NM

yes, they still OFFSHORE (not outsource), otherwise
nm
Wow, that's impressive. Do they outsource?
Now I am very intrigued! I did e-mail them and asked a few basic questions. Do you have any idea what their pay scale is? I have almost 7 years of experience as an MT.
Yes, they do outsource to Spheris
When ATSIS offered me a position back in early November, the account I was going to work on was with Spheris and the company was fixing to leave Spheris. It was a BIG mess. Maybe it's a blessing I did not end up working with this company. The recruiting manager is so darn RUDE. I would never want to communicate with her again. I would not trust her if she gave me the biggest offer to come back. That company is so darn SCREWED UP! I can see why the keep advertising over and over again constantly. They are probably screwing every MT like they did me! I sure hope every MT that is reading this post does not even consider appling with ATSI out of Clearwater, Florida because they will be sorry!!!
Have a great holiday. You deserve so much better out there than this CRAZY company.
Do you mean outsource as in offshore? (NM)

I know they outsource to India sm
Whatever is not done by a certain point at night the send to India so that it is ready to edit in the morning. I am surprised they are allowed to advertise for MTs on this site, but they DO outsource and I have this from the current recruiter. They pay their American MTs pretty well, but on the backs of the outsourced stuff from what I can tell.
For the record, I had an offer at the end of last year, didn't take it because it is outsourced. As long as we support this sort of thing it will continue. The minute we all refuse to work for a place like that, the sooner it all comes home.
u can't outsource nursing, so i'd go with that

It is possible to outsource to another service without

They DO NOT outsource/offshore.
The outsource ax has fallen!
I just got terminated from my in-hospital job. I had worked for these people for almost 20 years but I guess it was ineviable. They are going to outsource to some place I think in the Phillipines. I have done some part time work at home but now I'm looking for a full time at home with benefits. Gulp! Anybody have any suggestions? I was thinking about Diskriter or Sten-Tel. I am best at clinic work but I have done acute care for a couple of years. I hate ESL but they are a part of life, unfortunately. .
Does DeVenture outsource?
