DDT - Arizona?
Anyone hear of the company DDT out of Arizona? I could not find a website or anything about them in the archives. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks
DDT in Arizona
Anyone heard of DDT in Arizona? They are posting on mtjobs and trying to get more info on company. Thanks!
No, Arizona. nm

mayo in Arizona too
There are two Mayo clinics in the Phoenix, AZ area as well and I believe there is one in Florida too. Phoenix is a really large city these days. If you can stand the head of summer (4-6 months = it varies from year to year) the rest of the year the weather is wonderful!!!!
Would this be the Texas or the Arizona MedTrans? Thx. nm

Tammy Arizona - New at Webmedx
Tammy,
As a former trainer at Webmedx (I retired) I must tell you that you are incorrect about typing in a web page. You are typing in Word, even though it may not appear that way.
As far as SHORTHAND, what exactly are you doing when it doesn't work? There are reasons for SH not working and there are very simple fixes built into the SH program. I was the SH instructor so, yes, I do know that it is not the program but rather something the MT does.
I own my own SH program and still use it daily, not just for transcribing. Try setting your Pause (under Preferences) to 20 msec after every 1 character and see if the helps you. You might also check to see what Text Transfer Method you are using, if you are using Clipboard Paste try switching to “keystrokes” although a little slower “pulling in” it is smoother and works every time.
Also, do you have physician normals in your SH program? By putting normals in you can definitely increase your line production.
Do you have regular phrases and all your medications in your SH? If you put in medications, did you also put in the dosing (where possible)?
I would hate to see anyone leave Webmedx. I understand ESLs are difficult - but after a while and with the use of the SH program one can go right along.
Further, if you are having problems getting your line count to 150 LPH (which I voted against but lost - I like 130-140 LPH) have you asked either trainer for help? The trainers are great and they are there long after you have finished your initial training to assist you in any way they can.
I hope you decide to stay!
PS: IMHO three weeks is not a fair trial/assessment - give it about 3 months at minimum.

PHILIS KORTGARD OF ARIZONA DOES NOT PAY
Just wanted to update that the final pay due my friend was AGAIN issued in a FRAUDULENT check.
If anyone sees an ad with Philis Kortgard of Arizona, I strongly urge you to recall the experience of my friend. After spending a day trying to just communicate with PHILIS KORTGARD OF ARIZONA, my friend was told that the check is no good (uh duh she already knew that) and that it might be good next week. And that if my friend thinks she has it bad, PHILIS KORTGARD feels she has it worse. I wonder if the 2 young boys waiting on groceries to be purchased with this money will care if PHILIS KORTGARD is unhappy?
Don't even think of working for Atypical Transcription in Arizona
For your own protection do not even think of working for Atypical Transcription in Arizona. She does NOT pay. What a jerk.
Trans Tech has an Arizona account
It's twu! It's twu! Good doctors and good lines. Go for it.
Mayo Clinic Scottsdale Arizona
I have been thinking of moving to Arizona for a year or so and wanted to work as an MT at Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale. Are they outsourcing all their work now? I read some old messages on this board saying the Arizona clinic outsourced some work, but it didn't seem like it was much. I don't see the MT position open on their web page anymore and wonder if they have filled all positions or are completely outsourcing. Anyone know?
The Transcription House out of Arizona, anyone heard of???
I would like any information on this company. I am googling MT companies and am coming up with ones I haven't heard much about. Anyone work for them? Good, bad, ugly??
Can the person with MedTrans say if it's the Arizona or Texas company? Thx. nm

Anyone know anything about Global Information Systems? Any information would be appreciated. nm
MedScribe Information Systems, Inc - Information please?
Anyone with information on this company?
I worked for a temp agency for 3 years..LOVED it. Just worked. No counts, no hassels, GREAT pay..
No benefits at the time. I even learned pathology while temping (8 months on that assigment). I loved the variety, the ability to say I'm not available such and such time. I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I didn't need benefits.
A company is ONLY supposed to verify that someone worked there, what dates they worked, whether PT o
and last date worked. It opens everyone up to a lawsuit if more is given, so most companies are told by their attorneys and business advisors to verify only.
No one has a right to a reference, only verification of employment.
It worked! Latest suggestion from DJ's email worked. nm

If I worked a longer day, I just put my regular shift, 3p-11p, or whatever. If I worked sm
an extra day, then I was told to fudge the hours around on the other days so it all came out to 40. I didn't really mind -- have learned not to expect overtime in this profession -- and I was happy to be able to work whenever I needed to get the lines I needed. However, them telling me directly to fudge on my time sheet would seem to be a violation of the wage and hour laws. I suppose it doesn't matter now if they do not even have enough work to make the minimum line count necessary. Several of the companies I thought were golden seem to have gotten a bit tarnished lately … sad.
Glad it worked for you. I have worked for companies
that were more reliable and paid without the delay I had. Maybe you started before they started doing that but it makes no difference. I TOO am a single parent.
You are not trying to argue? Sounds like you not only are trying to argue but you are just waiting for anyone to post anything about the co on here so you can just get out there and respond, which seems to be the way I have always noticed it. It's like all the MTs or whoever that work there are just waiting to respond.
This board is about the good points and bad points about companies. I am telling my experience.
The people were nice people though, but my experience was not a good one and I will not say it was.
I can go a week after the end of payday and even 10days later but that's it. Kids would starve.
Best company I have ever worked for, and I have worked for a lot!
I can't believe some of the things these people say here, and have to wonder if it just the same person or two bashing. I have been at MDI for four years and I do not have a low workload and I get treated very, very well.
They one I am not sure of. I have always worked FT for them. I have worked both IC and employee
and I always did way over 12,000 a pay peroid. I am sure they are pretty comparative to other companies. You definitely could contact a recruiter by applying if they would answer all of your questions up front. Good luck.
Looking for information on QED. sm
I have never heard of them before. I read some old archives but am interested in hearing from any recent employees. I've heard the pay is low. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Information
Does anyone know anything about a company called Archivus?
SM for information.
An expander is a program in which you put in shortcuts to "expand" to longer words, sentences, and phrases. For example, typing "forex" produces "for example." They can be used for phrases like
tp for the patient
lt for left
rt for right
egdx for esophagogastroduodenoscopy
Shorthand and Instant Text are 2 of the most popular.

Does anyone have any information
TIA
Thank you for the information!
That is helpful.
Thanks for the information.
You were very kind to respond.
No, but if this were information
 that was really any of your business, you wouldn't have to ask.

Does anyone have any information
I have asked a few times and can find nothing when I do a search on them? TIA
A little information for you
I am not the original person who answered your post, but I also work for Amphion. When you are first hired with them, they will basically ask you what hours you plan on working. They are hours of your choosing, but they just ask that you try to stay working that schedule, so that they can provide adequate coverage on their accounts. They are, however, very accommodating should you need to change your schedule. They hire both part-time and full-time employee status. Very nice folks to work for! Good luck to you. 
Sorry, don't have information but would like to know
Thanks.
I like to come here for information..., sm
but by the time you wade through all the hateful remarks, it just makes you sick! I am very glad for the time spent on getting rid of some of the junk around here. 
Information
Can you email me with more information? Where are you located? How many MTs work for you currently? Thanks!
I'd appreciate any information on any of these, too
--but I can say I did consider FastChart a few years ago; my decision was between them and my current employer, for whom I work as an employee and not as an IC, as I would have with FastChart.
What killed my consideration of FastChart was the poor line rate; I believe it was 0.065/line at the time, and that, coupled with IC status and filing my own taxes, etc., just didn't beat EDiX's offer of 0.07/line plus benefits.
I'm most curious about Oracle and Proscript and appreciate the PS feedback already provided. At this point, I'll take any advice anyone offers, though. I just don't think the future at my present company is looking so bright.
Thanks, all.
There is quite a bit of information in the
archives on Spheris. I worked there and have posted much about them (positive experience). I even posted a lengthy comparison between Spheris and MedQuist.
If you will do a search, you will find plenty of information.
Thanks for the information!

Information (SM)
If you are referring to the parent company of MedQuist, you need to take this discussion to the MQ board.
ALL discussions about MQ are to be on that particular board.
I am letting your post stand for now to see if you will clarify if there is a private MTSO called Phillips MT that you are inquiring about.

Thanks for the information. sm
Everything that I heard about them was good, until I took the job offer, of course!
My information to do with what I want. sm
I agree it is crass to ask someone what they make. I do not agree that someone has the right to tell my personal information cannot be shared with whomever I chose to share it with.
Thanks for the information. - sm
I guess this should have been titled autotext or word Expander question! They (Futurenet) told me they have a Word Expander program, but I'm guessing they meant the autotext feature in MS Word.
Here is the information you are looking for - sm

More information please! sm
Do you mind sharing some additional information such as FT/PT, minimum line requirements, set schedules/shifts, QA support, TAT? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Any other information.... sm
such as PT/FT, TAT, type of schedule, minimum lines, weekend requirement, pools or own accounts, etc. Thanks!
More information
3 p - 11p + $2/h
11p - 7 a + $3/h
This is in addition to your line rate.
Where do you get your information?
Please let me know where you heard this because I have worked for Precyse for quite awhile, continue to have the same accounts (probably because they have a lot of ESLs and nobody else wants them). I do know they have some accounts and MTs testing it out, but are quick to tell us that with the problems all the other companies are having, they are quite hesitant about how efficient and productive it would be.
More information please!

Help! Need information
Any information on Keystrokes? How often do they pay? Direct deposit? Good company? Any information good/bad is greatly appreciated!
