Did not like. Slow, cumbersome, no way to track line counts.

I haven't noticed that.
Frankly all my accounts have been so low that I haven't worked enough to notice a line count difference. Some of my accounts pay more for headers and footers, some don't pay at all. That sounds pretty shady to have a 27% reduction though.
I haven't noticed that.
I have found during interviews and such that most companies are willing to train the right person. Most of these platforms aren't that hard anyway. My current job I trained in 15 minutes. It took a week or two to learn ALL the in's and out's of the program but most of them seem to be similar, IMO.
I've been there for a while and haven't noticed
any changes at all. Did I miss something?
I haven't noticed any changes - except positive ones!
Hi there - We probably know each other, LOL. I have been with Transcend for over five years as well and I love it. I have only noticed positive changes - 401 K match, better communication, etc. E-mail me privately to let me know what changes you are talking about. Thanks and have a great day!
In case you haven't noticed,
offshore MTs are not welcome on this board. You steal our jobs, do crappy transcription, and make the industry look bad. We don't need or want your opinion on it.
Nope, haven't noticed a thing different or unusual. All's well here. nm

I haven't noticed any positive comments about any company
I did search the archives for OSi but didn't see anything recent.
I haven't noticed my computer acting funny
but I don't see why they need a report on what we have on our computer. Can't we just email them the information they need?
The pay cut thing is really bothering me. We already work too hard for what little we make.

I think counts show up only once the report has been received. Maybe doing it too soon? nm

I have a by-the-line rad report with them and have great counts! sm
I think that some accounts need to be by the line and some by the report. My backup account has short reports and by the report makes more sense by primary has a lot of rads who like their own voices so by the line is definitely better. I do a minimum of 1500 lines a day and I do not work over 8 hours as I have a disabled husband.
ExText Users: Can we look up line counts per report?

I just keep track of my main break. I don't keep track
of every interruption during my shift, that would be ridiculous. Im not gonna log every potty break, or phone call I have to take. I take 20-30 mins for my dinner break and that is what I log on my sheet.
track changes
Ok, I am correcting one of my girls documents. I am trying to use track changes. After i email this to her i want to get rid of the red marks, save, and send to my client. How do i get rid of these red marks?
NOW you are on the right track.
As to noncompete agreements? They are generally not enforceable IF they are too broad - and that's where an attorney comes in - for interpretation. IF YOU DON'T target THEIR clients, you are free to solicit business where you choose. So bypass the legal stuff and solicit your OWN, different clients...
You should ALSO contact your reps in congress - in a serious professional can I have a meeting type of way. Start with your local representative and be prepared to some serious homework. This is if you want to undertsanding why and how offshoring exists. Not as simple as some would have you believe.
Good luck!
off track totally....
And we have a Chevy with 300,000 miles been going strong for years plowing snow, blah, blah, blah....but all this is off track and is very unfortunate that it appears that many just simply do not care if the MT industry gets off-shored or not. But again, that is every individuals perogative to care or not to care and only someday when it affects you or someone you love personally will you ever truly understand!!
They also track your location
because you cannot post anonymously anymore. If you are using a proxy site you cannot post.
Big Brother MTSO.
no it doesn't track total for whole day
you have to do each document individually, but also keep in mind that it counts ALL lines, both typed and not typed. So be careful of that, if you aren't getting paid for blank lines.
You're exactly right! Oh, and please do not track me down at my personal
Big no-no. No-no.
Can companies track who you are on this board?
If you post a question/comment here about your company, if they wanted to know who you are, it is possible for them to track down who you are?
Thanks
Maybe 45 minutes, didn't keep track though sm
wasn't bad in my opinion. Pretty routine questions, the more you know off your head, the faster it goes and also if you keep the small talk down and get to business, doesn't take that long.
Well, now I'm curious. I have to track down who I worked for. I was

he's not looking for individual MTs
He's looking for a group that collectively can handle 5000/day.
Just did a mapquest and JLG is off Race Track Rd, not that is matters, but.... nt
lines are REALLY hard to get. no way to keep track, you have to ASK for them. it's a pain and not

I'd keep track of my time and figure out my hourly (sm)
and go from there. It'll either be an hourly rate you're happy with or not, kwim?
Yes, they can track you via the IP address that you are posting from. There is no such thing as pri

I DO keep track, and work long hours, but only
If I say I can't do the minimum line count in 8 hours, they say I'm too slow. But if I eliminate quality (by not proofing or not correcting grammar, and just typing verbatim) then I hear about that, too. They just say to work harder, work faster.
The MTSO's only care about their precious TAT and volume. What we have to do to ourselves in order to accomplish THEIR goals is of no importance to them.
The only way it ever will be is if someday they happen to get put under a microscope like other fraudulent US businesses have, lately.
What I wouldn't give to see the fat-cats at AHDI up in front of Congress trying to explain themselves some fine day. Could happen.
I have the individual coverage
and it's about $17 per week. United Healthcare, good plan. 250 deductable. I wish I could help you more but I know my regular doctor is on the plan so I am quite happy with the coverage. Hope that helps.
It's not so much the school, it's the individual.

CUT-THROAT INDIVIDUAL
I know who you are too, and what goes around comes around!
What a pathetic individual
I know what you're alluding to, even though you are too much of a coward to say it outright. If you can't say anything nice, or heaven forbid be supportive of this individual, then just keep it to yourself.
I, too, work for OSi and have for a few years. It's bad enough that you come on here and trash the company, now you're making personal attacks?! Go crawl back into your hole! 
Oh yes they can! It depends on the individual sm
QA person, of course. There certainly are some with very strange ideas on the interpretation of transcribed work (they don't take time to read the entire report to get the proper context) and some with vendettas. There are rotten apples everywhere.

Anyone hear of them? TIA!
sounds like Medquist keeping track of all times
my company does not do that
Keeps track of keystrokes and websites. Monitors you to make

Maybe they mean sign in and out for breaks etc to keep track of the 8 hours that you are to work. nm

Then we ALL need to start keeping track of our hours and anything that falls
below minimum wage - we need to start reporting these companies - don't care if this is caused only because of a decrease in starting VR or whatever causes it, no work, downtime if not paid, EVERYTHING included. I do believe that might get the MTSOs attention. They can't fire us all. Looks like India MT situation might be in trouble so the MTSOs should be very cautious that perhaps they can't rely on offshore forever in the future.
How can you know for a fact how much another individual is capable of doing? sm
I have tried to ignore your constant negativity, and I do feel sorry for you because you must have an unhappy life to want to always rain on everyone else, but enough is enough.
I average 300-350 lines an hour, at 11 cpl that equals over $33/hour. I have been an MT for over 30 years now, and have been blessed with a natural ability for speed and spelling, and, although there are new things to learn every day, I do not have to spend the majority of my work day looking up things.
I am not trying to be adversarial, and it makes no difference to me what you believe. I cannot believe I even got sucked this far into defending myself against some stranger. I wish you well, and hope you have a job that you enjoy as much as I do mine.
Merry Christmas :)
I have individual coverage and I pay less than $100 per month. They pay
the rest. I think it's definitely more for family coverage and I am not really sure what those rates are. I would just call and ask them. They're really nice and helpful.
I have BCBS individual policies for myself and
my last home-living son. When all my children were still at home, they had individual policies that they could take with them.
It was cheaper for me to do buy each of us an individual policy and know that I can keep us insured 100% of the time regardless of whether I changed jobs or not.
The plan I chose for ours has a $5000 major medical deductible but we have not ever had to use hospitalization and I can pay out $5000 one way or another. Office visits are covered 100%. That was my main concern as I wanted the routine items covered. I can handle facing the other big ticket items. I also wanted the lowest premium possible. It was a great bargain for us.
Reports for any individual company. nm
Is that individual or family and what is the company?
nm
This is why I prefer group over individual..
The bottom line is that.. When you have group insurance, you have a set rate, along with everyone else, regardless of your health insurance..and when it renews each year, it will only go up based on the group's rate, nothing to do with your personal health history and it is generally better benefits overall. Now, you have a private policy, can only afford one with a huge deductible (major medical)..well, during the year, you had an emergency surgery, heart attack..whatever.. Well, first off you have that preminum which is high, then you have all of that deductible to meet, upwards of $5000..THEN, your shocked at renewal time that they jacked up your preminum about $200 a month..and then your stuck..You can pay that outrageous amount or go without insurance because another private insurance wont touch you will all of your medical claims in the past 10 years. If they do touch you, it won't be cheap. So, your bad to square one.. crappy insurance at a bad price or signing up with a company for okay rates but better insurance.
I thought I was smart not keeping my group insurance through work because it was $400 a month (deductible $1000 etc..) so I went and got myself a family plan through private insurance for ONLY $196 a month.. Yes, then I had a $5000 deductible and come to find out my prescription benefits were only 50% instead of the $10-40 I had been paying. One of my son's prescription cost us $100 a month with that great insurance, and it would have only been $25 on my old group policy. Yes, I was saving a lot of money..NOT. I did check into my private insurance to get a policy similar to my group one.. and imagine that.. they wanted over $1000 a month for decent insurance. So, no thanks. I'll stay with group..It's worth it in the long run.
Are you looking for individual or family coverage?

A flyer for individual docs:
*If you're like most doctors, you never read dictated medical reports, anyway! Yours, or anyone else's! So why pay through the nose for something you'll never look at?*
*At AchooQuist, we understand the needs of busy docs like you.... men and women who laugh in the face of malpractice suits. That is why we've tailored our MT services to suit your busy, careless, greedy lifestyle.*
*When you joint the AchooQuist team, you'll pay what YOU want. (next-to-nothing). And you'll get exactly what you pay for.*
*We GUARANTEE it.*
Maybe you could solicit work from individual
and give them a good rate for paying CASH. Then no one could prove who you were working for.
Does DQS track your time for payroll, or do we fill in our own timesheet on-line? nm
