i-chart
If i-chart is sometimes 12 hours behind, how can you (we) check line count to be sure the daily production is being made? How would you check to see how many lines per hour you are typing? I'm really confused....
some companies chart 400-500 a PP for fam.
236 for ALL THREE is DIRT cheap
If you like doing chart notes at 7 cpl! (nm)

Fast Chart..sm
I am going to test with them. Does anyone have any feedback about Fast Chart? Can one advance up the pay levels quickly, or are you stuck at the horrendously low starting rates? The information they have sent is pretty confusing.

Can anyone tell me how long it takes, on the average, to start making 9cpl with Fast Chart? I just received their pay scale chart and it seems like one has to do an anwful lot of typing just to get up to 9 cpl. Is their platform user-friendly? Thanks for any info you can give me.
fast chart
They start you off at 6 cpl at Level 1 and move you up a level according to your cumulative lines from Day 1 and accurately typing all reports. From the best I can tell their top pay is 9 cpl on all shifts, which is Level 8.
Fast Chart
Anyone working for them currently? Are they a good company? Are QA staff personable and friendly? Do they pay well? TIA.
Fast Chart
I'm sorry if this has been posted before. I couldn't find info. Any info on whether Fast Chart is any good? I submitted a resume but want to know, if I hear from them, if I should take the time to test. Transform too. Anybody heard of them?

I started 2 weeks ago with Fast Chart and have given my 2-weeks notice. My computer does not like the software and have had problems since starting with different problems daily getting logged on and with the software not saving autotext. Sometimes have ran out of work in the past 2 weeks. Made a whopping 240 bucks the last pay period so I said see ya. Starting a new job tomorrow which is better pay. I'd think twice about this company.
fast chart
thanks for the reply. I have been looking for over a month and really am not sure which way to go. I am currently employed but am searching for better pay and flexibility and the hopes of steady work. Too much to ask for??
Fast Chart
I worked there 2-1/2 weeks and got paid squat, which is why I quit and work for another company now which I love so far. Worked on 4 accounts and couldn't make a thing.
i-chart platform
I am about to become an ex-MQ employee. Would you be interested in sharing where you are starting your new job? I have lost so many lines on DocQscribe, I am about to go broke.
Thank you.
Fast Chart
Worked there for 3 weeks and quit. Low pay for one thing and software was horrible to type in for another.
Fast Chart
Thanks so much. Thank goodness for this board.
Chart in time
Do they have a website, phone, contact information.
Thanks

Any current info on Fast Chart?
Fast Chart
I asked about any info on Fast Chart. I do not know why my message was deleted.
Fast Chart
Does anyone have any experience with this company? Regarding pay, how long does it take to move through their levels and does anyone know of anyone at a level 8? Thanks!
Fast Chart
In my experience, I worked there about 3 weeks. For one thing, pay was horrible. Secondly, I hated the platform, something was always going wrong with it, so ended up bringing home about 250 bucks per pay period. Needless to say, I have moved to greener pastures.
Fast Chart
I worked for Fast Chart many years ago. I started out at 5 cpl, went up to 7.5 in a short while. Yes, very low pay, especially when I used to much more pay. I had to take the first job that came along until something better came along. Yes, the pay was low. I worked 12 hours per day to bring home about $750 twice monthly. I feel that I won in the end because I walked away with more specialties under my belt, more knowledge, more experience, and took all of this with me when I bailed out. I just did what I had to do...
Fast Chart
Did I read somewhere on this board about Fast Chart's pay scale being $.09/line? Is this correct? Do they have a lot of ESLs? Thanks.
Chart Script
We just migrated off ChartScript - we were so glad to say goodbye ! Doesn't work well for remote MTs, lots of lost reports, slow like molasses ! constantly lost our text inserts/autocorrects - horrible system !
Fast Chart
I used to work for them a short time. They start you at .06 cemts per line, regardless of experience.
Fast Chart
Who cares, that is ONLY what YOU made, but not their norm for starting anyone!!
Do you have to go into I-chart to get counts or (sm)
does control I give you an accurate count.
Fast Chart
Any info on Fast Chart?
Fast Chart
Hi, Is Fast Chart a good company to work for? 
Fast Chart, inc.
I am looking into employment with Fast Chart. Did you find anything out?
Fast Chart
Hi. Sorry, no replies to my question.
Fast Chart
Does anybody have any info on Fast Chart? Thanks!
Here's a chart to figure that out-sm
This link has a chart that shows examples and tells how to figure that out.
On this chart, you'd be making about $22 more typing 55 cpl at 0.08 rather than 65 cpl.

Chart Matrix - Pee-U!
It's a slow, cumbersome, clunky DATABASE program with a text Editor feature. It's not a professional word processing platform. It does not come with any type of auto correct for text, so you must buy Shorthand, which is the only program of user-defined abbreviations Chart Matrix will work with. It will slow you down.
chart script
I work with ChartScript and I have hundreds of expanders. They really save a ton of time and the best part is you can print them out too and keep a record of what you have or don't have. I like it. JMO.
Fast Chart
Can anyone give me any information on Fast Chart, good or bad? Paydays, sound quality, do they have direct direct deposit and enough work?
fast chart
I have been with Fast Chart for 10 years and am satisfied. I have found them to have a great support team and the dictators good. Lately work has slumped a little, but I still get my lines. I am considered full-time but can usually get my line count in 20-25 hours per week and make $125 or more per day. No complaints.
fast chart
I have been very satisfied with Fast Chart for over 10 years now - no complaints!
There are 2 platforms here. Ent and Chart sm
I know the Chartmatrix side has tons of rad work. I think this side has a different STM too.
Fast Chart
Anyone with any current info on this company? Do they still pay very low and if so, are you able to make money with them?
TIA
Fast-chart pay
Hi there. I just sent them my resume and they sent me a chart that breaks down their pay. Basically they start at 0.6 cpl, pitiful for transcription and 0.3 cpl for edit. The highest pay (0.9 cpl) is only achieved after working for them for 2 years and only typing/editing op-notes and discharge summaries...
I decided to pass...
Fast Chart
Has anyone been offered a job at Fast Chart. Is it just me or is the IC contract very rigid with no leeway at all for schedule and committment flexibility. How is the work, is it easy to get your committments?
Fast Chart - sm.
Fast Chart, the transcription division of Applied Medical Services, does not outsource. This is taken from their website:
A big trend with many providers of medical transcriptions is to outsource the documents to oversee companies instead of hiring local transcriptionists. In fact, the Association of Medical Transcriptionists (AAMT) estimates that 8% to 10% of the outsourced transcription is now being sent overseas. However, outsourcing these services overseas is risky - those who have done so have encountered numerous quality problems, suggesting that a large number of offshore transcriptionists have language barriers or do not have adequate training or transcription and medical education. These factors can compromise the safety and integrity of the documents being transcribed.
Here at Fast Chart - the transcription division of Applied Medical Services - we are committed to only hiring domestically-located Medical Transcriptionists that meet our rigorous standards and training.
Also, they do use VR.

I have just received a job offer from Fast Chart and would appreciate any information anyone could provide. I understand about the 7.50 fee, but the line requirement seems like it would be relatively easy to meet.
Is DocQScribe an easy platform to learn? I work on EditScript right now and really like it.
I'm feeling stressed about needing to make this decision to change companies, so would appreciate any help!
it was not Bayscribe. It was either Chart-Net sm
or Chart-Script, I can't remember. It was suppose to be Bayscribe but they decided to give me another account which was fine. There was no instruction manual, NADA! I asked for one and they said there wasn't one and I didn't need it. They answered absolutely no questions, were not available to answer questions and if you did get hold of them, they would tell you they didn't know. The person that I dealt with was KE!
I was very very surprised this happened because of all the good things said about Landmark.. I thought maybe it was just me and it was not going to be a good fit. After reading these other posts, apparently they have done this to other employees. Maybe they have just started it I don't know.
I see where one MT had to call or threaten to call the Labor Board and then they overnighted her check??????
Something very strange going on. Just because your experience is good, don't negate the experience of others. Bottom line is, I sure don't want others to go unpaid from this company.

Fast Chart vs DIT
I have a friend that works for Fast Chart. She says that the recruiter told her that the only account they are currently advertising/hiring for is actually not a new account, but one that they have had for quite a while and is an extremely difficult one. The managers at that facility do not allow for imperfection. Why Fast Chart is advertising it as a new account and a dream job is questionnable.
The good thing about Fast Chart, she says, is that they do allow you to make your own schedule and you can change it monthly. You establish your own line commitment. They charge a fee if you do not make your line commitment. The pay is low, but on time and likely no lower than DIT.
Fast Chart
I got the same thing after I posted the message. I have 20 years of experience..no way, no how. Thanks.
FAST CHART
I'm stunned. They used to pay for spaces. Have they suddenly stopped paying for spaces on all existing accounts? If this is true, I wonder if the current employees are aware of this. I mean, the pay was low enough when they included the spaces; 6.5 cpl without spaces should be illegal, IMHO!!.
Fast Chart and K&R
If anyone has experience with either of these 2 companies I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks so much.
Any info on Fast Chart, out of NC?
Please e-mail me: wabewawa61 ~at~ earthlink ~dot~ net
Thanks!
They use MedRemote and Chart Matrix. nm
