Any and all information on CyMed and Spheris...sm
Would like any information available from people who work for or have been employed by Cymed and/or Spheris. Do they pay good? Benefits good or are they expensive with their premiums? Any info would greatly be appreciated. Long-time MT hoping to switch to a company that does not really deman set hours as long as production within the pay period is good and that offers decent benefits. Thanks.
Any current information on Spheris? sm
How is their workload? Plenty of work? Are their benefits, health insurance mainly, expensive? Is the health insurance good? Please, if you will, give me as much information as possible.
Thank you!
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 still feel like a team player of Spheris, as the shackle scars are still on my legs! Spheris was
Micromanaged to the microsecond, or ms! Horrible. And part of a team? Total opposite - part of a team as in prison.
Don't imply you're worried at all. Just stating fact that Spheris does NOT allow a Spheris MT
work concurrently for MQ - no exceptions. MQ, on the other hand, does not have the same feelings as Spheris. Just all I had to say so that MTs aren't misled into thinking they can do the same "legally". Even went to the ropes on this issue with Spheris, as I was professional as well, and wouldn't share info, etc. The point they raised was that MQ is their direct #1 competition, and if I was typing for MQ and doing great work, that was in direct conflict of interest with Spheris' best interests. Guess which one I obviously stuck with!!
Thank you, Spheris recruiter! Anybody wanna place a bet that there are lots of Spheris
HELP WANTED ads on the job board?? So funny!! Out of the blue, Spheris, we love you!! Lets all run and apply NOW!!
I also know Spheris would fire you if they knew you worked for MQ. That is a BIG NO with Spheris!

Spheris - any spheris employees out there care to s/m
comment on the new Cornerstone platform, good, bad? Will we all be going to SR on this? Thanks.
My experience with Spheris isn't bad at all. I have been with Spheris sm
6 months and already have 40 hours PTO. I was shocked. Spheris is a great company. After 90 days I did get my sign on bonus and didn't even have to ask. There is soooooooooooooooo much that Spheris offer I wasn't even aware of. I am so glad that I didn't listen to the negative posts on this board in regards to Spheris because I am a happy camper.
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

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!

I recently had a phone interview with this company, and was very happy with the interview. Currently I am waiting for a confirmation on the job offer. Anybody with some information, good or bad, I would be very happy to hear anything. At this point I feel like I am getting the run around, like they are too busy to get back to me.

Thank you all so much!
