Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

Well, I've never actually had a company ask for a hearing test. I understand we need to be able to hear well but people who hear great cannot necessarily transcribe great.

That being said, I certainly hope that is not a thing we're going to start seeing in the future because that certainly does not prove you can do the work one way or the other.

However, I do know professionals in my family who when applying for a high paying position are now being asked to sign a release so the company can look at their medical records to see how their health is and no doubt if they are at risk for using the insurance too much. My husband has had this happen before as well.

Well, I guess time will tell.  Tracy sent out a very nice email and my first impression is that she is a very nice lady.  She emphatically stated that offshoring was NOT in the plan.  I will take her at her word.  I've never been one to jump up and panic without good reason.  Anyhow, I'm probably overdue to be put out to pasture anyway so I'm not overly concerned about it. I'm only still MT-ing because I've started my day that way so very long it's like second nature and I probably wouldn't be able to get a thing done all day if I didn't hit the keyboard for a little while every morning (sometimes even on my days off).  What a nut case, huh? LOL  Money isn't the object anymore and I'm thankful for that.  One couldn't ask for a better place to work than TT but then that's just my opinion.  They certainly know how to staff their accounts so the only reason their MTs couldn't make a living would be if they didn't work.  The work is there and the pay is honest.


Hmmmmm....don't know how that's possible...SM
but I'd sure like to be on her account that lets her type 300 lph to make that! I am not wasting any time during my shift and can't seem to average more than about 130 lph. Sure I have hours that are higher or lower but I'm talking how it evens out over time.

The poster saying she can't make line count is not a shock to me...it's very hard to meet at Amphion. I'm not sure why you are so surprised; like you said, you haven't worked there yourself to see what it is like.

To original poster, I'm sorry this happened, and I wish you luck with the next company when you find it.
hmmmmm
Got my answer, they are based in the California, Phillipines, and Manila... okay... not my cup of tea, I don't think....
Hmmmmm
Why are you special that you get to judge someone you do not even know? It is the state of the industry, not this poor woman who got laid off. On the other hand, I think you sound like a SUIT.
hmmmmm. was that before she got lazy?
xxxxxxxxxx
Hmmmmm, maybe that is because you aren't an Ochsner MT.
I also hate it because we lost our QA Specialist to a better company. Everyone is leaving OSi, maybe I should also follow.
hmmmmm...emailed several times and no response.....

Should that tell me something???


Address the same as Transend Services - HMMMMM ???
