any good advice on which to choose?
Have worked for Medware and now at Precyse.(sm)
Medware turned out to be a really bad place to work, changes taking place there all the time and NOT good ones. I am very pleased with everything at Precyse. Great benefits. Great platform. Great people at Precyse, love working with them. 
MedQuist, Medware, Precyse, and probably all others working on it. nm

I need to have pay when I give birth to a baby...I CANNOT go without pay for that time!!!!

OSI/Deventure/Precyse/Spheris
Sorry--a bunch of very specific questions here that the companies don't seem to address, at least not right off the bat, and for which I couldn't find answers on the board here.
OSI: Do they offer incentives? Also, in an old post, an MT wrote here that whenever she had a high hourly line average, OSi would change the account. Is this still true? If you get hold of a really awful dictator, can you change?
Deventure: They're contemplating hiring me at level 1. Is there any way to eventually change to level 2, which makes more money--can you learn whatever you need to with them to do this? Do they give bonuses/raises? Do they contribute to 401K? Would I need to buy any equipment? What do they pay you when you're training? Is there a lot of work? Do you get any kind of flexibility in schedule? Do they offer shift differentials?
Spheris: Big question: Are they still as bad as the old posts on this board make 'em out to be? Do they contribute to 401K? Have they moved to voice recognition yet or do they plan to? Can you get as much work as you want (I'd like to work as much as possible), or do they still strictly require you to work only 8 hours a day? Are they still offering you one pay rate and then changing it on you? If you get an impossible dictator, can you change?
Any specific answers (not just ___ sucks!) would be very, very helpful. Thanks, y'all!
MedWare vs. Spheris
Has anyone worked for both Medware and Spheris? How do they compare? I appreciate any info you can share.
Which is better - Amphion, Medware or Spheris? nm

From what I've heard, I'd go with MedWare and would not consider Spheris.
That's just from the reading I've done. I think Spheris used to be Edix, and my understanding is that the software holds people back from producing well.
Spheris, SoftScript, and Precyse (if speed 37K or faster) use dial up

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.
She's giving work TO Medware, or is Medware giving work to her company? Medware has no work. nm

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.
Precyse
Am considering Precyse and would appreciate any feedback from gals/guys who currently work for this company. The good, the bad, and anything in between. Thanks.
Precyse
GO for it! I've owned my own company and worked for others. This is the classiest, best run, best paid, best benefits place I've ever found.
Precyse. sm
Is achieving a decent line count at Precyse easy to do? 
Precyse. sm
I have tested with them twice, they were slow responding. Usually when I test I get an immediate response and job offer, they are a little slow in getting back. Would like to hear from Precyse MTs - line counts reasonably achievable?
Precyse
Been with Precyse 3+ years. Their recruiting needs some big time attention. They are rather selective about who they hire and quality is an issue. In my experience, I have had no problem achieving my lines, including the bonus every pay period for lines over 12,000. Of course I have been doing this for over 20 years!
Precyse
I am not a newbie either. I am switching companies trying to find a fit. Precyse cheats people with 20 years or plus experience on line counts. You are told, you will get feedback from every report, Not so, if you are very capable. I have done a lot, a lot of lines. Worked all day the day before I quit with all my macros, stayed focused and had 600 lines. That has never happened to me before, even with learning curve. I do 12-500 a day, until I met them. I finally figured out, they don't pay for headers, so why should I do them? I don't think they pay for footers either. I am running back to my old job as soon as I can, at least they don't steel lines.
Precyse/MDI
I've worked for both these companies. The platform is Webcorrect (DocQScribe). I happen to love that platform and I managed 1200 to 1400 lines in 6-7 hours - yes, relatively easy to get. I did all consultations and ERs (didn't like being stuck in these work types and ended up, after about 4 months, not getting any ERs). If you didn't like the old Edix management, you probably won't like Precyse. For the most part, though, other than a couple of snippy QA and supervisors, they're not bad.
As far as MDI goes, I did voice recognition for them for a few weeks. The platform I worked on was Escription - easy. The problem is, VR doesn't pay well (about half) and it is very possible to spend lots of time on these reports. Spent about 70% of the time on VR and the rest typing. These folks seemed unorganized and no one was available. If you're a self-starter, you'll do fine.
In my opinion, Precyse is the better, more structured company with much better benefits. The pay is always on time, every other week. If you don't like DocQScribe (Webcorrect), though, don't go there.
Good luck to you. Wish you the best.
Hope this helps. Email me for any further questions about where I work now.
And I think Precyse too?
nm
Precyse does too

Precyse
Do they pay well? Annual raises? Do they pay on time? Do they put you on too many accounts? Is platform fast enough? Is their line counting system fair?
Any other comments appreciated.
Thanks
Precyse
As I said before, each MT has to find a company that fits their needs and schedule. I've been with Precyse going on 4 years (they are only 6 years old) and love it. Pay is good, I always have work (of course I work a split shift by choice and there is always work), and have been on the same 2 accounts the whole time. They do not hold your hand, you have to be independent, but I like that. I never have PC problems, paycheck problems, or problems achieving my lines. I love their PTO account and the fact that it adds up so quickly. I've been doing this a long time and by far this is best national I have worked for thus far.
That's my 2 cents!
Try Precyse, could get 9-10 cpl
Good benefits, too.
Precyse
anyone working for Precyse or know anything about them? thanks
Precyse
I just called the Precyse telephone number and used the prompts for employment opportunities, and medical transcription. The automated voice said, Just a minute, please... Then there was screeching, like a fax machine! ROFL!
Anybody know a better way to contact them? I took their on-line test last week, and I just wanted to follow up.
Precyse...
I have looked in the archives. Awhile back it seemed there were mostly good things to say about them. Now I see more negative posts. Is someone reading this who wouldn't mind it if I Email and ask some specifics? TIA.
Precyse uses it too.
Precyse MTs, (sm)
I will be training on Precyse soon. Just wondered if you guys had any pointers about getting started off on the right foot. Also, do any of you use your own PC or do you use theirs?
Precyse
I am thinking about looking into Precyse. Does anyone have any really bad experiences with them such as lack of work etc.?
I believe Precyse does too. -nm

Precyse
 all,
Does anyone know anything good or bad about Precyse, preferably from others that work for them or have worked for them? Interested in possibly checking them out and applying, but have not heard much about them. Likes, dislikes, benefits, requirements, etc., etc. Do they require you to have your own computer or rent from them? Do they have full-time, part-time or SE status? Basically anything you could offer in terms about the company would be great.
Precyse
Hmmm, I find it very interesting that someone would encourage you to stay with MQ and see if it gets better...amazing. I've worked there too on my rounds of nationals and it isn't pretty. I will continue to say that Precyse is a great company to work for, been there 4+ years and have no desire to look anywhere else. In truth, I cannot give you any input regarding the QA positions (I've been offered one, but hate QA work, prefer transcribing---and I make more money that way). I can tell you from an MT standpoint (and having done QA at other companies), they are consistent and constructive with the quarterly reviews and YES, they actually do the quarterly reviews, not just claim to do the reviews like others I have worked for in the past. That's my 2-cents.
Precyse
To anyone who has applied, how long did it take Precyse to get back with you after you completed the test at mttest.com? Thanks so much.
Precyse
Anyone have anything to say about Precyse? Good or bad?
Precyse
I left MQ, went to Precyse, now back at MQ. Precyse is wonderful when recruiting, then ditch you without answering emails, phone calls, etc. Because I tested high score they gave me their absolute worst accounts (verified by QA who was frustrated when I quit shortly after starting .... I was one of many).
Precyse does.

Precyse
 Just got a job with Precyse and it sounds like an awesome company; people are so nice, not like MQ. They said we will work as a team, wow, never had that at MQ. I am so happy. Rad Transcriptionist for 23 years and finally going to be appreciated. Benefits and sign on bonus. Free equipment and reimbursement for internet connection every three months 60.00. I cannot wait to get started. 
precyse
I also start Precyse Tuesday. I'm really excited. My pay is actually better than it was with MQ with the new rewards plan. I have been in contact with a Precyse employee and she has nothing but good things to say about them. I don't think any company is perfect. I'm just glad to be getting away from MQ and moving on to something better. Good luck to ya!
Thanks Precyse MT
 I need some encouragement, after 13 years with the company from hell.
