I'll be sure to pass that along to the sale guy.

Ever feel like no one in the transcription industry really knows to things work other than the MTs?

I think I'll pass.....
I'll pass on them then.
x  x
Guess I'll pass too. Lots of experience sm
with these types of reports but the pay is pretty shabby for a veteran MT.
Gosh..thanks for your honesty. I have not found ONE positive about them. I'll pass. You saved me
a lot of trouble it sounds like. 
Sale?
What sale?
i mean FOR sale
-
why do you think it's for sale, and what are you asking them,
nm
Hmm, WM has a lap top on sale right now
for only 400 bux. I just wonder if you can use a different keyboard and how cumbersome (or not) it would be to do that. I don't think I'd be able to type fast on a lap top keyboard
Rumor is they are up for sale
but I have not heard anything more about that.
If MQ were for sale it wouldn't ....sm
necessarily be a negative thing for the MQ employees regardless of who a new owner might be (same goes true for any company being sold regardless of the industry).
MTSO's for sale
Does anyone know of any MTSO's for sale?
companies for sale
What in the world are you talking about. I am not from MQ. I opporate a small company out of Michigan.
Keystrokes is for sale? sm
I was just heard from my boss that Keystrokes is for sale for $30 million. He was looking at them but thinks that Spheris will be the ones who will actually buy them.
I know that they are in the U.S.A. only. What will happen once Spheris buys them? Why Spheris and not MQ?

sell not sale
just before someone jumps on that one
look on the equipment board here also--always some for sale there--nm

aren't they for sale? (cut my messg off)

Heartland - Status of Sale
Heartland is such a horrible company, it has been announced that SPI has backed out of purchasing them for good!
Almost all in-house employees are gone, majority of my MT friends left! I don't think they will survive with all these employees gone.
Just remember.....everything/anything is for sale for the right price sm
No matter what, everything and anything has a price tag. Good luck to all KS MTs.
I mean the owner on the sale. The only winner here. nm

VR is example of great sale pitch, not way of
one angle the sales person is using.
Does anyone know of any large billing agencies that are for sale?
If you are aware of a large ($1million + annual revenue) medical billing/transcription agency/company that is for sale. Please reply here or email me.
I am sure she was legally bound not to say anything about the sale until it was complete. That is s
business by the person who owns the business and the person who is purchasing it. She built her business, paid people for the work they did (does not owe anyone more than that), sold it and moved on. Why is it so hard for anyone to understand and why make it personal?
Haven't heard a thing about a sale.
Not a thing.
Hired company, but sale did not take place, right ? n/m
n
and I have prime land in the everglades for sale.

is eMTS out of Coral Springs for sale?
I am thankful that lightbulbs were on sale last week. nm
nm
I received an email from someone about Keystrokes being for sale - it is lie. sm
Yes, the owners met with the CEO of Transcend and went to dinner but it was 2 years and it was NETWORKING. They had no intentions of selling to them and when they informed them of that, Transcend stopped coming around. I work in the office. Get your facts straight.
Watch out, this company is probably up for sale to Transcend.
Usual warning signs - lots of mls, low work.
I have a bridge to sale you? I guess its karma...

If you'll read through past posts you'll find lots of
recent info. Why do you need menitoring if you already work as an MT. Unless you do clinic work most companies will require you to work at least one weekend day, at least initially.
"Was" is the keyword here! Up until the sale, they've been GREAT! nm
.
If you'll read the archives you'll find out everything
you want to know, none of it good.
Keystrokes is not for sale at this time, and there are no plans for selling in the foreseeable futu
This is a rumor started by someone for absolutely no reason. There are a few companies out there who have approached Keystrokes about selling and have been turned down. A few have been very agressive and do not like to hear the word no.
The company has been growing steadily for the past 10 years and has agressive growth plans in place for the next 5 years.
If you have any questions, contact one of the owners or member of the management team directly. They will answer your questions.
This is just another example of someone trying to stir the pot.
Not every company is for sale, at any price. Although that may change in the future for the owners of Keystrokes, right now they enjoy growing the company and improving on what they have built. It will be several years before the idea of selling would be entertained.
Actually, I did pass it.
And if you read my entire post, I mentioned the need for continuing ed credits, which I would only need if I PASSED THE TEST.
At a certain point, either you know this job or you don't. So someone with TONS (20+ years) of experience does not necessarily do a better job than someone with 6 years' worth.
Pass
The software doesnt keep accurate track of your time or lines. I even kept a log, didnt matter. I accrued time off that I was not given or paid for when I left. You can check the archives for many of the same types of issues and stories.
Take a pass.
One of the lowest paying around for employee, not much better for IC. Not reliable for steady work either.
Oh, I can pass it, all right....
I just seem to always be missing a little pocket change to take it.
Oh, really now, I'll be honest. It's never been the highest priority to me because (a) my employer doesn't care, has never cared, and won't give me more money for having one, (b) When I have that much money at any one time, it usually goes to buy back to school clothes or an appliance breaks down and has to be replaced.
I personally know quite a few CMTs and admire them for their dedication to keeping it current. I have always thought it rather telling, though, that most of the AAMT members and CMTs of my acquaintance are childless.
The fact of the matter is, many MTs are mothers. And mothers usually put themselves last. Right or wrong, that's a fact.
I think I will pass on this one myself. nm

I am trying not to pass out as well, but (sm)
I believe she was right when she said this is across the board, no matter where you work. The health care crisis in this country is just that - a crisis. I will stay here and pay the increased premium as from talking to people who work in different occupations as well as MT, they are all complaining about increases.
LOL - Maybe you should pass his
a leg to stand on for ICs to collect unemployment. They'd be beating down his door.
This too will pass and you will have
your board back.
I'd Pass On Transolutions...
if I were you. I believe they base your pay rate per line on how well your score on the test you take when you go to their site. Whatever level you fall into based upon your test scores is what you will get paid. Say you got a low to average score on your test, you would probably fall into pay level I and get paid 5 or 6 cents a line or something like that, and $10 an hour for 1-2 months of training. They're basically just like every other company out there offering transcriptionists the oppportunity to work at home crappy pay, not the best dictators, and of course, if you run out of work, you never get paid for downtime. You are also REQUIRED to work two holidays and weekends.
I will pass that along to the Administrator. Thank you. (NM)
Goldbird
Pass on the job. I am thinking it is a co I used
to work for and they never paid on time even with that long wait and did not get it right either. No excuse for a wait like that except for mismanagement by the company. Pass on that job. You will have headaches you don't need.
How did MT pass QA in the first place?
nm
Sad Rad MT...I was going to pass along this same message to you...Lee said that
everyone would be called about any issues they e-mailed her about! Good Luck!
Seven cpl WITHOUT spaces?!! No way ... I'd pass, but that's just me. nm
Good luck 
I interviewed but took a pass
The pay was lower than I was willing to take at 0.775 with 8 years experience in heme/onc
If you think your office won't pass SM
muster, don't feel like cleaning, whatever, I'd just get a pic of an office off the web and send that.
Thanks wouldn't want to pass
