    I get my paycheck every week - that is enough for me! Happy MT week everybody! nm

    be sure your first paycheck is not an NSF check. Then you'll be fine

    hopefully all will go well for you.  Good luck.


    Yup. And it'll last all through next week, too. nm

    I lacked 5 hours for the last week. Think that'll be okay since
    work was low? I was going to make it up Sunday, but work still low and didn't want to take from the scheduled folks.
    She's at the conference this week, so she'll be late

    Had 4 offers within the 1st week. You'll be fine!:) nm

    Before someone hops on and say "why are you living paycheck to paycheck (inside)
    I had a great saving account this time last year when the company I had been with 2 years took me off my primary (never would tell me why, just said me being shut out was a glitch in the hospital's system) floated me around (not telling me anything of course) because they were getting a Meditech account and wanted me on it (you wouldn't put someone not very experienced on it would you?). It did not take a rocket scientist to realize as soon as I got the C-phone what had happened. Also 80% ESLs. I spent the whole year supplementing my salary until it was gone and have been trying to find a decent company since. That is why I am living paycheck to paycheck and I hate it. I have 20 years in this business and it is getting worse. Speech is great but not for the money. It just does not justify being paid half. You cannot retrain doctors and I don't think management telling them they need to be considerate to us is going to work. Telling them we are making half just does not move them. They still rumble through files, change sentences, have long pauses we are not paid for, speech leaves out words or sentences so tell me why we are paid half? Also, I usually seach a company before I come on and ask for opinions, it saves a lot of space. I know I sound grouchy but I am tired and scared.
    I'm just SO tired of living from paycheck to paycheck, and always (nm)
    .
    Personally, I live paycheck to paycheck because...
    I enjoy the constant worry about how to pay my bills and always getting to say I have some lines to make up so I won't be there. Social lives are overrated. I like getting up at 3:00 a.m. and jumping online so I can wrestle a few more jobs out of the system. I don't mind hearing that my supervisor is on vacation again because I know I will be able to use my PTO to make up for my downtime. It's kind of the same thing. I think Ramen noodles aren't just for college students, and one pair of jeans is all you really need for 3 years. I believe very strongly that all the recruiters and managers in the transcription business are taking wage cuts every year, too, so I don't want to feel like I am asking for more than my share.

    Living paycheck to paycheck...it's my right darn it.

    No, they do not charge rental for equipment.

    Anyone have any information regarding NetMed out of Cadillac, Michigan. Thanks.
    Netmed

    There have been good comments on the boards about them, and they have only IC positions.  That's all I know..


    NetMed?
    any info on them? Much appreciated.
    NetMed
    The pay is not that good, 7.5 cpl the last I knew. You have to train in Cadillac, Michigan if you live in Michigan. Don't know if they hire out of state, last I knew they didn't.
    Netmed
    Yes, IC  and pay is on time, or at least was.
    NetMed
    Yes, I have heard of them.
    Netmed
    I worked for NetMed for a short time. Unfortunately I was looking for part-time work and it just wasn't working out (too hard to keep up with two full time jobs). Everyone in the company seemed very nice and I never had a problem with getting paid. I wish things would have worked out, I really enjoyed working for NetMed the short time I did.
    NetMed
    Did anyone apply for the hem/onc opening for this company?  If so, have you heard back from them.  I immediately sent them my resume (have over 10 years MT exp.) but have heard nothing back.  Curious to know if anyone else has heard back.  Thanks for sharing.
    NetMed
    I applied. Not really looking for work, but I do Hem/Onc and was interested in seeing what the pay scale was. No reply as of yet.
    NetMed
    Here is the ad: NetMed Transcription has an immediate need for 2 MT's that have experience in Hematology/Oncology. All english speeking doctors. Sofware provided.

    I see no mention of 8 cents per line.
    NetMed
    Has anyone applied to this company that has an ad on Job Board?  It says to send them an email...no email addy is listed with posting so I went on Google and searched for the company, sent my resume directly to them (or so I thought) then a few minutes later I get an email that says it is an undeliverable address!  What's up with that?  How are we supposed to send a resume when that happens?  Is it a legitimate ad or not?????
    NetMed
    Actually, I did send my resume where it says Apply but I always like to send it via email as well because so many companies state they sometimes do not receive the ones sent via the site.
    NetMed
    The e-mail address on my previous post does not work.
    regarding NetMed
    I work for NetMed. Plenty of work. Flexible. You are assigned your own doctors. Work is due in 24 hours from the time it goes into your cue.
    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. 
    NetMed in MI? Very few comments here. sm
    I'm checking out a handful of companies. Don't need health insurance, but trying to find a good match with full time M-F work, preferably assigned accounts. 20+ years MT experience. Love the small company I presently work for, but not quite enough work for me (I have really high line counts some days, but other days are terrible with shortage of work) Unfortunately, the docs from the teaching hospitals have a very inconsistent dictation load, and my income is being affected by this, thus I am pursuing a different company. Thanks for any input.

    I run NetMed and I am just trying to find out what the opinion out there is our the company.  We have never missed paying an invoice to an MT and all the MT's are US based.  Please let me know if you have heard anything positive or negative.


    Thanks


    I worked at NetMed for a while too. sm
    I worked there for maybe 2 months but it just did not work out. The people there were very nice and I never had a problem with being paid. If I had computer problems, there was always somebody who would call back right away. They also have a mentoring program too. But I thought they used Vianetta or something like that. Either way, I enjoyed working for them. I would recommend them to anybody.
    any info on NetMed?
    Can't find much about it.  Thanks!

    I tested for the company called Net Med Transcription and was just wondering if anyone out there works for them and if they like, dislike them?
    Is anyone familiar with NetMed?
    I am trying to find out if anyone knows anything about NetMed.  Are they US based?  Good or bad experience, etc.  Thanks

    NetMed must have changed a lot in 5 years. sm
    I worked for them for 3-4 months. We were not a good fit for each other. I was having a hard time meeting QA. That said, I thought they were good to work for. They bent over backwards to help me get with the program. I never had any trouble with getting help for any problems and the tech people were great at getting back to you with answers. My mentor gal was great too.

    But that was just my experience.

    The minimum is 5500 per week, NOT 6600 per week. I think you made a typo. :)
