they do not type in radnet, they have their own software. Radnet is used for macros, search patient's, etc.

I'm guessing that
with all the qualified people who frequent this site, you could start a business and grow into a decent sized companies (finding employees here!).
It would be a lot of work but might be well worth it!
Guessing
I think it depends on your Team Leader and the account, but I know of people that do work 4-hour shifts on 2nd or 3rd shift. I don't personally know of anyone at Focus who works a dayshift, though there could be some.
Guessing.
I am left to guessing, as there are no responses to my emails. I don't trust myself to phone them, as I would likely not be able to disguise my extreme anger. I had good evaluations from the Indian gentleman who used to be our account manager/Team Leader, so it isn't that I'm bad. However, I have decided to interpret the situation as a blessing, a motivator to get me to finally find a better position, and move on to a better MT life.
How about Florida - am guessing
we are part of the Tri-state
By "account" I'm guessing you only have one?
Why haven't you asked for a secondary or even a third? That would surely get you better results than simply posting your lack of work here.

Your dictators are clear, and there's *no guessing at all*??
So if you get one that isn't so clear, does that mean you *guess*?? 
I'm guessing English is your second language? I would say this is a
disservice to the MT as well as the companies you are going to service. Nothing worse than someone trying to sail the ship who hasn't ever been near the water.
Just guessing but it might be the woman who owns KS??

just guessing - you work for medquist...

I am guessing that the OP meant the queue
shut off means she can see there are jobs there, but when she clicks to get them, she gets nothing. Either that or suddenly the jobs go from a large amount to 0 all the way down. I have experienced both. Don't know if it is queue shut off or work manipulation by sups.
Saw that too...WOW. I am guessing it is subcontracted work
if all she can offer is 6 cpl.
Hey gourdpainter. Do you even work at TT? I am guessing no.
Why then are you constantly bashing them?
Approximately how big is Transcend now? I am guessing (sm)
MQ, Spheris and now Transcend, but as I said this is only a guess. Anyone else?
Not just MT, any computer skills, paperwork, etc. could be difficult. I am just guessing. (nm)

I'm guessing the reason these companies won't put their names is afraid they will get bashed.
I'm not sure why else they wouldn't be proud enough to put their company name. Pretty sad..
Not talking about lines. Talking about what you actually

What is Webmedx FL? Webmedx itself is located in Pittsburgh & Atlanta. nm

Webmedx ad apply at Webmedx or Transhealth ? (sm)
Apply to one address if you need equipment, another if you want to use your own? Does this mean they are still acting as 2 separate companies? Can anyone explain this?
Webmedx?? Why do you say Webmedx is foreign??
Nm.
You MUST be talking about OSI

see... this is what I'm talking about
This is good stuff. Thank you. Now about platforms. What seem to be the main complaints? What makes a platform 'good'? The one I work on has a screen where most of the demographcis are filled in, but you have to do a couple. Then you go into the report. I don't really mind it, but have nothing to compare it to.
I don't know who YOU are talking about
I don't really know who you are talking about nor do I care about what happened in Spring 2004. That was 18 months ago. But if that lady did have a company, I am sure she knew something about running a company. I was speaking about current stuff, and the ladies I worked for were absolutely THE most wonderful people ever. One even went to bat for me when the company shorted me some money. She stood up to the big dogs, and she won too!!!! What a wonderful, wonderful human being!!! She was a great TEAM leader, TEAM player, and made our team awesome!!! She made you want to work for her AND our team!! Never in all my years of working ANYWHERE (and I'm 45 years old...so lots of bosses!!!) have I ever found anyone that compares with her! I had (and have) many that need to take lessons from her, but none that compare or even come close! :)

Okay, we are obviously talking about
The Sten-Tel I am referring to is located at One Monarch Place in Springfield, MA. They do not use a payroll service. One of the owners does the payroll. Please state the address of the company you are referring to.

That's why it's the mess that it is. They were too afraid their fees would get frozen and they couldn't charge $600 to get a benign polyp analyzed under a scope(actual price, yes, from a bill). She mentioned the word healthcare, and the AMA, the largest world in the union (as the docs how much they pay for the medical insurance - NOTHING), squished her. We desperately NEED health care reform, but big bucks Bush (the one who says we need to give up our love for oil, even though oil is what is padding his pockets), and his buddies at the AMA (including corrupt Frist) won't allow it. So, it, along with everything else in this country, is going to continue to slide downhill. Bill was bad, yep - left good old Georgie boy a heap of money in the bank that he now has spent like a mad drunk.
What are you talking about???
In your 15 years experience, you should know that the proper word to use is 'accept', not except. I made the above post and have 8 years experience and am probably younger than you are. What part of my post indicates that I cannot 'accept' that this field is changing?
The newbies need to 'accept' the fact that this is a serious profession and that you must be dedicated and willing to work hard if you intend to remain in this field. YOU are the one who needs to GET OVER IT and crack open a dictionary while you're at it.
Now I KNOW you don't know what you are talking about (sm)
They don't have acct supervisors
Not sure if you are talking about same co. or not
Did you see an ad on MT Jobs? Spelling of name is different so I just want to be sure.
Just talking about it
I did not just talk about it. I cancelled my membership.
? I think you are talking to me, but I am SM
not the other person posting above. I don't link to an email because I want to be anonymous. I don't cheerlead for TH, it's just a job, better than some I have had but I have had better jobs in the past. I need the insurance, they pay on time and I make enough money to pay my bills. I don't think I can exactly call that cheerleading. I know of worse companies.
As far as the names on the list, I must have a different email roster than you because the #s you give correspond to people I know are American MTs, so I am confused about where you are seeing Indonesian names.
are you talking about use of IM ? nm

That's exactly what I'm talking about

You don't know what you are talking about
Medware has over 200 transcriptionists in India. They have more MTs in India than they do in the U.S. I gave Medware a chance. I worked with them for many years and in the end I got to watch my friends take a huge cut in pay when Medware decided all reviewers would make $8.00 an hour with incentives for ridiculously high production expectations that only about 2 people can make. I have watched the lead MTs lose their positions only to be asked to return to transcription. It is insulting the way Medware treats their people.
I am glad you like Medware. I used to like them too. But I am sure if you stick around long enough and start making enough money with them, you too will learn how they really are.
I don't know what you are talking about but
I can tell you that QA people do not get the bucks. They should, but they make about half what an MT makes. I do not transcribe, which is why I am in QA, so if you think we make big bucks, think again.
Companies have gone cheap on all of us. It is not MT against QA out there. QA has usually done their part in the MT world. If they tried to give me MT work they would be out of luck cuz the profession has about done me in and I would be on total disability from what it has caused.
The companies just have no respect for any of us. That's the bottom line. Don't blame your woes on QA. Blame it on the companies who have no other thinking other than the bottom line.
Anyone talking with MDI-MD? (SM)
I was called by the recruiter Saturday before last. She said someone would be calling me later to discuss the money aspect of it and I still have not heard from anyone. I emailed the original recruiter and she said the other lady had a death in the family. I waited until yesterday and emailed again and she said they have been really busy with a new account. Just wondering if anyone else is going through this. I have several interviews this week and would really like to put them in the running as what was intiallly told to me sounds very promising but I can only wait so long.....
I know exactly what you are talking about
I've had that happen so many times I can't even tell you. Worked 7-days a week for one with not a single day off in over 3 years. Gave notice due to health and not being able to work those hours anymore and got an email talking about how I didn't know what hard work was, etc. etc. Presently in a supervisory position, promoted only after 30 days to it, but told it didn't merit a raise. No overtime allowed but I'm supposed to be here making sure things run smoothly all the time. Head of QA on my account yet some of the new-hire editors are making more than I am. Even with all the supervisory duties, my line output for editing is #1 for the account. Does anybody care? Uh-uh. Spent all day on the job sites looking for something better. You'd think if you work your tail off and go above and beyond, it would matter, but it doesn't.
I am sure we are talking about the same
person. What I can say about her is that she stands up for what she believes in and she will not take being treated like junk particularly when she probably knew more than anyone at the company.
She has helped me find jobs and she also will go out of her way to help anyone in this field and I applauded when she quit on them. They did not deserve her anyhow.
Are you sure you know what you are talking about?
RAD MT's, I was just offered a position with them, my current company came back with a counteroffer and that is the only reason I did not go with Precyse. They sound like a very good company to work for.
What you talking about?
There was an e-mail today mentioning 7 different accounts that have extremely high volumes right now, and telling us that if our primary is low or out of work, to please come over and work on these. If the work on your account is being saved for the cherrypickers (which I honestly doubt), then go on over and work on one of those. Sounds like there's a ton of work out there if you want it.
What are you talking about?
Oh of COURSE they are. What I'm talking about is - sm
the even higher likelihood of mistakes, ID theft and other problems. Not mention that MT is basically done under close to sweatshop conditions in those countries. The poor MTs sit shoulder-to-shoulder all day long. In videos I've seen, I sure havent seen much in the way of reference books for them, either. Just a medical dictionary.
Oh - and actually, in the 'scruples' department, I really have a problem with countries that treat animals so terribly. Dogs and cats crammed into cages in open-air markets to be sold as food. And then often skin them alive before doing so. The so-called 'lucky' ones are clubbed to death first.
