I agree....looking up information is essential to being an MT...
if you don't think so and want to make it someone else's responsibility then you will get negative attitudes from QA and MTs alike...
Does anyone have any information -good or bad- on...
Health Information Partners (HIP), Transcription Inc. or Transolutions? I was just doing some job searching and wondered if anyone has had any experience with any of these - like I said, good or bad - any information appreciated. 
I totally agree. Once you've posted your private information
on these boards, it's indexed and cached through Google and other sites. I've been stalked and harrassed twice through MT boards due to information I posted. One was a woman who totally disagreed with me and thought she needed to set me straight. She was right and I was wrong, and she was going to scream and cuss at me until I saw things her way. She Googled everything she could find about me and my business, then tracked me down through Anywho. The other was a man who called my business number at 2:00 a.m. wanting to talk about sex because he needed a sex-cretary to do his transcription in person. I know they got the information from the other MT board I used to go to because that was the only place I posted anything in the directory. The scary thing is that information can still be found all these years later because it's been cached. I had to change phone numbers, but those people still know my full name and address. That's why I don't use one nickname to post now.
I agree. And black list or no, intelligent people take information
.
Any information on TSSC--Bad or Good
Anyone know anything about this company??
Any information on USA Transcription, good or bad?
I searched the archives and did not find anything on this company.
OSI, any CURRENT information, good, bad??? TIA nm
.
TrueScribe? Any information? Good or bad. Thanks
Diskriter. NEW information on pay, work, QA, good, bad? NM
,

A Stat Transcription out of Florida?? Anyone with any information about them, good or bad?
I am thinking about applying and I cannot find anything on them.
YIKES!!! Thanks for the good information. I wont be applying there.
You just cannot make any money doing that, and face it, we're not in this to waste time in our day. We are trying to make a decent living which is getting harder and harder to do as it is.
ImedX. Any current information? Most of what I have heard is not good
but I would appreciate some more input.
STAY AWAY from this company! Do a search here. Lots of information, none of it good.
DeVenture versus Encompass. Plesae share if you have any information on these companies, good, bad,
or indifferent I need to make a change, but like everyone in this biz, you dont want to jump from the fire into the frying pan, so to speak. Thanks in advance for any information.
Agree. Good post.

Agree, they are a good company. sm
Pay is always on time, and the platforms are easy. I do have heavy ESLs in my accounts, and problems with running out of work. I think the accounts that have plenty of work are internet accounts.
Agree with comments above, good and bad, BUT SM
if you need insurance, FORGET IT. They recently implemented terrible insurance plan with high deductable (like $2000), no med coverage and $10,000 out of pocket expense for year.
Otherwise, it is just fine and I work on high level account with lots of ESL. Not a big problem. The company will work with terrible dictators to get them in line.
Just insurance stinks, as previously noted.
Agree. Good luck everyone!
Have expressed same thoughts above--this is getting convoluted, isn't it? Someone is going to have to do the US-only work. Hopefully us. Good luck, everyone!
Agree, they are a good company...
Yes, they are a great company to work for, so don't you think they deserve a call instead of this broadcasting? I have been with them for near 3 years. They have always been honest and I don't have to worry one bit that I will receive every dime of my pay.
Please call them, and have the decency to post back that the issue is resolved, at least.
Good points, I agree completely.

I agree with the posts below, I think it is a good company. SM
You do receive good training on the computer. The whole week of training is on the computer. You will start IMMEDIATELY on production with your account. That is my only complaint.
It was a good comprehensive test, but I agree their
nm
Totally agree. Not a good place to be right now. nm
nm
good idea...I agree...but didn't they have one once? nm
nm
agree - most people only have good things to say about MDI-MD

I totally agree. Good luck. nm

Sounds good to me. I agree 100%. Am 50 years
30 years and have a LOT to say and share. Its late, and I just happened to stop here for a second before bed while my other computer is defragging. I will follow up on this definitely within the next day or two, holidays or not. We have no time - less than no time, right? Can't wait to communicate with others who have some hope for us as a profession, a UNITED profession. Laurie
Agree!! Sounded too good to be true.
You do not get that kind of pay and only require 1 year experience!
I agree, it's a good general reference...
but be careful because everything you read on here is not totally correct... I would say not even in the 80% correct range. There are several companies talked about on this site that I have personally worked for and I have seen posts regarding them that were not correct at all -- like the platform used, pay, IC or employee, hours, etc. Also, many people will post bad comments here simply because they do not want new MTs coming on their account and taking their work  . So, yes, it is good for general reference but by no means totally honest. I think a good indication is when you see multiple posts stating the same issues about the same company.
I agree, good hearing IS important
but any health-related tests or questions must come AFTER an offer has been made. That is a key part of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Sometimes people physically cannot do certain jobs. I am a fat old lady. I don't think it would do me any good to walk over to UCLA and ask to try out for the varsity football team. But if I apply for an MT position, I do not expect my weight (I am fat) or my hearing (which is excellent) to be called into question. If a company wants to ask medical questions after hiring, they can ONLY be related to job performance. For example, I cannot be asked about back problems because as an MT I am not required to lift. If I applied for a truck driving position, it would be a valid question. Too many employers think that MTs don't know their rights (many don't) or are afraid to exercise them. I say, know your rights!
I agree. Keystrokes is a good company that sm
really does care about its employees. I have been there a long time (7 years) so I have seen them grow from small to large. There have been a lot of changes through the years, all positive, and if someone is not there now, they really do not know what is what. This year alone, we have added benefits including PTO that posts quarterly so that you do not have to wait a year, paid life insurance, dental insurance, additional life insurance to purchase and vision insurance. These are in addition to great health insurance that only went up $8 compared to my husband's company that went up $180 per month, Aflac, 401k and other benefits.
Yes, there are a lot of happy people working there but not every company is for every company.
Did they have a lot of problems back 7 years ago, 5 years ago, etc? They did but they worked through them and improved themselves and continue to do so.
I make great money, have steady work with very few exceptions and have great benefits. I was remembered with a card at Christmas, every birthday and with a gift each MT Week. I have received little thank you gifts here and there, get OT pay when asked to work it and do not get bothered as long as I do my job. Their standards are high but their pay is higher than most as well.
THAT is why there are so many happy people at Keystrokes. If the company didn't work out for you or you didn't work out for the company, it may be time to try them again as things are always changing for the better. If you did not work out for them, tell them that you can improve as well. I bet they'd listen and consider that.
Are they perfect? No, but they are as close to a perfect job as I need and want. As long as they keep improving and not making bad changes, I will stay until I retire in 8 years.
Dawn, I agree with you girl! All my good docs...
have also been kidnapped by the cherrypicker gang!
I agree with the poster. A simple, "Sorry, but it's just a good fit for me is all that is need
Everyone knows in this business that what is good for one person is not necessarily good for another. I've gotten more jobs based on other's recommendations only to be sooooo disappointed. To each his own and good luck. It's not like your the first person to quit a transcription job. It gets easier.....trust me LOL
Sure do agree with you WORKING women set a good example for kids and
SCHOOL and DAY CARE never replace a mother. A 2 person family with a stay at home mom does not make a great kid. I see messed up kids from stay at home families all the time, the wealthier they are sometimes, the more entitled and into alcohol and drugs the kids turn out. A child sees the mother providing for them and it makes them feel loved and secure. I do not want my daughter to be a stay at home mom. I was her to have a career and to always have confidence and to be able to support her family whether there is a husband or not. Not all husbands make enough to keep a family going. Some people are just very narrow minded.
Gotta agree -- YOG was the best! Great pay, good benefits. I quit sm
the moment I heard she had sold to MQ .. ugh.
Anyone know anything about Global Information Systems? Any information would be appreciated. nm
MedScribe Information Systems, Inc - Information please?
Anyone with information on this company?
The best co. ever! Good work, good people, good pay, good bennies.

I agree - no news is good news - sm
They are busy making sure you have work and want you to stay productive and busy. What is there to talk about? I personally like being left alone to do my work. As long as you get a check and the work keeps flowing, just do your thing! 
Yes there is! Good pay and good bonuses and good benefits.
Personally, DSG is a good fit for me. Pay is good and on time, sound quality depends on the account
and I like the platform. There is not much weekend work, although sometimes is available. I get along well with the management, no major complaints. There is pay incentive once you get over a certain number of lines in a pay period. I work as an IC, so can't help with benefits, insurance questions, etc.
I'm with them. Good work environment, easy accounts and I'm making really good money. nm
Fairly flexible but they do like a schedule. Insurance is good. Benefits are good in my opinion.
For the past week, work has been a little slower but I think that is common in every company..some days busy and other not.
Does anyone recommend a pretty good company that is good to work for, pay always on time and plenty
of work. I know that is asking a lot, but just curious?
Strictly IC, good company, hard accounts, good platform.
Good pay, always on time, no direct deposit though.
Is Transcend a good company with a good platform to work on. They are advertising.
:
Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!

TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
and flexible.
I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
TransTech is a good company. Debbie is the owner and a good one at that! nm

Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
