In Reply to: I am not upper mgmt. I am just a Transhealth employee. They have gotten - I recommend Transhealth wholeheartedly
You cant always believe what you hear. If they are disgruntled, they will say anything about a place to try to get back.
Some people just hold grudges.

Gripe when you have work, gripe when you don't...
What does this have to do with the subject post to begin with?
You were a newbie once too, and I'm sure there were people here ranting on about your quality. Get over yourself!
How many employees does TransHealth have? Can
nm
I believe the new gripe is not that work is being
wherever. Its that we, as American MTs, do NOT want to work FOR an Indian owned and operated company. I wouldn't want to work for a French company, other than Chanel, of course. I wouldn't want to work for a German company. Especially, and this is the main problem, when the foreign company has a mission statement to eliminate its US employees. I would work for Toyota in the US. I would work for Volkswagen in the US, as long as their mission statements in their home country did not include statements that they plan on eliminating US workers. There is a big difference, and I think that is what many of you are missing. You think so much upset at MQ and the like is over the offshoring itself. The new UPSET is that our employees will now be a foreign entity, completely unknown to us, and hostile. I do not want to work for a HOSTILE employer. Heck, we have enough trouble with working for companies like MQ without their ownership declaring war!
You will love TransHealth. I have been there about 9 months.
Love it
?? I don't see how you can say that... I love MDI and they treat their employees well.
I have never had a bad experience with them and I certainly would not call them nasty.
Thank you DTS. I love my bag! Happy MT Week to fellow DTS employees.
Ah, it's the "eye roller" again. Get back to work. This is why you keep getting fired.
Guess what - you DO sound like a disgruntled employee! Do you think your attitude has anything to do with your bad luck on the job market?
I currently work for TransHealth. sm
Pay is accurate and always on time. Benefits are very good (for full-timers). Most of their accounts are acute care I believe, so you need to be adept at the basic 4, and able to transcribe ESLs (but that's the case anywhere nowadays). I've always found the office staff and QA to be friendly and helpful. I'm happy, but I realize that not every company is a perfect fit for every MT. Good luck in whatever you decide.
Do you work for TransHealth. You like?
Does TransHealth require you to work one day sm
of every weekend (such as Tues-Sat or Sun-Thurs) or do they have M-F with rotating weekends? TIA 
what is your gripe?
it's fine to share your negative experience however, I have not read anything of value in this link. What is your gripe? That the owner is anal? Well, frankly working this field I would expect most owners to be anal, afterall we are completing very sensitive information. So this goes back to my original question... what is your gripe?
I don't know what her gripe is with TT.
There is work now TT low work. I don't think they are specifically sending it to me, I am no one special.
you can gripe about e/m's
but you make a choice. Ignore the e/m's re the acct needs and pretty soon they HAVE to hire more on the acct to keep client happy (and/or client decides to ship the work overseas), OR you can do an extra 100-200 lines here and there in a team effort and help your paycheck, help the company reputation AND keep the client. I don't always pitch in, but usually do, and am happy to work for a company who appreciates us, treats us and pays us well. Suit yourself.
Plenty of work at TransHealth. As far as communication goes...sm
QA email is staffed round the clock and they are usually pretty quick to answer emails. There is always someone to answer the phone at the help desk etc. I've not run into any lack of communication.
What's the work flow situation at TransHealth these
nm
How is the work load at Transhealth? I'm thinking of
nm
I didn't gripe. I appreciate what QT does for me. nm
x
My gripe is about the fact that . . .
QA takes the time to change it. Once again, if it ain't broke . . .!!! I think their time could be better spent!
Anybody work for TransHealth as an employee and how do you like it? Is the insurance affordable?
nm
TransHealth does not send work offshore. Hires only US MTs. nm
Transhealth'ers...need some info on pay rate and how they are to work for....TIA
.
dont let em bother you, gripe away. you have a right!
:)
Honey, you go ahead and gripe
all know they stink and that they are thieves. I hope you can find a new position soon. Good luck to you, but please, please get away from SS.
What spell-checks work with Transhealth, Precyse and Medquist? nm
nm
IS THIS AN OSI AND MQ BOARD, OTHER PEOPLE THAT GRIPE GET CRUCIFIED. I.E. SS
When we get on this board and complain about our line count at SoftScript we get immediately told to go away. Our lines disappear day by day. Yet, any post for OSi or MQ seems to stay. We are people with legitimate gripes too (not to). Yet, we in turn get told to find a new job while you people continually gripe about your companies stealing from you. Try getting your lines taken away from you on a retrospective day to day basis and see how you like it. At least your lines are still there the next days, ours are not. WE HAVE A RIGHT TO GRIPE TOO. 
yes, but I was told as an IC that if work was slow ICs get no work since they are nto employees
nm
I want to know why ICs are still allowed to work when employees aren't getting work!!!
ICs should be the first to get NJA!!!!
Transhealth editors? Anyone with information on pay, work schedule, benefits, platform
I would appreciate any information before taking their test without knowing the scoop. Thanks!
That is gripe board. Freudian slip as in get a grip. LOL.
x
Hard to have a satisfying gripe session with management
on the board. If we had work we would not even have time to be here.
Dont gripe is will not even give them chance to reply.
nm
I have always had work when everyone else does and am out when employees are out so I am not sure I
buy that story that employees get work first. I think that is not true. I have looked into that in my office and it is as I say on this message. We all have work or we dont and there is no employees work and SE dont.
Employees are guaranteed work before
Ask your supervisor
Employees that work hard
I am sure that this may be the case in some instances, but to lump sum all MTs/editors/employees is not fair and accurate. I am a very hard working employee. I work 7 days/nights/weekends every week. I work and volunteer for ALL holidays even when not scheduled and I worked WHENEVER I was asked to work extra to cover for vacations or sickness. I have not complained, I have always been SO thankful to have my job. What did that result in? Well, let me tell you. I am now one of the Heartland Information Services laid off employees!!!! It did not matter in the end how many hours/days/nights/weekends/holidays that I worked, I am no longer employed by the company I had planned to retire from!! My loyality was betrayed and I am just supposed to keep going on and being loyal again? Think about that one! Respect and loyalty is a two way street. Treat the employees how they want to be treated and you will be treated with respect and loyalty as well. It cannot be low pay, minimal benefits and lay offs at a drop of a hat and in return expect absolute loyalty from employees. We have to work together in the end.
To MDI-MD employees running out of work (sm)
Are you working on C-phone accounts or the internet platform? I am just now in training, and I am wondering if I should re-think my decision. If there is new management in place and this is a direct result of such, I am now hesitant to continue.
What do you do if it is your scheduled weekend day to work. If you have set aside a certain time to work on a Saturday or Sunday and there is no work, do they expect you to continually check throughout the day in order to do your ''commitment? There is no way I can do this as I have other commitments also and can't spend 12 hours trying to do 5 hours of work. I can only set aside a certain timeframe to transcribe on the weekend and if there is no work in those hours, I won't be able to get the lines done. Any insight you can shed would be so much appreciated.
I'll love to know who you work for. I also work every weekend with no extra pay.
It'd be nice to get paid for all the nights and weekends I work.
That's because you're an IC. For employees, NOT flexible. And no work. nm
no msg
I think they do an excellent job of balancing work/employees.( sm)
Call or E-mail your supervisor and let him/her know. Came from MQ myself and I am not worried at all.
I came from MQ doing a main account of 900 plus beds so it was a shock to me to see the backlogs as low as they were on my accounts with Webmedx.
Trying to balance the work flow with employees must be an absolute nightmare. So many variables.
Good luck, call and talk to somebody. These are the nicest people who seem to really value their employees. What a change huh?
But I thought all Transcend employees had to work
That doesn't make sense. I could see that a lot of domestic MTs don't want to work 3rd shift and they need the coverage, but if all employees have to work at least 1 weekend day, there isn't much dictation over here on 3rd shift except for the occasional stats. It would seem they wouldn't have enough work to keep the overseas MTs going. I can't see an overseas service staying in business when they're only getting a few stats on each account for a couple hours on the weekend.
Love, love, love TransTech! Not overhiring, just growing like crazy!

I work for another company that advertises for new employees often with the same reaction. Maybe s
those who are NOT in-the-know should keep their opinions to themselves unless they know facts. The company I work for is hiring over 100 MTs as well due to two new accounts between now and the end of the year too. Maybe a few of the biggies have lost a few accounts that the mid-size MTSOs can handle in a more personal manner. Perhaps hospitals are FINALLY getting tired of the offshore garbage they are getting back from some of the other nationals. Either way, there are some major accounts changing services and a few of the mid-size MTSOs will need to pull from the transcriptionists out there looking for a better job!
Employees work a specific shift at TransTech?
Or do you just have to commit to a certain number of lines per day? An an IC with my current company, I commit to X number of lines per day, and as long as I get them done within 24 hours, I've met my commitment. Don't want shift work, i.e. 7-3, 3-11, 11-7. There is absolutely no flexibility in that. Noticed in post before this that Diskriter requires a shift commitment or a split shift.
Actually, having employees work at home is a benefit...TO THE COMPANY
more than the employee. The company doesn't have to pay for office space, electricity, etc.....
If you work for DR they send a form letter to all employees about bonuses.sm
If you work for them and are eligle, they send a form letter out letting everyone know how it was figured.
YEE GADS the old bitty's are out today.
I am wondering if employees with Futurenet have a hard time having adequate work flow..sm
Just started there not too long ago, but now finding out I am running out of work frequently. I have several accounts that I can work on, but all are empty most of the time. Have they overhired or is this the normal?
Spheris has work and they would love to have you work
z
I would love to work for DRC (sm)
but their family insurance coverage is over $900 per month! I can't afford to pay half of my salary for insurance. I wish they had a cheaper insurance plan.
I LOVE it this way! I get my work at 6 am and have
until 6 am the next day to return it completed. I love it! It's the greatest thing in the world. Some days, I type all morning and I'm done by noon, some days I have things to do so I type in the evening - works out great, AND, I get paid much higher doing it this way!
I work for them...love it!

I work for DSG..love it there.
I'm not an editor, but the staff, editors and MTs are great to work with. I am happy there.
SB
I work there and love it
I have been an SPI/CyMed employee for a year now and I love it there. The platform that they use is called Chartnet and it is sooooo easy to use. I have a great account that I have been on for the entire year that I have been there and I love it. I make excellent money there. My manager is very friendly and helpful. They do also have benefits, but I don't know too much about them since I have never needed to get them.
