I checked the archives and can find nothing...
Any info on JLG please?
What happened to my post? The last time I checked in, there were no responses. sm
I had asked which companies did not require working Saturday or Sunday. Thanks for your help!
Wow, let me know if you find that post
I'd like to see that post if you can find it.
Here's the only post I find about them ...

Try to find a positive post here
Sorry, but I don't know about the schools. I got into transcription from being in the medical field.
I don't blame you for not wanting to hear the negative. I am sick to death of seeing this negative stuff as well. I checked in here looking for samples and mistakenly decided to answer a post from someone who asked for a company recommendation. I complimented OSi for standing by me through hard times, then got mortally raked over the coals for doing that. No company is perfect but neither am I.
This board is filled with people criticizing OSi, other companies, and other people. I hope you can get an answer to your question. I have had enough of disgruntled people on this board.
See post above about not being told to find another job
and then decide how wonderful they are. Shannon is a real class act (NOT!) to work with.
please tell me why you find it necessary to dissect every post-sm
and be so cruel for someone making a type. What is wrong with you??? I for one don't proofread everything I post on here. I can just imagine how you treat people in person.
Sometimes you can find an old post by doing a search.
I think the post you are referring to was from 11-28, and is probably on page 2 by now. It was from the owner of AAmT where she wrote:
We are currently in the transition phase of taking on business from another company. Therefore, please do not be confused if you call the office number and hear Synthescribe. Synthescribe is a corporation in Nashville who provides offshore labor solutions to health care providers in conjunction with onshore. AAmT is acquiring service contracts of Synthescribe's and will be providing 100% US labor solutions to these clients. I personally look forward to building a team of qualified US MTs and editors to support these health care facilities. They are thrilled about the fact we will be providing onshore services under AAmT's leadership.
Hope that helps clear things up for you.
Happy Holidays
Thanks for your post, I did find a "true IC" job which I took then...sm
and have been very happy with ever since, real freedom, great people, great system to work with......I think I applied, tested, interviewed, etc, with at least 20 to 30 companies before I was blessed to find the right one for me....don't EVER be afraid to interview the company and recruiter vigorously, talk to folk who have worked there, Google as much info as you can, be sure your info is fairly new.....yes, recruiters are the cheerleaders for the company, understandably, i was able to not only speak with the recruiter, but with the MTSO/owner/boss, and she even game ME referenes for her companies, other MTs working for her (she had their permission for this), all in all, best of luck and take your time evaluating!
I find your post amusing
Why in the world if someone posts on here speaking lovingly of VR, does that automatically mean they are not doing the same job as you and I (transcription)? I worked for years and years straight typing and several times I had people come into the office at the hospital where I worked and would seek me out wanting to watch me type because I typed so fast. To assume that anyone loving only is slow is a total myth and all in their minds. I type 130 or more an hour. I did not ask to go to VR and was really upset when told the hospital where working was going to that. I had worked for the hospital 13 years when VR came along for us. I wanted to stay with the same hospital and dictators. After trained on VR, then came the outsourcing for our department. Well by this time I was up in age, middle 50s and frankly I did not want to hit the pavement trying to find another job. I knew nothing about MTSOs or the like because had always in my MTing years just worked in hospitals doing this type of work. I now am going into my 19th year working still for the same hospital still in the same town, the only difference is my employer is located thousands of miles away. I love VR because I make a good salary, still fast (get some occasional straight because there are interns that dictate from the hospital) but I stayed with VR because of the above reasons. Believe me, not everyone who loves has to be an owner. Never an owner and do not care for a headache like that. I for one second do not doubt the person's typing speed. In the 80s I made almost $70,000 for the year, not bad for a slow typist, huh?
Thanks, that was me, but could not find so thought I forgot to post nmI
.
I find your post embarrassing and offensive as well.
x
The pay is very low and they also offshore. If I can find the link, I'll post it.
.
If you find the original post so offensive, why did you respond at all?
Why don't you get a clue? A good number of people enjoyed this. If you dislike it, you can just move on to some rosy-happy-fun filled post and leave the rest of us to chuckle without being harassed.
On the contrary, I find your post refreshing and true. sm
I agree whole-heartedly that MTSOs AND MTs are in it for a paycheck. It's not personal. If you don't like your employer's treatment, find another company where their style is more to your liking.
your post doesn't make much sense. Find another job then? That's what the rest of us do!
The lazyMT was from a prior post about testing..NOT about my personal habits. I find it odd that you
would reply with someone so insignificant and to which no one cares about your opinion. You don't know me and you certainly have no idea if I am lazy in regards to my lifestyle habits so go back where you came from, troll..
I find this post funny. If a company advertises constantly, posters question if they are losing peo
3 weeks, since 5/24, there are posts that question if they are growing. Who cares if a company is growing or not as long as they have enough work for their MTs. I started PT with KS two weeks ago and will be going FT 7/10 after my long-awaited and much-needed vacation. They have treated me very well and have plenty of work if the account I work on is any indication. I also came to them on the recommendation of several MT friends who work there, all of whom are very happy and have been for a while.
If you want to work for a particular company, your best bet is to contact them. I have read in several publications that more jobs are filled before advertising than after the fact.
Give them a call, especially if you like/love radiology!
I find your post sarcastic.... shrug shrug
What was the question again? Cannot find your post or question? NM

Did find a Wright Watson Sten-Tel in Austin if their site isn't old. Find 'em with Google. nm

I checked my QA
and you are right. I don't know who it is tho.
Checked it out
My account doesn't use I-chart, but on a small single chart I counted every character and every space and ended up with 902; divided 65 into that and got 14+. When I checked my line count later, it was 15. Did the same with the next one. It also agrees with the Word Count under Tools. Checking CTL-S and statistics gives me a higher count, but I think that includes the headers, for which we do not get paid. It looks fine to me. I'm not sure about I-Chart. This is Xpress line counter though, and I don't see anything like skimming. Maybe you should explain better.
I have checked into 3 different
8 cpl seems to be the going rate for 8 years experience. However, at one of the nationals, if I worked odd hours of the night, produced over 2000 lines an 8 hr shift I could get paid more than 10 cpl.
I had already checked...
the archives and the main board but I double checked just to make sure and sure enough there's nothing much there. The few that are recent are my posts, one about the type of platform they use and want ads, that's it. All other posts are around a year old. I read them anyway and it was informative, provided nothing has changed that is. That's why i was really needing someone who currently works there to shed some light.
Not last I checked!
nm
I had checked into them once,...
And I thought their web site said they did NOT hire US MTs. Maybe is mis-read something. Good luck!
I checked out TRX...
...they require 500 lines per day for part time on a very heavy ESL account. I was looking for something to do 4 to 6 hours a day on fri/sat/sun but if they are difficult clinicians to understand, it could take you 12 hours to 500 lines! just FYI.
not last I checked ...
almost, but not quite.
My doc checked into it but said
it was too expensive right now. So he's not making the switch until forced to do so. So I'm safe for a little while. I told him to give me at least a couple month's notice. LOL
I just checked
and the highest producers posted had 98% or above, usually 99%. The reason I have gotten a higher LPH is from a change in how I look things up (using a nice Auto Hot Key script) and not because I am actually going faster. ISR has helped my total LPH average as well--something else people don't like to hear. I can't imagine I am that special so I think others can do it too.
Trying to find info on Encompass on this board, can't find any recent. sm
Anyone have any current info. Any employees out there? Give me the low-down if you can! Thanks a million.
Have you checked the archives lately?? sm
All those negative posts, and there must have been hundreds, have been deleted. It ain't what you know ....
I had checked out their website before...
and I liked what I read. I also love Softmed/Chartscript. Can you tell me how they pay (DD, per line, etc) and how much? Thank you!
Just checked for funsies and
all 3 of my accounts at MDI-MD are on the list! This is definitely not a list of their accounts, although I'm sure they would love for everyone to believe that. 
Have you checked outside, there might be a black
Why care who reads what, if you're telling the truth it makes no difference. Management might take the time to read this site (as if they have nothing better to do) for entertainment but give them more credit for intelligence than to base any management or company decision making issues on anything said on a board like this. If you say nothing on here you wouldn't be afraid to say to management, then who cares what they see/read. If management is particularly bad or corrupt, etc., they don't care if you know it because they've already figured out a way around what they're doing. Now go close all your blinds and cower in the corner and wait for them to come busting through the door.
NN is right -- notification is in the e/mail; i just checked.

Already checked out archives, nothing recent
Well, had an interview scheduled today with Amphion at 9:00 a.m. - they called and set it up - I'm still waiting for the phone call and it's 9:47 a.m. TransHealth called, now I called back and they're all in meetings. This is very frustrating. I think I will accept Oracle for the time being, since they are IC and TransHealth and Amphion are FTE, and keep waiting. Someone has to be a good match. I thought TransHealth or Amphion would be great choices, but now - set up an interview and not call? I didn't call them, they called me, but now after scheduling the interview - no one called? TransHealth sounds great - now if I can just connect with the guy who called me. If not ... who's next?
Medware, checked the archives but...sm
Nothing really recent. Pros, cons? Any opinions appreciated. TIA!
It took them over 2-3 weeks to just get my references checked....and....
then by the time they got my references checked, they said that all they had was an opening for third shift, which I was being hired for first shift...so I turned them down. I had a little bit of hesitancy to begin with before taking the job. Then, I looked on their website, saw that they offshored, sent the guy an email who was hiring me telling him that I don't think I would be a good fit for a company that offshores (because I do not think it is right),he called me back and emailed me back franticly stating they do not offshore, blah, blah, blah...But that just gave me more leverage to turn down the job ONCE THEY FINALLY called me back...I would be very careful with them...Never worked for them, but that is my experience....
I checked before I posted here. I thought of that first.
Thanks though.
Checked to see who the person was who was so angry...and....
She worked at Shapin for 2 days and was unable to complete her work with any quality at all. Her scores were in the low 80's. So YES she was MOST DEFINITELY let go and YES she is MOST DEFINITELY angry about that. Sorry S. Please retake a Medical Transcription course before moving on. All employers would appreciate that!
Oops! Haven't checked in in a ....
..couple of days--didn't mean to leave you hanging . Um, I don't fully remember the pay scale, except that it was a little tricky. I was only going to work for them part-time and didn't hang around long enough to find out. As I said, the platform was sooo tedious and time-consuming that I honestly didn't think I'd be able to make any money there.
Have you checked with the office? My account seems to
be running behind. Do you have a backup acount?
I checked line counts ...
...against Flash count with the same settings and it comes out accurate. I have trouble getting good production as well, but I feel assured it's not that.
I use ExText for a hospital. I have checked
Word and then counting, and it comes out right every time - it totals the characters and spaces and divides by 65. I get paid for everything I type.
I've asked, and I have checked myself - (sm)
when there is no lag time on I-chart, usually early morning, typed normal template, and it did count. I also asked and we do get paid for everything except headers and footers.
Last I checked I didn't need gas to get to work
On my accounts everyone knows my name, I don't usually have reason to call the office. If I have problems I talk with my team leader or the regional manager, which is what I suggest you do. Why is it hard for people to voice their concerns to the company or people in charge of their specific accounts?? If you have no work then ask for more accounts.
need to get my glasses checked. The guarantee for the
rose-coloring must have expired and now everything looks gray and bleak at this company. Glad you are as lucky as you are.
Mine is in my bank. I just checked! nm

I was told because I lived in Fl. I have checked,
