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 ....
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!
You can search the archives here. I just checked
and there are pages and pages of recent info, within the last few months. I know I had a bad experience, no work, along with many others, though that situation was rather snowed over by the company. I didn't have time to wait around, that's for sure. I know how hard it is to find the right fit. I'm going thru similar with the line counts - I have an extremely difficult account, and cannot make enough to cover my needs. I'm hanging in there as well, but its so frightening in this economy to try and break away from one thing and get caught in something worse. I, too, used to type easily 300 lph, and now am at about 100 lph, and that is cranking it as well. Like you said, something just doesn't add up right. When you've done this long enough, you get a feel for what you should be doing, right? I either look at my lines every hour, and gasp from shock, or I wait for hours, then look, and nearly faint from shock, and not good shock. Sort of makes me think the unimaginable - going back -- to that place -- but I haven't reached that point yet, but am close. I just don't have the financial backing since leaving MQ to play around much longer. Sorry to turn this into me, rather than you, but I'm going thru the same thing. It seems some do great at MDI, and others do not. Its like a crap shoot, literally, if you pardon my French. It seems that way with most of the companies - you luck out and get a good account and good supe, or you get the opposite. Sort of sounds like MQ, doesn't it??? Scary.
I checked archives. Thanks. I almost made a bad decision.
No way will I work for them.
Any recent info on Landmark? I've already checked the archives. Thanks!
I checked and could not find my post.

I can't seem to find archives
listed like I used to. have there been changes??
You can't find anything in the archives? Come on....
This same question is asked every week and the answers are there and they are long and detailed. There is a reason they are always advertising.
Sorry, I can't find anything in the archives
but does Transtech have PTO (vacation pay) for PT employees? If not, do they allow you to take time off without pay to have a vacation? Thanks for any replies. Happy Easter!
All I can find in archives about Mediscript is sm
"Bad news!" and nothing else. That doesn't tell me or anyone else anything useful. I don't care if someone says "bad news!" but could they please back it up with some real info? Preferably first-hand experiences would be nice, thank you.
Does anyone out there have any info about Mediscript? I know they pay by the gross line, but how much? Do they offer direct deposit? When are the pay days? How's the platform? Any info appreciated. I'd like to gather some information first before I take any tests or talk to them so I can determine if it's worth going through all that for a job that might not be a fit for me.
I can't find TC Transcription in archives..can you tell me the name
as I'm looking too..I have 2 or 3 bigger ones written down but am looking for something smaller..thanks
Any info on D&L? Can't find them in the archives. TIA. nm

If you read the archives you should find what you are looking for, although
you won't find much good about them.
If you read the archives you won't find much
good about them. They switch you from account to account. They have had management problems for many years. Their line counting is difficult to figure out and they dock you for lots of things. They also offshore and are currently training women in Trinidad and somewhere else so you know what that means. Some of their accounts are teaching hospital and I worked on one of them and the dictation quality was horrendous. If you're a newbie I doubt they'd put you on it though.
There are worse companies out there, but I still wouldn't recommend TRS.
couldn't find anything in archives, but
I googled them and you can find links about them there.
If you look in the archives you'll find several
posts regarding problems with getting paid. They don't pay that well to start with. I have 20 years of experience and they offered me 8 cpl. I don't know anything else about them, but the payment issue would be enough for me to stay away.
J&J Transcribing - can't find anything in archives or...
on board. Have tried typing it in as J&J and J and J. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!
Any information on All Type. Could not find anything in the archives.
I know they are hiring so I am just trying to gather some information before applying.
If you look in the archives you will find a much different story about offshoring ...
As well as lots of other things by what appears to be more than one poster.
could not find anything in archives regarding "All Type". Anyone have info on.....
Do they only hire employees, or IC's also: What platform do they use: Are they a good company to work for?
Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.
RE: could not find anything in archives regarding "All Type". Anyone have info on.....
From their web site: At ALL TYPE, our goal is to recruit and retain the very best medical transcriptionists. We would like you to consider joining us. If you qualify, you would be a welcome part of our team of highly trained Medical Transcriptionists (MTs). ALL TYPE transcriptionists enjoy the flexibility of being in an at-home environment as full-time employees or if you prefer, as independent contractors. Our staff retention rate is high for good reason.Our MTs say they have never worked in a happier group or for a company that attended to their issues in such a responsive way. As a matter of fact, many of our new MTs are referrals from our existing MT staff. See what our people say....(click here)
We pay our MTs highly competitive rates.
You have the opportunity for career advancement.
You'll use cutting-edge technology.
I couldn't find anything specific in the archives. What are the complaints?

Thanks. I did search the archives, but didn't find the answers (SM)
to my specific questions. That is why I posted.
Any NEW information about Interpro? All I find in the archives arent very recent

Mercy Health Partners, anybody ever heard of them? Can't find anything in the archives. nm

Anyone know any info on Silent Type out of New York? I don't know how to find in archives. Thnx

Searched archives and cannot find info on MedScript Services, Inc. and Inscribe software...sm
They are also on the web as MedScript Services, Inc. I think that they're based in Naples, Florida. I also believe that they use a platform called INSCRIBE. Any comments on the software or company?
If you'll read the archives you'll find out everything
you want to know, none of it good.
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!

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.
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.

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.
