And you guys R showing everybody YOUR true colors!
What a spiteful bunch U are! Jeez, Louise.
proveros true colors
Guys, 42, 41, 30 days who cares. Can you see the attitude of the chick who keeps saying stuff is DEFAMATORY...can you imagine dealing with a person like this on a day to day basis and and then again when you DON'T get paid even after 100 days. Bottom line...they don't pay. Avoid this crazy Indian owned company.
Hope you're enjoying those slave wages you're earning.
.
I hope that's true, might make me feel a little better...
Even if they are being charged less, the rates companies are paying MTs to do VR is grossly unfair. There is no way it takes half the time to do VR as compared to regular. You still have to listen to the whole dictation. Maybe 65-70% would be fair, not 50%.
Very true. I would think and hope the forum would be open to all (m)
MDIers leaving, planning to leave, and not sure what the heck to do, and those waiting it out to see what happens. We could all compare notes, give insight when able, be supportive, etc. I hope there's a way to effectively do this privately.
Hey! Stop posting like this or they're going to think I'm you!
You're likely to get more response by posting your
resume on the various job sites, here and elsewhere.
Little mt, we're always posting the same, looool -nm
True! I just hope the wrong person doesn't
get banned in error.
I'm not posting contracts. You're insane!
I don't care if they don't believe me. I'm the one getting paid. What do I care if they don't believe me? I can understand the problem with others getting hired in at higher rates, but truly that is their situation, not mine.
You're real sharp but not I'm not dull enough to bite that! LMAO
GrammEr? Hope you're not QA also!
nm
Gee, I really hope you're not certified....
being you can't spell right LOLOLOLOL
6 cpl - I hope you're talking about
editing, here. You have 4 years' acute care experience and should be making at least 8 cpl. IC should pay more since they don't have to pay benefits. Check the job board out. I'm sure you'll find something.
I just hope you're not back here a (sm)
month from now claiming someone or some company took your money for a newbie chance or internship type situation and it was a scam. If there was a legit company, the post could have just posted without the need for asking for private contact.
ANON, you're such a loser for posting your 2 cent goodbye!

CindyMT: I would suggest you watch what you're posting. Unless you have proof
that you are being ripped off, which you don't, you are slandering the company. Do you really want to be doing that?
That is wonderful news. I hope the changes stick and the new office manager is a true asset to the
owner. She is a lovely woman and I wish her much success. I just might check them out again. Thanks for the information.
You go, Girl! Hope you're feeling better! nm

Don't understand your post. I hope you're not sm
faulting the MTs who are stuck with dialup because DSL/broadband is not offered in their areas.
I hope I don't get that account you're talking about either.
I am a little scared now.
Seriously, what's the point of posting if you're gonna leave out the most vital info? nm
xx
Hope they're already told the employees at the hospital that they are out of a job. I don't t
they should post specifics like this.
Well, I HOPE they're a good place to work...
... since I worked for TRS and thus got acquired by Transcend when TRS did.
Interestingly... when I was job-hunting about 7 months ago, I basically read every entry in the MT Companies section of another forum (M T Chat)looking for companies that got good reviews. Because it got very good reviews there, Transcend was the second-to-last company I applied to, just before TRS. At that time, Transcend was only testing for acute care (my 36 years of clinical in multiple specialties wasn't good enough, I guess) so they told me no thanks. And now they've got me anyway.
I am still reserving judgment because the merger only happened 2 weeks ago; and I am still working on my same accounts, under the same supervisors, on the same platform, so there have been no visible changes as yet....
Sincerely, I do hope you're prepared to work for 8 cpl now
Apparently MDI was one of the companies that paid their experienced MTs pretty well.
With the merge, you'll be making less eventually. If you quit and look for a new job, you'll be making less, way less, than you were making at MDI.
I'm another one who's BTDT, too. I went from making 11 cpl to now making 8 cpl. I tried HARD to find any company, obscure to well known, that will start off more than that. Couldn't find 'em. Probably won't ever go up, either.
Just sayin' that you should be prepared to budget your living costs for the amount of money you'll be missing each month compared to what you were making at MDI. It's awful, I know, been through it. Going to school now to do something else, getting out.
hope so! they're hiring like crazy now, editors & MTs evidently ~nm
Deb Garrison, I hope you're reading this board, because I'm coming at you with one hell of a l
I know that there are a lot of you out there who are owed money. Some of you are owed LOTS of money and Deb just spends it on herself. You'll likely NEVER get paid, but together you can all make sure she never runs an MTSO again. But, what needs to happen is ALL MTs screwed out of their paychecks must come together for this to actually happen. You all can email me at flagfootballcoach@gmail.com and we will pull together and bring down the hammer on this woman. She has had too many different businesses, taken people for their hard earned money, and needs to be shut down for good.
I took it and passed with flying colors
and it was not worth my time for what they are offering - to anyone who had not taken it - my advice is DON'T.
True. If they're cheating us on pay when we do
But not impossible.
I will take one with a skirt, preferably spring colors. nm

You're very sharp. True. I'm not a recruiter.
Yes, there is a difference. I do not solicit for positions. The company does that for me. I review, test, interview, and then hire.
Not all posts on this page written as Hiring Manager are mine, by the way.
I passed the MQ test with flying colors putting 2 spaces
after a period, so I don't think that's why you failed.
I've ALWAYS put 2 spaces. That's how we were trained, and that's always been the correct way to type a document. I'm so sick of the BOS's bull, though the company I'm with now follows BOS, but we all put 2 spaces still.
Okay, just a little frustration showing ...
Don't let it get to you, if you can help it. Life goes on. Good luck.
careful.....your IP is showing......LOL!

Nothing of mine is showing.
Don't worry 'bout me ;-)
Maybe I'm showing my ignorance
But I don't know why it wouldn't. When we use these platforms, at least in theory they are not supposed to do anything to our copy of Word. They just sort of overlay it with their platform. Over the last couple of years, I've accumulated several different platforms on my desktop without problem. Maybe if you tried running both at the same time you would run into issues, but using them separately should present no problem.
ur ignorance is showing now..
You stated VR demands constant checking and correcting throughout the whole document.
Those are the MTs who are so terribly outraged about the change to VR because they cannot make usage of their so helpful, comfortable and practical Expanders anymore.
How dang dumb is that statement. Those helpful, comfortable and practical expanders are what made us more lines and thus made us more valuable to the MTSO by making them more money! Sheesh....
Dennis Paulik not showing up
You know what...those 2 ladies did his dirty work for him...the 2 of them have built quite a reputation for themselves. I wonder if he (Dennis) will turn around and find them to be overpaid so that they will find themselves out of jobs too. Let's be honest, there's nothing they do that a person from India can't do...Just remember...you reap what you sow. That motto applies to not only to Dennis but to Kathy Clemmons and Colleen Neidert as well...because remember, God doesn't like ugly, which is all that they seem to have spewed here. This is a horrible situation and if I were in the shoes of these 2 women, I would worry if I would be the next person to stand in the unemployment line.
Your anonymous and just showing one of the reasons
that SS is a horrible place to work.
I hope you're right. I've been waiting 4 wks for an ID - still waiting! nm
s
typed "thanks" at the end of the above msg, not wha'ts showing there. nm
I've been working 5 hours and it is still only showing 250 lines. It will
come up eventually correct, but seems to take forever.
Is Transtech payroll being done in-house now? My DD is not showing up yet today and it always is.
I know payday is Monday, but mine has always shown up at my bank today. I hope they don't start delaying our paychecks because it is being done inhouse instead of being outsourced.
Anybody else see their's in bank yet?
Again, your post is showing your lack of knowledge of the company now. sm
I am not going to argue with you but suffice to say that RD is no longer here either. It has obviously been a while since you were an employee of the company. I don't know and don't care why you left/or were let go, but do not speak of something you know absolutely nothing about. It only looks bad on you.
It was a web-inar showing how to use the BCBS insurance site, mostly. sm
Talk to HR if you need more help. It was presented by BCBS, not our HR group. Showed how to access your account, benefit stuff online.
Want to call you all kinds of management but showing them, no response at all. zzzzzzzzz
NM
the posting is the exact same posting as you read on the
job seekers board. It is under state boards
Sad but true. You're asked to work NOW, then asked to stop NOW, then go again and then stop
If you dont get off the minute the hospital asks, even if you have no idea that they have requested that your to be off, then the hospital MTs steal your work right out of your queue and I mean reports you have already done. I dont understand the concept of having a contract with a hospital and then having to fight for work with the hospital MTs. We should have guaranteed work during our shift and enough of the the hospital wants you to help right now and then a few hours later they want us to stop working as the work is too low. It is crazy and I couldnt work like that so I had to quit.
Glad that's true for you for 8 years. Not true for many. I love the company, but I do run out of
as do many others. Wish I were as fortunate as you.
Not necessarily true. That is not a true test of skill.
Do you know how many people get others to take tests for them? It happens and it happens more often than you might think. The only skill that shows anyway is that you can do it.
We are actually more than a transcriptionist. We are specialists in our field and we are supposed to know some things regarding anatomy and physiology as a working base. That's how we can judge if a physician dictates something in accurately and many do because they can't pronounce or just are not thinking. That's why our skills of basic knowledge come into play and that means basic knowledge of body parts. If our job was just to sit there and type without thinking about what we are transcribing, then all patients are in trouble and this is just based on what I see as a QA person.
It's more than just knowing how to transcribe and some of the companies have discovered how to know what your basic knowledge is based on what you have picked up with your experience by utilizing your references etc. Hopefully that utilization of your references has taught you something that does stick in your head.
Beliefs like yours are just so far off base. You have to know what you are doing. It's not just about being able to listen and type. Base knowledge is a very important thing and the services have to find a way to know that knowledge base that is there in your head.
So you guys feel you're getting paid what you're worth with VR?
I'm not trying to be snarky. I've never done VR, so I'm trying to understand.
You're happy with your paycheck with VR? Do you find the files to be as bad as the original post implied?
So you're telling me, basically, they're bad news?
They offered me 0.095/line and you know - it sounded too good to be true, but I SWEAR the recruiter told me they do not outsource. Oh brother... I just wish they'd be honest. I really don't know what to do.
