I know personally that when DD hits the bank, I can take it out right then and thus withdrawals can

It does not take 3-5 days. That just is not so.
As far as it being the MT's fault, it is the MT's fault only for relying on their DD to be there! Sorry, but when DD is supposed to be in there, it is supposed to be in there. I have two bank accounts, one is for bills only and that is the one where the DD hits. If my DD were late, I would incur charges. Luckily I work for a company that pays on time and you can always rely on them to have that money in the bank on time.
Unfortunately, some of you work for the MTSO who apparently cannot do that and apparently there are more than one of them.
They should offer to pay your late charges due to their lack of responsibility. However, when the MT has had this happen once, I would hope they would learn their lesson than to rely on doing it again because apparently the MTSOs that do this have no conscience.

Not personally, but seen this happen to a few when I used to work in HR at a bank - sm
Sorry you are going through this. I know when I worked in HR at a bank we absolutely would not consider anyone no matter how nice their resume if they had filed for bankruptcy or even had a bill more than 30 days late. You may want to consider another alternative. Best wishes to you.
Thanks. I have noticed some hits on the job board have over 1000 hits and I am thinking oh my!

It depends on your bank not Keystrokes when they post it. When your bank opens it will be there, ar
Hope this helps. Their payroll department is very efficient. In fact, I feel dumb beside them. Very professional (not that they make me feel dumb).
HITS platform.... sm
Didn't you get a HITS manual with your computer? You should have. It's a very user friendly program, "if" you get to use it. I was trained on HITS and then ended up working on two accounts that didn't use it. I was there a month and all I did was train, train and train. Not for me. I'm not saying that happens to everyone. I'm pretty sure most of their accounts use HITS.
No, but they had 342 hits on their ad, so I'd expect
they took the weekend off and won't contact anyone until later this week.
Hits just mean people looking. I always look,

I am and have been on the HITS platform......sm
since I was hired by Healthscribe. I love the HITS platform, and I am being told that Cornerstone is going to be a combination of both HITS/TWS, but as my TL puts on, on steroids. She seems to think it is going to be a great thing. I hope it is as good as she says, because I am really quite comfortable working in HITS.
I tell ya, when it all hits you the fall sm
is going to be much harder! I only hope folks won't be as unfeeling to you as you have been.
Folks do what they have to do to stretch a dollar my dear. It just hasn't hit you yet but it could and it a much bigger way.
I think it's when a post keeps getting hits after it's already reached a certain # of viewings

Have to agree. Tax time hits companies, too.

EHR Deinstallation Trend Hits Phoenix
Publish Date: 7/30/09 - By Allison Tsai
Source: Medical Economics
Though the Phoenix area has seen a high adoption rate for electronic health records, it also is the first region to experience a “deinstallation” trend, according to a HealthLeaders-InterStudy report.
The trend to cancel EHR contracts, especially prevalent among smaller physician groups, is a result of training, functionality or affordability issues, and highlights the need for an affordable solution, according to the Phoenix Market Overview report.
The rapid adoption of EHR technology in Arizona stems from a 2005 executive order by then-Gov. Janet Napolitano, requiring that all healthcare providers install an EHR by 2010. The top hospital systems in the area, Banner Health and Catholic Healthcare West, along with several others, have installed EHRs, but are struggling with the same financial constraints as the small physician groups. EHRs require a significant financial investment in addition to expensive upgrades, according to the report.
Long-term benefits of the technology include reduced transcription costs, lower chart and file storage expenses and the potential for reduced premiums on malpractice insurance, but in areas like Miami, where the recession is threatening the profitability of hospitals, EHR installation has been slow due to lack of funding for such projects.
Chris Clancy, a market analyst with HealthLeaders-InterStudy, says Phoenix may be the first area to experience the deinstallation trend due to its aggressive adoption of the technology, but will likely not be the last. In addition, physician shortages in Phoenix make it difficult for doctors and staff to carve out time for EHR training, Clancy says.
Ex-Spheris MT, HITS is a windows-based application...
you will type in. It is very, very user friendly. Frankly, it is the only aspect I miss about working for Healthscribe/Spheris. Good luck!!
good, let them do all the India work, and take all the hits for law suits...
I wish they would monopolize the India market and totally stick with that...
I also posted an article about this a few weeks back, even with pictures of the offices in India (lot nicer than here).
hope they put all their money into it and then when technology takes all our jobs, they will have nothing.
Medquist, hate it or not, has invested rather in the technology, thereby will be the leaders in that. if I worked there I would train and learn everything I could about working with that technology because that eventually, in my opinion, will drive even Indian MTs into unemployment.
With over 5 million hits per month to this site, it is quite cumbersome to just pick out the bad
posts, so the entire thread goes. Besides that, generally there are a LOT of posts within a thread that are inappropriate. Please don't think for a moment that I'm only referring to OSI. I am referring to ANY company. I am only asking that posters back up what they are saying with FACTS not innuendo.
There are so many hits on the job board for jobs that I wonder if people are qualified that respond
or just send in a resume if they are not. Would be interesting to hear from some of these companies what type of response they are getting.
And furthermore, you can see this hits a sore spot, this giving people backup accounts and then
you run out of them is also ridiculous. There you sit making less and less money and trying to learn multiple dictators and then guess what, that dries up. Once you know that is what a company is doing, then you go to your alternate plans and never look back. Sooner or later when MTs either decide no more or they get multiple jobs and they have to keep hiring and hiring which impacts their quality I am sure it will settle down. At least, I would hope so although it doesnt seem to be right now. Could be because of sending work offshore not sure. All multiple backup accounts do is make it harder to make money and you have more problems with QA and your own quality because you just keep popping in and out of all these accounts that you really dont get to know that well. Knowing an account well is the best way to go for quality and line count for sure, NOT multiple accounts. All that does is help the MTSO keep the work caught up to the exact MINUTE.
where is the job bank? please? nm

OSI has no PTO bank
OSI has no PTO banks and has stopped paying extra for holidays. You will be paid extra only if you type minimum line quota which is impossible because there is never any work on holidays.
So what companies have PTO banks or other benefits for holidays? That was the question. Thank you.
Oh sure, I'm the CEO and I own a bank, and part of the
London Bridge, and all that good stuff. SHEESH! You all ask for some good things about the company, but through your crystal ball you see the future. I still say, go ahead and leave...you'll find out soon enough that all is not well with other companies. I know - I've BTDT. EVERY company has editing positions now - it's the next phase of transcription, but never ever will ALL transcription be done by this method. I will continue to transcribe with a POSITIVE attitude, while you and your "Current Transcender" buddy leave and live with a NEGATIVE attitude. Good luck to you!
Your bank should cover you for the
fraudulent use of your card. In the meantime, please file a police report on your daughter's friend. The ATM should have photos of her. Good luck to you--that's awful.
It's in their bank account, not yours
I, too, struggled with the 401K plan at Medware because they are about 6 months behind in making the employee contribution. I finally withdrew from the plan because I could save more money on my own.
post is still in the job bank

It is DD and usually in my bank on Saturday before

Job Seekers/Job Bank
I never really noticed how many were coming on a daily basis before. They obviously haven't flocked to the other board. I think they have 7 postings for the whole month. Maybe companies just aren't hiring as much right now. I didn't notice the Job Bank before you said that. I never even think to look there. Maybe companies aren't thinking to post there, either.
you called their bank or yours?
x
I wonder if it is a bank thing?
See if they release the deposit before 2pm on Friday I get it on Saturday, but if they released it after 2pm I would not have gotten it until Monday. Maybe it is a bank thing?
mtjobs.com and the job bank here..sm
Both have employee jobs listed. I know Med-Scribe, Focus (don't automatically count them out, not all have had bad experiences), WebmedX, eTransPlus and a couple others are hiring employees.
Could the MT also take it to a branch of the bank...
On which it was drawn, and would it then be stamped NSF? I was thinking it might save her some money for that bounce-back NSF fee, provided it's drawn on a national bank like BofA or WF where there might be a branch close to her home.
I've never had to do this (thank goddess!), so I'm kind of taking a shot in the dark here.
My bank did it when it merged with another and I did not find out
until I got their notice of changes two weeks after they began. It was my personal account and both my mortgage and car checks bounced because of it.
MRC seems to be new around here & has an ad in the Job Bank with an Indian contact. Don't know
s
I had the same thing, not bounced but not in the bank. Will never do
it again. Once may be explainable. Twice or more there is no excuse.
I am able to pay my bills as have money in the bank but
I really would like to be able to get the check when it is due. Direct deposit and just checked, still not there. I love my job and really make a decent salary as opposed to some who are not but gosh, looks like we could get when we are supposed to. It is not like we are not paid, just not on the date we are told.
Mine is in my bank. I just checked! nm

Job bank used to have 3 or more pages of jobs.

if the check is from an out of state bank,
they usually put a hold on it.
If you have the funds to cover the check, put it in savings and transfer savings to checking. That way the hold is on the savings account.
it is not unusual for a bank to hold a
check over a certain amount for up to a week.
Are you saying your bank put a hold on your check - sm
Or that your employer is telling you that your check didn't clear because their bank has placed a hold on the checks?
I'm asking because I worked for an MTSO who would always pay late or bounce checks and claim it was his bank's fault as they were placing extended holds on his deposits thereby funds not being available - supposedly.
If it is your bank, then yes, they will place holds on the check until the funds clear the bank - anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks, depending on their policy.
If it is the MTSO, run, don't walk, away from this company. I had this happen to me back in 2005/2006 and believe it or not, it is still happening and it is amazes me that companies like this can continue to do business this way.
bank account freeze
To anyone out there who is considering working for Preferred Transcriptions in Pennsylvania, I would say, keep far, far away.
My bank recently notified me of a 15-day hold on a check of theirs due to the account being frozen which means that it has a hold on it due to creditors. On top of that, they never pay on time. Most companies will pay in two weeks but here it is always at least three weeks after submission of invoice.
Have had no satisfaction from the company who are basically putting it on me. They said the check has cleared but refuse to provide documentation and are now ignoring my e-mails.
Will probably have to go to small claims court and just maybe, I will get my money. javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');
She's having a good laugh all the way to the bank
Aren't you the one that signed on???????? The jokes on you MT.... You alone darling! Have fun when the work runs out, and then you'll realize why these other MTs posted about TTD's scam in the past, and now trying it one more time to see if she can find any other suckers to work a set shift as an IC.
My 401K is in the bank and nothing has been lost
that way.
Wow, where do you bank? Mine is not there yet .. getting a bit nervous. :( nm
Jobs Bank Offers
JUST SAY NO TO FIVE CENTS PER LINE!!!!
ESL??? Good Dictator????
IT DOESN'T MATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was making 5 CENTS PER LINE BACK IN 1989!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know about the rest of you, but I sure can't support my family on the same wages I made back in 1989, now, in 2009!!!
This is TWENTY YEARS LATER!!!!!!!
In 1989, my rent was $350/month.
In 2009, my mortgage (signed for in 2003) is $850/month.
I live in a house that is now considered to be in a
*low-rent* area!!!!!!!!!
Yes, I'm mad!!!!!!!!
JUST SAY NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ya know, my grandmother always said talking to yourself means you either have $$ in the bank, or
you're losing your marbles!! Will the real MQMT please stand up? or sit down?
Mine also can't seem to get the amount right and it is always the bank's fault. sm
right!
Unless you cash the checks on the bank they are written on, you
have to cash them against funds in your own account. That's how the banks cover their behinds on NSF checks.
I meant bank---LOL...not enough coffee this morning...

They don't send work to anyone. Period. You can take that to the bank.

Today is not payday. DD will be in bank tomorrow. nm

Mine has been in the bank midnight Friday and
I have promised to pay some bills Saturday morning! I sure hope that I don't get into trouble over this. I know they say we don't get paid til Monday, but if the money has always been there before, why should we assume different! I will be in some real trouble if the money is not in the bank midnight tonight. The bills don't wait til the weekend is over the money is due now. Why would they not communicate a problem with us? Before I have a fit, I am going to assume it will be there. Why assume the worst if they did not say anything right? (she asks nervously).
