I see other MT's work all the time (m)

On one of my accounts I am able to pull up old reports on a patient. I do it often if I can't understand something or have a question about something in the report I'm typing, as I can often find the info in the patient's old records, H&P for the current admission, etc. We are told to do this by the company.
If the real problem is the violation or the attitude, then they need to say that. What benefit is there in complaining about an MT's punctuation when the real issue is something totally different?

Thank you! I'm looking for part-time work to supplement my no-work full-time job.
I'm lookin for part-time work (about 3-4 hrs daily) after 13 years of full-time, anyone know of a
company that is hiring flexible part-time? I'm starting a career in real estate but don't want to totally quit transcription, but I think most places require 25 hours a week and I cant work weekends, as real estate sales are the biggest on the weekend with open houses and people off work to shows homes to. If you know of a place I'd sure appreciate the info. Thanks!
i work 3 part-time jobs now. it can be confusing if you are learning both at the same time, but sm
other than that not a problem for me. best to get one down before starting to other or you might become overwhelmed.
Ugh - well I did all my work on time and I expect to be paid on time.
The phone company doesn't wait, the cable company doesn't wait, and the electric company doesn't wait for their money either - all of which I need to pay in order to do my job. I work when I am supposed to, I help when behind, and give 110%, and I ask for my check to be on time.
I think if an MTSO is going to have to mail checks they should do so priority to make up for the delay.
Full time but no work half the time-nm

Part-time MT getting full-time work ??????
TransTech should not be giving out work to PT people on their DAY OFF, or any other time BEFORE a full-time MT has enough work !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, but there is play time and there is work time. sm
You volunteer. Awesome!! As long as you are volunteering during nonwork time that is great or during time that you have scheduled to be off. Again all great!!! We all have to take off with our kids when they are sick. Did it today as I had both at home and took PTO time for it. If you do these things in this manner, no big deal, but I am talking about the ones who constantly do not showw up for work and have excuses as there are more of them than there are of people who actualy take this job seriously.
As far as retirment from the other poster.... please. I am nowhere even close but I can say the downfall of this business is NOT because it is going overseas. It is because we do not have well trained American MTs. I have been here for 18 years. I have watched it go down. It is sad but we can't change it YET!
Pay is always on time, direct deposit, very nice management to work with, and DQS platform, work
load normally busy, but low now because of the summer slow down on my accounts. Sound an issue on some accounts, but not others. Overall, wonderful company.
No PTO for part-time. Not sure if you can work part-time or not since recent rule change. sm
You do pay a deposit for their equipment.
I'm part-time and don't have to work all weekend. I work Tues-Sat.
I've never heard that from Chronicle, of course I didn't see the ad.
I have 4 accounts, doing all work types, and I usually have enough work but this is the slow time of
year so we are scrambling a little for lines. Easy platform, paychecks DD, always on time.
Is it a nice place to work and did you have work all the time. nm

Come to work for me then if you are 100% all the time.

no work down time
I just wanted to point out that Diskriter very recently changed their down time policy. They no longer pay for No Work downtime. They also reduced the pay rate for down time pay due to their technical issues. (This is for a regular Diskriter employee, not a hospital employee.) The good news is that there is almost NEVER no work. That is what makes me happiest about Diskriter. Their pay is not the best, but if you stay focused, the hourly rate is still very good when you are not switching accounts constantly to try to find work. They leave you alone to get your work done, too. They don't pester you constantly.
I would definitely work a time at the new job
before making the decision to give notice at the other one. Believe me, the grass is not always greener on the other side. It will mean a lot of work in the beginning but could save you big time in the end if the job is not what you think it will be.
Same here, run out of work all the time
I am getting ready to go on a vacation but when I get back I am going to ask for more back up accounts! I am relatively new with TT, when you run out of work, do up make up the lost time? I really do not have any other time to make up for lack of work as I have another job. Just curious
They are out of work all the time.s/m
Missing over 30 hours this pay period.
No I do not. Not enough work at the time I was there. sm
However, things may have changed and they may have added a few accounts.
I do know some work was subcontracted from other MTSOs and a lot of it was eScription.
The pay was 9 cpl straight and 4.5 cpl editing. I was there about 2-1/2 years ago.
Sorry I don't have more recent info for you.
Part-time and still never enough work. nm

and the changes that might be coming

PART TIME WORK
Could anyong give me the name of companies that hire part time, provide equipment, and still use dial up? Thanks
About 3 wks ago, there were posts saying they run out of work all the time. nm

Looking for part-time IC work..
Are there any companies out there that have part-time work available and will just leave you alone and let you do the work? I produce client-ready material and really need very little attention :) I already work as an employee with one company and an IC with another. I'm starting to feel uneasy with my current IC position and am just hoping that there is a company out there that will allow me to do the work without feeling the need to micromanage?
Part-time ER work?
Hoping someone can help me out. I work full-time already in acute care and would like to find a flexible part-time job. Benefits aren't important to me since my full-time job takes care of that, so a great line rate is mainly what I'm looking for. I have 5 years of acute care experience, and am mainly wanting ER work for a part-time job.
Any suggestions?
Sounds like the one I work for that just can't seem to get it in there on time for DD. sm
Always an excuse.
How is JLG to work for part time ?
I may be going with them and would like any input, good or bad, on how the company is to work for. I'll only be part time but it's important that I have enough work so I can pay the wonderful creditors that I owe my life to. TIA 
part time work
I picked up some part time work by calling some of the smaller local companies. They often pay better than the large cos and you can almost ways be an IC with them and work very flexible hours. Just a thought!
Why Webmedx? They run out of work all the time. nm
x
Webmedx does NOT run out of work all the time.
Did you work for them? They are an excellent company to work for and FAR better than Medquist!
Awesome to work for. Pay is always on time,
steady work flow, direct deposit every 2 weeks. Very flexible. I would recommend them to anyone.
Pay - 10 to 11 cpl including spaces.
They do pay on time & have lots of work sm
but I found it difficult to make any money there. They use a Word counter, which is definitely short. Some TATs they have are unreasonable. Because of the way work comes in, your work day could be stretched from 6 in the morning to 9 at night. I like to work with a set schedule, so it was not a good fit for me. They may have different platforms now.
Been there for 3 years, pay on time, never without work.
xx
Why is that? I only work part-time, but think sm
it is a great company. The owner is wonderful, QA is great, and pay has not only been on time but has been early. 
Why pay on time if MTs will work for an MTSO..
...withtout a fuss and deliver on time? Of course, this is completely wrong and unethical but how some folks think. Even if you made a fuss, they'd probably just get someone else who made less of a fuss. They will pay on time when 1) they can't get any more qualified MTs to work for them (word gets out), and or 2) paying late starts affecting their bottom line (MTs hit them with late fees) Just IMO...
Running out of work all the time
They send too much of it out of the US, it needs a lot of editing, but they gobble up the jobs and we are left with none.... run out a lot..... Clarity platform
I am there now, and pay is on time with plenty of work nm.

Maybe they work another shift and this is their time off- duh

Low work and looking for part-time
I know how you feel. I am now looking for part-time work.
Anyone work for 2 companies at same time?
I have heard of people doing this, where they are heavy part-time with 2 different companies. First of all, is it even legal? Secondly, how does it work... do you just keep up 1 monitor and bounce back and forth between towers? Finally, does it really help with the lack of work issues or do you tend to be out of work at both places simultaneously. Thanks for the info. Please feel free to email me if needed.
Does MDI pay for your time to prepare to work? I

PART-TIME WORK
I'm been reading through all the companies out there hiring, including the company I work for now, which is unbeliveable.. I'm looking for part-time work to supplement my work with the company I work for now. The work is starting to slow down for us so I wanted to find something part-time. Can anyone suggest a good company to work for? Thanks !
part-time work
I am not sure of your background or experience, but I just started a part-time position with Phoenix Medcom and they are very nice. They do have part-time positions and you are told right up front what you can expect with regards to line count, etc. Everyone is extremely nice, helpful, and organized. I have local accounts and so far this is exactly the supplemental work I was hoping to find.
It has been little or no work for a long time now.
And the only thing I can get are those editing jobs that don't even come close to reimbursing you for the time spent trying to clean up the mess. I think making money at Transcend is a thing of the past. This company is definitely on my list of things to get rid when I do my summer housecleaning.
Only work available is part-time

I have plenty of time because I get my work done
and I'm making 40 K a year and I don't need a pity party. If ever I were to run out of work, I'd get another job. But since I've been in this business for 20+ years, I figured maybe you wanted everyone to say awww poor you!
Everyone is cutting back on the holidays! Who isn't?
You said you can't feed your kids. I said find another job. What's so bad about that?
You people need to toughen up! By the way, I am not the only one that posted for you move on.
Looking for Part-Time Work
I was just looking at this company. I don't know how things work there or any of these companies really because I have only worked for hospitals. Is there any place (including Supercript) that lets you work when you want and for how long you want? I have a full-time MT position at a local hospital and I'm just looking for something that will provide me some extra cash. Any help is greatly appreciated!
I don't think now is a good time to look for work anywhere
over the holidays. On the other hand, people tend to get really ill over the holidays, and unfortunately, mortality rate goes up. It's just the docs are busy, and of course have their minds on their families too and the time they are taking off from work.
In 27 years of transcribing this has always proven true. It may get slow now, after the docs get the notices from medical records they are soon out of compliance, there will be a flurry of reports just about to be over a month old. So please hang in there. And if you need extra money there is always the ability to help in retail. Especially the chains which will be having big sales. They need extra help. Good luck to you!
Is this a bad time to apply for work?
