They need to get thier ducks in a row before hiring
I could go on and on about this company, but I wont. Read all of the past posts on this company.
Dont waste your time with these guys, it'll give you more headaches in the long run!
and also, tech people don't have a clue what they are doing when u ask them a question
All they want to do is come into our computer because they know absolutely NOTHING about what they are doing. It is dread each and every contact made with the tech people at TT. Time-consuming training by the MT for the tech people who are salaried and not being paid by the line. J____ was absolutely EXCELLENT and HELPFUL. Another sad situation when he left. Tech not been the same help since then.
Jobs...soooooo easy to get
If you have reasonable experience, you could have 3-4 job offers within a week. I've never seen anything like it than in this industry. If you quit today, you could easily be working by tomorrow.
I love the company -- great people, good tech support, sm
good benefits. The pay could be more, but at least there is a production incentive tier that is not too tough to achieve. Overall, I would say this is probably one of the best places I have ever worked. If the no work situation continues, I guess I will just have to call them and ask for a secondary. Everyone in the office has always been very helpful and supportive. I just get nervous when it is not a holiday or anything and no files are available. That is just my little thing, I guess. I still would not hesitate to recommend the company to anyone.
Hope this helps.
Some on tech support now paranoid. I agree with, don't

This drama NEVER ends! It is SOOOOOO scary, and so boring at the same time!
Now Lee will come on, with an empassioned plea to please call her, and yada, yada, the misunderstandings. This person left, or that person left, or now a new bolt of lightning. It is getting ABSURD to have this regurgitated at least weekly on this board! Same old, same old. I would NEVER work for Keystrokes, and can't imagine anyone falling for this saga and applying. Something is VERY wrong in KS land.
Ohhhhh, sooooooo true -- Transtech tech people absolutely stink anymore since ____ left. He was the
greatest! Hated to hear that he had left. We got some real doozies for tech help now. The MT ends up training them. They are clueless as to what to do when we need help. TRUTH!
They ALWAYS have a BAD attitude in their voice, too -- like we MT's are a bother to them -- thought that is what they get paid for.
I agree. I wonder why people think this will be the end of MQ chiseling them down. This is only the
beginning. More will come. Ever since Philips took over it has been one thing after the other. Do you really think it will stop now. Give me a break. They do these things little by little. Did you ever notice. That way they can be ready when a lot quit. If Amherst is any clue to how things are going to be run throughout MQ I guarantee you there will be a lot of MTs leaving MQ.
LOL, I agree! Some of these people are scary. nm

Agree also. Take care of the people sm
who are already with you before taking care of brand new people.
Have you considered radiology tech or lab tech?
A lot of the credits you have acquired for nursing transfer to both of those programs. Probably a little less stressful.
totally agree - nice people though -nm

Also agree, but I think the rude QA people mentioned are gone. nm

I agree 100%. You people have absolutely no idea
of this person's capacity for selflessness and generosity, to the point of putting herself last in an effort to achieve many goals and in the face of adversities I wouldn't wish on the harshest critics here (although youse guys are tempting me!). If you didn't cut with through her, there is a reason for that and I know her employer cuts to the chase much more deftly than you would be able to withstand so I know she backs this recruiter 100%. They both can run circles around you. You have no idea how tightly knit some MTSOs are and the ones here bad mouthing this person won't stand a chance getting a job in certain places if their lives depended on it.
Go sell crazy somewhere else.
I agree 100%. People should know better, but those of us are who loyal will remain so.
nm
agree - most people only have good things to say about MDI-MD

I agree. I mean I realize you have to have some idea what people are doing
because of the work that has to be done but not to this extent. You are right, I might as well be an employee somewhere. She doesnt hire employees just IC so I expect she feels a need to rule them like that or she has a problem with controlling people. It almost seems like that. There are other vendors on the account so maybe it is greed to keep pushing and pushing to get as much as she can. Who knows.
I would say most here would not agree with you that people from India get all their words right
You must have a very limited amount of people from India you do. I have an onslaught every day I work and most fracture the English language. I am sure probably 99.9% of MTers on here would disagree with that statement.
I agree. I think the reason why people crab about not
just as with many other companies, TT has trouble trying to hire for overnight, 2nd, 3rd shifts, and weekends. People want day, so TT hires them for day. But it is a 24-hour 7 day business and the docs generally dictate in the afternoon or late evening for the work they did that day and for the preadmissions for the next day, or emergencies. A long time ago when I worked in house I realized that working a different shift than everyone else would benefit me pay-wise, and work-wise, and now since I am at home, TT has worked with me to have a great schedule. Why great? I am flexible enough to work when other people are not willing to work, and TT appreciates that so in return they allow me to split my time working so I do have time to be with my family. The MTs who want day and only day, no weekends, etc. I am not blaming them, but that is where the work is eaten up by everyone else not willing to flex. Any company whether IC, SE, or Employee will have the same problem. Sorry such a long note, but I have not run out of work at the odd hours, and I don't believe that I will.
I agree, plus this affects people who don't work for
the state of the transcription industry.
I agree. Its a necessary evil. They exploit people who need insurance.
I work three jobs.. two in transcription and one doing insurance billing for a private physician. It is crazy how much the cost of medicine is and how bad insurance companies are gouging people.
I agree. Have people not learned its always slow after a holiday?!

Agree to point, but people need samples and also ability

I wonder what the quality of the work is like adding all those people to accounts. I agree. They
will lose accounts this way and MTs will move on. No one is going to sit around and make no money and then have QA breathing down your neck when you are thrown into all these accounts. So no one listens in New York. What is the problem with them.
I agree. And black list or no, intelligent people take information
.
I try to be kind and give people the benefit of the doubt, but I have to agree. sm
It all sounds like a bunch of hooey. My ex husband used to tell lies when the truth would have worked better. Perhaps she is related to him.
I cannot believe any MT would not know at least the most important aspects of the BOS. True, with some accounts, you ignore the BOS and do it however the client wants it, but still, you should KNOW the rules.
Maybe I'll just put out a shingle and call myself a lawyer. Of course, I know nothing about the law ... but maybe that shouldn't be a problem.
try transriptiongear.com's tech support. They do gearplayer tech support whereever you bought yo
transcriptiongear.com
I agree also. Keystrokes is a wonderful company with very, very nice and helpful people. I would
like much more work, at least 12,000 lines each pay period.
I kinda agree. I enjoy working at TT, but this kind of "overkill" is why people sm
get tired of us talking so much on here. Every place I have ever worked has always paid early if the pay day fell on a holiday. Granted, they do not have to, and it is a nice and considerate thing to do, but hardly so much so as to make me want to burst into a chorus of Go Tell It On the Mountain. lol
Trans Tech Medical Solutions or Trans Tech Svcs?
Which is the one that everyone is always saying is so good to work for? Trans Tech Medical Solutions or Trans Tech Services out of Iowa? Thanks for any clarity you can provide!!!!
People at TT have been paid! People who haven't well, maybe you did not make count and your check
after insurance deduction. Maybe your bank is holding it. Maybe anything! But we GOT PAID. This is NO LIE. And I am sick of this board. Nothing but disgruntled exemployees arguing with employees who like their job. Ugggg. I am working. BTW: THERE IS WORK (clears throat) remember that? Work?
Keystrokes is wonderful!! They are the nicest people and care 150% about their people!!
Excellent company!!!!
I worked for SS and some people were very RUDE and I am talking about the editing people in some
instances. It ALL depends on the person, as it does with any company. They paid on time and the lady over me was very nice, but boy the person in QA was mean to EVERYONE!! Never seen anything like it before.
Are people trying to scare people or just tell them what is happening. I am not scared just seeing
that things are changing very rapidly and not for the better for me. If I have no work and need multiple accounts everyone else is in the same boat now arent they that have my accounts. That is how people know what is going on.
Maybe due to the people that manage Amherst. I think MQ would be a lot better off finding new people
up there with all the problems you hear about that office. Seems like something is very very wrong there.
I doubt it. There are more happy people than unhappy people sm
at Medquist. I've checked out other companies but I liked MQ the best (I kept working at MQ while testing other companies).
SO right! People who get paid to bring people on-board -sm
to these companies (few, if any, are 100% honest, it seems), are going to be honest and tell you anything that isn't rosy and sugar-coated. Having a good prospective MT walk because the company isn't so great means less green dollars in their bank account every month. They're not going to tell us anything that DOESN'T make them more money.
Med-Tech
I worked there for 2 years and I liked it fine. The company has been going through changes internally and going onto a neew system, so I don't know how it is now. You do have to work in-house until you get up to speed (I think that is still applicable) No problem with getting paid direct deposit every two weeks. Supervisors and QA people are readily available for questions/problems. A very fair and nonabusive QA team Some have not liked the company, but I found them fair and easy to work for, one of the better services I have been involved with. They deal with hospitals and large clinics, no individual practices. You get a variety of work. You do have to start out working evening shifts, I believe....like I said I've been gone for a while, but I hope this helps.
Med-Tech
I tested with Med-Tech a few days ago and I got an E-mail today to contact them regarding my scores. Does anyone know if this is a good company and/or if this is good news? Thanks!

Med-Tech
Are you still working for them? How is it?
tt tech
how is the technical department at transtech? Is it better to have your own computer or are theirs pretty reliable??
Thanks to all in advance. I would appreciate any input.
Med-Tech Help . . . .
Does anyone else work for Med-Tech? I got my first check but not my second and no one in payroll has responed to me as of yet. Do they only pay once a month? Or only cut a check over a certain amount? I'm really tired of fighting for my money with these transcription places. It makes me sick. I work because I have to work -- it's not like it is just a hobby!
re: Med-Tech
They pay on the 1st and the 15th of the month. When did you receive your last paycheck?
MT Tech
Why do they have a flashing "now hiring" sign? Everytime I call in for work the pool is dry!
CPR Tech
Also did a short time with company. Dictaphone needed and second line. Thought platform was easy enough. No training given, jump right in with heavy ESL and super speed MDs (was told ESLs but not told almost every dictator would be one). Rerecording makes ugly MDs even worse. It was assumed experience in all fields. Pay was on time, however.
Med-Tech
Does Med-Tech offshore?
Maybe the tech can get in there and see if
s
T-Tech
I know there has been a lot of discussion about T-Tech on here lately but would like to know if there is anyone there who really likes it and would be willing to e-mail and share their experience. Would like to know about schedule flexibility, software, ESL, etc. Thanks in advance.
Med-Tech
Is there anyone out there with familiar with the company Med-Tech? Any information grealy appreciated.
Ask Tech
There is a word Expander on BeyondTXT. Ask them. I do believe they can include what they call a short-cut which will export your Expanders over. Not exactly sure, but they are really helpful... glad to see we have new MTs.... keep in touch if I can be of help. Im relatively new but would share what knowledge I have. I work on BeyondTXT for 2 months.
