Take a look at board policies. nm

There are board posting policies at the top of the page

Company policies
usually state that no political affiliation be displayed in the work place, and I believe that sending political emails is definitely against procedures and protocol of any company. Employees can get fired for promoting personal beliefs in the workplace, but managers and owners can preach religion and push their political beliefs. Double standards ad infinitum.
QA policies
Hi All,
I am working with a company that is in the formation stages and was trying to get input so we could put together a very competitive package for MTs. I know average line rates, etc. but wanted input on experiences anyone has had with regards to QA policies - do companies penalize for bad quality and, if so, how much? Same with turnaround time. The more details you can provide, the better.
Thanks for any feedback!
What policies are those??
New OSI policies
Now in order to be paid for holidays you have to have at least 98% QA score for the previous 6 months. I understand how quality counts but if you are counted off for any moronic thing which is usually the case because there is no consistency whatsoever with OSi QA dept. you will not be paid for holidays within 6 month period. You must also meet minimum line requirements and it doesn't matter if there is no work, low work or PTO. I cannot believe that if there is no work prior to a holiday you won't be paid for the holiday. Just another way to rip off the MTs who are the bread to the butter of this company. Fortunately I have never had a QA problem but I have run out of work on more than one account. This is one more reason I have decided to give OSI a big kick in the behind, BYE BYE OSI. GOOD GRIEF! 
Transtech does not have any policies like this

I have BCBS individual policies for myself and
my last home-living son. When all my children were still at home, they had individual policies that they could take with them.
It was cheaper for me to do buy each of us an individual policy and know that I can keep us insured 100% of the time regardless of whether I changed jobs or not.
The plan I chose for ours has a $5000 major medical deductible but we have not ever had to use hospitalization and I can pay out $5000 one way or another. Office visits are covered 100%. That was my main concern as I wanted the routine items covered. I can handle facing the other big ticket items. I also wanted the lowest premium possible. It was a great bargain for us.
TTS does not change policies, procedures and
don't drop bomb shells constantly like MQ. I work for both and TTS is a reliable MTSO to work for, little hassel and no stress, not to mention actually having a primary to work on. I would rather make 9 cpl and have job security and comfort with TTS than all the stress of MQ! Take the job, you will love it!
Whoa! That's one of the strangest policies I've seen
They make you list 3 places you tried to look up a term? That's just plain nuts. I wonder what their turnover rate is.
Thanks for the info.
I have a question regarding pre-existing and insurance policies if anyone can help me. sm
I haven't had insurance in a long time but my DH is coming up to qualify for insurance in July. It is BC/BS and is $305/mo for he and I with $2000 deductible. I have been having a lot of medical issues lately. I see on the paperwork it asks for proof of insurance for the last 18 months. I don't have any. Anybody know what they will do about pre-existing? I could go to a doc where nothing is documented but at this point I am not sure if it is better for me to search my own policy or get on his given my medical situations. I don't know how the pre-existing things work.
it is NO longer MDI people, it is Transcend policies
The rules change, the people change either from new policies or new staff.
Didn't you read where they send out threats of termination if line count not met YET YET, the MTs don't have the work to GET the line count and they know it, were told that.
I've had private individual policies and you pay a fortunate for bad coverage.
You either get stuck with an awful deductible or a policy which limits coverage. So, that is not always a good option. If you want a decent cheap premium, you get what you pay for.
For decent private individual policies, it is very expensive for a family.
Unless, you have a $5000-7500 deductible and a 50% copay on prescriptions which is bad for us because my son takes medication that costs $160 a month. If we went with a policy equal to what my job provides, the premium is over $1000 a month. With my job, I am paying about $400 a month for family coverage.
she's referring to new management of this board. NM
XOXOX
which company are you referring to then? nm
What company are you referring to?
Thanks. This is not the company to which I was referring.
Are you referring to a specific company? If so, which one. We know these things happen, we need

MedQuisters, topics from the Company board are being moved to the MedQuist board. MQ posts on
the first page of the Company board will be removed to open up space for other companies to post. Enjoy the new Medquist board set up for you.
Thank you,

Didn't you post this on 03/04/06 on both the Company Board and the Hospital/Clinic MT Board?

This was moved from main board to company board. Replies don't transfer. nm

Company board was down also. N/M

Can we NOT do this on the company board?

Isn't this what the company board
The company board allows you to ask questions. I just can't see recruiters having the time to frequent this board and answer questions. Why not just contact the recruiter with questions. You'll get a right from the horse's mouth answer as opposed to people scorn. Everyone is different in their opinion. I've seen people that love Meditech or hate it. I've seen people that love Emdat and others that think it steals lines. So, I'm not so sure an additional board with the expectation that job recruiters will frequent this site all day and night and provide answers (also not knowing if it really is a recruiter) will enhance this site. It is what it is. If you want to ask about a company, the ask away on the company board, that's what it's for. Of course, this is all JMHO. 
BTW: This is on company board because at first
I was going to name the companies, but then decided not to for fear of losing jobs altogether. You know, word gets around, and this MT needs as many jobs as possible right now. So thanks for understanding about not putting on main board, this was meant to be put on company board. Tx
Try the Company Board

This is the company board.
No not a company on this board. sm
I think I know the one you're referring to. This one is a big city hospital about 4 hours away from me so would have to relocate temporarily and then could come home and work. I don't particularly like that aspect of it either and that would cause a hardship too. I think hospitals are more rigid in their schedule requirements too. I know these type of jobs are far and few between and very coveted but I know I would not be happy having to work that shift. Thanks for your responses. I appreciate it more than you know.

Company board is back. NM.

Well thank you, company board police!
before posting anything to this forum in the future.
ask on the board for the unmentionable company, lol
someone there might know
I cannot believe that representatives from any company would come on to this or any other board
and call a poster a liar! My God, that is truly the most unprofessional thing ever. If this person worked for my company, they would be terminated before they could bat an eye! That KS thinks that this is acceptable makes my head hurt. The thing with these boards is that you pretty much have to just ignore what's being said about you. Every single company in this business has, or will have, something bad posted about them at some point. Ignore it and move on. By coming to the board to publically refute the allegations you are just lending credence to the issue and dragging it out. Not to mention looking like a classless, tactless idiot.
It belongs here, on the Company board. (NM)

Question regarding company on job board
There is a company who posted on the job board for the second time. I had applied the last time they were looking for MTs, and I was hired, or I thought I was hired. I did work for her and she was a really nice person who seemed like she wanted to work with me and my schedule. I had actually posted about her when I first started working for her saying how much I liked her. I was paid promptly and we had a lot of email communication. I didn't do much work for her but had told her that I would be available. We communicated back and forth with me telling her I was available for more work, and she said she would contact me to do more work. To make a long story short, I never heard back from her and now I see that she is posting again on the job board. I wish she would have at least told me that she didn't like my work or that I didn't work out for whatever reason, but I never heard a word. I guess my question is do you think I should email her again and ask her if she would still consider me for the position or would you just let it go.
Company Drama and the board
It seems to be that a daily drama has to be played out here. I sure hope things cheer up around here soon. It's getting to be no fun. I am becoming wary that it is not just the MTs causing the drama, but certain places of employment are experiencing growing pains and becoming dramatic. I am an MT who likes working at home to avoid the drama of the office. I am an MT who likes a predictable day, a predictable yet challenging job. For me all this drama is really getting to be a bit much. I don't know about you, but I sure hope that things calm down and a little less anxiety around here. Have a nice weekend. I am because I am signing off this place and will only lurk to see if the drama queen companies and MTs have calmed down. Have a nice weekend folks.
Run a search on the company board...
lots of recent info on Webmedx and MD-IT. Not sure about Hoffman. I've heard a lot of great feedback on Webmedx on this board. Good luck!
Oh, wait. This IS the Company Board.
