If you find a company to cross-train in
can you please post the name of the company. I have been wanting to get into radiology. I probably know more than I think I do. However, radiology and medical records transcription were done in separate parts of the hospital, so never got to practice what I learned.
thanks
I love doing pathology, but it is hard to find a position for working at home. Gross pathology is
easy, descriptive typing. Microscopic is a little more difficult, but once you get the terminology down, it goes really quickly. I also found it easy to get lines in with pathology. If you've done acute care, you should not have a problem with the transition, IMHO.
Love, love, love TransTech! Not overhiring, just growing like crazy!

So, why don't they just cross train?? NM

you will feel right at home and love it

I love working at home...
I agree that there are those out there that think being an at-home MT is a piece of cake and anyone can do it and they are sorely mistaken...I have an 8-1/2 year old and a 14 month old and I take great pride knowing that I am able to do my job and take care of my children....I have never used my children as an excuse not to get work done and I don't plan on it...my job as an MT is very important and I do it to the best of my ability....I do wish people would take more pride in their work but we don't all have the same work ethics unfortunately...
Love 'em! They're my MT home (sm)
for the rest of my career I hope. I've been there 2 years and I cannot say enough good about the owners and the way they run the company. Plenty of work, pay never late, and I have never felt like an anonymous number on an employee roster there. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to e me @ ustshelby@hotmail.com and I'll try to help.
I'd love to find something like that too, but
The only jobs I've ever found like thisare in the general and legal transcription field. I work for one of each on a p.r.n. basis. When they get the work they send an email out and see if you are available to take the file, and if you are fine, it not you can decline it.
How would you know? I would love to find out sm
what the owners of the company I work for have. They make it sound like they are struggling, but I find that hard to believe. Is there a place to look it up? Just being curious and a bit nosy!
I would love to find another organization dedicated
to the American MT. I dropped AAMT really quick when I found what they were doing. In one of their news releases they more or less blamed American MTs for the need to go overseas to find members. They were begging for more members because of the loss of money to the organization.
That's what I'm thinking. The ad is intriguing but so vague. Would love to know if anyone find

I love working on Meditech. I find it faster than other programs. It really does sm
depend on the account, the version, your connection, etc. There is not a lot of donated time in my opinion. I type upwards of 3000 lines per day (65 character count, not gross) and only work 8 hours. The spellcheck is medical on the account I am on. I use my Expanders for everything. Most of us on the account I am on do over 1500 lines a day, so maybe different accounts are set up different at the actual hospital. I have never lost a report in the middle, although I read that a lot here. I have been working on it for over 3 years.
to each his own way. too scared, then don't, find your own path. sm
every company has a web site, just sent it to them periodically.
agree, IMEs are great $$, easy reports, miss them, would love to find them

Love this company, love my boss, very informative QA.nm.

Does anyone think 41 is too old to go to nursing school. I love MT but I just would love to be a
nurse. I have such a interist in helping others and the medical world.
Love, love, love DeVenture
Super nice, flexible and just all around nice to work for.
Love, love, love Axolotl
I totally love Axolotl. Just as A-team said, fantastic benefits. Yes, strict schedule, but never ever had a problem getting off when I needed to. I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else.
I only find a site on line that says they train for MT. Is there a job ad up

I would love to know too, I love EXText

Love Bayscribe and love the pay
At 11 cpl I love working for MDI Maryland. Bayscribe is a breeze. The lines build up so quickly. Everything is right there on the page. Sometimes, you have to fill in patient data, but who cares.... you do get paid for it. No holiday or vacation pay as it is an IC position. It beats 8 and 9 cpl any day. IMO
Love, love Archivus
Mind my asking what your line rate is? Do you have to work a schedule? Is their platform good? Anything else?
love/hate MT, mostly love it :)
i've long been dismayed with the direction in which this profession has gone, and i agree with the person who posted that women have accepted substandard wages and/or unfair IC or employment situations. It's very sad to see how, when outsourcing became the norm, women did not adequately negotiate to, you know, pay their bills!!! It seems this has resulted in lots of undercutting and lower line rates for everyone. I see some companies slowly improving and not requiring crazy line counts and hours in exchange for paying into health insurance. i entered this profession as a single female. i married an engineer and was living mighty comfy and cushy and happily doing 4 hours at 11 cpl in the late 90s. didn't have to worry about not having bennies at all. now as a single mom with a young child, i truly struggle. but i do love my work and hold out for my specialty to keep the line count up. still, i see the glaring problems and it's just a shame. if there were an MT union, i'd join in a heartbeat. no time/energy to start one and be some kind of norma rae, though!
Ah, yes, a love/hate thing indeed!
Best to all of you wonderful mts, male and female :)
Anyone find a good home at Softscript?
Any feedback appreciated.
Hmm....working on the holidays, PMS, kids home from school, wanting to find a better job but can'
s
But in the meantime, what are those of us - sm
who live in the United States supposed to do while the market 'corrects' itself, other than get out of MT altogether?
That may be true...but in the meantime..
It is hard to pay bills and hard to log on each day and have the work eaten up. It would be nice to get at least half of what my line committment is supposed to be, but can't even do that. Hope it doesn't take too much longer for things to pick up...I won't be able to pay my bills!
Love it there
Okay, I have read all the posts and have been keeping up with all of this. I wasn't going to say anything, but some of the naysayers are getting a little nasty. I think that Transcend is a very good company. All of their pay rates and incentives, bonuses and benefits are public knowledge on the forum. It would make it very hard for preferrential treatment to go. However, I suppose it could happen. What I don't get is if it is happening to someone, why wouldn't they do something about it instead of putting up with it and complaining to the world about it while they do it?
Also, there are a ton of posts on here about Transcend from this thread that are not nice about the company and I haven't seen MT Stars pull one single post. I guess they aren't as biased as some would claim!
LOVE THEM!
I've been with them for almost 6 months, and they are the best! They truly treat their MTs with respect. I would highly recommend them!
love JLG
I have been an MT a long time and JLG so far has been the best company to work for. Work flow is constant, management is great, and so far, I have not run out of work. If I have my way, I will never go outside the house to work again. I cannot imaging having to drive into town everyday with the price of gas right now!!!!
LOVE MY JOB
I love my job. Best job I have had. People nice to work for, flexible schedule, no nit-picky QA stuff, like "comma in the wrong place". And great pay. RAH RAH RAH...I didn't even have to take any test. Sent them my resume, the called and hired me.
I love it!
"little control freaks with no experience other than raising a few kids" ROFL! Yeah, you have that description down pat. Honestly, with some of the ranting emails we get from team leaders or account supervisors, I'd hate to hear them dealing with their children when they think nobody else is around. OK, so one person on the team did something wrong, so let's scream at everyone!
I love OSi..but I wonder about this, too
nm
MDI-FL...what is it that you love?
I just got hired by this company and am looking forward to getting started. It sounds like a great company to call home and that's just what I'm hoping to do. I really need a fresh start after a bad experience with a few nationals. They seem to have a lot to offer. I would love some input from current employees on what to expect. Is the work volume pretty stable? Platform user-friendly? Easy to make line counts? Are most of the dictators pretty good? Do you they pay every 2 weeks or only on certain dates of the month? Is pay always on time? Have the changes over the years been for the better? Would you say this company is here to stay? Sorry for all the questions; I'm just hoping this is the last MT I'll work for. Any info you can provide on the boards or off the boards would be much appreciated! 
You will love it!

I love....
You are a sick individual. I hardly ever come on these boards anymore because the level of discourse has sunk so low. There is someone else on this board who uses a name similar to mine and we have been mistaken for each other in the past. But, even if you mean to direct your comments to me, it is of no consequence to me because you are obviously ignorant. I have every right to my opinion and to express it. If low IQ people like you misinterpret what I have written, that's the price one pays for expressing oneself.
All I know is that I love the changes!
They are great! I can't wait! Don't care about much else. All of my accounts are on DocQscribe.
Would love to know if
feedback please.
Love OSI
...
Love it here at TH. And no way would they ever do that.
I've had emergencies, and as long as I communicate -- everything is FINE. The staff is nice. The work is decent (ESLs though and some mushy americans but who DOESN'T have those)... You can't beat their benefits and I've never EVER had a late paycheck. You can do worse, trust me.
Same here, love OPs.
xx
I second that! Love it there! nm
No but would love to know how (NM)

Love UST!!!!
I too also love UST. They are very good to work for. Their platform is their own but it is out of Word and extremely easy and you spend most of your time typing and not entering demos, etc. I highly recommend them!!!!!
Would Love to Help Out
Hi. I'm interested in helping out with your account. I work outside the home during the week and do MT on the side, so that would work great. Please post a reply/followup if interested. Thank you.
i love it

I love it!
I have worked for a few different MTSOs. Spheris, by far, is the most professional. They will send you all equipment...down to the mouse pad. Tech support is always available and always helpful. Pay is always on time. Training lasts a week and is very very thorough. After training, you are on guaranted pay for several weeks while you familiarize yourself with your account. You are assigned two accounts up front. If you have more than 2 hours of downtime, you can submit a request for compensation.
There are other MTSOs who pay more, but I earn a more than adequate salary and am very very happy with them. I have a great supervisor. I hope to retire from Spheris.
I love it there...
I have never encountered the problems that you describe. I love my TL and all the people, very friendly all the time
I love it.
I get treated better and make better money. I'm not just some ID number.
I LOVE it! (sm)
After 9 years working for nationals, I'm now working for several services where I don't have to mess with stupid proprietary platforms that interfere with my productivity methods. I take files from the FTP site and upload them within the turn-around time. My small service owners know me, and I know them; they're not just some name on an email. Yes, it does take more planning: I can't just take off when I feel like it because the clients are depending on me, but you know what? If feels much better to be needed. Go for it!
Love to help!
I have been with the company I am currently with for just over 2 years now. About six months ago I began working as a part-time IC for another company as well just to pick up some extra cash. I'm always floating around here somwhere, so never hesitate to ask for help if you need it!
Good luck to you!
