I work at Webmedx

In Reply to: Exactly where is the work - too many complaints of no work from many different co. (sm) - Wondering
There was a short period of time where work was very low while a new account was getting ready to go live and work was being scattered to new MTs (the norm), but now that we have gone live, I never run out of work. I have a primary, secondary, and tertiary account (rarely ever see my tertiary).
I am very happy here and cannot say anything bad about this company. When work is low during the day hours, you just have to accommodate and work a couple hours in the evening or maybe a few hours on your day off at the end of the week, which doesn't bother me. At least the work is there. :)
Webmedx has ONLY domestic MTs. There is no offshoring.

Webmedx - low work ? Can you make up lines when work available (sm)
or do you have to schedule a make up time or just do without the lines?
This is very interesting. I work in QA for Webmedx. There is NO WORK
Why would they be testing for additional editors when there isn't enough work for those of us who work there now!
I've been smelling something fishy here for a long time now, this just confirms that something is going on that they are not being honest about.
I DON'T work for WebMedX. My cpl
is not part of an incentive plan, 10 cpl is my normal pay, 12 cpl for weekends.
Anyone work for Webmedx?
I would like some recent input on this company. Thanks.
I also work for Webmedx sm
and the platform is slow. I am tired of them telling me it is my ISP. I don't believe that. My lines are falling as well. Don't know what to tell you, but I am in the very same boat you are. Good luck. By the way I have been at Webmedx nearly 4 years.

For those that work for Webmedx how did the
computer ship? I am supposed to start training next week and don't have the computer yet. Just wondering if it ships via FedEx, UPS, or some other method. I'll call Monday to double check on it.
No Work At Webmedx!
Don't waste your time.

I work at Webmedx and really like it. The platform is very easy to use. When you are first hired you get a week of training to get used to the platform, account specifics, etc., before you are placed on production pay. The company provides many tools to help you be productive (normals stored in the platform, productivity classes, the ability to search past reports, dictation samples provided, etc.). I was hired right out of school so I know that I started on the bottom of the pay scale. They do offer an incentive program based on total lines per week and pay shift differentials for evenings and weekends. You get a flexible 12-hour window, and the benefits are pretty good compared to what other MTSOs are offering. They are really looking for MTs right now so you would not be sitting around and waiting for them to call you back like the other poster mentioned. I was called back right away after my interview. If you have any other specific questions, feel free to e-mail me.

WebMedX- NO WORK?
Anyone else hired for WebMedx recently only to find absolutely NO WORK available?
WebMedx, for those who run out of work . . .
What shifts are you running out of work on? What work types are running out?
No work at Webmedx
Do not waste your time applying, there is no work. They overhire. I have to struggle to get my hours in.....Too bad cause they are all so darn nice.
Currently, no work at Webmedx. FYI
;(
I work at Webmedx too...
I run out of work on a daily basis. I have 4 accounts and cycle through them all day long if there is work. I so am tired of the double standard of my STM telling me that I need to work a set 8-hour schedule when there is work but who expects me to flex within my 12-hour window when work is low. I don't want to be chained to my computer for 60 hours a week waiting for work... Maybe that's fine with some, but I have a life outside of work and can't just work whenever there happens to be some jobs in my pool.
Work at WebmedX is very low. Many sm
people CANNOT get their lines in even with flexing. There are a couple of accounts that are steady, which the OP must fortunately have, but most are not. Just thought you should know. The Web definitely overhires--has done so consistently in the 3 years I have been there, but work volumes for the last 6 months or so are the worst I've seen yet.
no work at Webmedx
I agree with you Flabbergasted and I also think that our STM's shouldnt troll this board if they do not wish to hear how we feel. The old saying that eavesdroppers always hear ill of themselves really applies here. I have had no work for over a week now. I received a chipper little email telling me that if I was part time or if I HAD A HUSBAND WHO SUPPORTED ME (WTF???) to please flex for the rest of the week! What is this? the 1950's at the Cleaver residence??? Then just for fun our manager goes on an 11 day vacation and we still have NO INFORMATION! Great. Wonderful. And please, please all of you happy little folks out there that are praying us back into higher work volumes, please no need to respond. I know you believe that we can all just click our heels and wish ourselves into a happier work environment. I prefer to actually know what is going on at the facility, even if it means not being employed anymore. The not knowing and waiting around for someone to get back from their vacation to tell us something, is the worst. 
Well, please don't come to Webmedx. Scrounging for work as it is. nm

Why Webmedx? They run out of work all the time. nm

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!
How long you been at Webmedx? I currently work there and
think they are a great company except for slow issues. Where you going?
With Webmedx they do require you to work
a schedule, though often there is no work so you have to flex. Some accounts have extremely tight TAT so it is necessary to work a set schedule, some accounts may allow more flexibility.
ditto, I work at Webmedx too. SM
They really value their people if you do your schedule as promised and are not a slacker like some.
Does work for Webmedx and is frequently
out of work on ER accounts. If you type acute work you may have more than enough and that is great, but the ER side is frequently low or out of work and I do have multiple accounts.
Webmedx Radiology work
Does anyone do radiology transcription for Webmedx? How do you like it? Do you make enough money? Thanks, any info really appreciated.
webmedx getting all sorts of work
Don't quit your job. You might not have he work there
If you work for Webmedx, you are using their computer unless you are an IC. nm

I work for Webmedx and HAVE heard of J&J. sm
Webmedx has brought on ICs from other companies before. All of this info isn't going to reach the MTs. As it is in the rest of the industry is the way it is at Webmedx. We hear things through the grapevine often long after they happen. We're on a need-to-know basis, with the top management thinking that MTs don't need to know these things. Webmedx stinks along with the rest of them. They spread their people thin. They rarely promote from within. They just make people take on more and more duties. The best advice is just to get out of this field.
Webmedx radiology MTs?? How are they to work for and good pay?
TIA....
Webmedx is a good company to work (sm)
for. Good benefits, fair pay. They give you a 12-hour window to get your work done. Be forewarned, though, most of their acute care has a GREAT DEAL of ESL dictators. If ESLs are a problem for you, you might want to consider carefully before accepting a job with them. QA is the absolute best. I think my manager is the greatest, don't know about others.
I work for Webmedx. Always on time, always correct pay.

I work for Webmedx and the communication is poor. sm
The MT managers are okay about answering email. However, questions to upper management go unanswered--or even worse are answered with a defensive attitude that you shouldn't be asking questions. I'm suspicious of any individual or company that gets uncomfortable with questions.
Webmedx is the company I am leaving, so that won't work. sm
It's time to move on.
You work for Webmedx and shor 18 hours? sm
Get another account, check the community page, some accounts have OT on them. The work is there, you just have to flex a bit on different accounts and such.
Webmedx does NOT send work to India.

If/when you run out of work at Webmedx how are you allowed to make up? (nm)
.
I work at Webmedx and am very happy there. Check them out! nm
Try Webmedx. They run low on work, too, sometimes, but overall a more reliable place. NM.
Good luck.
Webmedx hiring - work plentiful? nm
,
Webmedx must be sending work to overflow co's as soon as...sm
regular employees start hitting overtime. The economy has an effect on the workload, I know, but not like this, not during peak flu season. Does anyone know for a fact that they are doing this? TIA
Webmedx is a good place to work and has PT as well as FT. sm
Good luck in your search.
Opinions on Webmedx lack of work.
Have been there for 2 years now. The benefits, pay, etc., are enough to keep you hanging in, but their slow-downs have been consistent and becoming more and more frequent. The new accounts in the last conference call appear to have not materialized for the most part. Still a decent place to work, but a tenuous situation. My STM behaves as if this happens every year everywhere. We all know that is not true.
I work at Webmedx. The slow issues are being worked on. SM
they have the best QA department, the best benefits out there (and affordable), the best bosses. I know the slow issues are a pain but they will be fixed by the solution center. They have fixed many things in the past.
webmedx has plenty of work all the time. The posters who sm
complain only have 1 or 2 accounts and DON'T want more. There is overtime today on 9 different accounts, 4 of which have OT until further notice. Now, does that sound like Webmedx is out of work? I know I work there, have for several years and have NEVER run out of work.
Does Webmedx has a strict schedule or a window to get work done?
I tried searching boards, but too many entries came up. Thanks
I also vote for Webmedx - used to work for the Q, left long ago sm
Have not worked for Transcend or SoftScript so can't judge. I agree with the above poster; pay good, shift diff, PTO, decent bennies. Lots of work. Keep in mind there are two parts of Webmedx - the one on Enterprise platform and ChartMatrix; the ChartMatrix side seems to have more negative reviews.
Webmedx lack of work is NOT part of business as
usual. It is by their design due to constant overhiring. Perhaps they are trying to squeeze the better paid, more experienced MTs out. Maybe then they can raise exec bonuses. Wake up people. This company is the new Q.
You say you work for Webmedx, but in what capacity? MT? Recruiter? Manager? I am guessing not an
x
I worked part-time for Webmedx and I work FT for TransTech. sm
My vote would be for TransTech, although Webmedx is not bad. Since I was only part-time, I did not receive any benefits, but from what I recall, they did seem to have a nice benefit package. My main complaint was that I just never could get my lines per hour up to where they have been at other companies. Normally, I average around 300 lines per hour, but even with totally focusing and typing as fast as I could, I never could get past 250-260 lines per hour at Webmedx. Their incentive pay is based on lines per hour that you type, not total lines per pay period, so it did make a difference in my pay. I also did not like the fact that I had to use their computer. I like using my own computer, and also like the flexibility of being able to load the program on my laptop so if I have to be away from home, I can still work if I need to.
I have seen negative posts about TT, but I have no complaints with them. My line counts are fair. The people in management are absolutely some of the most caring people I have ever met. The work generally is plentiful, and I have a backup account. The incentive tiers are easy to attain, and the benefits are pretty good, I think, and not outlandishly priced.
Obviously, not every company is a good fit for everyone. I hope you find just exactly what is best for you -- good luck!
There's plenty of work at Webmedx - my group of accounts is running OT. SM
Again, why don't you ask your manager for MORE WORK?
Webmedx work pretty low. Typical for this time of year? sm
I'm fairly new, so just wondering. Having come from the evil Q, it makes me nervous. While at the Q and a couple other companies, this is not the time of year I typically ran out of work--Christmas, T-giving, 4th of July, yes, now, no. Thanks.
I'm at Webmedx after 10+ years at MQ. Good company. Plenty of work. SM
Pay is direct deposit and on time. You have a 12-hour window and 35 hours is considered full-time. I cleared QA review in less than a day, and they leave me alone to do my job. Benefits are affordable. I don't need the insurance, but I understand it's pretty good. Don't get much PTO the 1st year, 3 days. If you know you will need to be off ANY time in the first 6 months or so, tell the recruiter. Line rate is fair and you can negotiate. They have a bonus/incentive plan that allows you to earn good money. Seems like no place is great these days, but they are probably as good as it gets. Feel free to E-mail me if I can help you out.
