a little less than a year. It was overall a positive experience, although at the time, I was sufficiently desperate for work that I signed up for full-time work, and after 20+ years of doing MT work, found I just couldn't keep up, and they didn't have any part-time work available. (That was about four years ago, and I'm now working part-time and in the process of applying for disability.) I'd say they're great; just make sure that if you sign up for full-time, you can meet the quota. They do seem to be hiring fairly often.

Absolute Transcription - has anyone ever worked with them?

Peachtree Transcription, LLD - anyone ever worked there?
Just wondered how it is working there? Is it a fair place?
I have a friend looking to work from home, and she's new at this.
I'm telling her to really do her homework and not be afraid to ask around how it has been to work for the different companies before she invests a whole lot of $$$.
One co I went with drove me into bankrupcy before I could get out. OUCH>

MedWrite Transcription... anyone work/worked for this company can give me any info?
I worked for a temp agency for 3 years..LOVED it. Just worked. No counts, no hassels, GREAT pay..
No benefits at the time. I even learned pathology while temping (8 months on that assigment). I loved the variety, the ability to say I'm not available such and such time. I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I didn't need benefits.
A company is ONLY supposed to verify that someone worked there, what dates they worked, whether PT o
and last date worked. It opens everyone up to a lawsuit if more is given, so most companies are told by their attorneys and business advisors to verify only.
No one has a right to a reference, only verification of employment.
It worked! Latest suggestion from DJ's email worked. nm

If I worked a longer day, I just put my regular shift, 3p-11p, or whatever. If I worked sm
an extra day, then I was told to fudge the hours around on the other days so it all came out to 40. I didn't really mind -- have learned not to expect overtime in this profession -- and I was happy to be able to work whenever I needed to get the lines I needed. However, them telling me directly to fudge on my time sheet would seem to be a violation of the wage and hour laws. I suppose it doesn't matter now if they do not even have enough work to make the minimum line count necessary. Several of the companies I thought were golden seem to have gotten a bit tarnished lately … sad.
Glad it worked for you. I have worked for companies
that were more reliable and paid without the delay I had. Maybe you started before they started doing that but it makes no difference. I TOO am a single parent.
You are not trying to argue? Sounds like you not only are trying to argue but you are just waiting for anyone to post anything about the co on here so you can just get out there and respond, which seems to be the way I have always noticed it. It's like all the MTs or whoever that work there are just waiting to respond.
This board is about the good points and bad points about companies. I am telling my experience.
The people were nice people though, but my experience was not a good one and I will not say it was.
I can go a week after the end of payday and even 10days later but that's it. Kids would starve.
Webinar -Evolving Medical Transcription: Technology's impact on traditional transcription process
Hey everyone, check out this link. This is what we are up against. Be sure and note how 3M or whoever is the sponsor of this webinar throws in that dictation and transcription is time-consuming. Nevermind that EMR and VR take more time and money to be successful and it only takes 38 seconds to dictate a returning patient and 2 minutes to dictate a new patient versus 500 clicks on a point and click EMR or the mess VR makes and having to have an Editor come in and clean up the mess. Propaganda that we should know about.

Best company I have ever worked for, and I have worked for a lot!
I can't believe some of the things these people say here, and have to wonder if it just the same person or two bashing. I have been at MDI for four years and I do not have a low workload and I get treated very, very well.
They one I am not sure of. I have always worked FT for them. I have worked both IC and employee
and I always did way over 12,000 a pay peroid. I am sure they are pretty comparative to other companies. You definitely could contact a recruiter by applying if they would answer all of your questions up front. Good luck.
Trying to get info on Transcription-Express(not X-press Transcription)....
Got a call and am scheduled to be hooked on later this week. Does someone need to stop me? TIA
Anyone work for Oak Transcription or Nicholas Transcription- please e-mail me nm

I am looking for a new home and have applied and accepted by one of these companies. Hoping to hear from the other very soon. Can anyone tell me the good/bad of these 2 companies. Soap is out of Michigan and US Transcription is out of Iowa.
Thanks in adance for your help/support.
Do you mean TMT Transcription or Tidewater Medical Transcription sm
known as TMT. Their tactics are to look for you so it sounds like them.
TRS Transcription (Transcription Relief Services)
Please let me know if you work for this company and what you think of them. I am testing right now and hope they are a good company! :)
Thanks :)
Chase transcription/USA transcription
Does anyone work as an indepedent contractor for either of these companies? If so, could you tell me a little bit about them.
Thank you
Don't confuse CC Transcription with C&C Transcription
Please don't confuse CC Transcription with C&C Transcription, they are two totally separate companies. Also C&C Transcription does NOT offer direct deposit.

Worked for both
They both have their pros and cons. MedQuist is poor at communicating with their staff. Keep you in the dark, but they leave you alone and let you work. Spheris, on the other hand micromanages every minute of your time. If you stop to go to the bathroom without signing out, your phone will be ringing within 5 minutes with your supervisor wanting to know where you are. They are much better at communicating and support, though. You just have to pick your poison.
I worked for both MQ and S.
MQ SUCKS!!!! Spheris has better training, no rental fees on equipment, management and trainers who actually know what they're doing, a decent platform, and better pay. Those jerks at MQ threatened via $30 Fed Ex envelope to sue me for the equipment I had already mailed back to them, and I had proof of it with UPS tracking confirmation. And no, I never got fired from there. Besides all that, S isn't involved in any lawsuits and hasn't been delisted from NASDAQ like MQ has.
When I worked at MQ
Their "clinic work" was from Emory University and very, very difficult. It was in their clinics that they did drug studies, cancer research, surgeries, AIDS research with lots of ESL residents and doctors. It isn't like a nor doctor's office "clinic." They don't tell you that when you take the job.
worked for both
cherry picking (MDI) and they have to know what you are doing all day (TSI) "WHERE ARE YOU, WHY AREN'T YOU TYPING?"
OK, I worked for a different TSI.
I don't know about that one. I work for a very small MTSO with fewer than 20 MTs. It's my fit, but I'm not going to name names on the boards.
Worked for both.....
I worked for Spheris a while ago, they were very unprofessional in my opinion, disorganized and really didn't pay well, communication was almost nonexistant. My manager never even introduced herself and just really had a bad attitude in her email, which was her only contact.
I started with OSi about 6 months ago and couldn't be happier. Their platform is very easy to use and highly productive. I have never run out of work, pay is always on time and they are very flexible. I am completely happy with them.
worked for them?

This Worked For Me
You sound like you are in the shape I was in about 5 years ago with my hands. My doctor recommended high doses of Magnesium with smaller doses of Vitamin B6 with it. I took 2600 mg (all at one time) of Magnesium every day with 200 mg of B6. Within 3 days my pain was COMPLETELY gone and I've never had to wear braces again! Of course, I no longer take those incredibly high doses of magnesium daily, but I do stick to about 1000 mg a day with a 100-mg capsule of B6, and I've remained pain-free all this time. Good luck to you!! And by the way, my friend works e-bay as her full-time income and seems to be pretty content with it. :)
Have you worked for them before?
Just wondering if you have worked for them before and know how bad the accounts are. I dont want to get into a bad situation.
who had it when you worked on it?
?
Has anyone ever worked as an MT
Just applied with temp agency who is hiring for MT work. Don't know what to expect. I will be giving up the at-home job to do this job. I think. Just wondering would it be less money and demanding line counts, etc. I think it's close to home.
Has anyone here worked for JLG?
nm
Never worked there. Don't know.
:)
I worked there I IM'd and
I never heard back from them and if I did it was hours after my message got sent. Duno what went on there.
I have worked both FT and IC
at home and currently working SE, but am changing to FT. We need the insurance. Since I want the option of working more extra if I need it, I have obtained a PT job and might change that to IC. I like the option of working more than 40 hours to achieve my financial goals.
I worked for them
Nice company to work for, always pleasant, and the pay was on time. I don't know if there is a website.
I worked for them and every
Had to call and beg for someone to send me something. It got really old. They have a person who patrols here and is well versed in trying to sound like an MT, but you can pick it out a mile away what she has written. And it's not DH. She is a good person. The other one I'm talking about, well, her head turns all the way around when she speaks.
No I do not but everyone I have worked for does it.
It is not limited to one co. They just don't care. There is only one company I know that will not take anyone off until they know their work is at almost 100%
Have worked there for a few
I worked for a ST like that
nm
worked for them for a little while
800 lines minimum per day, 1000 on Saturdays minimum. You can set your own schedule but must stick to it.
who knows, and I worked ........
for them for 2 years.
I worked there
Never got a response back ...all I ever needed was another account because I never, ever had work on my primary. Try sending your 2 weeks notice, lol. You will get a phone call in record time after hitting the send button. I no sooner hit the send button and bam my phone was ringing.
Its a great company to work for, but the communication just really sucks. I never would have minded and would probably still be there if I never had the running out of work issue and being told I need to make my lines when there was only 20 minutes of work in my 5 hour a day schedule.
My advice to you is to KEEP calling, keep e-mailing... or like I said, once you are really fed up, time how long it takes to hear back when you put in your notice and wait for them to ask you whats wrong and let them know it. 
same as one that i worked for; 3.5 also
