to train though, did it at home. At the time they paid by the character...some off the wall formula to get the actual pay, but worked out to around 8 cpl so they said. QA sucked at their job, just didn't have the knowledge I guess. And management...you just don't want to work there!

Wow. I worked for Medifax 15 years go. My office

It didn't when I worked with MQ, but that was a couple of years ago. SM

I'm surprised the main office didn't find a bunch of
What a totally assinine 'gift'. I'll bet the globe was made in India, too.
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.
Actually I work in an office and have for the last 20 years.
I work at home for six months and then go into the office for the other six months out of a year. My point was that you are are judging everyone for saying negative things about different companies. We express our opinions about different companies and try to help others out before they accept employment with them, or dish out a bunch of money for schooling.
If you want positive things about companies, why wasn't your question "what is the best company you have every worked for" and "which school is the best to go to for medical transcription"?
I happen to like my job, enjoy the people that I report to, and wouldn't change it for anything.
Did a doc's office notes for 15 years and never once got sm
anything, no bonus, no gift, no card.
Also, one day found out he was going to start using a speech rec program. They never even told me until last minute and said they would call me if they needed me. Well, they still have not called a year later!!!
How's that for 15 years worth of service?
I worked in an orthopedic office
not that long ago that used Dictaphone and our servers would go down quite a bit. It seemed like at least once a week. So I think it's a Dictaphone problem. As far as the work load, I'm getting pretty disgusted. This is going on at least 3-4 weeks of low to no work. My first thought would be an overhire, but they are still hiring for new accounts - why don't they give some of those new accounts to the MTs that already work there who are out of work. Doesn't make sense to me. I've asked for backup accounts, and keep getting the answer that the work is low everywhere. Starting to worry.
I worked out of the Monrovia office
and was a victim of all the shenanigans. The suits think they can, well, you know, on the MTs. Yep, yep, yep.
I worked for them also and the greatest office staff. .. nm

they are NOT Indian owned - I worked for them in the office
I said they offshore. But THEY ARE NOT Indian owners. They are American owners deep into scientology and the whole L Ron Hubbard thing - not that that makes a difference, but just thought I would throw that in there.
True, but if you worked in an office you could still do all those things
and get paid a decent hourly wage for 8 hours ;) See? I am shocked by many recent posts of MTs stating they type 150 or 175 lph, and at what, 8 or 9 cpl? That's like $12-16 an hour when years ago many of us made $25-30 an hour on average. I am fortunate to still be paid that well but I know it's not the norm. I just don't understand when or why this became acceptable, and just because you can work at home??? and/or can you actually live on those wages in some states???
I worked on site for many years. I've been doing this for 10 years... sm
I've worked on site, at home, for small MTSOs, for nationals, for hospitals. I've been paid per line, per minute, and per hour. I've been an MT and a QA. I have ALWAYS worked weekends and ALWAYS worked nights for the shift differential because MTs can't survive on 6 or 7 cents a line. At least I can't and I type 105 wpm.
I've BEEN dedicated from day 1, sister, so you are barking up the wrong tree.
friend of mine worked in their office in Annapolis - sm
Two of her checks bounced. Owner flies off to India every other week to check on offices in India. His sales force is US, but 90% of work goes to India. Apparently the owner takes care of the India people and sales force first and foremost before he takes care of the US MTs and editors. This was a year ago - I don't know if things have changed/

I didn't know there was one, how long have you worked there? SM
I have been with them about 1 year. I came from MQ.
I never worked for her as I didn't want the 2nd line fee. Sorry. nm

I worked for KS and though I didn't work on the
account I experienced the same situation with them. It doesn't matter what the account was.
I tried Vonage a while back, but I didn't think it worked very well at all and got rid of it.

Olive Oyl, I am pretty sure you worked there before, Why didn't you ask then? Why do you keep c
posing questions in an inflammatory manner about TransTech? If you want to go back, just call them and see if they will rehire you. If not, just leave well enough alone. Transtech has never been anything but fair to me and as the above posted said we are rewarded for doing good work. I don't know who told you that they never give raises but that simply isn't true. My experience has been that if I prove myself as a good, loyal and dedicated MT they have been fair with me. Either go back or go away.

Webmedx didn't about 1-1/2 years ago. Good luck. nm

I was feeling bad that they didn't get back to me with my 35+ years of experience, sm
but if that is the pittance they offer for pay, I'm glad they saved me the trouble of turning them down. Pretty soon, scrubbing toilets will pay more.

I assumed it meant you didn't need years of experience..what does entry level mean to you?

Feel lucky you didn't get a rejection email. I have over 16 years experience
and this is the first test, since the very beginning of my career, that I have not passed. I am stunned. I'm not perfect by any means, but this is the first real rejection. I understood it early in my career, but after all this time, and working the past five years doing acute care for a couple of nationals, I get turned out by this company because I failed the test and they do not even tell you which part. I needed this job, but I guess it's back to the drawing board.

have never gotten a raise. Production incentives????? Never. If you are looking for all the perks, you'd better look somewhere else.

I worked for them about 3 years ago
The people were real sweet, but I couldn't pay my bills. They have a funny pay scale and it changes after 3 months. Wish you luck.
I have worked there for 2+ years sm
and am happy with the company. They supply your computer for free, they help with education, everyone is helpful. There was a slow time for a few months, but it has picked up now. MT work always has slow times from time to time. They have hospital accounts that one can work on if one runs out of work, which they pay more for MTs that can work acute care accounts as well as CMTs.
I have worked for them for 2 years and like it.
They have multiple platforms to work on. They have some difficult accounts, but no more than any other company I have worked for. There is always work available as you have secondary accounts and they provide a list of accounts that need extra help daily. Benefits are good, pay is NEVER late, direct deposit.
I worked for them about 2 years ago as IC sm
and they were really nice people to work for. Paid on time and very flexible, too.
I worked for them a few years ago.
I got my feet wet working for them, and I gained some valuable experience. However, I found that they constantly sent updated notes/templates on how their docs wanted files formatted. This got to be very time consuming after a while as this seemed to be a weekly occurence. Of course, that was a few year ago, so they might have come up with a better system. I also found their pay to be on the low end, and their raises, which you had to put in for, weren't all that great.
I worked for them 3-4 years ago and they were
very, very nice. At the time, it was strictly IC status. Don't know what they pay now but I got 7 cents a line. They had radiology, acute care, ER, clinic notes and cardiology. Pay was always on time. Platform was nice, all done over the internet, use your own PC. Never had problems and tech support was great. I would have stayed but needed fulltime with benefits.
I worked there two years ago
And at that time they still gave you all the equipment and paid for down time if you documented it correctly.
I had an okay experience at Transolutions. The people were really nice. What they said in the other threads about receiving huge thick binders on each account is true though, and I did run out of work a few times but they paid me for it.
I worked for her years ago
and in my many years before and many years since, I have never had a worse experience. Pay was by the gross line and I got my money, but I have never known anyone to be as nasty and mean as this person was to me. This is just my experience, but IMO, you would be wise to avoid any dealings with this company.
Probably should have said, I worked for them about 4 years ago, so they may pay a little better now.

I have worked there for over 3 years and I'm...
 Great people to work for. Pay is very dependable. Work is very consistent. Most of the time there is more work than you can handle. My paycheck is very consistently in the same price range unless I take days off. Great QA people. They work with your schedule. I honestly do not have any complaints about them. I really like working for them.
I have worked as IC for 10 years
and never got - even with had my own hospital accounts - thing is - so many people have access to the report - who can prove what? I also hear terribly expensive unless you get through AAMT
It has been about 5 years since I worked there so
things may be different, but account was 85 to 90% Indian dictators and I had to re-record. Poor dictators and poor quality dictation is a horrible combination. I can't remember what the pay rate was, but it wasn't near enough. They would also call me up to 6 times a day, sometimes just to chat, other times they were just so disorganized it took that many calls to get all the info. I don't remember the name of the platform, but it was not user friendly at all. I worked there less than a month I think.
I worked for them years ago and it took several..sm
phone calls to get my first paycheck. Needless to say, I immediately quit. I don't know if they are different now or not but I would be cautious.
I worked for them but it was probably 5 years ago.
At that time I had to re-record work. The account was about 95% ESL dictators from India (this is what I was told by the company). So rerecording and Indian dictators make for not very good dictation. Their platform was extremely time-consuming and not at all user friendly. I can't remember the pay, but it wasn't enough. The office would also call me up to 6 times a day because they were so disorganized they couldn't think to ask me everything in one call. They sometimes called just to chat. I had only worked a short time and had no relationship with these people, yet they called to chat. The woman I dealt with sounded very blonde.
Things may have changed since then. They advertise for new positions a few times a year and I don't know if that means they retain most of their MTs or possibly have lost accounts, or their hiring for new accounts.
I worked for them 4 years ago
and not sure if I was just very inexperienced at that time or what but I felt the work was tough - never had the same doc twice and heavy ESLs... don't remember the system being cumbersum (sp) or the C-phone stuff - and I always had skads of telephone lines so not sure about that either
I have worked for them for 5 years....
I never experienced a problem with being paid on time. Direct deposit, is always there on the day expected, sometimes the day before. Benefits are nice, plenty of work. I enjoy the atmosphere. Management accessible to the top. A very comfortable place to work...not the usual *corporate* atmosphere. I had plenty enough of that before coming to Breitner. Like I said, very comfortable place to work. I don't dread turning on the computer in the morning, and that means a LOT nowadays.
I also worked there for several years. sm
It was an excellent place to work, but you do have to learn the account. QA is very good, they will not accept sloppiness. I felt it was one of the best companies I have worked for; I learned enough to do editing for another company, which is why I left. It was a very good experience.
When I worked there about 3 years ago, they were in .
