I started at amphion a couple of months ago
and I love it! I stay on the same account and never run out of work. They are BEGGING for overtime, which they do pay extra for. The people are so nice and helpful. I would definitely recommend trying them out. Good luck.
Annudder is right. I used ExText a couple of years ago, and my cable sm
went out and in a pinch I took my computer over to a friend's house, and she had dialup and it was AWFUL .. everything was incredibly slow, from downloading the files in my queue, to anytime I accessed the internet. Of course, dialup compared to the cable or DSL is slow anyway, but it was very time consuming. The only thing I can say was it was better than not working at all.
Good luck! 
Couple of posts down on this board show many leaving Amphion lately. nm

I left Amphion a couple of years ago and never looked back.
It was one of the best moves I ever made.
Amphion uses ExText and is

Amphion uses ExText
I would be more concerned about working for them than the test. There are so many demographics to fill in, that it isn't worth working for them. You cannot make any money. I worked for them for two months and saw it was a losing battle.
Who uses Dictaphone EXText besides OSi and Amphion?
.
Amphion use ExText or does it depend on the account?
Thanks.
Think Amphion uses ExText. TransTech does but has mucho ESLs! nm

Does anyone work for Intellitype? Please give me the ins and outs of what you think of the company. Thanks
IntelliType
They have an opening for their oncology account. I searched archives and almost all the messages were posted in 2004. Could someone please post with current info on this company. Good, bad, ugly????? Much appreciated.

IntelliType
Please, would MTs for this company please let me know how they are to work for...enough work, good people on staff to work with, flexible schedules, good platform, able to make a decent living?????? I have asked several times about this company but never get any response, good or bad. Nothing. Archives here has a few replies from 2004, but nothing recent. Please, would like to hear anything about this company if you have knowledge of them. TIA.
Intellitype
My neighbor works for Intellitype and has been with them for 7 years. She says it's ok. She works on an oncology account. She has 2 gripes - she has been getting 9 cents per line for 7 years and she has to work weekends. She was hired in working Monday through Friday but she found that on Monday there was no work forcing her to work on Saturday or Sunday. She has asked for a raise to no avail. Other than that she says the people are ok at Intellitype. Hope this helps.
INTELLITYPE
...OOps, you're correct, it is the Phillipines they offshore to. Sorry.

Intellitype
They have an ad on this board. Anyone familiar with this company...pros and cons, please.
Thanks
Intellitype
I like them. Tons of work. Platform is decent to work on. Dictators are mostly good. Pay on time every time, accurately.
Do you mean Intellitype?
If you mean Intellitype in California, they are so-so. I know because my neighbor has worked for them for about 7 years. Pay tops at 9 cents with spaces, at least for her, and she is a well-experienced oncology transcripitionist. You can be an Editor for the work they send to the Phillipines, but that is frustrating according to my neighbor - may as well type the whole thing. Pay for that was 4 cents a line. They encourage you to work on weekends, or at least, ask for help on the weekends. When they can get that help, there is not a lot of work on Monday for those logging on.
Intellitype
I know for a fact Rick (the owner) moved central office to Costa Rica. He does or was using a lot of offshore to the Philippines, and perhaps India. I'm not sure about now. I know the move to Costa Rica is real because my neighbor works for Intellitype. That's all I know.
Intellitype
Does anyone work for Intellitype. I'm interviewing with them. I'm hoping to get some info on how they are to work for and what I can expect to make with 13 years experience. Please help!
INTELLITYPE OFFSHORES
...but tries to keep it quiet and asks the American MTs to do the Indian's editing...
Intellitype for Oncology
You would have to be an IC but they are extremely flexible and I know are looking for help on this account. It is for Oncology. The company is great to work for and great people to deal with.
IntelliType info
I would like to find out what platform they use for their oncology account, percentage of ESL dictators, and how the staff is to work with. I have a lot of oncology experience and would like to apply, but thought I would get a little information on this company first. Thanks very much.
IntelliType/Lofin
Their system needs to be upgraded. It's slow. You waste a lot of time waiting for parts of the program to load. There have been technical issues for a long time that just do not seem to get resolved.
As for ESL, lots, same as most accounts. Sound quality is good.
The bonus structure is comical, adds up to next to nothing.
The work tends to run out on weekends and early mornings, especially Monday.
Not sure why she's hiring -- when there hasn't been work for the current MTs. Lots of SOS's, no incentive to go with it.
If you need a steady full time income, look elsewhere. If you can handle not knowing if there will be sufficient work or not, they might be a good match.
Intellitype or Lofin
Any one working for this compnay? Thanks
9cpl and 11 cpl for weekends. Use ExText. My ExText version wasn't compatible with theirs
,
Intellitype good company
I have worked for Intellitype for the last 3 years transcribing radiology. They are a great bunch to work for. Pay is ALWAYS on time! I work on the ExText platform and have immediate access to my line counts at any given time. You as an IC dictate how many lines per day you want to commit to. Each month you fill out a calendar with the amount of lines for each day. If you are taking off a certain day or week you leave that area blank. I'm not sure about the other accounts they have, but radiology is the best, very low ESLs. When I first started with them, I had an acute care account with some ESLs, but once I learned them it was not a problem. My attitude is if you take the time to learn ESL doctors well you will benefit the most and be a better transcriptionist. Good luck!
IntelliType's method of paying????
Could anyone explain to me how IntelliType's tiered method of paying works? I have been offered a job with them but not sure I understand how this works. The recruiter said they pay 8.25 cpl for the first 700 lines, then after that it goes up to 8.50 until you get to 1000, and then up again to whatever amount of lines to 8.75, etc. How do you make any money this way? It's so confusing to me. Their ad states they pay 8-9 cpl, nothing about the tiered payment method. Are you able to make a decent living this way? It just seems very low for IC status.
Thanks for your help.
IntelliType...current employees
Would any current employees please tell me how they like working for IntelliType. I did talk to the recruiter about a job but it seems to me as though their pay rate for IC status is a bit low. What do you think about this? Do you feel you are able to earn a good living with them. This is for their ad regarding hematology/oncology. Do they have enough work? Platform good/bad, etc. Please let me know if you make a decent living. This is very important to me. Thanks so much for your help.
Any recent info on IntelliType.
the good, bad and ugly? TIA
any info on Intellitype would be helpful nm

Current Amphion employee...I'm very happy. The part of Amphion I work with has no faxes, lists,s
minor demographic work..superb QA and feedback. Fellow MTs on same account are more than willing to help and now they also have mentor program. My pay is what they said. They do have different pay for different levels. 
Does Intellitype provide software/hardware?
Thinking of applying but wanted to know what I might need for them. Do they have a line requirement? Thanks!
That ad is for Intellitype if you click on the More Information link, or whatever it is. nm

I've only heard of Intellitype. Never heard of Teletype.

A couple
Lee Perfect I believe and TTS. Try putting your resume up as well. I got a ton of hits off of here and another transcription job board and another job website. Not allowed to give you names of the sites though.
There are a couple of ways....
You can either use Alt+tab and that will switch you toggle you between programs or you can just keep a notebook and write down the acc#. I thought this was going to really hurt my production but after you get use to doing it, it doesn't really seem to be a big deal at all. Good luck!
It took me a couple of weeks...
had to get all those shortcuts in but once you get used to it, it is okay. I always keep track of how many reports I do and I don't look at line count until I do so many. I can get my required line count in 6 hours or less and when I first started it was a lot longer than that. So, it does get better. 
A couple questions
Do they hire part-time? Do you need a C-phone or are they internet based?
Thanks
...couple more questions if you can...
Tested for radiology, but I can do acute care. Can you tell me about the rotating weekends? How many weekends do you actually end up working over about a 3-month period? Does the software have a built-in expander?
Thanks!
I have a couple questions
Do they hire part time? The website mentions Word 2000. Does it have to be Word 2000 or will a newer version work, i.e. Word 2002?
a couple more questions
What is the minimum line count you need with them for part-time and if you need to work outside of your schedule or type earlier/later in the day, how flexible are they with that? Thanks for the info!
Just a couple questions
How is the platform?
Is rigid schedule required for full-time?
Are there production bonuses?
Thank you!
Yup. Same here. Just started a couple
of months ago with promises of good accounts, never run out of work, etc. I really regret going with them. Now looking for something else. What a disappointment! Same thing with Medware in the past. So don't look there either. These companies over-hire and offshore, and this is what happens. Ugh. 
A couple of questions for you...
What do you mean by acquired 3 private accounts through them? They are your accounts? You bill them, collect the money? Or they are small accounts that only you do? Not sure what you meant there.
If you have no benefits, are you an IC? If you are an employee with no benefits, I'd be looking elsewhere. If you're not being paid what an IC would make, you're getting the short end of the stick.
If you are an IC, you'd need to rewrite your contract at the end of the contract period.
If you're an employee, go for it. Ask for what you feel you deserve. If they value what you do enough, they should be able to meet your needs (especially if they're getting away with not paying benefits!).
Best of luck!
I used it a couple of times and liked it. nm

Thanks-couple more questions
This helped some. What is their line count requirement and is it pretty attainable? Also, is 40 hours considered full time or can you work less than that for full time? Again, thanks.
There's only a couple of accounts that way....sm
the majority of them don't have that type of set-up with the client and there's generally plenty of work available between a primary and secondary account to keep you busy.
As far as communication goes, I've received at least 1 e-mail a day on my account advising what the status of it was and any additional information that needed to be passed along. If you use an e-mail service such as hotmail you have to check your junk folder as sometimes your e-mail system will think their valid e-mails are junk mail and filter them out.
A couple reasons
Their VR software isn't as good as eScription, which is what I really like. It doesn't put in any punctuation unless the doctor dictates it. While you train, you get 2 cpl with a max pay between 3 and 4 cpl after training. It sounded way too labor intensive for that pay.
