I've been waiting since last week for my check, still not here. Invoice submitted on 12/14. I guess, no pay, no work from me. Blah!

No - it is not always slow! Depends on the company and hospital. I have never been slow this time
Slow time is usually in September when everyone is back to work/school from the summer months.
Been doing this 24 years and never slow this time of year. Actually, I am drowning in work - can't keep up.
If only VWP was the future. It's not. The bad sound quality of VR is the future at this company.
Bad sound quality, technical problems, no expander, full editing, half pay. No thanks. I'm on my way out after 4 years.
Advanced Transcription Techology?
Anyone know anything about this company. They are out of New York. Amy McGaffick, is the owner. Anyone work there?
TTS (Transcription, Techology & Support? Any info please
Would like to know pros and cons of this company. Anyone willing to share your experience. Thanks
Yes, but the only slow time for me...sm
was around the holidays for a couple of weeks, but now they are dictating like crazy, I guess they are taking on a lot of new patients. I still worry about this profession tho....I jsut pray daily that the account i work on does not go to EMR.
It is slow this time of the year EVERY - anybody that has done......sm
transcription for any length of time knows that.
Is this a slow time of year or what?
?
Yes, I am. Things are slow right now, but I have been able to get it every time (sm)
I don't know for sure, but since they are advertising for 44 MTs for the new acct, I'm assuming some are already being hired, and that's why it is slow. But we will be inundated soon, so I can live with it. I like to do more than minimum, but I can manage on the minimum. It will pick up real soon!
How long does this slow time last. nm
:
This is normally a slow time of season
in this field. No one wants to be in the hospital during the holidays, a lot of doctors are out, etc. Also, I think many companies are just overwhelmed with the responses they get to an ad.
Did this for 3 years. No slow time encountered. (nm)
.
Knowing that the only time work is slow is during
is wonderful and I will flex my schedule any time to keep my job at Transtech.
I think work is typically slow this time of year sm
and I am surmising they are not wanting a backlog to build because a lot of MTs are also taking time off for the holidays leaving a skeleton crew on some accounts. I am sure it will all be busier than ever in a week or so. I have been able to get my line counts and then some everyday so far. Everywhere I have ever worked gets a little slow towards the holidays.
Goes to show neither of you have been in the MT buisiness very long - It is always slow this time..
of the year..... nm
It's usually pretty slow this time of the year and TT is no different. The new accounts
they are hiring for will be starting next month and from what I understand they will need to hire more than 120 MTs between now and the end of the year for the four new hospitals, so I am not too worried about it.
Slow time of year = no work. Basically the same. If
x
I would wait it out because it is slow this time of year anways...
then after the holidays, if no better, time to start looking...good luck and hang in there!!!
Litt to no work since Thanksgiving, slow time and overstaffed too????nm

It's neither. It's ALWAYS slow this time of year, between Spring Break and Easter.
By the week after next we'll be drowning in work.
The only time I have ever been slow is during X-mas time...
when most other companies are slow too...but I have never run out
beds full at the 4 hospitals I type in Texas (this is never a slow time)
It is not just a slow time....they lost a huge acct and moved many MTs to other accts.......
nm
always slow this time of year...doctors take extra days off, et cetera.
it will pick back up again soon...
Depends on the account. Work on VR lately has been slow. Just like all companies, we have slow times
Honestly though, I have only had 2-3 times in the past 2 years where it was like the other day...no work... It did pick up later but I just think it's important not to make someone think we're overloaded with work all the time. That would not be fair to them if they end up with high expectations.
I have 4 accounts, doing all work types, and I usually have enough work but this is the slow time of
year so we are scrambling a little for lines. Easy platform, paychecks DD, always on time.
FUTURE.NET
Hi,
Was wondering if anyone know anything about Futurenet and if so..what do you think of them. Thanks..
Future Net
At the risk of being called a spy or whatever, I spent 8 years with MQ. FutureNet is the BEST company I have ever worked for. They sure nipped the cherry pickers in the butts. They have work coming out the eyeballs and if you do your job according to what you promised, you won't be bothered by anyone. Best, best, best company ever.
future net
It sounds like you enjoy working for this company. I am not happy with the company I work for now as most of the dictators are ESL. Are the dictors for FutureNet mostly ESL. Any info you can give me would be helpful. Thanks, D.

Future Net pay
They've NEVER been late to pay me, and I've been there for about 8-1/2 months. Maybe you should find out if your invoice went through okay. I'd contact the office if I were you.
Future Net
Has anyone heard anything about them? I haven't had decent work from them in two weeks or more. Are they going belly up or do they off shore? I need to get serious about them becasue they sure aren't serious about their employees. I don't want to work for ANY company who offshores.
Future Net
Does anyone have any current info on Future Net? Everything in the archives is over a year old. Do they offshore? Thanks in advance!
Future Net
What is the latest on Future Net? Anyone here work or has worked for them?
Future Net
Hello,
I was interviewed by them, took a test over the phone, which really caught me off guard and offered a position. Richland will be one of my sites and I have to do 2 days of training. Hopefully that will be Wed/Thurs or Thurs/Friday. I will be emailing the recruiter this evening as she was out of the office on Friday. They have sent me quite a bit of information (site specifics/format/general helpful info) and I am looking forward to starting. I hope that helps....
Future something
FutureNet maybe?
Future of MT
As a retired MT, who spent over 40 years in the business, I project that within 10 years there will be no such thing as a medical transcriptionist. I would not encourage anyone to get into the business now. Just read the posts and look at the job seeker's board. 2000+ hits on 1 job ad!!!!
Future-Net
Can anyone tell me anything about working for Future-Net? Thanks
Future Net is on the sm
West Coast and has many east coast clients. They need folks who in the east coast time zone. At least that was the way it was a couple years ago. They must be getting more east coast clients. Not a bad place to work.
You should always think about the future
when you have children. You either totally misunderstood, or you don't have kids. BT didn't mean not to think about the present at all, but kids don't get cheaper as they get older, they get more expensive which means you need to think about how you will provide them a secure future. I have raised 6 (only 3 left at home now) and believe me, you think about the future a lot!
Future Net
I searched for posts and found nothing on Future Net since 2007. Anybody worked there recently or employed there now? How is it? Do they have work? Are they flexible? I am an ex yogger and may be in the market for a new job.
Thank you
They still do now, but I don't know what the future holds. NM
xxxxxxx
Can't worry about the future right now...
My mortgage is not due in the future, it is due in the present. I cannot cut all my bills by 40% until Transcend figures it out so I have to make $ to pay my bills now--not later. Anyway--gotta go type for Webmedx, like I said. I have to pull myself away but will be back on later this evening. Good luck to all of you, and I truly wish you the best!!!!
Thanks, I'll try that in the future.nm

Future Net sucks....SM
No direct deposit, no benefits, minimal weekend incentive and now NO WORK. I can't put up with it anymore and I'm out of there......If you are looking for a good job, this is not the one.
What platform does Future Net use?
Is it Itype or something like that? Does Instant Text work with it? Which work Expander works with it?
INMT
I work for Future-Net and they sm
not a part of Spheris at all. I know folks who work for Spheris and even the pay scale is a big joke. Future-Net is the best company I have worked for in m 30 years as an MT.
I love Future-Net! I have been with sm
them since May after leaving a national after 23 years. I have never been treated with such respect for the skills I have. They hav eplenty of work, the platform is not difficult. I am classified part-time which is 500 lines a day/four hours and get no hassels, no pestering phone calls. If they want to ask a question, they e-mail you. I love it! I do a high ESL account but truthfully its not bad and some of the non-ESLs are a whole lot worse than the ESLs, so it balances out.
Hope that helps.
Waiting for Future-Net
About a week ago I received an email from Future-Net stating I had passed all the testing and a recruiter would be contacting me....I am still waiting a week later. Is this normal for them?
TIA
I don't see retirement in my future, unless it's the
:(
Has anyone applied to Future Net sm
in response to their immediate need for MTs? Have you heard anything from them if you have?
Future Net Info
Would appreciate knowing whether Future Net hires for employee status or only IC. Went to their website and unless I'm missing something could find no information on this, or about any benefits for employees. Any info of this nature would be very welcome. Thank you.
Future (something) out of Florida?
I am looking for the name of the company that operates out of Florida. I believe they do ER work and they have the word Future included in their company logo. Thanks so much!
