I also work for a company in Florida and we're running
low on work, just within the past 10 days. I know it's due to the hurricane though. My main account was in New Orleans and just isn't dictating and won't be for a while, I guess. They didn't dictate each day but when they did send work about 3 times a week, I could work for 2 straight days w/o running out of their work. I type a lot of lines each day and for me and the others on that account, we are now on our secondary and third accounts which takes takes work away from others.
I work for a company in Florida too who gladly pays state taxes because
they know it is the law.
the company that runs 3 to 5 ads a week.

A company in Florida. The bad news
died down and no posts for quite a while, so I thought it got better, but oh, was I wrong.
Is the same company that is in Clearwater, Florida
xxx or is it a different company?
Very small company in Florida.
There are only a handfull of us working for this company and so when other MTs cherrypick, it really affects the rest of us. I am constantly stuck working all the difficult doctors and trying to get the reports from going out of TAT while other MTs cherrypick the good doctors, even though their reports are no where near TAT.
This just started recently so I don't know if it is someone they just hired or not, but I am tired of it already. Since this has started happening, I have seen my pay drop as I can't get the same lines I could before with a mix of doctors. Now I regularly transcribe for the same three docs that no one wants to do and I am losing about $4 an hour. I am so tempted to just start cherrypicking myself, but that is not in my nature. I play by the rules, and I am getting dinged for it. Since my account manager could care less, I am looking elsewhere, which will be hard as I really love this account and the flexibility it provides, but I can't afford the loss in pay.
That/s the Florida company with the person you mentioned. nm

MedScribe in Florida is a good company
MedScribe in Florida is a great place to work, you will find many posts in the archives. There are several other places that call themselves MedScribe but they are not out of Florida. The one in Florida has been around since 1992, I have worked there for 3 years and they pay on time with direct deposit every other week and the insurance is affordable and a good plan.
I believe that the Medscribe out of Florida is a different company than the one out of New Jersey
but I could be wrong... I applied with the one out of New Jersey and there never seems to be anything on here about them, which to me is a good sign. This was for an Dictaphone account also.
Has anyone heard of a small company called SRB in Florida. Curious.

Has anyone ever heard of the transcription company Medical Dictation out of Florida?
Just curious to see if anyone knew anything about this company. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Anyone out of work - MDI-FLORIDA
I can't get any work and management won't even answer emails! Anyone else in this boat?
So does anyone work on the acct that DiskRiter is hiring for now? It's in Florida

Does anyone have info on ATSI in Florida?: Good or bad to work for? thanks! nm

Does MedScribe in Florida do clinic work and/or hire
s
That runs in cycles
Hospital can't find transcriptionists, don't want to pay benefits, don't want to buy the equipment or want to use the space for something that pays and then they outsource. After they outsource for awhile, they don't like the quality of the work, don't like the turnaround time, don't save as much as they thought they would or can't verify the bill and then they bring it back in house. After awhile, they can't find transcriptionists, etc, etc and so forth.
Could you tell me how much your insurance runs for family?
Thanks..
It's all the same thing. Alex that runs MDI-FL also
Even though Larry is in charge, it appears to be by title only because even he defers the final say to Alex. So anything done at Transcend has to have the final stamp of approval of Alex, who also has the final stamp of approval at MDI-FL

Platform runs too slow for my expander
Spell checker you have to provide. Management - I experienced two good team leads, neither of whom are there anymore, other than that, not impressed. Have had situations where what I earned did not match what I was paid. Last team lead I had had a problem with being rude and expecting everone to drop their previously scheduled lives for her, while she was virtually unreachable to us otherwise. They do something every year and can a bunch of editors or MTs, bizarre yearly ritual. Perhaps things will be different now, perhaps not. Good luck either way!
Anyone know the gal who runs Professional Dictation in Alpharetta GA?
I used to work with her way back, and we have lost touch many years ago. She probably would not even remember me, but I've often wondered how she is doing. It's been far too long and too much water under the bridge to try to contact her again, but I was just wondering if anyone knows of her.....
Another law school graduate who studied law through CSI re-runs...

Are we all from the same office. I am from Amherst and they run such a tight TAT time anything runs
us out of work even a doctor coughing a few extra times and we are out of work.
RE:Sure is and the gal out of Nashville that runs it is a rather dishonest person - to boot. nm TNMT
Anyone know what Medware's ins. for family coverage runs. Thinking of applying
Just looking for a company that offers decent insurance for family coverage.
i couldn't take it and the crew that runs it? forgetaboutit. double horrid.
sorry you got screwed... go far far away from them. they dont' deserve you
how do we work it? Easy answer - work for another company. That happened with the company
I was working for. I would wake up at 4 a.m. AND ON THE WEEKENDS TOO because they needed "coverage" supposedly and I would sit until 9:30 or noon without any work. Sorry, but my rent of $1450/month could not be paid with only $57/day. So I got another job and when I got the equipment and everything, then I quit for the other employer.
Must be a small company. I have never talked to the owner of the company I work for. sm
He wouldn't have time. Why would someone talk directly to the MTSO? Most do not know (or care) about the details just the big picture.
Let me know if you pursue this company. I would like to work for a MN company as an employee?
Let me know! Thanks!
Chasing work from company to company - Have any of you ever watched (sm)
5 year olds learning to play soccer? The ball is in play and no matter what the coahes say ALL the kids go running for the ball. Maybe we are like that, masses of us going from company to company in search of work. This company has a new account BOOM here we go. Now it is out. Let's go here.
Yep, I think it is a big game someone is playing with us. Not a particularly funny one either.
What is the best company to go to for IC that is a nice company to work for that has work for you
and also is interested if you want to work part time at some point.
Absolutely not! I work for the best MTSO. I am have been so blessed to work for the small company I
I will share this about the MTSO I work for. I called her late last Wednesday night after Church and told her I was compelled to help out with Hurricaine Katrina in some way and an opportunity arose for a small group from my Church to go to Louisianna this coming week. Would she be able to cover my work. She told me no problem without any hesitation and even donated money for the trip.
And I am sure there are plenty of good companies out there to work for. To compare us to migrant workers is just not right.
Like I said - it depends who you work for. I work for a hospital at home - not a company. nm

I used to work for a company who separated the MTs by work type daily. sm
regret ever leaving that company. we had a max of 4 MTs typing a large training hospital with clinics. i was assigned consults and discharges with consults being my priority. another MT had ops and admits, etc. it worked so much better. we were RARELY out of TAT and each of us were trained on other report types for backup in case someone need to take off. not to mention that we were easily able to learn the ESLs because we got them repeatively enough to learn them, set up templates, etc. much, much more productive for us as MTs, for the company as work flow, and i am sure for the dictator because they got someone who knew them and their dictations well enough to be accurate. i don't understand why large MTSOs cannot comprehend how much more beneficial that would be.
I actually left about a year ago and work for another company that's running out of work. Have to

I so wholeheartedly agree with you. Don't work for KS but work for SS - another company bashed
Works GREAT for me and I love SS. I never really care what the negatives are as I have found they are usually people that can't make their lines, don't work the hours they commit to or just overall do not care!
I work for an all-US company and refuse to work for one that offshores. Best of luck to you. nm

Why would you want to work for a company with no QA? Anyways the only company that comes to mind is
I worked for in the past which is Medquist NJ Radiology.
Work PT for a company and noticed something odd. When I work the day shift I get (sm)
actually fairly good dictators, a couple of toughies, but no more than one would expect. When I do the late afternoon/early evening shift it is like night and day. I get some really crummy dictators and tons of problem/miscoded reports.
They have said that there is no cherry picking able to be done with this program so I just have to wonder if the crappy dictators can't get to the dictate stations until after 4 p.m. or what?
Nuff said, back to work. Thanks for letting me air it out.
I work for a company in FL. I pull my work off their
system in FL, so they do not pay state taxes. I've been there 5 years and they have never paid state tax. Don't know my state tax code, but since they are in a different state can't see how it would apply anyway. The IRS hasn't complained. I increased DH state tax deduction to compensate instead of having to pay quarterly taxes.
I work for a company with lots of work,
I work a second/third shift position and I still run out of work. I asked for a secondary account probably 6 weeks ago and haven't received one yet.
You can call the MTSO or your supervisior, but they really don't care, the work is getting done and that is all that really matters.
