pretending to be MTs... Too funny.
MTs aren't going to post cheerleading posts happy about having their pay cut for the same amount of time/work... It is very time-consuming to correct the mess VR cranks out.

I am just an MT, certainly not management, and have posted before (sm)
saying how I have finally found an ethical company to work for after changing jobs multiple times because other companies were not paying me fairly, stealing my 401(k) money they were withholding, etc. I had only been at DeV for 2 months and asked for time off to go see my mother, 900 miles away in a nursing home and under hospice care. I knew I had not been there long enough to have earned the time off, but asked if I could take the time off without pay. The answer was something along the lines of I understand, we can cover this for you, please take whatever time you need, just keep me informed. I honestly think DeVenture is an honest, ethical company who values their employees and recognizes us as individuals with obligations unique to each of us. I have no idea what the circumstances were that prompted this law suit, can only relate my personal experiences.
Feel free to e-mail me, I'd be glad to talk to anyone who wants to know more from my perspective.
Yeah. It's obviously posted by management, lol.

TT Management comes here and posts
As you can see from her post. They are trying to sweet talk us into putting more money in their pockets with VR. A billion lines per hour you'll make! Millions you'll make!!! Come on, you believe 'em, doncha ya??
Sorry TT Management: The MTs are not as stupid and naive as you obviously think we are. TT used to be a good company to work for. Now, only good for MANAGEMENT.
Old posts said easy to work for, but your pay would never go over 7 or 8 cpl depending on

It's EASY to search recent posts (sm)
using Google site search.
Ex: chase site:mtstars.com revealed all the posts written about this transcriptoin company, most recent first.
Yep and only management posts CRAP
about VR being great for the MT! You'll make a million lines per hours! You'll be wealthy beyond Donald Trump! You'll feel like you won the lottery!
OK, now go back to counting your money. Only a few of the more naive and ignorant believe your claims, so you can save your breath--or your typing fingers. Hey, I know, why don't you, Management, try living on the money that VR brings in? Then come back and post here. Until then, like I said, go back to counting your money.
The only thing I don't agree with is that the posts from management
would keep me from there. I think they are small enough to be personal. I think they will learn as they grow though to not react so strongly that this too shall pass. I know that a friend of mine who works there is a lead Transcriptionist now and is learning to be a manager as she goes, so not all of them are bought like at MQ and Spheris and the like. I think they are all transcriptionists who have been promoted from what I understand which might explain a lot of why they feel they have to defend the company.
Just read the posts on this board from SS Management
It's obvious NOTHING HAS CHANGED AT ALL! Rude, stupid people running this company. That's why they have such a high turnover. They can't keep anyone! Hello! I mean, look, this is a good example of how dense the mgt of SS is: They post awful, rude, childish CRAP on this board and then try to tell you, oh, things have changed, it's not like that anymore. Yeah, right...
I just love it when management posts on this board.
either since there is no work. LOL too funny.
do not believe anything the lying management posts. They are insane and ridiculous.

Reading some of these posts, I see management is out in full force
trying to run damage control. No MT who just got her pay cut is going to say, yay, who cares if I'm going to be making less money, this great company is still paying slightly more than some of those fly-by-night companies, and I luv my new paycut....
Look down a few posts. Just posted today

Anyone know of a company, easy clinic work, easy Word format, dependable pay? Help!

I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.
Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)

The Rates Are Posted Here and Posted Below
The service owner fees are posted in a UnionNow post (below), but here they are again:
SERVICE OWNERS CHARGE:
$0.115 - $0.25 per line for full transcription of acute care on 24/7 accounts
$2.75 - $7.65 per report for full transcription of pathology, lab, specialty operative notes, plain film and interventional radiology
$0.097 - $0.125 per line for VR editing
OF THAT MONEY, MTs ARE RECEIVING
$0.85 - $1.25 per report full transcription
$0.06 - $0.115 per line full transcription
$0.035 - $0.06 per line for VR editing
AS OUR PRODUCTION BRINGS THE MONEY IN, WE DESERVE A LARGER CHUNK OF THE PROFITS - OFFICE STAFF CAN BE TRIMMED INSTEAD OF THE PRODUCTION STAFF. IF A RECEPTIONIST MISSES A DAY OF WORK, ANYONE CAN ANSWER THE PHONE IN HER PLACE. IF AN MT NEEDS A DAY OR SO OFF, PATIENT CARE CAN SUFFER BECAUSE AN INTEGRAL MEMBER OF A HEALTH CARE TEAM IS UNAVAILABLE.
WE ARE STILL EXTREMELY IMPORTANT IN THE HEALTH CARE PICTURE. DO NOT SELL YOURSELVES SHORT.
IF YOU ARE AGAINST UNIONS OR INITIATIVES, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY RESPECT YOUR OPINION, BUT BEG THAT YOU RESEARCH, SPEAK TO OTHERS, EDUCATE YOURSELVES ABOUT WORKERS UNITED. WE HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE HERE; THEY'VE TAKEN ALMOST EVERYTHING FROM US.
WE PROPOSE:
$1.25 PER REPORT TRANSCRIBED IN THE U.S.A. BY A U.S. MTs
$0.10 PER LINE TRANSCRIBED IN THE U.S.A. BY A U.S. MTs
$0.075 PER VR LINE EDITED IN THE U.S.A. BY U.S. MTs
A few posts about them about 3/4 of the way down this page between the DSG & Diskriter posts. nm

It's just not easy to do for most of us. nm

Does anyone else think it is just as easy to go to a different
company as it is to learn new account at the same time you are learning a new platform that has a lot of problems?
easy to put an end to it all
Doesn't matter if QT says they are not closing or not selling, it is all in what the account decides what will force the hand. You have one big account, lose one big account, you do the math.
It's VERY easy
All that you do is hit F6 and it brings up all of the old report. As far as I can tell, they go back about a year.
easy as pie
Super easy and I find it super fast. Check out www.escription.com
I cannot tell you how easy it is to get someone's SS#
and have a grand time with it! Try explaining it to the hospitals that want to outsource to certain national companies that don't do a background check on employees or that the threat to take SS# just by when doctors dictate them is easy - can you imagine how easy it is for the offshore companies to do it. If I can do it in the states working for a national company, imagine what the offshore companies can do!
EASY
I was wondering the same thing. The ad said It is easier to edit than type, and they pay hourly. I don't like their choice of words though. Neither is EASY. It all takes skill. I, too, am curious--Who is TMMG?
Its not easy being a
You're right the girl probably didn't have a clue of how poorly she was doing and thats not playing fair. However, training is not easy. Companies don't want to lose people, especially if they're not paying them much, soooo you're stuck being positive positive positive even when the work is horrible, and people tend to get offended at the least little bit of feedback. Its a bit of a squishy position and at times the person training has to go to great lengths to justify their own position. Not easy I assure you. I for one was told I was sending too much feedback, apparently learning how to do things right was not at the top of these MTs list. You cannot completely blame the trainer, but management who lets the MT call the shots.
Easy. NM

Not the OP, ...is it easy to set up?
Do you have to buy anything other than the router? I have comcast cable and already have a router...just don't know what to do with it.
Easy.
You need to go in and put in the BKSP command where the number goes and back the hyphen right up to the command you then you eliminate the 105 painful times you need to enter!! A snap!

It's not as easy to do that now as it used to be sm
If you're SE or IC, you can do that, but with most companies going to employee, MT can only work 40 hours and if one can't count on working extra, which goes into overtime and not always offered, it makes having just one job not feasible if MT wants to make X amount of dollars in as much time as it takes her/him.
I wish I could just do one job with OT when offered, but I really need the security of having the PT to get what I need to make ends meet.
I'm sorry. I must have it easy there, which SM
is reason I, unfortunately, can't leave.
I really feel badly for you. Sadly, that's why company has the reputatation it does. They are more concerned about happiness of offshore MTs.
Easy. Take a job anywhere. It will be prn because
there will be no work. They will want you to type prn but demand you live up to a line count and schedule they will not promise work to fill, thus it ends up prn for you, and great for them. Sorry, just the facts. Imagine a company that was honest and actually hired for prn. There's never be anything comparing what it is like for full time or part time these days. JIMHO
Very easy---
go into program files, find ShortHand file, click on that, that is where all the things are. Go to the SPF files, find which one you have your abbreviations in, you had to have named it something (you can check the opened shorthand and look at the tab on the bottom that shows what you use for your abbeviations), copy that file (I use a fast whatchamacall it that you plug in) or you can copy in a separate file until you can copy it to a removeable file, just paste it somewhere, then when you want to copy it to another computer with the Shorthand program on it, just paste it in the shorthand file (like where you copied it from on the other computer). When you open up the Shorthand file, you will have to click on the new shorthand files and add it so it will put a tab at the bottom.
So easy to say that when not you
The poster said she made good money and needed the job. It is the lady's job and she calls the shots. Sure the person can quit and cut off her nose to spite her face. That is just business.
Thats easy for you to say
Thats easy for you to say when you are getting offered 8 and 9 cpl. I am just testing and testing and testing and testing and not even getting offered anything. I need work and if I am offered 7 cpl typing for 1 or 2 dictators I will take it because you can still make money at that. I don't mind working 2 jobs because that way you always have something to type.
It is easy once you are used to it. I love it! xx

Test Was Easy
BUT if you don't have years of experience you won't be hired by them.
Easy tests
Nope, you can't go by that. In fact, you can't go by anything but your own experience. Make your wisest decision. Use your gut instincts. That's all any of us can do.
It might help others to answer if you named the companies, but I understand why you can't.
Good luck. :)
Yes, for 2 weeks, which is easy on the
That works out to be 200 lines an hour. What type of work do you do?
Easy to spot
 lol :)
not easy to find
find it after clicking on company board, as it's not listed after you click forums and only after you click on company board...
I knew it was too easy sm
Probably too good to be true but I will try to straddle both jobs. My current one is a stinko place, lotsa junk dictation, no $$, so T seemed like a big step in the right direction. However, I got it too easy. My experience with both MT and nonMT jobs is if you get them too easily, there's usually a reason why -- nobody else wants it.
So easy to say, so hard to do. If you were going to do
it, you would have already. It is so much easier to bash companies and service owners than to do it yourself. Just like armchair quarterbacks. If you had the time and talent to do it better yourself, wouldn't you?
Yes, it was pretty easy. nm

Easy platform...sm
Basically, I have several accounts that I work on, but for the most part all that you have to enter in is the patient's name, DOB, DOS...the rest is usually filled in for you, click Enter or something like that, one button, and then it sends you to the report...when you are finished with that, you just click one button, check mark for QA or not, and send it through..SIMPLE and GREAT platform...not difficult at all...
You know, it's not always easy to get insurance on your own. nm

It's easy to learn...
Not sure what kind of advice you're looking for... I don't think you should be freaking out. It's the best platform I've ever used and it's very easy to learn. I'm sure this isn't giving you anything helpful, but not sure what you want to know.
Is the program they use easy? sm
i think i read somewhere where it was word based, was it easy to learn?? what average daily line count can you get? thanks, sorry for the questions.
It is fairly easy to use
I have been using MP Count for a while now and I believe that MP Tools will be just as easy to use. Also, if you have any issues or questions, Vann Joe is always readily available to help you. (He is the person who developed the software and I believe that Emmaus is his company). Anyway, do not be afraid of throwing your $ away, because I know from experience that Vann Joe will be able to help if you have any questions regarding the new product.
