could swear I have seen recent posts on JLG, but am afraid they must have been deleted. Any current info at all? Anything would be appreciated. Don't want to go from that BIG OLD FRYING PAN into the fire, if you know what I mean!

Any one know anything about Acusis? I searched the archives, sm
but there seems to be no new information since 2007. Their benefit package looks good, but I was wondering about the basic things, pay on time, what type of platform, etc. Any information would be apperciated.

 2005 on Search. Any latest info on pay, platform, benefits, etc.? Sounds like they offer a lot. Good/bad appreciated as always. THANKS!
Any new information on Transolutions. Searched and found nothing new (sm).
There were negative posts in the past about the DOS system but I understand they have a new internet based platform.
Anyone willing to reply here or by E-mail who is working there now? Pay, amount of work, do they match 401?
TIA
Any recent info on TransPortal? I have searched archives
And I haven't really found much. Any recent experience, good or bad, would be great. Thanks!
Would like to have any info on MWPS out of Sterling Heights, Michigan. Searched the archives (sm)
and found nothing about the company. Any information would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Searched archives and cannot find info on MedScript Services, Inc. and Inscribe software...sm
They are also on the web as MedScript Services, Inc. I think that they're based in Naples, Florida. I also believe that they use a platform called INSCRIBE. Any comments on the software or company?
found an answer in the archives!
I found some great posts in the archives, and they really helped. Phoenix MedCom sounds great!
wow - found a website in archives
http://www.meridianhcs.com/
even happier to help ;-)

I would like to know too, found some stuff in archives (sm)
something about outsourcing to India, but I didn't see anything that was particularly current.
By the way, I'm looking at DTS America out of Brentwood, TN, I think?
nm, found several posts in archives saying
it was Magic version.
Found lots in archives. Thanks though!

I would like to hear about them also. I found nothing in archives at all. nm

Found the information in the archives, thanks (sm)
I called the phone number and it answers for Macro-Solutions. I also checked with the BBB and sure enough they have been in business for a long time and have an excellent rating BUT the contact name is different than the name given with the BBB, but that could be because it is the HR person posting the ad. I still think that something is fishy with it, who knows though.
I found Medgarde, but read in the archives...
that they don't pay for spaces and make you pay for their platform. Is this still the case?
Anyone know anything about Charts in Time? Only thing I found in the archives sm
mentioned tons of bad ESLs and not enough work -- not too encouraging. Perhaps that has changed? Anyone working for them currently or know anything new?
Never mind my question, I found the archives on Focus.
What a deal. Are there no good companies anymore?
WEBMEDX - I found fairly favorable things about them in the archives..does anyone
know if they still pay by minutes of transcription rather than per line? I saw that in one past post. Would love to hear from anyone either via e-mail or post here if you work for them and are still happy? Thanks.
Been on it since May 2004
Still struggling. I have never gained back to what I was typing before.
Others have though, so it can be done.
Good luck.
I searched about this and I am sure I saw
this, but forgot where. Does anyone know if Execuscribe supplies their equipment to be used for work? TIA
Searched...
I plugged it into the search bar and searched each board and got no returns.
Info from 2004, sm
I did a search, only info found was from 2004. Could you list the possible 3 companies that does this?
STEDMAN'S 2004 PLUS -HELP
Hello, I need some help loading this program onto windows xp, MS word 2000. The dictionary demo loads and works, but I can't find the spellchecker??? Any suggestions, thanks. 
I worked for them 2004 and here is sm
I was hired to MT. I had little training on the platform they used. I worked as an MT for about a week and they asked me to be a QA at $14 an hour, to also be on-call at least 1 weekend a month for stats (that is 24/7) and to take overnight calls like 1 night a week. I did that.
I had to make an out of state move. I was told to take all the time you need. I thought it would take about 5 days to get back to work and I told the MT manager that. After 2 days, she starts calling all hours of the night and day, on my cellphone, and harasses me about when I will be back. I said 5 days and I need 5 days, which was rushing it anyway.
Guess what? She told my MTs (I also lead a team) that she had fired me, but neglected to tell me. She called each and every one of them asking if I had been hateful. I am never hateful!!!! Especially with my MTs! They deserved my respect and they got it. In the end, they still owe me nearly $600 and have refused to pay me.
Now, couple that with the fact that they had a HUGE teaching hospital in Alabama. About 2 or 3 weeks after she fired me, they lost that account. Furthermore, they would hire ANYONE who had every touched a keyboard. I had to QA that mess and it was an ENORMOUS mess. A cute angina. A cute appendix. A femaloral artery. A cesar's ansection. A right hammered toe. And on and on and on. I was not allowed to complain about the lack of capable MTs, nor ask for anyone to be fired or even to give individual feedback.
I lucked out really. I landed on my feet 3 months later and it has been MUCH better since then. I heard from a gal at that big MT head hunter employment agency (you know who) that she had once had her own company and my SG MT manager was the ONLY MT she had ever had to fire for lack of knowledge and quality, and subsequent insubordination when confronted with errors she refused to correct in subsequent work.
WHAT A MESS. What you all say fits right in with what I know of them.
Sorry. It has to be me. I did exactly what you said and all it has is 2004 and 2005.
Thanks anyway. Maybe someone will still enlighten me, but obviously it is not looking too positive so I probably won't waste my time with them.
Sorry..that's supposed to be "from 2004"

Spheris took over Healthscribe in 2004.
nm
That is what they paid me in 2004 1st shift BUT
Times have changed. I'd do it. I get $16 anytime I QA for a small regional company. I take it. I make double that MTing, which is 90% of my job.
I lost an ER MT job to EMR in late 2004.
Loved that account!
Any info on TransSolutions? Searched, but nothing. nm
nm
Any new info on Med-Tech, searched, but
Benefits, pay, etc.
Oh no! That is not good to hear. I searched
the archives and there were a lot of good things about them. I was considering switching from another well thought of company which is wanting us to work every weekend, just so I would not have to work every weekend. Sounds like this may be a move from the frying pan to the fire! Please, if anyone has any info good or bad post before I or anyone else makes a mistake... Thanks!
Any info on AuBri? I searched
the archives and google, but didn't come up with much. Was thinking of applying for their part-time job, but need some more info first.
Anyone with info on B.I.G.? I searched but could not find! nm
nm
Any new info out there on Medware. I archived and everything is from 2004. nm
Thank you!
Any info on MD-IT out of Colorado? Searched but find nothing. Thanks.nm
nm
If I do that, the secret cameras will know I've searched for it! nm

Precyse! Searched company board forum and
archives, but only found 1 post that they use DQS. Saw their ad for QA position, and it sounds great to me! I have the qualifications for sure, but am nervous about the company itself! Any info? My only desires at this point are honesty/integrity, and a safe future! Not too much to ask for! Can anyone share any info on Precyse? Thanks so much!
current info on jester's touch? i searched
archives and the only posts are from 2004 and 2003. thx!
Net search shows they had a job ad here in Dec. 2004. Their website is www.pdajc.com. Good

Wall Street Journal article, October 2004
A friend sent this to me. UCSF heard from an overseas MT who had not been paid that if she did not receive the $$ owed her she would publish the reports on the internet. There was a lot of followup to this which I will not go into here, but why wouldn't this sort of thing still be possible.
Later that year there was a report of a group of MTs in Bangladesh who tried to force a change in their local management by threatening to make transcribed documents public.
After that California was supposedly looking at a bill to disallow sending confidential medical reports overseas as they are not bound by HIPPA. Never heard what came of that.
I still tell these stories to anyone considering sending work abroad. I just wish some of them overseas would be stupid enough to actually pull a few stunts like that and then see how much work we lose.
People seem to forget it was Pres. Bush pushed EMR in 2004. sm
Try googling 2 words: EMR Bush.
Found this article. Hope links are allowed.

Any current info on Med-Scribe? They're hiring and all I can find on here is from 2004. Thx!

Did search on Futurenet and got mostly 2004 and 2005 stuff. Anybody with newer info? nm
This is what I have found while looking for the right job - sm
I have one child still at home who will be going off to Kindergarten in a couple of years. I do not want to put my child in day care, so I need a job that provides an adequate window to be able to finish my work. I do 1000 lines per day, 5 days a week. I know that isn't a lot, but with a child at home with me during the day, that's the most I can do at this time. I have yet to find a company who will allow you to have employee status and flexibility with your schedule. Yes, you can generally pick your own schedule with most companies, but I just cannot say that I will be able to finish my work within an 8-hour period of time. That is why I am looking into FN at this time.
To each his own. I have found in all my
years of working at home that what one MT thinks is great, another thinks is not so great. The opinions of the company that I stated are my experience. It could be mine only. I am only trying to help.
Found it! (nm)
