Looks American but isnt. All MT work done in India. Hosps in IL dont know. Bound to fall.
American owned companies
I have a question hopefully will get some good answers. Are there any strictly American-owned transcription companies still left out there that do not outsource and are not partnered with oversea's companies? I would love to be able to find one. Hopefully they still exist.
Thanks for any help!
Just because main office is in NY does not mean they are not owned by offshore. I don't know if
:P
Webmedx is NOT offshore, nor foreign owned. 100% US. nm

This IS fact in my world. Have worked for offshore owned

If offshore owned, they want to play by their rules, treating MTs like slave labor, much like
:+
American company - They do not offshore
And probably as stable as anything can be these days. They are strictly U.S. Good pay. Let you set your own schedule and there is plenty of work. That doesn't mean their clients will not offshore for a cheaper rate at any given time. Paid training, earn 2 weeks PTO first year, direct deposit, and benefits. Platform is awful but the way they establish templates makes it worth it. QA is great. They encourage you to send reports. I read awful things about them, but found that not to be true at all. They are a very small company (150 MTs) so you can not expect an HR Department or complete organization but the work is steady and I have found them to be supportive. Three tier pay by skill level.
doesn't sound like an American sm
company to me. The ad is worded to differently.
Don't kid yourself, WalMart doesn't do American. sm
They'll have sweat shops all over India, China, etc., to do the work. It's how they do everything else.
Which is less in American $ and doesn't include dues. nm

Because they actively OFFSHORE and sell American MTs down the river?
That's ALL the reason I need NOT to give them a chance.
Glad it's okay for you, it's an individual thing, apparently, but MY skills and my patriotism are NOT FOR SALE.
AT ANY PRICE.
Thanks for your post.
Doesn't sound very American for starters. I think you know where this is headed. nm

That doesn't fly - KS doesn't offshore

Webmedx doesn't offshore (nm)
No, they can NOT go offshore if the client doesn't allow it!
How many times do I have to say it?
If the client/account requires that the work stay here in the US, then the work stays in the US.
Offshore doesn't make any more sense than
The work is being outsourced offshore or is referring to offshore outsourcing. If you're going to be picky about the term, at least be picky about the correct terms.
Transcend Services doesn't offshore....
visit the website at http://www.transcendservices.com
Work for a company that doesn't offshore
Wbx doesn't even send work offshore. nm
.
But in my experience, offshore men do it more and lie about stuff that doesn't matter.

Work for a company that doesn't offshore. Support US MTs.

Doesn't it bother you that they send work offshore? nm

Focus doesn't offshore to India, they are an Indian company
that offshores to the U.S. They have an office front in MA, I think.
Please tell me what company isnt???????
Can you tell me what VR is if it isnt editing?
NM
AMEN... ISNT THIS THE TRUTH..
What a joke they are. Do they think we are stupid enough to accept 6-7 cpl as an IC on top of doing our own taxes etc.. I think..NOT....
are you positive the prefix of your name isnt
something other than ship, but rather ________addict??? LMAO
isnt express scribe free? sm
i had to purchase my own bos and the software/pedal they told me to purchase was $129 (with their discount). they did provide the spellchecker, drug book, and Smartype though, so that was good. thanks for the fyi.
Isnt this the company with intermittent payment

Goes to show ya MQ isnt the only place with problems. SM
Please take no offense, just stating a fact. I hope you do find something that works for you. Higher prices for everything are getting to most everyone.
Wallah isnt even the correct prounciation of "voila".

I understand. It is a shame isnt it. I hope they sleep well at night.
:
Okay.. you have a point.. isnt that the "blind leading the blind." Maybe 1.5 cpl is appropria
THINGS THAT MAKE YA GO HMMMMMMM
Isnt their family medical insurance kind of high. I think that is
why I passed on them previously and they only wanted to pay 7.5 cpl for 12 years of experience.
Girls, hold onto your hats. Say it isnt so...if something is too good to be true..it usually is.
An ad on the job seeker's for 12 cpl...yeah right. I hope that Janis Reed realized she just opened a can of worms and her inbox is going to be flooded. I just still wish I believed in Santa too. Everyone tell me the skinny if your brave enough to apply. I bet no one thought they'd see the day when they would become paranoid about seeing an ad for 12 cpl LOL.. At 6 cpl, I'm disgusted, at 7 cpl, I'm not impressed, at 8 cpl..maybe...if easy clinic account, at 9 cpl, taking a second look, at 10 cpl, you've got my attention, getting a litte skeptical that it isn't all ESL, 11 cpl, Right!!!!, but 12 cpl...NO FLIPPING WAY.. Keep me posted. 
offshore overseas.... not outsource .... correct term is offshore.

This seems to be pro-offshore board. Messages against offshore often just disappear.

Doesn't apply if your OSI account doesn't use Ichart.
It is the Ichart only for OSi where you are cheated.
many owned
they own many...they acquired 24 companies ...
they own dictaphone, escription, dragon, scan soft...
they are huge...
You do know what you just owned up to, right?
You said you went over someone's else's medical records. I could have no contact doing business with my husband's medical office until he put it in writing. When my elderly aunt needed assistance, unable to talk 1:1 with her medical office. I went to her doctor's office, asked them just to listen to me, make notes of what I was saying and they could take it from there to coordinate care for her and that was what was done. I did not have her permission in writing so I as her niece could not do, neither can I take care of my next of kin, that being my husband, without written permission.
MDI in FL is owned by Transcend
.
Employee Owned
Yes, it is absolutely true that they are employee owned, I have worked for them and their office is about 5 miles from me. Truth be told, this is a small company that continues to struggle with a huge turnover and lack of management. Those who have been there for years (people not in the transcription department) have paid dearly for the decline in their stock value over the past several years; it's quite sad.
And you expect us to believe you know anything about TT? First off, it is not owned by a man,
but rather it is owned by two people. Secondly, they have never, not once, cheated me. I know because I checked extensively every single day when I started and *still* check randomly because I have had such bad experienced elsewhere.
The people are nice, they treat me well, the workload is steady, the work is pretty good. Is it perfect? Of course not. It is, though, the best job I have had in 14 years of doing MT'ing at home.
You clearly have some sort of personal problem with Transtech. Go away and wallow in your own misery.
They are Indian owned
Do a search on the Company Board. Many negatives and they are based on India. Can they even post job ads on this board?
Once foreign owned, always foreign owned.

They are Indian owned and run.

Indian owned and run....
It is being overtaken by Indians....used to be a great company - not anymore. Many have left there lately.
They'll just use you to make the Indians' work smell good to the US based clients then kick you to the curb. I wouldn't go there if my life depended on it now!
TT doesn't pay for spaces or ExText doesn't

And so did Carole C. who owned YOG in Monrovia...
until she made the sudden announcement that she had sold!
Wholly owned and run by India. nm

Is Keystrokes owned by a big national? How many MTs do they have? sm
The information I can find seems to be from just a few nay-sayers and cheerleaders and realy offset each other. Anything new? Who are they owned by?
