If so, how has the work been? I know it's not straight medical transcription but more or less advisory boards with multiple speakers. How is the work? Is it still very difficult? Did anyone on this board go to work for them?

I have also been accepting jobs for them. Most jobs are conferences, interviews, etc... I have received one bad job but most of the time I get good audio. The pay is decent for medical jobs and they do pay in a timely manner.

I have had an offer to do some work for them. Would like to know what kind of TAT they expect and how much work do you get. Is it so much a day, week, etc. Is it done on a template. Thanks for any info.

Their TAT varies by their client and their needs. Basically, what happens is you get a call from them asking you if you are interested in work and they will let you know the type of work, minutes, and TAT that they have and If you are interested you can take it but you can decline if you want. I get anywhere from 1-3 jobs per week, depending on how long the jobs are (some are long). Some clients have their own template and style that they use and you are sent all of that information with the job description. Hope that helps you.
Ubiqus???
Does anyone know anything about Ubiqus?
Ubiqus...Anyone, anyone..
I would like to talk with anyone else who has done work for Ubiqus. I'm trying to decide what I think of them. There is really nothing out there on the message boards, or net in general, that I can find on them.
thanks
Ubiqus goes by many different names - and
they also offshore their work. In fact, they have lost quite a few clients in the past three months because of the quality of the work that is being returned. I work with their sales guy, as well as transcribe for them. But I DEFINITELY do not rely on them to be my bread and butter. I'd be the skinniest Transcriptionist in the world! They definitely do not pay well for pharmaceutical work
Funniest thing - the owners used to have this thing about converting everyone that worked onsite to go into scientology. I just humor them.
Question about Ubiqus
Does anyone here do any work for them? I was wondering when they pay. I have emailed them twice recently with no reply, and now I am wondering what is up. Thanks!
Anyone have information on Ubiqus Reporting
Thanks
Does anyone have any info on Ubiqus Reporting?
Can you work part time for them? How are they to work for? Do they have enough work to go around? Is their pay pretty decent?
TIA!
I've worked for Ubiqus for 2 years now and I get paid every two weeks.
I really enjoy the work because it's advisory board meetings, round table discussions, and big conferences of all fields of medicine. I started with them right after I graduated and I've never done any of the doctor dictation, I like this work better.
I think it depends on experience, account hired for, etc. I was hired at .08 per line sm
but after 90 days went to 0.085 and then 0.09 about 90 days after that. I am now at 0.0925 and have been there a year. I have to point out that the line rate might not be the highest but I can verify my counts, have plenty of work, get paid on time and have a great manager. To me, leaving a bad national and the headaches that went with it was well worth the cut in pay I took. Funny thing is that I took a pretty sizable pay cut but make more money ?!?!
I said "about to be" hired... not yet hired, and ........
considering it just like I would consider any job.... I didn't accept the job yet and wanted to check out the info out there.
MedQuisters, topics from the Company board are being moved to the MedQuist board. MQ posts on
the first page of the Company board will be removed to open up space for other companies to post. Enjoy the new Medquist board set up for you.
Thank you,
Administrator
Are you the same condescending person the word board? I thought this was called "Company Board.&#
x
Didn't you post this on 03/04/06 on both the Company Board and the Hospital/Clinic MT Board?
.
This was moved from main board to company board. Replies don't transfer. nm

Then this is the "Unprofessional" MT board. Pulic board,
x
Curious too!! I am on LOA with them, but would like to know!!
x
Curious?
Which "owner" are we talking about? I've worked there 2 years and never encountered a "moody" person. Matter-of-fact, I don't even know who the owner IS come to think of it?????
I'm curious
So many trashing MQ before they've read the new information. If you're that unhappy why do you stay? Why not leave before the packet arrives? Why not quit kvetching and moaning and go find someone whose practices and pay rates you find satisfactory.
How many of you are MTs with less than "perfect" skills and yet MQ keeps you on? How many of you work the required hours? How many of you do what is expected of YOU as an MT? My guess, having spent many years as an MTSO, is that many of those complaining are the ones not meeting the requirements of being a PROFESSIONAL MT.
Give MQ the benefit of the doubt. I've known this company since its inception in the 1970s and believe me, the packet is a good thing for MTs, for the MT industry, and for PROFESSIONAL transcriptionists who want to continue doing professional work.
I'm also curious if they
hire IC or FTE? Looks like an interesting company. I'd like to know something about them too!
Curious
Why, those 2 last names are partners in OSi
Now I'm curious
I agree DH is a good person, she's the only one I've ever spoken to in the office besides the techs. Curious to know who the swivel head might be. LOL Didn't know they ran out of work, wouldn't bother me once in awhile but if it became consistent....well....
Curious - What is SBC? sm
I have Verizon Freedom. I told them exactly what I would be using it fr and they said no problem, unlimited. I hope they don't call me out on it.
MDI-MD MTs - I'm curious whether you use
another expander? And if you use Bayscribe, do you use the Quick Bar? I keep going back and forth. I have ShortHand and Smartype of my own. I've tried all different combinations of using them and can't seem to find the right combination. What I like about Shorthand is that a box pops up to tell me/remind me what is going to play out when I put in a certain shortcut. The Bayscribe Expander doesn't, unless you are using the Quickbar. But then when I use the Quickbar I have trouble with it expanding stuff I don't intend to expand, especially when I putting in the header stuff. But a plus for Quickbar is that is expands instantaneously and I have found Shorthand to hesitate slightly and sometimes by that time I have gone on typing and it will do weird things like capiltalize a letter in the middle if I have pushed the caps key or whatever as I continue typing.
What works for the rest of you?
just curious, but . . .
Didn't the administrator ask OSi to confirm that they were offshoring before making a decision about banning from the board? Of course we all know they didn't get the truth, but I do think they asked them directly. If a co. is going to put ads on this board, don't they owe it to the adm. to be truthful? And I really think they would be. But my biggest question is why some of you people on here just persist on bullying people when they ask questions. It's ridiculous and childish.
I'm curious about this too. (sm)
I spent some time on the AAMT website and can't find it there either. Were you able to get an answer?. I may call the company tomorrow to ask them again before I make my final decision.
Curious...
as to why you only worked on it for a few days?
Just curious!!
 Does anyone know anything about a company called ATSI (american transcription solutions, inc.) also known as MT World? Just wanted some info on this company (the good, bad, and the ugly). Thanks
Just curious!!
Is the money the only thing that stopped you or was there something else?
To Just Curious
Yes, the subjects are similar and forgive me if this second post bothered you. My first message was directed at how to ensure I could get my first job back within the MT department where I previously worked. In this second message I was questioning whether national employers might hire me if I wasn't accepted back into my department. I was concerned how my two-year lapse working would be received by the national companies as I'm sure the dates will be verified by my employer.
I am curious as well
I have also taken the initial test and will be taking the second portion. Would also like any info anyone may have!
But is that at 4 cpl? Just curious.

I'm curious too!
:)
Curious too
I work for Cymed too, but I'm pretty far out of the loop about anything..just sitting home typing... curious though.
Just curious though...how many hrs PTO
do you get per year and how long before you can start using it. Also, is the PTO and holiday time paid at a flat hourly rate for everyone or based on your average? This is all stuff to compare. Thanks.
Curious
Are you considered an employee or IC with them?
Curious to know...
if the original poster below did indeed report them...or if the previous team lead did as well?
I'm just curious about something sm
What do you have to lose about communicating openly and honestly with your manager? The worst they can say is No, I need you to stay on X accts. If you say look, I'd be more productive on 1 primary - or whatever your magic number- although happy to help with other accounts, maybe they'll say Sure.
All you can do is ask. I asked for 3 primaries and 2 backups at my employer (Webmedx) and my manager was happy to do it for me.
just curious
how many different accounts do you have to work on in that shift to stay busy?
just curious. Who came up with the 40%? nm
Was just curious
I really couldn't care less about the insurance. I was just curious as to how much it was in case I ever do decide to sign up for it. I don't even get the insurance where I work now as I don't need it. I just asked out of sheer curiosity.
curious to know...
how did they change their pay? I used to work for them on an oncology account...stayed for about 1 year. I do like oncology but it was for a teaching facility and had mega ESL dictators.
Just curious
what company is TTS?
just curious
any information on TAIB in Maine.
