like their only. No accounts have been lost. I have been there for 3-1/2 years. Same accounts plus double since I started.

I would not say that Keystrokes treats their employees well...
and I doubt that they are over $50 M in revenue. When I was at Keystrokes, they had a few radiology accounts and clinics. This was two years ago. Stranger things have happened - maybe they are bigger than Transcend.
Stable accounts
I have had my own business for 20+ years, small but my own with stable accounts from the day I started to my most recent being with me for almost 6 years. And, I do average above $1000 a week. So call me a liar but will match tax forms with you anyday. A lot of blood, sweat and tears has gone into this. Have 2 IC's that work for me part-time also.
Sorry you are so bitter and not found your place yet. Maybe you need to go out and try to get your own accounts.

Great stable company. SM
Go for it. You wont be disappointed. Very fair company. Pay is great. Owner is great. Pay ALWAYS on time, if not early. No complaints at all.
FC is a great company, very stable, lots of work. sm
The platform is simple and easy to use. You have a choice of transcribing in Word or WP5.1. My only negative is the sound quality. QA is very helpful and responsive. The people are very, very nice. I'm a bit of a perfectionist but still manage to rack up the lines pretty well. Pay is direct deposit, never late, many times early. On a scale of 1-10, I give this company a 9.
I recommend this company to seasoned MTs.
TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
and flexible.
I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
Keystrokes does for a few accounts. nm

Keystrokes PT accounts sm
Hi! We typically assign our PT accounts by location. Our smallest location has about 3 dictators up to our largest location which has about 8 dictators. Discharge summaries are anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes in length and initial evaluations are up to 10 to 11 minutes in length (dictation time). Some of our transcriptionists type on two locations as well, it just depends on the amount of work you are looking for. Ortho experience is also a plus as we can cross-train you on our ortho accounts if that is of interest to you. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Keystrokes accounts
Do you happen to know what areas they are needing help in? I am not too happy with the company I am with now and time to move on....
You are kidding - right? At 2 cpl he treats his staff well!!! nm

I thought she meant to a customer because her
friend lost a customer because she thought Keystrokes charged less.
Unlike you who treats everyone with respect, you mean?
Sometimes it just takes time to find the right fit. I wouldn't buy the first house I saw, and one should not be satisfied with a job until it's one you can actually wake up and feel good about working it. There are a LOT of companies out there who deserve bashing. Maybe you should learn to be more tolerant of others' opinions - we are, after all, all entitled to them.
Keystrokes used to for some clinic accounts nm

Does Keystrokes use a security fob for their accounts? nm

Keystrokes oncology accounts
Has anyone started on the 2 new oncology accounts for Keystrokes? If so, how are they? Do you like the platform? Are you able to get good lines?
TIA
Keystrokes accounts have more than one platform
Every account has a different platform (it depends on what the client wants to use). Some use ExText (which both of mine do), some Meditech, and some are on other platforms that use a C-phone.
Keystrokes has at least a couple of accounts
that use Chartscript. I worked on it for quite a while and loved it. However, I'm not entirely sure if we're hiring at this moment. It wouldn't hurt to ask, though!
Keystrokes has a lot of old MQ accounts and a lot of 500+ bed hospitals. sm
Not sure if this is the one you are thinking of, but it is very heavy ESL, but only about 75% if even that. I do have to say that once you are used to the Hispanic accent, it's a great account, but it does take time to get used to it.
I know they have a few new accounts starting too, but I don't know much about them as I am not looking to move accounts and have more than enough work now!
That is not surprising. Typical for how she treats people.

Bought by SPI which is a bad place and treats employees BAD.
I'd steer clear.
I've been a Verizon customer many years. (sm)
While my job requires having an unlimited long distance calling plan, I had been contemplating making that upgrade to my plan anyway, as I have friends and family scattered throughout the U.S. that I keep in touch with often. So the change has actually been to my benefit, and my F & F enjoy hearing from me more often as well.
I am a Verizon customer. I have unlimited LD about $40 a month. nm

And if find one that treats you like crap, LEAVE

BCBS customer service number sm
Can someone email me with the BCBS customer service number for health insurance through Webmedx? I am thinking of signing on with them but want to ask them a question about coverage first.
Thanks!
For Radiology, try Keystrokes. I know they are hiring on one of my accounts. sm
The hospital just hired KS to do their whole department. I think they will be doing their Med/Surg stuff too.
Vista will not work with Keystrokes accounts
They say right in their ads what operating systems they are compatible with, and they are not compatible with Vista yet. I asked this when I was first hired 6 months ago because I was going to put Vista on my work computer before I started, and they clearly stated that Vista will not work with any of their accounts yet, so I stuck to XP. You were not fired. Your system simply will not work on their accounts. All that you need to do is get a copy of XP somewhere and install that over Vista and you will be all set.
Keystrokes does not, although some accounts have shifts required
I don't know about all the accounts, but my understanding is that no one punches a clock, although some people are more held to shifts than others due to the client needs/requirements.
The best place for radiology is by far Keystrokes. There have a lot of rad accounts and sm
I know of a few more that are starting this week and the next few weeks. This would be a good time to check with them. I have worked pretty much everywhere before KS. I have been with them for 2 years now and have steady work, good pay and love my account! My backup accounts are good too but I never have time to work on them.
Keystrokes does not use Emdat for any accounts. I just verified this. nm

Information on Keystrokes Radiology Accounts
I would like to hear from anyone who WORKS at Keystrokes doing their radiology accounts and how it is going for them; i.e. pay, enough work, do you get paid per line/per report. Thanks so much!
Doesn't Keystrokes have strictly OP accounts?
I thought they posted not too very long ago for a position that was strictly ops. I don't work there so I don't know first-hand, just sorta recall seeing it on the job seeker's board.
Good luck with that search :-)
To All Account Managers or Customer Service Personnel
Why is it when we Transcriptionist send you an e-mail asking asking for a backup account when the work has run out....You don't send a reply.... but as soon as the work builds up and you're out of turn-around-time, we are swamped with e-mails. It would seem common courtesy to send a reply, whether it is a negative response or not. I have experienced this with more than one company.
Just need to vent this morning, as I am out of work. Nothing else to do.
Just curious. What program does Keystrokes use on the ortho accounts?
:-)
Well, I know more than most and its not stable right now
:(
same here, at least it would be stable

Good point. Who do I get on the phone if I have to call customer service
for my credit cards, or software questions, or whatever? I get someone who I can barely communicate with in the freakin Philippines, or wherever. It is so WRONG.
Is all Keystrokes work done on Lanier or Cphone systems? Do they have any 'net accounts? Thx. nm

Ditto, Keystrokes is a wonderful company with wonderful people! I love working for Keystrokes!
I am just not making enough money. They are a great company though, just ask for a back up account.
I'd have to disagree. It is not a stable platform by
If it was such a stable platform, why would technical support have to issue a guesstimate time line as to when the bugs would be worked out? Do people normally tell you that all will be fixed in months when there is nothing to fix?

Found this by using GOOGLE.
Keystrokes accounts all count the expanders as characters printed with spaces, not the abbreviation.
I have checked it, but we use Shorthand. What are you using?
Amphion, AccuPro or Transolutions? who is more stable?....
I don't want to waste my time testing for another crap company. I've been invited to test with all three. FutureNet has no work again this morning... I am SO done with them!! It should not be this hard to make $100/day in this business... even part time. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Ask them to try you on dial-up. It may be slow but if it is stable, it should work. sm
I do know that there are a few versions of Meditech, Chartscript and ExText that do not work with dial-up, but that still leaves a lot of options open! Good luck to you!
good for you; those kinds of companies will never be stable

Satellite is not a stable connection. Not in terms of HIPAA or sm
privacy but in terms of stability of speed and signal. Because the signal waxes and wanes, it can cause disruptions in connection. They might not seem evident when you are surfing the net or checking your bank balance, but a VPN connection such as one that is needed to do transcription for many hospitals needs a solid, stable connection. This connection can be fast or slow, as long as it does not go faster and then slower and then faster and then out and then in. A satellite signal does this constantly, by the second, and it causes disruption in the flow.
Need detailed info on DSG. It is stable work for a high producer? nm

Is that one of the accounts at the PA company?
Just curious...
I think they are a reliable company but some of their accounts are almost 100% ESL and very
difficult. Check which accounts they are looking to hire for and let me know.
Keystrokes has great ortho accounts and a wonderful manager over the ortho work. sm
I have worked with them for 4 years and will never leave unless something drastically changes. I do not post here normally as it seems that there are so many negative people, but this is one I felt I could answer without being attacked.
