Looking for a reputable company, preferably to do op reports..sm

I am currently with a company with whom I have been happy for the last few years but things seem to be changing. My account has been overstaffed and I have spent the last 45 minutes trying to dial in to my account but all lines are busy. Starting out the day with this level of frustration is not healthy and for this reason along with others I may need to make a change. Can anyone give me any ideas of stable companies with plenty of work and good pay that do not require weekend work? I have 30 years acute care experience and prefer op notes but am open to clinic work too. I try to do 1800-2000 lines a day, care about my work product and am a very reliable employee. I simply need to make some steady money! Thanks for any help or advice offered.

No reputable company would allow
any MT to pick and choose the work they want to do. The company I work for would not tolerate that, which is why they are so popular. Work is assigned according to TAT unless there is a stat due. Army Brat must work for a terrible company if she/he is so paranoid about who gets what work.
no reputable company should ever sm
have an incident where there is a bounced check! Lots of places have financial problems but they don't let their payroll bounce. Sad state of affairs I'd say!
I didn't say the company was reputable. (sm)
It's one of the larger companies that used to be the apple of MTStars' eye until it started to offshore. They would vigorously defend this company, and now -- nothing.
It's a big company, so I guess in some people's eyes, it's reputable. When it was offered to me, I thought it was disgusting, and to me, the company lost all credibility.
They hired another person to work on my account (a former employee of the customer), and when they told me I typed too fast for the account and that the new person wasn't getting many jobs, I finally had it and quit, never looked back and never regretted it.
I found a much better, much smaller company that I believe wouldn't tolerate this kind of behavior. Bigger isn't always better.
Has anyone heard of SribeRight and is it a reputable company that will pay on time and have a lot of
work with benefits
I think you would be doing good to find a reputable company, much less by putting qualifiers

There is also the reputable company out of No. Carolina that's NOT the United Tran with the train

Reputable company w/ platform compatible w/ InstanText/Shorthand
Am heavily dependent on sophisticated Expanders that incorporate code script, like ShortHand and InstanText. Can anyone recommend reputable employers whose platforms are compatible with these programs?
Word ZPressed or Keystrokes? Any info on either company? I have heard both are reputable
thanks
At least $16/hour, but preferably $19-$20. nm

I will take one with a skirt, preferably spring colors. nm

Companies that require ONLY lines - not certain hours, preferably internet sm
based and part time. TIA
Reports for any individual company. nm
Would a current TransHealth MT (preferably a happy one LOL) pls email me to answer some questions?
 email above
If it's Apex, steer clear. I was on it with another company. It eats reports. Too many screens. s
The spellchecker doesn't work and it was REALLY hard to get a decent line count with it. It's also not compatible with too many expanders.
where they 35 comparable reports - or 35 short and 35 long reports? nm

are there any companies who are reputable, mean what they say, do what they say, and
Are there any honest, reliable, trustworthy, respectable companies out there that put their money where their mouths are? I have been very let down twice now by two separate nationals, and am totally disheartened. I do a good job and that is all I want to do. What I expect from a company is for them to do what they say they will ... if they are going to train, then train ... if they are going to say they respond to your calls, respond ... if they say you will have returned reports edited and errors pointed out, send the edited reports with the corrections ... if they say they will give you a supervisor/lead/manager, present that person....if they say their tech department will help, does it always take 3-5 hours to solve a problem?
Honesty!! That is all I am asking for. Any companies out there that anyone would really say know what INTEGRITY means? If so, please, please let me know. :( Is it even worth it to have hope after struggling to polish skills via these new online schools, as I did? Is there anyone to trust out there? TRUST?
No for ethical and reputable
MT companies, it won't! When you uses something like autokeys or autocorrect, I really do not know how they are going to figure out what keys you actually hit to produce a word, phrase or sentence.
They are reputable. Pay always on time.
4 cpl editing, 8-9 cpl transcribing. Decent company. They are bringing all of their work back to USA, were offshoring to India, but that became a huge problem. Now, they are in the process of trying to bring it all back. Pretty upfront and honest people.
Are there any reputable companies
It is sad to me to see someone covering for the MTSOs. They know they can get away with anything because they can get somebody else in five minutes or less. As long as they have desperate fools willing to work and put up with them, things will never change.
Reputable MT Companies???sm
Does anyone know any reputable MT companies to work for? I have a prospect on a local group here, but just waiting on them to get ready to hire for the position. I was promised I would be the first one called when the position comes available. I am afraid to apply for something online because I don't want to get in a situation that is just as bad as MQ or worse.
I also need flexibility because I have a 4-month-old infant and have to work my schedule around my husband's full-time job. So, if anyone knows of any good places to work, drop me a line and let me know.
Thanks 
ATSI/MT World - Are they reputable?

Find a reputable school
Hi, Shelley.
I am so sorry you got pulled in by TranSCAM. I agree with the other poster's info on contacting a lawyer and the BBB about them.
There really is no way to do OJT in this career anymore. The best way to get into transcription is through studying with a reputable school such as CareerStep. There are others....look through the posts on here to find schools that graduates recommend. Best of luck to you!
I know of 2 MTs from reputable schools who started w/o the 2 year exp. nm

Find a reputable financial investment guy
And open a ROTH IRA.
Typing ER reports and radiologogy reports
are completely different with regards to pay. For typing regular reports, that is a very fine line rate. For typing radiology reports, it would be horrid.
ER Reports
Can you make a good living typing only ER reports with a national company? Do any companies hire you just for ER reports? Thanks.
Maybe that is why they only let you do a few reports a day but

I believe they will get them to do op reports, in which

I luv Op reports
:)
ER reports
Was there a posting on these boards recently about doing mainly ER reports? What was the name of the company? I cannot find it now. Thanks.
Are the reports
in the accounts worse than what is on the TH test when you apply?
I have had years of proofing horrid accounts. :)
My really great fear is that I won't be able to get my line count. I HAVE to get my line count. I will be leaving a job with awesome benefits, retirement, blah blah blah, but I want to come back home with my children.
Sigh. If only it were easy.

IME Reports
I need some opinions!! I may be typing some IMEs in the near future and am getting paid by the gross. Do you think that should also include the templates, or only what is actually typed??
IME reports
If I am getting paid by the gross line for these reports, do you think the line count should also include the templates? I have never done these before and some say it should, and yet that may seem unfair??
reports
I do radiology too, but I don't near anywhere close to 200 rpts per day. Is that all plain films minus the MRIs, CTs, etc.?
They allow you 10 reports a day, I believe.
train, which I think lasts 2 weeks. Not 100% sure if this is still the case, but that's what they were doing at one time. The recruiter is very nice and will answer questions like this one. If she doesn't know, then she'll get you the answers you need.
yes they can see reports at TT
Control S, quick find, highlight a job or jobs and click statistics.
OP REPORTS
Absolutely yes. When checking the Lanier dictation minutes, the same amount of minutes was almost double in line count as compared to H&Ps. The other reasons posted below also play a part. Otherwise, why would be have Voice Recognition anyway?
rad reports
$1.20 at some companies but the work is low so if you get a lot of work for $1.10, you will make more.
Op reports
Try TRS - Transcription Relief Services.
ER reports
I've never seen a single one! They're probably typed offshore since they're considered easier!
As an IC, 10 yrs exp. in all but OP reports
what would you say is a good wage for a 65 CPL? I was thinking 10 CPL, but then I've been offered two jobs now at 9 CPL. What do you think?
Reports.....
I also applied and got the same response, but I must point out that these are long IME's, 4-40 pages in length, so one report could take you a while to do until you know the full format and correct way of doing it. Stop bashing people and companies until you know the full story.
So if you have to fix the reports anyway, you still

ER reports
ERs are my first transcription love. I made a lot of money typing them and enjoyed the variety they offered. The doctors dictate the same review of systems and physical exam repeatedly, and that's where you learn quickly to become one with your macros! The reports are fast, unlike discharge summaries, for example, where there are frequent long pauses (i.e., a waste of your time) while the dictator lollygags and reads the entire chart while dictating. ER doctors are accustomed to working on the fly. If you can find an ER account, grab it! You will love it.
ER Reports
Does anyone know of any companies who have specific ER accounts? Thanks!
Those reports
are going to be awfully hard to read without spaces.
I also have my QA reports, all of which are 100%, would YOU like to see them?
nm
RAD reports
I totally agree. Back in 1996 it was $1.00
I average100-120 reports a day. nm

Do you mean the reports come up with OR or all work or what. Need to know what you mean.

Comparing reports
Knowing I was going on DocQscribe, I kept 10 reports from MTs and their line counts and then pasted them into DocQScribe after I had been on it for a time - compared the line counts and they were almost right on - I had to manually subtract the header information in order to make it come out, but we know that we don't get paid for headers anymore.
I know that my biggest problem is the internet - when late afternoon comes and I am pressed to get done, my line count goes way up. If anyone can figure out how to discipline themselves from "surfing" - post it here - a lot of people would be very grateful.
