MD-IT info? Search function not working...sm
Posted By: justme on 2008-03-12
In Reply to:
I am wondering MD-IT ... specifically, do they hire IC, and are they only acute care or do they have clinic work? Their website doesn't give much in the way of specifics for employment, but directs to testing. If anyone has any information they want to share, would love to hear it! TIA.

If you use the Search function
at the top of the page and put in HIP, there are a few posts from 2004 and 2005. Hope that helps a little. Are they hiring right now?
Cannot get search function to work. I go up to the box
at the top of the page for the Google search and move it to search ''MT Stars.com'' but it never comes back with anything. I have tried several companies that I know have been mentioned on this board but it always comes back with no results.
Spelling correctly would help search function. nm
try Search function, top of the board, to left of Topics

Any info on MD-IT? Nothing by doing a search.sm
I wondering if anyone has any information about MD-IT. Do they offshore? (they say they don't), platform, pay. Any info would be good. Also, anyone know if QA position is hourly or production? I don't even want to waste my time if production or very low hourly. I hate wasting my time testing, only to find out it is really crappy pay. TIA
How do I search for info that is not archived? Do I do

Go to the bottom of this page and search the archives, hit Control-F for Find and type in WebMedX and you'll find a lot more information and opinions.

Info about working for OSi
To the original poster who was inquiring about what it is like to work for OSi:
I recently left OSi after working there for about 2 years. While they are not the worst place I have worked, they are certainly not the best either. Here's what I loved about my job with them:
1. Pay always on time, deposited in my account with direct debit. When there was a problem with my pay one time, they immediately addressed the issue and a check was sent to me ASAP.
2. Loved the EXText platform. Easy to navigate, with the ability to look up sample reports for reference.
3. On the clinic account I was hired on, the supervisor was very laid back and appeared not to micromanage the account or play favorites. I never got a call or was bothered on my days off. Pay was 0.075 cpl. Problem was they were shipping more and more of the account overseas (which was easy to look up on their platform).
4. When I initially started there, very knowledgeable QA with a fair grading system. Gave an incentive for making 100% QA, which I did without fail every evaluation period.
Here is what I hated and why I left:
1. After about a year there, I requested a change in account because my clinic account was always out of work, and no explanations were forthcoming as to why this was. I was basically left high and dry with no work on 2 accounts until I finally made the decision to leave and then they were all over me trying to get me to stay.
2. VA account I was placed on was micromanaged by a supervisor who played favorites and sent easy work (e.g., clinic notes and easiest dictators) to her pets. (Again, it was very easy to look this up on their system. When you see the same MT #'s come up time and again on the easiest reports, and they are working the same hours as you, it's a bit of a red flag.)
3. Got harrassed repeatedly by this same supervisor, who seemed to think that it was acceptable that she made me sit there with no work during my shift due to her micromanaging of the account and playing favorites but then would phone or e-mail me (and others on the account) repeatedly on weekends or during off hours because SHE was getting out of turn-around time!
4. Complete LACK of communication or incorrect info with the littlest details. I used to work for another large national who would take a week or more to get back with you for a simple e-mail. OSi supervisors will e-mail you back right away but many times seem not to know the answers to the simplest questions or they just never get back to you with an answer. There is a LOT of disorganization in that company.
5. Health benefits are ridiculously overpriced and unaffordable.
6. New QA manager unprofessional in conference calls and e-mails and not very knowledgeable about QA, has quite an attitude when she feels she is being questioned about something. Many of the QA specialists who work under her were very nice and accommodating; however, there is a big turnover rate with them - wonder why.
6. I discovered that they are sending more and more of their work overseas, and I do not want to work for a company (or industry) that does this. I am out of MT now and have never been happier.
Well, that is a fair and balanced assessment of my time with OSi. While I would never recommend them as a company to work for, they were no different really than any of these nationals have become, so I wouldn't say they're all bad either. It is best to make your own decisions about these things, as long as you have accurate information to go from. Good luck to you!
FYI: VA accounts pay more because they are notoriously full of ESLs with a lot of account specifics that change almost daily.
Any info on eMTS? Anybody currently working for them?

I function without a lot of sleep
I try to get up at about 4 a.m., work until 7 when my daughter gets up, start working again at 8 a.m. until she comes home at 3. I guess I do work evenings sometimes, but my desk is right by the kitchen so I'm up and down a lot then. Sometimes I stay up until 11 or so to work after she goes to bed. I do sometimes feel like I'm always working, but I ran up some credit card bills a few years ago and promised to bring in a certain amount of money to help pay down that debt, and now I'm living up to my part of the bargain. Again, though, I do work a lot and sometimes feel like I'm missing out on life, but don't a lot of us feel that way?
cntr I function
gives you the # of reports. For example, so far today 13 reports gave me about 700 lines, a mix of OP notes and H&Ps. My company does not count the headers or footers either. I think 1500 lines a day or more is probably obtainable on this system. Im new, Im still busy plugging in normals and learning dictators. To have to type 30 or more reports as I was told by one company to even hit 1000 lines is just BS. Of course cntrl I was not enabled so I was essentially working blind. Took me about 2 months to catch on unfortunately.
Anyone currently working Webmedx/Transhealth radiology would care to share info on them - sm
Are all of the dictators ESL as in the test on the website? If you sign on as a radiology MT are you still allowed a 12-hour window. Has workload been fairly consistent? Any info would be greatly appreciated. I took the test and would like some info before I am contacted. TIA.

Word function keys
Yes, this does happen. There is a little program that goes into your computer when they load Transnet, which disables the function keys of Word. Ctrl S in Word is Save, Ctrl S in Transnet is to search prior jobs, etc. Ctrl N in Word brings up a new document. Ctrl N in Transnet ends and spell checks the job. THis should go away when you UNINSTALL Transnet the proper way.
Use your zoom function to make it
larger but make sure to return it to 100% when you are done. It saves it the larger print if you don't. It is easy to enlarge before and then decrease after. I wouldn't want it to come to me other than 100% either....so I am very careful to maintain it when I am done as a courtesy.
yawning is a natural function but
so is flatulence. You don't mind if people and/or doctors do that right in your face without apologizing? Tired, bean-filled, or what not.
Cntr I function should be available within the program
if you're talking about the Extext program where you have to go to the Ichart website to get lines and cannot verify # of reports to go with those lines then this is shifty. There is a line counter within the program that works just fine when it is enabled.
When company does not allow CTRL i function to be used by its MT's.
EXText is the platform you transcribe in, but EXSpeech is the VR portion of Dictatphone EXText.
My STM said it was b/c the Alt-G and history function was creating sm
a potential HIPAA problem because it was copying a viewed patient name into your current document sometimes. Alt-G and history are connected somehow apparently? She also said they were bringing viewing history back later on this year.
They told us before the reason that function had been
disabled was because of the difference in counts, that program counts ALL words and ichart does not -- headers are not paid for and add up to a lot of lines. I don't think there is any difference from before.
Use the Google search box for MTStars.com, not the Search box at top of page. Lots of
s
If you are using Express Scribe, you can use your function keys and...
the instructions are in the Help section or maybe it is in Setup. Good luck on the test!
Transtech has that function blocked from our use . . . go figure why?
I am at a loss for all this blocking ExText functions from us. Yes, I have worked on ExText before, also, and could use any function that it had to offer to the MT.
