MQ Columbus/OHIO SC

Posted By: MQ'r on 2005-09-24
In Reply to: MQ-Columbus/Amherst - buffy

Not sure how long you have been with Columbus Buffy, but Columbus is now the ONLY Ohio CSC, ergo called the Ohio CSC.  Cleveland, Toledo, Dayton & Cincinnati were consolidated 2 years ago under the Columbus office to form the Ohio CSC.  Now many of my old timer's that I started with inhouse went home to either work or retire. 


I've been with them for 21 years now (starting with the old Transcriptions Limited) and have been through more supervisors, coordinator's and managers than I care to think about, but I honestly believe the reason we are so successful now is that our operations manager has been there/done that.  Started as an inhouse M/assistant, worked up a few notches into various positions IE; scheduling, weekend coordinator, supe, etc.  Went home to MT for a while then came back in a few years back and really worked her way up into the present position.  Her ability to know what's needed all the way around, delegate and common sense attitude really speaks for itself in how successful we are. 


Nope, never met the OM, only talked to her on the phone over the years and am not *the cheerleader*.  Only stating what I know for a fact and what works for my CSC.

Goodbye Columbus...
Yes, I'm afraid Columbus is closing in December - and its not a rumor but fact...sniffle,sniffle...
Columbus Office
I am in the Columbus office.  There is ALWAYS plenty of work (more than I think can ever be done :-)  But, I don't like my hours being micromanaged (I'm an SE) and am producing WAY over minimum, so don't bug me if I work 3 hours and produce 1000 lines, when I could really slow it down and do my minimum 400 lines a day and drag it out to 5 hours.
MQ-Columbus/Amherst
I too work for the Colunbus office and it is the best. I have one primary acct and I am able to do 15,000 lines a pay period and never worry about running out of work. I am not bragging about it, I feel sorry for the MT's in the Amherst office and wish that your office was run like the Columbus office. Why do the big wigs let something like this continue on and give MQ a bad name. Rumor has it that my office is closing and we are being transferred to the Cleveland office, that is fine, as long as it is not to the Amherst office.
Do they still do Doc Hospital of Columbus,GA
Loved that account, then it went to India. Does Heartland still have that account? Thanks!
the only time I ran out was on columbus day
other than that nope. I'm sure it will be quite slow thanksgiving week, which is okay with me and christmas week. I'm used to that from when I was doing my own accounts, the docs usually took those weeks off or all the patients would :) But I'm good with it, at least I can spend time with my kids while they are on school breaks...I just have to plan ahead. Feel free to email me anytime, its nice talking with someone who I work with.
Info on Columbus MQ and DEP platform...anything you can give me.

Dewey/MQ Columbus office closing

I know there have been post on this board about the Columbus/Ohio office closing BUT, these were "leaks from inhouse", speculation, etc....as is the norm with MQ.


So, I'm not sure if they do close where we would all go, get transferred to etc.  I just pray they don't..why mess with a great thing ya know?


Today is Columbus day, and state offices and post office
is closed. Perhaps some docs took a long weekend. Maybe that is why on this particular Monday the work is trickling in. I am just getting some work now. So maybe it will come in later. Just an idea, about it being a holiday.
MQ Ohio CSC

Ohio has to be one of the best offices to work for in the MQ system. My girlfriend got transferred there a couple of months ago and has never run out of work yet and she is only in one account, communications is great, all kind of incentives that you do not have to ask for---just my luck when I asked to be transferred there, supposedly there is a freeze on transfers and I am stuck in the northeast


 


Keep up the good work Ohio--it is appreciated by the MT's that work there.


OHIO MQ
You must be management, or a favorite, or something! That is NOT how it is. I have been there for 5 years+. Did someone ask you to post that to boost morale or what?
Ohio MQ
I hope you hold that high opinion after you've been there awhile. You DO run out of work, poor communication, lots of luck getting a raise. If there is any question or problem, you cannot get a response. Good luck.
Ohio MQ
If i didn't know you were talking about Ohio, I would have thought you were talking about foxboro and amherst. My girlfriends dealing with the Ohio office has been nothing but good and actually i know of at least 3 others that were in my old office before it closed and they opted to go to Ohio rather than be transferred to foxboro and it has worked out great for them. maybe with the lack of work in foxboro, that could be why she was transferred. i always thought the foxboro office would close and just merge with the amherst office anyways. after all i thought the goal of MQ was to have all their accounts on the platform and those of us that are still in foxboro are on MTS so are we a dying breed
Try Ohio...
Ohio MQ is awesome - plenty of work!
MQ/OHIO...
I have all those things U want working 4 MQ/Ohio...come join me in the Buckeye State, where the grass is always greener....
MQ/Ohio - sm
Would you email me and tell me how to go about contacting that particular office? I was offered a job by MQ about a month ago, but it was for the Denver office. They told me that was the only place that had a radiology position....thanks greenfl3@yahoo.com
Ohio MQ-What is not to like

Does she like working for the Ohio office over the Amherst/Foxboro office??? What is not to like, she is in ONE account and always has work, when transferred was told that she would be paid extra for working after 3PM, working on the week-ends, and working on the holidays and the most important thing about all this is that she did not have to ask, this is the  norm at the Ohio office, Again and again it is stated, why are not all the MQ offices run the same?????? Maybe if they were, it would not be so miserable working for the Amherst office. We are not asking for too much, just to have the chance to make a living.

PDA out of Ohio

Two girls in my office type for PDA at home at night and love both the owners. They are very fair and helpful.  When they have QA questions, they get right back to them


 


I wonder if this is the old MRC from Ohio. nm

I worked for them for a short time over the summer; very nice and laid back folks.  Pay is good for experienced MTs and always on time!!!  I really enjoyed working for them and only left because I'm working a full-time employee status job now with Axolotyl. 
Ohio transfer
You are so lucky--the Ohio office is a great place to work for, all kinds of incentives and you do not have to ask for them, plenty of work--good luck--you will enjoying working there, my girlfriend asked to be transferred there from Foxboro about 3 months ago and it has turned out to be the best move that she could have made. She is in one acccount and has all the work that she needs--what I don't understand is if there is so much work in the amherst office and accounts that are out of TAT, why you were not transferred there????
Ohio MQ office
Welcome aboard.  I've been with them for 10 yrs, now on DocQscribe, love it, never ever out of work...we need the help desperately
Felicia--go to Ohio
the Ohio office is the best-my friend is there and always gets her lines and that is only in one account--if you can get transferred to Ohio, please go there--stay away from the NE
They are located in Ohio....sm
An offshoot of one of the major health systems here in the Akron area. Were just recently started and are trying to get their feet wet in the national arena. Primarily were doing nothing but local work just a few months ago and very disorganized at the time. Don't know what they're like now. Benefits seemed good, comparable, but were just getting started. Originally wanted 150 lph with 98% quality and a rather harsh grading scale. For instance, medical word misuse was minus 5 percentage points, omitted (consequential) dictation minus 5 points, medical misspelling minus 3 points, and so on.... Hope this helps!
Ohio Companies

Has any one heard of Physicians First Transcription company, or Priority Transcription Company?


Thanks,

I think that is somewhere in Ohio, but could be wrong. nm

chase is out of Ohio
extremely low pay, but made it sound like i would be paid more by being paid for Keystrokes but after like what was pulling teeth it comes out to exactly 65 characters a line which includes spaces.  hope this helps.
TCI, Ohio---any info on them
would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!
I live in Ohio...hence the name...

No, they are not based out of Ohio
They have a home base in Connecticut, but they are  an Indian-owned company.
To Tired in Ohio
Do you know what it is about the platform that is causing your counts to go down? Is it the way it counts lines or other things. Would appreciate if you could elaborate a bit. Thank you.
I do some overflow for the Ohio office...
I work out of a different MQ office but have been doing some overflow work for the Ohio office. I only work on one account for their office, but it seems to have a lot of work. Not too many ESL docs, though there are a couple of tough ones. With the account I am on, mostly the dictators just speak very rapidly, but with time I've been able to get more comfortable with them.

Good luck to you!
curios about MQ Ohio closing
where and when was that announced?
Ohio office closing
I remember something about MQ consolidating down to just four regional offices, but never heard of the Ohio office closing.  Columbus is the only one in Ohio, but I am still curious as to where this info came from?
MQ Ohio office closing
This is to MQ'r--previously on the board there was a posting that the MQ Ohio office was going to be closed at the end of the year, if this is the only office left in Ohio, do you know where you would be transferred to. I thought you would be transferred to another office in Ohio but seeing that this is the only one that is not going to work. From what I have read on the board I would hope that it is not to the Amherst office.
Same at small company in Ohio sm
I worked for. Owner did all the easy and templated work. I almost went broke working for them. Only paid 8 cpl and have awful accounts. You'd be lucky to get over $400 a week there. Expects people to work 15 to 18 hour days and both weekend days too.
Any info on PRN Transcription out of Ohio? nm

Hi! Would anyone be able to offer any comments regarding this company based out of Ohio?  Any info appreciated!   



Transcription Connection in Ohio

Would not ever recommend this company to anyone. Run, run as fast as you can.


 


TRANSCRIPTION CONNECTION IN OHIO

In reply to your post, TCI is an outstanding company to work for. I have always been paid well and paid always on time. They expect quality work from all employees and provide quality dictation to their clients as well as TAT times under 24 hours. All clients are pleased. All MT's employed are VERY happy with TCI.


Transcription Connection out of Ohio...sm
Any info good or bad?  Thanks.
TCI, Ohio...Please stay away from this company
The pay is horrible. The owner degrades you on a daily basis and they promise you tons of work and then CUT you when times get slow. Please from one fellow MT to another...don't waste your time! You deserve much better!
I work for the one out of Houston but don't know anything about the Ohio TT

I guess Amherst, NY and Ohio but I dont know the 3rd one.

MQ Ohio office closing-why not Amherst

What I don't understand is why they are closing an office that is obviously run very well--I don't think I have every seen anything but good about this office and yet they are closing it and continuing to leave the Amherst office open. What is wrong with this picture!!!!


 


Something is not right here but yet nothing is being done


I believe Transcription Connection in Ohio uses it for some of their accounts.

Anyone heard of Belvin Compay in Ohio?

Please provide inputs.  thanks
