MQ Ohio office closing

In Reply to: MQ Columbus/OHIO SC - MQ'r
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.

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-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
MQ Houston office closing? I was thinking about applying but I just heard that they are closing
the Houston office soon. What's going on with them?
curios about MQ Ohio closing
where and when was that announced?
are you certain the office is closing?
You might want to call there and ask.
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?
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
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!
Can anyone working for the Ohio MQ office tell me who they are and are the accounts decent to do or
are there a lot of ESLs. Thanks for any info you have.
ETC Office Services. Tammy Coffman out of Ohio.
My friend said she sounded very good and supposedly had direct deposit. Well, she had no deposit and the lady said she would wire the money and apparently did not do that either. I dont like liars.
Can anyone from the Ohio MQ office give me a contact person and a phone number to call so I can talk
to someone there without getting a lot of other people involved before I find out what kind of accounts they have to offer. I am interested in transferring from my current office but would like to speak with someone up there first. Even an email address of someone would help.
Actually they will all be closing,
Except the corporate office, of course.
QT closing
yeah, like they would be kind enough to give anyone advance warning of anything. They strung along all the MTs and office people with empty promises and lies while they chortle all the way to the bank. They are NOT nice people and I hope karma bites them in the butt for the way they treated their MTs and office staff. As for severance pay? Can ya hear me laughing? From what I hear there were only a handful of MTs left, but agree with other poster, what a horrible time of year to dump your employees, be it MTs or other. Very grinchy of them
The main office was in Bolingbrook but they built an office in Yorkville last fall. SM
I think that the owners live in Yorkville, so it was built close to their house. Nice office, just pretty far out.
ColumbusMQ Closing
Have you been told where you are being transferred??? I hope not to Amherst---your accts will be overstaffed and you will be out of work in no time. It seems like everyone who is tranferred there with their accts is out of work shortly there after. It happened with all our accts when were transferred to Foxboro and Amherst. Has anyone had any contact from the Foxboro office lately?? I wonder if that office will be closing soon if all their accts are going up on DQS all the MT's would be transferred to Amherst
Chicago MQ--closing
Do you know where you are going to be transferred to??? Please not to Amherst
Does anyone know how many MQ offices are actually left???
Closing in on 3 months at KS...
and I'm very happy. I did not have full time work right out the gate as expected, but in the second week I made noises about it and they did get me backup accounts. Now I have tons of work and a real sense of security about it. The support has been great. All the managers are accessible and responsive. I came in while they were putting together a whole new benefits package so the dust is still settling on that, but I can't complain compared to what I had at my last company. When I was company-shopping I felt discouraged about all the talk about different companies, but this looks to be a situation I could settle into for what's left of my work years (too many!!). 
I heard they were closing down
completely! Something about never making any money in the MT business.
Closing date is 08/31 but there's a 15-day
nm
And Chicago CSC is closing also as of end of October...nm
nm
Warminster closing probably end of year.

Difference in selling and just closing down
I can understand if there were legal issues regarding the sale of a company, but rumor has it that QT is just calling it quits, I would not think there would be any legal reason not to tell anyone, maybe they are just trying to prevent the MTs from leaving before the account has terminated. Still from what I read, most of the MTs would not go until the account was gone and the doors were shut, so I think it would more professional if QT told their transcriptionists what was going on.
P.S....or if facility is closing and provided that
Which they almost certainly would in most cases. This law has NOT proven to provide the protection for laid off workers that you seem to imagine.
technically, after the closing, then employees not ICs
so might want to rethink
Just curious, is the MQ Nashville office the old Lanier office? nm
nm
I don't work in the office and never claimed to. I am just saying that since the new office open
October with everyone of the admin staff in one place, these problems do not occur any more.
Irony - MQ is closing offices and Keystrokes just built a new one. sm
I was part time with MQ and full time with KS and now will be KS only. I am radiology, make great money and have a great lead. I would recommend them to all MQ MTs that are thinking of leaving.
The email is KeystrokesNow@aol.com. The fax is (630) 729-3177.
We do not have a referral bonus, I am just trying to help everyone that is feeling displaced.
Don't understand, are you in suspecting you are losing an account or QT closing? nm
.
Can't get paid in the office if you don't work in the office.
JLG has MT's working at home, not in the office, not to mention working out of state. The mail is the only way to get paid since they have temporarily suspended direct deposit. The only ones getting paid on time are the ones that do work in the office, like the management and people answering the phone.
Closed FW office, Indianapolis office too. nm

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

Ohio MT
Read Pat Buchanan's THE DEATH OF THE WEST.
They are out of Ohio
*
p.r.n. in Ohio
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????
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
MQ Columbus/OHIO SC
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.
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,
Cheryl
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.
