Med-Links and DocuMed NJ info

Posted By: medtran26 on 2008-05-29
In Reply to:

Does anyone have any information on MedLinks of TN and DocuMed of NJ.  I do know there are 2 different DocuMeds.  Most posts do not differentiate between the two.  I think I read the bad DocuMed is in TN and good one is in NJ.  I can't find much at all about MedLinks of TN.  Thanks in advance for any information.  I sent my resume to MDI but haven't heard anything back......

Documed Medical Transcritpions, LLC out of New Jersey...anyone with info?

links

There is one on the job seeker's board.  Says Transcriptionist needed.  That one is for $25. 


there are MANY links there to learn....sm

about the company - the VERY TOP of the page - I almost missed it myself.....but there's all kinds of info, FAQs, and contact page for any questions you might have that the website did NOT answer for you.


Geesh, you can lead a horse to water, you cannot make them drink it.


And no, I wasn't the poster of that website - it was your reaction that got me curious and so I went to that website and there is a lot of info there....only at the top of the page of the browser......


 


It is below but they pay links (ie CT abd and pel = 2 reports), and
specials are paid higher.

I think the range is 1.00-1.25 for regular reports and 2.00-3.50 for specials.
Not paid for links........
I work for KS and have been told that the hospital account I am on wont pay for for links. I guess it is up to each individual account?  So those long CT's get my goat up as they can be quite lengthy.  Am paid more for specials, but only get one or two per shift.  Been with them for only a couple months, like the account, like the company, but am feeling like $1.10 per report is not enough.  I plan to stay with them for a long while, perhaps ask for a raise down the road.

I used the Google search at top with MTStars checked. Didn't read them all, some old, but a start for you.
We get paid for links on the account I am on. sm
The specials that I get are all the shortest and the best. Ex: PICC line insertion. Right side. Give it a normal.


That may be true, but other companies use it. Med-Links for one. nm

I don't think so, I am making $2.00 per report with links.

Americans are getting fed up with it. My fear is with a blended company of U.S. and India bases, that healthcare providers will not trust that their records actuall are staying in the U.S.

that I found for you.  Potential employers are supposed to get written permission to check your credit report and also notify you if adverse action is taken based upon that report, i.e, you not getting the job, and there are penalties if they don't follow procedure. I wonder what they were looking for as pertains to getting an MT job, a lot of information there that not just everybody in the world needs to have, unless they were verifying employment history, SS#, whatever.  My husband has to fill out a form starting last year for government security and has to include all MY info too, which didn't set too well with me, but he said if I want him to have the job I better do it, like they need to know if I'm a security risk for him to take bribes or something, okie doke then....while you're at it, why don't you DO something about offshoring so we can keep decent jobs here....

I just hired on with Med-Links today ... sm
So far they're very professional and courteous. Decent line rate, IC flexibility, and use Bayscribe as a platform. The owner is an actual MT and understands our work process. Best of all, no weekend work. I almost fell out of my chair when she told me that ... :-).

The MQ forum was set up several days ago. The reason you probably could not see the links
in the left hand column is because you need to refresh your browser (F5). 
Ask for the raise if the account doesn't pay links. You may be sm
pleasantly surprised. I did and got it and it made all the difference in the world to me. I talked to my lead who said that most accounts pay links and only a few don't. Those are all accounts they had for a while, she said before they knew to charge for them. All new accounts include them, which is great. I love working for Keystrokes!
Documed ...sm
I have searched the archives, and there isn't much there...can anyone tell me ANYTHING about this company?  I believe they are out of NJ....TIA
Documed
Any feedback on Documed out of NJ?
Documed
I had posted a question about Documed a few days ago and never got a response either, but I would love to know what the deal is with them.
Documed
Thanks for the info! BTW - what is a cherry picker?
DocuMed
Does anyone know anything about DocuMed????
documed
Could I please hear from someone/anyone who has worked with or is currently working for Documed in NJ? TIA.
Documed
Just wanted to know how you got along with the office staff. They seem like quite a nice group of people.
Documed
Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know.
Re: Documed.
I do currently work with Documed and have for about over a year.  Excellent people.  I just love it there.
documed

Does anyone know anything about this company, or where they are located?  I can't seem to find much on them.


Thanks!


documed
actually, the documed in Google is a company that makes medical supplies.  however I did find the other one.  Does anyone know anything about it??
documed

All this m.t.'ing must be making me crazy.  When I Google it brings up the company which does formats, etc. and when you look under opportunities it is all about engineers!   


documed
I have been with them for the past nine months and I love it. The work is easy, always lots of it, and the staff are super. Pay is pretty good too, except they only pay for spaces, no headers/footers, tabs, or returns.
Documed
Does anyone here work for Documed?  If so, any feedback?
Which DocuMed ? NJ ?...nm

DocuMed in TN

Does anyone have any info on DocuMed in TN/Joy Pickett?  I have been offered a full time radiology MT position without testing and I wanted some info on them before I make a decision.  I have a couple of job offers and I need to make a decision but I wanted some info on them first.  TIA


 


Re: A few asking about DocuMed in NJ

I am sorry.  I seen a few asking about DocuMed in NJ but by the time I had a chance to come back I could not find your questions as I was going to answer you.  I do currently work for them.  I have been with them a few years now.  If you have any questions regarding them you are welcome to e-mail me and I will tell what I do know and my experience with them.  I know they are looking for a couple more people. 


DocuMed

Does anybody know any info about this company out of New Jersey?  Good or bad to work for?


DocuMed
I wish I had read these recent posts before I turned down another job. I tested last Thursday -- heard back from them late Monday. I called Tuesday when offered a job via E-mail. She asked me to type 3 more files for 2 other doctors. I did so, sent them back and I haven't heard a word since! I was really looking forward to a full-time job again. I hate my current part-time gig. Good luck to you! I guess I will go back to looking again. Oh Joy!
Documed
I am sorry you all had bad experiences with this company. I can only tell you it's the best company I've ever worked for. Management is fantastic, and the owner is such a nice person. This company is very personable. I've never had a situation they couldn't work out with me, such as vacation, etc. I think they had a few bugs to work out when I first started with them, and I almost quit, but I am glad I hung in there. I have been there for almost two years. They pay on time, twice a month. I've never had a problem with my check, and they do pay for spaces. Just wanted to give a positive note about this company because they definitely deserve it.
DocuMed
I was recently offered a job with DocuMed.  Does anyone have any experience with them, either good or bad   Thanks
DocuMed
I am through with this place. They offered me a job too. Said that my test was excellent. I called to accept the job -- they asked that I type 4 more reports and I never heard from them again. They never paid me either. I am not alone. Others have sent me Emails describing the same experience. Good Luck.
DocuMed
Was the person's name by chance Joy or Donna that runs this company. If so, they are also known as ASAP/Alliance. I had to finally threaten to take them to every organization I could think of and they wired me my money.
DocuMed
The pay is on time, direct deposit.  The dictators are okay.  The staff leaves a lot to be desired.
Does anyone know why Documed keeps
advertising for the same position?  Several months ago I tested and passed for the ortho account but then she never followed through. I keep seeing the same ad.
documed
I only worked for them for a short time. When they called they said all accounts were filled and hired me to do family service at 7cpl. The reports were very long and not consistant.
DocuMed
I have been working for DocuMed for a couple months now.  I have seen a couple of negative posts also, but as with any comments about any companies - sometimes the negative stuff just isn't true.  My thought is - take everything with a grain of salt - you will never know until you try in out for yourself.  I love working for DocuMed so far and have nothing but positive things to say.  Could that change in the future?  Maybe, but for now I'm quite content and happy!  
documed
Any worked on this platform before?  How is it? Easy to use, great with ShortHand or Instatext?  TIA.
DocuMed
I've looked back at the posts on DocuMed; about how NJ is good and TN is bad.  My question is how can you tell which place your resume is going to?  I'd like to send a resume for the jobs posted on the seeker's board, but don't know what I might be getting in to.  Do I have to wait until I hear back from them to find out for sure and even then, how will I know?  If any current DocuMed MT from NJ could respond or even email me - this sounds like a really good company to work for and I don't want to make the mistake of getting in with the wrong one.  Thanks so much!
Documed
I was wondering how many other people out there tested with Documed and what kind of response you received from them?  i just recently tested with them, typed everything the doctor said right down to the letter, and they told me I had too many mistakes.  I also noticed that the volume of the tests were awfully low as well.  What were your experiences with them?
Has anyone had any experience with DocuMed?

They posted on MTJobs Board a week ago and just sent me their voice test - just wondering if it's worth my time.  Any info greatly appreciated.


Thanks.
