In Reply to: Mediscript in Wisconsin, anyone have exp w/this co? - How do you like them? sm
I work for Mediscript and could not be happier. They leave you alone as long as you do what you commit to them for. The only downfall is a C-phone, but for the pay I can over look that!!!!

Mediscript
Any info on Mediscript, unsure where they are located, just took a test from them. Checked archives and found very little, any info would be appreciated.
mediscript
do not know which Mediscript, just took their test, and that is what it said at the top of the test. Anything about the company, is it a honest reputable company that treats his MTs good? I guess if you do not know which Mediscript, you will not be able to answer my question. Can you tell me this, it is a national?
Mediscript
I checked the archives and did not find any information that was helpful, what do you know or tell me how to find out.
Mediscript
They offered me 9 cents per gross line. They do not offer direct deposit, you invoice on the 15 and 30, unsure when you get paid, I think 20 days after you invoice. The platform is WP 7 or higher. I took their test, passed it, was hired, but was unable to get any help with start up. They sent me a packet of instructions and said to go for it. I am not computer savy, so this did not work for me, it might for you though. Gross line pay is the best in the business, I think it would be worth giving it a try. Just my opinion.

Which mediscript?? What are your specific questions? nm

All I can find in archives about Mediscript is sm
"Bad news!" and nothing else. That doesn't tell me or anyone else anything useful. I don't care if someone says "bad news!" but could they please back it up with some real info? Preferably first-hand experiences would be nice, thank you.
Does anyone out there have any info about Mediscript? I know they pay by the gross line, but how much? Do they offer direct deposit? When are the pay days? How's the platform? Any info appreciated. I'd like to gather some information first before I take any tests or talk to them so I can determine if it's worth going through all that for a job that might not be a fit for me.
Anybody have any experience with Mediscript, Texas? nm

Are there any former Mediscript (Austell, GA) employees that know what happened with them?sm
I worked with them for about 10 years. I drove by the other day, and they were obviously out of business. Just curious as to the circumstances. If anyone could e-mail me, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Read in the archives that Mediscript (FL) is "bad news" Why?

There was a lot of trouble with this company earlier this year - see archives -- Mediscript
How did you find out about them?
I didn't ask about Medscribe, I asked about Mediscript in FLA. No direct deposit w/this co.
Statuatory employee versus regular employee....
Can someone tell me the difference between a statuatory employee versus a regular employee? My company offeres IC or SE status....I am confused about whether switching over the SE would benefit me more than IC status that I have been for some time with them? What are the benefits and disadvantages of being an SE versus IC? Thanks for all of your help!
They hire both IC and employee. I am an employee (see message)
and I have full benefits. I am very happy that I came to work here. I came as a statutory employee from a large company. Everyone at MDI has been great to me.
Depends on if you are employee or statutory employee (sm)
Employee, 8th and 23rd of month
Stat. Employee, 15th and 30th month
Diskriter - Anyone go from their employee to hospital employee with them?
Thinking about giving up on being their employee and applying for a hospital employee position through them, they have one in PA right now that looks good. How is it for scheduling? Do you keep your line rate or get whatever the hospital pays? Who manages those accounts, is it the same PM and DR that are on the other ones? I have DR and feel like she doesn't have a clue what she is doing and it is so annoying, but I just don't have the guts to let the company know she needs to step it up a notch because the transcriptionists are not happy under her. Are QA the same people or through the hospital. They have 1 QA that is constantly asking us questions on doctors and format, things we should be asking that QA person. Annoying that new people move up to QA but people who've been there 2 or 3 years get treated like dirt and jumped account to account.
Only employee and statutory employee..no IC

As an employee
I average about 8.5. They have an incentive if you type 12,000 in a 2-week pay period and that's not too hard to do on their system. Plus they pay higher on the weekends and at night (which I do on a split shift). I also figure the benefits are worth it because they use United, which I like the coverage in my area. All in all I am happy with them and I really like my team leader, that's a big plus to me.
Is this IC, SE, or employee?
nm
Yes they do, also employee and PT
positions were available when I interviewed 6 months ago.
Every employee is different.
I have found OSi to be very flexible. I personally do not work weekends. We are required to work holidays if they fall on your normally scheduled days; although, getting paid at 5 cpl extra. You can also request holidays off, which has never been a problem for me. I have never been denied on a request.
IC vs Employee
You will pay more taxes as an IC because of SSI, whereas as an employee, you do not (your employer pays half of SSI.)
You said you are an employee? Where?
Where are these 4 companies that pay $8K a quarter for bonuses?!?! Please, do tell!!
And provide enough work for you alone to do that much work?!?! Please, do share!!
When you are an employee, do you
If so, you are better off being an employee. Otherwise, the so-called self-employment tax cuts heavily into your earned income credit. It did for me at least, without having made a huge amount of self-employment income.
You can owe as an employee also
If you filled out your W9 form and put down for 10 dependents you would also owe or if your marital status changed or your deductions changed. All I am saying is that people think that because their employer is taking their taxes out for them they are not paying their own taxes. When you handle your own money, you just have to be structured enough to take out what an employer takes out. See your paycheck before and after taxes and see the percentage you are paying. When you get a tax refund that is YOUR money that the government has had for a year. You just underpaid. You can also overpay as a business owner or an IC and get a refund. But with the amount of deductions I have, I will never go back to an employee full-time as I would lose another 20% to the government and not ready to give that over.
employee or IC.
IC or employee?
I just checked their website and it states they only hire employees? It is possible to be an IC with them?
Yes, you can be IC or employee, nm

Employee
Their platform is very productive and they offer full benefits to full-time employees. For that they do expect you to work an employee schedule as they try to have the coverage issues worked out. There have been some growing pains with work flow, but my experience has been they have been resolved quickly and certainly nothing chronic. They do not pay for spaces but I took that into account negotiating the line rate. The efficient platform and getting paid for headers also helps offset the spaces issue for me.
Is this as an IC, or are you an employee? nm

They must be as I don't do employee (nm)
@__@
Sorry.. Employee, soon to be EX, at MDI-FL..
Definitely need to clarify that.
Pay for IC vs. employee
I'm interested to learn the average difference in pay between IC and employee--such as, if as an IC I earn 9 cpl (65 char with spaces), as a regular employee what would be the equivalent? I'm guessing about 2 cpl less, so it would be 7 cpl as an employee. I don't need insurance though.
Thank you in advance!
IC vs employee
An employer generally pays about 20% in benefits and overhead for each employee which includes medical insurance, paid vacation, income taxes, 401K, equipment, fringe bennies. So yes, in the example you gave it would equate to about 0.2 cpl.
Employee only. nm

Are you and employee or IC? (nm)
/
An employee. nm

Really? I am a former employee of one of those
companies and I know one of them do.
are you an employee? sm
if so they are bound to take out state taxes. If you are an IC, of course not. Oh-- and by the way-- you would have to pay your state taxes yourself anyway :)
P.S. And, yes, I was an employee.
And yes, taxes are ultimately the responsibility of the employee, but most legitimate companies withdraw taxes from the employee's paycheck. I found it difficult enough just paying my regular bills with the very low rate of pay this company offered, and it was impossible for me to also put aside extra money to pay for the taxes they refused to take out.
One of the reasons I decided to accept employment with them was because I belieevd of all the hype about them being best employer, etc., and I refused to listen to all the little warning signs that frequently popped up in my brain. I won't ever do that again.
Not the OP, but is she is an employee, sm
why shouldn't she get paid for downtime? If you worked at Burger King and no customers came in for an hour, yet you were required to be ready to service the customers, wouldn't you expect to be paid? JMHO
Now, if she is IC, she's out of luck.
