No, they do not charge rental for equipment. 
NetMed
Anyone have any information regarding NetMed out of Cadillac, Michigan. Thanks.
Netmed

There have been good comments on the boards about them, and they have only IC positions.  That's all I know..


NetMed?
any info on them? Much appreciated.
NetMed
The pay is not that good, 7.5 cpl the last I knew. You have to train in Cadillac, Michigan if you live in Michigan. Don't know if they hire out of state, last I knew they didn't.
Netmed
Yes, IC  and pay is on time, or at least was.
NetMed
Yes, I have heard of them.
Netmed
I worked for NetMed for a short time. Unfortunately I was looking for part-time work and it just wasn't working out (too hard to keep up with two full time jobs). Everyone in the company seemed very nice and I never had a problem with getting paid. I wish things would have worked out, I really enjoyed working for NetMed the short time I did.
NetMed
Did anyone apply for the hem/onc opening for this company?  If so, have you heard back from them.  I immediately sent them my resume (have over 10 years MT exp.) but have heard nothing back.  Curious to know if anyone else has heard back.  Thanks for sharing.
NetMed
I applied. Not really looking for work, but I do Hem/Onc and was interested in seeing what the pay scale was. No reply as of yet.
NetMed
Here is the ad: NetMed Transcription has an immediate need for 2 MT's that have experience in Hematology/Oncology. All english speeking doctors. Sofware provided.

I see no mention of 8 cents per line.
NetMed
Has anyone applied to this company that has an ad on Job Board?  It says to send them an email...no email addy is listed with posting so I went on Google and searched for the company, sent my resume directly to them (or so I thought) then a few minutes later I get an email that says it is an undeliverable address!  What's up with that?  How are we supposed to send a resume when that happens?  Is it a legitimate ad or not?????
NetMed
Actually, I did send my resume where it says Apply but I always like to send it via email as well because so many companies state they sometimes do not receive the ones sent via the site.
NetMed
The e-mail address on my previous post does not work.
regarding NetMed
I work for NetMed. Plenty of work. Flexible. You are assigned your own doctors. Work is due in 24 hours from the time it goes into your cue.
NetMed in MI? Very few comments here. sm
I'm checking out a handful of companies. Don't need health insurance, but trying to find a good match with full time M-F work, preferably assigned accounts. 20+ years MT experience. Love the small company I presently work for, but not quite enough work for me (I have really high line counts some days, but other days are terrible with shortage of work) Unfortunately, the docs from the teaching hospitals have a very inconsistent dictation load, and my income is being affected by this, thus I am pursuing a different company. Thanks for any input.

Just curious what accounts your friend was talking about. We try to take care of our MT's so this concerns me. Any feedback would be great.
Anyone heard of NetMed and how are they?

I run NetMed and I am just trying to find out what the opinion out there is our the company.  We have never missed paying an invoice to an MT and all the MT's are US based.  Please let me know if you have heard anything positive or negative.


Thanks


I worked at NetMed for a while too. sm
I worked there for maybe 2 months but it just did not work out. The people there were very nice and I never had a problem with being paid. If I had computer problems, there was always somebody who would call back right away. They also have a mentoring program too. But I thought they used Vianetta or something like that. Either way, I enjoyed working for them. I would recommend them to anybody.
any info on NetMed?
Can't find much about it.  Thanks!
netmed workers
I tested for the company called Net Med Transcription and was just wondering if anyone out there works for them and if they like, dislike them?
Is anyone familiar with NetMed?
I am trying to find out if anyone knows anything about NetMed.  Are they US based?  Good or bad experience, etc.  Thanks

NetMed must have changed a lot in 5 years. sm
I worked for them for 3-4 months. We were not a good fit for each other. I was having a hard time meeting QA. That said, I thought they were good to work for. They bent over backwards to help me get with the program. I never had any trouble with getting help for any problems and the tech people were great at getting back to you with answers. My mentor gal was great too.

But that was just my experience.
Another good company - NetMed nm

Try calling the Corporate office for Foxboro and see what you get. I worked in New Jersey and the site closed and corporate there is where you have to call for things. Hope this helps.
Computers

What type of computers do most of you prefer to do transcription? Laptops or desktops? And if you do use laptops do any of you travel and take your work?


Some of us use our own computers, though.

TT computers
They will lease one for a pretty reasonable fee, $9.00 a pay period. Plus, they are go out of their way to help their MTs, speaking from personal experience.
I know just about enough about computers

to be dangerous.  Mostly when things go squirrely I just close down everything I can, reboot and cross my fingers.  Amazing how many problems are solved that way.  But I guess I should not even own the computer at all, by some people's reasoning.


I had a courier job once, briefly.  I used my personal car to deliver packages from point A to point B.  To me a car is a thing with four wheels on the ground and one in my hands.  I don't really know much about the internal combustion engine, don't really want to know much.  (I do know how to open the hood and stare at the engine - which is all most guys know too - then jiggle a wire or two, shake my head, close the hood and call AAA.)  I can do a jump start. I know what to do if it's flooded.  I know where the various fluids go.  End of my automotive expertise.


If I were really stranded somewhere, I might try the bent-hairpin trick, but there are people whose sole area of expertise is diagnosing and fixing cars!  Others whose duty is to haul you there.  There are people whose area of expertise is to fix computer problems.  If I think my efforts might mess things up worse, you bet I'm calling tech support!  Don't get between me and the phone.


Computers
Doubt they'll remove any software but they will quit paying for the antivirus so you won't be able to get the updates anymore once the switch to Triton has taken place.
Anyone with NetMed? If so, do you still have to pay a rental fee for software/equipment? nm
s
Can anybody give me feedback on NetMed? Email if you would like to. nm

Get a KVM switch and you can tie your computers together with (sm)

one keyboard, one monitor and one mouse.  Try Circuit City they have them.  Good luck.


Yes they do lease computers

spheris computers
When I worked for them the computer crashed enough on its own...it didn't need any help.  The screen would go blue and it would say something like beginning dump of physical memory.   I was told it wasn't a problem until it did it several times per shift..then they would replace it.
Spheris computers
I have had several lemons too. It is not the computers that are lemons, it is the management and the company who are lemons.
those new spheris computers
Has anyone noticed how they log on to your computer and rearrange your desktop if they don't like how it looks?  Or how they block you from using normal, everyday websites on the brand new computers? LOL  We are trusted with private medical information but the company has nothing better to do than to spy on everyone and make them feel belittled.  I don't think that is very good for morale.
OSi used to supply computers - not sure if they still do

3 computers 1 connection
Does anybody work on 3 computers at the same time with only 1 DSL connection? Could you tell me how to do it so each is secure from the other and compliant? Thanks in advance for any information.
They do provide computers, but there is a
charge per pay period, I think about $9 or so. You cannot use the new Window Vista. Everything else they will download if you use your own computer. I took a pay cut to go there but am very happy, and they do have bonus incentives. The accounts are pretty decent. Staff is extremely friendly and cooperative.
I also know a QA with 3 computers for 3 companies
Also on salary not paid by the line.
Focus Computers
I believe that you have to own your own computer.  I work as an IC so I do use my own equipment and write it off at the end of the year for tax purposes.  They supply the software that you need to complete the dictations (EditScript).
