            • Just because you obviously could not make the grade, does not mean others cannot. nm - Another happy MDIer

              • SBC doesn't allow MTs. Many long distance providers don't anymore because of how many minutes - you go through.

So, I guess you could maybe get by with less than 1000 a day, although the incentive tier would make it worth your while to do a bit more.  I am using ExText, and yes, I find it easy to use, but then I used it for a year with another company.  I think their other platform is Mongoose, and I know nothing about that, so really cannot say.

Yes, they are hiring now.  In fact, there is a $500 sign-on bonus.  I think it is all just acute care.  I'm sure they would love to have someone with your experience.  Rhonda Durham is the recruiter.  I am sure she could answer any of your questions.  I am happy to help too, if I can, but I am relatively new.  The account I am working on is mostly psych, it seems, and I am loving it.

Another nice thing, their benefits start after 60 days, not 90 like most.

Good luck to you.

Does anyone care to share any opinions on either of these companies? 

Thanks in Advance!!

You can get unlimited LD for $24.95 with no additional charges, no limit to US, Canada, and Puerto Rico, free if you refer 3.  If you want information, email me.   

Base rate is $49.95, plus taxes and what-not.  I explained to them when I signed up that I was using it to access dictation files from a hospital, and after talking with a manager, they told me it was okay, that my account would probably still be flagged for high usage, but they would note it on the account ... whew! 

I have also used The Neighborhood in the past by MCI (www.theneighborhood.com) and they assured me that unlimited meant unlimited ... no matter what you use it for.

Good luck!

I also currently work for this company and verify that they just informed us (3/18/08) that they were cutting our compensation by 10%.  They have bounced paychecks, convieniently not mailed out checks, lost checks.  I am not planning on staying on and do not recommend working for this company.
