I was thinking about applying for this company
myself as an SE but I had been reading some bad things about it and got scared off. However, I have read some very good things about MQ too!
Oh no! I was thinking about applying with that company.

Don't you think other MTs thinking of applying with this company would have liked the same info?

Is Keystrokes a big company or small? I am thinking of applying. Time to leave the Q. nm
The sad thing is that I do not even think they would notice if I left. I am a high producer but not very vocal and they seem to have forgotten about me :(
Question for MQ employees that carry insurance. sm
What happens if you don't make your line rate in a pay period?
Does MQ let you go? Or do you work "off the clock" and not report your hours so you can meet your rate?
As a service, I do not carry liability insurance...on contracts,
I line out that clause. The liability for MT work is extremely low. I personally have never heard of any MT being brought into court on a transcription. Has anyone else? Therefore, liability insurance is either a) not necessary or b) if purchased, would be really really cheap as the liability is practically nonexistent. None of my clients has ever been offended that I don't carry liability. I simply tell 'em that no body does.
I was thinking about applying
I work every sunday now, and I would really like my weekends free. I also don't like the software too much, and I have to pay LD.
Thanks for all the info you gave me.

Thank you. I appreciate your reply.
I was thinking of applying
Do they pay more than 3 cpl for editing? I need to make some money and that's the best offer I've seen so far and it's pitiful from what I've read on the boards.

I've heard a lot about VR and the VR platform. Are all their accounts on this?

I'm thinking about applying at Keystrokes for a radiology position.
Could anyone tell me if they pay per report, how much they start you with and if there are increases along the way. Have seen past post with different amounts and have seen a post in the archives stating 1.25 per report and 1.25 more for reports over 2 minutes long.
What line count problem? I'm thinking about applying

Wow. One of my friends was thinking of applying there. I'll have to caution her!
I had no idea they were so bad! They offered me a position a year ago, but I turned it down and ended up going with Keystrokes, and I'm glad that I did! They kick you off the system when there is low work? That's screwed up!

MQ Houston office closing? I was thinking about applying but I just heard that they are closing

The whole idea of her having to carry E and O
is ridiculous. This is something that the AAMT tried to cook up years ago.
I'm thinking I work for the same company....
but the queue shut off is new to me. Was this in an email or a recent conference call?
I went through a recruiting company, thinking they
would have leads on companies who might not want to post an ad for some reason and that I could find something paying better, etc. They represented 2 companies I think, one of which I had already tested for, been offered a position, and rejected it. They knew this but wanted me to go through the process again. I did and they offere me the same thing that I was offered before and I again turned down the position and then never heard from the recruiting company again. It was the same company mentioned by someone else.
I recommend posting your resume on all the free job boards and also applying to any company that meets your needs, as far as employee/IC and hours, etc.
I have posted my resume before and got probably a dozen responses, most of which I weeded out right away due to low offers. I tested for a few and was offered positions with all of them and even took one of the offers, but that company eventually went out of business. I posted my resume again and months went by with not even 1 offer, and then several months later I got a few offers. You just never know what the response will be.
She was probably the nursing supervisor. They still carry

Not accurate. Must be another company your friend is thinking of.

I was thinking the same thing. I'd definitely pass on this company. nm
How many baskets should one carry in this line of work.....

Part timers often do not carry their weight.
forcing the full timers to pick up the slack and resent them.
Just thinking it may be nice for others to know the name of the company IF they happen to hire
again in the future.......
I am thinking about starting with eMTS. Please let me know good or bad on this company.
Account is 65 cpl without spaces.
I'm thinking NOT..on the company's name. Probably a company with a bad rap
wanting to post anonymously so people will actually apply, but I could be wrong...
If you know who the insurance company
is, contact them. If that is who you have been calling, contact HR at your company. SOmetimes it does take a while to get the cards, as long as you have the information on the insurance company you can give to treating facility, if you need it, you should be covered.
Anyone know what company OSI's health insurance is through?
TIA
Insurance question. The company SM
I now work for has something called consumer driven insurance.
I would like to know the names of MT companies that offer HMO or PPO. I do not care what the premiums are; just if they offer regular health insurance and not the above-mentioned type.
Please help. Thank you.
Just dealt with that with my insurance company
Makes me insane!! Health insurance issues are pretty important to me, especially when the bills are a couple thousand dollars. It would be nice to be able to understand what they are saying and be understood!
At first I was thinking that you were being unrealistic, not thinking about taxes, benefits, etc. bu
surprised to find that you are not asking the moon. Let me clarify a few things: Rates charged are not as high as 0.25 per line, but no one that has U.S. employees goes as low as 0.115 or they would not be able to pay their bills. A more realistic range is 0.125-0.165, and that top end is hard to find, most falling at 0.14-0.15 per line.
The rates of pay you propose are very reasonable IF the following is true: These are seasoned MTs who do not need a lot of hand-holding, QA or blanks filled in, unless a very difficult/impossible doctor.
How about a scale based on experience and accuracy of 0.09 - 0.105 per line (acute care), and $1.15-$1.30 per report (radiology)?
The VR one is tough as everyone, MTs and MTSOs and facilities are still feeling their way on this. As an MTSO who was an MT, I feel that VR editing is as difficult to do as regular transcription. I don't think that it should be substantially less pay or charged less as the end product is still the same.
Funny thing here? My company already follows that scale. We should work together, not at odds, to reinforce this industry and bring it back to where it should be, right here in the U.S.A. with a decent paycheck.
Looking for a company with affordable health insurance.
Anybody work for Proscript or DSG, can you tell me how much you pay for husband and wife coverage? Thanks so much.
I like the insurance they have now. It is cheaper than the one that my husband's company has. s
They have been trying to get new insurance for over a year but do not have the participation requirement filled, as they have let everyone know. However, I spoke to a manager who told me that the one that they have been working on since December looks good, just taking longer than expected as they keep asking questions.
