QED Transcription, Bentonville, Arkansas
QED hires part-time and full-time transcriptionists, with a required minimum of 600 lines per day for PT and 1200 lines per day full time. A line is considered 58 characters on some of the more difficult accounts, 60 characters on some of the other accounts (as I understand it). Any lines above 6000 lines per week is 7 cents a line, and then 8 cents per line for a certain number of lines over that--but that is very difficult to attain. (The pay scale is a little bit more complicated than that, but that is basically it).
They hire both acute care transcriptionists with many years experience and clinical transcriptionists who just finishing training. They have quite a few different accounts to meet the needs of various transcriptionists.
They are struggling to keep their transcriptionists in work and are doing a fairly good juggling act, but the trade-off for transcriptionists is a less flexible schedule than what one might prefer. Instead of requiring a certain number of lines per day at your leisure, they require you to choose a schedule that works for you and stick with it--i.e., not be away from your desk more than 15 minutes during your chosen time, begin on time, end on time, etc. or contact the help desk if you must deviate from your schedule, be counted tardy if you are not there on the dot, etc. Also, there are constant requests for working on the weekends, AFTER you have satisfied your commitment for during your regular schedule.
To summarize, the pay is low; the schedule is not as flexible as it could be. They do provide the equipment, and you might or might not like that arrangement. You certainly can't pop over and check your own e-mail while you are on their computer.
They do offer health and dental insurance for full-time employees, paid days off and unpaid days off.
One more thing, low pay notwithstanding, they are really sticklers for accuracy, but I've found it easy to meet the accuracy requirements.
For reference, I have 20 years' transcription experience in a variety of settings, including acute care and clinical.
There are many, many ESL dictators in the accounts that I am assigned to.

Netscript...in Arkansas?
Are you talking about the company located in Clarksville Arkansas?? I just talked with them today and am trying to find some info about them. They sent me a contract wanting my bank account info and SSN. I didn't want to give that out unless they were legitimate.
Aren't they in Arkansas?
What do you want to know? I might be able to help if you mean QED in Arkansas.

Transcription Company
Hello all, by chance has anyone there heard of Brown and Myers transcripion services? I really need some feedback. Thanks.
I don't think this is a transcription company.
Found the website www.yoursafeandhappyhome.com. Then if you Google the lady who runs this site, you will see she is targeting SAHMs with all kinds of different WAH jobs. Tons of red flags on this one for me.
Does anyone know of a transcription company
that you can do training through and also work for?
TNI Transcription Company
Has anyone heard of this company, good or bad? I checked the archives, but couldn't find anything on it. Thank you.
OSi Transcription Company
Just curious if anyone can tell me if it is hard or not to get your line count in for OSi. I'm currently in the process of taking the tests for the job. I am working for MQ right now and it's horrible with getting your line count. I make it, but I have to work my butt off to get it. I was forced into MQ and now am trying to find something better. Any information would be much appreciated. Also, what's their pay like? Thanks a bunch!
T-C Transcription Company
When I talked to the recruiter she said they paid for spaces. I worked for a company that did not pay for spaces now and I am not going to go that route again I do not think. I think the pay for on the low side too for my years of exp. She told me FT and PT get paid the same and only the third shift makes more. Insurance was not bad and it compatible with what I am paying now. The only thing that was told to me was 500 lines for PT. I think I will ask more questions before I fill out paperwork. Thanks for input
Actually, I did run my own transcription company (sm)
I had 4 girls working for me, plus I did the transcription, payroll, getting the tapes and delivering them to the girls and delivering the transcription - yes I did not have digital.
The girls got what I got right across the board. I never, ever took a cut from them. I incurred my own expenses of gas, phone. That was it. I worked out of my home and did it.
As an IC, you have the right to charge what you think the job is worth. Do you shop around for a better price when having repairs done in your home? Do you automatically take the cheapest one? Or do you take the one that costs more, but has the experience and the know how to get the job done and get it done correctly?
That is my point. The MTSOs say they cannot pay above a certain amount when in fact I would bet that they can. Think about it. Not in a stressed out kind of way, but just think about it.
Company info on OSI Transcription
Has anyone ever worked for OSI Transcription? If so, are they decent? I just did the online transcription test and am awaiting their answer. I would hate to give up my local jobs for this one and find out they are not a decent company.
Thanks,

Company info on OSI Transcription
I've only been with them a few weeks, but so far, its been okay. Have had some minor issues regarding equipment and work, but these were resolved to my satisfaction by my manager. First pay was on time without any problems. If things continue as they are, I will probably be with them for a long while.

MTC - medical transcription company.
 Can anyone tell me anything about this company, particularly what you think of their line rates.
transcription and typing company
Questions to ask the company your work for: How often are the lights turned off? How often does your phone get shut off? How often do you lose internet service for nonpayment? How may checks -payroll or otherwise did you bounce this month, this year? How many IRA accounts did you take money from? How is your inhouse turn around for employees? How many excuses can you come up with for my late payroll? You want a schedule of my availability, but do you offer work to keep me busy during the time you insist I be available? How many times have you paid your full time employees late? How many times have you asked your fulltime employees to invest $17,500 into your company while bouncing checks? How much did you spend on a christmas party without bonuses paid to your employees and even paying them AFTER the holidays late?
You would be surprised what one company's answer would be. Home base = PA. Beware people. What is good today is not always good tomorrow. Am I bitter, no. My dream job as an inhouse employee was shattered when my eyes were open. And I left on my own because of it.
Northeast Transcription Company
Has anyone worked for Northeast Transcription. Is it a good company to work for?
Not Sure Which Transcription Company to Supplement With
I'm really in a quandry! I've been an IC but also handle overflow and get some work from another local transcription company. Right now, it's just not enough, and I'm not sure if more is coming! I've been doing this for almost 20 years. I still can't tell from the posts which is the best national company to supplement with. It seems that if there are negative posts about a company, they get wiped off the boards! Can you give me your opinions?

Integrity Transcription Company
In reply to your question regarding Integrity. It has to one of the greatest companies out there. The owners are wonderful, honest and ahead of the rest.
