Sorry I forgot to mention I work for Keystrokes..never worked for Medscribe (nm)

I have worked where I am for almost 10 years for a small MTSO out of California but have only gotten 2 raises in that time because she claims her lines rates are low in order for her to compete.

You don't have to look up addresses or spelling of doctors' names (for one of the docs she gave me an Excel spreadsheet, but other than that you just transcribe it as it sounds). She doesn't want you to have to spend your time researching things like that that are easy for her to fill in.

They go on and on about their quick TAT..... it doesn't really matter how fast they do the work if it's not done right. In my experience of editing it, almost none of it can go straight through to the facility they way it is. I've corrected things like LASIX surgery and Foot-in-Mouth disease. What they don't know, they make up as to not leave a blank, and then claim 98% accuracy.
forgot to mention..
while working as an employee for our hospitals, she worked under the vendor for the SAME hospitals but strictly doing ER work. Really interesting.
Forgot to mention that also
I was NOT complaining about my company. I have a great company with good people. They use ExText which is very slow. So my complaint is about the server only.
Don't be so quick to judge people. The only time I will air my complaints about a company (haven't had to so far) is if I feel it will save others in the future.
Oh ya forgot to mention...sm
They told me because I was not meeting my production that I would have to pay for my health insurance on my own until I met my production. Well, how can I meet production when I never have work?! Doesn't seem fair at all.
forgot to mention
Oh I forgot to add they are suppose to be adding a new system and I do not think you will have to look all that stuff up.............I know it was delayed because of some MTs quitting on them.....me being one of them because I could not handle working my full-time job and that.
So it might be a nice fit for you. Good luck!
Forgot to mention
that the initial dictionary entry I provided comes from Merriam Webster's dictionary.
Forgot to mention
Most people don't consider a living wage to mean a wage that qualifies them for foodstamps and free lunches!
I forgot to mention....sm
that they also have holiday pay as well along with their other benefits...
I forgot the mention...
I got to rambling so much I forgot the point I was trying to make - as far as typos, grammar mistakes, etc. when it comes to the posts on this board, I think everybody really needs to lighten up. As MTs we have to be so careful in our work - that's what we're paid for and we do our best to get it right. When it comes to chatting like this, speaking for myself, I just type along sometimes and don't pay much attention to what's coming out. Sometimes I look back on the posts and see mistakes I made and cringe. Can't this be a place where our typing isn't scrutinized? If everyone has to work so hard to impress the other MTs on this board, where's the fun in that? I personally don't feel the need to impress anyone - I just feel like chatting sometimes.
the posts on this board, I have commented on this and have read a few others abo, and I think everyone needs to
See what I mean? ...forgot TO mention...!!
and I'm sure there are others inside the post!!
In addition you forgot to mention...sm
that the sky is falling and we'll all lose our jobs fears were prevalent back when PCs were introduced, and we're all still working. With the government requiring more and more documentation to be made electronically there's still a ton of work to be done and no VR system is going to have it perfect, ever.
forgot to mention the tax benefits
as well as the investment options.
P.S. Forgot to mention, my reg acct (sm)
has 4 or 5 hospitals within the same hospital system. Same doctors, same format, same everything. It's just whatever comes up w/o me actually having to change anything.
I know the feeling. I forgot to mention above
that I just came to this conclusion myself. I am so looking forward to my last day. Its only about 6 days away, not that I'm counting or anything. I have already started my new job, in training, so its a bit tiring and stressful, but still so liberating. I've already had more communication from my new job over the last 2 days than I have had from MQ in years. I nearly cried a few times, which was so lame, but it was just from people actually talking to me and being nice. Isn't that sad? I can't say that I should have done it sooner - everything in its own time, but its time for me, for sure! I wish you the same success and happiness. 
Forgot to mention, the company I went to between MQ and where I am now (sm)
was MDI-MD.
I forgot to mention, MDI will reimburse you a little bit monthly for LD.
I forget the amount, but ask about reimbursement for long distance charges. They also have accounts that are on waveplayer, so no long distance needed. Check on things.
You forgot to mention construction downturns
where skilled craftsman may be totally out of work for weeks or months.
Forgot to mention in previous post below
CBay does not have enough Indians to MT for the Q, so they signed a 6-million line contract to get SPi to start outsourcing it to the Philippines Situation will not get better!
Good point! I forgot to mention that earlier!
.
Oh, I forgot to mention....must be flexible and have all day to devote to waiting for work.
The work fluctuates too much. Feast or famine there.
I understand your point. And I forgot to mention. I also get a bonus every paycheck
because I do not have to send a lot of reports to QA. In other words, they are constantly finding ways to reward us. Believe me there is so much work out there I have no time to even look elsewhere. As a matter of fact, I have to get to work now. But, I did not mean to sound rude. I just think to each his own. If you have a better job, good for you. I am not sorry that I have to do an honest days' work for an honest days' pay. At least I will sleep at night knowing my job is safe and the bills are paid. :)
aSorry, forgot to mention that they will contct you via e-mail when you are eligible.

congrats and welcome to Keystrokes...

Oops, forgot to say for Keystrokes. nm
Congrats to both of you!
I'm glad you are both happy with your jobs. :)
Congrats! nm

Congrats!!
Figured I'd say it.
congrats
thank you very much!!!!!!!
Congrats! :) I wish they had at least NM
let me know whether or not I passed the test or that they filled the position already! Oh well, I suppose it was good experience! :)
The good new is, I was offered a position with 2 other companies (Echo and The Word Pros) and was able to accept both as The Word Pros is a p.r.n. position (sort of like a temp agency--you take work only if you want to).
I hope you love it at PMSI!
Just Me
Congrats.
Good luck in your new adventure.
Congrats
You must have a wonderful account with a wonderful platform. Can't be MediTech, is it? You were lucky to get a good account with good dictators and easy platform. Right place at the right time. Think of the money you will be raking in:)
Congrats!
Been there for a month and i love it. I have plenty of work and everyone has been very helpful as I learn the accounts, etc. They expect a lot but they give a lot too! Good luck and welcome!
Congrats!!!!
Would you mind e-mailing me with any info that you've been given. I'm not to that stage yet so until I get to talk with them some more I'm flying blind :(
Congrats to you!!!
I like to post non-critical questions on here as well. I hate to bug my supervisor unless I have to. I posted a question Sunday and got rude comments because of it. At the time, I didn't have my paperwork to look up an answer. I don't think there is anything wrong with asking questions here. That is what this board is for. I have asked my supervisor a ton of questions today and got very quick responses. I think people like to post rude comments because they either have nothing better to do or are just miserable in life. Who knows, maybe they hate their job and resent us for going after a better one. Anyway, post away. I don't mind answering anybody's questions if I know the answer and I definitely appreciate the answers I get on here! :)
Congrats!
Congratulations on the job!! Let us know how you feel WHEN YOU QUIT THIS ONE! LOL. Years ago, I was a regional manager for Transcend. They let me work my way up from at home Transcriptionist to QA to Transcription supervisor to Regional manager. At that time they were a great company to work for, especially since my local company was bought by them, and the transition was pretty good. I am not there now because I have kids and cannot travel anymore, plus I moved to a southern state where they did not have a presence then (no internet transcribing back then, only expensive long distance). If they are the same company as then, you should have a good career. Keep in touch with us, to let us know how it goes!
Congrats.........
for getting out of the Q!   
Congrats! Let us know how you do!

Congrats to you. Did you ask during sm
x
Congrats!!!
You're going to absolutely love working for MDI. No games, no hassles, great communication, and for the most part really decent dictators, too.
Congrats on getting on board... :-)
Congrats! sm
Do have any experience doing medical billing? I've been looking for July for a billing position to no avail. I have 33 years as an MT. Unfortunately I also live in a very rural, job-depressed area. Again congratulations and good luck!
Congrats to you!!!
See, good things always come to pass... and it has for you! Happy Holidays and congrats.
Congrats...
I believe you'll be very happy with your decision to go with MDI-MD. I just can't sing their praises loudly enough.
Welcome aboard :D
Congrats
Too bad some unhappy MTs have to hit the Haterade so hard!! You go, girlies!!! Congrats....Gotta make the money! 
Congrats to both of you
.........
Congrats!
You are going to love it...welcome aboard! Sounds like you may well be on the account I'm on. Will you be on the Escription platform? If you're on the account I'm on, I think you'll enjoy it.
Congrats again :-)
Congrats!
You'll love it here, I promise!
Congrats
Congratulations and welcome to the Keystrokes family. They are wonderful to work with and for. I am sure you will enjoy working with them.
Congrats
Nothing to add, but I just accepted a position also. I start on the 18th, hopefully. I was told 12,000 lines per pay period minimum, but I am pretty sure we still have to work the entire shift, even if we meet our lines. I can usually do 1200 lines in 4 hours, so I guess I will make some extra money (provided there is plenty of work!)
Good luck!
