Is Precyse a good company?
I am supposed to talk with them soon after testing out okay. Just curious if they are good company to work for.
Does anyone know if Precyse Solutions is a good company that pays on time and has plenty
of work?
Company basically run out of India.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
There is a lot to be said for good communication and plenty of work.
Trust me. It could be worse and I should know. I have worked for some companies that I WISHED paid 10 cents a line and had poor communication and lack of work. You cannot go wrong it sounds with what your doing. I could only pray for that.
i didn't find the communication to be good
well, it was as long as i said everything was rosey. Soon as things weren't so perfect, they became much less than friendly.
Yes. Pay on time, good communication, stay busy.nm

Poor company communication I would say.
I think it is best to avoid gossips/fears is to keep all abreast of company doings on. What can it hurt, sure hurts when there is misinformation (from fear factors)
I sure agree with you about the lousy communication. It seemed to be a company wide

AllHealth in GA - Good company, good equipment, any info about this company? (sm)
What type of work do they have? Any op reports? Appreciate any info.
Good luck with precyse
Over 10 years experience, worked there for years, still not make 9 cpl
Precyse good or bad and info?
I am wanting to know about Precyse, good or bad as far as communication, supervisors, training, and platforms. Information regarding radiology would be appreciated. If their platform is anything like their test, I like it.
Precyse rate was good but they were always running out of work.

Are any MTs still with Precyse that complained of losing their good accts a few months ago? If so,
s
Don't Precyse and the other company you mentioned
v
Precyse a MT-friendly company?
Who works there right now and is happy or not, and why?
How is the flexibility, workflow, hardware/software, benefits, health insurance, PTO, etc. ? TIA
Precyse! Searched company board forum and
archives, but only found 1 post that they use DQS. Saw their ad for QA position, and it sounds great to me! I have the qualifications for sure, but am nervous about the company itself! Any info? My only desires at this point are honesty/integrity, and a safe future! Not too much to ask for! Can anyone share any info on Precyse? Thanks so much!
I see Precyse is hiring for new accounts. Would appreciate recent info on this company. (sm)
most of what I have found is pretty old. Are the current employes squelched when it comes to giving out information regarding the company or are they just so busy they don't have time to mess around on the boards? E-mail if you are concerned about being flamed or don't want to post for whatever reason. TIA.
Does anyone recommend a pretty good company that is good to work for, pay always on time and plenty
of work. I know that is asking a lot, but just curious?
Strictly IC, good company, hard accounts, good platform.
Good pay, always on time, no direct deposit though.
Is Transcend a good company with a good platform to work on. They are advertising.
:
Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!

TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
and flexible.
I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
TransTech is a good company. Debbie is the owner and a good one at that! nm

Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
I know JLG and they are a good company with a good group of people
I joined JLG about 9 month ago and I am thrilled with the experience that I have had. Although the company has been around for 20+ years, a group of good industry veterans who know how to operate fairly to both employees and clients have joined the company in the past year. I followed my manager from another giant company.
I have also worked on this account and it was plauged with problems from the start. The hospital required the account to be implemented in a matter of days, there were technical issues and the hospital management staff was new and the employees were mad because transcription had been outsourced. Personally, I won't miss this client but good luck to those that get it.
There is plenty of work at JLG and I have already been advised on my new assignments
DSG is a good company. The sound quality is good sm
but I don't understand why they are hiring. In the a.m. was have NO work. The afternoon and evenings do have more work though.
or maybe it's really a good company. Give me a break. If a company isn't talked about sm
on here, good or bad, it's probably too small to matter and does not offer benefits or anything at all.
Good company, with good incentive SM
pay scale, decent health plan for full-timers, lower end for other benefits, well organized and dependable, good platform, good support. Very heavy ESL, medium-sized community medical centers, relatively high SR pay rate because it takes longer overall to clean it up. However--good producers who put in a good workday make quite good money here.
so..basically
what I've gathered..
- MT, like most other professions, is unpredictable.
- It is possible to make 25k, but not common.
- Formal training with a program such as Career Step is not a requirement, but it would be an asset.
- There are other ways for me to become educated in the field besides a formal program.
- And, finally, you get out of it what you put into it.
I appreciate the advice and insight from all of you. I will take into consideration when making my decision. Thanks again.
Basically the same goes for me
The local physicians I work for require me to keep all the notes I transcribe. They're all stored by date. If I didn't keep them, they'd have a lot of missing files. Don't ask me what they do with them, but I print the reports directly to their printers and it never fails (twice today in fact) they're looking for the notes. Sometimes they're looking for notes that I typed 6 months ago.
Basically I'm saying
that if you don't get anywhere with your supervisor, if it bugs you that much and you are suffering for it, go to their supervisor.
Basically happy with MQ.
Line counts okay, too.
It basically means that
you will qualify to submit your finished documents directly to the facility (hospital, doctor's office, etc.) that the account is for instead of having all of your documents go through QA first. I honestly cannot remember what the initials stand for...it's Direct Submission...something...lol.
Where I am it goes basically by what you are paid - sm
The more you make the harder the dictators, though my manager does try to give an equal balance to it all and not nail you will all bad dictators in one day. She assigns out the work (no pool here) and certain awful ones get rotated between a few of us, some I get to avoid completely as others are very proficient at those particular doctors, and ditto for them. I do some docs others hate, but I like to do, and they like some of the docs I hate. On rare occasion I ask her to not give me anyone too awful as I am sick or very tired and she tried to do so, but only if she can. I don't make a habit out of doing that. But absolutely no one except the newbies get easy stuff on a consistant basis. Kind of stinks in a way, but as I said I usually get a 50/50 mix so it is not too bad. That is what your manager should do, and not play blatent favorites, that totally stinks.
That is basically the same conversation i had with them...
Said they would send me info..i got 2 wacked out samples and i asked about acct specifics and they are confused as to what exactly i want. Seems pretty disorganized to me as well!! Thanks for letting me know...much appreciated
You and me both. I basically just clean up
for brand spanking new MTs at one-third of their line rate. Depressing. But am making a little money while looking for other jobs.
I think all of these companies are basically the
when someone replies? No one is anywhere for charity anymore. Everyone has their hand in the pot these days. That is just part of life. If you think for one minute you are going to ask about a company and only receive positives, you're in for a big disappointment. Why not try the company out for yourself if you are just going to defend them anyway? It does not hurt to try, but from what I read here, there are MTs who have tried and they were not impressed. SoftScript has an advertisement almost every week, so what does that tell you? Rapid expansion? That is a big MAYBE in my opinion. Different strokes for different folks. Good luck on whatever you decide including posting here or other boards. LOL 
Right. That's what the article said, basically.
That all correct English is the same, wherever the country:
English in India may have a British hangover but by no means is it vastly different from American English or any other correct English for that matter.
She expects Indians working for American countries to have excellent English ... like hers. If only our visitor could write like that, we wouldn't be appalled.
Its odd, but they are basically a middle man, which
I personally didn't like. It was frustrating at times. Also, in my experience, we got the bottom of the barrel work from the hospital, even more than usual for a national. The pay was low at 8 cpl, which I understand is still the current pay, so I'm sure DiskR gets a big hunk of what the hospital is really paying. Obviously, I know, its business, but it seemed odder than the usual set up of working for a national. I found it would have been more pleasant just working for the hospital, because you are 100% an employee of the hospital and not Diskriter. I just did not care for the whole atmosphere, lots of cherry picking and more than usual politics, but nobody really to turn to, as the hospital didn't want to know from beans, and DR had its own issues. Very much a stuck in the middle feeling...but not a good one.
This is basically the reason that we have never....sm
been able to attain professional status as language specialists. I did try QA for a while after many years as an MT but could not believe the poor quality of the work I was seeing. It made me ill! This never would have been tolerated back in the day. No one would have even dared to apply for a position as an MT if they, at a minimum, couldn't pass a simple grammar test. Even the simple things as in this case,there vs their, tense errors, just no basic English (American) language skills. I do not see it getting better unless people are required to show they know the basics before they are hired.
Which basically reads is
that the sorority sisters at AAMT don't care about you, never did.
Basically, same experience...
I worked there for a while as an employee doing ER reports. I basically had the same experience as you regarding management pressure and unexplained line count deficiencies.
Regarding Karen, there was an MT on my account with this name. The manager that we had for ER accounts was a new manager who came over from Medware (I think that was the name) and Karen was a pet who followed her over from there. There were a lot of people who followed that manager, and, of course, they were the ones who always had work when work ran low. Unfortunately, I wasn't one of those pets. I ended up leaving and I'm very happy that I did. 
But basically you are only speaking for yourself
I read your posting above and wondered if you dislike it so much, why do it? Is there not another job you can do besides this because the way it looks most companies are headed towards VR. I will make almost $190 today on the VR I work on and I am totally loving it. I would not be unhappy if I did not, would find another business.
Basically, does she owe anyone else money? nm

I talked to a Transolutions MT and basically
she was happy with the company. I try to find out as much as I can about a company when I interview, just to file away for future reference. She was looking for part-time work, and actually said she would recommend them. So.......who knows?
I was basically just looking at the ads that are posted. Maybe it is better to place my own ad to
get a response other than the companies that are always posting.
I am an IC, and I basically type from a pool.
The work is available for me to get and return in 24 hours from the time of dictation. I have come to learn when the work is there. I do all clinic though. Some companies require ICs to have set hours, but I don't think that is right.
Of course some companies will ask when you're available, but most that know the true meaning of IC do not care what hours you work as long as you get the work back in a timely manner.
I have my own accounts as well, so that would not apply as far as getting lines because I charge all different amounts. One is subcontracted, I pick-up and deliver. IC offers flexibility at least in my eyes.
I don't know anything about Tera Nova - sorry!
so basically no platform. thanks that helps a lot.
nm
you just basically gave the same answer .sm
which is not good enough. Someone's credit could be shot BECAUSE OF SOMEONE ELSE. Then what?
Ignore it. If they are just basically e-mailing
do not feel compelled to answer an e-mail that has other MT names in it. If it is directed right at you, then answer when you get the chance. Don't feel nailed to the computer.
Now if they are using IM, that is a different story. Instant messenger is control in my honest opinion and as an IC should not be part of the deal.
If you know your accounts in and out you may want to stay and just ignore some of the e-mails that get you hot and bothered.
I also am an IC for an online company that does mass e-mails when there is work to be done, but it is not directed right at me but to all MTs on that particular account. I do not feel the need to answer each and every e-mail unless I am the only addressee. Of course, you may not know if they are blind copying, but just my opinion.
Ummmm...all your complaints are basically
While I understand your beefs with the industry, including dictators' quality, its been this way forever and ever. I've been MTing professionally for 25 years now, and my elders before me said things were always this way, back to when the doctors actually dictated in person with the MT taking notes on a steno pad. Every item is the same, including our pay rate! LOL. I find it a challenging career, but would never stay if I made anything near 15K. Despite all the challenges, shaky companies, etc., I still always minimum hit $35K. Not trying to brag, but have no idea how or why you would stick around for that poverty level income. Surely something else would better suit you, even for a short while til retirement? Here's wishing you a Happier New Year.
