any previous or current MRC-MD employees here? sm

Can you give my any pros or cons? Is platform productive? Plenty of work? Alot of ESLs? Are they nice people to work for? thanks


My current job allowed 4 hours of training pay. The previous
job allowed an extra 25% of your line rate for 3 days.  I don't think there is what I call an industry standard for training. 
Rapid Transcript, Inc- Does anyone have any recent info on this company...current/previous employees
I am wondering about anyone who has recently or is currently working for this company...any input is appreciated. There is some Bad talk about non-payment in the search archives from 2003-2004, but no recent talk. Just curious. :)
I'm not sure how it accrues, but doesn't start

until after 90 days and equals 10 days/year up to 5 years and then goes up after that.   I'm a new hire myself and I may not have that 100% correct, but pretty close.    There are 6 paid holidays, as someone else already stated.   Much better than most companies. 


They also have incentive tiers, so if you are a high producer you can really make some $$. 


This company's name doesn't start with a "K", but......
sorry you had the same experience with another company. It stinks when you are told you have failed a test but aren't given any further details.
This is a person trying to start a business, doesn't
sound like she has any firm accounts yet and the work will be sporadic at best.   If you need to make a living doesn't sound like this is a good choice. 
Anyone else new with MedWare still waiting on your first check? DD doesn't start until

Why would you come onto this board and start this? Are you
trying to get everyone worked up? These people are good to us and they deserve better.
Not happy? You are free to start your own board, to

you're trying to start trouble on the other board too. Get a life. nm

This is a networking board for current events in MT
This is a current event that has obviously sparked a lot of concern within the MTs on this board.  Obviously since this topic has been discussed so much it is the interest of quite a few people. This is a life-changing event for almost 500 people, and for some their only means of networking to discuss what concerns them.  I apologize that it has bothered you, but at the moment it is my only connection to my fellow workers going through the same things.  Please bear with us or skip over the posts. 
Still doesn't belong on this board. nm

Just go to MQ board and read, form your opinion from current employees (nm)

Some of us are finding another board that doesn't delete our posts
.
Doesn't this board not allow posts or ads by companies that outsource?

TransHealth has some that start the next month after you start work. nm

Doesn't apply if your OSI account doesn't use Ichart.
It is the Ichart only for OSi where you are cheated.
Previous employee
The pay is HORRIBLE!!!!
previous message said, you have

to go their to train, etc.


I should have said, you have to go there to train, etc.  I think that is what the sheesh was about. 


 


I did for about a day at one of my previous jobs. sm
My employer insisted on having it installed even though I already had cable internet.  It was SO slow, unbelievably slow.  I had to wait for the typing to catch up.  If it's the only thing you can get, that's one thing -- but if you can get DSL or cable, don't do ISDN.  A couple girls at my previous job still have it out of necessity, but I hated it.
Previous employee
I did not like it at all. I did not like their supervisor. She was always on vacation taking cruises, etc. I do not like MT World software. I also do not like typing pools.
Previous employee!

Is there any possible way we can corresponsd via email?


This is exactly what a previous poster was
talking about.  These companies hold the contract over your head as use them as a scare tactic.  Most of us are doing this to make money to pay bills, help our kids, etc. and I'll be damned if they are going to dictate to me how much money I can make when an opportunity comes along to work part time with more money. 
Previous post
Attention to administrator..  Please remove my full name from the post I just put up.  It should only have the initials JMD rather than a full name
previous post
Thanks for the info. !
Did you have previous insurance before? sm
Maybe I am not understanding, but I just got Blue Cross and they tried the 12 month wait on me too and would not cover a scan.  When they found out I had no lapse in coverage with my previous insurance that I had before starting with them then they dropped the 12 month wait on me.  So I am wondering if you had insurance up until before you got Blue Cross and if this would apply to you.
Previous post

It is CMTI or Certified Medical Transcription Inc out of Florida  -- sorry I omitted, but was really tired last night due to the heat here.


And according to previous employees .... sm
That is if you are lucky enough to actually receive a pay check from the company for work completed. 
might as well stay at your previous job
I ran out of work on my third day here. I'm extremely disappointed. I left my last job due to lack of work, and then I come here with high hopes and poof - I run out of work. I may see about returning to my previous employer.
previous email
There was a previous email by the owner earlier this summer in which she said May was the lightest month of dictation in probably the history of the company. I'm assuming other months recently have been light, too (economy?, split contracts with another company?), but it would be appreciated to have that addressed directly.
Um, that's exactly what was said in the previous post. nm

TT doesn't pay for spaces or ExText doesn't

Sorry. Mean to sent previous question to respondent below.
Sorry about that
How bizarre! Vianeta was the previous sm
platform used by my employer.  I actually liked it.  There were some days when it was slow, but overall I would not be afraid to use it.  Different companies use it, so it must be tweaked for the individual companies I would imagine. 
From multiple previous posts there is no
set line rate, several variables involved, but most say it is very hard to get lines and pay is low. 
you can search previous posts, sm
no complaints here, but some people have had problems, work is there, pay is on time, they pay downtime if work does run out, insurance is good BCBS
If you check my previous posts...
I did explain my experience with them.
Previous posts were deleted (sm)
They were NOT talking about the resumes being fake.  Some earlier posts had said they would post some names of applicants for you to ask them what the name of their company was because they weren't revealing their identity.  They did list a few names but the post containing the names was soon deleted.  So, they were weren't meaning the resumes were fake, they meant that they had listed fake names.
What happened to previous post
What do you mean choose from the ones no one wanted. What account is this on? Initials only pls.

Update on previous post
Forget the above. Not with them already. Believe what you read in the archives. Trust other people's experience. Still waiting for my check as well. The account was fine, that was not the problem. Just to update and revoke the above. My conscience could not let this stay. Happy Holidays and good luck in your search for a great place to work.
tip for copying from previous reports
You can copy from some of *your* previous reports, and not just from a day back. Open a second window, log into Bayscribe (now you will have 2 Bayscribe windows open), go into My Account - Reports Summary - and then click on the alternate date box. A calendar will pop up. If you keep track of your reports and know that last week you did a report by Dr. X you can go in by date and pull up the reports you did and then copy from one into your other Bayscribe window.

If you need a sample or 2 from a difficult doctor that you haven't done before or maybe not this specific report type, ask your supervisor and she should be able to get you some.
Change previous post
Actually, need to alter my previous post slighlty - they pay 4 for VR/ 8 for straight for Editscript and, I think, a little bit more for their other platform (do not remember the name).  They actually have one of the best line rates for VR that I have come across. 
I agree with the previous post
other than if you were working at McDonald's with nobody there to train you and you are just standing there waiting, you ARE STILL GETTING PAID.
I don't have an answer for your previous question............sm
but I'll talk to ya, GP!

Sorry to hear you are caught in the blizzard of '09. My friend's sister lives in Fayetteville and says it is pretty darned rough up there. Stay warm and keep safe. Hope you will have power back on soon.
You misread reponse previous to last
The lead Editor was not the moody, hard to get along with person. Do not now if she is there now though. Stay away from the owner-bipolar/psycho personality.
Answered you on a previous post but way
down the page and did not see that. I have been in this field of work now for almost 40 years. I do VR and love it and make what I want but having said that, a person that allows someone to walk all over them is responsible, not the MTSOs. If more would just revolt, they might see a change but probably not, gone on too long now. People sit around and wait for work for days, weeks? What the heck is up with that? It is because people here do not want to give up the comfort of home and don’t search for other employment.
Should clarify my previous post above
my speed in straight transcription is 130-140, heavens knows what it is with editing.
I agree with the previous poster and
if you use DocQScribe and offer statutory employment, contact me. 
Get a grip - The previous ISR rate was 30% cut sm
of your base rate. This is 7% more, hardly HUGE. And way better than the flat line rates that most places are paying.
Same for TransTech - have access to previous reports
