I have to be honest that I know nothing about the health insurance as I do not carry it. Anyway, they are an absolute wonder of a company. Apply at www.qtmedical.com

From what I remember not very long. They are flexible, pay is decent, good dictators,
I have never had any problem with them.
Hello other ex-Genie. YOG was a wonderful company indeed. I didn't know how good I had it. Those

Try PMTKentucy for a small good company
They are small, but they are growing rapidly. They will start you as an IC, but if you are a good MT, you will be made and employee. They have posted several job openingings in the jobseeker section.
Ditto, Keystrokes is a wonderful company with wonderful people! I love working for Keystrokes!
I am just not making enough money. They are a great company though, just ask for a back up account.
anyone know good or bad about Golden Isles Medical Transcription company
Does anyone know anything good or bad about a transcription company out of Georgia called Golden Isles Medical Transcription?
First Choice Medical- flexible? weekend work

Fairly flexible but they do like a schedule. Insurance is good. Benefits are good in my opinion.
For the past week, work has been a little slower but I think that is common in every company..some days busy and other not.
Good owners, average-low pay, good dictators sm
Send out checks the next business day after they receive the bill. Only work when you want. It's a nice p.r.n. position.

Platform is user friendly. P ay is good. sm
The accounts are good for experienced MTs.
I can't say I produce more on this particular platform, but it is MT friendly. I average approximately 300 lines an hour. That is not my best, as I have done 400 lines an hour on a different platform. It all depends on the dictators.
Good luck to you. If you need flexibility, a decent line rate and don't mind being SE without benefits - go for it.
I prefer SE or IC status, so it suits me just fine.
If you have a good range of dictators...sm
I do radiology and acute care for a facility. There are some doctors I am glad I get paid by minute and there are some that I wish I was not so it all equals out. I read an article some time back about being paid by the minute of dictation is really the more fair way for Transcriptionist to be paid. I have 3-4 docs that I speed up so I do their lines in half the time but still get paid for the whole time. It works for me.
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
It is not the most MT-friendly platform, that's for sure, but if the company sm
is a good one, I wouldn't pass it up just because of Meditech. I am using it for the first time, and after a month I no longer loathe it like I did, but I cannot honestly say it is my favorite. It IS rather clunky and antiquated. Fortunately, ShortHand works as an expander, so that helps, and one of the pluses of the Meditech system is the ability to access lab, medications, other reports, etc.
Good luck to you. I am sure your trainer will have some helpful tips, or at least I hope so.
Oh good. She is wonderful
and extremely helpful.
Everybody there is, but when a new account starts up, they are quite busy, which can't really be helped, I'm sure.
Offshore can barely do good dictators, which is why

Oh, yes, and another thing, VERY FEW ESLs, good dictators!!! NM

MDI, less work? good dictators disappearing?
Is is just me? or am I getting less and less work, more and more difficult dictators, seems the account is seriously over staffed, transcribing reports on the doctors tails, and the reports I do finally get are only the MOST difficult dictators it seems....
Is our work going to India after all?
New MT Looking for Instant Text Friendly Company
Hi, Just graduating from the MTEC program and wanted to know which companies out there allow you to use Instant Text. Gotten way too used to it during school and can't give it up! TIA!
Very nice company to work for... friendly and
good QA. It is sometimes difficult to get a high line rate though. Not sure why, but maybe because headers and footers are not paid for. They do pay for spaces however. Good Luck in your decision.
Good for you!! Wonderful attitude! nm

DSG is a good fit for me, management friendly, pay on time, occasionally running out of work is one
of my biggest complaints, but it is usually not for long, just enough to upset the routine. Production incentive a plus. Sound quality depends on the account.
but if the company has dictators sm
who dictate like this then YES it is fair to test you on those. It does no good to give you a good dictator (whatever you deem to be good) and then most of the dictators of of the caliber you had on the test. It is very fair and honest to the potential employee. What happens if you test on a dictator that is good and then your account has the really bad ones? Is that fair to you or the company?
It use to be that folks in the MT profession accepted this as part of the profession and none of this was ever a point. Seems now MT has come down to lines, spaces, cpl and all the rest and forget the real reason behind this profession, THE PATIENTS!
Good dictators end up on ASR so it can only get worse. My accounts are all picked over.
:
Ummm...No, large account I'm on just has good dictators....
It's on EditScript, and I was system receiving alerts of higher priority jobs coming through and I accepted them. The dictators were by and large very good and many of the reports required minimal editing.
It's luck of the draw when it comes to being placed on an account. I am very grateful to have been hired for the account I'm on.
Sorry you apparently aren't as happy. I hope your day gets better.
Sounds good to me! Wouldn't it be wonderful to (sm)
type something every once in a while that is a little more interesting! Might help me keep my eyes open during the day.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ..........
Wonderful! Good luck and keep us posted!

Horrible company. Bad dictators,
platform has got to be the worst thing out there. They are run by a bunch of people who don't know what they are doing. They all tell you to do something different when it comes to the account specs. Impossible to make any money there.
Unlike the poster below, I did not find the ESLs good dictators at FN. sm
In fact, in my over 20 years of experience, they were the worst I have ever heard. We got way more than 3 e-mails a day, too. More like 10 to 15, beginning for help and sometimes bordering on threatening. If you are really good with ESLs, you MIGHT do okay. But who wants to put up with that?!? No bennies either. Glad I am long long gone. The grass really is greener.
Of course it's good, but with the awful dictators and the trash dictation we get anymore, this ki

Must be a small company. I have never talked to the owner of the company I work for. sm
He wouldn't have time. Why would someone talk directly to the MTSO? Most do not know (or care) about the details just the big picture.
They are really a wonderful company with little or no
turnover in staff. The owner really knows how to treat his staff well.
yes the do!! a wonderful company

Wonderful company.

Wonderful company!
I love working with MTA. Pay is good and on time. Hours are flexible (probably depending on account). Lynn is very organized and great to work for.
not flexible at all. they are scatterbrained and it was NOT a good experience.
I was so excited to work for them and it was a nightmare. QA is not a good thing at DTS.
I worked for a wonderful company. sm
It is pretty small and she will probably keep it that way. She is the best boss, very knowledgeable and willing to share the knowledge, fair wages, sits right there every day typing or proofing along with everyone else, and she turned out to be a great friend. I worked for her as long as I could but was making much more money doing radiology reports so made the decision finally to concentrate on that only. We keep in touch and some day I may be back with her, who knows.  So, I would say not all companies are the same but the really good ones just may be harder to find.
Transform is a WONDERFUL company!!
They pay on time, helpful, wonderful/nice people. They are pretty much everything you would want!
Great place - ExText is easy to learn and user friendly. Good pay. Nice, COMPETENT people.

The company sounds wonderful, by chance....
do you need a really dedicated Radiology MT????
I work for SmartScripts and they are a wonderful company.
Plenty of work and pay is always on time.
Axolotl is a wonderful company but not sure if hiring. SM
You are welcome to email me if you want. Good luck
I just declined a position with a wonderful company due to
How many of you work for a company with a Tues thru Sat or Sun through Thur schedule? How can you possibly due this every weekend? I would have no problem working a rotating weekend schedule every 3 to 4 weeks, but EVERY weekend when I have kids and family time is important? Please explain this to me, as I just cannot see how it is possible. Thanks!
I've been there a couple of years and it has been a good fit for me, very flexible with my schedu
as long as production is being met. We are definitely a growing company and sounds like you have the experience that we need. Paychecks have been always on time for me, direct deposit.
Company with flexible schedule
I'm an MT with 6+ years of acute care experience and a mom of 4. I love working at night when kids are in bed. I like the company I work for but they are starting to get very picky about working the assigned schedule. I received a call today stating that if was not going to be typing for a 5 minutes or more I am to log out. The problem is that I don't know how long it will take to calm down an upset child or lookup a new medication for the report I'm working on.
So the bottom line is that I need a company that will be flexible with my schedule. I would really llike to find a company that hires ICs. So is there anyone out there that works for a company who offers a flexible schedule? I,m willing to run out of work occasaionlly and I love working at night and on the weekend. I would even take a pay cut to get a company that will work with me.
Thanks,
Mariah
The account is not bad but it has heavy Hispanic dictators. I worked on it for another company and
get used to it, it is a great account. If you really want a different account, just talk to them. They are really good about switching accounts for people. Call Becky in the office. She is the HIM coordinator now according to her email signature line. She is the best!
Proscript is a wonderful company, great people. nm

EMTS is a wonderful caring company - I've been
there over 2 years and I will have to be chased away with a stick. This company is SOOOOO kind to their employees ... seriously caring people. You can't work for a better bunch. That is my .02
I worked there for a short time. Wonderful company.
I went and got my own clients, so I couldn't do both. Pay was adequate and on time by direct deposit. I had a teaching hospital, good account, some difficult ESL, some not so difficult. Bayscribe platform is okay, had to get used to it. I personally was not fond of it, but to each their own.
The long distance phone service was not an issue. I used the Verizon unlimited LD and regional plan $49.99 per month.
All-in-all, my experience was good while there. Every company has their ups and downs. It all depends on what your individual needs are and how far out of your comfort zone you want to go.
Good luck!
Keystrokes....very flexible, tons of work, great leads, good pay...
I love it there...
Does anyone know of a company that hires ICs on a very flexible basis.
I really just want a position that I can work as a second job, maybe some weekends and evenings and nothing set in stone. I have found even with a lot of the companies who say that they are flexible or really not. The next thing I know, I need to tell them exactly WHAT DAY and WHAT TIME I am working ahead of time etc. That is exactly what I want to avoid. I want the flexibility to work if I want and take off a day or two if I need to. Is this possible?? I realize that the main reason they ask for a schedule is to plan accordingly but I do not want that "pressure". I was an IC recently and if I was not on right at the moment they "scheduled" me, then I would get emails or phone calls. Maybe I am just dreaming that I can have this flexibility..Anyone??
