soft script
i just started with them three weeks ago as an MI. i work fulltime somewhere else with almost four years experience. just by the emails, you can tell that both QA and MT areas need to do a little bit more standarizing.
soft script
i work for them too part time. so far, the only problem i have is standardization of QA because it gets confusing when one corrects one way and the other corrects another way.

lol see what you did, you got everyone fighting lol
Soft Script
Can ya tell they are bad news?
Soft Script and OSI
SS tells you that you have to purchase Start/Stop software and pedal also though. If you have a universal pedal, you only need the software, but it is $75. I now find out that other companies using the same platform say it is not mandatory, so why are they saying it is? If they are making a kickback off the software, that makes them no better than TRANSCAM IMO. I'm not an easy one to sucker, but hats off to them! If you cannot tell someone WHY something is necessary, then it's not necessary. Start/Stop is a universal player. I own a universal player, so what's up?
OSI uses it too, and they don't demand unnecessary software purchases.
Soft Script
Don't go to work for Soft Script. I tried it, and it was a horrible experience. The dictators were awful, ESLs mainly. I'm an MT, and they wanted me for editing.
They make Medquist seem like a great place to work.
Nooooo,,, not Soft Script.
Soft Script
A friend of mine used to be the operations manager. Maybe the MT side of it is okay but the QA side is a different story. She told me that they took in a lot of new graduates. There was an incredible incredible amount of editing to be done on these reports and they were struggling with this task. Im not sure if they were sending out to India or not, but that may have also been some of the editing issue. Anyway, sounded like a real mess to me and I didn't care to jump into it. Like I say, the MT end of it may be perfectly fine. Any other experiences out there?
Soft Script

Medscribe
Has Soft Script improved at all lately. nm

Chronicle and Soft Script
I had problems with the platform at Chronicle and SoftScript had poor training when cross training on a secondary account. The recruiter at Softscript wasn't always nice either. That was a couple of years ago. The Chronicle experience is very recent.
Soft Script Line Count
I have been with SS for a few years now and pay is dependable except for a couple times. But, don't you worry about the accuracy of your line count? Is there anyplace else you can work and have no idea how many lines you typed per report? Wonder Why??? No one will give you a straight answer, or for that matter any answer at all. Any management from SoftScript want to answer this Honestly?
Is Soft Script a good company. nm

Soft Script Pros and Cons
Pros: Their pay is good; the software is pretty user friendly, rare glitches.
Cons: Heavy ESLs; lots of accounts with tons and tons and tons of account specifics and many, many other details to learn; holidays don't exist to management. The management's attitude is poor.
QA: They pay per line. If you have experience, you'll get put on heavy ESL accounts and make nada if you do your job right.
A pair of soft flex gloves
Looking forward to using them on days when there's OT.
Old posts say that many MTs fail their testing, and they have offered low pay before, too. Soft

Their last job opening on the other board isn't dated. They were using Vianeta &Arrendale? soft

The only company I have ever worked for is Soft Script so I have absolutely nothing to compare sm
it to. I had my own accounts, lost them and so went with the first company to high resistance me! I've been with them a few years now and certainly have had issues but with absolutely nothing to compare it to, I have always assumed this was just par for the course....now after reading all these negative comments about the management and the platform, etc., I am wondering what I'm missing by staying with SS...how much worse is this company than most? Would it be prudent to start interviewing with other companies and if so, which ones are better than SS. I would so appreciate any input....I support myself and believe me if I can find a better company where I could make a bit more money...I would be there yesterday!
I doubt she's having fitful sleep. Money makes a soft mattress.
She sold us out for the mighty dollar.
This did not happen in a day; I bet she knew for months, way before she wrote that email a few weeks ago.
Any recent info on MedTrans Unlimited? newest archived info is 9 months old... m
Has anything changed in 9 months? Particular worries are the invoice/pay time; one post mentioned 2 to 3 week wait and another post stated 1 week. Info from the company states pay is sent out 10 days after the last day of the billing period, but we all know what is said and what is done isn't always the same. Another concern is the platform; some mentioned it was slow and cumbersome. They have 2 platforms from what I can gather.. Are they both slow? It seemed like certain specialties were done on certain platforms, or at least that is what I got out of the archives. I really hate to jump from the frying pan to the fire so any info would be VERY much appreciated.. the good, bad, and the ugly! TIA!!
Any Axolotl employees willing to share info., platform, ESL %, etc. All info greatly appreciated. sm
Along with the platform, ESL %, pay range, lpd required, split shift or 12-24 hour window available, I would be interested in knowing your personal experience with this company, what type of relationship you have with supervisors and other coworkers, etc. Otherwise, the all the 411.
Thanks!
Current info on Diskriter?? Past info was very mixed. Either MTs hated it or liked it, does anyone
love working there and why? Do you easily meet your incentive pay or as past people have said, the ESL are so bad that you never meet the line count. I need current and new information. Isnt there a company out there that has a handful of happy employees or does all of them have both the haters and lovers. It is so hard to sort out fact from fiction sometimes and all of us have different expectations. It kind of goes along with the one man's junk is another man's treasures theory, I suppose.
Any new info on Amphion? Archive search doesn't provide new info (sm)
Looking for a part-time position with decent pay and decent workflow. There's nothing new in the archives.
Need info on eMTS out of Florida. Any info would be appreciated!
nm
Any new updates on Focus for QA? Good info/bad info? sm msg
I checked the archives and read all the messages. Have things changed for the better here? Is there steady, reliable work? Able to make any decent money? Thanks!
Any info on Sten-Tel..not much info
Any info is appreciated.
Sorry, but I want info, lots of info...
before I make any decisions about what comes next in my work life.
Would you like fries with that, Sir? Welcome to WalMart! How'm I doing so far? Do I sound sincere yet? (At least these two companies are, and always will be, USA-based.)
I'd like some info as well.
TIA
Would like info
Please send me some info too. orangeblossom@charter.net
I would appreciate info also.
I am from Chicago office and have heard nothing about this. Thanks
Does anyone have any info on...
Digital Transcription, Inc. I am looking into a part-time job and need to know how this company is to work for. Thanks.
Here's some info...
I asked the same question a couple days ago and got some VERY VERY negative responses. I actually told the recruiter that they had a negative reputation on these boards and she seemed flabergasted. I needed an employee position and they hire only IC. Pay is 9 cents/65 char line with spaces. They have 2 hospital accounts they are hiring for; one they will send you a computer and you will use their requipment. The other requires purchase of a C-phone. They are standard 4 hospital. You must commit to a minimum line count (1000 lines per day). No benefits. Direct deposit twice a month.
I was not impressed and was glad when i discovered they were only looking for IC.
Hope this helps.
Anyone have info on All-Med?nm
x
Any info on OSI....
Good or bad, platform, etc. Thanks
Info on SS
They are a very good company to work for. I have been with them as an Editor for 7 months. Pay is very good. Unfortunately I don't believe they pay for spaces, but a lot of companies do not anymore, so therefore, you would have to decide if that is acceptable to you or not. You can get a very flexible work schedule. The only thing they ask is that you work when you are scheduled. For a while, there was a lot of emails being sent out, but that has significantly decreased since certain people are gone now. Every company has its ups and downs as we can read on these boards every day. SoftScript is not perfect, but they are not as bad as everyone makes them out to be either.
Anyone have any info on
A search of the archives produced very little information, but I have seen them advertising several times.
Thanks for the info

Any info on E-MTS?

Thanks for the info.....
Do you use the C-phone or are you on another account?
Need info
Can anyone tell me if there is such a thing as a "slow time" when typing IMEs?
TIA!
thanks for this info . .
even tho' I'm not the person who originally asked. I've also been looking for ways to submit writings, but didn't know who was on the up-and-up (should be hypenated, right?) on the net. This helps.
Thanks for the info!
Info
I recently applied to Spheris and they allow 1/8 hr block, 2/4 hr blocks, or a 12 hr block that you can work your eight hours within.
Thanks for the info.
I had applied with them, but I don't want to work for a company that offshores.
