re wav or internet accts
mine have been lower on work but not running out. I was told by my liasion that if there is no work you are not expected to keep your committment. I would suggest any of these things be directly discussed with your liasion so that there are no misunderstandings. Most any MT work will fluctuate some. I sure wouldn't turn away from MDI based on these concerns.

I don't have a second phone line ... cable modem for the internet, regular line for my C-phone.

If anyone wanst to get through to me while I'm working, they have my cell phone number.


And, as I said, some accounts are using wav files -- no doubt soon all of the accounts will convert.  Hope so ... would make it easier (less expensive) to work when traveling.  :-)



Lots of good companies out there -- hope you find one that fits :)


 


 


Is this all Internet dictation and no phone line? NM

From an ad last year, you needed a Cphone to work. Don't know anything about them. nm

Is all Keystrokes work done on Lanier or Cphone systems? Do they have any 'net accounts? Thx. nm

Post from 2005 said you needed a Cphone and you HAD to buy Workman's Comp insurance to work

Guess we all can't be put on good accts. Gotta be there at the right time. Both of my accts.

No Work Either and I am on one of the new accts

you have to go through w/any company if you work VA accts..nm

i have steady work, on wav accts
with occasional lull's. i could work on secondaries, but usually do something around the house that begs my attention. All i can suggest is being able to be somewhat flexible with your hours, and/or talking to liaison about backup accts. as a last resort, a second company part-time i suppose. but in my opinion, MDI-MD is worth sticking with.
One of my secondary accts has very little work , but they..sm
stat every blessed report they do, so I always get those immediately. It is TAT, but your STM can explain it in more detail.
which companies do internet work -
as opposed to having to have a second phone line? Thanks.
the new accts were supposed to already be on board and still no work
x
so far plenty and swamped with work but that is due to new accts and not enough MTs yet so not sure
;
You don't know what accts I work on so how can you judge whether or not they are excellent? nm
.
Dedicated accts, few ESL, leave you alone to work.
x
Companies with new accts or sufficient work?
When I left my last job, the work load was on the wane and recent posts seem to indicate this has not changed much.  Any good news out there in this regard?
is proscript internet work or ld plan - tia - nm
nm
phoenix med com has lots of internet work...
.
I work strictly through internet; they have some accounts
that you work off phone lines but not many. If offered a position, state you only want internet work and nothing to do with phone lines.
I work for them, and I have dial up internet access.

I work 2 accts, always work available, pay as IC is good..
They offered me more than Transcend did, I work 2nd shift, work always availble, OT usually available. Staff is very responsive to questions, very helpful.


2 of the accts running OT in my group of work ARE EXCELLENT sm
Excellent accounts, low ESL, good work. NOT OVERHIRED. GO AWAY.
internet work or long distance plan? -nm

Since we work over the internet who do you report bad labor practices to...sm

I know one of the MTs that had their job eliminated at Medware last week.  The problem is this person's job was not eliminated, they gave it to someone else, but in the generic email it stated that there was no more job.  Seems like this should go against some labor law, but since we work over the internet who would you ask or report this to?  The job that was eliminated was the day person's job and the day person was given the evening person's job - the job that was supposedly eliminated.  We are trying to figure out if there is something that can be done about this or if this person should just say the heck with it and move on.  Thanks for any advice. 


 


3 of my accts were in OT all weekend with 0 jobs. Very little work actually available. Check Comm pa

? That's kind of a blanket statement; things are fine on the accts I work on. sm
Yes, it was slow a couple weeks ago but started picking up last week.

PS - Yes, they pay for spaces.
Can you say where you work if you get assigned docs/accts.? I'm tired of this pool garbage/left
s
Was there a short time last year. You work as an employee, not IC. Different software/diff. accts.

How are the MW accts that use the ExText? Good sound? Lots of work? Acute care or clinic? Thx. nm

? No work? What accts do you work on? sm
