can still get job w/Medquist with dial-up...n/m
spheris has dial-up
nm
Spheris--anyone been hired lately who has dial-up?
Does Spheris require any minimum hours for part-time? Any probs when you have dial-up, do you spend a lot of time downloading files? What about really short reports?
Would never use dial-up with Spheris. It will be too slow,
eek a mouse!
Spheris, SoftScript, and Precyse (if speed 37K or faster) use dial up

Medquist Vs. Spheris
OK, for all you out in cyberspace who have worked at one or both companies (or just know a lot about them) here is my question: Which is the better company to work for, MedQuist or Spheris?
Curious in KY...
MedQuist is much BETTER than Spheris. sm
I don't know how you can compare the two. Yes, I left MQ for Spheris and came running back :)
medquist and spheris
i wonder if all this stuff going on at MQ means that Spheris is going to buy us, too?? I heard that is what is going to happen.
Medquist and Spheris
They deserve each other. Two wrongs won't make a right, that's for sure.
Spheris does, and I think MedQuist NM

Going from MedQuist to Spheris
I did and I couldn't be happier! I was miserable at MQ. No work, crappy accounts, switching back and forth on different accounts I was not familiar with. Supervisors unavailable, the list goes on and on. I am very happy at Spheris. I make almost double what I did at MQ! Great account, supervisor is great. I know others are not so happy at Spheris, but I am. I was at MQ for over 6 years. Have been with Spheris 2-1/2 years now.
Medquist versus Spheris
I worked for MQ for 6 years. I was not a very happy camper most of that time. I was afraid somewhere else might be worse! Communication was bad, rental fee every month on computer, very disorganized in all aspects. Now, I've been at Spheris only 3 weeks but I can see a great difference. Very well organized, detail oriented. My supervisor does NOT call me if I am away from the computer 5 minutes or more. I think I will be very happy with Spheris. I also love the idea of changing accounts to a higher level and getting paid more for harder accounts--you won't find that at Medquist!
MedQuist and Spheris both offshore.

Transcend vs Medquist vs Spheris
I could really use some advice. I'm new here and a relatively new MT. I'm a CMT with only about 8 months exp. I accepted a job with Transcend last week with a good cpl rate. I'm in training now. I'm a little worried b/c I'm hearing mixed reviews about the company and how they are going to all edit...
Anyway, Medquist has offered me a job, but the cpl rate is 2 cents less than what Transcend is giving me. I'm not happy about that. If you were in my position, would you stay with Transcend or go to Medquist?
Also, I got an email today from Spheris that they want to interview me. I don't know what the cpl rate is yet. I have heard good things about them. Should I accept with them?
I'm so confused. I don't want to burn my bridges with Transcend b/c what if they turn out to be a decent company? I am getting a good rate with them. But Spheris seems really appealing to me...
Any advice??
Medquist versus Spheris
So, do Medquist and Spheris both send work to India? Yikes- I am trying to avoid applying for work with a company that is pro offshoring. Any ideas of a good company to work for? I have 10 years multispecialty experience, not enough work, already with a small pro-India company who takes away from the Americans and gives the accounts to India employees, trying to get more work with a new company.
Medquist dosen't operate the way Spheris does. sm
You cannot even compare the two and believe me I know.
MedQuist, Spheris or WebMedX for Radiology? sm
Please, anyone who works for or has worked for one (or more) of the these companies transcribing Radiology provide some input. How are the accounts, the pay, schedule flexibility, benefits, etc? You can email me, if you prefer.
Thanks :->
Well since MT stars is global you will see Spheris, Medquist, Diskriter, etc. posts sm
so if your going to be unemployed because of offshoring that is to bad. The majority always think of India when it comes to offshore but the Philippines, Australia, Europe, etc. also transcribes.
What companies allow dial-up? or C-phones and dial-up?
 I do not have (and can't get) cable or high speed internet. Satellite is available but way too expensive to get if you are not working! I just wanna get a job....
MedQuist board is now set up. See Medquist link to the left.

PT with dial up
I work for Transolutions, and the do use dial-up and I believe they do PT also. I am FT, so I am not sure about PT. Also, Spheris also uses dial-up and has PT and also supplies all the equipment you need.
Don't know about dial-up
They do pay for spaces, and pay a higher rate than anyone else I'v encountered. They employ all ICs only - but make sure to keep after them. I've accepted a position, have filled out my paperwork but now am getting nervous because I can't get anyone to call me back or respond to my e-mails.
I don't know about dial-up. (sm)
I kind of think you'd need DSL. If you can get it, it'd probably be worth it. You're working real-time online like with lots of other companies. It'll help your production.
Spaces - I think so, but I'm not sure.
IC only.
I believe they still are on dial up sm
Last I knew they paid for your second phone line.
Dial-up
DRC, Transolutions, and Spheris. I don't know if I would recommend working in Spheris' system with dialup though - that's the main reason I quit there. 
Dial-up
Medquist allows dial-up as I worked for them and used dialup before. I believe also Precyse Solutions also allows dial-up.
Dial-up
Yes, Precyse does allow dial-up.
Dial up
I do not have access to high speed internet. I am looking for part time work that can be done on dial up. I have 15 years experience and am home based for our local hospital. Does anyone have any suggestions on companies that still use dial up, and hire part time? Thanks in advance.
Dial up
Might also want to try FutureNet or QT Medical as they offer dial-up options as well.
Dial up
A new job was just posted on the job seekers board under Cardiology-Kelly. Drop a resume with a note that you're strictly dial up. I posted this job, and we can use dial-up or high speed.
Dial-up?-sm
Does anyone still work using a dial-up connection? We are facing a move in a couple of weeks and it has come to my attention that I may not be able to get high-speed in our new home. My only options may be dial-up or satellite through Wild Blue. Are their companies out there that are still using dial-up? I really love the company I am working for as an employee right now but I would go back to IC if I had to. Thanks for your help!
dial-up
I have used dial-up and also used internet for MDI-Florida.
Very good company. Pay 10 cpl for Meditech experience.
If you are on dial-up with TT...
and willing to answer a couple of questions, could you e-mail me?? thanks!
dial up
I also would be interested in finding out any companies that allow dial-up. Thanks!
Dial-Up and VR
You really need something high speed to work with the VR.
KS and dial-up
If you have DSL or cable, you'll be okay at KS. If you only have access to dial-up, they have almost no accounts. I know most people have DSL/cable, but there are still a few of us that can't get it. I've been with KS for about 6 months and will now have to look for another job because of this.
dial-up only
I was just hired by KS in December and was told that dial-up would be okay.
I do not think dial up
or satellite can be used.
Are there any companies out there that still use dial up?
I only have dial up and there are no plans to add DSL in the area that I live in for at least another year possibly two. Satellite is out of the question due to too many trees around. I live in the woods and believe me its hard to get a clear view on the satellite dish we have now.
If anyone knows of a company that still uses dial up please let me know.
Thanks
any companies that use dial-up?
Are there any companies that you can still use dial-up on? There is NO high-speed in my area. I also would like to find a foot pedal that I can rent, or buy realy cheap. PLEASE reply.
Did you find somewhere better with dial-up?
It's getting harder to find places who will work with dialup or else it's so slow you can't make it worthwhile.
I have dial up, you download? how
Where are you downloading from and to where, hardrive. I would like to do this also, as I don't have to can get DSL . Can reply here or email.
Is Transolutions on dial-up?
Just curious. Have to decide between them and Webmedx and not sure which one to choose - maybe it will help to know this.
Dial Up Companies?
Please give me some companies that I can do QA or edit for? thanks, I don't have broadband right now.
Dial-up ok but must be 32 or 34.0 kbps-nm
x
I have dial-up as well and is the only thing we can get currently....sm
I work for MQ and have done so for almost 7 years now w/o any of the problems that others so often complain about here. I think it depends on the office you get. A close friend also worked for them and the office she had was horrible. Anyway, they accept dial-up, I believe Medware does, but not positive, and Spheris too.
A suggestion would be to call the local phone company wherever it is you are moving to and ask them if they have plans to get DSL in that area. I called ours recently and was told they plan to extend out and have DSL available to at least 80% of their customers by the end of this year. So, you may not be w/o it for all that long. HTH. Good luck.
companies using dial up?
Even in this day and age of advanced technology I cannot get DSL, high speed internet, or satellite where I live. Do you know of any companies that still use dial up??? TIA
Allegiant and Dial-Up???
While we're on the subject does anyone know if Allegiant and their EMDAT program are compatible with dial-up? I feel your pain, allinadayswork, as I'm in the same boat. However, I suppose we could get satellite if we could afford it but I see a lot of companies specify no satellite also. Living in the sticks does have its drawbacks! As for MedQuist, when I was supposed to switch over to their DocQScribe program the techies couldn't get it to work and they finally figured out that my dial-up connection was too slow. So not all dial-ups are created equal! MY ISP provider's recommendation was move to town. Good luck to you!
Companies that allow dial-up
Need info on Transolutions and any companies that allow dial-up, 19 years experience, looking for new job. Does Transolutions dock pay for mistakes?
Does TTS hire MT/VR with dial up?
Just curious
Only have dial-up, no chance
of ever getting high-speed internet access where I live... my only other option is satellite, haven't wanted to shell out the bucks for that up to now, but may have to. Can anyone tell me what companies still use dial-up or allow satellite connections? I hate to apply at companies, etc only to find out that they won't allow dial-up or satellite. Thanks so much for any suggestion about where to begin.
