The pay is horrible. The owner degrades you on a daily basis and they promise you tons of work and then CUT you when times get slow. Please from one fellow MT to another...don't waste your time! You deserve much better!

Same at small company in Ohio sm
I worked for. Owner did all the easy and templated work. I almost went broke working for them. Only paid 8 cpl and have awful accounts. You'd be lucky to get over $400 a week there. Expects people to work 15 to 18 hour days and both weekend days too.
eSkribe claims to be based in Ohio, but is an Indian company
Check out their website at eSkribe.com.
Probably a company we should stay away from.
I am looking for a new home, and have been testing and interviewing like crazy, which I am sure is true for the rest of you. I imagine by the time Precyse gets around to contacting any of us, we will have found a new home.
Makes you wonder if they actually have positions available or if they just like to post ads.
Why would you stay with a company
reason most of us work is to buy groceries for our families and put a roof over our heads. I couln't afford to work for a company that didn't pay decent. What good is a company if you are living in a tent?
Definitely stay away from this company....
As someone else mentioned, lots of drama, no communication at all from the owner, and very low pay. They also offshore to India.
Which company is this; I want to stay far away
from them
STAY AWAY from this company!
Horrible experience, I wouldn't wish this company on my worst enemy. 
STAY AWAY!!! This company used to be called...
Quality Medical Transcription in Blue Springs, MO (which is not far from Pleasant Hill, MO), owned by the same contact person. Not only do they offer ridiculous line rates (7 cpl w/o spaces IC status), when I worked with them my pay checks always bouced....that is after they would actually show up.
Unless you are just absolutely desperate for work....I sincerely do not recommend working for this family.
Also, check out the link below (same person/family)

Any company who wants to stay in business sends work out
It is called a blended model. Hospitals are demanding a better price and US companies must offer offshore work that is edited by US MTs to compete. It is just like voice recognition, a company must offer this platform or lose the ability to bid on the work. It is not for every hospital and it is not for every situation. Therefore, if a company does not have the ability to offer a lower price with non-domestic labor plus have a voice rec option, they will find themselves unable to compete in tomorrow's marketplace. Those who cannot compete will lose market share and continue to run out of work. Those who can compete will continue to hire MTs and grow market share.
Glad you love your company. Hope you stay there - LOL

STAY AWAY from this company! Do a search here. Lots of information, none of it good.
I can't afford to stay with VR. If they paid more, I'd stay.
The situation sucks. I really liked this company when I started there. I know they read these forums, and they are aware that we are unhappy over VR line rates. They stroke us with cute emails and say we're the best, but I can't feed my family on praise. They're turning into another MedQuist, and so I'll be leaving.
Stay low and stay very, very quiet. Do not
ask questions, do not talk to the supervisors unless forced to. The answer will always be the same, that you are the only one who has an issue, everything else is perfect. Never mention anyone's name. This place has the mentality of the Borg, everyone has been assimilated, which means if your supervisor does not like you, or does not like your friend, you have no chance. You associate with so and so, so you are exactly like them. That quickly goes through the Borg network and every team lead, ROM, and person in management, including HR, is aware of it. You'll be labeled a trouble maker and your life will not be worth living. Any trial to clear your name will be done in the fashion of the trial of witches. You are in a dunking chair - if you drown you are innocent but it is too late by then.
Remember, a ROM never makes a mistake and never tells something that isn't true. They are perfect (and nastier than a pack of hiennas.)
If you run out of work, it is your fault. You are just lazy. Can't make enough to take care of your family? Too bad, you need to work harder.
And forget getting an answer from management. It doesn't
happen. So, as before, stay low and very quiet.
And do a good job? You can be assured that if you do a good job, do what you are supposed to do, and stay quiet, no one will even recognize your name. They have no idea where you work, what your schedule is, or that you even belong to Transcend.
MQ Ohio CSC
Ohio has to be one of the best offices to work for in the MQ system. My girlfriend got transferred there a couple of months ago and has never run out of work yet and she is only in one account, communications is great, all kind of incentives that you do not have to ask for---just my luck when I asked to be transferred there, supposedly there is a freeze on transfers and I am stuck in the northeast
Keep up the good work Ohio--it is appreciated by the MT's that work there.
OHIO MQ
 You must be management, or a favorite, or something! That is NOT how it is. I have been there for 5 years+. Did someone ask you to post that to boost morale or what? 
Ohio MQ
 I hope you hold that high opinion after you've been there awhile. You DO run out of work, poor communication, lots of luck getting a raise. If there is any question or problem, you cannot get a response. Good luck.
Ohio MQ
If i didn't know you were talking about Ohio, I would have thought you were talking about foxboro and amherst. My girlfriends dealing with the Ohio office has been nothing but good and actually i know of at least 3 others that were in my old office before it closed and they opted to go to Ohio rather than be transferred to foxboro and it has worked out great for them. maybe with the lack of work in foxboro, that could be why she was transferred. i always thought the foxboro office would close and just merge with the amherst office anyways. after all i thought the goal of MQ was to have all their accounts on the platform and those of us that are still in foxboro are on MTS so are we a dying breed
Try Ohio...
Ohio MQ is awesome - plenty of work!
MQ/OHIO...
I have all those things U want working 4 MQ/Ohio...come join me in the Buckeye State, where the grass is always greener....
MQ/Ohio - sm
Would you email me and tell me how to go about contacting that particular office? I was offered a job by MQ about a month ago, but it was for the Denver office. They told me that was the only place that had a radiology position....thanks greenfl3@yahoo.com
Ohio MQ-What is not to like
Does she like working for the Ohio office over the Amherst/Foxboro office??? What is not to like, she is in ONE account and always has work, when transferred was told that she would be paid extra for working after 3PM, working on the week-ends, and working on the holidays and the most important thing about all this is that she did not have to ask, this is the norm at the Ohio office, Again and again it is stated, why are not all the MQ offices run the same?????? Maybe if they were, it would not be so miserable working for the Amherst office. We are not asking for too much, just to have the chance to make a living.

PDA out of Ohio
Two girls in my office type for PDA at home at night and love both the owners. They are very fair and helpful. When they have QA questions, they get right back to them
I wonder if this is the old MRC from Ohio. nm

Ohio MT
Read Pat Buchanan's THE DEATH OF THE WEST.
They are out of Ohio

p.r.n. in Ohio
I worked for them for a short time over the summer; very nice and laid back folks. Pay is good for experienced MTs and always on time!!! I really enjoyed working for them and only left because I'm working a full-time employee status job now with Axolotyl.
Ohio transfer
You are so lucky--the Ohio office is a great place to work for, all kinds of incentives and you do not have to ask for them, plenty of work--good luck--you will enjoying working there, my girlfriend asked to be transferred there from Foxboro about 3 months ago and it has turned out to be the best move that she could have made. She is in one acccount and has all the work that she needs--what I don't understand is if there is so much work in the amherst office and accounts that are out of TAT, why you were not transferred there????
Ohio MQ office
 Welcome aboard. I've been with them for 10 yrs, now on DocQscribe, love it, never ever out of work...we need the help desperately
Felicia--go to Ohio
the Ohio office is the best-my friend is there and always gets her lines and that is only in one account--if you can get transferred to Ohio, please go there--stay away from the NE
MQ Columbus/OHIO SC
Not sure how long you have been with Columbus Buffy, but Columbus is now the ONLY Ohio CSC, ergo called the Ohio CSC. Cleveland, Toledo, Dayton & Cincinnati were consolidated 2 years ago under the Columbus office to form the Ohio CSC. Now many of my old timer's that I started with inhouse went home to either work or retire.
I've been with them for 21 years now (starting with the old Transcriptions Limited) and have been through more supervisors, coordinator's and managers than I care to think about, but I honestly believe the reason we are so successful now is that our operations manager has been there/done that. Started as an inhouse M/assistant, worked up a few notches into various positions IE; scheduling, weekend coordinator, supe, etc. Went home to MT for a while then came back in a few years back and really worked her way up into the present position. Her ability to know what's needed all the way around, delegate and common sense attitude really speaks for itself in how successful we are.
Nope, never met the OM, only talked to her on the phone over the years and am not *the cheerleader*. Only stating what I know for a fact and what works for my CSC.
They are located in Ohio....sm
An offshoot of one of the major health systems here in the Akron area. Were just recently started and are trying to get their feet wet in the national arena. Primarily were doing nothing but local work just a few months ago and very disorganized at the time. Don't know what they're like now. Benefits seemed good, comparable, but were just getting started. Originally wanted 150 lph with 98% quality and a rather harsh grading scale. For instance, medical word misuse was minus 5 percentage points, omitted (consequential) dictation minus 5 points, medical misspelling minus 3 points, and so on.... Hope this helps!

Has any one heard of Physicians First Transcription company, or Priority Transcription Company?
Thanks,

I think that is somewhere in Ohio, but could be wrong. nm

chase is out of Ohio
extremely low pay, but made it sound like i would be paid more by being paid for Keystrokes but after like what was pulling teeth it comes out to exactly 65 characters a line which includes spaces. hope this helps.
TCI, Ohio---any info on them
would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!
I live in Ohio...hence the name...

No, they are not based out of Ohio
They have a home base in Connecticut, but they are an Indian-owned company.
To Tired in Ohio
Do you know what it is about the platform that is causing your counts to go down? Is it the way it counts lines or other things. Would appreciate if you could elaborate a bit. Thank you.
I do some overflow for the Ohio office...
I work out of a different MQ office but have been doing some overflow work for the Ohio office. I only work on one account for their office, but it seems to have a lot of work. Not too many ESL docs, though there are a couple of tough ones. With the account I am on, mostly the dictators just speak very rapidly, but with time I've been able to get more comfortable with them.
Good luck to you!
curios about MQ Ohio closing
where and when was that announced?
Ohio office closing
I remember something about MQ consolidating down to just four regional offices, but never heard of the Ohio office closing. Columbus is the only one in Ohio, but I am still curious as to where this info came from?
MQ Ohio office closing
This is to MQ'r--previously on the board there was a posting that the MQ Ohio office was going to be closed at the end of the year, if this is the only office left in Ohio, do you know where you would be transferred to. I thought you would be transferred to another office in Ohio but seeing that this is the only one that is not going to work. From what I have read on the board I would hope that it is not to the Amherst office.
Any info on PRN Transcription out of Ohio? nm

Would not ever recommend this company to anyone. Run, run as fast as you can.
TRANSCRIPTION CONNECTION IN OHIO
In reply to your post, TCI is an outstanding company to work for. I have always been paid well and paid always on time. They expect quality work from all employees and provide quality dictation to their clients as well as TAT times under 24 hours. All clients are pleased. All MT's employed are VERY happy with TCI.
