Thanks for your post, I did find a "true IC" job which I took then...sm
Posted By: Cyndie on 2008-10-27
In Reply to: Advanced in Oregon??? - You have to work set days. It is IC.
and have been very happy with ever since, real freedom, great people, great system to work with......I think I applied, tested, interviewed, etc, with at least 20 to 30 companies before I was blessed to find the right one for me....don't EVER be afraid to interview the company and recruiter vigorously, talk to folk who have worked there, Google as much info as you can, be sure your info is fairly new.....yes, recruiters are the cheerleaders for the company, understandably, i was able to not only speak with the recruiter, but with the MTSO/owner/boss, and she even game ME referenes for her companies, other MTs working for her (she had their permission for this), all in all, best of luck and take your time evaluating!

Wow, let me know if you find that post
I'd like to see that post if you can find it.
Here's the only post I find about them ...

Try to find a positive post here
Sorry, but I don't know about the schools. I got into transcription from being in the medical field.
I don't blame you for not wanting to hear the negative. I am sick to death of seeing this negative stuff as well. I checked in here looking for samples and mistakenly decided to answer a post from someone who asked for a company recommendation. I complimented OSi for standing by me through hard times, then got mortally raked over the coals for doing that. No company is perfect but neither am I.
This board is filled with people criticizing OSi, other companies, and other people. I hope you can get an answer to your question. I have had enough of disgruntled people on this board.
See post above about not being told to find another job
and then decide how wonderful they are. Shannon is a real class act (NOT!) to work with.
please tell me why you find it necessary to dissect every post-sm
and be so cruel for someone making a type. What is wrong with you??? I for one don't proofread everything I post on here. I can just imagine how you treat people in person.
I checked and could not find my post.

Sometimes you can find an old post by doing a search.
I think the post you are referring to was from 11-28, and is probably on page 2 by now. It was from the owner of AAmT where she wrote:
We are currently in the transition phase of taking on business from another company. Therefore, please do not be confused if you call the office number and hear Synthescribe. Synthescribe is a corporation in Nashville who provides offshore labor solutions to health care providers in conjunction with onshore. AAmT is acquiring service contracts of Synthescribe's and will be providing 100% US labor solutions to these clients. I personally look forward to building a team of qualified US MTs and editors to support these health care facilities. They are thrilled about the fact we will be providing onshore services under AAmT's leadership.
Hope that helps clear things up for you.
Happy Holidays
I find your post amusing
Why in the world if someone posts on here speaking lovingly of VR, does that automatically mean they are not doing the same job as you and I (transcription)? I worked for years and years straight typing and several times I had people come into the office at the hospital where I worked and would seek me out wanting to watch me type because I typed so fast. To assume that anyone loving only is slow is a total myth and all in their minds. I type 130 or more an hour. I did not ask to go to VR and was really upset when told the hospital where working was going to that. I had worked for the hospital 13 years when VR came along for us. I wanted to stay with the same hospital and dictators. After trained on VR, then came the outsourcing for our department. Well by this time I was up in age, middle 50s and frankly I did not want to hit the pavement trying to find another job. I knew nothing about MTSOs or the like because had always in my MTing years just worked in hospitals doing this type of work. I now am going into my 19th year working still for the same hospital still in the same town, the only difference is my employer is located thousands of miles away. I love VR because I make a good salary, still fast (get some occasional straight because there are interns that dictate from the hospital) but I stayed with VR because of the above reasons. Believe me, not everyone who loves has to be an owner. Never an owner and do not care for a headache like that. I for one second do not doubt the person's typing speed. In the 80s I made almost $70,000 for the year, not bad for a slow typist, huh?
Thanks, that was me, but could not find so thought I forgot to post nmI

I find your post embarrassing and offensive as well.
x
The pay is very low and they also offshore. If I can find the link, I'll post it.

If you find the original post so offensive, why did you respond at all?
Why don't you get a clue? A good number of people enjoyed this. If you dislike it, you can just move on to some rosy-happy-fun filled post and leave the rest of us to chuckle without being harassed.
On the contrary, I find your post refreshing and true. sm
I agree whole-heartedly that MTSOs AND MTs are in it for a paycheck. It's not personal. If you don't like your employer's treatment, find another company where their style is more to your liking.
your post doesn't make much sense. Find another job then? That's what the rest of us do!
The lazyMT was from a prior post about testing..NOT about my personal habits. I find it odd that you
would reply with someone so insignificant and to which no one cares about your opinion. You don't know me and you certainly have no idea if I am lazy in regards to my lifestyle habits so go back where you came from, troll..
I find this post funny. If a company advertises constantly, posters question if they are losing peo
3 weeks, since 5/24, there are posts that question if they are growing. Who cares if a company is growing or not as long as they have enough work for their MTs. I started PT with KS two weeks ago and will be going FT 7/10 after my long-awaited and much-needed vacation. They have treated me very well and have plenty of work if the account I work on is any indication. I also came to them on the recommendation of several MT friends who work there, all of whom are very happy and have been for a while.
If you want to work for a particular company, your best bet is to contact them. I have read in several publications that more jobs are filled before advertising than after the fact.
Give them a call, especially if you like/love radiology!
I find your post sarcastic.... shrug shrug
What was the question again? Cannot find your post or question? NM

It's a "fishing" post. Same post a few days ago with numerous errors

You are not allowed to post their link on this site. Post

Read Spherson's post below, who admits, in the post, they do pay it.
zzzzz
Peachy, your post is interesting, but my post now is irrelevent but
A few weeks ago I went to my clinic where they had recently implemented EHR or EMR, whichever you call it, and the doctor's back was to me the whole time he and I conversed because his nose was stuck in his laptop. To me, it felt a little more impersonal, but I understand he was doing what he had to do, but it seems like the bedside manner may go to the wayside if the doctors can't even look at you when they are asking you questions or you are speaking to him/her. I know this is relevant to your original post, but just an interesting fact that I had not anticipated. Anyone else experience this?
This is why I NEVER post my cpl. I'll post the range of
what the company pays, but NEVER what I make. I know that I make more than probably 70% of the people there, because they know I produce a client ready report and that I can do anything they throw at me. We don't have levels, but I guess if we did I'd be at the highest level. Telling how much you make isn't so bad, but when people know what company you work for and then what you make that isn't a good combination. The ONLY people I have ever discussed what I make with, are my husband and my MTSO owner. Talking about your salary/pay is enough to get your fired in lots of companies.

One post was another "run" type of post and the
the recruiter. Once you are in with the company, the recruiter has nothing to do with you or your job. I want specifics about problems with THE JOB, not the recruiter. Specifics such as no or late checks, line counts being messed up, no work, taking bennies away with no explanation. Things that matter, not the recruiter.
everytime you post, where ever you post
unless you go through an anonymizer, your IP address can be traced back to you, even through the guises of this web site. There are web sites you can find on the internet to do this for you, or if you are 18 years old and like to hack, it's an easy enough thing to do.
I post a pay range, DOE; however, most don't post..
I wish some MTs would start thinking about the business aspect of the industry. For example, this is a public site, so go to Google or another search engine and type [the co's name] and per line, and voila! now everyone knows how much you pay your MTs.
Post removed, you can re-post.

Any ideas?
you will probably have to find sm
a company in your country. The companies I know of don't hire MTs out of the country. I don't want to be rude, but just for some information, I wouldn't describe what I wanted as wanting to do reports in my spare time. Very unprofessional.

Please find somewhere else
Please, they will not tell you anything, ever. Management changes on a daily basis, the MTs are told nothing. They will ship the work off one day, take it back, then ship it off again at their discretion. There are many GOOD companies out there, don't waste your time and talent on this place. It is apparent that their goal is to replace all American MT's with offshore, it is just a matter of time. They will treat you miserably if you decide to go there.
Where is their ad - I can't find it? nm

How to find?
I have called both the tax and the labor departments in my state and they know of no such regulations.
The way to find out might be to - sm
either have some investigative type get a job at that company's management level.
Sometimes even some hospital medical records management folks actually know where their records are REALLY being typed.
Where I used to work inhouse, that institution has a strict 'No offshoring' policy. They contract only with MTSOs who supposedly do not offshore. Yet some of it IS going offshore, and that hospital MR manager knows it, but the rest of the hospital doesn't. She & the MTSO have some sort of a sweetheart deal going, and she thinks she'll never be found out. Attempts to 'out' her secret by MTs have failed because (1) MTs are never taken seriously there, (2) she's such an adept liar that she always twists things around to come out in her favor, and (c) most of the whistle-blowers in the MT department there have either been fired or driven out.
There's such a wall between MTs & management that it's hard for the truth to be known. I think that's another reason why unionization could help us, because they've got the wherewithall to investigate issues such as cheating MTs on line counts, sending work offshore through the 'back door', etc.
If ever MTs needed someone to unite them and stand up for their cause, it's now.
