The latest large incentive they're talking about is...sm
Posted By: Cindy Oldham, Regional Operations Manager on 2007-05-23
In Reply to: Bummed!!! Apparently the MDI-FL side doesnt get incentives. It seems like the benefits/incentives - MT there
for the BeyondTXT editing program and details were given to everyone working on that platform. Other incentives are for various accounts at various times and details are provided by the ROM for those accounts as those incentives are put into place. The holiday incentive is for everyone, MDI as well as Transcend employees. This is for 3 cpl for all lines transcribed on the 6 national holidays as long as you meet the criteria outlined in the policy. If you do not have a copy of this and would like to receive it, e-mail me and I'll be happy to send it to you.

I don't know what you're talking about
I think you're talking about
the company I just left, so here's my experience: Last August, we went from a very good program where I could do 250 to 300 lph WITHOUT Expanders to the DQS program WITH EXPANDERS, it's now ten months later, and I'm very, very fortunate to do 150 to 200 lph. I have 29 years of experience and am pretty quick...this is the number one reason I left...if you're going to DQS, expect to lose about 25% of your line count. I never could figure it out and never could get my PS interested enough to return my emails about it. Hope this helps.
Are you sure we're talking about the same
company? I wasn't aware of a rental fee, I know I don't pay one. I'm not sure where the job hopping came from....and I agree that you have the right to judge a company by what you read about it, but when you are reading good things why create a negative?
I know EXACTLY who you're talking about
hmmm?
I Believe I Know What Co. You're Talking About
If I'm right, it doesn't get better. Ever.
Good luck!
You don't know what you're talking about
I never said I was leaving because of VR. I simply asked if anyone gave 2 weeks notice. I happen to have a job lined up with a hospital (no more MTSOs) earing in a week what I make at TT in a month. I would have left TT anyway for this job.
Well, as you said, that's as an IC. I think we're talking about employees. nm

I think you're talking about Transhealth. NM
nm
Sounds like you're talking about
TranScam. That's not their real name, just their earned nickname.
It used to be hospitals would train people, but it's very expensive and time-consuming. I think your friend could find that only if she lived in India.
6 cpl - I hope you're talking about
editing, here. You have 4 years' acute care experience and should be making at least 8 cpl. IC should pay more since they don't have to pay benefits. Check the job board out. I'm sure you'll find something.
You have no idea what you're talking about. sm
Most MTSO's do not make a fortune. They barely make the money that they would be paid hourly if you put all the hours together that they do. I was sick of working 18 hours a day, 7 days a week. I made good money on paper, about $150,000 a year, but that was working 18 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That is about $23.00 an hour. I make more per hour as an MT and have evenings off, can play with my daughters, can eat hot meals without interruption. I work 5 days a week, 8 hours a day now and love it.
I could've afforded a yacht and a summer home and a lot of other things but I sure wouldn't have had time to use them or enjoy them. I spent too much time chasing MT's who did not do their jobs, had every excuse in the world as to why they did not meet their required lines, and making customers happy. No thank you. MTSO's can keep their wonderful lives. Mine is much better now.
Okay, then we're talking about a DIFFERENT 'CB'
I am CrankyBeach, sometimes (often) referred to as 'CB' on this board, by others (not by myself).
While I am certainly a cranky beach, I am nobody's supervisor, have not been anybody's supervisor EVER in the MT world, and I really don't even want a promotion... I've been there, done that (I was head of a billing department for many years), and I actually prefer being a minion. I've been at Transcend since April 1, 2009, when TRS was bought out. The only national companies I have ever worked for have been TRS and Transcend, which more or less amounts to the same thing.
So anybody named 'CB' who might have gotten a promotion in the latest merger is NOT me. Just trying to clarify the record....
Yes, you left out the fact that you don't know what you're talking about. sm
Keystrokes pays unemployment in every state that we have employees in (38 at this point).
Supply reference books? Supply fax machine? Yes. If someone cannot get something that will help them, the owner of Keystrokes always helps out.
My husband is a tradesman. He is an employee and is union. He has had to pay for his own tools, his own vehicle to and from work, his own clothes that are destroyed constantly, his own gas. Why should transcription be any different?
I have worked for Keystrokes for 5 years. I transcribe when needed, as many as 15,000 lines per pay period. I have had slow periods like everyone else.
Yes, I get paid a salary I earn in. If you want to be on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, filling in when transcriptionists call in or don't start their shift on time, giving up hot meals and nights out because a Transcriptionist cannot work their shift, then become management.
I have heard every excuse in the book. I have proofed work from experienced transcriptionists that look like a novice transcribed it. I have worked schedules around everyone's personal lives.
Think management is all fun and games? Think again. I make a good dollar because I earn it.
Wonder if who I'm thinking of is who you're talking about? That would explain a LOT. sm
This person gets away with so much, I don't know she's kept her job this long. Getting a timely response from her on even the smallest issue is impossible, and she always has an excuse for why she couldn't __________. And, she seems to lose her internet connection more than anybody I know, and it's always conveniently for a 3-day weekend. Or she'll take 9 days off to go to a 4-day convention. Or she'll take a long weekend and then conveniently be sick on her return day. I've never seen so many excuses. She gets away with it, though. It's not like she's even a good manager on the days she is around; she doesn't know anything about site profiles or have any client contacts. About all she does is forward emails from other managers who have taken the time to actually do their jobs.
Does any of this sound like your triple dipper?
Depends on if you're talking about US employees only or
Still at about 12K total including ICs and ILPs.
I hope I don't get that account you're talking about either.
I am a little scared now.
You're right. You have no idea what I'm talking about. Typical. nm
djf;lkj;
You're probalby talking about Cardioscribes, right?
attempting to cover that is beyond me. Everyone you deal with regarding the work flow is from India. Try to call the owner and you're hooked into a call center.
Just hold on a second! You're the one who is on here acting superior and talking about weeding o
"bad" transcriptionists. Can't help but wonder how good you are when you can't even form a complete sentence.
I love it when people get on here and criticize others' abilities and talk about bad Transcriptionist when their own posts are so sloppy. I love the excuse, "I'm not working now." I try to be literate whether I'm working or not. I don't have to put on my "literacy hat" when I go to work. I wear it all the time, and although I certainly understand typos and make my fair share of them, I don't understand how or why someone chooses not to be literate simply because they're not working but suddenly transforms into a competent, literate person when they are working. I just don't get it. I guess for some, literacy truly is WORK.
Like I said, everyone makes mistakes. But the next time you sit up there on your pedestal, criticize others and talk about weeding out "bad" transcriptionists, you might want to proofread your own stuff so it doesn't come back to bite you in the butt.
Computter computer? Now what are you talking about? Honestly, you're like a nosy neighbor
budding into halfway thru a conversation! What are you talking about getting fired on a computer? You are lame, girl!! We WERE having an adult conversation here. BusyMTing and I are understanding each other just fine! Go back outside and play with your friends!
What is the latest on OSi?
What's the latest at SS?
Anyone hear or know what's going on at SoftScript? I've been hearing a lot of rumors (or facts, perhaps!). Fill us in....
u mean the latest downfall in mgt or
do tell
OMG just saw the latest newsletter - LOL!
LOL LOL
Latest on Amphion?
Hi. I'm thinking of applying there. What is the latest on this company? Do they have a high turnover rate or do they seem to keep employees? Are you switched around on accounts much? Do they make you pay for your computer? How picky are they about keeping schedules? What is their platform like? Any info would be appreciated -- don't want to waste my time if they are a bad company.
latest news
You're right. DSG made me absolutely miserable. I finally quit. The lack of organization, the constant changing of the specs for each account, the constant shuffling of which accounts you worked on, now keep a log of all cc's sent per report and send it to operations each day, plus the fluctuations of work available just got to be crazy.
I think this had been a very good company and it's sad that something has gone terribly wrong. They need to step back and look at their management style and their growth, and reassess what's going on. They can't keep experienced MTs or QA people, they are now loaded with very inexperienced MTs. They are in deep waters and need to take notice.
What is the latest with Spheris?
Anybody happy, not happy? Do they offer statutory?
According to their latest post (elsewhere) she is
She recruits. It's not her fault they cannot keep people. Their platform stinks and alot of look-ups are required. She's got a great job. Half the time she's never in the office! lol
Transolutions latest?
Are there happy campers at Transolutions?
I also tried it. Even bought the latest..sm
version they claimed to be so much better etc. I tried it and it was a complete waste of time and money. It does not work like they say and I spent a considerable amount of time with it. IT is the way to go. Much more worth it and so much easier.
latest TSI info is just another lie
I'm posting on this board and will also post on the main board. But those of you who have been ripped off by Jayne Mattingly from TSI (Illinois) may have received an email stating she would send us the contact info of her 'partner' who 'seized' the acct. Well, don't bother calling the phone number of the 'partner' as it has been disconnected. Weird huh. Also, it's not a partner..its her attorney who is just going to fool around some more and never pay us. You could email her and ask for the correct one, but good luck with that. I saw a post about contacting the attorney general (yeah, apparently other people dont get paid) and I plan on looking into that more and will let you know what i find out. Also, if you are interested the local newspaper is Herald and Review. Might be an interesting story for them....would love to read the story Local Businesswoman Pockets $1,000s from a Government Contract and Never Paid the People Doing the Work I sent a quick note...would probably help if others did.
sorry, but what I see is *latest messages* ,,,sm
not *related messages*, unless yours is showing something different than mine.
Latest on Cardioscribes
I didn't see anything particularly recent in the archives on Cardioscribes and wondered if any current or recent employees would care to share any info about how things are there. Are most accounts straight typing or VR? On the overall, how are the dictators and the audio quality? Is the pay decent and on time?
Any info anyone would care to share would be greatly appreciated. Email privately if you prefer.
TIA!!!
MDI's latest propaganda
Did anyone else see the latest missive from Dorothy? It is kind of a rah-rah piece where she is going to have another conference call next week where we can hear the confidence in her voice (yeah, I would be confident, too, if I had just sold my company for 16 mil) and how we are all committed to excellence in our DNA! Wow. Perhaps if MDI folds, their officers can all get jobs writing advertising slogans on Madison Avenue. Meanwhile, no answers to our practical questions.......
Oh, Gawd, if you could only see the latest newsletter
OSI has been the subject of so much discussion, it just does not get any better. LOL LOL
It is actually a joy to work at OSi because it is so ridiculous that there is never a dull moment. I can't believe that she would have the nerve to post another stupid travelog.
$12.50/hr. is their latest fabulous pay scheme.
Whats the latest on this company?
I had heard at one time they were a great company to work for, are they still maintaining that status?
Webmedx-Latest info?
Any recent info on how they are to work for now? Looking for steady workflow (understand seasonal slumps), is the insurance good/affordable, and what kind of time off do you get? Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!
Latest excuse about OSI offshoring
Offshore labor is used only for accounts that have insisted that we provide an offshore solution to their transcription needs.
No sane MT would ever believe that a hospital has insisted on offshore MTs. They may have asked for lower rates and in order to land the account OSi itself insisted on using offshore labor.
I have known people who worked for the facilities where work is offshored and THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW IT IS OFFSHORED.
Oops, meant latest nm
Need latest info on SoftScript.
Need info on working conditions, platform, pay, benes, etc. TIA
Download the latest version of
Adobe Reader 9.1, it's free.
If the questionnaire you have to fill out, is given by the company, ask them what's wrong.
So, what is the latest news on the lawsuit?
TT versus MT? Inquiring minds want to know!
What's the latest on Axolotl? Any info appreciated!

Focus Infomatics - Latest word on them?
Is there plenty of work? Is it more VR with MT typing the whole report and getting paid at that rate?
Any latest news on Davis Transcription?
They tried to rehire me back last month and I have not heard a word from them. Heard they got bought out by another company which does not surprise me at all. Any latest news on this crazy company?
Any latest info on Davis Transcription?
All I know is that they lost one of their big accounts. That place is so screwed up!!!

Didn't you just LOVE the latest TT email?
Congratulating us for getting all the work caught up last night and pointing out we weren't EVEN OFFERED A BONUS. Nice. Yes, those of us at TT are so desparate for work that when it finally shows up, we don't need a bonus to work our fingers to the bone and those in Management crow about it.
Made me throw up a bit in my mouth.
Didn't you hear the latest? They are wanting everyone to submit a name ...sm
change through the local chapters to be able to include everyone.
Who invited the Indians anyway???
