There is a time clock, but LPH is easy to achieve and bonus is not done by that any longer. SM

Much better than E-time, if that's what the Evil Q still uses. No worries.

Anyone use TimeTrax as a time clock? Easy, hard,
s
My figures exactly, and I have to work longer to achieve
nm
Great company -- good benefits, average pay, easy-to-achieve sm
incentive tier, ExText platform, pay by direct deposit every 2 weeks, always on time. The people in management seem to genuinely care about the employees, which is a nice plus. I have been there since October and am very happy. Of course, one man's paradise is another man's hell it seems at times, but it is a good fit for me.
Good luck! 
Easy to give that advice if you are an MT no longer working!
Stand up for ourselves? Are you still working as an MT? Have you checked the other job markets lately? Are you clueless? Stand up for ourselves and there are up-teen people waiting in line behind us to take our jobs for less money!! I think your opinion is a little cold and sounds exactly like someone who does not need a job or the money! Save it.
Any companies out there where you do not have to fill in a time sheet or on a time clock?
I would like to do my lines and be done, and still get my benefits. Any companies out there that go by line production rather than hours to qualify for bennies?
No, not a time clock. You just fill out a time sheet sm
with your days and times and lines and email it every 2 weeks.
It really seems to be a great place to work so far -- the people are great and the work has not run out. I have been paid more, but then again, I am an employee and have benefits and do not have to mess with that tax hassle anymore, so I'm happy.
Good luck in whatever you decide.
Of course TransTech pays for spaces and they have a easy to get bonus structure.
I make as much as I did at the hospital, because of the bonus structure, retroactive to line 1. They pay for spaces and expanders, and they have ops normals too. Just wanted to put an FYI so people think TT does not pay for spaces, of course they do. You can make a lot per line with the structure and also differential and bonuses almost every weekend at TT.
Time clock
I just recently started with them and so far it has not been a problem for me at all. I have kids as well and was worried about that too. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any other questions. 
PTO/time clock
PTO is lower than average per pay period. Clocking in and out is a pain. It does take a long time to get in your 8 hours. Nice people. Lots of ESL.
No time clock
You just enter in your line counts each day on the employee intranet and submit them at the end of the pay period. I don't really even have a set schedule, but I tend to work afternoons and evenings. I have 2 ER accounts and bounce between the 2 and make excellent lines. My accounts are both internet-based, so I don't have to have unlimited long distance service. I couldn't imagine working someplace where you had to punch a time clock! That would drive me crazy!
TT time clock
No time clock, but have to keep schedule. Not extremely strict, flexible.
time clock
We do not have to punch a time clock at DeVenture. That is why I accepted a position with them.
Other companies with time clock? Thanks. nm
? re WebMedX time clock, please. sm
Are they picky that you must punch in to the minute you are scheduled, or are they flexible that they just want you to punch in when you work, not necessarily to the minute of your schedule?
I'm not sure I can go back to a time clock either. I don't have a problem punching when I work, I just have a problem sticking to a very specfic schedule.
Webmedx Time clock
Is the Time Clock for Webmedx really all that bad? They seem good otherwise - just concerned about working at home w/toddler on that type of strict time clock...
Webmedx ??- Time Clock/PTO
I thought I read somewhere that at Webmedx you have to punch in and out for such things as looking up a medical term or using the restroom; is this the case? Also, I know they get 6 holidays, but is there any vacation time or sick time during the first year or 2? Any info appreciated as it sounds like a great place. THANKS!
Does Wedmedx have a time clock? nm
nm
and the question about the time clock,
that should have been a yes or no answer -- but a whole paragraph that left me still not knowing the answer, and BTW, THAT was an important one for me.
Regarding Time Clock at Transcend...
I saw some of you asking downthread about how schedules work at Transcend.
Please note this could have changed since I was hired, or the MDI-ers may be getting a different set of rules regarding this, but barring those two things:
You're expected to work an 8-hour day with one weekend day. I was allowed to choose the shift I would work (say 9a to 5p) when first hired, but after you choose you have to stick to that schedule. I believe you are allowed to choose a split shift (say 4a to 8a and then 4p to 8p, etc), but once you give them the schedule you've chosen, that's what you have to work.
To be fair, I do think they're somewhat flexible in terms of emergencies or things planned ahead of time - if you'd rather work 8a to 4p for a couple of days, for example, you won't get too much static from your TL if you inform them ahead of time.
However, you can NOT commit to a certain amount of lines per 24 hour period and do them anytime within that time frame, the old school IC way. You have to have a set schedule of hours and work those hours for the most part.
What are you talking about time clock?
I have worked for Transcend for 5 years since the MDI-FL merger and there is no time clock. Where did you guys get that idea?
Time clock isn't bad. You quickly get used to it. No big deal. sm
I find them pretty flexible, but you do have to work your total required hours.
There's no time clock but the leads monitor who is on and who isn't. sm
The account I am on has very strict shifts because of being radiology. I have heard that others are more flexible.
I dont have a problem with the time clock. sm
Actually I don't have any trouble getting in my time; I have a 38-hour schedule and put in probably 39 hours of clock-in time to get that. The thing is - you need to clock out when you do research or if you are surfing the 'net; otherwise it brings down your LPH average. I have a 12-hour window in which to get my time and my manager NEVER bugs me about when in that 12-hour period I am working.
I've no experience of a time clock either.
I think perhaps they mean the requirement to be assigned a set shift and stick to it.
But there's nothing remotely resembling a time clock... we just sign onto our platform and dive right in.
As an ex-TRS employee I still have the instant messenger, and I do sign into that when I'm working, but it's not a requirement; it's more of a courtesy to our co-workers, so we know who's around, especially if we need to ask a question.
My first day on the job at TRS I instant-messaged my supervisor and said do I have to sign in or let somebody know I'm here, and she said no, just log onto the platform and start working.
Of course, if they really want to track our logged-in time, the platform can keep track of all that.
But again... no, there's no time clock per se, nothing even close.
Need help with Webmedx's time clock. I am contemplating a position sm
with them and right now I have to clock in and out and hate it. I wonder if I'm jumping right back into the same situation as I was told they, too, have a time clock. After being an IC for so many years, I really hate this.
So, how is it? Do you find that Webmex is a little flexible at least? I just don't know if I should keep looking or what. Thanks so much for anyone with experience with their time clocks!
Yes, time clock. No insurance or any benefits for parttime.

I'm with you on the Wedmedx time clock. Not sure it would work out for me...too many distruptions
my day to clock in and clock out for every little thing. Thanks..
Any input, time clock, expander program, LPH, etc.?
Hi,
Curious about the platform used, LPH or weekly requirement, timeclock or timesheet, sound quality, work types. Do you get your preferred work types. Are you on only one primary account with backups, working primary mostly? Is ShortHand compatible?
Thanks for any info.
How many companies do not require you to fill out a time clock? NM
Thanks.
MDI-MD has a 24-hour window, no time clock to punch

I agree, the nonanswer about time clock was important to me too. NM
independent MTSO; freedom without a time clock and as the others said, same docs. nm
;
I know Webmedx has a time clock - with MQ I put laundry in, got coffee, loaded DW (sm)
went to the bathroom, etc. without clocking out and still kept my lines per hour up just fine. With Webmedx do you clock out for all these little things or as long as you get lines per payperiod or per hour it works out?
Also...do you have to clock out any time you leave the computer, i.e. to answer the door, go to the

They no longer hire part-time and may be eliminating part-time employees within the next 6 months.
They are going to have those that are PT go FT if possible. Some accounts require 1 weekend day, but not all. Most transcriptionists have 1 account with 1 back-up account. I know that they are hiring for hospital accounts in medical records and radiology right now.
Don't know, but they sure as heck pay accurately and on time. I consider that a bonus. nm

It's longer than the "standard" 65-char. line so will take you longer to make those lines!

$1,000 a month would be part-time and easy enough to do.
Most people don't consider it good pay, but it's a reasonable goal if you have a spouse or supplemental income. Even as a newbie, $1,000 per month divided by four weeks is $250 per week. That's 25 hours at $10 per hour, or 125 lines per hour at $.08 cpl.
your time is coming . . . easy does it when first hired on with TransTech, of course.
Do you think they are going to discourage you on the very first day of hire. NOT.
Obviously, you are one who is getting cherry-picked reports, but your time will come for the difficult dictators just as we all get.
So glad you enjoyed your first day.
Not easy to make 1000 - lots of ESLs or time
spent looking up addresses, etc. They kept you on because they can't find anyone to put up with the low and steady income.
Pay always on time, platform is easy, they've always been nice to me, do have several accounts to
avoid running out of work. I do MT and QA.
I agree. I am only part time so far, but I love it. The platform is easy, and sm
the people are great. I feel very fortunate to have stumbled onto them.
Pay on time, direct deposit, incentive bonus, nice management but at times workload can be a problem
requiring several accounts to stay busy.
Wish I could approach 400 lph, I struggle trying to achieve 150 lph, sm
have difficult account with various work types. How do you do it?
How are the line counts to achieve
Is it fairly easy to get the line count with Keystrokes? I just took a job with them, but have not sent the paperwork. I wanted to use it as a second job, and hoped I could get the line count in less than usual hours, because I am fast. But if it will be too difficult, I better forget it, because I cannot work 80 hours a week. Do you think someone can do 2 jobs with Keystrokes? Since you like it there, I wanted to ask you to see if that was a good idea. Thanks in advance for your advice.
$30/hr probably hard to achieve despite incentives. NM

Christmas Bonus survey...Has anyone received a bonus yet this year or expect one?
We usually get one but haven't see it yet. Just curious if anyone has been so lucky as to get one.
I did not achieve it within a week but they worked with me and I am at 1500 or more now. sm
I think that statement is to enforce that they expect full-time volume.
Anyone know of a company, easy clinic work, easy Word format, dependable pay? Help!

I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.
Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)
