Legit?
I assure you Allegiant Transcripton Services is a legit company.
Yes, it is legit
Career Step is a legit program and they are partnered with Spheris for them to hire their grads upon graduation. Starting pay is around 6.5 cents per line which is in the range of what other newbies start out making in employee status.
I attended Career Step, took the Spheris Training Track and went to work for Spheris. I am also an affiliate member who does receive a small token of a referral fee, however, I am not here to give rave reviews or try to twist your arm one way or the other. I would recommend that you attend a course that is approved by the AAMT/AHDI though.
If you have specific questions, feel free to email me!
they are legit and pay on time...
You didn't ask anything else. Email me if you have more specific questions.

Company legit
Has anyone ever heard of the company Anita Niles-Lee & Associates? They offered me a job and I want to make sure they are legit before I quite my cuurent job. Please help.
RE: Company legit
I guess you have been to their website and read there? What I read is they have been in business for over 12 years. Sounds legitimate to me.

Legit Company
Has anyone heard of Mountain west.
is this legal/legit?
I love the company I work for. I love the people, love the work. Only one complaint: They deduct $12.50 out of each paycheck for a total of $25. each month for rental of their software. They said they were told they had to do that if we were IC's. We use our own computers, or rent theirs, so why should we pay to use a version of Word? I have never had anyone else do this in 15 years. Also, they want to charge a fee to do direct deposit. I've never seen that charged for either. Is this Kosher or should I say something? If so, what?
I worked for them. They are legit - sm
That is only a front name so they can't be found. Very secretive owner. No one can know the other MTs. However, pay was truly that (actually it should be 11 cents as that was what most were). Depends what work types you do. Can plow through some stuff and make great money. Other work types suck - some really bad foreigners there.
Words R Us out of Illinois ? Is this legit?
To ADMINISTRATOR: Is this a legit company?
I hope that this isn't someone's idea of a joke as I have already sent my resume. I find absolutely nothing on the internet regarding a company with this name. The ads indicate that they have several accounts already...why can't I find anything on this company?
Companies who truly understand IC and are legit won't
require that. My company says they will never require a schedule and do not direct deposit for the simple fact that those are things you do with employees, and they do not want to ever cross the line of IC/employee with their ICs. There are bound to be other companies on the same way of thinking. Sadly, I agree with another poster that said if people are willing to sign contracts and accept set hours, it will become something we can't get away from. ICs stand up for yourselves and point out the law to the interviewer so this does not happen!
I can tell the OP had legit info, but my issue /sm
is this. If someone is employed by Webmedx, goes through training and does not hit the 98%, I'm sure they are let go, BUT they are also paid for the work they did while in training. They have to be paid, it's the law.
If you get work from WMX you have to return the work typed, correct? If a trainee typed it, you wouldn't return the work without someone from your company looking it over to score it, I assume any errors are corrected also.
If you return a completed report to WMX, they have to pay you, correct? If the trainee who typed that report is let go, you are keeping 100% of the money paid to you for that report and the MT who typed it is not paid a cent? I am trying to work this out in my head and this is the conclusion I have come to. If it is correct, there is something very wrong with this arrangement. You may not have to pay someone by law, but morally that wouldn't sit right with me at all.
Horrible company, they are legit though.
There is a reason they are always hiring. Lots in the archives.
all legit companies withhold for taxes but...
when you say I found it difficult enough just paying my regular bills with the very low rate of pay this company offered, and it was impossible for me to also put aside extra money to pay for the taxes they refused to take out That can't be true. one way or another the money comes out, either they do it before you get the check or you do it after you get the check. If you could afford it if they took it out, then your take home pay would be less. So it's absolutely equal that you could afford it by setting it aside yourself. At least you got to earn a little interest on it!
legit work at home jobs
Go To: http://www.telcoa.org/id156.htm
i have worked for west.com - made $12 - $14 per hour, paid every 2 weeks
hope this will help
Since when does any legit company call us "transcribers"?
That throws up a red flag for me. Legitimate US-based companies would never say they are looking for transcribers.
Excalibur is legit and they are now hiring again for new projects!
I been working with Excalibur for the past 9 months!
I currently do transcription and document coding with them FT and i love the variety of jobs they post each week in their remote job bank registry.
Thanks

WAH MOMMY!
Anyone heard of Career Step program?..cost?..legit?
I checked out the Spheris website and I don't have enough experience to apply...but they directed me to Career Step kind of as a prerequisite to get your foot in the door for employment....there's gotta be a some kind of cost, but I didn't stick around to find out....link, after link, after link..yada yada...anyone have any comments on this setup?
just got offered a job
Does anyone work or have any info on Wordzxpressed? I have been offered a job and want some feedback. I have been in an office job since Nov and want to go back to at home transcription but don't want to get burned!!!!
Thanks
Same here right now, because OT is offered
PLUS it is the end of the pay period when all the end-of-pay-period MT's decide to get on and take away all the work -- they have been resting for 2 weeks and can work all day and night and get their lines in. YUK !
I was just offered a job...
Pay rate is starting at 8 cpl for an IC. After 90 days you get 8.5 if you have good quality. They use "Winspread" (not sure of the spelling). Have been in business for 3 years. Have direct deposit.
They offered me 8.5 cpl.
nm
Don't know about the others, but I was offered
a position. I have 20 years' experience in acute care, very good at ESLs. They offered me 8 cpl with the potential to make big bonuses - but that means I'll have to work extra and it just isn't worth it to me and there is no guarantee anyway.
When I asked if they offshored the HR person was hesitant but said they do if the client requests it.
The person I talked with a Cymed was evidently just HR and didn't even know what I was talking about most of the time when I asked questions about platform, line counting, etc.
I was offered a job with them...sm
but did not accept it. It seemed like their pay per lines were a little low. Plus, after extensive conversations with them, I felt that they had REALLY high expectations for the pay that was being offered. Unsure though because I never accepted the job after it was offered. Hope you find out the answers that you are looking for.
When I get offered anything less than..
9 cents, I tell them right out that is low and ask if they can do better. Sometimes it works!
I just got offered 6 cpl as an IC with my
10 years of experience. That was just laughable!
Don't know much about them except what they offered me
They offered me 0.085 and then up to 0.09 once off 100% QA.
Not so. I was offered a job with them not
long age. They supply all equipment and if you have an additional phone line, they will reimburse you for that.
what do you mean - should be offered?
It is offered and available dependent upon what option you choose employee versus statutory versus IC. Do not run out of work - pay is on time/direct deposit and they communicate with you - what else do you want?
Just offered 8.5 cpl (sm)
They have very good benefits, and good bonuses for O.T. and when work is out of TAT. Is this an average rate? I know a lot of you ICs make a lot more, but what about with the benefits and bonuses. Is it bad? They have a good platform - ExText, and the company I am at has horrible, user hostile software. help, please
I would take something else if offered
It wasn't for me - good training grounds maybe - hard to make decent money - at least IMHO
In looking at ads, 3.5 to 4 cpl seems to be what's offered most. nm
s
Then what happens is you are offered
a job by that outsourcing company because you know the account, but most likely as an IC with no benefits for a year, etc., etc. So there are hospital jobs few and far between that will stay in-house. Eventually they all want to save a buck.
I was offered 7 cpl
I believe you. I was offered 7 cpl by Transcription Relief Services for over 20 years experience. 
Just offered a job
with TransHealth and was told that insurance starts on the first of the month after 60 days of employment.
...is what's offered. nm
s
Offered
Yes - the original post offered only 7cpl. The accounts we inherited are paying only 8cpl. That 1 cent margin barely pays our very limited overhead. As we bring in new accounts we are quoting more realistic rates and paying our MTs accordingly.
We have some great MTs on our team - all with us because they know we'll always treat them like people, and not like a number.
We're open with them about where we stand, and they appreciate us not giving them a load of %$#% and promises, but the real bottom lines.

I also just got offered at job at 8 cpl
They told me that after 90 days you get a review and increase in your pay depending on how you do.
I was offered 9.5 cpl and they also
seem to offer a lot of incentives - almost every weekend - 1 cpl - no minimum required. That doesn't sound bad to me considering what MQ pays me after 10 years of service - a whopping 7.75 cpl and only 70% of that for ASR.
i was offered
recently too. does anyone on here have anything good to say about them?
TTS offered me 6.5 cpl
NM
6 cpl was never offered to anyone!
I don't have a clue where that came from!!!!
Yes, it was offered to me. I can even tell you the
Your name wasn't on the email, so I wouldn't expect you to know. Her name started with a J.
Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction.
I was offered a job with them
in November and told I would be contacted about training. I did not hear from them until early January and training was scheduled for the end of January. I had to move on, I can't wait indefinately to make money to pay my bills or feed my family. Just my experience with the Focus training wait time. Have they told you yet that you will have a 700 or so minute long distance bill with them during that training? Just wait, eventually they will. I was afraid those long distance minutes would be minutes to India, which would be too expensive for me.
They pay me better than anyone else has ever offered.
When I was checking around for jobs, no one wanted to pay more than 8.5 for standard typing and 4 cpl for editing. I get paid way better than that. So, maybe I have missed something.
I was offered the same 7.5 cpl with s/m
4 years of Acute Care and OP experience, after telling them my line count averaged out to 190 lph with heavy ESLs. I also made a 98% on their online test, so I don't think experience counts much with them. They did tell me that after I got off QA they would give me the .09 that I am making now, but wouldn't put in the offer letter in writing, so I told them to take a hike. I think they are a big scam.
I even offered...
...to take up a collection amongst the MTs to get him a tube of Petromalt (feline hairball remedy that makes it easier for the kitty to hack it on up). While my manager found the suggestion extremely humorous, she didn't think the dictator would see the humor in it.
:-)
once again OT offered
totally with you on this. I have not had a full pay since last year. account specifics always changing and definitely overhiring. I was switched to another account because of low work only to find out it was another overflow account. No one watches the OT. its all about how to make them look good and get everything in TAT. someone needs to watch the TAT and once it there, cut off the OT.
did what you did... got offered
highest at 7.5 with MD-IT. Turned them down.
Offered a job at KS...
...and now after reading some of the posts, I'm afraid to accept it. I can't afford to run out of work.
