Referral bonuses not paid - that's NOT RIGHT. nm
Not right at all.
They don't offer sign-on or referral bonuses-SM
As far as the mixed messages you are getting on whether it is a good place to work, I think that if you know what you're doing (I mean really know and not just think you have XX years' experience and so that means you are great) you would have a good time working for this company.
If you have really limited experience as far as types of dictators/type of work and can't do ESL, it isn't the place for you.
spheris has a hard time paying their referral bonuses as well.
Spheris has a hard time paying for referrals too...just put you in a drawing for some prize. if you win, great if not, then who cares.
They must have increased their
referral bonuses again.
You don't take into account an increased
productivity. I know you don't know what it will be yet, but it will at least go up some from what it is now. Probably initially there will be a loss of income as you learn the platform, but as long as there is enough work there is the potential for you to increase your lines.
Don't forget that the increased prices from this will
You have to think hard before shooting yourself in the foot! Can you really afford the injury?!
Doctors know EXACTLY what is going on. So do government officials - we all do.
WE are part of the problem - wanting lower priced healthcare, low priced insurance but not want to care one hoot about our health -- making gluttons of ourselves, not exercising, smoking, diabetes, heart disease, all the other crap people do to themselves (not to mention things that cannot be avoided). We don't want to pay so they find ways to lower cost and make it more affordable to ALL of us.
It will hurt us more in the long run by raising costs of healthcare and insurance to the point no one can afford it except the wealthy. Don't start with the line that only the wealthy can afford insurance and care now. Bull. It's a matter of priority...perhaps people can do without the brand new car or the satellite dish or all the video games, etc., and spend a little on insurance protection, etc.
It's NOT just offshoring. It is ALL of us. Every single one of us contribute to this picture one way or another.
meant increased line lengths.

If it was the same one, it was because they increased work. Our op note accounts have been set for
I know because I am on the HIM Department management team, not just making general comments.
I talk to a lot of MTs who like Meditech, so I am going to disagree on that one but let's just agree to disagree. It is definitely a preference thing.
There are over 50 HIM accounts and more coming. HIM is catching up to Radiology fast at Keystrokes and it does not appear to have an end to the growth in sight. I am glad to be part of the excitement!
I quit my job when they increased our production rate...
by 10%, from 10 minutes of dictation equals one hour of work to 11 minutes of dictation equals one hour of work. Radiology went from 12 reports equals an hour of work to 16 reports equals an hour of work, a whopping 33% increase. The medical increase was not all that bad, I guess, but the senior Transcriptionist had a bad habit of assigning work to me by physician, what I would call programmed cherry-picking, and it goes without saying that the ones she assigned to me were the ones she wanted to avoid. Eight hours of work usually averaged about 1000 lines and I earned $14.69/hour or $30K annually. They had given us an 8% market increase based on prevailing local wages in July of 2006, because they wanted to be the preferred employer in the area, then in October of 2007 increased the production rate for medical by 10% and radiology by 33%. We went from being underpaid to underworked in the course of 15 months.
I started at 8 cpl, was increased to 9 cpl in 3 months and 9.5 in a year. nm
nm
not to me, same skill req. look at the paycut.& increased lines
Need to get out your calculator. Ask what is their production minimum and time to accomplish before being let go.
2000 lines a day, 250 lines an hour --listening/editing/fixing
at 4.5/ln
$90 a day
divide 8 hours is= $11.25hr.
10,000 lines a week=$450.
Referral?
I would like very much to be in your shoes. Does your company need more help on a part-time basis? Care to give a referral to me? Please feel free to email me privately if you prefer.
REFERRAL
I am responding to your post on MTstars. I am looking for parttime work, 20 hours per week, Sat, Sun and Mon if available. Am currently working Sat and Sun 12 to 7 am and cannot keep those hours up. I would love to work for a happy company and get praised now and then.

referral bonus? ; -)
nm
referral bonus?
Does Transtech pay referral bonuses?
TT referral bonus
Thank you, any idea how much it is?
Companies that pay a referral fee?
I'm going to apply there (and anywhere where full time is 35 hours or less).
If you work at such a company and want me to say you referred me to it, let me know.
E-mail me.
How much do you make per referral?
Could it be due to the referral bonus offered?
:D
Whatever..as I said..I quit them...wish I were a recruiter..could use the referral..but as you see m

Anyone get a referral/hiring bonus?
I've got over 25 years acute care, heavy emphasis on OPs and ESL, and I'd prefer something that's gawd-awful flexible as I live on a ranch and occasionally lose a couple hours at a time when the SO needs help with the cattle or horses or even just opening gates while he's on the tractor. In theory, at least, I am capable of 1500 lines a day with the typical household distractions. I'm okay with one weekend day (or preferably even a 4/4 split), but not an entire 16-hour weekend. My ideal would be where they tell me how much work they want done in a day and then leave me alone to do it whenever I want to (yes, I'll put down the crack pipe now).
If anyone works for this utopian MTOS and gets a hiring bonus or even knows where I can go to find it, please let me know.
i smell someone doggin for a referral ... not nice!
I work for them too, and albeit, a good company but not a bed of roses. TONS of changes seem to be going on all the time ......... stop sniffin around for that 750 bucks. It's embarrassing.
THANK YOU!! WOW even if i wanted to work there I would NEVER give her the option of a referral as
Yes...Career Step has a referral program where you receive something like sm
50.00 for every person who signs up for Career Step through you. I BET they are affiliated. How unprofessional can one co. be?
advertising?
Just curious as to where they are advertising?
That may be but they are advertising. nm
no msg
Not advertising but looks like...
they are taking resumes, doing testing on their web site. I'm tired of going through applying, testing, etc. and then finding out the company is a nightmar so I thought I'd check firrst
Well, they are advertising for a
recruiter so I think they need to get that position filled so they will have someone who will reply to all the job applicants they have. Now, that is just my opinion.
Where are they advertising?
I don't see it anywhere.
See ImageStat advertising on here too.
Be prepared to have to buy expensive equipment, like a $300+ Cisco router because they claim nothing else works with the system, and they have a very odd, untrackable method for counting lines. It is gross lines, but sometimes the margins for reports are very wide with a tiny font. Feast or famine with them because they do overflow work only. QA is not nice, either.
They'll keep advertising.
They need Americans who will perfect voice recognition for the Indians.
Then they won't have any use for us any more.
That's crazy! I wonder how they can get away advertising that.
.
I see Discriter advertising
over and over for the Mich account and an Eye account. They don't sound bad. Anyone have the scoop on why no one wants these jobs? tempted. .
Anyone currently working on the all OPs job they are advertising for. nm
:
Just a form of advertising
Kind of like a Q&A. Like does so and so offer insurance A: Why yes they do very reasonable. Q: Any info on this company. A: Great company!! Smiley smiley tappy tappy feet. Get a room---- pleaseeeeee
Diskriter is advertising for MTs again? Y
Anyone work for Diskriter? Are they losing MTs? I see them advertising quite a bit or are they getting new accounts? Anyone work(ed) for them have any input?
Why is Transtech still advertising for MT's
I don't see them advertising any jobs, though...nm
If they're hiring, where is their job ad or link? Thanks
They're advertising for MT?/QA? via (sm)
Corporate Transcriptionist's? via a very frequently hit resume board online as a link to their own questionnaire/employment form.....so it seems. jhmmmmmm.
no advertising campaign. It's just sm
those of us who have been doing this for a long time feel like you learn better by using books. Its sad that this profession has come to the point where looking into books is considered wasting time.
Believe I saw them advertising on another board for MTs...NM
zzzzzzzzzz
Where are they advertising, Internet or Classifieds? nm
?
Does anyone know about this JG company that is advertising right now a lot. Any info would be
helpful. Have they lost a lot of people or did they get a lot of accounts.
Are they advertising? Care to share where? sm
Any info I have is old, too. Are they currently advertising? They had decent accounts a couple years ago, though I heard their QA people weren't the kindest.
There are companies on this board advertising for 8 cpl
They also want you to pay your own taxes, provide equipment,and pay your own long distance service. PLEASE. Don't do it.
Isn't/wasn't the person advertising with MDI in FL?
I recall her name, and I believe I remember seeing it associated with job ads for MDI in Florida.
They've been advertising for about a year -
NM
I remember seeing a company advertising something about . . .
benefits starting immediately after hiring. I think it might have been in regards to accruing PTO, not having to wait until after probation or one year with the company. Does anybody remember which company this was? Thanks!
MedScribe keeps advertising (see inside)
ER MTs seem to be plentiful. Why are they having such difficulty finding people to work for them?
OMGosh, TRX who doesnt pay is advertising.
Be forewarned. They DO NOT pay.
After I was told I was hired by someone advertising
on the company board here - I provided my DL#, SSN and never heard back from her - since she said up front a background investigation would need to be done down the line and with the type of work I was to do - I understood - but never again. Unless it is a very reputable company with a lot of info about them out there - I will never provide again - way too scarey.
