They are an offshore company with a front in the US.
Not that company anymore, but yes they do offshore sm
They currently offshore to a company that starts with a D in India. They don't lie about it though, it says right on their website that facilities have the choice and it is the facilities not wanting to pay as much that drove the offshore movement. All of the QA is done domestically though - used to QA it and they did okay, but they still always have plenty of clients not allowing offshore so their is still job security with them. I'm on my own now, but I don't think anything has changed lately since I left last year.
American company - They do not offshore
And probably as stable as anything can be these days. They are strictly U.S. Good pay. Let you set your own schedule and there is plenty of work. That doesn't mean their clients will not offshore for a cheaper rate at any given time. Paid training, earn 2 weeks PTO first year, direct deposit, and benefits. Platform is awful but the way they establish templates makes it worth it. QA is great. They encourage you to send reports. I read awful things about them, but found that not to be true at all. They are a very small company (150 MTs) so you can not expect an HR Department or complete organization but the work is steady and I have found them to be supportive. Three tier pay by skill level.
ETP going to offshore methinks. Consulting company
helping them document they could not find MTs in USA. How is MOSAIC plan working out??

They offshore work
Some of their people are really nice but they send a lot of work offshore. They care about the all mighty dollar and not the people that work for them....
He would have fun with the work being sent offshore
If WE are going to be nick picked for commas, semi-colons, etc., then what in the world happens to those reports being sent offshore? They don't understand English let alone where to place a comma or not to cap a generic drug name. When then day comes for me to correct offshoring mistakes ---- I will kiss this job good-bye.
They offshore and u run out of work!!!
You will run out of work as it is with them and when they find offshore to cover the account, you will lose all your work!!!!!!!!! They are a lying bunch of theives!!!
It is well known they offshore their work.
They do not hide that, just wondered if it went to 100% now.
Companies that do not offshore work
Are there any companies that pay a good line rate and are good to there MTs that do not offshore there work? I am trying to help a friend looking for part time work, but she is staying clear of those that offshore..
Any help would be appreciated.
They offshore. That's where all the easy work goes.
All that's left for U.S. MTs is ESL and difficult dictations.

Does OSI send work offshore?
If so I won't bother. TIA
THey offshore the good work. nm
It if offshore work. You'd be better off working
at Wal-Mart.
She's right TT does NOT send work offshore.
Never have and never will. The day they do is the day I quit because I never have worked for a company that offshored and I never will.
OSI does send offshore work

Yes. I will not work for companies which offshore.
If we all did that, the companies would have no choice but to come back and give us our jobs back.
They claim it is only 15%, but it is more like 60% offshore work.
The offshore swine get preferential treatment over the US transcriptionists. The screen shows there is work to do and suddenly everything is gone but the bad dictators, and I do not mean 10 jobs, I am talking at least 45 jobs at one time off my accounts just disappeared. I thought about changing my name to hari skrishna for a while so I could get some work, but found another job instead.
Do they send work offshore?
Just wondering.
Not much. They offshore, too. You'll get all the crap work.
I thought Transcend did not offshore work.

TransHealth does not send work offshore. Hires only US MTs. nm
time to work offshore hours and grab
all you can away from the 'partners,' eh?
I was offered a position editing offshore work that
was also Surprisingly good. I knew without being told that the work was being done offshore as it was not that good.
If I were to go to India, or any other non-English speaking company I would not be able to do the work either, but then I'm not trying to compete with native MTs. If I say I have a first rate product, then I need to be able to prove it and thus far I haven't seen it.
I have talked to too many hospitals that do not care if the work is done offshore. sm
It is hard enough for the public to understand what we do, much less have them stand behind us in this.
Are there any companies left who don't send work offshore?
?
No need to look. Sending 90% of the work offshore has put money in the bank for me. sm
It has lowered my stress level. I work half the hours I used to. Unfortunately for those of you that have your heads in the sand, there are options for companies now that do not include putting up with what we had to for years from MT's. My accounts are happy because the turnaround times are better than ever and the quality is about the same. The offshore companies have improved greatly in the past 10 years and the quality for some of them is the same or better than some in-house departments. Even my customers are amazed when they realize this.
I tell my customers that the work is being done offshore and guess what? THEY DO NOT CARE! They just want it done fast, done right and at a lower cost. They are happy and refer us to other hospitals who also DO NOT CARE THAT IT IS BEING SENT OFFSHORE.
You are fooling yourselves if you think hospitals will not use a service if they send work overseas.
I just wish I had done this 10 years ago instead of 3.
If you think I can't sleep at night, you're wrong. Quite the opposite. I don't feel bad about sending work out of the country because I am now providing money to someone who might otherwise starve.
As Americans, we do not know what it is like to truly be hungry or need shelter. If we did, we might appreciate what we have a lot more. I certainly do now and to be honest, I am happy not to have to listen to every whine and ailment of transcriptionists and excuses all day long. I KNOW the work is getting done.
They only offshore if the client wants it. Most accounts do not want their work offshored. NM

Doesn't it bother you that they send work offshore? nm

Wrong. Companies chose to or not to offshore work, nobody makes them. sm
My company does not offshore work, absolutely will not. We've actually gained/kept accounts assuring clients that we do not. We have many clients, cutting edge technology for both customer and employee, a healthy growth rate and a high MT retention rate. It's not impossible to have a successful USA-only based company. Sadly that may not be the norm anymore, but it's a choice MTSO/CEOs (whatever they may be) make and in my opinion maybe cutting some of the bottom line and offshoring is being done in place of producing a high quality of work that keeps a customer happy and not looking around for other service options. Subsequently I think these companies then suffer inferior work further because they are paying less and/or maybe have contractural obligations. Personally I'd like to think they'd still prefer high quality to low prices and inferior product. I have to wonder if these offshore companies are losing just as many accounts because of their product. I just know I am glad I work for a company who doesn't outsource, doesn't plan to, and has every intention to remain successful because quality does count.
The thing is, if we just "suck it up" and send the work offshore to lower sm
the rates, there will be no work for U.S. MT's. There are plenty of hospitals and doctors that do not want their work offshore to keep us all in shoes.
Precyse has had problems with lack of work, too. They offshore heavily.

HAHAHAHAHA! Washington PROMOTES offshore work, not just in transcription. sm
The biggest disappointment to me is that AAMT/AHDI really does. Most of the big MTSOs use offshore, I am just small potatoes. I do not know if any of the biggest ones do not.
how do we work it? Easy answer - work for another company. That happened with the company
I was working for. I would wake up at 4 a.m. AND ON THE WEEKENDS TOO because they needed "coverage" supposedly and I would sit until 9:30 or noon without any work. Sorry, but my rent of $1450/month could not be paid with only $57/day. So I got another job and when I got the equipment and everything, then I quit for the other employer.
offshore overseas.... not outsource .... correct term is offshore.

This seems to be pro-offshore board. Messages against offshore often just disappear.
