This must be a consistent problem

Posted By: older posts state the same thing -sm on 2008-09-20
In Reply to: Anyone else at CardioScribes nervous about not receiving the line count yet? sm - need a real pay day

As an IC you don't have to give notice if you are leaving and Tonya should know this.  I stayed through two pay cycles and that was ENOUGH.  You have to beg and continually ask to get paid so your situation is not unique.  


I think a big part of the problem is it comes from India.  I left right after we received a notice that the line count function did not work and that our lines are counted manually.  Why was the line count such a big secret?


A growing company is one thing but pay is another.  Pay should not be contingent on growing

Work is consistent
I work at AllType and we are consistently busy and getting new accounts as well.
Consistent work

I know there are a lot of negative posts on here about MQ, but it is the only company I have worked for that I did not have to worry about being out of work. Some call it the *cesspool*, I call it a safety net if my primaries ever get low on work, and I don't have to waste my valuable time calling someone to ask for work because it is automatic if primaries are low. They also pay on time everytime and have been very flexible with my schedule, I prefer a split shift. Pay could be better, but more than some other places, and always having work available is the most important for me as being out of work would devastate me financially. As a matter of fact, it was the guarantee of always having work that made me switch to them as the national I was with previous was running out of work on my primaries too often and I had to spend too much time begging for other work. I am very happy at MQ after experiencing working for some other nationals, TT and KS specifically were fairly consistent about being out of work in my experience. I also really like the DocQScribe platform at MQ and the fact that they supply all the equipment; I no longer have to worry about what would happen if somehting went wrong with my personal computer and I could not work or afford to get it fixed or replace it. I have never had a problem with communication, my PS is great at getting back to me promptly.  


The people complaining about the *cesspool*  at MQ on here are the same ones who will complain about being out of work when in actuality work is available, they just refuse to do unfamiliar accounts, thus affecting their own paycheck, never happy. Personally, I don't have enough extra money to be that picky about work and I am relieved to find a company who can consistently supply me with work. Good luck in whatever you decide and I hope you find the right fit!


 


At least one thing with SS is consistent . . .
You can always count on this clown to show up being rude and obnoxious!  Seems like upper management has a lot of time on their hands, doesn't it?  Seems a little odd, they're the ones ALWAYS running ads looking for MTs and most of us have our choice of jobs when we start looking.  What's wrong with that picture? 
Is there consistent work at MDI-Fl, Precyse, or

Stay with the one that has the most consistent work available. nm

Exactly! MTSO needs a consistent IC that she can count on. Take off now and then but you

Consistent work with All-Type NJ?
Anyone work for All-Type in New Jersey? Am considering them and wonder if their work flow is consistent or are there lots of dry spells? Any other information would ge helpful. Thx.
Fast Chart is Consistent
I have been with Fast Chart for about 10 months. You're right. You do start at the bottom, but rapidly move up. They do pay for all headers and footers. There people are great and completly honest.
Is this consistent 3000 lines per day
I have hit 3200 lines on a secondary ER account, but not on a consistent basis because the work ran out.  This was also working overtime on a VERY easy account with very good normals.  It is my understanding that this account no longer exists.  
Does Focus have a consistent work?
I've been hearing good things about Focus and just took their online test. Is it true they have sufficient work to keep you busy and will give you one or two accounts and not a jumble of different accounts?
I meant a consistent workload.
Sorry, it's been a long night at the computer. I should have caught that.
Are there any companies with consistent workload?

No matter how many accounts I get, there never seems to be enough work and now, with the holidays almost here, all of my accounts are picked bone dry.  Bah humbug.


 


Goodluck - consistent work? not a chance. nm

The download speed is not consistent, can be as slow as

dial-up at times.  I had it for a year so I know.   Satellite is also not secure, so if company is 100% compliant with HIPAA satellite would not be allowed. 


I had lots of problems with my satellite, though I was never without for more than a day.  Customer service was the absolute pits.  They have since updated some of their equipment that is suppposed to eliminate some of the issues.  


 


You sold yourself short then. There ARE good compoanies out there with consistent work. sm
I work for one that is praised on this board and attacked on this board, depending on which way the wind is blowing.

The money and consistency are there for those who work hard.

My apologies for lumping you in with others.
It's been pretty consistent for me, but I work for two companies and type several doctors
and even with that, sometimes it gets slow, and then when it picks up, it is really hectic.  It's so hard with this type of work to get it just right :)
I AGREE COMPLETELY! I'd rather be paid a consistent, respectable hourly rate
