Transolutions pays for technical and no-work downtimes.

Transolutions Downtime
This is true. They pay both technical and no-work downtime. I was hired a month ago (WONDERFUL company) and have it right here in front of me in the employee handbook. So long as you are a full-time employee, report your downtime to the appropriate person, and haven't refuse work on another account that does have work, you will be paid for downtime. If they have no work on another account for you, you are paid downtime. Have a great day!
emts pays for downtime
eMTS pays for downtime when there is no work or when there are system problems. 
My company pays downtime if
there is no work within your scheduled work time.  You don't have to make it up if there is work later either.  They don't guarantee lines though and the amount they pay is less than most MTs would make by transcribing, but it is money coming in.  We went several months where some accounts were running out of work daily, now lots of accounts on OT until further notice. 
Last I knew Transolutions paid downtime. sm
It may have changed by now.
Diskriter pays hourly wage for downtime

Transolutions pays 100.00 for every sm
year that you are employed. Otherwise, they don't pay squat.
transolutions pays (nm)
.
For what it's worth, Transolutions pays 6 holidays
but only requires that you work a rotating schedule of 3 one year, the other 3 the next year. I generally offer to work any of them that I can if my daughter is with her dad since the money is so good.

Does anyone work for Transolutions? sm

I would just like any information about them regarding pay, benefits, etc.  TIA!!


 


I work for Transolutions
I've been here since January and haven't run out of work. They pay technical downtime (which just happened to me, so this is for sure). They offer a week of sick time, PTO, 3 personal days, six paid holidays per year but alternate 3 one year and 3 the next year, having to work only 4 hours on those days rather than 8. I'm very happy here on their Star Team. They're very appreciate of their employees, and the president of the company has a personal conference call with the MLSs every two months, which I think is wonderful. I hope you consider coming on. They have both DOS (if you only have dial-up) accounts and internet-based accounts (DSL, cable). I do both DOS and internet accounts. I have no complaints whatsoever. Please feel free to email me if you'd like.
Anybody ever work for Transolutions, Inc?
Could anybody tell me anything about this company and what it is like??????
I work for Transolutions, too
I also work for Transolutions ~ I have only been with this company for about 5 months, and I love them! I make on average 195 to 205 lph. I have one steady account that I rarely run out of work on. Some transcriptionists have a secondary account in case they do run out of work on their primary account, but so far I just have the one account. There are times there is mandatory OT, but scheduling is extremely understanding if something comes up prohibiting you from working the OT! :)
I work for Transolutions.
The health insurance is okay. I've never had a problem with it. It costs me roughly $65 every 2 weeks for just me (medical and dental). I'm still on my DOS account and hope to never leave it. Can't say much about Apex since I've never used it.
I work for Transolutions and..

have loved it for 4 years now.  Someone below referenced overhiring, but I have never heard that said about TS or experienced that; in fact, the accounts I work on are just slightly doing OT.  Of course, there are issues that some have with their platform (Apex), but it is getting better very quickly, as they are diligently working on making it better.  If you'd like to know anything else or have any specific questions please feel free to email me.


All that said, I have also seen very good things posted about Keystrokes on the forums here but also some bad.  I guess no company is spared completely on the forum LOL!


Who do you work for that pays
pays per minute?
Actually, we both know that we are going to work more for the one who pays more!

So where might you work? My co pays 6.5.
I'm not putting that down. I believe all MT work is equal. The companies do not seem to feel the same way.
Who pays the best for VR work?

Which companies pay the best for VR work?  What schedules do they require you to work?  Do they have benefits?  I have 2 children to support so I need to have a dependable work also.  Thanks in advance


 


How is Transolutions, Inc. out of Illinois to work for?
Would like to know about platforms, pay days how often, and any other pertinent info you all might have regarding this company, specifically for radiology work.  TIA
Any Transolutions MTs who work on Apex?
Are there any current Transolutions MTs who work on their Apex system and can tell me what it's like?  Is it a good platform?  Can you be productive on it?  You can email me privately if you'd like.  Thanks very much.
The company I work for pays
for radiology by the line .. .08-.09 depending on your assignment .. our radiology MTs do very well.  The radiology work is MRI, DEXA, PET, ULS, and special studies.  Experience in doing more than plain films is essential.  The work is Monday through Friday as these are all outpatient centers.
The company I work for only pays
or anything else. They say we will go more than twice as much and make big, big bucks.  Do you believe that?  I don't.  4 CPL!!! And I bet you can figure out which company on your own.
That is low pay for VR. The company I work for pays almost
twice that. I hate VR. I don't have to do it where I work.
Acute care work pays more

I work IC for a company who pays by check in mail
Never had a bounced check either.  I can see why you would worry though.  Maybe they will do the switch eventually. 
Still waiting for work, but I figured it out. WMX pays for holidays (sm)
but only IF you get your required lines/hours in.    Of course the work was low over the weekend, but we expected that, and now EVERYONE is making sure they qualify for the holiday pay.  Make sense?
Not sure if you need bennies or not, but QT hires IC and has plenty of work and pays gross line! sm
You can apply at www.qtmedical.com It's a great place to work. Pay is always on time, always correct, recognized for holidays. They pretty much leave you alone and let you work. Very, very rarely run out of work. Depending on experience, pay usually starts around 7 to 8 cpl (gross lines) :)
I work for a company in Florida too who gladly pays state taxes because
they know it is the law.
That runs in cycles
Hospital can't find transcriptionists, don't want to pay benefits, don't want to buy the equipment or want to use the space for something that pays and then they outsource.  After they outsource for awhile, they don't like the quality of the work, don't like the turnaround time, don't save as much as they thought they would or can't verify the bill and then they bring it back in house.  After awhile, they can't find transcriptionists, etc, etc and so forth.
Could you tell me how much your insurance runs for family?
Thanks..
It's all the same thing. Alex that runs MDI-FL also
Even though Larry is in charge, it appears to be by title only because even he defers the final say to Alex.  So anything done at Transcend has to have the final stamp of approval of Alex, who also has the final stamp of approval at MDI-FL

Platform runs too slow for my expander

Spell checker you have to provide.  Management - I experienced two good team leads, neither of whom are there anymore, other than that, not impressed.  Have had situations where what I earned did not match what I was paid.   Last team lead I had had a problem with being rude and expecting everone to drop their previously scheduled lives for her, while she was virtually unreachable to us otherwise.  They do something every year and can a bunch of editors or MTs, bizarre yearly ritual.  Perhaps things will be different now, perhaps not.  Good luck either way!


Anyone know the gal who runs Professional Dictation in Alpharetta GA?
I used to work with her way back, and we have lost touch many years ago.  She probably would not even remember me, but I've often wondered how she is doing.  It's been far too long and too much water under the bridge to try to contact her again, but I was just wondering if anyone knows of her.....
