Just sending this to help clear TT's name as I love working for them. Big boss just sent out an e-mail clearing up this entire mess. People need to think about the potential damage they do before jumping on this board with mass hysteria with very few facts. They damage TT's reputation and possibly keep other great MTs in the midst of trying to make a balanced decision away from TT because of misinformation.
TT does not outsource nor is anyone taking over the company. Sounds like the new company who will be providing benefits/payroll/insurance sent out the wrong/incorrect material, and as soon as TT mangement realized what was going on, they immediately jumped on the situation. We don't live in a perfect world. People do make mistakes ... which is one of the reasons I love working for TT. If I do make a mistake, they don't me like I am the biggest moron on Earth. They treat me with respect. They understand I am human. When a situation arises like this, why can't we, as a group, treat them with respect until the facts are clarified and not jump to outrageous conclusions.

But rumor mill has them bought by Spheris,

Webmedx created rumor mill
I am aware of Webmedx acquiring new accounts. And I will attend the meeting so I can hear how Webmedx cares about its employees because they make it what it is. Any my quality is what I say, and I have never missed getting my linecount until recently when there is no work available to do to meet my linecount. I have worked endless hours, overtime, stat calls on unscheduled time. I have contacted my STM and discussed this on several occasions.
I am not posting unreal fears. These are realities. The rumor mill has been created by Webmedx and their lack of communication with their employees.
I agree. Without facts, you're all just stirring the rumor mill. sm
If you really have concerns, ask someone. Point blank, ask L if there is any need for concern! I truly, truly do not believe QT would ever outsource their work! I have never been happier with QT and I intend to stay, so if you want to leave, go ahead; more work for me!!!
Rumor has it...
Baltimore. Or Colorado. Just rumors, tho. Praying not AMHERST....ugh.
Not just a rumor
It is an absolute fact that they are outsourcing. There was no DD deposit issue just a money issue, another fact. Everyone can take from this what they want, believe or don't, but just remember that when you all are sitting without a paycheck or work, you were warned.
Who's out? What's the rumor?

Rumor - - yes
I am the supervisor of the Transcription Department, and I have only heard rumors! LOL! The administration likes to stick their noses in and make decisions regarding things they no nothing about, and they always mess things up - - TERRIBLY!
They now have our psychotherapists typing their own narrative notes into Ecet, and today they started typing their own treatment plan updates in a program that was just purchased (I knew nothing about it). We now outsource our initial diagnostic assessments to Transcription Connection, Inc. We are still transcribing the doctors narratives and psychiatric assessments. However, I think they will find a way to get these done elsewhere as well. One of the docs told me that in a staffing meeting they were told to make sure they proofed their work well because they were looking to start sending everything to a service, and get rid of in-house.
They do not want to say anything definite to me yet, as they still need the 4 transcriptionists they have (including myself). When they no longer need us, we will be hitting the door I am afraid. I am preparing though. I have been job searching, and I have taken all of my PTO due to surgery, etc. They are not going to take me for anything if I can help it.
I came across by mistake an e-mail path my supervisor sent to TCI, stating that if she was happy with their work they would be getting all of it. I was livid and confronted my supervisor. She lied of course and said that she had to tell the service this to get the line count pricing down. I told her that either way this was very, very unethical, that one of us, either myself or the service, were being lied to.
I am bidding my time. I am not walking out. I am going to ride it out to the end. I want to be able to get unemployment, etc. As I said, I have been with this company for going on 15 years. I have been very dedicated to this company all of these years and they are just going to crap on me. Nothing new in this day and age. Corporate America is out for themselves and no one else. It is all money.
This is probably a rumor about OSI
I am an ex-employee of OSi and did not care for some things there but I believe this is a rumor. This does not sound like something MB would do.
is this a rumor?
nm
It's not rumor...
There are plenty of posters who say they have friends that work at certain companies and offer feedback.
If it takes 3 weeks to get up to par, that's quite a long time.
What I stated above is not false. No one needs to lie about a company. I got an e-mail saying stay away from transportal they are horrible people to work for and load you up after they've sifted through the files all day.
Maybe there are different accounts and different sups or whatever, I'm just passing on what I was told from an MT friend I trust.
The girl told me they've done nothing but hassle her and she only made a little bit of money.
The moderators say to take everything with a grain of salt. Apply away, and then come back and tell us what you think.
Rumor is they are up for sale
but I have not heard anything more about that.
you said it exactly, rumor. that surrounds KS.

Do not start rumor. (SM)
If you have information, send it to the Administrator or myself and let us verify.
Otherwise, state it is YOUR opinion only.

Rumor? you mean no one has told you yet?

This is rumor. Nothing has been decided yet. sm
We are still getting final numbers from 2 different insurance companies. In the past, we have not qualified for a large group policy at a decent rate because of lack of participation. All of the big insurance companies want 50% of the employees to take the insurance and we did not have that in the past. It does look good this time though. We are hoping that the rates come back low but nothing is definite at this point.
Whoever spread that rumor
I've been paranoid ever since the pay cut rumors post - thanks, rumormonger for spreading needless misery!
That's a pretty wild rumor to be
circulating.
Do you know the definition of RUMOR? Sheesh!
You must be a riot at the laundromat! Yackety Yack!
Not rumor. I know of 3 accounts the last 3 months. sm
I was on two of them and called the hospitals to ask. The last one might be the last straw for me.
It is not rumor - they are! Some accounts want NO OFFSHORING!
It has become apparent that QT is offshoring; hence, very poor quality and the account has noticed!
Good luck in whatever you do!
No truth to the buyout rumor. It took them 3 wks to get
s
It's no rumor there is not enough work. That is a fact.
The rumor I heard was that a person with cancer
worked at MQ and got fired for not meeting line counts due to chemo. Do you think the company would verify?
Stop spreading unsubstantiated rumor.
Either show the document or stop this. I'm going to ask the moderator to look at your post. If you've information to show, put the link up so we can all verify it. Otherwise, stop speculating and causing problems.
You could not be more wrong. Besides, rumor is she sold the company today. nm
Not sure who it was to, but I heard she is somewhere signing papers. Hope not MQ. Shame that a good company is giving in to the $$$.
I highly doubt that. This is obviously a rumor. She is much too busy to bother. nm
nm
Losing 1 large hospital today. Not rumor, fact.
It is on the Eastern Seaboard and low ESL.
May not be confidential information but gossip/rumor at this point and no employer likes that.
nn
I hope it's a rumor..I left MQ for KS 3 years ago..I finally found a place I love (sm)
so I hope the rumor is not true!
It's a rumor. They have growth plans, not selling plans. nm
I think they want to be bigger than Spheris, not bought by Spheris, and if they continue to grow in the next few years as in the last few years, I think they can.
No. TransTech is out of Texas TTS is in New Hampshire. TransTech

Well I don't work for Transtech and this discussion isn't about Transtech...
and that is not age discrimination....give me a break...
TransTech
TransTech has a job posting on the job board. I have talked with the person who hires (Debbie). She is really a nice lady. They have a M-F schedule listed.
TRANSTECH
Does anyone have any information good or bad on TransTech Medical Solutions?
TIA
TransTech
I've been with them just about 2 years, best move I ever made. The best advice I can give is to give them a call and talk to them. If they are as good for you as they are for me, you'll be a happy camper. Have never ran out of work, pay is decent and DD on time, they often offer VERY good, easy to reach incentives too. Happy MTing!
TransTech
Be very careful. The owner is a very moody person. I only lasted 2 days.
TRANSTECH
Transtech is a very good place to work. The "owner" is NOT moody. The people are the finest in the industry. They value their MTs. The are awesome to work with and for.
TransTech.

TransTech
I have been with Transtech for 1-1/2 years and it works great for me. I have 20+ years in this line of work and TT is the best company I have ever worked for (and I have worked for a couple of them). I have direct deposit and my pay has always been on time and accurate. I always have work (an abundance of it!!). TT is a fast growing company, adding new accounts, and very busy. They have a very good QA team who are very helpful. They hire USA transcriptionists only - NO offshoring. TT has an ad on the Job Seeker's Board and you can check out some of the things they offer. Also, here is the Contact Us link from their website: http://www.transtechmedical.com/ContactUs.html Good luck in your job search.
TransTech
They have a lot of ads for MTs, are they growing, or difficult to work for, hard to keep MTs. What is the story?
transtech
Yes, I was offered even more money from a smaller company, not national.
TransTech
Anyone have any info on TransTech. I have an interview today.
TransTech
might you be an ex-MacGregor gal? if you are, me too.
Does Transtech pay for ???
X
Transtech
Does Transtech pay for spaces, headers, footers, etc.
TransTech
Give Transtech a try. I worked for MQ about 9 years ago only because they bought out a company I worked for. I only stayed with MQ a very short time after the buy-out. I now work for TransTech and they are a great company. You can contact them through their website at:

If Transtech pays 10 cpl for their difficult ESL account, does anyone know what the starting pay for the other accounts would be? TIA.
TransTech - sm
Do you know if they have radiology accounts? TIA
TransTech
I have checked the archives regarding this company but there is nothing up-to-date on there. I would like to know how this company is to work for, how their platform is, and overall if it is a good company to work for. Do they pay for spaces? What is their average starting cpl? TIA
transtech
i applied for them. i have five years experience and work at home. they told me i did not have enough experience
TransTech
I have been with TT for over 1-1/2 years and love it. Great bosses, good pay (always on time), good benefits, and I have always had work. It works for me !!
