decent living, yet you come on this board and trash TT all the time! That really is two-faced. You don't deserve to work for TT!

I make that on an easy rad account
NM
I have an easy account and make a decent living.
And while you are at it, TT Management,
BITE ME!!! You were fools to file this lawsuit. $294.50 to lose all credibility in the MT World. Sad, truly sad...
And many thought you were one of the good guys.
You obviously are on an easy account sm
Not everyone is quite that lucky. Some really have to struggle to make their lines due to tough dictators and voice quality issues.
An easy account; I see, you don't
have to put any effort or pride into your work. Typical of those who bite the hand that feeds them. B**ch and complain, moan and groan, oh poor me, I'm taken advantage of, boo hoo. You have to come here and be anonymous to do your complaining. You have probably never had the guts to talk to your account manager or lead about your concerns with the company. Go back to the easy as pie work and stay stagnant, like a moldy pond.
I was down about the account last week but now love it. It was easy to get used to. The first sm
day was really rough, the second was a just as bad but 2 weeks into it and I really like it. My counts are good too, averaging right around 1400 lines a day, which is good for these old fingers. Docuscribe is great, but I have worked on it before for the big Q.
Agree about Oncology, not easy account . sm
to learn, especially the medications, about half of which are experimental and not on the FDA-approved marked yet - thus, limited lookup and references on them. I did Oncology FT for 3.5 years at the Q for MD Anderson and was quite a challenging account/specialty that had to be slowly learned.
I make that much $ too but i work very hard. Its possible, not easy.

Make it easy on yourself and move to TransTech
:0
EASY to make line count!
My experience was the opposite. I routinely did 1600-2000 lines a day, WAY over minimum of about 1200 lines a day. I can't make that now in my current job, but at Spheris it was easy. It does depend on the accounts you're assigned, though, so I don't doubt that it COULD be hard to make line count at Spheris. Just depends.
Can you say where you work where it's so easy to make your lines? All I come across is crap out
s
Not so easy when you make top pay and work days and hours of
xx
Not easy to make 1000 - lots of ESLs or time
spent looking up addresses, etc. They kept you on because they can't find anyone to put up with the low and steady income.
been with spheris 4.5 years, easy platform, good clinic account
nm
how horrible but Acusis/DRC outsources to India, just what Spheris will do with that easy account. n
,
depends; can make more $ on easy platform/7 than hard platofrm/8-9 cents
nm
Well I make about 60,000 on one account.. sm
BUT... that is having my own account. The norm is working for another company at a low line rate and you would have to work really hard to make that! :) So I understand what your saying. It is a ploy to get people in the door that think they can work at home and do next to nothing for 40,000 a year, and unfortunatley some people fall for it. I cannot tell you how many people have asked me about my work and wanted to do it because they thought there was no work or effort involved in the training etc. Very frustrating!!
I would rather work on 1 account and make more money, than 5 different ones! No thanks. sm
I think their new program absolutely sucks and there are a heck of a lot of people who say the sound quality is horrendous. I wasn't sticking around to find out. I made my decision as soon as I saw what it was about and knew it would slow me way down. Hey, to each their own. If you like it, fine. I am happy about my decision and glad I did it.
I am on a new account, doing work types I cant make money on. nm
xxx
with KS make sure you know the platform/account/equipment/ESLs;
nm
And you just started on DQS brand new account and make 260 lph. You are extremely amazing but to be
honest I dont believe you.
The account that I am on is FIFE, but it is a total outsource. Might make a difference. nm
nm
Anyone know of a company, easy clinic work, easy Word format, dependable pay? Help!
x
My account went to India, have been struggling to make any money for the last month, crappy work. nm
xx
I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.
Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)

Thx...Unbelievable!!! - nm

Unbelievable!
WOW, that does not surprise me though. She lied to me several times, and caught her in it and still acted like I was wrong. How can a company like this continue to be in business. I am going to continue my descent on her, no one ever should have to go through something like this and especially what happened to you, that is even worse. I have written some of the schools that represent her explaining to them what is going on; I hope they do not recommend her. I am awaiting replies and I will let you know. She is messing with the wrong person by not paying me.
Unbelievable
This is just pathetic. I don't care what he says. It's all about the almighty dollar. They pay crap over there and they receive crap in return. Has anyone seen the kind of work these Indians do who can barely speak English? Sad sad sad.
LOL...unbelievable...LOL
.
Unbelievable
I can’t even believe that you said all that…you did say one thing in your little rant that was true…you outsource work because “it’s less expensive” which honestly is what it all boils down to! We all are looking at that dollar so don't act like the employers are the only ones...the companies are looking for ways to line their pockets and obviously outsourcing work makes that happen. Go ahead and outsource to other countries because one day, someone will come up with a way to do away with your cushy position and outsource it, and the script will be flipped back on you! I am a hard working Medical Transcriptionist and I resent every word that you said.
It's not unbelievable at all
I average 275 lines per hour on a high ESL large teaching hospital account at 9.5 per line for an average pay rate of $26 bucks an hour. Many, many MTs I know make this and more.
Unbelievable
Yeah, wouldn't you think that these highly paid administrators would sit down and talk to people who have been doing this work for years? Instead they call up these companies who promise ANYTHING to get them to sign on and for the first couple of months use really good transcriptionists and then the quality just goes down hill. These cheap transcription companies mostly don't care because they are making lots of money and just move on to the next sucker. But nobody notices for a while and then a really bad mistake is made and the doctors go into orbit. Think of how much time and money they end up wasting.
Unbelievable
I can't believe what a psycho this guy is. How unprofessional and ignorant on his part. How many executives take the time to 1) read this board, and 2) continue to taunt and argue a point when they are so easy to prove wrong? I did send him a private reply via email earlier today, so it's not like he didn't already hear my reply to his original email. This is all pretty scary if you ask me. I'm through arguing this point. Another MT has posted that she had a similar experience and if you're reading this, you can see the caliber of management at SoftScript, so there should be enough here for anyone applying to form their own opinions about working for this company.
Unbelievable
Oh my gosh, you are literally bonkers if you THINK Transtech has recruiters. TransTech has a good enough reputation that they don't HAVE to go out and recruit. They merely post an ad on here from time to time when new accounts are added or if an account needs more coverage. Some of you people floor me with the stuff you come up with. TransTech always has enough work if one doesn't mind learning a new account specifics. That's the problem though. A lot of people would rather stick with one account and not learn anything new. They get in a comfort zone and make more lines posting negative remarks on a message board than they do actually working. There is no company where everyone is going to be happy and if you aren't happy there you have your reasons. I have been with them for 3 years and I have never been happier. I have plenty of work, nobody bothers me, I always get over my line count, the paychecks are ALWAYS on time and correct, not to mention they NEVER bounce and you can call the office and speak with Tracy (one of the owners) and anyone else in the upper management or middle management about anything. As a matter of fact, if anyone who has questions about the integrity of TransTech wants to THEY can call and these people will talk to them, too. They have never tried to hide anything and have always been the most honest people I have ever worked for. I love this company and I will take up for them in a heartbeat. All I can say about the ones that post negative things about TransTech is that if you have had negative dealings with them it is because you were not producing the amount of work you obligated to when you signed on, you're work ethics didn't match what you presented yourself to have and/or you're one of these MTs who are hired by other companies to slam them. So, suffice it to say, be careful who you brown nose, it always comes back to bite you back...always. I bid you adieu!
Unbelievable that they are doing this.
Unbelievable...nm

Unbelievable!
YOU come on here and call her an idiot for her post and when she defends herself, you accuse her of being fired up well, DUH!!! No kidding!!
She is trying to help her fellow MTs with some useful information and you are a little small-minded troll trying to spar with her over trivialities.
Just go away unless you can make an intelligent (and not RUDE) contribution. Thanks.
Unbelievable, 55 too old! I will be sm
54 next month and far as I am concerned just getting started good! People think they want that system but they really are ignorant as to the system. You won't live any longer with the canadian system than you would if you had no insurance! We have flaws, many of them, but still the greatest country in the world!
Unbelievable .... sm
Finally a job comes out that pays decent, .10 cpl BUT you have to live locally in California. Not going to do me much good over here in Georgia, lol. 
Unbelievable!!!
I spent a few minutes today reading the posts about DIT and their professed Christian company, treating their MTs as family, and then not paying.
And, lo and behold, right there on the Job Seeker's board is yet another ad from them.
The unmitigated GALL of them to advertise for MTs, especially on the very same day that people are posting about not being paid by them.
Do such dishonest people NEVER get their just desserts???
Unbelievable.
You are evil beyond words. Go away before someone drops a house on you, too.
Unbelievable!!! Maybe if OSi had better training
and decent account specifics, MTs wouldn't have to bother you management idiots all the time. This was a good post from you though....exactly what everyone hears at OSi. There is actually no help at any point at that company.
ANOTHER unbelievable ad - with the link!
THANKS, OSI, FOR SENDING OUR FREAKIN' JOBS TO PEOPLE LIKE THIS CLOWN!!!!!
I am expert in MS office and can do any kind of data entry or transription jobs and i amk looking for more jobs.

sickening and unbelievable...
Hope you find a better job soon!
Yes, it is unbelievable. I think that if an employee
is hired by an MTSO, then there should be a policy or law or something that an employee gets paid whether there is work or not. This is the only industry I know of that most employees do not get paid if there is no work, at least a minimum ($10/hr ?). If there is no work at your doctors office, the receptionist still gets paid, if there are no customers at a bank, the teller stills get paid. Why is MT the exception? 
If an MTSO knows an account has inconsistent work or is overhired, then hire an as-needed IC, or oncall employee, not a full or part time MT. Then the MTSO wonders why it cannot keep qualified staff. Try this - pay me downtime and I'll stick around. And, include downtime in your budget/pricing for clients. MTSOs must learn how to staff properly as a medical center staffs RNs - you have your FTs, PTs, weekends, on-calls, paid on-call, etc. This is not rocket science!!
Too unbelievable for words
Let me see, to be able to make 25.00 per hour you would have to type about 3100 lines per hour using 8 cpl. How is that humanly possible?????????????????
It is SO unbelievable...this job requires
us to constantly keep up with the new procedures, meds, surgical instruments, etc., it is a constant learning curve...and it just kills me that these companies offer less and less money every year...been doing this for 20 years now and it has really gone down-hill! Someone needs to understand what it takes to become a skilled acute care transcriptionist! Maybe the Feds can help us out...they're doling out billions to wealthy investors these days...
Unbelievable! The Indians
can't even MT very well, much less do QA!!! What's this business coming to...
Man, this is unbelievable. What is Medware saying about where the money is? nm
nm
unbelievable. Work for a week sm
without getting paid? What a nice way to clean up their back log for free!
Back a few years ago this profession started being advertised by the schools and in the rag magazines as a work at home job to make tons of money. That is when this profession started down the tubes.
Because it sounds like an easy work at home job, everybody is coming out of the woodwork. Folks who can't spell the word HOSPITAL practically are trying to open MT companies to make big money.
It is very very sad!
