Wondering if anyone has heard or worked for this company

I was working for mRecords and in May started noticing my 'account' was gone. Contacted my supervisor & was told that was the fact. Asked for another one (I'm only part-time), agreed to work for one that was offered, and then never heard back!


I've emailed a couple of times without any response.  I've sort of given up on them, but just wondered if they are still out there.


Does anyone know?


Several months ago a company called Charts in Time (CIT) hired some MTs off here. Just wondering how
it turned out for those MTs as I turned it down and wondered if I should have taken the job. Thanks.
St. Louis MQ
I would think the fact that they go through office staff rather quickly (who were some pretty good people) would be a red flag! Also, wondering about the "new" nationalization policy MQ is implementing. Hmmmmmmm!
St.Louis
Just a bit of advice, Would Like To Know, the person signing herself $$$ is a bag of hot air who thinks she knows everything. In truth, she cannot a hold a job and her coworkers all complain about her.

Don't listen to anything she says.
St. Louis office
I work for the St. Louis office. They are very flexible but I hate the DQS platform. The old one was much better. I stay with a national because you can work anywhere in the country without being tied down, but when I say I am a slave, that's what I feel like. All I ever do is work to try to get my lines-- I don't have a life any more. I don't spend money foolishly--I am just trying to survive. This MT business has really gone down the toilet ever since the "being paid by production only" and the sweatshop mentality began.
St. Louis Hospital
Can you tell me which hospital this was in St. Louis, as I am in the STL area and looking for employment with a hospital.
TIA!
Hospital in St. Louis
It was Children's Hospital in St. Louis. I believe the person in charge of transcription is Cathy White or something like that, but I do know her name is Cathy. I loved it there. Do not apply for any radiology positions at BJH because they have the most outdated equipment I had ever seen and their transcriptionists all looked like they had been through the wringer and haggard. The supervisors were very odd. Two of my friends interviewed for the job and they thought the same thing.
St. Louis Hospital
Hay! Thanks a lot for the info. I will be visiting their website for a possible opening. I figured something was not right regarding the BJC ad for radiology transcriptionists, as they are always running that ad!
Again, Thanks for the info!
St. Louis Hospitals
Hi!! I, too, would love to chat with fellow STL MTs.  Feel free to e-mail me!

PRN Transcription in St. Louis...

Anyone here have experience working with or know anything about them?


How is the MQ St. Louis office to work for?
nm
Fellow St. Louis MT HELLooooooooo
Hey, I live in St Louis, too, and would love to chat with others in my area. If you are interested, please let know, and somehow I can send you my email.
MR. DESERFLOUR - THERE WAS NO MAN WORKING AT ST LOUIS
CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AS A Transcriptionist WHEN I WAS THERE. SO I SUGGEST, THAT YOU ABSOLUTELY GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT. I LEFT THE HOSPITAL IN 2002!!! AND THERE WAS NO MAN WORKING IN TRANSCRIPTION AT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL!!
St. Louis has LOTS of work on most all accounts

Global Transcription in St. Louis. You pick how many lines, have 24 hours.

Just wondering...
I've heard great things about Amphion with the single exception being somewhat lower pay than usual - is that true? Still, it sounds like a great company - expect a mass migration of MQ'ers second only to Hurricane Katrina!
wondering .....again
Do you like the dictator's?
Wondering about this

Heard from a friend that company deducts a quarter or something like that from each report for the header or template or something?  Anyone know anything about that?  Is it for all their accounts?  Got me inquisitive....Thanks......


Just wondering......
Do you get many discharge summaries? Their site says they offer automated DS. The doc doesn't have to dictate and we don't have to transcribe. So one less report type for us lucky folks.
wondering
what kind of platform is it and what companyt? i work for one that we have to fight for work also. looking for a PT job myself.
Just wondering.....
How do you guys know all this stuff? I have worked there for about 1-1/2 years, and don't know anything about what accounts they have other than the one I am on, how they are seeking or not seeking new accounts, or anything about the general atmosphere of the company. All in all, I really don't know anything about them other than I work, send my invoice and then get paid.

Please understand that I am not questioning anything you say, just wondering why everyone else knows all this stuff and I am completely in the dark.
Wondering also

I was thinking of applying to this company and saw where you only worked a month.  What made you quit?  Trust me, I'm not going to tell anyone; I'm not that type of person even if you don't know me. 


But I really don't like the company I'm working for as I still can't get 1000 lines a day and don't think I'll ever be able to as you spend half your time looking up names of doctors, usually foreign doctors, that the dictator wants to send a cc to.  They want five or six cc's sent, and you HAVE to make sure you get the right doctor, etc.  But it is VERY time consuming even though I have a hard copy also as a lot of the times, I cannot even understand the name they are dictating to send a cc to.


So I am in the looking mode again.  Plus I wasn't able to use Smartype which I love, and their word Expander has NO words in it.  You have to start from scratch, so it's going to take me forever to build up a list of word expanders.  This issue is ALSO time consuming. It just seems like I saw something the other day about WebMedx and thought it sounded like a good company, but I'm sure there is a but with it ........there's always something about a company I don't like.  Wish I could find the perfect company.


I was also wondering...
I am testing with them also and was wondering if anyone had heard about them.... any info would be appreciated.
wondering

If someone is working as an IC, how can they be required to do X number of lines or work X number of hours when they're not getting any benefits, using their own equipment and/or paying their own phone bill?    I think I know the answer but just wanted another opinion. 


Wondering
I do my training with them on Friday. I asked for a bit of information on the benefits and am slightly confused. Are the benefits extremely expensive?
Wondering the same

Most important to me would be line rate, flexibility in schedule (window), benefits, quickest platform and work volume.


TIA.


I'm wondering
Agreement says they don't have to pay you if work is considered unacceptable - What is unacceptable? A blank? Errors?
and wondering
so, you think they are trying to mislead by putting -Offshore services and their affiliates need not apply for the below given job ad - above their job bank ad?
PDA - thank you, that's what I was wondering. nm

I'm wondering if it is (sm)

Wondering Same
I was wondering the same thing. I sent in my resume, but I couldn't find anything on them on the internet at all.
I'm new to MDI and I'm wondering if you
could tell me what LD you use (if you do an account requiring unlimited LD). I'm not able to get a good enough deal through our local company because they specify voice only calls and it would be $$ for a business use account. Right now I'm just using phone cards, but that could add up fast. Thanks for any help!
Wondering about . . .

A to Z Transcription.  Mostly wondering if they pay on time or if anyone has had a particularly bad experience with them.


Thanks all!


I am wondering about your
rather odd comment of
How can you live with yourself knowing that you were stealing from a company by not even doing the job you were paid to do?

How is not doing the job stealing? Quite honestly, that is the stupidest comment I have ever heard.

Not doing the job may mean you are unreliable or lazy, but certainly not a thief.

Wondering what you all would do
I have a situation where I was told that dial up would work with present company; however, it turns out that it is not working well at all and I am losing money over said situation. I know there are some companies out there that do not mind dial up. I know MQ and Spheris are 2 of them; however, not sure exactly what to do. Sit and wait on current company or move on? Any happy MQers or Spheris MTs out there? Anyone with another company that lets MTs use dial up or am I the only MT with dial up? LOL!
Was wondering, too.
I've been kind of interested in how much a supervisor would make. I had thought something over 50K, too. I should make close to 40K this year as an MT, and haven't really been at it very long. I'm wondering what options (if any) there are for people in this business who want to make more money. If you can't make more as a supervisor, then where can you go other than increasing your production rate?
wondering

I've also been considering TransTech.  Do Transtech employees run out of work often?  Do you have a back up account?  Do you jump from account to account?  Thank you


Wondering
I think people ask for opinions here because they don't always trust the companies to give them the full story, along with the fact that this job is very isolating and sometimes it is nice to know if other MTs are having the same issues. What is the purpose of this board, if it is not to network with other MTs?
wondering sm
I also wonder if some don't come on here just to plug their own company. What's to stop them? Don't fall for it! I am a doubting Thomasina.
Wondering?
 If the government takes care of their employees so well, and everyone is satisfied, where did the term Going Postal come from? 
i was wondering also..
Did you get any other information on this company?  
I was wondering...

Were you asking about FutureNet the other day?  Was just wondering how that was going, etc. and if you accepted a position there.  I was thinking about applying.  tia 


ok was wondering....
so many people have been led in the wrong direction as evidence by emails I have gotten. I for one don't want to mislead anyone. I have stated my opinion on the company; so far so good. I would like for others to have a place to go to work where they can make money and they are dealing honestly. So many companies have been bragged about on this board, and then found out that this was not the case. You have a great one too:)
wondering
Couldn't they simply send an email to anyone who posts on the boards?
