to know that Enterprise has been upgraded a number of times over the past year alone, and the clunkiness has pretty much been nicely smoothed out. It's a good platform.

I wasn't happy, but to each his own. nm

Wasn't happy with them at all . sm
Check the archives. They're famous for giving you a setup or hire date and then never bothering to get in touch with you again. It was almost 2 months from being offered the position to actually working. Maybe that's changed with new HR. I can't say. I was given many promises that were never kept. I know I worked on two accounts that were both horrible. Slow, boggy platforms. Very long CTs and MRIs. If you do one or two specials a day you're lucky. The worst for me was the hand written log you have to keep ... all day long, with about six rows of information on every patient. Very time consuming. Not for me.
Transcend was not for me. I wasn't happy (sm)
with the pay system. For VR editing, they deducted 29 or 30% off pay, and that made a BIG difference in pay. I felt like they were skimming off the top. Lines counted should be lined paid IMO. To each his own, it was not for me.
I wasn't complaining. I am quite happy with what I make.
My point was that experience in this field means nothing as previous poster thinks it should, and you have just argued the point beautiful.
I personally could care less what others make. I am happy with my wage and that is what is important to me.
That wasn't my experience there. I wasn't on that kind of all-inclusive acct, either. nm

Saturday work
IC looking for Saturday work with a few hours during the week possible. I have 8+ years clinic transcription. Would be possibly willing to do ER notes. Thanks.
I got mine on Saturday
I got my stub in the mail on Saturday and it was availabe direct deposited into my bank and this was my first check! Hope this helps.
You should receive it Saturday. Sometimes

It IS Saturday. You might not here back from anyone until

YES, they do, all day Saturday and Sund

Saturday banking
Banks generally do not post anything (debits or credits) on Saturdays but if they do at all it would be debits not credits (they would make money this way). My bank is open on Saturday too for convenience but nothing is worked up until Monday morning as the 'main corporate' bank is the one that actually does the work.
It is DD and usually in my bank on Saturday before
.
They think if they post on a Saturday, we won't

got my check on Saturday
I am not worried--
Looking for a Saturday position
Does anyone know of a company that might take on an MT for Saturday work? I have a 40 hour job, but I would like to pick up some extra work PT for Saturdays as an IC. Thanks
Saturday a.m. Anyone at TT have work?
Is it just me, or are there others out there without work this morning? Trying to get paycheck in because system goes down tomorrow night last day of payperiod again, and wanting to get lines. Is it just me? Thanks for letting me know either way... getting paranoid over here.
I work for every Saturday
I'm an IC, split shifts morning and evening hours during the weekdays. I have off Fridays and Sundays. I work third shift hours every Saturday for 8 hours, ending usually around 8 a.m. (or later if I choose to keep working). I earn a weekend differential when I reach 800 lines on Saturday and I don't have to share the work with any other MT, be micromanaged or interrupted.
With my regular cpl rate (which is above the norm offered by many MTSOs) plus weekend differential, it is well worth it to me to work overnight every Saturday morning.
The rest of Saturday is mine to spend with my kids as I please. I have been doing this for 2 years now and I actually prefer third shift hours.
I felt the same as you did about weekends and family. I had worked many years in a corporate setting prior to transitioning to MT over a decade ago. I always had weekends off. I wasn't about to sacrifice my weekend family time for any job, even if it is a job that allows me to work at home.
Trust me, it's not an easy schedule to keep and I do get tired come 7 p.m. Saturday, but being a single mother and sole supporter of 2 pre-teen boys, it works well for me. I have to do what I have to do to provide for the 3 of us. Saturdays allow me to earn more and seeing my earnings for that 1 day makes it well worth it for me to wake up at midnight every Saturday for work.
Best of luck to you. I hope you can find a position that allows you weekends off to spend with your family. I, like many other MTs, had to create a situation that would allow for both.
No - I had worked Saturday through Wednesday
took Thursday/Friday off and tried to get back onto system Saturday and found myself totally locked out. I know there is a way to take your ID from the work queues and just give you access to your lines and completed work so this was totally unnecessary in my view. I seriously doubt it is legal to withhold that information from an MT.
PS This was Saturday the 15th, payday

It Saturday a.m. and still not working, anybody called it in?(nm)

Received mine on Saturday 2/2/08

My check from TransTech has never been on SATURDAY !
Something is definitely going on. I'll bet the new payroll person inhouse is doing payroll this pay period. The outsourcing company did such a good job for us MT's. Had to see it go.
Mine has always been in on Saturday and not before. Since payday is not until
TT has it's faults but they've never been a single day late on a paycheck and have paid early for holidays many times. I don't think they can be blamed for not paying us early.
oops! should be "transcribing"..it's Saturday!! nm
if the paydate falls on Saturday
we got paid friday. if it fell on Sunday, we got paid on Monday. that's how it was where I worked. That is also how our bank takes our mortgage payment. If the due date is Saturday, they take it on Friday. If the due date is a Sunday, they take it on Monday.
Considering you initiated the process on a Saturday -- sm
...and there's often a somewhat implicit business hours (or days) when talking about turnaround times, personally I'd wait and if I didn't hear something tomorrow (Tues.) I'd give them a call on Wednesday. But that's just me.
KS just TODAY (Saturday) lost an sm
account. Very very hard account and all of a sudden we are not doing it anymore.
I have never had them call on my days off or anything and I am an older veteran MT. This account was stressful though.
I work both Saturday and Sunday...
every single weekend. I have for many years. I have 1 child at home. How do I do it? I just do it. I do a lot of things in life that aren't easy, but I get by. I knew when I became an MT that I was entering the medical field, which does, contrary to what some people may believe, operate on a 24/7/365 schedule in most instances. People do get sick/injured on weekends. If you aren't satisfied with working weekends, your best bet is to find clinic work. Then, your only complaint may be the pay, which is generally lower than acute care because the work is considered easier. Oh, well, I guess you can't win.

If my payday falls on Saturday we are usually paid
on Friday, if Sunday, then we are paid on Monday. We also have a pay schedule that is published at the first of the year so we know when our paydates are.
Patient = Patience Thank goodness it is Saturday.

Wow - are you the same mtMom I talked to Saturday on Gab board? sm
Either way - good for you! You have to take a break from this job sometimes. It has a way of making you lock yourself into your own little self-imposed prison without realizing it. I have taken breaks and I am back at it for a year now and I do get bored but not burned out yet ;-) I'm sure I will have to take another break some day. Email me if you want an email buddy ;-)
Getting afraid of waking up on Friday/Saturday
Every weekend now, a flurry of e mails how we better work the weekend or find something else. I am downright weary. What about all those times we did not have any work, or when there is no work when we are scheduled. Double standard here but not for the MT. When you say jump I need to ask how high. Sorry about this, but I am wanting to avoid my e mail come the weekend. The threats are just too much for my stomach.
No email of any kind here. Was off Friday and Saturday
not sure if I should stay up all night waiting for something or get some extra sleep!!
Looks like they require everyone to work Saturday also. Not an issue for me but maybe for some.
Work schedules:
Full time: 1) Tuesday - Saturday
2) Monday-Thursday, and Saturday
Part time: To be determined but must include Friday or Saturday
As you can see from the above schedules, the transcription work increases at the end of each week.
Monday is our slowest day, and Friday and Saturday are our busiest days.
under new hire plan, Saturday/Sunday all day, 1cent more

Paid every other Monday. Mine is usually in the bank on Saturday. nm

Happy New Year. May we all have happy home lives (sm)

I can't say enough nice things about this company; very flexible, you area a statutory employee. That means that they pay the employer portion of your SS. Great on time pay, tons of work. Do your lines and you are left alone! Expect to be responsible though. Pay for your phone; rent a Lanier or a C-phone if you don't have one; BayScribe platform. Anything that is a bit of an inconvenience is more than made up for. You will know to the minute how much you will make and how many lines you have typed. Check it out!
Wasn't right for me at all. nm
s
it wasn't a can you help out, it was I need everyone
to work extra.
wasn't for me
pay was directly tied to quality and number of blanks you left.
Are your sure her name wasn't
I even talked with the owner over the discrepancies of my checks. He gave me his word that the problem would be fixed --- it never was. Your right, they should be sued, but who has the time and/or money to do such? That's why they're still around. One other thing -- I can't believe that a company like this is allowed to advertise on this website. We have to follow rules as an MT when we chat. Why shouldn't companies have the same stipulation. With all the negativity with this company (and I can back it up with phone records, paystubs, etc), they should be banned from advertising here, or anywhere else!
No, she wasn't.

Boy, it sure wasn't that way when I was there...sm
We were always behind, it seemed, and always asked to type more, more, more. I'm not defending OSi, but this was in later part of 2006. Wonder what has changed? I can't believe, if this is the MK account, that they would send charts overseas. They were so !#$# picky (MK) that I got put on probation for some really, really tiny errors. Took me for a whirl and hurt my feelings, big time.
I had to quit just from mere principle. Harsh, very harsh! I can't imagine, from the quality I understand comes from India, that they would get away with making any errors whatsoever. Neither here nor there now, I'm just amazed at how fast things changed.
thanks - I wasn't using the right box
sounds like mixed reviews. Guess you never know til you try it yourself.
It wasn't MTs that were let go, it was QA, as that
is now going to India. I wonder how many accounts that CBAY will have this time next year.
A company that I used to work for offshored work to India. First it was just overflow because they couldn't stay in TAT, but then company saw how much they could save and sent more work to India. The problem is they weren't QAing the work and was of such poor quality that the lost the account, which ultimately cost them their business.

It wasn't all THAT bad for me
I will admit when I first started with Amphion, I HATED it! However, I was there for 4 months and only left because I was offered better pay somewhere else, also I was really running out of work bad on my primary account, I assume from overhiring.
It is true about the mandatory OT, but I liked the money, so I did do some. When I didn't do the OT, I was not reprimanded. I attempted to quite because of the QA person on my accounts was really condescending and I just couldn't take it anymore. I was talked into staying by the supervisor I had and I was even offered (later) a QA position there, but didn't take it. My supervisor there was fantastic and wonderful. I know they have other supervisors, but I couldn't tell you how they are/were.
I fell upon hardtimes close to Christmas and was having to move back to my mother's to take care of her house, my husband lost his job, and after explaining my situation to my supervisor, they sent me a 300.00 dollar check to help me with getting the lights turned on at my mom's house. I was informed I did not have to pay that back, but under the condition that I help someone else in need. I did feel appreciated at Amphion, but as I stated, I needed higher pay and I needed affordable insurance. With my account running so low with work, I just couldn't do those things, and it really made me sad that I had to leave.
Yes, they are very picky about quality and really some of it was so minute that it was ridiculous. However, if something ever happened with the company I am at now, I would go back. Under the condition I was with the same supervisor.
Anyway, I wish you the very best of luck with finding the company of your dreams. I am now with Axolotl and like it very, very much. Of course, there are a few bumps just about anywhere you go, but I enjoy my job.
Good luck and take care
