Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

We live in America, where truth is optional.

Posted By: sm on 2005-07-19
In Reply to: Bull honkey. Half the mad posters are the ones that don't like negative - comments about their company.

It's really easy to tell outright lies or half-truths and get away with it, until someone says "prove it" and posters can't. If everyone would post as accurately and objectively as possible there'd be a lot less turmoil on this board. Maybe that's why people do sling mud without facts, though, this board wouldn't be half as interesting if people were objective, would it?


However, we're in America, where too many people feel it's really, truly, all about themselves with little care about anyone around them or how their behavior affects others. All the rights and none of the responsibiltities. Our great-grandparents would be ashamed.

    This company should be ashamed 1 cpl...we do live in America, right?
    We are trying to live, right? and if it is Toth Transcription, from what I hear, it'd be next to impossible to get paid PERIOD..
    Weekends should be optional
    Not to close hospitals, smarmy pants, but to demand weekends is counterproductive. Weekend work should be optional and pay more. Duh.

    I stayed an IC....employee status is optional

    I don't know where you live but where I live foreclosures are rising and there are no jobs -- non
    I worried about my employer for part of the winter as my accounts grew sparse. I had plan to switch to being an employee with benefits but dared not make the switch in this economy (this was last year this time, got it?)
    I figured keeping my seniority was worth whatever security it afforded.

    My accounts have rebounded some and I can pay my bills.

    By economizing seriously, I have paid off my credit card and put some money aside, just in case. I'm breathing easier, thanks.

    So, all in all, I'm not complaining. This last winter was brutal, but I had a job and I paid my bills. When employment rebounds and/or national health goes into effect, people will go to the doctor again and we will be busy.

    My part of the world is like a ghost town -- everyone who could left to find work in the city -- many apparently leaving their homes to the banks. Several houses in my vicinity have been on the market more than 4 years.

    Forgive me my loyalty ... it pays the bills.

    What does yelling at the rest of us do for you?
    or they know the truth and the truth hurts. NM

    It depends on where you live. If you live in their
    service area it would be cheaper than outside their service area.   I only have rates for out of service area and medical is  139.13 for family or 168.42 depending on what plan you choose.  Dental is 20.85 for family, vision is 5.13.  These are per pay period. 

    Individual coverage would be 44.79/54.21 medical, 7.99 dental, and 1.71 vision.  

    I opted out of insurance as we have through my husband's job.  I believe  the cheaper insurance is a 70/30 plan and the more expensive an 80/20, not sure about co-pays.  Deductibles are $2000 for family, not sure about individual.

    I worked for them years ago. I only stayed 30 days because they had no work. They insisted on training in-house with them for a week, and then when I got home I ran out of work every day. They only had one hospital account - the rest were doctors' offices. This was about 6-7 yrs ago. Ask lots of questions You know how productive you are and how much work you need. Trust your instincts. One hospital account is not enough for a good MT. I can't imagine anyone is insisting on in-house training in this day and age, but any good MT should be able to connect herself and learn the technical aspects of an account remotely in, like...an hour.

    I am looking for info on DTS America such as pay, plenty of work, benefits and how they treat you. I did see the one post about outsourcing to India, is this still their practice?


    thanks,


     


    Have you ever seen in America...
    Have you seen how chickens, cows and pigs are treated as livestock in our country? Or how they are killed before being served up as Grade A American? Ever seen live chickens dunked into boiling water to scald their feathers off? It's not a pretty picture, no matter what animal or country!
    DTS America
    Anyone currently working there that I can chat with, if so please email me.  Thanks

    RUN, FOREST!!! 


    When I first started, they were great. When mgnt changed, it became the almighty $$.  I and several of my MT friends lost our jobs b/c they outsourced the work to India, lied about it, said there was no work, when there was work. One account they still have, that I worked on was Vanderbilt University Hospital, which is a HUGE teaching hospital and is the trauma center. How can Vandy be out of work? It is a  a joke that they're named DTS OF AMERICA when work is outsourced overseas.  You can e-mail me privately if you wish.


    Signed,


    fast fingers

    I worked for DTS America for about a year. They changed the way they count lines, which caused the pay to drop about 20%. We were no longer able to keep track of our own lines, as they did not provide the software for that. I worked on trauma with quality of 98.5 or better. Eventually, I was making less than $6 per hour. They were constantly running out of work (read giving it to India). They required us to check the queue for work every 15 minutes, sometimes all day long! My state government lodged a complaint, and I was fired.

    DTS America SM
    Offers medical effective first of the month following hire, which in my case was three days, as i started on the 28th of the month.

    I am not sure if they are hiring currently, but so far I love the company, and the accounts are not too difficult to learn at all
    DTS America
    I currently work for DTS America and for the most part they are a good company to work for.  The only gripe I have is we still receive our checks by snail mail (which for me means another 3-4 days wait for my check) and the work volume is currently lower than normal, but that happens with any company at times.   
    DTS America
    Looking for current info regarding DTS America.  I searched archives but most of the info is old.  Pros and cons please.  What platform do they use.  Thank you.
    DTS America
    I have a friend who has worked there a year and is very happy- makes good money. She is always trying to get me to come to work for them, but I only have dial-up.

    Health insurance carrier?  Single premium amount?  Deductible?  Pay tier? 


    DTS of America
    I do, email if you want,  terrible company
    DTS America
    Thanks Susie, I was talking about the one outside of Nashville, TN. I guess that is the one in Brentwood. Wow, they laid off that many people. That is not good. Never a good sign. Thanks!!
    DTS America
    Is anyone out there familiar with DTS America?  What can you tell me about it? 
    DTS America

    Hi.  I have read previous posts regarding DTS America and am thinking of applying with them for a part-time position. I am trying to sort out if they actually have a tie with or outsource to India or the Phillipines.  I see in previous posts that they are 100% American owned, but I do not see anywhere that actually states where their work is done.  Would appreciate any info on this company from MTs currently working there.  Thanks in advance.


     


    DTS AMERICA
    Anyone have current info on this compay?  Based out of Tennessee according to their website.   Thanks !!
    DTS America
    I work there too. There is no work left anymore. They totally over hired. You have to be on your computer almost 24 hours a day to make any kind of living at all now. By the way, that different lady is gone now.

    Med Trans of America

    Can anyone tell me anything about Med Trans of America?  Have they always had payroll problems?


    MedTrans of America
    Is the former QMT, which has always had payroll problems.  I used to work for them until they stop paying.  Before that paychecks were always late (different excuse every time).  I found out later that the owner closes up business and opens up under another name when things get too out of hand I guess.  MedTrans of America is her third company at least. 
    MEDTRANS OF AMERICA

    Is there anyone who has not gotten paid by J at MedTrans of America and if so, do you have another contact number besides the 1-800 which always goes to voice mail?


    MEDTRANS OF AMERICA
    Not only does she still owe me for a couple of files - the last check she sent bounced!! I've notified MT Jobs about her because she had an ad posted on there earlier

    about them, but maybe that is a good thing, meaning it is a good company with nothing to complain about.  Any kind of info would be appreciated, such as platform, decent pay (and on time), benefits, etc.
