Didn't Webmedx get good reviews here?
I was under the impression they were a-ok? Hmm...
Has anyone ever applied to a company that does not have good reviews on this board
but ended up liking it anyway? I have an interview today with a company like that . They opened up a training center locally and I thought that maybe I might get some local accounts, but the main reason for applying is that I am doing clinic work and would love to go back to acute care.
Has anyone every brought up to the interviewer the bad reviews, or is it best to leave that out? I am new to job hunting.
tera nova transcription? Good, bad? Mixed reviews. nm
Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!

what do you mean there are no reviews?
how do they know if you fall into full time or part time slots for insurance? what about the 120 days after employment, they review you then dont they and what about accuracy?
Reviews
Thanks much for taking the time to reply. It is something that is important to me, and I am wondering if I am being unrealistic to expect a review and/or raise after a year of service with the same service. Isn't this just good business sense on their part in an environment where it is hard enough to feel connected and part of a team?
Reviews
I appreciated the responses. I will be checking out future opportunities and wanted to be sure that a yearly review is a reasonable expectation on my part. Just starting my list of pro's and con's to try and find the right fit. Thanks again.
PS: Hate to break it to you you really summed up my situation in a nutshell. Glad to hear moving on was a good move.
Bad reviews
Yes, I work for a company that has gotten bad reviews on this board. It seems pretty much every company gets bad reviews which just shows that everyone's different.
I like the company I work for. I just think what works for one person may not work for another.
And no, I wouldn't mention the negative feedback you heard here.
Good luck!
Bad reviews
I work for one such company now. They are always getting a bad rap but they suit me just fine and dandy. If I have any concerns (and I've applied for a lot of jobs), I bring it right on up in the interview...they don't have to hire me and I don't have to go to work for them so if they aren't willing to address any concerns I have, they don't need me and I don't need them. I went to work for one such company although at the time they were getting a lot of posts about paying. The interviewer admitted that it had been a problem but had been corrected. I went to work for them anyway. No problems with the pay but no one had posted that they were so disorganized they didn't know which end was up. I say a short term understanding makes for long time friends so if you have concerns, my advice is ask away but make your own decision. Don't rely on this or any other board to make your decision for you.
Yes and No on reviews.
You have to really study the reviews here for a while to get a feel for them. First, remember the saying where there's smoke, there's fire. If you have several consistent posts complaining about pay, or no work, etc., you can bet this is probably a true issue. Like one of the posters below, when she mentioned the pay issue and the no organization, I know exactly what company she means, as I read this board daily. I've done it for years, and you really do learn the companies this way, the good and bad of each. As for the glowing, cheerleading reviews of companies. Beware of these more than the negatives. For instance, below you will see rave reviews for another company, nearly to the point of praise the Lord posts. Only problem is, the MT is a newbie to the company, hasn't been there even a month, and the others chiming in with praise are brandie new, too. Yet you have ex-MTs and old-timers with the company stating there is no work, NO work. Who do you believe? The newbie? NO! So many companies play the bait and switch. They get you on board, give you great work for a month or two until your ties are cut with your old job and you're stuck, more or less. Then you see how the company really is - you'll either wake up one day and have no work, or garbage work that you never saw before. That's the way the biz is. So, never ever believe a newbie. They mean well and are all excited, but its like an emotional high when you fall in love at the start. Then when reality sets in, its way different! When you get an occasional complaint like I hate company so and so, and its full of hate and pain, you can pretty much rest assured that something personal happened, like the MT couldn't pull her weight or quality was an issue. When its so emotional and personal, there's more to it than just a negative review. Generally I have found that the companies praised on this board were not at all what they were praised out to be. I prefer giving some with a bit of negatives a shot, at least knowing what the problems might be from the start and addressing them on the interview. Yes, by the way, bring it up, as all MTSOs know about this forum and should be more than happy to address your concerns. I've never had a problem with this. After all, we tell them we found the ads thru such-and-such web site, so we can tell them we saw some negative reviews as well. How they handle the answer is your answer!
Reviews, raises???.....
What part of that was unclear. Anyone can check production - you won't get a review after 6, 10 or 20 years much less right after your probation. If you aren't producing to suit them - you are gone, unless of course you are a pet and then you can do whatever you want..
don't read the reviews
nm
I know that they are going to be doing annual reviews now as sm
my supervisor was just telling me about them. Yes to raises but I think it depends on how high you start at. I went from 0.08 to 0.09 over a year, now slight higher.
Yearly Reviews
Does anyone knows if any of the transcription companies actually gives their MTs yearly reviews, feedback on their performance, and/or raises.
QA reviews???????The whole time...sm
i was there, I NEVER ONCE had a QA review....my team lead was good at disappearing or just not replying to IMs sent. Emails were answered a whole day later....phone calls were NOT returned and when I typed in the place of another MT who was out....i found NUMEROUS errors in her prior typed reports. What QA review??/Could not have been on the account i was on.
Good, bad or ugly about Webmedx??? NM
X
WEBMEDX is a good company
Thanks...I'll leave it in the mix before I decide what to do!
what makes webmedx good?
x
Webmedx does, and good company n/m
:)
Good benefits at Webmedx - sm
medical, vision, dental, life and disability insurance; PTO and holidays. Lots of work, you use their equipment. ESL - that may be more of an issue. But it doesn't hurt to find out what is open at this time. Good luck to you. I was outsourced from my hospital job about 10 years ago and feel lucky to have ended up at Webmedx.
Webmedx is not horrible but not good either.
Used to always get glowing reviews, but that has changed.
But it's kind of sad. Quick growth can create difficult times for small companies, I think.
regarding negative reviews for Axolotl
Most of the negative reviews from Axolotl are very old. I have transcribed from 14+ years and I have never found a company that even compares.
You might have a couple of disgruntled employees who could not and would not take pride in their work and maintain their quality posting negative things!!!
If you are looking for a good place to work with good benefits and you take pride in your work and can produce quality transcription, then you might want to consider taking a look.
IMEs and Peer Reviews
Have 15+ years of experience in this field. Any suggestions on how to find additional work???
Any info good or bad in regards to Webmedx radiology
x
Webmedx radiology MTs?? How are they to work for and good pay?
TIA....
Working for WebMedX is a good choice
From the companies available to work for, I would say this is one of the better. They have really decent benefits, the pay is good, they don't hassle you. Feedback/QA is great. I have to say they are one of my favorites that I have worked for and they are very fair to the employees. (Another good company is Phoenix).
Webmedx is a good company to work (sm)
for. Good benefits, fair pay. They give you a 12-hour window to get your work done. Be forewarned, though, most of their acute care has a GREAT DEAL of ESL dictators. If ESLs are a problem for you, you might want to consider carefully before accepting a job with them. QA is the absolute best. I think my manager is the greatest, don't know about others.
Webmedx offers PPO and good dental. nm
.
Webmedx is great for me; good benefits, sm
PTO, reasonable insurance cost. Plenty of work, decent platform (although we had some trouble last week but that's rare). I realize one company can't be right for everyone, but Webmedx has been great for me. 8 years and counting.
Webmedx has pretty good benefits sm
The benefits at Webmedx are pretty good. You are eligible for benefits after 90 days. I am paying about $400 per month for a family plan for health, dental, and vision. The coverage is pretty good for general visits and pharmacy, but there is either a $1000 or $2000 deductible (depending on which plan you choose) for hospitalization, after which insurance pays 80% and you pay the rest. There is also a deductible for certain medical supplies. My son is a type 1 diabetic and we have to pay a $1000 deductible for his insulin pump supplies. Not the best insurance that I've ever had, but it is much cheaper than what my husband can get through his work (he would have to pay $1000 per month in premiums for a family plan).
Webmedx is a good place to work and has PT as well as FT. sm
Good luck in your search.
Is this Webmedx? Good news inside for you.
Methodist Health System Selects Webmedx for Medical Transcription Technology
and Services
Company accommodates individual physician preferences and complex technology
environment
ATLANTA, Sept. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Webmedx, the fourth largest medical
transcription service provider in the U.S. and a premier supplier of clinical
documentation technology, today announced that Methodist Health System of
Dallas (Methodist) has signed an agreement to implement Webmedx's
Transcription Outsourcing Service and Enterprise(TM) software solution. A
web-native system for transcription and content management, the platform will
support Methodist's transcription needs and interface with the organization's
electronic health record (EHR).
The challenge for our organization was to find a transcription partner
flexible enough to accommodate the varying needs of our physicians while also
delivering superior quality and prompt turnaround time for our reports,
mentions Pamela Stoyanoff, Executive Vice President of Operations for
Methodist Health System.
Methodist and Webmedx technology teams worked diligently to implement
customized, blended, transcription solutions which will help the organization
meet diverse physician requirements and remain competitive. Additional Webmedx
benefits include a strong local presence for ongoing communication and
simplified service invoicing.
At some point in time, a lower per-line transcription price wasn't the
primary driver; quality and superior service was, Stoyanoff concludes.
Webmedx will replace the organization's long-term transcription supplier at
three Methodist hospitals beginning this month. Methodist chose Webmedx based
on our long-standing reputation for quality and the comfort of knowing we
would deliver an exceptional product and support, mentions Chris Cashwell,
Senior Vice President of Client Development, Webmedx.

I see a big ad in my paper for Heartland IS, many bad reviews on this board.
Stuff about them being sold and on their website is a big picture of....India? I am sort of new to the business, one of the MQ SE in the middle of the shuffle. Are there any companies that are stable? I am tired of stress.
Offered Job with Webmedx, Any Info? Good, the bad, the ugly??
The offer sounds really good. I would like to hear from current Webmedx'rs and see how you like it. Are the production incentives as good as they sound? The benefits??? Thanks in advance for any information to help me with my decision.
I would recommend something other than Webmedx. If you can get good references regarding Transtech,
x
Tested for WebMedX, could anybody give me the good, bad and the ugly on them. NM
Thank you.
Webmedx didn't about 1-1/2 years ago. Good luck. nm
x
Thomas Trans Any reviews/comments on this company?
Thanks in advance
Would like to hear from recent WEBMEDX employees. Good/bad/ugly? (nm)
I have heard nothing but good things about Webmedx, but no personal experience NM
x
I'm at Webmedx after 10+ years at MQ. Good company. Plenty of work. SM
Pay is direct deposit and on time. You have a 12-hour window and 35 hours is considered full-time. I cleared QA review in less than a day, and they leave me alone to do my job. Benefits are affordable. I don't need the insurance, but I understand it's pretty good. Don't get much PTO the 1st year, 3 days. If you know you will need to be off ANY time in the first 6 months or so, tell the recruiter. Line rate is fair and you can negotiate. They have a bonus/incentive plan that allows you to earn good money. Seems like no place is great these days, but they are probably as good as it gets. Feel free to E-mail me if I can help you out.
All the old reviews say they're horrible. Listen to those MTs and choose another company. nm

WebMedX is a good company. Decent pay for high level acute care
They have excellent account managers and a great QA dept. The platform is really quite easy with the improvements they have made, and they are constantly working to make it even better. Everything is geared to making the MT's job easier. I have been with WMX for over a year and I am quite pleased with them.
Just got an E-mail about a Webmedx town hall meeting coming up. Those are NEVER good news. FYI.
I predict they will announce that, due to tough economic times, they will cut the VR rate. You know it is going to happen.
What is Webmedx FL? Webmedx itself is located in Pittsburgh & Atlanta. nm
.
The best co. ever! Good work, good people, good pay, good bennies.
x
Webmedx ad apply at Webmedx or Transhealth ? (sm)
Apply to one address if you need equipment, another if you want to use your own? Does this mean they are still acting as 2 separate companies? Can anyone explain this?
Webmedx?? Why do you say Webmedx is foreign??
Nm.
Yes there is! Good pay and good bonuses and good benefits.
Personally, DSG is a good fit for me. Pay is good and on time, sound quality depends on the account
and I like the platform. There is not much weekend work, although sometimes is available. I get along well with the management, no major complaints. There is pay incentive once you get over a certain number of lines in a pay period. I work as an IC, so can't help with benefits, insurance questions, etc.
