Do you know of any companies that provide computer, with or without cost to the MT?

for their transcriptionists?  I am finally able to get high speed internet services in my area and am anxious to get started working at home. 

Thank you for any information. 

Good Day,

Hope some of you are willing to help me out.  I am running out of Unemployment Benefits and need to start applying for jobs again.  Tried a few months back, but gave up after not receiving any decent, living-wage offers.  Now my computer is on its last leg, throwing another obstacle into my job-search efforts.

Would anyone working for a company that still provides a computer to full-time employee MTs please provide the company name and, if you know, what they charge for computer rental? 

I did research this in the archives, but there was no current information, and I had previously read a few times that more and more companies are stopping that practice and requiring MTs to provide their own computers.  In my case, that is the old the chicken or the egg problem.  My personal computer is old and does not meet some company's hardware requirements.  I cannot get a decent job without a new computer, but I cannot pay for a new computer unless I have a decent job. 

If anyone would care to share any good job openings, that would also be great.  LOL 

Any help is sincerely appreciated. 

Thank you in advance. 

I need a company that allows you to make your lines without demanding that you be on from this second to that second.  If it's part-time it's obviously because you have other things to do and your life doesn't revolve around a set schedule.  If I can get my work done at 3AM so why would that bother anybody?

Is there a company that doesn't mind when you work as long as you meet your quota and are accurate?

I have two years of acute care experience, and I need a part-time job to supplement my current income.  If everything works out, I will need to go to full time in March.  At this time, I can only work Friday and Saturday nights.

I have been applying to several companies, but they keep giving me the run around.  One company even told me I did very well on their test and that I was put in a pool of transcriptionists to be contacted.  The recruiter called me once, and I missed her call.  I called her back and left a message, but I have not heard anything else from her. 

Any advice would be appreciated. TIA!  

Any good ones out there for IC's?  Part time?

Does Spheris offer IC status?

Any help appreciated!

When I got pregnant, this was with a different company and a different insurance plan (not transcription related) 8 years ago, but I did get maternity leave that was paid.  I don't think our insurance at Webmedx has maternity leave, but it does have short-term and if you are out of work 14 days that kicks in, so that may apply for maternity leave as you take FMLA, I think.  I am not totally sure, though, on our insurance or how short term disability works, but that is what I was told before when I inquired.  If out of work 14 days, short-term kicks in at a percentage of your regular pay.  You can get more details when you call.  :)  Good luck to you.  Just know that when you search you will find what you want.  Hang in there. 

and you have to use theirs.  It's a great deal though, you get a brand new Dell computer with flat screen monitor, foot pedal, etc.  It's strictly for work, nothing else can be loaded on it and no one else can use it.  Helps to make sure you are maintaining a HIPAA environment and they provide full 24/7 tech support - it breaks - they FedEx or UPS a new one ASAP.  No rental charge either - I think there may be a deposit now though.  It comes already loaded with all the software and VPN client stuff.
