Is there anybody out there who worked for TransHealth, quit, and then went back?  How did it go?

Full-time:  work a 40-hour week or average 12,500 lines per pay period.  Part-time:  work <40 hours a week with a minimum of 6,000 lines per pay period.  Pay periods are 1st through the 15th and 16th to the end of the month.  Hope this helps.

I was told they expect 150-175 lines per hour.  Their Policy, Procedures, and Benefits Handbood says 40-hour week OR average 12,500 lines per pay period.  Part-time is a minimum line requirement of 6,000 lines per pay period.  I just started with them and, yes, I have a set schedule, 5 days a week, 8 hours a day.

I am wondering why TransHealth is still looking -- are they not  a good company to work for? They have had that posting for editors for quite some time?

In general - wondering - what is average pay for QA/editing positions?

From my experience, TransHealth is a waste of time.  They have absolutely no regard for their applicants.  Let's just say if you are lucky or I should say unlucky, you will hear from them.  First you take a miserable transcription test, then you take a written test, and if you pass both of those, you will be scheduled for a mini-test over the phone.  The test is a definition test.  They ask you words, you need to know the meaning.  They catch you totally off guard.  If you don't do well on the mini-test, it doesn't matter if you passed the two other tests, which means they are more concerned with definitions than your transcription ability.

Their process is very time consuming and in my opinion, not worth the effort especially from a company that is afraid to post their compensation.  So I say thumbs down to Transhealth.  It's a waste of time. 

So here's my question.  How many Radiology people know the definition of abduction versus adduction off the top of their head without looking them up? 

What is the definition without looking it up?

There is a lot in the archives, but I'll share my experience.

I just started working there a couple of weeks ago.  I like it.  I'm struggling because it has been a long time since I've done acute care.  It is hard work, but every day it is getting easier.  I have to look up stuff A LOT!  But that's due to my inexperience.

QA has been very helpful.  Office staff have been very friendly.  The platform that I work on (ChartMatrix) is very easy to learn.  You have to have your own word Expander (I use ShortHand).  They have a built-in Stedman's dictionary in their spell checker.  You have the ability to look up previous reports, which I love and have found very helpful.

They allowed me to pick my own schedule.

Medical benefits start the 1st of the month after you start.  Pay is fair (better than I made at MQ though less than I made with my previous small MTSO).

Any questions in particular?  I'm glad I made the move.  I feel nervous that I'm not up to my line count yet, but I haven't received any negative feedback about that (yet), so I'll just keep pushing myself to improve each payday.

Good luck to you.  I left my e-mail above if you'd like to chat by e-mail.

I have read the former posts archived here about TransHealth.  I would like to hear more from anyone who has anything to share.  Any current news on TransHealth?  Steady work?  Pay?  Benefits?

Thanks, Lynn

With all of the negative posts out there about companies, I just wanted to let all know that there are still some good ones out there, TRANSHEALTH.   I had to leave TransHealth recently due to increased financial obligations and the need to return to the outside workforce.

I noted that there are several posts for this company, and would encourage anyone interested to look into them.  I regret the decision of having to leave.  The managers, IT techs, QA people are terrific and very supportive.  Their platform is great.  I have been subject to some horrifying systems where the companies actually expect you to achieve your line counts or keep them hidden.

Just wanted to share this information for those who are looking.

What's the word on Transhealth?  Good or bad place to work?  Do they have enough work for everyone they hire or do they spread them thin?  What about pay?

Thanks.

Two months ago I would have recommended TransHealth to anyone.  Now, they've change the way they count lines, and my productivity dropped by 20%.  One of the accounts I'm doing is 100% ESL.  The other downside is that for transcribing you have to use a clunky, slow, cumbersome text Editor inside a database program called ChartMatrix.  So you don't even get a zippy word processor. 

On the up side, there has not been a lack of work for many months (although there was when I started).  The staff is friendly and responsive, very kind and encouraging.  They do quality control, but don't pick at their MTs for individual styles. 

I was just offered a position with this company. Anyone ever heard of it? Good or bad?

Does anyone here have any info on Transhealth?  I may be jumping ship from current company and am considering this one.  Thanks.

is the day our (TH employees) lives went in the toilet.  All the promises unkept, no raises, tons of company BS, layers of management, and more.

Maybe you who have always been WMX employees are used to this, but particularly in the past year this company has gotten impossible to work for.  I intend to have my notice in by the end of this week.  I am sick of Mr. CEO and sick of all the excess office personnel who probably have not had their pay cut.
