In Reply to: Geez, it's so illegal to hold back a last week's check, regardless of the reason. - I would not touch these people. nm
By all means, take advantage of their lack of labor law knowledge, and SUE THEIR LITTLE HINEYS!

Webinar -Evolving Medical Transcription: Technology's impact on traditional transcription process
Hey everyone, check out this link. This is what we are up against. Be sure and note how 3M or whoever is the sponsor of this webinar throws in that dictation and transcription is time-consuming. Nevermind that EMR and VR take more time and money to be successful and it only takes 38 seconds to dictate a returning patient and 2 minutes to dictate a new patient versus 500 clicks on a point and click EMR or the mess VR makes and having to have an Editor come in and clean up the mess. Propaganda that we should know about.

I am only part time but I work for Scan Medical Serv. and another company and I am just asking
 if other MTs are seeing their work getting very sparse with this company and if she has lost work or what the problem is. I am thinking of moving on to another job offer if this continues.
First Medical placed an add on the jobs board
10 cpl/11 cpl weekends. I've heard pretty good things about them.
WebMedex pays 10 cpl/11 cpl over 6000 lines - Lots of ESL, you have to clock in.
anyone see the post on job board for regional medical center, 13 cents??

Do you mean TMT Transcription or Tidewater Medical Transcription sm
known as TMT. Their tactics are to look for you so it sounds like them.
Anyone taken the transcription part of NTS
National Transcription Services test? This is one of those mttest.com things so probably isn't representative of their dictation, but good grief.

Are AMT Transcription and Landmark part of the
There's an ad for AMT on the Job Seeker's Board that takes you to info about Landmark when you click on the Click here for more details link. ??
I love it. They want 10-12 hours a day, 3 days in a row. Hopefully they mean split up between the 2 MTs. If not, they better be supplying a voucher for carpal tunnel surgery, gah.
A wav pedal for the audio transcription part....(sm)
I honestly don't know if you NEED one or not...there may have been manual 'play/pause' buttons you could click on with a mouse, but I cannot remember for sure, so don't quote me on that. Reference books are definitely handy...I had to break open my AAMT rule book for a couple of things I wasn't 100% sure on, and even had to pull out my old dusty Dorland's that I've been using as a foot rest for some obsure thing I couldn't get a definitive answer off the 'net from.
Like I said, I enjoyed taking the test because I've honestly never tested before. I've only been doing transcription for 5 years now, and it was always with the same company, and still have oodles to learn. The part I enjoyed most though was the actual sample transcriptions. Fun to hear other voices and accents and type up material I never got exposed to before.
Just give it a shot! After you finish a 'block' of testing, it asks you if you want to stop and come back to it later or keep going. When you first sign up for the testing, it assigns you a log-in and password, solely for that purpose that if you need to take a break or plain ol' stop, you have that option.
I shoulda asked the interviewer how I did. No part of the test said anything like, 'Sorry, but you stink and you can go away now.' I guess if you pass one part it feels you are good to go onto the next? No idea honestly.
Go on...just do it. 
The two ladies that I talked to, both before and after testing, were very nice and I'm sure it's a great company. I just knew where I really wanted to be is all.
Yes, the transcription part is easy because I have been doing this for so long but some of the
terms that I dont use a lot I forget the meanings if they have a lot of parts to them. The terms I am used to are a breeze but they seem to put in words some of which I dont use frequently. So, we shall see. I was sort of fun actually. I did the test after working a whole day and not sure that was the best thing.
Medical Transcription, Inc. in NY
In researching for jobs, I noticed this company and was wondering if anybody knew anything about it - comments please.....
USA Medical Transcription
Anyone know of this company and what they are like?
$60,000.00/Y for medical transcription?!
... so sorry to hear about your dissolutionment about MT pay. If your school told you that you would be making $60,000 a year, that is so deceiving. How long ago were you told this wrong information? It's heartbreaking when I hear so many people tell me their school lures them in on this statement. It actually burns me up. Now, I even hear a school advertising on the WAV FM radio advertising hotel sites where presentations will be given on this lucrative career. The ad says that there is a very great need for medical transcriptionists and you can work at home for hospitals and doctors and make as much as you want. SO DECEIVING. I have a good notion to show up at one of these seminars and stand up in the middle of the talk and tell it like it is!
At one time, YES, you could make $60,000.00 a year. Since technology and the nationals have taken most big chunky accounts, if you were to make that kind of money, you would need to be chained to the computer. SO SAD. Don't get me wrong, it can be done with a national. Only a very savvy Transcriptionist who has the right conditions i.e., steady account, knows drs well, expanders, works more than 8 hours can do it but it is getting increasingly difficult to attain that yearly income with pay going down.
Anybody know anything about USA Medical Transcription? Would appreciate anything. nm

On the Job Seeker's Board it says USA Medical Transcription. That is all I know about it. It says they are seeking transcriptionists for VA Hospital work. Thanks.
USA Medical Transcription
I applied - took a test which was not so difficult. It was a few weeks before they finally got back to me (I subsequently emailed for a reply) saying I'd passed.
The pay schedule is not very friendly and their offer was for 7 cpl with an opportunity, depending on the account to which you're assigned, to go to 8 cpl...

USA Medical Transcription, Inc.
I worked for them for about 3 months last fall. I didn't QA, though, just transcription. I was on a VA Clinic account (lots of ESLs), which was lost, so I found another company. But they had other accounts and offered to give me one of those. They paid on time twice a month.

USA medical transcription
If it is the company out of SC, I worked there. It was great until I got sick. I had to have surgery and the President herself assured me everything was okay and my job was safe. To make a long story short, I had complications after my surgery and they terminated me.
The supervisor was HORRIBLE to deal with as well.

RE USA Medical Transcription
I have been working for USA for over a year. It is a great company to work for. They do always pay on time. They do not pay for spaces. I like the flexibility I have on the account I am working for. (acute care)

USA Medical Transcription
I can only tell you what I know about this company and how they used to operate. I worked for this lady for about 2 years when I first started out in the business. Wages were low, hours were long, and she did not pay for spaces. She used to fine us for every little mistake. The only problem was that her opinion of a mistake was different than other references, which would make sense because for every mistake you make, it is saving her money. I would say RUN for your life. If you hit the space bar, you should be paid for it. I stayed there until I had enough experience to get a real job, but I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone if she still operates the same as she did before.

Does any one know of any other Medical Transcription workathome companies which are good?
CMC Medical Transcription, Inc.
The CMC I know is based in Seattle, a great company to work with! Most of the transcriptionists who work for CMC are located in the Pacific Northwest, but CMC contracts with transcriptionists located all over the country – from New York to Arizona. Because it has transcriptionists in so many different time zones, CMC is better able to schedule service for clients that need a short turnaround on a 24 hour basis, such as emergency rooms or pathology labs.
CMC has acquired its clients, as well as its contract transcriptionists solely through its reputation for excellent service in the health care industry. Colleen’s goal in starting this company was to establish a business that takes pride in its quality service. CMC realizes that a well-trained and supported Transcriptionist provides a better product than an ill-trained, unappreciated worker. Therefore, CMC strives to provide their transcriptionists with the finest in both technical and emotional support, as well as a good living. CMC continues to grow and diversify. Its clients consist of primary care clinics, emergency rooms, pathology labs, hospitals, and related health care companies. Most of CMC’s clients are in the Pacific Northwest, but it has recently taken on clients in other parts of the country. You need a willingness to work, a solid background in MT, your own dedicated computer, and a fax machine.
USA Medical Transcription, Inc?
I checked the forums and didn't see many, if any at all, posts on this company. Anyone work there? What's the pay? What's the account like? Tons of ESLs and bad dictators or are they decent? What are the people like?
I don't mind doing VR work, in fact I love it, but it depends on the pay.
ZNF Medical Transcription
ZNF pays semimonthly after the 15th and last day of the month. They have direct deposit. Transcription is done in Microsoft Word within the MT World platform that controls uploading and downloading of files and the delivery of normals, templates, etc. The scheduling is flexible in the sense that you can work whenever you'd like as long as you meet customer TAT (generally 24 hours). They do not pool work, so you don't hear a different voice on each job and can build up speed on your doctors. Their quality expectations are high, and they only hire folks with 10 years of experience at a minimum. I hope that helps.
