Transcription Services of Illinois
Does anyone have any information on this company? I've been contacted by them and have had several email conversations with one person in particular. She seems pretty sure about wanting me to help out and said she would contact me today but so far I have not heard from her, even after sending an email to her regarding this this morning. Just wondering if I should persue this or not. Thanks in advance.

Anything on Southern Illinois Transcription
I am just curious if they have good accounts, what type, VR or straight typing? Are they a good company to work for? Do they pay at least 8 cpl? Thanks
Southern Illinois Transcription...from below...sm
 Please steer clear of this one. the owner is rude, moody, and sends out emails YELLING (all caps) Threatening and if you try to contact other MTs who work on the same account with you, she gets hightly ticked off. I told her she was crazy and then was gone! Maybe she needed medication or something.
interesting. Here is TSI illinois info

Do your own research.
I'm another MT happily working with Omni!
The inflammatory post is obviously written with an ulterior motive. I have been working with Omniscribe for quite a while now, and I can honestly say it is a professionally run business run by a truly together businesswoman who truly respects her clients as well as her contractors and employees.
I will say that quality is job #1 at Omniscribe. It's respectfully expected. Anyone who wouldn't want to do their best to put out a 100% quality product, quite honestly, shouldn't be in this business.
If you're looking for information on the company, I would suggest speaking to employees as well as the owner of the business.
You need to do a lot of research - sm
If you are starting from scratch and don't know anything, you need to start looking this stuff up on the internet. There are at least 3 types of pedals you can buy, for instance, and every company has a different requirement. You could also use a C-phone or some other type of dial-in phone for the company's system. There are many, many different things and each company requires a different system.
So my advice is to apply to a job (most put in their requirements in the job ad) and then talk to the company. Most of these systems aren't hard to learn but if you have nothing to go by, coming from tapes, I'd look into a little more and get some knowledge under your belt first.
Good luck to you.
Yes, but I do the same research now that I did then, sm
and have still taken the time to mentor people and listen for them when working in a paid by the line situation. It's not all about production. It's about quality, and giving back what I have been given. Unfortunately, it seems that a lot of people nowadays are geared to production only. However, being able to do all types of dictation and all types of dictators ultimately makes you a more valuable employee and you do end up making more money. Last time I tried training people inhouse, I was appalled to find that they were happy just running spell check, assuming that if the spell checker doesn't kick it out, then they have the right word, without even knowing the meaning or anything. I don't pretend to be the queen of anatomy or pharmaceuticals or anything, but I do have enough working knowledge to know if something fits or not. Dorlands was my best friend for many years. :-)
Please, do your OWN research
before deciding that you don't like a company, because this board is definitely biased. I have been with Amphion for going on 2 years and I can honsetly say, without a doubt, that it is the best job I have ever had. There's tons (and I do mean tons!) of work to be done, the support staff is awesome, yes...QA is strict, but after all, we are in the business of people's lives and health care...so it needs to be. If you are an excellent, quality-minded MT, then Amphion will work for you. If not, then you really should look elsewhere.......
And no, I am not a supervisor, recruiter, or management; I am simply a very happy and satisfied MT

Research
If you research thoroughly, you will find out via the internet, other employees, etc. I am currently compiling a list of all the companies that offshore...even just a little bit. :)
You need to research
American History & see just how bad it really was before unions. It's an eye opener & scary to think we're headed back that direction. The problems we're having now in MT are a direct result of too many powerful huge corporations in control without any union representation. The worker bees are always the ones to suffer in cases like this. Corporations and company owners hate unions, and there's a reason why. Because they're on the side of the WORKERS.

after doing a TINY bit of research ....
It seems its legal, as long as its non-invasive and doesn't ask questions that relate to sexual orientation, personal beliefs, etc. That would be an invasion of privacy. HIPAA for employees too (as well as ADA, etc).
In other words, the psych tests can be for ability to perform the work, etc, VERY work related.
(This makes very little sense, its a headache day for me, so thinking is a bad thing to do!).... back to my couch :-)
You've got to do some research
I'm not the original poster and this is not meant to be ugly at all. If you have to ask this question, you probably would not do well having your own accounts. Maybe you've received a letter or card from a dentist or doc that is new to the area anouncing the opening of his/her practice....same type of thing.
You've got to hustle. Do some research.
I was doing some research on Indian
MT companies and from what I can tell probably all work is done in India. They do hire U.S. editors, or at least they used to.
MTs who care enough to research instead of
leaving a blank will certainly check other reports on the system. If a drug name is slurred or cut off during a DS, she might check the H&P or consult and see if she sees it there, or she might find out which Dr. Smith the referrer meant, etc. All part of the job. Other reports are accessed a need-to-know basis, and an MT often needs to know.
I'm not too lazy to research this...
The only esoteric element about your postings is how you manage to transcribe with all of these conspiracy theories running rampant through your brain.
What a delightful co-worker you must be.
*YAWN*
market research
They didn't do the market research itself, they did the transcription of the interviews that were done for market research.
Okay then, how about Webmedx? I'm doing research.

Unfortunately, I did indeed research it, was proactive...
had the same problem the above poster had, could not get into the website, thought maybe I had the wrong website. Thank you for being so helpful and sarcastic.

Use the research box, not the Google box and (sm)
see what you find. If it is the same company that has been discussed on this board recently many times, it is not good, several employees have posted about not getting paid and having to turn to legal proceedings to try and get their money.
Again, not sure if it is the same company but do plenty of research. Good luck!
Not unhappy with my job Right Now, but I would be will to research it.
I love my job, but I feel like the future of MT in general is very insecure. I would and I have investigated other possibilities.
On further research, I was correct sm
in my assessment of this person. Quite a bit posted about her on on this board over the years.
Does anyone know anything about a company called Chart Notes out of Illinois - sm
Do they offshore? They claim to have transcriptionists with 10-12 years experience. Any info on this company or experience anyone has had with this company would really help us out.

The more research I'm doing, the more contradictions I'm finding. nm
.
Research & ask people who work there
The rate may be lower but if the account is better with fewer bad dictators and impossible ESL's and the freedom to do your work instead of countless conference calls and useless emails - you end up making more bang for your buck. That sure is true in my case.
Figured with research and networking somebody would know.
Of course I don't expect someone to answer me and tell me one specific company who absolutely has the best benefits. Maybe I should have worded that differently. I just figured someone would have some suggestions. Thanks for the advice on the private insurance. I may just end up doing that because out of three companies that I have spoke with the insurance is expensive and not worth it. 
Do your research and check the archives, and no
it isn't a good company.
Use some of your research skills and search the
archives. SS is a terrible company and I would not recommend them to my worst enema. You won't find much good about them in the archives either.
