You're at Medware right? A lot of former OSI'ers have gone to Medware.

Told by trainer. But you're right
I have to call again. I'll have to get on the phone and call tomorrow morning nice and early. 
winnie
Thank you for the info. It is amazing the things people will say when they are not saying it to somebody's face, but anonymously. I don't know who this person works for, but she has a mean attitude!
Thank you IC MT and Winnie
I thought this was the case and was just researching this after the
comment Sotired made about her accountant oh yea and you have to pay your 15% S.S. fee.
He is very knowledgeable so I am sure if I had to pay it, he would have advised me.
I was wondering if her accountant set in a different way where she was exempt from SS taxes or paid a lower amount than what most ICs pay into the system. Sotired - could it be that your accountant just gives you the final amount without breaking down what is you are paying...percentage of federal, percentage of social security, percentage of state, etc. and so you assume you are not paying any social security when in fact is is part of the total tax bill? That is the only thing I can think of unless your accountant is able to exempt you from social security taxes. I am sure he is competent so I may not understand your particular situation.
It is good to get different opinions and make sure I am doing the right thing because I do know there are very stiff penalties for not paying social security at the required amount of 15% of your profit earnings as an IC status (without statutory status). I just wanted to make sure I had it correct from an IRS and legal standpoint.
Winnie - does Medware own TTS?
OK - you work for Medware, and TTS and Medware have exactly the same accounts which makes me think that Medware is funding TTS. Same people have in the past or still do work at both companies. Why not just combine the two publicly and at least Medware maybe will pay their employees on time. Both companies stink in my opinion and yes I have worked at both of them.
To Winnie - I do my own taxes not an accountant
I fill out Schedule SE which is the social security and medicare tax form. However I have thought about hiring an accountant if I am paying too much or tax that I don't need to be paying.
But do you think THEY'RE great?!?!?!?
LOL
I think they're great.
I am not aware of any pay issues. No problems for me anyway. The only issue I've heard of is with the line counter having a technical glitch. It hasn't happened to me, but apparently if you check your lines during peak hours it hasn't counted all your lines until later. But they are communicating with us about it and having it worked on.
And yes, I'm a real employee, not management or paid actor, LOL.
If you never worked there, then how do you know they're great?
???
i think they're a great company!
x
If you're happy there great, but it is
the worst company I've ever worked for.
they're pretty great
They are very consistent overall. Oh, now and then you get a nitpicky change made to something. (you can see all your reports after QA'd) But every communication i've had with QA has been very positive. I've even had an appreciative response after bring a QA error to their attention. Yes, you will be informed if you are being kept. You can even ask for a little reassurance during the probation period, ie, 'how am I doing?' When you're off of QA, QA doesn't have much of any contact with you. Your liasion keeps you updated with an e/m or two a day. That's about it.
But if you know you're a great mom and you know everyone loves you, sm
why would such a great person like you need a card to redeem herself?
They're great; lots in the archives
Yeah, you get bonuses based on your lines per hour rate, for all lines, not just the extra ones. The past few months I've been able to add 2 cents to my line rate based on the bonuses. Insurance is about $50 out of my paycheck for just me.
Lots of stuff in archives; go to the page numbers at the bottom, hit Ctrl-F for find and type in WebMedX.
The only possible negative I can think of is ESLs and slightly more difficult work, but if you passed their test, you should be fine. You're mostly on the same accounts, so you get used to them.
Annabanana - you're a great person!
I have no word for it! It is just ridiculous what some will post here! Ugghhh.... The funny part is that I agree that someone should know how to spell their company name and give real facts! There are times when I see posts stating they can't find a job, but there are spelling errors all through the post. It kind of makes you wonder............ 
I think they're great. Hired on a few months ago.
No problem so far!
Of those, I've only worked for MDI-MD, and they're GREAT...
Good luck on your decision. Sounds like you have some great opportunities from which to choose. Go with your instincts and I'm sure you'll do fine.
I have worked for them for about six months. They're great! Work is always there and sm
pay is always on time. They're very nice to work with, too.
I'll answer questions about PDA. They're great. sm
The ladies are great. I had a really good account and I'd never leave if it weren't due to tax issues in my state that really suck. If you're a good MT and keep the hours/lines you promise them, you''ll be fine.
you "think they're great." Would you dismiss an employee with that 1st sent?
,
Read that post below on hospitals? They're definitely good for great bennies! nm

As a recruiter, I'd hire an Andrews grad in a New York minute. You're doing a great job of se
They are properly trained. They are ready and able to work from day #1.
Wouldn't YOU like to have training that made you a hot commodity the minute you graduate? Maybe you should go back to school so you can be an arrogant MT and not be penalized because you aren't cutting it.
As a famous model once said Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.
Good luck in your future endeavors.
mt trainer
that's the point. no one got it. they ended up saying that the owner was too busy to do any hiring. I interviewed for it too. 2 weeks of my time for nothing.
What trainer?
Initials
Well of course the trainer is going to say
she loves Meditech, then if there is an issue it becomes your problem.
I do wish you well, but Meditech just doesn't get any better.
Well you said up above it was regarding the trainer position
and they wasted your time. Now you have a problem with the way the owner conducted the interviews? I work for this company so I don't like to see the owner knocked down.
My trainer is not so good.
I love the company, but I am not very impressed with my trainer.
Shannon T. is the trainer there
who trained me and another MT. Neither one of us worked there long; we had the same supervisor, GH. If you go with Milner and have Shannon as your supervisor, you might like working there. Shannon seemed like she'd be a good supervisor. She certainly was an excellent trainer.
Nah, the newbie had the best trainer...
including asking to work OT without recording...I have already seen it. She is definitely a keeper! Only those who refuse to do so are fired or made to be miserable so they leave on their own.
did anyone have to call MDI-MD trainer for their
Bayscribe training? They said if I didn't hear from them by 15 minutes after my scheduled time to call them. Its looking like I am going to have to call in about 5 minutes. Just wondered if this is common?
Is there anyone who works as a trainer? sm
I have been working as a trainer for well over a year. I have many, many years experience in MT and QA. I am trying to get information on what the average pay is for a trainer. Thanks for any info!
The trainer didn't email you?
My trainer sent me an email letting me know that my computer would be arriving and to confirm when my training would start.
In the email, she gave me my user ID and password to log onto the computer. This is so I could set it up and make sure the internet was working properly before calling the specified number.
Maybe they don't do that with everyone? I don't know.
I am interviewing for a trainer position. What would
you ask for per hour? I will be training all new employees on the software that the company uses. Thanks for any input. Yes, by the way, I have been with this company for several years but not sure what to ask for in this position. Thanks!!!
I have been contacted by a trainer in the US already. Still unsure about this.
They said they would overnight the pedal. Still unsure if I should change jobs. Yikes! If anybody could suggest a safer bet that would be appreciated too. Thanks for your feedback!
Yes, it seems to be rather slow. The trainer said she loved it, though, sm
so I will hang there awhile longer. Perhaps I just do not know all of the tricks. I was told to wait 3 months before asking for any changes, so I don't want to rock the boat right off the bat. So far, everyone has been really great to me.
Thanks for your input -- glad to know I'm not the only one who is not fond of the platform.
CMT trainer for MT course on job seeker's board?
Now they want us to give out trade secrets to our international labor partners, aka Asian MTs? That's like training your successor before you know you are being fired. The indignities of this profession are piling up....
How is the trainer, team leader or regional mgr
They've already said that it could be months, maybe even into next year, before all the problems can be fixed. Why would the team leaders or trainers have answers that the technical team doesn't even have, and if they do, why haven't they fixed it for everyone??
I'm doing okay at MW after 2 months. Didn't have the trainer screw-up that you had. TL and QA
s
They usually give you an appointment with your trainer once your stuff has arrived. nm

Support very slow, had to train myself on platform. Trainer kept
p
Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM

Great company, great boss, great account!!!nm

System great, pay good, everything great, but most managers from old Edix, problems, poor people ski
when you are out of work, you are out of luck. If you are good at brown-nosing, are tough enough to be without any self-esteem, and have maybe money coming into the household on the side in case you tick someone off, then you may succeed, for a little while.
Don't ever ask questions or have problems with anything. Don't ever have a problem. Don't think you will have any control over anything you do, either.
A few 'good' managers remained when I left, but the new ones were all from the old Edix, and were completely into numbers, cared nothing for individual MTs...if there is work, you BETTER be working. If there no work, you will hear nothing, no one will help you.
You are pathetic! I have a great life, loving family, work for a great company.
You might want to fix that.
You really don't have to shout (angry person), but yes you are wrong!!
That is my last word to you!
I will add that getting a great pay check every other Friday from Medware really puts a huge smile on my face.
Oracle is great. Bayscribe is wonderful great line counts.
The trainer at OTI will always answer any questions about the platform and if you have any problems they have already worked them out, so just ask. Good luck!
YOG - Lots of work, great office staff, great money. NM

Loved Alltype! Great management and great accounts.
wah - i miss it there!
Hope you're enjoying those slave wages you're earning.

It's a great company -- lots of work and great pay. sm

AXOLOTL - A GREAT COMPANY WITH GREAT INSURANCE
Axolotl has AWESOME, AFFORDABLE insurance. Family plan medical and dental costs a little over $300.00 MONTHLY. They also pay for family plan vision in its entirety. STD, LTD, 401K with match and flex spending account, great PTO and HOLIDAY pay. OH and paid downtime in the case you run out of work, which doesn't happen often!!!
So you guys feel you're getting paid what you're worth with VR?
I'm not trying to be snarky. I've never done VR, so I'm trying to understand.
You're happy with your paycheck with VR? Do you find the files to be as bad as the original post implied?
So you're telling me, basically, they're bad news?
They offered me 0.095/line and you know - it sounded too good to be true, but I SWEAR the recruiter told me they do not outsource. Oh brother... I just wish they'd be honest. I really don't know what to do.
