The main office was in Bolingbrook but they built an office in Yorkville last fall. SM
I think that the owners live in Yorkville, so it was built close to their house. Nice office, just pretty far out.
Does anyone work for the Buffalo office of MQ and how do you like it. Do you get one main to mostly
work on or how are things managed there.
Just because main office is in NY does not mean they are not owned by offshore. I don't know if

Main office is Texas, accts all over, yes to DD every 2

PROBABLY IN THE HEAD/MAIN OFFICE (LMAO)....NM

I'm surprised the main office didn't find a bunch of
What a totally assinine 'gift'. I'll bet the globe was made in India, too.
Talk to your leads or call the main office to see if you can get a backup account...
I have been there for over a year too and have always had plenty of work...
Word around the office is that the
national I work for just sold to SPI? If so, are they good to work for? Should we be scared? The owners are being very evasive even to mgt and rumors are rampant here in the office. With the way they communicate to us, we will get an email from them on Friday at 5 p.m. saying they sold the company and the new owners take over at 5:01 p.m. Should have known this was coming when they only signed a 6 month renewal lease on their new building. Heads up people in Florida, big announcement should be coming soon if this is true.
Don't know mgmt, but in Feb. you needed Word 2003 and Office 2003 to work. nm

Global Transcription IS a nice small service, has a good rep. Superior Global has Indian conn-

Global Transcription Services is not Superior Global.

The platform is Word. Their program works with Word but does not change how Word works. nm
The benefits just changed the first part of this month. I don't have them but I remember them being reasonabl for a single person. Family and spouse was not reasonable in any way (in my opinion).
Just curious, is the MQ Nashville office the old Lanier office? nm

I don't work in the office and never claimed to. I am just saying that since the new office open
October with everyone of the admin staff in one place, these problems do not occur any more.
small to medium company that works in Word or Word-based program - email me. nm

ExText is integrated with Word. Auto correct is a part of Word.
ExText is a Word based platform. When the page opens for you to type the document it will be just like you are typing in MS Word.
anyone work for Oracle - do they use Word or a Word-based program - e-mail me nm

need a clue!

Wanting to know what company is considered one of the "better" places to work for?  I have been offered a few positions, but after looking at the posts here, its kinda scary!  Thanks much!



I don't have a clue.
:)
Does anyone have a clue (those of you that
work for Amphion) why people are cheerleaders for them? They are not that great - the pay is only so-so and the people are not THAT nice. just wondering.
Not a clue....
I have worked for Cymed for a year now. I never received the notice about not receiving a full check. That's all new to me. I have never ever had a problem with payroll, so I have no idea what that whole thing is about. I work out of the Virginia office, so maybe it's different. I have no idea.
you have no clue

If so, have not a clue on this can you
send me an email. I did not want to call a name or a company. I would really appreciate it. Thanks! If this is the 1, I will definitely let you know.
Does anyone have a clue?

Hi all!


I tried searching the archives, but I could not find much.  Anyone have any info on this company based out of Porterville, CA?


 


TIA! 


Well sorry I have no clue about
pay per line cuz I have done this for 10 years being paid per hour so I have no clue honey
Get a clue....
There are no rules here that one must use a moniker...  get over it!  It's offensive to say something is retarded.  Grow up!
Just wanna work in Word - need company that works in WORD! nm

Their program works with Word and does not change how Word functions. sm
You use your own expander. Overall I feel it is user friendly and I like it.
Can't get paid in the office if you don't work in the office.
JLG has MT's working at home, not in the office, not to mention working out of state.  The mail is the only way to get paid since they have temporarily suspended direct deposit.  The only ones getting paid on time are the ones that do work in the office, like the management and people answering the phone. 
Closed FW office, Indianapolis office too. nm

Amen to that - and they don't have a clue. nm

Sorry - I guess I have no clue what
I was working on before, I was told it was DEP, but obviously not.
WHEN are companies going to get a clue sm
MTs are the BACKBONE of ALL MT companies. We literally generate every single dime that goes into a company. IT guys don't generate income. QAs don't generate income. The team leaders don't generate income. The fat cats at the top don't generate income. WE DO AND WE ARE THE ONLY ONES!!!

If companies want to make more money, they should not outsource or offshore. They don't need to go to VR either where the equipment is expensive to buy and maintain and you still have to have an MT to edit that crap. No, what they need to look at it how to maximize their MTs. You ask them up front what they can do, what they want to do and where they see their career going. If the company thinks they can make the most of what the MT wants, then go out and keep finding more accounts to make the MTs happy. They will work to build user friendly platforms that are all Word shells, not wonky excuses for a word processing program. They will offer benefits AND IC contracts. They will get QAs out of there who lack people skills and MT skills. They will encourage Expander training and use so that those who mistakenly think that autocorrect is an expander will have the opportunity to make more money for the same amount of time spent.

In short, they will understand that our work pays everyone's salary, so keep us happy and treat us like the skilled professionals we ARE and not like typists or typing machines.

ewww just gets on my last nerve.
Thank you, thank you for that much appreciated clue.
we're talking about a perfectly dreadful typing congomeration. Am I right?
I'm in CA, Fatcat...No clue where you are
But lunch without sitting at the computer waiting for work to trickle in sounds FABULOUS!!!
You all have no clue what you are talking about - sm
I work for Deb and Aces UP, 2 years plus now. The client does this to save money, they are billed at a lower rate then if we straght type a report, kind of like what many of you do with VR. The doctor brings forward the previous report the patient had (we don't have to pull it, but if we have to go get it because they were too lazy to get it then we are paid it as straight typing and a new report), then they dictate a new Interval History, changes to the ROS, PE, Labs, Assessement and plan. Leaving in everything else previously dictated unless told to remove it which is rare. I can do a 5 minute dictation in 10 minutes, then yes, I get paid for the whole report.....not just what I typed, yes it is a lower rate than had I typed a whole report from scratch, but I only typed a portion of it, maybe 25% if that. So on a good day I can churn out 6 brought forward reports an hour, over 600 lines easy and get paid for all 600. If you have the dicipline to sit and not get distracted it can be very good. Also on the plus side no demographics to enter, report types, etc. It is all done, all you do it pull up report, the voice file loads, copy and paste the previous report into your MSWord, type the report, copy and paste it back into the platform, easy. No BS. 24-hour TAT, no set hours, just do your work in that 24-TAT and everyone is happy. I am quite happy there. I have 7 doctors I work on, no pool work with 300+ different dictator, so thumb your nose at that. Plenty of straight typing as well. I really only have 1 doctor that does the brought forwards, my other 6 are straight typing. Also plenty of work, too much sometimes but I'd rather have feast than famine.
No the hospitals would not have a clue
how could the hospitals know why MTs abandoned their jobs?

Do you have any contact with hospitals now?

Take a more practical and rational approach- beat the MTSOs at their own game. I am NOT anti-MTSO, I am just saying if you really feel abused by these companies - BE THEIR COMPETITION!
Just as there are "oldies" who don't have a clue.
The experienced MTs at my company are the same ones that cherrypick and won't do ESLs (not sure if just lazy or can't do them). They also make a ton of errors on their reports. One of them consistently spells medications wrong, even after warnings from our AM. Some don't bother looking up referring physicians to double check the spelling (again, don't know if laziness or they don't know how to Google). Yet, these MTs make 1 cpl more than I do because of their experience level. I may not be perfect, but I do take pride in my work and produce approximately 2000 lines a day with at least 99% accuracy, even as a newbie. I also do a majority of the ESLs since everyone else just skips over them. I have been told by 3 different account managers that I have a knack for ESLs and understanding accents. I was also pre-med in college and have an extensive background in the medical field, so I am very familiar with terminology, pharmacology, procedures, etc. Yet, I am just a newbie, so I get paid less.

Maybe rates shouldn't be based on the time on the job, but on actual skill level. If you are bringing in more money for the company and are doing harder work types (or more ESLs) than others, maybe you should be paid more than the other MTs who don't make such a contribution. Of course, that is jsut dreaming.
Does the Emdat platform use Word or is it Word-based? nm

I believe the poster's moniker is a clue. ;)

Webmedx?


I have no clue but that MTSO was probably just jerking you around.
I do hiring and there is no such list to my knowledge. I know I know others that do hiring for other companies and we never talk about candidates at all. No names are ever mentioned and there is no such list. Besides, a candidate that might not fit one company might be a good one for another.

This black list is bull.
oh boy.. no clue where the rest of my post is.. sm
maybe I'll have time to rewrte it then... hmmm
No clue. That's the info they gave me. sm


They are in Farmington, NM. Cannot find a web site for them or anything with the BBB. 


their slow response should be a clue as to how they run their business.
I know.

If they use the hospital's system, the choice is not theirs. Get a clue. nm

she used to be the secretary for the chief cheese -- no clue!!! don't do it.

I hope so because I have no clue what this post is talking about!

and also, tech people don't have a clue what they are doing when u ask them a question

All they want to do is come into our computer because they know absolutely NOTHING about what they are doing.  It is dread each and every contact made with the tech people at TT.  Time-consuming training by the MT for the tech people who are salaried and not being paid by the line.  J____ was absolutely EXCELLENT and HELPFUL.  Another sad  situation when he left.  Tech not been the same help since then.


No clue, all I was told is it's a huge new account.
If it's west coast, that's scary, I do west coast accounts now for another company and they're all horrible.  This one I'm supposed to be doing is on Enterprise platform?
I got the chapstick too. I honestly have no clue why they bothered sending anything.
