Would this happened to be for an orthopedic transcription company? sm

This sounded very, very familiar to what happened to me just a little while back. They asked for SS# and address. But never did send me the information I requested. I sent an email back to them declining the position because I had to purchase equipment and then something kept telling me that this place was not what it was supposed to be...Just curious as if this is the same place...
Sorry that you had gotten your hopes up. MT is a good field but the hardest part is finding a DEPENDABLE employer....Very hard. I have been in this business for over 14 years. I started when I was 18. So, I know how frustrated you are, but don't give up. There are a FEW good ones left. Good luck.

A major overhaul has happened at Davis Transcription
Terri Davis is no longer there. The business is now run by the remaining two other partners. The pay is on time every two weeks as long as you have your invoices in on time. The work is there and the QA manager is fantasitic to work with.
Happened to me. The company who
replaced us had the same objectives - use current people as the incentive so the quality of work would remain the same, but the pay was about 60% of what we made. The first day I worked, the company kept calling me to see what a few of the dictators were saying because they could not understand it. I quit the next day, told them I was not paid enough to teach their staff to take over my job.
A month later they fired the company and brought us back to work.
Every company is different. What happened
somewhere else would not be relevant to your situation. Some cmopanies lay off, some give you other accounts. It just depends on the MTSO and how busy they are.
Happened at my company a while ago; server down and they
I have a sneaky feeling happens more than they like to admit. I am truly sorry for TTers. This business is going down the commode.
I know that they do have a really big orthopedic hospital as
a client. I really enjoy working there. The pay in not the highest I have ever heard of, but it is above average. The people are absolutely terrific to work with. I think they do hire part timers. Definitely worth checking out.
Same thing happened to me. Distrustful Company

I worked in an orthopedic office
not that long ago that used Dictaphone and our servers would go down quite a bit. It seemed like at least once a week. So I think it's a Dictaphone problem. As far as the work load, I'm getting pretty disgusted. This is going on at least 3-4 weeks of low to no work. My first thought would be an overhire, but they are still hiring for new accounts - why don't they give some of those new accounts to the MTs that already work there who are out of work. Doesn't make sense to me. I've asked for backup accounts, and keep getting the answer that the work is low everywhere. Starting to worry.
FYI - the orthopedic account is mostly letters
Just an FYI -
Haysee, What happened to the account? Did the company lose it
or did they go back to bringing it all in house to the hospita?
Anyone know of companies that hire orthopedic transcriptionists..
I liked to find a company that has a great ortho account and needs help whether it be FT or PT, IC or employee, but it seems hard to find anyone that has any good ortho accounts.
Anyone else apply at ATS for an orthopedic MT position and get this bizarre,
obviously form letter that you did not have enough experience, even though you have over 15 years of MT experience, with over 10 of that doing orthopedics. I think it is pretty lame to send out an inappropriate form letter that is way off the mark. Tell me you've filled the position or just not interested but do NOT bother telling me that I do not have enough experience. Of course, I had to ask them, Just how much experience were you looking for, 10 years is not enough? Sometimes, this business scares me. I was just curious as to whether anyone else got this bizarre form letter when they applied.
Companies that have good orthopedic accounts.
If anyone knows of those companies which offer ortho, could you please email me privately if you don't want to post on the forum. Thanks.
My account has been slow this week due to an orthopedic conference...
but not completely out of work...ask your supervisor if you can have a backup account...there is plenty of work to be done..
I use Stedman's Orthopedic and Rehab Words book..
and Google is also a good research tool :)
how do we work it? Easy answer - work for another company. That happened with the company
I was working for. I would wake up at 4 a.m. AND ON THE WEEKENDS TOO because they needed "coverage" supposedly and I would sit until 9:30 or noon without any work. Sorry, but my rent of $1450/month could not be paid with only $57/day. So I got another job and when I got the equipment and everything, then I quit for the other employer.
US Transcription company
Has any one heard anything about US Transcription. Or is there a good company out there to work for. I am sick of Spheris.
They are also a transcription company too....

Does anybody know of a transcription service that was hiring FT MTs to work at home? They are located in Ohio. I remember seeing it, but I cannot remember the name.
Transcription Company
Maybe Cymed, they have an office in Ohio.
Any p.r.n. Transcription MTs here? (the company name is p.r.n.)

Transcription Company
Hello all, by chance has anyone there heard of Brown and Myers transcripion services? I really need some feedback. Thanks.
I don't think this is a transcription company.
Found the website www.yoursafeandhappyhome.com. Then if you Google the lady who runs this site, you will see she is targeting SAHMs with all kinds of different WAH jobs. Tons of red flags on this one for me.
Does anyone know of a transcription company
that you can do training through and also work for?
TNI Transcription Company

OSi Transcription Company
Just curious if anyone can tell me if it is hard or not to get your line count in for OSi. I'm currently in the process of taking the tests for the job. I am working for MQ right now and it's horrible with getting your line count. I make it, but I have to work my butt off to get it. I was forced into MQ and now am trying to find something better. Any information would be much appreciated. Also, what's their pay like? Thanks a bunch!
T-C Transcription Company
When I talked to the recruiter she said they paid for spaces. I worked for a company that did not pay for spaces now and I am not going to go that route again I do not think. I think the pay for on the low side too for my years of exp. She told me FT and PT get paid the same and only the third shift makes more. Insurance was not bad and it compatible with what I am paying now. The only thing that was told to me was 500 lines for PT. I think I will ask more questions before I fill out paperwork. Thanks for input
Actually, I did run my own transcription company (sm)
I had 4 girls working for me, plus I did the transcription, payroll, getting the tapes and delivering them to the girls and delivering the transcription - yes I did not have digital.
The girls got what I got right across the board. I never, ever took a cut from them. I incurred my own expenses of gas, phone. That was it. I worked out of my home and did it.
As an IC, you have the right to charge what you think the job is worth. Do you shop around for a better price when having repairs done in your home? Do you automatically take the cheapest one? Or do you take the one that costs more, but has the experience and the know how to get the job done and get it done correctly?
That is my point. The MTSOs say they cannot pay above a certain amount when in fact I would bet that they can. Think about it. Not in a stressed out kind of way, but just think about it.
Company info on OSI Transcription
Has anyone ever worked for OSI Transcription? If so, are they decent? I just did the online transcription test and am awaiting their answer. I would hate to give up my local jobs for this one and find out they are not a decent company.
Thanks,

Company info on OSI Transcription
I've only been with them a few weeks, but so far, its been okay. Have had some minor issues regarding equipment and work, but these were resolved to my satisfaction by my manager. First pay was on time without any problems. If things continue as they are, I will probably be with them for a long while.
What can anyone tell me about eMTS transcription company. Thanks much.

MTC - medical transcription company.
 Can anyone tell me anything about this company, particularly what you think of their line rates.
transcription and typing company
Questions to ask the company your work for: How often are the lights turned off? How often does your phone get shut off? How often do you lose internet service for nonpayment? How may checks -payroll or otherwise did you bounce this month, this year? How many IRA accounts did you take money from? How is your inhouse turn around for employees? How many excuses can you come up with for my late payroll? You want a schedule of my availability, but do you offer work to keep me busy during the time you insist I be available? How many times have you paid your full time employees late? How many times have you asked your fulltime employees to invest $17,500 into your company while bouncing checks? How much did you spend on a christmas party without bonuses paid to your employees and even paying them AFTER the holidays late?
You would be surprised what one company's answer would be. Home base = PA. Beware people. What is good today is not always good tomorrow. Am I bitter, no. My dream job as an inhouse employee was shattered when my eyes were open. And I left on my own because of it.
Northeast Transcription Company

Not Sure Which Transcription Company to Supplement With
I'm really in a quandry! I've been an IC but also handle overflow and get some work from another local transcription company. Right now, it's just not enough, and I'm not sure if more is coming! I've been doing this for almost 20 years. I still can't tell from the posts which is the best national company to supplement with. It seems that if there are negative posts about a company, they get wiped off the boards! Can you give me your opinions?

In reply to your question regarding Integrity. It has to one of the greatest companies out there. The owners are wonderful, honest and ahead of the rest.
