Yes, outsource as in offshoring. Why else would she be in the way of "their goal"? sm

You would think if she is as good as everyone says, she would be helping towards their goal. So it sounds to me like she is against them achieving whatever their goal is and she was in the way of it.

    I'm not even aware they offer "their" computer. Everyone I know uses our own, always have.

    Do not outsource to India, outsource a small amount to Phillipines.

    It would appear that their goal is to take

    over that position.  Even MQ has their loyal followers. Not to equate them with terrorists, but they have quite a following as well. 


    People aren't upset because there is a change but what they are changing to. 


    We're all going down the toilet.


    $1000 weekly gives me a goal to aim for
    I look forward to reaching that goal!
    Stated Goal: Eliminate MTs this decade

    Most are already aware (it is pretty obvious), but because some still refuse to open their eyes, I am posting the below from the Nuance website.  It is actually a timeline of the Dictaphone Corporation's history, which is pretty interesting and goes back to Alexander Graham Bell.


    Still, I find it noteworthy that they state in no uncertain terms that they want to "eliminate most manual transcription for healthcare in North America this decade."


    "A major development took place in February 2006 when Burlington-Massachusetts-based Nuance Communications announced that it would acquire Dictaphone in a cash deal worth $357 million. In a news release Nuance Chairman and CEO Paul Ricci commented on the acquisition, which was completed by the end of March, stating: 'The combined resources, experience and talents of Nuance and Dictaphone will help accelerate the adoption of speech recognition to eliminate most manual transcription for healthcare in North America this decade, delivering over $5 billion in savings to care facilities and transcription service organizations.'


    Under new parentage, Dictaphone was named a division of Nuance--the Dictaphone Healthcare Solutions division--and Schwager was named its president.


    I did not post the comment, but what is your goal with your weird comments.sm
    that nobody understands and have a rather belligerent undertone?

    What are *handles?**

    What do you want???
    I've never heard of a goal higher than 100 reports for radiology.
    And there are plenty of days when a poor, unorganized dictator will hold you back to more like 60 reports! Especially if you try to catch all the order errors with right/left, whether contrast was used, etc.
    I'm sorry; I doubt you can reach that 2000 goal or anything close in 40 hours.

    JLG outsource???
    Anyone know if JLG outsources? I asked their HR person and so far have received no response. Very suspicious about that.
    JLG Outsource???
    They have advertised on boards using their "Vianeta or Arrendale" software. If you search Google for Arrendale software, you will see that Arrendale and CBAY formed a partnership.... Check past posts on CBAY. What do you think?

    MDI does not outsource but they do
    overhire. Not a bad company overall, just have to fight for work a lot of the time.
    Outsource

    Do they outsource now? If not, they're planning it, big time. Companies need excuses to outsource, main one being they can't meet demand. Yeah, drop that line req down, that'll do it! Care to divulge company name?


    they outsource and their pay is low nm

    MDI does not outsource but they were bought by Transcend who has been sending work to Florida. Just an FYI.
    Not an outsource
    No everyone there worked from home.  They also used Transcend for overflows.  It was a good place to work, but dayshift was years away.

    I am 99.9% sure they do not outsource. nm

    Boy do they outsource
    The offshores get preference for the work.  Some of the managers are just awful, especially one in particular.   I mean downright nasty and not even available for questions. Big shakeups lately.
    if they did HAVE to outsource all, tho,
    or even a ton, it would be a QA nightmare and clients would finally have to ask - WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH YOU PEOPLE?

    sweeeet
    They do more than outsource, as they have

    an office in India. 


    No, they do not outsource.

    no no NO! TT does NOT outsource sm

    There is, however, an Indian company with a similar name that IS doing business in India.


    I know it gets slammed on here for doing all kinds of things and I have never heard a word of truth about Transtech spoken here.


    I did not say that they don't outsource
    I said that not all of the team leads are in India.
    Yes, Medware does outsource....sm
    and they make no bones about it. However, they are not the only company to do so and more and more companies will likely be doing the same in the future. Like it or not, this is the future of medical transcription...to get the transcription done offshore and then have it edited by more qualified egocentric jerks like myself in the USA.

    I think you have overstepped the boundaries of common decency in categorizing people who work for Medware or any other company who chooses to outsource their work. If you don't like it, you don't have to work there and don't have to associate with us, but it is a low blow to attack fellow members of your profession in such an unprofessional manner.
    MDI does NOT outsource.. all work is done
    on-shore. Transcend does outsource though (minimal).
    Does Transolutions outsource?

    They outsource heavily and
    make no bones about it.  They are located in suburban Nashville, TN and generally make no bones about their ties with Indian transcriptionists.
    Most of the companies out there outsource now.

    Do you consider Canadians being outsourcing? With all the Americans out of work does it bother you that companies hire Canadians?
    SPI information? Do they outsource?
    Any info appreciated.
    They don't outsource VA accts because they can't (sm)
    Contracts with the fedgov won't allow it. Funny how the gov't won't allow VA files to be sent overseas, but they don't bother putting a stop to the rest of ours going huh?
    They outsource to India and..
    when the recruiter was asked, she said she didn't know that for sure even though it is posted on their website.  When this was pointed out, I still couldn't get her to admit it.  I turned them down because I prefer straight answers and dont' work for companies who outsource to India.
    They outsource on VR accounts. NM

    yes, they still OFFSHORE (not outsource), otherwise

    Wow, that's impressive. Do they outsource?
    Now I am very intrigued! I did e-mail them and asked a few basic questions. Do you have any idea what their pay scale is? I have almost 7 years of experience as an MT.
    Yes, they do outsource to Spheris
    When ATSIS offered me a position back in early November, the account I was going to work on was with Spheris and the company was fixing to leave Spheris. It was a BIG mess. Maybe it's a blessing I did not end up working with this company. The recruiting manager is so darn RUDE. I would never want to communicate with her again. I would not trust her if she gave me the biggest offer to come back. That company is so darn SCREWED UP! I can see why the keep advertising over and over again constantly. They are probably screwing every MT like they did me! I sure hope every MT that is reading this post does not even consider appling with ATSI out of Clearwater, Florida because they will be sorry!!!

    Have a great holiday. You deserve so much better out there than this CRAZY company.

    I know they outsource to India sm

    Whatever is not done by a certain point at night the send to India so that it is ready to edit in the morning.  I am surprised they are allowed to advertise for MTs on this site, but they DO outsource and I have this from the current recruiter.  They pay their American MTs pretty well, but on the backs of the outsourced stuff from what I can tell. 


    For the record, I had an offer at the end of last year, didn't take it because it is outsourced.  As long as we support this sort of thing it will continue.  The minute we all refuse to work for a place like that, the sooner it all comes home.

    The outsource ax has fallen!
    I just got terminated from my in-hospital job.  I had worked for these people for almost 20 years but I guess it was ineviable.  They are going to outsource to some place I think in the Phillipines.  I have done some part time work at home but now I'm looking for a full time at home with benefits. Gulp!  Anybody have any suggestions?  I was thinking about Diskriter or Sten-Tel.  I am best at clinic work but I have done acute care for a couple of years.  I hate ESL but they are a part of life, unfortunately.   . 
    Does DeVenture outsource?

    Does DeVenture Outsource?
    I don't believe they outsource outside of the U.S.  However, someone else on this board might have more information.
    So are you saying they don't outsource to India?
    How long have you worked for them?
