No, you are thinking of Transcription Solutions

You're not thinking about... (sm)
They may very well be requested to sign no-compete contracts. That is, do not get into the MTSO business for X number of years, do not contact existing clients, etc. :-((
there is no MDI-IT, you're thinking of MD-IT (nm)

If you're thinking of QA, don't be
are times you'll be working around the clock on backlog and expected to jump in at the drop of a hat.
Yes, you're right. Thinking of QA.
Haven't done that either. I'll be screwed if ever I have to do something other than straight transcription.

TransTech Medical Solutions
 What do we know about Transtech Medical Solutions? I tried a search and found nothing. They don't just use ICs, do they? You can get employee status? Pay range? Ease of use of platform? Anything? Will my GearPlayer work? ShortHand compatible?
TransTech Medical Solutions does. (nm)

Like I said, they are a great company to work for, really starting to grow. I have been with them for almost a year. You set your schedule, though they do have a minimum # of hours. They have been flexible with me in that when something comes up, and I need to do something, I can usually ask ahead of time and there's no problem taking the time off. Good luck!
TransTech Medical Solutions is (sm)
the one always being talked about on the board. Never heard of the other one.

Would anyone that works for Transtech be willing to share some information with me? I am thinking of switching to TT but would like to know if all their work is on a VR platform or do they do any regular transcription? And also, what kind of line rates do they pay for either one? I need a steady paying job with a good income and lots of work, as I am a single parent with a child starting to college in the fall. The company I currently work for does not have enough work for me to make a decent income even though I am working full-time. Any information about TransTech would be greatly appreciate before I consider making this move. Thanks!

Was thinking about applying at Transtech.
Could anyone give me info on if they have orthopedic accounts or what kind of accounts they do have, pay info and how they are to work for. Also do they hire part time employees.
Never pay issues with Transtech. You are thinking of TTS.

Thinking about applying at TransTech, anyone
know what the starting pay is roughly?
If you're thinking of quitting
I rarely ever post but I just wanted to let people know what happened to me so they can avoid the same experience I had. i'm not gonna mention the name of the company here,but anyone who works for this company knows the problems they've had with their payroll and getting their direct deposits on time.. and how the owner is uncaring about how many bounce fees she causes everyone to have to pay, or how people can't pay their bills when their DD doesnt show up until Monday. She just turns off her IMs and doesnt answer emails. Really great person to work for.. Well.. aside from those problems, i just wanted to warn people that when you do decide to finally leave the company, just be sure she doesnt owe you anything before you leave. Do a slow down, so that she owes you as little as possible by the time you quit, unless you don't have any equipment, like a foot pedal or anything, that she sent you that she can use to justify holding your final check(s). She has done this to a few people I know of..and I'm sure there's lots more I don't know. I can't say if she pays right away if you don't have equipment,.she probably does ...but I know what happens if you do!!
I had a foot pedal that belonged to her, and she held my final TWO CHECKS on me. She owed me one full check and for two or three days into a new pay period and held them both. When my next to last check didn't show up as expected and I called to ask her about it, she said its "company policy" to roll all money owed into one final check. She happened to be on vacation, so I returned the equipment,but still had to wait from the 4th of April until the 26th when she returned from vacation.. I waited and still didn't receive any money from her, so I emailed her multiple times with no response.. Then i happened to check my bank balance and found out she had deposited the check for the 2-3 days in my account..but the full check she owed me wasn't there. I had expected a paper check from her, so I didnt check my balance for a while..I just happened to check it. When i emailed her about the money, she didnt even bother to answer me to say she had deposited it, so its a good thing I checked or I'd still be waiting. I finally called her. since she refuses to answer emails, and she said she would look into what happened with the other check first thing Monday morning...This was last Friday.. today I FINALLY got my money from her. only more than a full month and 266.00 in bounce fees later!! So, the good news is she will probably pay you..eventually...but who wants to wait over a month with no check? I know I had extenuating circumstances because she happened to go on vacation, but she also did payroll early, and there was no way I could have gotten the pedal back to her before she did payroll. She knew she was going to hold both checks and didn't bother to tell me that when I emailed her to tell her I had mailed the pedal back and would be expecting my check as usual on April 14th.. so I got a nice little shock when my DD just didnt show up on the 14th. Maybe others get their money a little sooner, but still ..who wants to wait for their checks for that long. Well anyway, I decided to let people know what happened to me, just so they can avoid it happening to them.
You're thinking of Paradigm.
I worked there too. Yes, they were both very nice. They paid me a really good cpl and I loved my account. When I moved I had to give back my C-phone. I have seen them advertise here in the last 6 months or go.

Wonder if who I'm thinking of is who you're talking about? That would explain a LOT. sm
This person gets away with so much, I don't know she's kept her job this long. Getting a timely response from her on even the smallest issue is impossible, and she always has an excuse for why she couldn't __________. And, she seems to lose her internet connection more than anybody I know, and it's always conveniently for a 3-day weekend. Or she'll take 9 days off to go to a 4-day convention. Or she'll take a long weekend and then conveniently be sick on her return day. I've never seen so many excuses. She gets away with it, though. It's not like she's even a good manager on the days she is around; she doesn't know anything about site profiles or have any client contacts. About all she does is forward emails from other managers who have taken the time to actually do their jobs.
Does any of this sound like your triple dipper?
Any recent info on TransTech Medical Solutions of Houston TX.....sm
I just received an offer to test, wonder if it is worth it; I have a few offers, but nothing I am truly convinced about....how is this company to work for, and do they accept PT folk, don't care if it is IC, SE, or regular employee......and I, too, need flexibility, as long as I get my lines in and always make turnaround time. Long time ago, there were many, many companies that operated that way; now, it seems, everyone is very rigid -- so am I, but I have to make things work with family situation, I am not only caring for 3 kids, but also 89-year-old mom part-time. Thanx all in advance!
see post below "if you're thinking of quitting"
that's the one.
you're right, about SE taxes; wasn't thinking about IC status with that.

How can you KNOW what you're doing without THINKING you know what you're doing?

Think they're Integrated Document Solutions. Someone asked about them last month. nm

You're at Transtech now, eh?
No nothing with fellow employees.
At first I was thinking that you were being unrealistic, not thinking about taxes, benefits, etc. bu
surprised to find that you are not asking the moon. Let me clarify a few things: Rates charged are not as high as 0.25 per line, but no one that has U.S. employees goes as low as 0.115 or they would not be able to pay their bills. A more realistic range is 0.125-0.165, and that top end is hard to find, most falling at 0.14-0.15 per line.
The rates of pay you propose are very reasonable IF the following is true: These are seasoned MTs who do not need a lot of hand-holding, QA or blanks filled in, unless a very difficult/impossible doctor.
How about a scale based on experience and accuracy of 0.09 - 0.105 per line (acute care), and $1.15-$1.30 per report (radiology)?
The VR one is tough as everyone, MTs and MTSOs and facilities are still feeling their way on this. As an MTSO who was an MT, I feel that VR editing is as difficult to do as regular transcription. I don't think that it should be substantially less pay or charged less as the end product is still the same.
Funny thing here? My company already follows that scale. We should work together, not at odds, to reinforce this industry and bring it back to where it should be, right here in the U.S.A. with a decent paycheck.

Hope you're enjoying those slave wages you're earning.

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.
Not the OP, but they're supposed to take out all the other taxes as you're an employee with th
s
No, they're not losing money....they're gaining!
If a company charges their clients by the line, I'm sure that line rate does not go down even though the MTs pay does.
ASR pays about 2/3 normal line rate to its MTs. Their ultimate goal is to have the MTs do twice as much work. Therefore, the client is getting their work faster, but paying their normal rate, while corporate gets that money and the MTs get the lower line rate.
Whether the newbies want to realize it or not, MTSOs have not increased MTs' salaries in the past 10 years. They still start out at the same pay as the last century!
This used to be a very lucrative profession. Nowadays, most MTs are considered to be paid at the poverty level. You don't believe me, look it up!
No. TransTech is out of Texas TTS is in New Hampshire. TransTech

Well I don't work for Transtech and this discussion isn't about Transtech...

If you're an IC, you pay all your taxes. Otherwise you're an SE or employee. nm

If you're PT you're required to work
8 of your hours in one weekend day. There's no extra pay for it though.

I am interested in their Pediatric account. I recently took their test and awaiting a response. Any info would be great!
That's exactly what I was thinking
 I didn't see anything about 10 cpl for ESL accounts. Thought I was losing it.
Could you tell me why you think this. I was also thinking of looking into them.

What I was thinking!

Exactly what I was thinking.

I am thinking that..........
I am thinking this is a former disgruntled employee who acts like they are still employed. According to other posts in the past it seems some on here post info as such. Possibly they are trying to stir something up. Search it out on your own to find out fiction or fact and make own judgement.
i was thinking...
if it was a total of 150 reports and they paid the $3 for only the first page of those 150 and the $1.50 the other 149 pages, that would still equal almost $230/day. Did I do that math right?! Sounds good to me!
that's what I was thinking

Thanks.....that is what I was thinking too.
This is for a hospital
