They most certainly DO outsource offshore. Perhaps you're not as IN THE KNOW as you thought!

The owner of the company I work for says she will never sell but I doubt anyone could
pass up millions if put in front of them. I couldn't, that's for sure. A nice island somewhere with someone to bring me slushy drinks :)
I am a divorced mother. I thought that was a single mother.
and I unfortunately always pay my own way. From the time I was a kid I paid rent in my parent's house, and no man ever gave me anything. Does that count?
I was never a single mother but a divorced mother
Does that count? Oh, forgot, single mothers are the ones who apparently want others to give to them because they are single mothers. When divorced mother, I not only had 1 job but had several and I bought my own home, bought my own cars, took nice vacations to exotic places, paid my bills so your situation probably falling under the category of I cant work outside the home, I have a child. Well, now what? Seems like you don’t have much of a job if no work there. Do you continue to wait or do you try to provide for the child or just sit at home waiting?
Zylomed North Florida, Inc....is this the same as Zylomed?
And does anyone have any current info on them...do they hire IC? Thanks!
It's all about the bottom dollar
Who's going to buy all those cheap products when the peons have no jobs and thus no money. I fear things are going to get a whole lot worse before they get better.
I would bet my bottom dollar you are
under 50! It is really funny because I hear these young starlets talking about how they would never have a face lift. I guess not in your 20-50 age range.
I am making top dollar doing VR
at TTS and I am happy. I use Ex-text and double what I make in lines typing. It all depends on the company and what account you have. Hope this helps.
Ok, well here's the 64 kagillion dollar question
How is their pay, can someone divulge what they're pay is averaging? I'm applying to Transcend and thought I would just ask for curiosity sake.
At this point....I make top dollar at MQ sm
I am part-time and have been working for MQ over 16 years. The day they tell me I have to do ASR, I will quit, but until then I am satisfied with what I make per hour. Look around...there are layoffs everywhere and I am grateful for my job with MQ for now.
"almighty dollar". very well put. and its getting almightier.
And the MILLION dollar question is...
Does Transtech get work from Dictaphone? Does Dictaphone have any control over their workload?
THAT is what this entire thing is supposedly about...
Hmmmm, I guess we'll find out when the court case is complete.
Guess you won, sending bottom dollar
but now with the pay like it is, don’t spend it all in 1 place. I glad you like wrinkles, most women do not but a lot either cannot afford or scared to go through with it. At high school reunions I have attended and have no problem with saying have had, most women totally interested in how much, who did mine, etc. etc. Am very glad to have been able to do mine.
The people with the loyalty to the almighty dollar...

Carlotta can explain why they do the 900 dollar thing.nm

I am a mother and I want my
face lift paid by insurance. That is for my mental well being. Surely the insurance should cover me, right?
Not your mother
We are not your mother...if you can't feed your family it is your responsibility to find a job that will help you support your family, not whine about it. After you got off work at 7 a.m. did you try to find a job or did you just feel sorry for yourself? There are better jobs out there but you have to look for them.
Yes, it is about the almightly dollar. I worked for a hospital who outsourced to Spheris
and the only reason was NOT because they could not find available MTs but it was because it saved them money from having to pay benefits etc..
If there is a way Spheris can make a dollar at the trans expense, they will find it.

Maybe she is a single mother.......
I agree...I would go part time with someone...that's what I plan on doing just to supplement. BTW....anyone who has a problem with that...I have a disabled child,although he does not drink formula....everything else is expensive and most of his treatments not covered by insurance. Maybe this person is in a similar boat..............geez.............I say work as much as you want and make as much as you can doing it......
Usually the week after Mother's Day. Don't know for sure. nm

Are you really mother to 6 children?
nm
As far as I understand it, it's not based on line count really, more a set dollar amount earned
a pay period and I fell short $90 of that set amount. You must make X-amount of dollars to be considered FT status. I missed 2 days of work due to illness. I truly think that is the why it is because their policy says that. I still think you should be notified if your benefits are cut in advance so you can either choose to find another job right away so your not without insurance long or at least can purchase an individual policy. Being without insurance is scary to me with all of our kids.
Oh, good grief, where is your mother? lol
Grow up. Must be terribly frustrating, being so infantile.
I have no more empathy with a single mother
than I would anyone else. I feel if you have children, then you should be able to afford to take care of them. I had a husband, disabled, and I worked and supported everyone so I just think saying oh, single mom, is a pure cop-out. I think entirely overplayed.
My mother used to say oh for heaven sakes....
Even though a company does not offshore does not mean they won't tomorrow, so applying to another company will not solve this dilemma (if you want to call it that). I don't think everyone should quit DRC or whatever the new name is now. I think you all should be just fine! This is not the end of the world. Who knows? This could mean better benefits. I wish you all the best, but I wouldn't jump ship if I were you unless things start to go downhill. If you like the company and know your accounts, why should you? The glass is half full, not half empty, that's what I always try to say!  Stay strong..... 
I can't believe anyone would fall for this. Didn't your mother (sm)
tell you if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is?
They went to that great mother board in the sky.

No, but have a sup who acts like a neurotic mother.
The games that are played by this person are so obvious. Especially the silent treatment. Then comes the drop in income as she punishes us because of some unknown offense.
If you equate the importance of being a mother
with the importance of being an MT, your priorities are really skewed. No use trying to explaining it. It's like the old saying, never try to teach a pig to sing; you'll never succeed and it only annoys the pig.
i agree, isn't it said that a mother can care for
10 children, but 10 children cannot care for 1 mother. And, if one relies on others, one is already deserted.
Incorrect
Most of the QA staff at OSi do not live in the same state as where the office is located.
Where you are incorrect
that half of Medware's staff is in India. Not true, not even close. There are only 2 accounts that are transcribed over there and edited here. It is only done so as not to lose the account, which would mean laying MTs off. Medware is hiring and growing and competing, just like some of the other good companies out there. It is a matter of fact in today's global marketplace.
The above was incorrect. It should have been
Transolutions not Transcend that she was talking about.
Incorrect!
We have been working from home since 1985 and not with the help of the internet. We don't need medical records to be online to work from home.
Incorrect - sm
A simple failure to meet a production quota, or meet some nondesignated deadline for responding to e-mails, does not fall under the blanket term of misconduct. This is especially true if the MT has documentation to show that prior to a platform change, or supervisor change, or other company-mandated change in the ways and means of doing the job, the MT was performing satisfactorily.
Every employer files a standard dispute form against UE claims. They're protecting their interests and the interests of their stockholders. But the MT has to be just as diligent in exercising her rights to request a hearing to state her case.
I think too many MTs just assume they can't get UE, or don't think it's worth the minimal time and effort it takes to file. Most states have completely automated on-line forms now. You don't need to go to an unemployment office or anything to file.
If you were laid off, if you had your hours cut, if you took a significant pay cut, or if you left for any of a variety of just causes, you have every right to file an unemployment claim.
I'm afraid its a plan only a mother could love.
Hasn't your mother taught you any manners?
What is wrong with you to judge? Do you think every MT has to be just like you. Every business has the high achievers and the ones who struggle, possibly to find they have chosen the wrong field, or the wrong company, specialty expander.
Your ladies who toss off your smart a$$ comments at every chance are part of the reason MTs are considered difficult.
If you are like this 24 hours a day, I have a feeling you spend a good deal of time MTing because there is no one else in the house with you. Who'd want to spend time with a person who could cough up a post such as yours? A masochist possibly.
Find yourself a sense of humor and until then, cease posting in representation of medical transcriptions. We have more class than that where I am in this business.
On the old typewriters, my mother could type over 100 WPM with 100% accuracy -
She was always very proud of the fact that she never had to use correction fluid or paper or ribbon or whatever they used back then. She had been typing so long and was such a perfectionist. I am not quite as accurate since I have the computer to do so much correcting for me, but I am still pretty darn fast, and then my daughter won every speed/accuracy keyboard competition the whole time she was in middle school.
It definitely can be done...
This information is incorrect....sm
All of the work will not be edited. There will still be some work to be straight transcribed and the reasons for these have been discussed with the employees. In the speech recognition world there is no system that can draft 100% of the work that I'm aware of.
I'm sorry, you are totally incorrect - sm
There are many more than 2 accounts being done in India AND editors are not reviewing those, reviewers are. (they are different from editors) They get paid very little and have to quickly scan the chart, they are not 100% reviewing them. This is not an assumption. This is the truth.
I'm glad you are happy there.
Incorrect pronunciation.
It's no wonder we get dictators who do not pronounce words correctly. My daughter is getting her degree in nursing. She is taking a pathophysiology class and today the professor asked the class if anyone knew what cashekia (cachexia) was. This woman has been teaching for years.
incorrect job posting
Thank you to everyone who applied for the position that was listed yesterday with First Choice. Unfortunately that job listing was not posted by management at First Choice and we have tried to contact the adminstrator of this board to get to the bottom of it and have it removed but apparently they do not care as it still has not been removed. Thank you again for your time and I am sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.
That is incorrect, this is a disgruntled MT..nm
xx
Incorrect info given.
There is a post on the new MT board regarding myself and my business. I would invite anyone and everyone to read that post...starting out being named 17 files...Please read my reply to this as my company name and personal name have been miscontrued and placed in a bad light that is not even correct. Thank you for your time.
You're incorrect in assuming that....sm
the reports that aren't edited are the "garbage" dictations. I currently edit on an account that has switched to editing and we have dictators that are new to the hospital that aren't on editing yet - and they talk just fine.... and we have 1 dictator who dictates very well but isn't on editing but has been at the hospital for a long time because this dictator has a PA that oftentimes dictates on their ID# and the voice profiles get confused about who is talking when this happens.
I also know people that edit at other companies that say that not all of the reports are on editing for these types of reasons - so to presume that if a dictation isn't being presented in a draft is because it's a lousy dictator is untrue. I've also seen some real bad dictators go through the drafts with excellent draft quality - and fot those types of reports you NEVER hear a Transcriptionist complain "but I didn't have to listen to Dr. XYZ yap at 75 miles per hour - the system did it for me and I got paid anyway!"
Incorrect info in this post...sm
Phoenix pays 9-10 cpl for their own transcription Word-based platform with a Lanier system/Acute care. They pay 8 cpl with spaces on the internet based programs for doctor work. Very different programs, different pay mechanisms, but evens out at the end. Please read the posts and the website carefully. We have NEVER reduced our rates.
I was incorrect. ETC did not mess my friend over.
Her money was wired into her account since the deposit was done nicorrectly. They are very reliable. I'm glad to say that only TRX has messed with my money or that of a good friend. M
To reiterate, you are INCORRECT, not the recruiter. (sm)
Why don't you just email her and read off verbatim what I posted. I would stake my life on it that my post is CORRECT.
So, if you've got the guts to do so, email her and ask if the information I posted is correct. After which, re-post the information your second email/correspondence yieled; that is, if you're the type of person who CAN admit when you are WRONG.
Smile or not, your post was still incorrect
nm
I apologize,..this post is INCORRECT...SM
this was incorrect information and i humbly apologize for any further postings below. you are correct...they are accountants. i ask forgiveness for anyone i have offended. i was offered a job by them and i could have sworn they said they were lawyers, not accountants. went back thru my stuff and you were were correct. i ask forgiveness of those that read here and i will be more cautious in my posts in the future, if i ever dare again.
I'll bet you'd be in a snit if you didn't get a Mother's Day card, though, amirite?
Same principle...
Would you feel slighted if your children didn't give you a mother's day card? How about a birthday card? Anniversary card? I mean, after all, you shouldn't NEED a mother's day card to feel appreciated, right?
I mean, if you're going to cast your self-righteous stones at those of us who DO appreciate being acknowledged ONCE A YEAR, then please remember this the next time someone fails to acknowledge YOU on YOUR *special day*.
I'm so tired of you judgmental people who can't just NOT post but instead squeal with delight at putting others down. Must suck to be you....
