so pick up your own accounts, get 5 sm
people and see how well you do. The headache of listening to whining, complaining MTs is not worth it! Granted there are MTSOs making tons of money and yes some are scr****g their employees/ICs. But, if you think running a business and putting up with all of it is a piece of cake, you are sadly mistaken!
How do people cherry pick on accounts? You mean like supervisors assigning jobs?
I did not know you could do that, but is that what you mean? I need to know because I will not work for that.
Why do supervisors who insist they are not paid to transcribe cherry pick accounts to death?
They could really show some leadership ability if they took the bad dictators and left a few easy reports for those of us who would appreciate an easy report once in a while.
are your accounts acute or clinic?
nm
Wmx has acute, clinic, radiology and ER accounts. nm
.
Does MDI-MD have clinic accounts or only acute care? nm
nm
specify, clinic/acute, IC/employee, national/own accounts,
nm
I work on acute care accounts, so I can't speak for the radiology side. (SM)
The work does look like it's beginning to pick up though for acute care.
if you had to pick one; medscribe or CyMed .. who and why would you pick em? considering both

I am using Merit.
I also think they have a Dictaphone.
MERIT
I found it to be a very user friendly platform to use.
Actually, I was on the Merit side.
Now I work for a company using Dictaphone, and I'm happy.
Only some of MW uses that. The ER work is all done on MeriT, which is their own. nm

Not all MW ER work is on MeriT - sm
I work on a primarily ER account and we are on the Dictaphone platform. I really love working for Medware.
I use Merit on the ER team

Merit Program
Compared to EXText? No comparison, way worse.
Love Merit
I love the Merit platform, but it's pretty much the only one I've known other than Medware's older one where you had to dial in. Merit is probably the only reason I stay with the company since I don't want to learn a new platform and I'm afraid it will be tedious. They do not have enough work right now though on the ER side, but maybe acute care and Dictaphone does.
MeriT versus ExText
I just started with Medware a little over a month ago as an Editor and work on the MeriT System. I worked on ExText before joining Medware and I like MeriT better. ExText is a great program, but I think MeriT is more MT friendly.
Medware Merit platform ~ anyone use
Hoping someone could let me know how well the 2 work together. Is the Merit platform easy to use ~ how does it compare to Extext? Thanks a bunch for any info!!!
Merit side of Medware....
Can anyone give me their opinion on how easy it is to get lines, etc. on the Merit side of Medware? I am currently on the dictaphone side, but have such problems with the software locking up that before I leave the company completely was wondering how the Merit side was. Thanks. 
merit versus dictaphone
merit sucks compared to extext
Merit of DeVenture's Reply
I have to give DeVenture credit for making their reply sound so credible. However, my understanding is that this case was not about one of your MTs at home. This case is about one of your administrative staff members NOT one of your typists, so this does not compare whatsoever. Nice try though.
Any information on Merit Tech
in AZ?
Thanks
Amen! I am a reviewer on the Merit side and could not
I have experienced nothing bad. Recruiter was honest and great to work with. Training was great and my Team Lead is the best!! Very happy with everything at Medware. I left a horrible company (OSi)!!!
I can see why they were voted Employer of the Year. They rock!!!!
Medware's Merit works with satellite
I have high speed satellite (DirecWay) and work for Medware.
Medware has 2 platforms, Merit and EXText
They use 2 platforms, their own called Merit and Dictaphone's EXText. Depends on what work type and account you ask for, different teams for each one. Hope that helps, I have been with Medware about 6 months and use EXText, it's awesome. I am on a clinic account.
I should say that this is for ER work, employee, Merit system. nm

How is MW's MeriT program as far as productivity goes? just curious
MW also uses their own software, Merit, which is very easy and organized. nm

Anyone use the Merit platform with MW? Good, bad, average? nm

I have worked on both sides, Merit and dictaphone.
I think the Dictaphone is better but the account I had you could not view old reports. You could open up another text client and view them that way, but opening up 2 word documents of any kind messed things up and I had to get out of everything and start over.
As far as the dictators, I had an easy-dictator account with both Merit and Dictaphone and yes, there was more than enough work to do on the Dictaphone side but the Merit account ran out quite a bit. I had encountered 3 different team leads during my stay tere and all were as nice as they could be.
Also $2000. mo.
I'm right there with ya, pass the Kleenex. Over 10 years' experience, work to exhaustion, and bring home $2000. a month.
Years ago it was easy to build up normals, especially for Op reports, and get a decent lph rate. Now, shortcuts are unheard of -- my accounts are teaching hospitals so there are new residents every semester and it's like starting a new account every few weeks.
The old accounts with normals and easy dictators have gone by the wayside in my world -- apparently some of the high-earning posters here must have found them.
Anybody running Smartype with the Medware MeriT program? (nm)
Word based expanders work with Merit
Hope that helps
You too? I was always a 1800-2000 SM
line producer daily until I worked for them. 1200 and it was taking me 9-10 hours to get those 1200 lines. Something is wrong with their line counting.
If you read their ads, you see that they are XP and 2000 only. sm
I spoke to KS a few weeks ago and was told that they do not accept satellite or VISTA. I have both :(
I think In Shock should concentrate on fixing the situation or moving on rather than continuing on and on here. The people she is angry with probably don't bother with these boards. They have other fish to fry. I know that I read these posts for entertainment when bored, but if I want real information, I go to the source.
Give it up and move on or figure out a way to work with them. If they do read these, I am sure they can figure out who you are and would not even want you at this point if you are just going to keep harping on it.
There are other companies out there that might use VISTA, but I have not seen many.
Have you tried talking to the person who you say told you this? On reading your post, I could not tell.
I usually get 1800 to 2000
.
2000 lines/day
How long does it take you? That's amazing!! By the time I get my 1000 lines done, I'm ready to quit for the day!
7.5/ln if do 2000 lines a DAY, OH PLZ
20,000 per pay period
10,000 per week
2000 X5 days = 2000 per day
for a whole 7.5 cents a line. They otta be emailed by all MTs and say HAIL NO, unless and until you agree to work for $1.50 an hour yourself. If nobody speaks up, wellllll
Usually averaged over 2000 per day, but
why do you ask?
Merit is what is screwed up. As usual. New managers couldn't care less.
nm
Medware Merit or Voice Recognition platform..help me decide please.
t.y.
Who wants 2000 lines a day? That's outrageous! nm
m
How long does it take you to do 2000 lines nm
nm
I used to get 2000+ daily with one hospital
oh my god that work rocked! It was 95% normals and work was plentiful. Imagine, ortho reports that were 2 pages long and all you had to do was type in your little Expander shortcut and poof there was the whole report whenever the dictator said Please use my _____ report. Ka-ching!
Ahhhh...the salad days. I remember them with such a sad fondness...it was the kind of thing that was just so good you just knew it wouldn't last.
Now I'm all bummed again. Where did I put that cheesecake....
at 80+ reports, you are doing about 2000 lines
nm
But are your 2000 lines per day ACCURATE?
If you expect to work at TT and shoot off 2000 lines per day that have a lot of errors you have just moved to the wrong company. You will be admonished about that. And you should be. Flying fingers don't cut it at TT unless the work is accurate. If you have a lot of Expanders and produce a lot of quality work you will be an asset. I have never made 2000 lines a day at TT but my work is accurate and they are a great company.
Do you think that 1500 to 2000 a week is possible?
This is a serious question, because I have been there a while and still not up to that. Maybe 1450 but not the big numbers. Wondering if it takes a while or if it is the platform.
Not bad at all. Consistently hitting 2000 plus
lines a day. Just gotta get used to the Audit SW. It's not the greatest but it's not the worse.
Okay what is great money? $2000-3000 a PP
TIA
2000 lines per day, what kind of work are you doing? nm
