    Can anyone give me current information on Zylomed? I did some research but all that I could find was from 2004. I am looking for any type of information on this company. For that matter ... can any Transcriptionist out there recommend a REALLY good company? Do these exist any longer? I have been transcribing for 23 years for a multi-specialty clinic and our department was recently phased out. I have also worked part-time for a hospital and 2 services. I see these postings on here for companies and once I do my research on a company no one ever really has anything nice to say about ANY of them so I'm going crazy here.

Up to date info on Zylomed? People change and companies do to...(sm)
I need current information from MT's that do or have worked for Zylomed (Naples, FL) in the last year. If you've had a bad experience with them 2 or 3 years ago, don't bother writing. People change and companies do too! I need the real skinny on what's happening now. I would really appreciate hearing from current employees! Thanks so much!
Zylomed North Florida, Inc....is this the same as Zylomed?
And does anyone have any current info on them...do they hire IC? Thanks!
Zylomed
Any info on Zylomed in Naples Fl (not the North Fla one). Was offered a job there. Got mixed reviews in the archives but not sure which one was being reviewed. You can email me directly. Thanx.
Zylomed
Any info on this company, good or bad? I am considering a position with them. Thanks.
ZyloMed
Thanks for responding. How would this affect my working for them (sending offshore)?
ZyloMed
Thanks. I have decided against them now for more than one reason. I think they were a little too anxious to hire; they seemed desperate almost.
Zylomed
Get your facts straight before you post! Zylomed does not offshore now and only did as the previoiusly poster said one small account and then the Indians could not even do it, so they gave up the account.
Zylomed is an EXCELLENT company to work for. They have nice managers, and the owner Susan Sumner is by far one of the nicest women I have ever worked for in this industry. They are a good company, they pay on time, and always have work, and when they do not the Lead MT who is over everyone makes sure that there is work to go round. I speak from experience, as I worked for them part time, for about a year, and found them to be honest, upfront, and nice people. They have lots of radiology. I was sorry that I ever left, but had a family illness.
zylomed
I just started working for them and everyone is nice,helpful and polite and pay was on time. I would go for it.
Zylomed
Anybody know if Zylomed hires employees or just IC, and if employees do they provide health insurance? Thanks! TC
ZyloMed
Any info on ZyloMed? TIA
zylomed
I have been working for them for about 3 months. It is a good company. Pay is twice a month and automatically deposited and on time. Good QA, system easy to learn. People are nice. If there is anything else you need to know let me know.
Zylomed
Any current info available? Do they offer health insurance. TIA.
Zylomed
Great company. Very happy there. I only do radiology so cannot speak for other accounts.
Zylomed
Does anyone know about the Zylomed Transcription Service in Florida, are they a good company to work for, any information would help. Thanks - Alice
zylomed
I need some feedback/info on zylomed, are they any good?
Zylomed
I am in need of information on Zylomed out of Florida - good, bad or indifferent.
Zylomed
Never see much about Zylomed. Does anyone know anything about them?
Thanks in advance.
Zylomed
Zylomed sent me their foot pedal and I have been on the phone for training - always with a problem that arises. I have literally sat in front of my computer screen for 3 hours this afternoon waiting to hear from an IT person so that I can get on with my training. Has anyone else had this experience? Anyone know anything about this company. I passed their test - which is why I got a call in the first place. I was told that they had no idea when someone would contact me - maybe again on Monday - yikes!!!!! Should I run now or later?
Zylomed
?
Zylomed
I will be doing an orthopedic and neurology account. The IT person called me this morning and when I finish my work for the other company I am working for he is going to help me - I have experienced some sort of problem with every company that I have worked for - in fact, when I lived in SC and worked for the local hospital there - it took me almost a month to get set up and going.
Zylomed
I have received two e-msils from Jim. He wants to call tomorrow, but now I am having second thoughts. He contacted me about rad work. It pays quite well, should I be worried? Has anyone done rad work for them? Please let me know so I know whether to take his call or not tomorrow.

I too had an unfortunate experience with them. I was very happy working for them for one year. Had two ESL's that I found easy to do eventually. The docs were very pleased with my work.
Then, I relocated and took some time off. When I came back, was told there wasn't enough work for me and was terminated that day. NO NOTICE, nothing. In addition, I have yet to receive my COBRA papers so I have no insurance. I have called them upteen times (Kelly is in charge of this and never returns calls)and now turned it over to the FL Dept of Labor. I hated doing this, but felt I had no recourse. Kelly blames the payroll people. Could be they are the problem, but no one is taking care of it.
And, I know what you mean about Jim. I thought he and I were friends (exchanged email jokes, etc), but he won't take my calls either. Jon, the IT guy is the best! Sad sad situation. Very disappointing.
I will be working with ATSI (radiology only) as they use the same platform. Anyone familiar with them?
ZyloMed
Anybody work for ZyloMed or know anything about them?
Zylomed
I was hired as an IC - sent a footpedal and their IT person could not get the platform to work - so they called and told me that I was fired - to which I responded they couldn't fire me because I was an IC and had never formally done any work for them. In looking further - the footpedal was broken - clipped/broken wires - this was their loss (15 years experience) not mine - glad I saw their true colors sooner than later. Check them out thoroughly before going with them.
ZyloMed
anyone familiar with Zylomed transcription company?
Zylomed
I was wondering the same thing. I got an E-mail from them today regarding a job. The pay sounds nice, but how are they to work for?
zylomed
thanks for input. i think I'll bail out of this one. susan
zylomed
Anyone work for them? Are you happy there? Please give me some info
zylomed
was wondering the same thing - i returned the questionnaire last friday and nothing........then another MT I know went to the website and filled out a different questionnaire on the following Tuesday and she received an email asking when would be the best time to call her - go figure?????
Zylomed - not for me
Jim, the hiring manager was not a good communicator. He offered me a job and told me that he was sending me the paperwork. I waited a week and still no paperwork. I called him and he never returned my phone calls. I e-mailed him and he never returned my e-mails. This company does not have their heads on straight in my opinion!
zylomed
Anyone currently working for them? How are they to work for?
Zylomed??
I talked to them some time back and they hired me but their IT person could never get the MT-World to work on my computer - I then got a call that they would have to let me go????? My response, I never worked one minute for you guys. I just took it for what it was and moved on. But if the IT person couldn't get things up and running in a week and then I get a call - that sent up a red flag - so I can't recommend them.
Zylomed
Anyone know anything about this company? Their website has very little info on it. I'm working for another national and not making much money because of all the ESLs. Zylomed said that I would be asigned exclusively to one doc or group of docs. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
zylomed
I work for them and like my job. If you need any more info email me
ZyloMed
Has anyone worked for ZyloMed? I can't find too much info about them from their site and I'm suppose to have an interview with them tomorrow.
Zylomed did me the same way
But it was the footpedal - it was their footpedal - the IT person couldn't get it to work - so they called and said they were sorry, but they would have to let me go - I told them that I never did any work for them, so how could they let me go I just chalked it up to experience - but I wasn't out $1000 - I believe small claims court is in order here.
Zylomed
IT guy is great. HR guy is not. Otherwise, no problems with them.
I believe Zylomed does...nm

ZyloMed
Hello. Can anyone give me any new information on whether or not ZyloMed is a good company to work for. I searched the Archives and most all comments are from 2004 and older (I think there was one from 2005). Thanks very much to all who respond. Have a great day!
LD 
ZyloMed
Thanks for the info nm. Have a good week.

I must have had the same QA. All e-mails in caps. Would sit for hours without work then was required to work on weekend. Left after a couple of months. Account manager was okay until the last couple of weeks. Felt like I was filling in till they could get someone else.
zylomed
Run, work is sporatic and QA hypercritical.
Zylomed
Me too....My pay every two weeks was less than $400...TWO WEEKS. Can never do anything right there. PLUS waiting for a check from two weeks ago that they never paid me for.
Zylomed
My first paycheck was under $100 for 2 weeks training. The QA is never satisfied. Have to wait one month before your first paycheck.
Zylomed
I started with Zylomed the beginning of the month. I think the radiology account is great. QA was not that bad. They are just doing their job. My first paycheck is close to $700.
Zylomed
Anyone with any experience with Zylomed. Good or bad?
zylomed
I worked for them for one week, loved the account (radiology) but the QA is a nitpicky nightmare....little emails with supposed errors, but you cannot get the voice file to listen, so how can you argue with them. I KNOW some the errors were not mine but mistakes in their templates.......Never met or IM my super or any QA people, just their little emails. Think they are a poorly run company...so when I got offered another job at .10 cpl, nicer people, decent QA and great account, I took it; but because I did not give 2 weeks notice, I lose $$ I earned first week (over $400) but what can I do, I will not lose other job for crappy zylomed.
Zylomed?
Does anyone currently work for Zylomed out of Florida? I'd love any info you could offer. Type of platform, cpl, benefits, etc. Thanks.
zylomed
I work as an independent contractor with Zylomed, and I have been with them for five years...I have had no problems with them...they have always been fair to me. I make an hourly rate right now, but two years ago before I started the hourly rate, I was making 10 cents a line. I believe they started me out at 8 cents per line, and I had about 15 years of experience at that time....but I got a raise when asked for it after about a year with them...I'm not sure about the benefits and paid time off because like I said, I'm an IC. I have always been able to flex my schedule, graduated from college while working from them and never had a complaint if I needed to change my schedule. I really have nothing bad to say about them, although I know some people do.
They work with Inscribe (Emdat)...it's not the best but it's not bad...the only complaint I have about the platform is the spellcheck, but there are ways around that, and I would be happy to share those with you if you ever need more information.
Good luck, and I hope I've been helpful. :-)
? on Zylomed
Are you saying that they offer the choice hourly vs cpl?
I'm PT Flex, and will no doubt be either thrown overboard and all washed up from CBay
or get the heck outta Dodge beforehand
ZyloMed
I searched the archives but could not find any current info on this company. Would like to hear pros and cons, please. Thank you.
