offshore to India, it's OFFSHORE (off shore), not outsource to India.

working from overseas - Not offshore!
Can a medical Transcriptionist travel overseas and still work for a U.S. transcription company, as long as he/she maintains a U.S. residence and pays U.S. taxes? Is there any legal reason why they could not do so? Are any of you transcriptionists presently doing this, and which companies do you work for?
yes, they still OFFSHORE (not outsource), otherwise
nm
Do you mean outsource as in offshore? (NM)

They DO NOT outsource/offshore.
TT does not offshore or outsource
TT has to do whatever Dictaphone-Nuance says to do. It would be great if TT would get their own accounts that Dictaphone-Nuance had no control over.
offshore, not outsource.

Would never go back there...do a search (Outsource Offshore too) (nm)
 QA and managers more important than MTs...
How about this? In a nutshell, which companies DO NOT outsource OFFshore?
They have told us they absolutely do not outsource or offshore
E-mail came from big boss explaining trying to clear up rumors saying they do not do this. I have no reason not to believe them. They are great people to work for. No job is perfect, but TT makes me very happy.
offshore (out of country) to India ... not outsource.

Focus question - they still offshore, correct? sm
Heard a rumor they were bringing everything back - could not believe it so wanted to verify here. Figured that would be a cold day in....
This seems to be pro-offshore board. Messages against offshore often just disappear.

outsource overseas a percentage, which could go up...(nm)

They dont outsource...THEY ARE AN OVERSEAS COMPANY
check out www.spi-bpo.com you will see that they are 100% owned by the Philippine Telephone Company now. The US venture holder sold them. I know they have lost many accounts over the last year or so. I know they also have a lot of turnover in management. I'd steer clear of these folks.
hope you got knee pads! LOL outsource overseas...NM

lots of good technical things, but they outsource overseas
and a lot of their managers are from the old Edix, which is not a good thing, if you want to be treated with respect.
if you do not mind how you are treated, you can do okay. hard getting lines consistently.
my opinion. maybe things have changed, but I have read a lot of negative on here lately.
probably because they OUTSOURCE OVERSEAS...perhaps that number is reserved for the India account...?
Good luck to you...
OUTSOURCE OVERSEAS, OUT OF WORK ALL THE TIME - GOOD LUCK (nm)

Technically, outsource is still the correct label
It falls under the umbrella of outsourcing, and offshoring is a specific type of outsourcing; i.e., there is domestic outsourcing (kept within the country) and offshore outsourcing (sent out of the country).
That means they do outsource. One division is here and one division overseas,
The offshore...
but that's to cover third shift. They have no intention of replacing their whole staff with offshore workers. There are things I don't like about the company but I believe them when they say that. They've been offshoring for years and have plenty of work for those who want to work in the US.
Offshore, offshore, offshore.

Do you me offshore
Outsource is what hospital do when they send their dictation to a company such as Transcend or OSI.
Offshoring is when they send their dictation to overseas transcriptionists. It is easy to confuse the two.
offshore definitely nm

They offshore, top pay is around 8.5 cpl.
There have been several complaints the last couple of weeks about lack of work. Benefits are good. Don't know about platform. Check archives, lots about them lately.
Offshore
Diskriter and OSi also offshore.
Rather than have new posters search through tons of archives for answers to this question, maybe a list should be made of all companies that do offshore and posted permanently on the board, with revisions made as new ones come up. Just a suggestion...please no flames!
Yes, they offshore.
They have a facility in India. The fact that they offshore is all over this board. They have purchased several companies. I do not know if one of them is in New Jersey.
Did he tell you they offshore? nm
They offshore.
They both offshore
nm
They use offshore. sm
I saw this on their website under hospital solutions:
We offer a choice of Domestic or Philippine based medical transcription services with U.S based Quality Assurance specialists, and 24-hour or STAT file turnaround.
They offshore too.
It's offshore
I never thought the academic and research would go offshore too, but I was wrong.
With a pay cut like that...they might as well offshore.

Offshore sm
Medware, Focus Infomatics and OSI send work offshore. Don't know about the other one.
and it's no wonder MT is going offshore with
makes an MT work under these conditions!
They offshore. Very low pay.
.
I think you mean that they offshore.
.
They offshore. They don't pay very well.
They've changed the way they pay recently, which I think is a bit strange, but seems an attempt to make it seem like you are making more than you are.
No but they do offshore
They finally admitted it after denying it for years. I am looking for another job for a lot of reasons. One reason is the extra work without pay, and they do offshore on one of my accounts so I have to hop around to find work to do. I am tired of it. The other poster is correct-- they do not seem to care about the MTs.
Yes they do offshore
Yes, they offshore
They offshore, pay low.
I think two people who work there speak English.
Well they do offshore of course
They go give mentees a chance and spend the rest of their time figuring out ways to screw the rest of the MT's out of lines and money.
It's definitely the big O that is sent offshore
because I had to QA them.
Yes, they now offshore sm
They have what they call Precyse International now in India I believe.
It was a pretty great place to work, but as soon as they started to offshore, things changed quite quickly. They sent the good work away to Precyse International, at least on the accounts I worked on anyway. That is why I left.
They do offshore!
Yep, they do, I work for them and I do know this for a fact.
How do you know they offshore?
Their recruiter told me they don't. Specifically, I asked if that was how they got their name and was told Yes. But WHY are they ALWAYS advertising?
yes they offshore, otherwise not bad
they pay on time, pay rate is 6.5/9, insurance isn't great, but my supervisor and QA are good, they have incentives and overall are decent.
They offshore..nm

AND they don't offshore!!
