questions for those working for Probity. sm

I read the other post but was wondering if some of you who responded to that or anyone else could answer a few more things if you had time.

i tested with them yesterday and was wondering if the transcription portion of the test is anything like the dictators really are; are there lots and lots of ESLs??  that was a hard test.  i don't mind some ESLs but not 90% ESLs as i gotta make income too. 

how do you like the medremote and is it user friendly, hard/easy to get line counts?  i haven't heard of it before so i am curious.  i hate changing jobs!!!!!  also, can you use Instant Text with it?

i really liked the incentive portion as i worked one company with that before and it kinda pushed me more to hit the top of the ladder to get more pay.  i didn't quit til my goal for that day was hit so i made more $ in the long run. 

glad to hear some positives and happy MTs there.  TYIA!!!!

Can anyone tell me if its a good company to work for and if they outsource of have VR?  What about the benefits?  Any info would be appreciated.  TIA. 

What kind of platform do they have for ER work? Do you need a second phone line? Also, are their schedules strictly Su-Thu or Tu-Sa or can you just work a couple weekends per month?  Do they have a pretty good health plan?

TIA!

to here goes...firstly, I don't know about the platform, only that it is Word based. Secondly, I have many years cardio, and thirdly, no the test was not hard. Still looking for any answers to my questions above. Thanks in advance.

These people are unprofessional.  Don't waste your time there either.

99% ESLs, forget them!

I am happy employee at Probity...have never ever had any problems!

Does anyone have any information on Probity MT or has anyone worked for them?

Thanks

I'm an employee.  When they made me the offer, they phrased it as we'd like to offer you a position, working Wednesday through Sunday from 7:00 pm to 3:30 a.m.  That's eastern time and I'm in the Mountain time zone, so it works for me and my body clock.  I don't know if they have IC status.  I don't think they do. I get the impression they like a little bit more control that they can only get with employees.  They want specific shifts filled and they want you to be accountable for it. So, the other part of that, is no, I do not believe you could set your own hours.

They started me at 8.75 cpl.  It's good for me - I've only been doing this for about 2 years.   Their platform is called Integra, sometimes I think it's referred to as IType.  It's pretty decent - based on Word.  We do have to format documents, which takes a little bit of getting used to, but it only adds a second or two to the process for me now.  The sound files are not the greatest quality.  The doctors use the telephone and call in to a main number for the recording.  Some of the sound quality is really bad and I have a hard time figuring out what they're saying.  That's this account, though.  They could be hiring specifically for another account that has a different way of recording things.

I've had worse recordings and I've had better recordings so overall I can't complain too much.  

If they're hiring, I'd say definitely go for it.  It's a pretty decent place to be employed.

I used to work for Probity, but soon realized that they are too customer-specific for their own good.  They have several different hospitals all around the US and they have specifics that are different for each and every one of them.  Too much stuff to remember and I just could never do anything just right.  On the upper hand, their staff are nice and do try to work with you.  The pay is not what it should be.  I would be on for four hours and could not make over 40 bucks a night.  To me, it was not worth it.  Also, they use Integra and it is very, very slow.  You just cant make the lines on it like you could on any other platform.  Their pay is always on time and they give the option of direct deposit, which was nice.  No one could fault you for trying, because that is really they only way you will know if you can or not.  Any place will have its good and bad things, I just could not deal with the hassle of remembering specifics and having to stop and look at my papers to make sure everything was done.  It takes a lot of time and cuts your lines.  Good luck. 

A few days ago, the company I work for (Probity) without warning fired the best QA/trainer I ever worked with. Probity supposedly means integrity. I am now looking.

Couldn't find much on a search on this board. I'm wondering whether they are IC/employees, set schedule/line count, internet work/phone line, etc. Thanks.
