I think it depends on experience, account hired for, etc. I was hired at .08 per line sm
but after 90 days went to 0.085 and then 0.09 about 90 days after that. I am now at 0.0925 and have been there a year. I have to point out that the line rate might not be the highest but I can verify my counts, have plenty of work, get paid on time and have a great manager. To me, leaving a bad national and the headaches that went with it was well worth the cut in pay I took. Funny thing is that I took a pretty sizable pay cut but make more money ?!?!
I agree, I think it's probably account specific.
On both my accounts I log directly into the facility system, so if that account were to want coverage for particular hours, then I think that's probably what KS tries to provide. Luckily my two don't care so long as the work gets done and they stay in turnaround.
If they hire you to work on a specific account
Sounds too controlling for my taste.
I just got hired for that account. SM
They are hiring 100 MTs for it. My training date is still open as I just told her I would be available after a certain date. They are hiring people beforehand to let them get used to their platform, then will transition them to the new account when it comes mid July. The account is 1000+ beds.
Maybe it was just directed to the people on specific accounts or a specific software platform. nm

Were you recently hired for a new account? If so (sm)
wouldn't it be easier for you to ask them at the office if the acct has started, if not when, if it has, ask for a backup. Coming here and complaining does no good.
depends on what account you are hired for..
nm
depends on what account you are hired in for...
I am on an account that is determined by TAT, not set hours.
When I hired on they stated the account was listed as 30-35% ESL (sm)
but they thought the percentage might be a litte higher. I have had quite a few ESL, probably closer to 45-50%, but only one was what I considered really horrible and when I went back, QA had left some blanks too, so I didn't feel too bad.
Have been doing this for 20+ years and I still say I would rather have an ESL anyday compared to a mushmouthed speed demon.
So far everything about them and the account I am on has held true to what they said. Very nice people, good sound quality and the program is easy to work on.
I applied, was called and hired for the account I was on at QT. nm
no msg
WebmedX got the account. I was hired by them today for
the account. I was also told by another company that they had bid on the account themselves and were told by the account that they were not going to renew with QT. This was SEVERAL months ago. Some people have been called about another account that was lost in addition to the big one.
Anyone hired by Futurenet to work on the new SC account? SM
I might apply, just wanted some info, thanks.
Me too, just hired on, and already the account I am on had very little work over the weekend.
Hope this is just a fluke and its not like this daily.
Would it be worth discussing this with them before being hired that you want to train on the account
you will be working on and wont stay if you get put on accounts noone else wants. Would that make a difference to be upfront and tell them that.
Depends on the account for which you are hired, my accounts are low occasionally but usually with a
couple of backup accounts and doing all work types, you can do fine.
I said "about to be" hired... not yet hired, and ........
considering it just like I would consider any job.... I didn't accept the job yet and wanted to check out the info out there.
Sorry, I should have been more specific. sm
Mostly, just the usual -- are you happy there? Would you recommend it to your friends? Pay on time? Work flow consistent?
Thanks!
More specific please- MS in NJ or FL? nm
.
Can you be more specific on what you'd like to know? sm
Good benefits (PTO, pd holidays, life, medical, dental insurance); good amount of work available (except this week has been slow on some accounts); they provide equipment (you do pay deposit, returned at time of leaving); direct deposit, always on time pay; easy to use platform (but you need high speed Internet); good training and I LOVE my manager (responsive to emails and phone calls, doesn't micromanage me).
Weak spot would be tech support (depends who you get).
Can you be more specific? nm
Were they at all specific about SM
what they meant when they said typing skills? That is so vague.
You need to be more specific, such as ....
Employee status or IC?
Benefits?
Work type?
Set schedule?
Okay, but that's not very specific (sm)
I guess I should have asked for all opinions happy and otherwise. If you work for Webmedx, would you mind telling what has been the problem?
Can you be more specific?
Turns out they are not hiring for a month or two anyway!
Sorry, I should have been more specific.sm
MDI MTs will be getting a call in October/November and will find out then what the offer is.
TT..please be more specific about platform..sm
You say you like the co...please tell me what kind of platform you work on and are you able to increase your line count using the platform easily? Good incentives?
Yes, they do. Maybe your specific experience
does not match up with the positions they have available right now?
Can you be more specific? This doesn't help at all. nm

I don't know about these specific companies
Ablescribe in the mid-TN region and they are hiring. Pretty simple work, a nursing home same 4 or 5 docs and a lot of the same patients daily too. My sis works there and loves it.
I am from TN too!
ablescribe.com, I believe.
could you be more specific on what you love so much about it?
nm
Ask about specific companies. (NM)
Goldbird
Could the replies be more specific
I am considering them also and would like more substantial information than vague statements. That is no help at all. Please if anybody has any experience with them or works for them, please I would also like to know how they are.
Could you be a little more specific? Your post
completely... too many metaphors. Not a lot has happened at my end, but who's to say other people have heard other things. What finally prompted you to jump ship, other than the obvious India-based thing?
This is when you turn over specific
examples to your supervisor and get some answers. I would keep a record of every inconsistency and send them in.
Cannot name specific accounts.

specific answers ..
hi ..
1. Does the ShortHand Expander work on DocQScribe?
not sure .. pretty sure it does.
2. How easy is the platform to learn?
very ... just use keyboard commands instead of mouse
3. How easy is the platform to navigate around when you are in a report -- and are there a lot of steps to saving, sending, etc?
I find it easy and there are not a lot of steps ..
4. Can you look up prior patient reports?
no
5. Can you make your own templates?
You have to put them in the expander and it depends on company policy; they do not want cut and paste as it can affect formatting on client end
6. How is the spellchecker?
okay
7. Can a fast typist make good line counts?
yes .. friend does over 300
8. Is the line count mechanism accurate?
mine has been when I checked it
From my experience, it is a great system.
I too lost production but I started using it but that has been true for me with any windows-based program I have worked on ..
give me back my DOS and WP .. .that is when I used to make good money .. LOL
good luck to you .. you will be fine
PS - However, The speech recognition of MQ (ASR) is terrible unless you have really great dictators.
you dont need your specific
numbers to do your FAFSA. There's a question on the renewal that asks if you've filed your taxes yet, you just say no.
I've not gotten my W2 from TT, and I don't see ANY excuse for that.
specific company name?
nm
Then, obviously, be more specific in your posts
When you post something as vague as your post, you should realize you're leaving far too much open to question. And if you'll read my post, you'll see I tried to clarify in which direction you were attempting to with your ambiguity.
Before you get your feathers ruffled, re-read what you're posting to make sure it conveys the message you are trying to get across.
Glad you weren't sniping at her, though.
That account in Texas was not a MQ account. They did not use DQS on that account until KS started.
They are moving 3 other accounts to DQS between now and January 1st. I asked. The MQ accounts they have gotten in the past did not go to DQS. I followed my old account, which is how I know, and it was Meditech. The account is still run by KS and is a big account too.
Which mediscript?? What are your specific questions? nm
x
Can you please be more specific regarding "play favorites?"
Can you please be more specific regarding "play favorites?" I used to work there and never had a problem with QA in general; maybe it depends on the account you are assigned to. Although, I do doubt the competency of management there and agree with the other post that you pratically have to "work like a horse" to make any money.
Translutions..good/bad? please be specific..nm
s
Does DRC assign specific worktypes or do you sm
get a regular account like with the big nationals? TIA
It probably would depend on the specific software.
In my case, I have no problem. My IC position is done strictly in Word with downloading and uploading files to FTP, so it really does not require any particular software.
Ask about specific companies in a new post, please.
Goldbird
I would not cite the specific reason
just say not working out as you had hoped. Good luck
answers to your specific questions
12 hour window - no, you give them your schedule of hours you want to work and if it works for them, they approve the schedule and you stick to it. However, they are flexible if things come up and you need to start an hour late or early - just let them know ahead of time. Also flexible for appointments or if you need to trade a day for the most part.
Expander Program is ShortHand for PC.
You would have to ask their IT guys about transfering your entries into their computer. I just sat my two PCs next to each other and created the entries on the SH on the work PC, only took an hour or so to do and well worth it.
Ad seems very specific about acute care.
nm
Yeah I think you'll need to be more specific...
.
It's specific to the software Emdat sm
I understand you could possibly get your Infinity pedal to work with Emdat's software but it takes quite a bit of time and finagling and then still might not work.
