AccuStat Wisconsin
Does anyone know if they have clinic work? TIA!
AccuStat EMR/carolinas is a great company!!
AccuStat EMR/Carolinas is a great company!! I can give you names of over 30 MTs besides my own that get paid with no problems!! They do not pay if work is late or of por quality but that is told to us before we start. If you did not get paid, your work must have been bad!! They do pay and they do not lie. Amazing when people get so upset with a company for not being paid...is usually the MTs fault!! This blog doesn't show that though.
AccuSTAT in Wisconsin is hiring for an ER account. See the Job Bank for specifics. IC position. NM

I work for a company out of Wisconsin
I actually work for a company based out of Wisconsin. Are you happy with your benefits with Humana One.
Be wary of Accustat as well..that is if it is Accustat carolinas.

Accustat Carolinas/ Accustat EMR
This company doesn't pay their MTs properly. Work at your own risk. See if they pay.
It is a GREAT company and great deal! I've had
Vonage about 6 months now and I love it. The only mistake I made was trying to keep my original phone # - I wouldn't recommend that. You have a temp # for a while, and the other provider can fight for the old #, etc. Go to vonage. com. They have new features all the time! There is even a new soft phone that is a phone on your screen. You don't need a real phone when working - just headset. It has 800 #s you can have very inexpensively - great voice mail. You get emails when you have new messages, etc. I only wish I had used them a year ago! Nothing but good things to say, and I complain about everything! 
Great company
Go for it. They are a great company to work for. Great benefits, wonderful people, flexible, plenty of work, direct deposit.
Great Company!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I currently work for this company, and I can honestly say that this is the first MT job that I have ever looked forward to doing every day. The work is great, the pay is great, and the boss is great. I don't have to share "pool" work with a bunch of night-feeding sharks that eat it all up before the sun rises, I don't have to punch a time clock, and my paycheck comes precisely when it is supposed to. I have answers to my questions whenever I need them, as well as encouragement. I would say to those of you who are complaining about, but have never worked for, this company and it's owner, maybe you should find something more productive to do with your time.
MDI is a great company. (See inside)
First off, Liz was not "promoted", she is the prior owner of the company.
Jason was fired.
We have very low turnover in team leaders, and the last time it was posted was around March of this year.
Good points about the backlogs, I will make sure that Deb & Terri send out the list of accounts that are out of TAT
Oracle is a great company.
Your own schedule, their platform is easy once you understand it, they don't bug you all the time, friendly staff, good techs who are very helpful, and it sounds like they fit you to an account that you feel comfortable with. WHAT more could you ask? Okay, if you want your equipment supplied and want bennies, then you'll have to take the stricter scheduling and go with another. But for me, Oracle is the only answer.
Great company to work for!
Maybe I just work for a great company
but where I work they provide the people at home computers and they pay for the DSL, and if they are required to come in to the office during one of their shifts (we do work shifts) then they are paid for travel time to and from. I don't think those things are unreasonable to ask for. A few of us work in house here because we choose to, but most of the MTs are at home.
That is where I work and yes, they are a great company...
I have plenty of work (sometimes too much but I would rather have too much than not enough), have never run out of work in 2 years and have great team leads...in my opinion, they are the best company out there, at least for me..
great company for equipment
If you need headsets, foot pedals, or other transcription equipment, give C.H.A.R.T.S. a try. They have always been super good to deal with and fast. I called yesterday morning, they helped me figure out which generic foot pedal I needed, and it arrived this morning, and I did not pay a huge amount for overnight ship, just a regular cheap drop ship price. I just love this place!

yes they are very flexible. They are a great company to work for.
Best job I EVER had!
What a GREAT idea! Good for your company. nm

I just started with a great company that I had to purchase
Docshuttle and waveplayer. I had contact with them throughout the period of waiting for the software to arrive, etc. If you purchased the disk and not just the download, you can return it.
Review in great detail with the company first....

There's a great company called Plantogen out of New Zealand.

Amphion in Wisconsin
Has anyone else got any feedback about Amphion out of Wisconsin? I was given this name by someone in response to my post and they spoke highly of this company. I just wondered what others have heard. Any info would be appreciated.
Amphion in Wisconsin
Thanks for getting back to me. Below is my "wish list." I have 15 years of experience in transcription and want to find a company that can offer:
1) Work weekdays from about 4 AM to 12 noon (but not assigned to a specific shift).
2) No mandatory weekends but can "plug in" on weekends and nights to make extra and do not have to get special permission.
3) Compensation by the page rather than the line if possible.
4) Assigned to one or two accounts that do not run out of work.
5) Accounts where doctors have normals (and getting paid for the normals).
6) Can use ShortHand word expander.
7) Have Microsoft Word - just a preference since I've used it before
8) Have done all specialties over the years but love oncology.
9) Prefer consults, discharges, H&Ps, etc.
10) Company provides hardware and software.
11) Paid benefits: Vacation (I get 10 days now), sick, holidays, 401K (matching would be wonderful), health insurance, et.
Obviously, this is a wish list and I can't imaging being able to find a company that can offer me all of the above, but these are the things that are of importance to me. I currently work for a service and do hospital oncology which I love, but am looking to make a change to a different service. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks for your reply. A few more questions if you have the time:
1. Did you have to go to their headquarters to train when you started or can someone who works from home be trained at home?
2. If you have to input patient name, medical record number, etc. for each report do you find it very time consuming and slows down your productivity?
3. How do you feel about the way you're treated routinely?
4. Are you happy with their compensation (payment per line, benefits, etc.)?
5. When you want to work overtime (over your 40 hour week) are you generally allowed to do so?
6. They require 12,000 lines minimum per pay period to be full time with benefits. Do you find it difficult to meet that requirement with the accounts that you have?
7. Do you like working on the Extent platform? I'm used to Microsoft Word and do not know how they compare.
8. Is their dictation usually clear?
9. Do a lot of the doctors have "normals" you can put in and be compensated for?
Thanks in advance for your time. Right now I can't think of anything else but if I do can I contact you again with questions?
Was this national in Wisconsin?
Just curious - I remember taking a radio button skills test and having to TX 4 files, and I passed, but decidend to go with another service. If you did indeed not pass the skill set (but you don't REALLY know that you failed - just what they are telling you) - I would suggest brushing up with "Medical Terminology," by Davi Ellen Chabner and getting a Taber's Cyclopedic Dictionary (one that the nurses use). Of course, I'm probably dating myself and there are better reference materials out there now - but those are what I used in college when I "almost" became a nurse.
no i don't love being MT but it beats McDonalds. no i don't work for a great company.
no raises and constant shift in management. no i don't make more than enough money to just pay my bills but i have cut down on overhead of regular job outside of the home.
it's an okay job relatively speaking.
Agree! This company is great! Fast service. Big selection. Willing to help, too. nm

Great company but like everyone else they over hire. Haven't had work since before Christmas *sm
because it is a slow time and I refuse to get up at 4:00 a.m. to beat someone else to it. I am in the process of obtaining a second and third account and am going to start looking out for myself from now on. I now understand why there is such a turnaround with MTs and companies - seems like the companies overhire and then the MT has to look elsewhere - they work at the new company for awhile until they find that they have now over hired and then they look elsewhere. I have been with MDI for a few years and I plan to stay there but I am going to take on another job or even two so I do not sit idle when times are slow.

Encompass is based in Wisconsin
www.encompassmt.com
I know of a company who is restarting up their mentoring program for newly-graduated MTs. A GREAT
company to work for - I think they are independent contractor status, though not sure about their mentoring program status. At any rate, they are willing to take new grads and help them transition into actually working! The women who owns the company is truly wonderful. I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to work with her, though I don't at the moment. The company is Accu-Stat in Wisconsin! Keep that name somewhere on a sticky or something! Really great people, and she did mention that she really wants to restart this program she used to have for newbies! Blessings to you and good luck! Have fun! Cause it sure can be fun, while having to work, which, of course, is not fun in and of itself, huh?? Oh, to be independently wealthy. Congrats on your new baby, by the way!! And that's SO great that your Mom is there for you! You have a good example to follow!

accustat
I have never heard of Cort Medical but I have been with AccuStat for 6 monhs now and I love it. The freedom they give is great and the pay is always on time. Tough choice. I would do both!!
AccuStat MT
AccuStat is indeed a great company....I have a LOT of people that will agree believe me...we have all been with them for a month to many years and we all love the company...maybe you were one of the fired ones..all the fired MTs write bad things...
ACCUSTAT EMR
Does anyone have info on this company (South Carolina).
Accustat
This company didn't pay me as well. I guess they pay a lot of MTs well yet miss payments on a lot of other MTs. I got another friend that they didn't pay as well.
Still with Accustat EMR?
Are you still with Accustat EMR? I am contemplating IC position with them.
I like Accustat Carolinas but some do not
Not everyone fits everywhere, I'm treated just fine,,, In my opinion they have different accounts and I think it depends what they put you on... I love my account
AccuStat is awesome!!
They not only have great accounts but they care about their MTs. I love them and I think you are crazy to go anywhere else!!!
Accustat LLC does anyone work for them
 Does anyone know if the pay if 1/2 each pay check of your total lines?
AccuStat has accounts that use this!
nm
accustat emr (carolina)
they don't pay properly. aside from the cheap pay. you might just waste your time and money.
Accustat has been good to me
Another MT called me and told me that people were talking bad about Accustat. I am aware of MANY MTs that are very happy with this company. Good work equals good pay, on time, every time!! I recommend them to anyone!!
Soft Script and Accustat
I am busting my hump trying to learn SS (I am a newbie with some experience but under a year) and I also am an IC for Accustat, now I have to really work for hours on end to try to get a line count for SS and on my Accustat its a nice account where I can have a line count with normal speed and hardly any ESL's
So basically here is my problem should I keep working for SS ( i have had no problems with pay, of course I don't make much of a line count) or should I just do my Accustat account and quit SS
Did I forget to mention I also have a day job....lol (My hope is to just MT and make some money someday)
SS takes out taxes and IC does not so I going to just go with SS but reading all of these posts makes me think just do my IC job for awhile and stop working three jobs busting my but
