Not my company, but I think WebMedX has you do this. nm

I bet the company is Webmedx too. nm
my company pays downtime for conf calls...
Try Webmedx. Decent company, good benefits. sm
What a blow. Good luck
When the company asked me to start making long distance phone calls,
they offered to pay my long distance for the charges. I then got a cheap long distance plan to make the charges for them more reasonable.
You need to JUST SAY NO to making long distance calls for them. If they will pay for it then do it, otherwise no way.
PLEASE see my question regarding daily interruptions, phone calls, drop in guests/COMPANY BOARD
He calls me daily whining that he doesn't have any money. Then calls me names when I
a check. He hasn't looked for a job, hasn't even read the want ads, I'm sure. He told me he realizes he can't live without me. My paycheck is what he can't live without! I feel so humiliated and angry sometimes that I put up with him for as long as I did! 
I have gotten a few calls - sm
I actually have not minded that I have not taken a job with the ones that I have called, but one person did ask me for my opinion on what I liked about the companies I have worked for and what I didn't like and what exactly would be the ideal home position. I liked that she took the time to listen and took notes. Although we both felt I would not be a fit for their company (hours and work schedule weren't good for me) I actually enjoyed sharing and hearing her feedback.
The Q calls it ASR too.

urgent calls
That would work, with the cell phone. I have my house phone line and the extra phone line for work only. The company I work for has toll-free access, so I don't need toll call or long distance service, and it runs less than $20 a month.
I also like having caller ID so I can also see who it is, and the answering machine so I can hear why they are calling. If it's urgent or important, I take the call. Otherwise, I don't answer it. You wouldn't believe how much productivity it eats to answer the phone every time it rings.
I believe they know the pay is so low they wouldn't get any calls.

ROBBED at least once. Some calls
Especially the "TD" where his knees, shoulder, elbow, hand and ball hit outside the line and then he scooted it in w/ a wide-eyed guilty look.  And, Hawks would have done better if Stevens could catch.
Sweet reverse play by Steelers though and long run by Parker.
And very cute commercial w/ the Budweiser colt.
calls from India
Have received three phone calls from India...I can tell by the accent (I transcribe a lot of Indian doctors). The first two calls were just stuttering around, wanting my name, etc. The last one was Sunday night at 9:00 p.m., woke me up. I was furious and asked him if he knew what time it was. He said he had no idea, but started with that "your name please", etc. I yelled "don't ever call this number again", and I hung up. I have passed this around at work, and some people are getting calls from India...I think they get us off the computer some way. Anybody else having this happen?
calls from India
I wonder if they are trying to recruit? They make me so mad...the last time he said "your name please" I told him it was none of his freaking business!
WEBMEDX
can anyone tell me their experience with this company????? Desparate for info.
WEBMEDX DOES
Webmedx allows a window of time for the MT to work their required hours.
WEBMEDX!
Definitely Webmedx! 
WebMedX
Has anyone worked for MebMedX? Was thinking about applying.
Webmedx
Have worked for Webmedx now for many years - great company!! They have treated me very well as an MT - flexible schedule, good pay, great incentive pay, etc., plus they have very affordable insurance. I say go for it!
Webmedx
Their highest level is 4. I was just hired at that level.
webmedx
I'm a level 4, and I don't make 10 cpl - how did you swing that?
Webmedx - do they have ICs?
Any info about this company would be appreciated.

About WebMedX
Does WedMedX provide a computer too? What about for PT? Thanks.

WEBMEDX DOES NOT
Webmedx uses their own proprietary program, not Dictaphone ExText.
webmedx
Just a heads up for Webmedx -- they're a great co. but find out how much of their work is ESL and if that's what you really want.
Webmedx
In fact, Spheris just downgraded their insurance this year to where its a joke. Corporate kept the good policy and MT's got the crap policy "because they use it too much".
Webmedx has very decent BCBS, and costs less than Spheris because Webmedx pays a large portion of the premium for the employee. That shows they care about their MT's. I'm glad I made the change.
NOT WebMedX
According to a recent WebMedX ad on the Job Seeker's Board, they DO NOT ACCEPT Satellite.
WEBMEDX
Fax: 1.614.839.3706

WEBMEDX
Can anyone give me information about WEBMEDX. Also, does anyone know anything about their VR program and how user friendly it is. Also, anyone know their line rate for VR. Thanks
I'm using it with Webmedx. nm

harrasing phone calls
my local phone company as most do, has a harrasement dept. you set it up that each and every time you get a call, you hit a certain numbe of keys and it "logs" the calls. After 5 such calls, you then report it to the police dept, they get the records and can go after the creeps! You never know the number, but the police will let you know who the offenders are. My sis had to use it because of an ex boyfriend of my nieces...his mother lost ALL phone service for a year!
wish you had it, it worked great to stop the 2am calls.
get rid of any man who calls your children names!
Let alone call you names in front of them. He sounds like a true control freak and slob to boot. Your 16yo needs to NOT be exposed to this kind of behavior from a man...she'll end up getting into relationships thinking this is "the way I grew up" mode.
Keep your faith and get out and into living your own life for you and your own children.
Her hinchman calls and tries to convince you that she really does not mean it.
Or she will call repeatedly and half way apologize. She is really a sorry creature in every way. Can't call her a human because she definitely is not that at all. I really can't say that I ever saw her after lunch when she was truly sober. Beer for breakfast is the norm.
Not an MT's job to make those kind of calls...
in the first place. You're contributing behind closed doors. I would find another job.
random calls/drop ins
People just do not understand. I have just had to be rude without apology. I have had so many people call and even though I don't answer still drop by. I have to say that if I am too busy to answer phone then I am also too busy to go to the door. I have had them stand on the door step ringing the bell and calling my phone. More than once I have answered the phone to someone saying they were at my door. I say, "Oh, is that you ringing my bell? Sorry but I am working". They do not like it but neither do appreciate the disrespect. My friends have just learned to laugh it off. I stick to my guns, even with my family No work, no pay, is what I say.
Simon calls that the X factor....

I made calls when i moved here from OH
I was told I did not. I asked a few sources because I am NOT running a company and do not need a DBA. I guess that may change if someone files a complaint, but I am not going to do it if I don't have to.
Try Webmedx and Spheris

Working for WebMedX
I have worked for them for over 6 months now. I really like working for them. Pay and benefits are good. I haven't seen much overtime and sometimes they are low on work (only around Labor Day), but they will train you so you have backup accounts. Good people. They treat you well and have good communication, but don't nag at you. They are flexible for your working hours. They pay shift differential and weekend differential. Pay is based on experience level...and the tests are a little tough for some people. The accounts they have are all great, as far as I can tell, with good dictators for the most part. I'm a high level 4, so I get ESLs, but they aren't too bad. Training is easy to understand and their platform is so easy to use. They use Shorthand. I give them a thumbs up!! My experience has been pretty good. I have worked for several nationals before them and they are, by far, my favorite and seem to be the most fair pay-wise. Hope the info helps.
Webmedx offered me 10 cpl
They require at least 1000 lines per week. Incentive of 11 cpl over a certain amount of lines per week. This was for their highest level (3). I think they have a lot of ESL though.
OldTymer, are you still with Webmedx?
I saw one of your old posts searching archives, I think 2003. You said you were very happy with company. Still hold true?
CHECK OUT WEBMEDX
Check out Webmedx.
WEBMEDX - reviews?
Not enough work at my current job - need a company that offers ER-only work. Anyone work for them that could share an opinion? Would love also to hear how much they pay. Thanks so much!
Webmedx has the best benefits, all around sm
that I have encountered with a service. I end up using my PTO for sick days and other, but if I didn't, I would have 10 paid days of vacation; 5 days the first year, 10 days the next 4 years. No sick leave, per se, just all called PTO. Health insurance is reasonable for an individual, high for family. But the insurance is really good coverage.
Webmedx will take anyone. They even take recent sm
graduates and pay them to do acute care, with no experience. I don't think they would care that your acute care was in the past. Just empathize it, and demand a decent line rate. It is all going to ASR, anyway, and you will become an editor, just like the other very experienced MTs.
I got a job with WebMedx from this site.
Webmedx shifts
Is it set in stone that you have to work a weekend day with Webmedx? Is there any way around that?
WEBMEDX is a joke
This company is bologna. They expect you to be released from QA within 1-3 days, even though you need to learn an entirely new platform. The QA mentors in training will pick your work apart, take hours upon hours to get back to you with feedback, and then you will be blamed by your Supervisor for POOR QUALITY. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME with this SCAM.
Court battle over Internet Calls

For those MTs like myself who access their work over the Internet, would this consist of violating the HIPAA laws?
