American Association of Medical Transcription Service Owners
They do not represent the rights of the individual Transcriptionist it seems but rather promote their organization in order to continue to exist and to continue to survive, they seem to think they should stand up for the service owner and not the MT.
You'd think they would be giving information on how to get more production since our wages have stood still and unless speed engines are used, we make much less than what one would think.
I am a service owner!!! That's pretty much

As a service owner, I like to hire MTs from hospitals that outsource to us sm
and often ask if it is OK to talk to the MTs at the hospital. I make sure that they know that I did not "take" their job - it it were not us, another service would have gotten the account.
My old MT instructor/service owner hired someone because she "had a good ear." She

Medical Transcription In The Era Of Electronic Medical Records
EMR has revolutionized the healthcare industry in recent times. Many experts felt that EMR & Voice Recognition would totally replace Medical Transcription - however; the industry soon realized that transcription has certain advantages over point & click charting and many physicians preferred to dictate notes rather than document the data at the point of care themselves.

How about....No Injuns Transcription Service.
thinking about selling my transcription service...
 and just wondering if any one has any opinion on interest in that. The person owning the company would make a minimum of $82,500 a year, running the business and doing some transcribing part time. It would be very easy to do some marketing and bring in some new accounts, which could easily push that 82500 to over 100000 a year. I have repetitive stress injury and my doctor has told me I need to find something else to do. I was thinking if there was an MT or a group of MT's (the company is incorporated so shares can be sold) that would like to get together, they can eliminate the middle man, earn retail price for their lines and establish job security, not to mention satisfaction. Price would be around $250,000 but like I said, a group of people could go together to cover that and with a little work in marketing, it could be paid off in three years. The business is about 10 years old and to the point where it is generating its own referrals. It could really go places if someone wanted to spend a little time marketing to a few new hospitals. Any one have any thoughts on this.
Do you work in a hospital or a Transcription Service
Office? It is a hospital there should be a manager that you can go to or an administrator. Production is key in hospital work, and it is important you have the quiet you need to produce.
Software to Use to Set Up Digital Transcription Service
Hi Everyone,
Looking for assistance with setting up a digital dictation transcription service. What is the appropriate software to use for the digital dictation, transcription, downloading voice files, typing reports, uploading reports to facility, HIPAA compliance, etc. Would like to do this without spending a huge amount of money, but at the same time want to be secure and compliant. Any and all assistance would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance. 
Transcription Application Service Provider.
IOW the smart computer folks who deal with the headaches! :)
They provide HIPAA complaint file hosting/ftp set up for MTs. Some charge per line, other charge per month, it just varies. Some provide a call in dictation service and charge per minute. It's great if you have no capital in invest in equipment. :)
I'm not sure but I think it's what some MTs refer to as a platform?
I think any transcription service can well assess an MTs ability
requires so many test files to be transcribed is taking advantage of applicants.
Considering selling my transcription service. See message
I have an established transcription service that I am considering selling. Anyone know who I would contact to pursue this? Thanks in advance.
I worded it wrong - should have said new idea for transcription service. sm
This "branch" of the company will be in office only. The rest of our transcriptionists are at home. I just feel that new grads have no place to go after finishing school but realistically they are not ready to be on their own at home for 6 months to a year. This will bridge that gap, let us train new MTs correctly, add more MTs to the U.S. transcription pool, etc.
Idea for a new transcription service. We are looking for some ideas to firm things up. TIA. sm
Here is the basic structure:
All work kept in the United States. Recent graduates of either a 2-year community college program or one of the better distance learning courses.
We are thinking of opening a combination office/training center. Half will be recent grads. Half will be seasoned MTs who like to mentor.
The seasoned MTs will get an hourly with a line incentive as there will be time taken away to be second ear for the newbies, more in the beginning, less as time goes on.
The newbies will have to be in-house at the company for one year on either 1st, 2nd or 3rd shift.
The newbies will receive either by the line or by the hour, have not decided.
What do you think would be a fair hourly for the new grad? For the seasoned MT who will be transcribing their own work and mentoring.
We want to be generous without going bankrupt.
Do you all think the idea is a good one?
If you could work in house at a company with good benefits would you prefer that to working at home?
Just looking for some input. It looks good to us, but outside opinions really can be eye-openers.
This is an established company, so there would be plenty of work. All of our MTs are home-based now, but not sure if everyone really wants to be home-based. We are near a major metropolitan area, so finding the MTs should not be a problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
..or when the doc dictates "prior report LOST by XXX Transcription Service...AGAIN." sm
I work for a national MT company, we do hospitals all over the country, I work from home. I have NO control over where the chart goes once I send it in, I'd bet the original chart was never dictated and hence never 'lost' by us....but in the case that it may have been, THEY HAVE THE PHONE NUMBER of the company to call them, they have specific contacts at the company for issues such as this...I CAN'T HELP YOU WITH THIS, especially when all they're doing is bitching at me on a voice file. Funny, it's always the same couple of docs complaining of lost dictations. Curious that it's JUST THEM. ;-)

I think they are actually dictating to a transcription service (Baker Sten-Stel) via C-phone
then they e-mail back to the doctor's office for me to type. So maybe it will go back to them for QA. Why I don't know. This work cameto me from a temp service and they obviously did not know much. I will find out Monday morning. Thanks for your input. I will more than likely be on this site screaming for help. The AOL question was just in case I can get them to use my home office next time, because I just switched to DSL through AOL and I was hoping that would would work with Express Scribe, my footpedal and their software.

Hi,
I am working as a QA for a reputed firm for the last five years. After putting in so many years of work for a firm, I feel confident of doing various reports.
I would like some help from you to find me some work. Can you please suggest or provide me some work if you have excess work.
medical transcription not really all
Just wondering, because lately the dictators have gotten so sloppy, it seems they do not care, or there just aren't any consequences to getting the medical records that we type munched up. I work for a national and the dictations are so sloppy I cannot make out even the little words that are transitioning the sentences. I feel they think it is silly and a waste of their time, otherwise why would they rush, slur, muck it up now more than ever? Even dictating the wrong medications.

Before I got into medical transcription
I worked from home as a customer service rep. I worked for west at home and I took phone calls from ppl ordering from HSN. I didn't do it for long because I really hated it because you had to stay on the phone all day and talk with ppl. But if you don't mind that, there are tons of work at home cust serv positions. have you also considered general/legal transcription?

Medical transcription
 I have tried to post this twice before , but was given some lame reasons about me mentioning a certain company or 2 - This company has a site of their own on this forum, so I am guessing that is the reason why!
To all you newbies - good luck - you're going to need it!!!! Back in the middle 90s I was making almost $50,000 a year MTing, just my normal hours a day. For the past couple of years I have been lucky to make $20,000 a year, doing twice as much work, of course. I guess when you have foreigners who will type the stuff for 4 cents a line, why do they need us? This used to be a great profession to get into. All of the business colleges had courses in it - which I took 2 years of, plus worked in an office for 2 years before staying home with my babies.
I guess it served it's purpose when I needed it, but if you are looking for an MT job - Please be very cautious!!!! They will promise one thing and deliver another. Try doing 5 different hospitals, all with at least 500 docs, who, of course, all want something done different/specifal just for them, and you may get these docs to transcribe, oh lets see, maybe once a year - but God forbid you for get that E-mail from 6 months ago that Dr. So and So wants his dictation done in a different format!
This profession has really becme ridiculous, and gets worse and worse by the day! I am collecting unemployment now, which is not much less than I was making transcribing, and I am planning on going back to college to obtain a real degree with a REAL job! Good luck to everyone who hangs in there!!! REALLY! I hope you prosper!
Now, I know there are going to be MTs out there who claim to type 3000 lines a day and make 15 cents a line - Bullcrap!!!! I can type ANY speciality and after all these years I haven't met one person who could type faster than myself!!!!
Now, I'm sure this will probably be deleted because MTing is the bread and butter of this web site, but just in case, if there is anyone out thre thinking about transcription as a position, think again!! Wendy
We're not a transcription service. We offer toll free call in dictation
service at rock bottom prices. I was only offering you an alternative without having to put out a lot of money by buying handheld units.

If I am taking a transcription test from an employer and the dictator dictates physician names in the report, do I phonetically spell the name out or put a line for a blank?

PHOENIX medical transcription. Any information good/bad???
Thanks
Are there really schools out there for medical transcription
that mentor you and help you find a job when you complete their course? I don't want to pay the money that these places charge without knowing that in the end I will have a job. Do any of them have internships where they place you with a company? I need accurate info as I don't have money to throw away and want an MT career. Thanks.
future of medical transcription?
I have been doing transcription now for a while, under five years, for a national. How long do you all think it will be until it is a completely a speech recognition technology? My national is definitely trending towards the speech recognition and I just wonder how long it will be until it is totally that platform, and before hospitals and other nationals as a whole start using it mainstream. Medical editing doesn't seem like it will be very lucrative as transcription has been in the past.

Encompass Medical Transcription
I have been contacted by this company out of Wakesha, Wisconsin. The President/CEO is Tamara Brown.
I am considering accepting a position with them. I did hear from 2 people and it was positive feedback.
Guess the company must be a well-kept secret! LOL
Appreciate any news you may have on this company.
Encompass Medical Transcription
What restrictions are you referring to? Clinic notes are at 0.74 cpl and 0.77 cpl and Hospitals they pay up to .10 cpl. They offer bonuses, which seem attainable. The national I am with makes it virtually impossible to get a bonus. There is no incentive, that is one of the reasons why I am considering this company but I have not spoken with a recruiter yet.
Encompass Medical Transcription
Who contacted you? You mean you did not inquire or apply for a position?
Encompass Medical Transcription
I have been hearing good stuff about them. They are supposed to be one of the only MT companies that allow you to chose your hours and days. They offer insurance, which is important to me.
My only concern is the 12,000 lines every pay period. If their platform is really good, I am sure it should be no problem. The one I currently use is a nightmare! Constantly crashing and slowing down. I work for a national.
