a company I talked to said it was not...
she said it was the anti-AAMT; a new group that was against offshoring.
Local radiology company, not transcription company
who has only 5 transcriptionists and are not hiring at this moment. We all work at home and get great benefits, no insurance out of pocket and 22 days paid vacation in the first year, after that it goes up. I feel very fortunate to have found them, but again I chose them because they did not do production, so now that they are, I'm a little disappointed.
CHS transcription company?
Has anyone worked for CHS (Comprehensive HealthCare Services) which is based in Georgia?

Transcription company
Anyone heard of a company called Priority Medical? I sent my resume to the owner **** but when I check on Internet Priority Medical is not owned by her and she claims she is the owner. How can I be sure?
Transcription company
Do not work for her. She is very cunning and will rip you off your money....she can feign an accident of herself or someone in her family or blame you for incorrect line counts, etc., or blame UPS for not delivering the check, or say Paypal has a problem.....she will use all these methods and more after two or three months. She plans and executes well to loot people!
honest transcription company
Does anyone know of an honest transcription firm. Looking for names.
there is a radiology transcription company in NY - but you
have to live in NY or NJ or even into CT or PA to work for them. But it has to be close to NYC.

Question re: transcription company
Ladies: Has anyone ever heard of Klaar Transcription? I started a PT job with them over 1 month ago. I submit timesheets for lines worked. So far I have only received 1 paycheck. I call their office numbers and no one will answer the phone. President of company said he would "wire" my check if I don't receive it in the mail. He is putting me off. Last PPE was 12/15/05. I am wondering about the integrity of this company. Anybody hear of them? I should have received a paycheck by now. Already called state labor department today. Any ideas out there?

I would like to get on with the hospital or possibly the company who handles their transcription.
I have been considering working locally instead of for a national or switching to another company from the company I currently work for. Since losing my initial primary account and having to switch to another account, my income has declined and it doesn't appear to be getting any better. Not sure why, it is not from my lack of working. I just can't seem to make the counts on this new account as I could on my previous account. I now do some editing on top of my transcription due to time restraints I cannot put in any more hours than I already do. Thanks for the input. My husband recently started working at this particular hospital. I am hoping he will be able to find out for me but no luck yet.
I need to know the best unlimited long distance company to use for transcription PLEASE. sm
I have unlimited long distance that is residential. Any suggestions on which company is best for unlimited long distance to use for transcription?
Thread on Jax Transcription is actually on the company board and not deleted.
Apparently no one has any information, just speculation.
You are correct. Developed by a transcription company, but a division also lease its use to sm
facilities. I knew that, but had never encountered anyone who works with it in the real world who doesn't not work for the specific company that developed it. They keep us pretty much in the dark about that stuff.
anyway, when the platform is working well, it is not impossible to make over 300 lph. 350 would be rare, and depend a lot on formatting, what you are paid for and what you are not paid for.
Finding out options/information on more efficient ways of running transcription company.
Anyone have any advice on where one would start if one wants to upgrade their current transcription system? I am an MTSO whose company is growing and I have found that the current call in system is becoming congested as there are only 8 lines and I want to make the move to be internet based, but not quite sure where to begin finding out information about this or what sort of companies I would call to help me get this system in place. Can anyone offer some advice? Thanks in advance.
I know - me too - I talked to
she said things are just as crazy in Canada now days as they are in the States...though they are stressed over our hurricane/new orleans situation a lot.
But prices of land and housing are just as bad there as here - |

Medical Transcriptionist - Penticton Regional Hospital - OKS-FAC-05-105
Employer: Interior Health – We want our patients to have the best possible care and that means we need the best possible people.
Location: Penticton, British Columbia
You probably should have talked to tax guy
x
Last I talked to them and
talked to somebody who worked there, the pay was only about 7 cents a line and the software/system was not very efficient.
HEY JUST TALKED TO KEN OR RAO OR WHOEVER
 Wow, had problems with messages everytime I GOOGLED about computer shutting down since McAfee deal. Well great, doing personal things tonight, do not want to show them that, thought needed another puter, this happened before some malware virus, they gave me another POS. Anyhow, we got chatting and I asked him about India, blah, blah, but dang (insert poopy cacca here) I think he was Indian. No kidding, the more we chatted, I bet they are instructed not to hold a real conversation. I worked for an Indian doctor, recognize the accent. I wonder where I really called. I called on my cell phone, only phone I have now, so it better not be overseas. Wow. He was talking about Obama helping us, blah, blah, blah. I am niave a lot, it took a while, but he was our enemy! This stinks
I also talked to payroll and they
are the ones who told me it was a live check. It is not direct deposit.
Sorry to hear that, have you talked to your
supervisor (or do you even have one in this MQ mess)? I am relatively certain my accounts won't be changed, if so then I will have another issue to deal with. I'm hoping for the best cause I REALLY hate to change jobs, but I'm not really expecting it!! I sympathize/empathize with you!! I have heard Transcription Solutions is supposed to be a pretty good company, they usually have an ad on the board. I will be thinking of you.
I have talked to their recruiter and liked her a lot. sm
I would like more information though as the archives give me a very mixed impression. My email is above. I just do not want to make a move without knowing that it will be better, not the same or worse. Right now, I am with MQ.
Thank you.
Have you talked with your supervisor?
Every national I've ever worked for has assigned me a secondary or tertiary account so I never run out of work.
I talked to this really nice guy
I now wish I would have wrote his name down. They let me set up a plan, but I had to agree to the amount they set for me to pay each month, which is high for me, but at least I know it will be gone in 5 years, well now 4.
yes, I have talked with support
and they had tried it on several computers with vista and there were a few minor gliches but it caused problems. The place where I purchased it will offer me 3/4 credit or full credit (waiting to hear the final word) towards a software purchase if I need it. It is a dell so they can do all the work once I am able to connect to the internet after installing the CD software. the company I am looking to go with says that it might be compatable next month with vista (my luck) but I don't want to miss the boat of getting a position. The company though will let me know what they think the best thing is to do. Always something to think about...
Talked about many times
There are ups and downs to both sides. I have my own accounts have been doing it for 20+ years -- cannot believe it. Start small even with tapes, I still do nothing but tapes, and printing and delivery. I have small clinics, two doctor clinics, 3 of them. I do not charge as much as the others but I charge gross line and so I think it all works out to be about the same. I can make up to $50 to $75 an hour at times. But average $40. That includes throwing in the time for printing and delivering so that is my average. My accounts hae been with me for 8 to 20 years. I stay with the tapes as it is easier to not be undercut. But again start small, send out flyers, brochures to doctors, clinics, podistrists, psychologists, chiropractors, etc. You have to be persistent. How many people look at a house before there is an offer. I used to do mailings about every 3 to 6 months when looking for a new account as you have to be at the right place at the right time when they need someone. Cons --But then remember, there is no one to take your place when you are sick or your child is sick so do not over extend. They might be understanding the first time but when it happens often, they are not. Vacations need to be planned out, I take a couple of long weekends, 4-5 days rather than a week at a time. It is hard to get someone to cover and be dependable. It is your name and reputation out there. Your work will always be there in your home, sometimes you just want to run away from it. But the pros are there also. You can make good money, you can make your own hours as long as the work gets done. It takes time and persistence and start out small so you can build a good reputation. Good luck.
I talked to my chiropractor (sm)
and he said that new graduates (probably medical school ones also) are being told that Medicare/Medicaid won't pay for claims that aren't EMR genrated by 2014 and as early as 2009. Thus several new doctors are starting right off the bat with this type of program.
EMR is a fact of life, the touch screen programs are being touted highly for doctors who perform the same type of procedures over and over and several hospitals and large clinics are making the switch.
I woke up this morning and decided to go back to school and finish getting nursing degree. I don't think it's too far-fetched to be realistically concerned about MT being phased out.
I'm the one who talked to him (see message)
Well, emailed back and forth with him actually, and he told me he needed a GROUP that could commit to 5000 lines/day.
He apologized in his email to me for any confusion he caused by posting on this board. I don't think he realized the Job Seeker's Board is for individuals seeking positions and not for MTSOs seeking clients.
Have you talked to soldiers who have been in Iraq?
I have. I was told that we definitely needed to be in Iraq, that the job was far from being done. I was also told that our soldiers would be in less danger now if the U.N. were not imposing so many restrictions on what they have been able to do. The technology used to protect them costs money, yet we want to yah-yah over what is being spent. Wars are horrible, but they will always be a reality. I will not even argue about whether what Bush is doing is the best that can be done, but I know there are more minds working on the problem than just his, and we do not know, and probably will never know what is really going on. We only know what the media lets us know, and how reliable is that?
In the letter sent out by MQ it talked about the new pay plan for SEs and also a
 comprehensive benefit package. I thought legally self employed were not allowed by law to be offered benefits. MQ had started a benefit package with health insurance many years ago long before Philips and were told by the government to stop because it is not allowed by law. Does anyone have any thoughts on what this means. I personally prefer buying my own health insurance etc and not tying it to how many lines need to be typed to keep insured with the ups and downs of work all the time.
If you talked to payroll, they must have told you what it was for. What was it for? nm.
nm.
talked to an atty about the MQ checks
Nope, go ahead and cash them as I already have. If they had anything to do with ANY kind of settlement, it would clearly have to say so. It just says adjustment, period. He also said that since the class actions go over many different platforms dating back before the days of DQS, no way it could be a settlement.
Go shopping he told me, it does not state anywhere it's a settelment. He says just like any other legal document, "by signing the below or cashing this, you are giving up your right to yada yada yada.
Ditto. Just talked about this yesterday
children spending way too much time indoors online, not active.
I had this happen too! Even talked to the guy on the phone...
He tells me he'll have me test. Never sends the test. Calls me again says he'll have me test the next day. Again, no test. Haven't heard from him since. Wouldn't test for him even if I do.  Wasted 2 days that I could have worked waiting on someone, who couldn't keep their word.
I talked to my supe and she said the same thing.
She then said that some people can make 1800 lines a day on that account so it can be done but I guess not by me. I have to work from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. to get it all in and I do not want to have to work like that. Too much computer time makes me cranky.
yuppers -- and that she'd talked to the person and would do so again (sm)
It took me a while to realize that particular supervisor quite simply lied ... often ... about things great and small ... she even lied about me ...
I've found this business is full of "special" friends, special cases ... I do my best not to notice or care any more.
I talked with our tech people before
deciding to do this and they told me to just go in on the website and download them and if I had trouble to let them know.
Have you talked to Extext support? sm
All of the help in this thread is geared to you working in Word alone, not in a platform. You need somebody with experience in Extext to help you.
I talked to H about it and he basically said the same thing.
The day is not over yet. LOL.
Should I call this Detective? I talked to her by e-mail just the other day
I haven't been on the board in a few days and was shocked to see this post. I had some contact with her, but didn't purchase her merchandise.
Should I be calling this detective for such casual dealings?
Okay, talked to a tech support guy at my office and
Medquist switched the Imail system to web-based, partly to help cut down on virus transfer, and now it is a mess and thousands of employees are trying to access their mail at once on the same system (I still haven't been able to get on). He wasn't too happy about it and hopes that either they will figure out a solution to this or change it back to the old Imail.
My husband has talked to them, it has improved some but they still do it....so it stays as it is - n
