he is not American on what was an American site
What we post, jobs posted, and those who are posting jobs have no way of knowing it is off shore because he is hiding it - what a great way to get more of our jobs - not sure why this does not bother you. But as an American it bothers me
Diskriter
Anyone out there working as a hospital employee for Diskriter? There is an ad on MTJobs for a hospital in Florida. Any info appreciated. 
Diskriter
Hello! I gave them 2 weeks worth of work, and they did not send out the checks on time. I got my check 1-1/2 weeks late - and then only because I complained until they sent it via UPS. I can't work for free, or afford to get paid late, so I quit. I would test for ProScript if they are hiring currently - they are a GREAT company to work for : )
Diskriter
I was working for the hospital itself, but through Diskriter - I was just really upset because I didn't get paid on time - that is really important!
Diskriter
Laura, I just tested for this company and was hired, but had to defer due to unexpected health problems with my mom. I told them I would be calling them back in about 3-5 weeks. I am skeptical now?? They appeared to be a great company? Did you only work for them 2 weeks?? Curious for more information.
Thanks
Diskriter
Hello. Well, I didn't mean to make you nervous, but that really upset me that they did not pay on time. The lady that hired me said it was due to some error with getting the paperwork in - in their defense I will say that maybe it doesn't happen all the time, as she said, and that was a one time thing. At any rate, I chose not to take the chance that it might happen again; so, yes, I only worked for them for 2 weeks. Maybe someone that worked for them longer could tell you if that ever happens to them. There are a few companies out there that do not pay on time - I just wasn't willing to take the chance on them since it happened with my very first check. I sure hope it works out for you! Let me know if I can help.

Diskriter
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am glad I took the time to read this message board. I just applied at Diskriter, tested and was offered a job. She said they had 5 positions open, now I know why. Does not sound like a company I want to work for. On another note, your complaints about putting D.O. instead of M.D. is really important. The doctor has worked hard for that title, we were told to make sure you have it RIGHT!
Diskriter
Does anyone know how Diskriter is to work for? I have an interview with them tomorrow?
Diskriter?
Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!
We're way behind! Hurry up!
So you sign in to help out and you're out of work in 20 minutes.

I worked for Diskriter for 4-1/2 years. I do not remember having a background check done. In fact, in the years that I have worked remotely, none of my references have been called, (I have asked my references). Things may have changed......
Diskriter
Can anyone tell me about Diskriter? I'm considering applying with them. I have 20+ years experience as a MT and looking for a company that has a Transcriptionist friendly working platform and great pay. Getting a little tired of working extra hours just to make a decent paycheck due to lack of work and a poor transcribing platform. Thanks !!
Diskriter
Not a user friendly platform at all. I worked for them for about 2 weeks and called it quits!! I had to copy/paste demo information, ran out of work all the time, etc. It might be different for each account, but the one that I had was terrible. I asked for additional accounts, which they tell you, you will have a secondary account, but I did not get one. Good luck!! I work for JLG and love their platform. They just recently stopped direct deposit and the checks are mailed now, which is the only complaint that I have.
Diskriter
Thanks for the ino - guess I'll just stay where I am !
try quitting and going to Diskriter - sm
they are hiring, and they have lots of work. I should know, because I've been working weekends and extra hours!
Diskriter is notorious for that - sm
They told me to work the weekend one time because they were "soooo behind and the client was getting angry." I woke up at 5 a.m. on a Saturday morning and sat until 8:30 and waited and waited and waited. Finally a report came up. I worked until 12:30 p.m. and couldn't stand it anymore. I made a whopping $12.00.
Diskriter needs weekend help sm
They just started allowing PT weekend only as an option. Their platform is easy to use. Line rate isn't to bad either because you get more for if you are hired as a weekend only MT.
Diskriter needs help all around - they need transcriptionists for
all shifts, and are finally getting desperate enough to hire PT
Anyone with info. on Diskriter??
Hello! This is my first time to post here on MTstars. I have accepted a position with Diskriter and should be receiving my equipment next week. I just found out about MTstars and I wish I would have found it before. I am currently employed elsewhere right now and need to make more money. I feel like I am typing my fingers to the bone for 8 hours or longer and at the end of my shift only end up with 750 lines, when I need at least 1500 lines per shift or more. I have been transcribing for about 3 years and the first job I had, I could hit 1500 lines, no problem, during my shift. The problem with my current job is that we run out of work (but get paid for standby). I love my insurance and need to keep it. I plan on working both jobs and have absolutley no idea if I will be able to keep up with my family and their activities. I am strongwilled and determined to make money in this business. Not to ramble on......
Thanks for your input. Your opinions are greatly appreciated!

Diskriter questions
Anyone who works for Diskriter. How flexible are they with schedules? I am asking because I work full-time inhouse right now and work every third weekend. On that weekend I get Friday off or another day if I need it. How flexible are they with their part-time hours? I want to get as much information about this as I can before I get myself into something that is not good. I have never worked from home before other than on cassettes and am still getting used to all the lingo for at home transcription. Please anyone with good intentions only. I am doing this as a second job and really want to make sure it works out. 
Work you working for Diskriter

Diskriter needs weekend coverage - nm
no msg
MT week - did anyone employed with Diskriter get
anything for MT week??? Just curious - I didn't, but I see that they gave out an American Express gift cheque.
Hmm. Might you be a Diskriter recruiter or are you thinking

Diskriter Company info
Didn't see this post. Hope it's not up twice! Anyone know any recent info on Diskriter? Thinking about taking a position with this company but not sure about it. Thanks for any help!
Only hospitals and Diskriter do actual sm
background checks where this information would turn up. They also ask on their applications.
I have never been asked when applying for a service. If the question is not asked, then there must not be a prohibition on felons.
Is Diskriter a good company?
I see many ads for Disriter, but relatively few people reading the ad as opposed to the other MTSO posters. Why is this? Anyone work for them? Are they an affilitate of the Q?
Diskriter pays to have equipment returned to them - sm
They call UPS and have it picked up and UPS has the stickers already for you
Diskriter only hires FULL TIME - sorry
no message
Honest opinions on Diskriter needed please - sm
ESLs are no big deal to me. I am working right now but I have been running out of work every day now for over two months. Time to consider a change.
I have checked the archives but nothing more recent than November 2005 is coming up.
No flames please, just honest opinions.
Thanks in advance.
Was this Diskriter? They asked for pix, too, for hospital position. n/m
,
received equipment new to diskriter and to chartscript
I just received my pc and extras from Diskriter yesterday, after a lengthy wait, really ready to get going; however, they also sent a complex Chartscript book and I've never used this platform before. Anyone have any quick notes they can share or can you let me know if it is difficult to learn. Thank you in advance.
They were saying that MT Stars could see (sm)
the message. Supposedly they sent one to an MT using the Reply By Email function and were told not to mention other boards that could be in competition with this one. Since the info was sent as reply by email, they warned that evidently that's not so private here. ??
MT Stars has one

Post on MT Stars
Hi, saw your post. I too am a Spheris employee currently on FMLU time. Found a great company that does not require you to adhere to a schedule; work just has a 24-hour turnaround time. Producing 1100 lines a day is wonderful. I am just starting, but am satisfied so far and learned of this job from another MT in my small town, who has worked for this company for years. They are InHealth Transcription. Carol Scheer is the recruiter. Check out their website. Good Luck!! Let me know how you fair. I haven't been at this but for 10 years, but I am becoming disgruntled also. I would love talking to someone with this much experience.
I second that! Thank you MT Stars for doing the right thing!
Sheri from MT stars
Sheri, I just wanted to let you know that I have not received an e-mail giving me a chance to draw from the gift bag. I made a donation using paypal on December 2nd and have not heard anything. I do have the reference number for verification.
Empty Box from MT Stars
Sad day when someone goes through the mail and takes your gift. I received a tube from MT STARS today and it was empty...This was my gift from the Santa donation. I hope whoever took it really likes the gift.
Dancing with Stars
Yes, I love it. So far, Jerry Rice was my absolute favorite!
addicted to MT Stars
It is not just you. I am constantly checking it as it is a nice diversion. Plus it is great when you need word advice now and then. It is also a good feeling being able to pitch in and guess a word when someone else is stumped. Just like any job--we always wonder what everyone else is doing down the hall.
Thanks MT Stars for the recognition!!!...n/m
