NEMT, Inc.
Has anyone worked for or does anyone currently work for New England Medical Transcription, Inc.? I am looking for information on this company regarding pros/cons. 
I used to work for NEMT
not for very long, though. Unfortunately I found I didn't have enough time to devote to working for them as I thought I would be when I was first hired. They were actually really good about it. I was an IC, but there were days when I didn't have time to work because of other work commitments or I didn't have any work (I worked very late nights/early mornings). I was never able to get comfortable with the doctors so I made very little money. Now I work my full-time job as well as 2 part-time general transcription jobs where I can work p.r.n. with no set schedule. They email me work they have, and if I have time I take it, and if not I can decline. The TAT is 3-5 days, sometimes longer so I find that works out really well for me.
NEMT pays weekly. nm
LinK don't you work for NEMT? You posted on here once saying you did?
Just curious?
For CURIOUS: You are not curious, you are paranoid and a sociopath
Are you referring to the sentence
'And HOW to you put a marker?'
where I typed a 't' instead of a 'd'?
It was just a TYPO!
I am an American MT!
It is so pitiful how PARANOID SOME American MTs have become, ESPECIALLY THE OLD ONES, fearing for their jobs and being afraid of getting the boot.
Trying to be 'expert linguists,' sniffing out various dialects, detecting some Indian hints, whereas they most probably live in rural areas or in cities with a population of 1,000 inhabitants.
So sad, so sad, what has become of the MTing profession?
Now, CURIOUS, start nitpicking my post.
LOCATION

Live in Oregon and I am cheap, cheap compared to others in the area.

LA Location
Gray is in south LA between Houma and Thibodaux, south east, I think, from where you are. About 1 hour and 15 minutes SW of NOLA.

That is what it boils down to. Here in the Pacific Northwest (of course it depends on how much experience you have), experienced hospital MTs are paid at an average rate of $15-23 per hour.
Location
It is in Phoenix AZ. Just wanted to know if anyone on here would have any info on this company. I am applying.
Is this right? (location of JR in name): DOE, JOHN JR ? Thanks for your help. NM
it really depends on your location
I live in a cheap midwestern state with traditionally lower hourly wages, and I work for a county hospital, so compare accordingly.
I make 15.00/hr base pay plus 1.50/hr shift differential plus between 1.50 and 2.00/hr production bonus.

home office location-sm
I will take another look at another location for my office but I do like it where it is because it is handy for me (when there is no visitors), convenient to the kitchen, bathroom (I only have1), and I can start the evening meal and still work, etc. Why can't anything be easy?
Location does make a difference . . .
I should have mentioned that I am in a large metro area. But I do still think you deserve a raise ;).
Seriously, I just think that is awfully low for ANY area. I don't know how many lines you average per page, though.
Now, I have seen radiology paying in the range of $1-2 per page, but this was still not what the office was paying, but was what the Transcriptionist was being paid by the middle man.
One other thought that may seem to contradict my previous thoughts . . . you do not want to price yourself out of a job or have too much of an increase too quickly, depending, of course, on how important this account is to your livelihood, and any raise at all is better than none.
Good luck!

location: worldwide (red flag!)
compensation: $50 (red flag!), is it per page, per hour, per day... as i understand it, craig's list is to sell items to local parties. It is not where i would look for, or respond to a job from.

Price and location of having a website made?
I have been a MT for 12 years, and I now have 2 Independant Contractors working under me. I believe I am reaching the point of needing a website, and I would really like a way for my clients to upload their .dss voice files through my website. Anyone know where I should begin looking or what I can expect to pay?
Call the news station in your location
who handles this sort of complaint. Once you contact the media, you will be paid immediately. Good Luck!!!
It varies as to location and what docs currently pay in your area. nm

Free long distance. What is the location?nm

need online file storage location
We transfer our files back and forth via email and very frequently the clinic is "missing completed" files which we have sent them. This is beginning to take up way too much time to look up and resend.
I need an online storage site where us transcriptionists (3) can send a copy of finished work and also the clinic receptionsist can also access to look for "missing files." (Preferably free or low priced) Any ideas?? Thanks. Free
depends on location, I know someone who lost a local account - sm
in Woodbridge, VA, was charging .12 a line (60 character line), got underbid and lost it after having had it for years. Now in order to get more but look less, she bids at .10 a line but a 50 char. line....comes out to .13 if a 65 cpl. You can't get much over .10 around here on your own which really stinks, or do some fancy accounting which in this case works.
..in an easy to find location like your Desktop or a certain file. nm

i think it varies from company to company and/or location
curious MT
Trust me you should hope that VR does not catch on too quickly! It is very intense work, and you get paid squat for doing it! And you still have to type either when the voice is not recognized, ie, as in when the dictators are residents and just coming in, and you get paid the measy sum to edit reports that require more transcription than editing, so far there is yet a formual to distinguish between this! So count your blessings that VR is not making its wave across Amercia with the MT's until everyone catches on to the fact that it is not "easy money" and we need to be paid exactly the same amount of money whether we transcribe or whether we do VR. Or the companpy uses some formula you need to be a rocket scientist to figure out! Whether for personal use or for business use VR still needs to go back in the closet from whence it came! Or the Nationals need to pay us a living wage to do the editing if the clients want VR. Then I'll be more than happy to offer my 20+ years experience up to do as much VR as they want. At the moment those of us that do VR are being grossly taken for granted and our knowledge and experience used without proper compensation, because we were not totally informed about the trials and tribulations of VR and just HOW much work it truly is.
Just curious
Did you contact the MT and try to find out what the problem might be? With a Q.A. score that low (unless you're a comma freak) :) there is no hope. Personally I hate doing Q.A. but I've done it. I recall one MT that had a really low Q.A. I talked to and asked how I might help. Turns out she was a clinic MT (BIG difference) hired to do acute care on, of course, a production basis. She was about to lose everything she owned trying to make it. She ended up moving back in with her parents for a time and today so far as I know, she's a great MT. She had potential, just lacked knowledge. I think Q.A. has to realize that less than qualified MTs are hired routinely and this is not their fault.
Just curious, but
...how would you know what your company has to pay? In my experience, turnaround penalties were known by the account managers and senior management. It's a contractual detail, not public knowledge or something to be shared with transcriptionists. Then again, maybe you are in contracts, or account management, or maybe you are the CFO or COO. However, if all of your accounts truly incur no penalties, you should be buying lotto tickets, and please share the numbers with all of your friends here on MT Stars.
And yes, I've been in account management and senior management. It's not a pretty place. 
Just curious
ditto your thoughts!
Just curious, but how old are you?
I barely remember Beatles.
Just Curious
What is it that makes the job so difficult for someone with as much experience as you have as an MT? I have thought about making the switch myself, and was just wondering.
just curious
Why is that there are 3-5 pages of whining about MQ and having no work and only 5-6 hits to tips on how to improve skills. Why waste time writing these "open letters" and add to your Expanders or buy an Expander or ask for tips. No one, not even MQ, owes anyone anything. You have to make a way for yourself. 1200 lines per day is level I work. My goodness, get a grip. I think they are trying to tell you all something............They need production to stay AFLOAT.....May be the work is going to MTs who are grateful to have a job.
I'm curious too.
I've been with MQ for 2 months now but we have had them begging us for overtime, offering lots of incentives and stuff. We haven't even come close to running out.
I'll be waiting to see answers though!
Just curious
so, are you going to stop the fat and ugly stuff or not?
I would be curious to see if many SE's
opt for FT (or PT) employee status because of better benefits.
Benefits were not an issue for me, so it wouldn't be enticing to me but I would be curious as to how many would convert their status if a good enough benefit program was offered. (And what the "good enough" would be defined as for everyone.)
Just curious. Break's over.
Just curious
Where is this crazy Amherst office people are always complaining about?
Now Im curious
What is the condensed version of why people are quitting MQ? You guys could have your own board there is so much conversation! The rest of us seem mute. LOL
Curious.
Does anyone know if having a consistently low body temperature can affect/cause things like: mood, memory, depression, appetite, abdominal pain, fatigue, irritability? Body temp of 96.5-98.1, mostly stays in the 97.5 range at different times of the day. Using a digital therm. in mouth to get readings. Have read about Wilson's syndrome, but have heard that it is not real. Thanks in advance.
I am curious about that, too!

Has anyone sent a resume to alex-med, inc. and heard back from them yet? Thanks
Just curious; are you actually a TH MT or

what about Spheris did you like the most. I am looking for employee status, benefits, equipment furnished, easy platform, available work, etc.
I'm curious...
Why do some companies demand that their MTs know inside and out the rules of the AAMT yet count off if you don't type EXACTLY what the doc says, including such errors as incomplete sentences or "Upper extremities are intact x4" or dictated commas where there isn't supposed to be a comma?
Why does it matter at all if you know the AAMT by heart if you aren't allowed to put the rules to use?
Why why WHY???
AAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!
curious too
How about the easiest too?
Just curious, is you second job as an MT? nm

Just curious...
Are they certain it is the flu? There is a test they can do now to determine if that is in fact what he has. I was just curious because it seems that he should be starting to feel better after 5 days if it's the flu. I had a flu test last week for similar symptoms, but that wasn't it so even though my strep test was also negative they treated me for strep anyway and I'm all better now.
Just curious...what do YOU think would
Maybe this person is thinking something similar about you...that they have employed you for all these years and now you are leaving. I am a small MTSO and have had a couple of people resign. One of them did not give a reason. I did not ask why. I figured if she wanted me to know why she would have told me.
just curious
Just curious if any of you who post about being shocked or disappointed even vote? I used to until Mandisa went and now I don't really care. As far as Kellie, I think the only reason she is getting through is because she is promoted on votefortheworst.com, according to the web site is a major fake.
Just curious
Have any of y'all done the court reporting course? I'm thinking about doing that since I think it *should* make me speedier as an MT as well, but not sure how it would work.
Just curious
What business are you thinking about getting into, can only see myself in transcription for a few more years myself, please share.
