Before you give up call your state...sm
insurance regulatory office and explain the situation to them. They can tell you if the company you're dealing with is doing things legitimately or not, and if they're trying to low-ball you they'll make them behave.
My suggestion is to call the Labor Board for your state. SM
If you are working in a hospital and you have to physically be there, I think the law states they must pay you an hourly wage. I think they're trying to screw the MTs.
Call your state insurance comm. office
In some states, they cannot make you take out these insurance policies unless you want them or unless you don't have insurance on something that might be collateral for your loan (i.e. an automobile). Are you saying the insurance alone was $2000+ or the entire balance? That question is really NOMB, but I ask because if it is simply the insurance premium cost, I would think you could find such at a much less expensive rate going with a private insurer. I'm an IC and I have disability as well as $250,000 of life insurance on me and the DH and $50,000 on the three kids and I don't pay $2000 per year for all of that. If they coerced you into taking out these policies, you should be able to cancel them. In my state, I have three business days to cancel a contact or any part thereof. Check with your state insurance commissioner's office. Good luck.
She needs to call her State Attorney General's office and the police.
She has been scammed. She'll be lucky if they don't continue drawing off her account or do identity theft since she gave out her private information.
legacy MTS platform
Does anyone work on legacy MTs platform or know who uses it?
shrub says he doesn't know what his legacy will be...
because he'll be dead. Well this is one of his legacies...a debt that will probably rip this country to its knees. If this war doesn't, the debt will!!!
Work for a company in a state that has no state income tax
I think there are 3 or 4 out there (Florida, Texas, and a few others.) Then you really avoid the tax situation.
Name a state and put every company in that state under suspicion.
Tell what the first letter of the company is and every company with that initial will be suspect. I would imagine that everyone who works for that company has received an inquiry from department of labor, so they would all be aware of it.
Why do we persist in setting up companies to be torn down when there is no reason for it. If a company is suspect, then give the name of the company, don't give big hints that cover at least 5 companies, 4 of which may be the best companies to work for, but fall into the category of an alphabetical letter, etc.
Contact your local BBB in your state and in their state if different from yours.

Not mandatory, as you state it depends on your state - sm
or county. Where I am I do not need it; though if I was cutting grass or landscaping I would where I live, makes no sense to me as I am providing a service, but very happy I don't have to have one. We pay personal property tax here and I would have to list all my business related equipment and pay taxes on it every year I was in business. So until I am told otherwise by my county, I will not be getting a business license.
got the "phone call" -- get this, MQ has hired a bunch of telemarketers to call all of us to
we received our "incentive packet." They don't even have the wherewithall to contact us personally. These are temp-agency hired telemarketers sitting around a boiler room making sure we're reading our mail.... told him it don't pertain to me because I've been demoted from FT to SE.... He said, "yes, the letter is vague, but it does pertain to FT as well as SE...." yeah right, we'll see.

On-call requires on-call compensation by law

Some people just CHOOSE to live in DE NILE (DENIAL) and we all see you are ONE OF THOSE.
Some of us CHOOSE to go through life as a REALISTS!
  
Things are different from state to state, but I think
you probably could, if you are actually "laid off." You would have to get a letter from your surgeon regarding your temporary disability status and take to the unemployment office and to Medicaid....but you know how Medicaid works, 1.5 pennies over the income limit, you don't get it. But, as I stated, laws differ from state to state, so you would have to inquire or go on their websites and see what they will approve and what they will not.
If not in your state, try filing in THEIR state. Then they

Each state has different laws. Where I live, if I have clients in the same state I live in, yes I ne
have clients from another state, no I do not need a license. Every state is different. I checked with my attorney and the State Business offices.
Call me, call me anytime.
I'm waiting to hear back on a job. Call me!
Call KS and call your bank. Why ask here?
.
If they don't call you within 15 minutes, you should call them. There
is no excuse for leaving you sitting by a phone all day. At the very least, an e-mail explaining why the delay. If this is the way they train, how do they pay. Do you really want to work for a company who thinks so little of your time?
what state are you in. May be able to tell you nm
:)
Again, I must state...
Why does any state take them in
"we have enough losers of their kind here already, i'm pissed"
WHY? Because your have competition???? As they say, it takes one to know one.
Your just a very sad case if you ask me & probably would be the first to demand it all if it were you
Can you tell us what state they are in?
or the first letter of their name? TIA
state -
Wyoming/Montana.
Did not want to state her as there are men who are MTs also.

What state are you in? Maybe we can help.
you state....
"serving his country" Our military over in Iraq is NOT serving the USA, sorry to speak. I support our soldiers and have several friends and my brother over there serving. But, I am not in support of the war itself or our president who put us there.
In reply to some of the other posts.......I also have friends who got a good education paid for due to their service in the military, so yes it is a reason for many to enlist. I would not encourage my own child to enlist, mostly due to fear that he or she would need to go to war one day and my love for them far outweighs my love for my country. And, I personally don't feel that war is the path God leads us in.....
All the ads do not state exactly what they want....sm
a lot of them do state looking for IC status but most certainly do want to dictate times working and weekends, been there and needless to say refused !!
maybe goes by state.

State
I am in North Carolina, but the this is coming from Illinois. It just sounds like a mess to me. I know you can get incorporated online, but I would rather talk to an attorney first.
Any info on proprietorship would be appreciated. Sounds like more federal, state and county money.
I do all that you state above but I do know - sm
that many don't do this. I have 2 IC jobs, neither has a true QA dept. I am expected to proof my work by relistening, sometimes I do, sometimes I don't, though I do always go over it quickly. My one manager complains a lot about how most of the MTs do not take the time or effort to look up doctor names, or to call her if they have trouble with a name. I have told her a million times it is because (1) they don't care, (2) they won't take the time since they are not getting paid for it. I generally limit myself to 5 minutes, then if I cannot find it I call her later on and she finds it for me and I fill in my blank. Yeah, it is a pain to do and cuts into my bottom line but I do turn in good work and they have no complaints as far as I am concerned anyway. Too many MTs think they are above the little stuff that counts, one more reason for hospitals to outsource to India. At my one IC job, we just got the work stopped from going to India overnight, which is great, now we have more work than we know what to do with and are working our butts off to keep in TAT, but at least we are the ones earning the money; so if I have to be a bit more dilagent in more work it is worth it, and I wish other (more) MTs felt the same.
What state was this in? How's the pay?

Out-of-State
No...you would not be a resident of that state, so therefore, you still have to pay your state taxes. They usually dont care where you do the work as long as it gets done. I travel quite a bit and have my platform on both my desktop and laptop so that I can work wherever I am at the moment.
So, are you going to tell us the state???

Oh, my, again I will state
about the fact your program is not being trained. On the weekends I type mostly ESLs and if I did not have Escription I would pull my eyebrows out 1 by 1 (including the nails on my fingers). You should never have to retype like you are saying, never. Why are you using the so called "hot" keys? You do not have to do this, I don’t, had typed far too long straight to learn a new trick now and do great with the mouse alone. As I press my foot pedal once the actual dictation starts each word is encapsulated in a red box, always lets me know where I am. Get your mouse, give that a try (the companies are not going to fire you because of not using the hot keys) and see if that will alleviate some of the distaste you are having at this time. Wish I knew how to tell you about the sorry reports you are getting but your program is not learning, simple as that.
check out state
Maybe check out state or federal jobs. That is how I started. I was hired with absolutely no experience to work in a clinic for the state. They then sent me to a local college at night and paid for my education. MQ used to hire from transcription schools. I dont know if they still do. I think I read also where Encompass does. I know Chronicle Transcripts used to as I worked there as lead transcriptionist and used to help train newbies. Good luck!
State of the MT industry
Obviously, you work some place that pays very well and you might even have secure employment. If so, that's great. Some of us worked for companies that were sold or sent all their work offshore and we had to take jobs where we could get them. Don't be so quick to judge other peoples' choices. It's true that in some companies, wages are lousy, but do you really think you'd be a fry cook at the clown's over working from a home office? If you are earning great wages and have a good job, I sure hope you're able to help other MTs find something as good as what you've got.
Which state board?
/
Although you state you would never recommend
a company you work for, you are indirectly recommending them when you question a particular MTs experience with that company and go on to state your positive take on it. I believe that MTs' loyalties should to be one another and not the MTSOs, and that we should do everything we can to support and encourage one another. It's not easy these days being an at-home MT, so let's pull together.

What state do you live in?
Here in Texas, all they ever do is talk about it, never do it.
Depends on your state.
In California, 40% of what you bring home needs to be put aside for tax time! :( It's awful.
Around our state the going rate is....sm
10-12 cpl for that same 65 character line for office work, 12-14 cpl for the same 65 character line for hospital work.
That's right! Excellent way to state that!
Even at 8 cents a line you can make $20 an hour with just 250 lines in an hour.
There's 2. Got the contact name or the state? nm
