Hey Everyone,  I was wondering if any one has recent info about InScribe.  I am thinking of a position with them, but would like to know more.  Please e-mail me or post a reply if you work there or know something.  Thank You!!

Has anyone heard of this company?   I know that they are located in Streetsboro, Ohio but I just wanted some of your feelings on this company before I applied.

Thank you,

Cheryl

Anyone have any information on these folks?  Their benefit list looks really good. 

5 year olds learning to play soccer?  The ball is in play and no matter what the coahes say ALL the kids go running for the ball.  Maybe we are like that, masses of us going from company to company in search of work.  This company has a new account BOOM here we go.  Now it is out.  Let's go here. 

Yep, I think it is a big game someone is playing with us.  Not a particularly funny one either. 

I have this list.  Are there any others?  I need something A.S.A.P.

Amphion, Charts In Time (CIT), DeVenture, Focus, eTransPlus, Keystrokes, Landmark, Medware (FL), New England Medical Transcription (NEMT), Opti-Script (PA), OSi (GA), Probity, Professional Transcriptions (FL), Rapid, Superior Global, Transcriptions South (FL), Transcription Systems (IL), Transcend, TransTech, and TTS (NH).

Does anyone have any experience with this company; good, bad or indifferent? I believe they are based in Shreveport, LA, but billing invoices go to Jonesville, TX. I did a search on this site, but nothing comes up for this company. Thanks in advance!

I've seen others post their transcription is verbatim, does that also mean their testing is verbatim or is it per BOS?  If per BOS, is it 2nd or 3rd ed?   Any info would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

have employee status, lots of work, and minimal confusion and disorganization?   Can do the big 4 for acute care.

Good or bad?

Thanks in advance.

I absolutely hate ASR, just can't seem to make as much editing as transcribing.

I advertised here a few weeks ago because of an influx of new business. I received a plethora of resumes, and initially chose four people to offer IC positions. One chose not to stay on with us. She picked up some local clients, and was able to charge them more than I could pay. I wished her luck, and we parted professionally, agreeing to do business with each other in the future. A second woman has been wonderful, an asset to our business, and we hope she stays on with us for many, many years. (As have most of the people who have come on board with us.) A third woman clearly did not have the experience she claimed in her resume; her work establishing she had little or no true experience. Should I have checked her references? Yes. But we were in a hurry, and my lead MT did interview her. Suffice it to say the woman spoke a better game than she typed. We let her go. Number four is the one who bothers me the most. He wrote anxiously, desperately wanting the position, and willing to work only one specialty. We tested him, and his work was of sufficient quality for us to bring him on board. We created logins for him, sent him our paperwork, got everything ready. He returned the paperwork to us. We gave him his login information, and assigned him to an account. Next day, no word from him. Next day, no word from him. We had to find somebody else to cover the work (the senior MT who was going to train him on the account ended up doing the work herself). His dilatory behavior did create some TAT issues, but thankfully it is an understanding client, with whom we have a long-standing and good reputation. I wrote him asking him what was up. He wrote back - he had decided not to take the position (which he had already taken by virtue of returning his paperwork). No apologies. No nothing. I wrote back letting him know that he would not be eligible in the future for work with our company. His response? I wouldn't want to work for you anyway. Just as there are good and bad companies out there, so too are there good and bad MTs (or people claiming to be MTs...) In fact, I also received a resume from a woman who had worked for my prior employer - leaving their having deserted her job, attempting to steal and ruining a relationship with a client along the way. I didn't bother to acknowledge receipt of her resume. I merely chuckled at the fact that she did not list the former employer on it. Smart move on her part - but I feel sorry for whoever does end up hiring her. (And folks here have busted her in the past for some of her posts, faking credentials and the like... she appears to suffer from an inability to be honest.) Over the years I've read a lot of stories here about companies treating their employees and/or ICs poorly. I'm sure that some, perhaps even many, do. I just hope that y'all remember that for every bad company, there is very likely a proportionate number of bad MTs. HD Wallen P.S. While our MT side seems sufficiently staffed for the moment, we may need one decent GT to supplement our General Transcription arm.

Hello Everyone,

Does anyone have any information on MD-IT/MedTrans Unlimited in TX? I am considering a position with them and would like some information.

TYVM.

Anyone heard of them??  I can't seem to find much on them.  I tested with them over a month ago, and they called today for an interview tomorrow.  I have no idea what to expect from them, but I do believe they hire IC, and they may pay by the minute.  Part-time is only 200 minutes a week.

I just started working for Sten-Tel this week, and so far I like it.  Things could change though, so I'd like to keep my options open.

RUN, RUN, RUN, AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!

I have been an MT for 20 years and never seen anything like this....I had a major account that went with another service for VR before Thanksgiving 2007....it is now January 13th and I still don't have a primary account...I am reduced to jumping through umpteen different accounts trying to get lines...but OH MY GOSH!! Come January 21, 2008 we will be under a new compensation package...they have dropped the line count from 1200 per day to 800 per day...so far that is all we know.  Don't think they did that for the MTs benefit...I believe the reason they are doing it is because no one is able to get more than that!!!  There is not enough work for the MTs already hired because they have lost so many accounts...I don't understand why they keep advertising for MTs!!  This is the company that brags in articles on the internet about how they are going to take as much business as they can overseas....the MTs in their India facilities are getting CMT training...the American MTs have heard NOTHING!!  I am so hoping that either I will have a new job soon or some other company will buy them out!!!!  STAY AWAY!

I checked the archives and didn't find much except 1 post below asking the same thing.  Does anyone currently work for PRN or recently worked for them? 

Any info would be appreciated.

I am interested in applying to Med-Scribe. I was wondering if there are any current employees or former employees who could tell me their experience good or bad. I currently work for Spheris but I plan on looking at other companies.

Thanks in advance,

Does anyone have any information on this company?  I can't seem to find very much.

the past 15 minutes and have found nothing!! I read somewhere someone said you have to have tough skin to work for MDI-FL.  I wonder what this means! :)

Thanks to anyone with any info on this company. Trying to leave MQ and make some decisions here.  Help out a fellow MT.  Love ya.  LOL

Can anyone please tell me how the health benefits are at Diskriter as I am cosidering employment, but have not got anything from them as to the soundness of their health benefits and the cost for a couple per pay period.  Anything on this will be so helpful in a decision.

I've never really worked as an IC but now am considering PT IC work but honestly doubt I could adhere to a set schedule because I have a FT QA job as an employee.  Are there companies that hire without having one? 

Thanks!
