Accutran Info ....sm
I have worked for AccuTran on and off over the years, supplementing my regular accounts. I have had no complaints whatsoever. I am also a friend of Julie Lawrence, the owner, starting with her when she was just beginning, years ago, and continuing our friendship over the years. Feel free to e-mail me any specific questions you may have, but overall, the dictators have been easy and pay is on time. I have always had a good experience with AccuTran (the one based in Indiana) and never ran out of work when I needed it !
Is there a website for Accutran? Thank you! nm

Global Transcription IS a nice small service, has a good rep. Superior Global has Indian conn-
s
Global Transcription Services is not Superior Global.

I worked for them for a little while several years back. They might have disorganization issues, but they are a local Texas company and to my knowledge do not outsource. The people who own it are super nice, honest people.
Global
This is not the Global that you are talking about - this is a very small company in my area. They hire locally. I appreciated getting the experience, I dislike this man coming to me when he needs help on an in-house position, when he has work that could be done at home.
Global
I always ran out of work and pay was low .... and now everything is VR or going to be VR but nice people.
Which Global? sm
Global InfoSystems or the other Global? If it is Global InfoSystems, they hardly have work, they are liars, and they will lie in your face every chance they get. So you may want to consider that if that is the one you are referring to.
Superior Global
You know - I left there 2 weeks ago. I know from a past experience - this company holds checks. You are one of the lucky ones who if you get your check on-time if they do not bounce. Does anyone know if contractors have any rights? Are they allowed to hold money even if the equipment has been returned?
Superior Global
I have been very happy with this company. The checks arrive on time and they leave me alone and let me do what I do best.
Superior Global
Just wondering if anyone knows anything good or bad about Superior Global - thanks
Superior Global
This company is a waste. First of all - they bounce checks to most of their employees. They say they do not outsource - but they do. The owners run and hide at payroll time -- constantly have their phones shut off, and the insurance is constantly canceled as they do not pay the premiums. Not to mention, they still owe the overseas group greater than 20,000.
Superior Global
I just heard the same story today. They don't pay!
I have never been in a situation where I broke my back typing for 15 days and had to beg for my money. I couldn't think of anything worse, except of course illness.
Superior Global
I completely agree, worked for them. Pay was not on time, typical excuses. I left there in a hurry. There are other jobs where they do pay on time believe me please.
Superior Global
Somebody asked about Superior Global a few weeks ago............the same things were said about not paying on time. This is not just a rumor. This is true...........Please listen or you will be out on the street waiting to get paid by this company............Unless they have changed.
Superior Global
I know that the small company that I was previously employed with lost all of their HCA accounts to Superior Global and most everyone that had worked with me went to work for them. I chose not to, as I was tired of radiology work. From what I hear, these people are happy. They are working on accounts that they have worked on in the past and have plenty of work. I don't know for a fact that they outsource, I just know that my friends are not hurting for work and like the change to Superior from the company we had worked for previously. They also had no compete contracts, but have not been legally pursued by the other company - probably because they lost all their accounts and can't afford to sue anyone now.
Global Transcription
So I'm confused - was the guy from Global or do you like Global?
re: superior global
I received an email from this company in response to an email that I'd sent a long time ago. I did some research on a few different sites and found lots of negatives in regards to pay.
I emailed them back and stated that I was not seeking a position. I later thought about it and decided that I wanted to get the info directly from the source. I emailed the individual and stated that I had read that there were problems with MTs being paid in a timely matter and asked if this was true. I never received a response.
I don't want to work for any company who cannot pay me on time.
Superior Global
I heard they don't pay either!
There is nothing AAMT can do - we are in a global
economy, and the cents per line margin is just so tiny - it really always has been. I remember in the - old days - max anyone was making realistically was 14 to 15 cpl. Its not like it used to be 50 cents a line even. There just is no margin for all this bartering. The entrepreneurs and MTSOs dreamed up the offshoring, and that was that! There is just no sense blaming AAMT - its so much bigger than AAMT. I know how you feel - wasted about the last 5 years being bitter about it. Again, don't join AAMT or whatever their name is, but many of us want to be members. I want to be at the top of my game in this career so that I will not be offshored. There will always be room for the top brains in this industry - whether American, or Indian, or Irish. I have seen offshored transcription, and it is not the joke that most of you would like to think. That's what actually changed my opinion of -- the foreigners -- most of their work is absolutely meticulous and beautiful. I swear, being in QA I can actually get vibes from a report regarding the attitude of the MT. You can just see whether they are top-notch and professional, or sloppy and bitter. There IS a shortage of new talent in my company from the USA - its shocking! I give the offshorers whose work I QA kudos. And believe me, there was no one as angry and disgusted about it than I was. But I tried to be global minded, and it has paid off for me regarding my attitude and my sanity. Its NOT going to go away, and yes, I do embrace it. At this point, I don't care what ethnicity transcribes it, as long as its good quality. And, to date, I have had lots of Indian work in particular pass thru my hands, and I have not experienced the horror that others claim to see. Rather, the horror stuff is churned out by the US MTs, in my particular situation.
pay at Superior Global
Any idea what Superior Global pays for experienced hospital transcriptionists?? 
Superior Global
Pay is low and sometimes late. Not very well organized and many accounts are on Meditech that doesn't allow you to work in Word, then cut and paste into Meditech.
Superior Global sm
I don't think I'm going to go with this company. I found out they don't have direct deposit. I don't like late paychecks and I don't like my check mailed to me. About 10 years ago, I worked as an IC and had my check mailed to me. One time it was mailed to another company instead of to me. It was cashed. Luckily, the company returned the money to me. I don't think I want to do that again.
Thanks for the input. 
Superior Global
The VPN there is very slow. You cannot make any money. You have to jump through a ton of different windows before you even begin to type. I did work for them one day and quit -- they never paid me for what I did either.
Superior Global
I previously worked for them and they were great people. Pay was always on time (direct deposit)
SBC Global is just the addy
It doesn't actually state the job is with SBC Global. I have the same @sbcglobal.net email address.
Superior Global
Anyone have any new info on Superior Global? I was thinking of applying, but can't find any recent info. Thanks!
I don't know, but they are a global company. nm

Global Transcriptions?
Anyone hear of them or work for them? They use StenTel ASP Word based platform. Anyone use that or heard of it?
Thanks!
Superior Global
Anyone working for Superior Global, comments? Steady work? ESLs?
Superior Global seems to have a 1 up from old
.
Superior Global
Low, low pay. Combination of VR and traditional transcription. I work there but am getting out. They pay at the poverty level. An insult to an experienced transcriptionist. I have no idea about Alltype.
What does Superior Global pay for VR on eS? nm
x
VR - Superior global
Cannot remember exactly, but it is somewhere in the 3-4 cent range per line for editing and then if you get anything that requires typing, it is 9 cents a line. I am a little confused myself as to how this actually works. I have been thinking about doing this myself part-time, but I just hear nothing positive about VR. You can email kboudreaux@superiorglobal.com and she can tell you for sure about the money. Good Luck.
About Superior Global
 I was hired and worked there for maybe one month. They really pressured me to get started and once I got hooked up with everything, as I had to buy a different foot pedal, which was not easy to come by -- well then I was ready to start and they had no work to send me. This kept on happening for one week and then I quit. I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden they had no work and would not send me anything. I would never go with this company and highly advise anyone not to waste their time applying. They are very disorganized and promise you work, but then turn their back on you. Thumbs down. 
superior global's different....
Superior Global Solutions does not have direct deposit, BUT my pay checks always arrive at least 2-3 days prior to payday. So, there are some companies out there that do their employees right even without DD.
If you mean Superior Global
I work for them and really like it a lot. I havent found them short of work at all, we are always busy, and they seem to get new accounts every 3-6 months too.
I think the pay is comparable as well - there are those paying more and those paying less.
Superior Global
Thanks for your reply! Can you tell me if health insurance was affordable? I only need to cover myself. Thanks!
Superior Global
I wouldn't waste your time. You will most likely QA reports that were transcribed by Sri Lankan or Indian transcriptionists. The owner bought into an overseas transcription company and is slowly sending all of the accounts overseas to be typed only to have to be completely redone by American QAs. I just lost my job with Superior Global due to them sending the work overseas even after the doctor's office warned them not to. It used to be a great company to work for and the account I was on was a dream but if I were you (or anyone else) I'd stay away from them!
Superior Global
All I can tell you is to RUN FROM THIS COMPANY AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. No work since last Thursday, supv continually lie to you about accounts. A REAL NIGHTMARE
I don't know anything about Superior Global, but
there is lot posted on this board regarding SoftScript and ImedX is Indian owned and run.
Superior Global
RUN from Superior Global, they never have work, and pay is very low, and accounts are ALL ESL, and management is disorganized, corrupt!
Superior Global
Quite some time ago I interviewed with them. The interviewer's lack of business manners and poor grammar were enough to make me run. If they are that unpleasant during an interview, what would they be like to work with?
Ask Superior Global...
what service she is offering. Apparently, they believe she is doing something for them or they wouldn't offer her this opportunity. If you don't like it, don't have anything to do with her company.
DSG or Global - Any advice?
Have offers with both and don't want to decide based only a slight difference in pay. Does anyone have any info (i.e., plenty of work, equipment/platform issues, IT, etc.) they would be willing to share?
Thanks for any help you can provide!!! 
That should be DSG or SUPERIOR GLOBAL....Sorry!!!
Thanks for the info on Global Info Systems, though...I'll keep that in mind!!!
