How is the work load, do you run out often?  Is the company pretty much on the up and up about what they offer in their ads?  Any problems?  Any good experiences?  Please share.

Meridian/Indiana
Any recent info on this company, good and bad, would appreciate hearing.  Thanks
Meridian Healthcare

Meridian Healthcare used to be PTS. I worked for PTS, and we ran out of work a lot. There was very poor communication when I was there.  When work was low, manager wouldn't respond to emails or voice mail.


Hope that helps!

I have been with Meridian for about 6 months now. The account I am on uses MedRite and is a pretty busy hospital account. My pay is good, always right,and always on time. The QA staff is great - I have learned a ton from them.

I have to submit a schedule every week with what I plan to work the following week, but it hasn't been a problem when I need to stray from that.

Overall, I am very happy. The platform is great. The account is fairly easily, though it has a few really tough ESLs, I am getting used to them. I have been able to create a ton of normals, so I am pretty fast. My account requires 12,000 lines a pay period to be eligible for PTO.

Good luck!
Meridian Healthcare

Does anyone currently work for this company or have you worked for them recently?  How is the pay?  Is the work acute care only?  What type of platform do they use?  Is there a minimum line requirement?


Thanks for any info.

Are there any MTs/QA with information about Meridian Healthcare Solutions?  I could not find a website for them and searched the archives and found just a little info.  Interested in the salaried QA position they are hiring for at this time.  Any information would be greatly appreciated, even just a website.  Thanks! 


Meridian Healthcare Services
They had a QA post on MT Jobs.  Thanks!
Meridian Healthcare--Beware
For anyone thinking of taking a job with Meridian, you might want to think twice.  Their server or the hospital server seems to go down nearly all the time, and they don't credit you downtime when this happens for hours on end.  It is very frustrating.  They are also now telling those of us with newer versions of Word 2002 or 2003, and Windows Vista that we need to downgrade our computer software to Word 2000 at our own expense, and if we have any issues, we are basically on our own.  So we have to cross our fingers that everything configures okay if we do this.  Not sure that will solve their issues with the servers constantly going down.  How's that for taking care of your employees?!! I personally am seeking employment elsewhere after putting up with these server issues for over a year.

I have been offered a position with the above company.  I cannot find anything on them since January of 2005.  Does anyone have any recent experience with them??


 


TIA

no, Meridian Healthcare Solutions
Sorry, I should have been more specific. I am looking at a few companies right now and want to get the good, bad and the ugly or indifferent if anyone has any info. It would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance for any info you could share.
Meridian Healthcare Solutions
I work there.  I am quite happy.  My account managers have been very flexible about my schedule, which is important to me.  There are several different accounts and different account managers, so everything may not be equal, but my pay is always right, always on time, and there is usually work.  If there is no work, you are not penalized for not having your quota in.  I wish my work were a little more stimulating (I do clinic work), but there is nothing else for me to complain about.  The issues that are important to me are present at Meridian.  They have been a great company to work for.  I don't think that the MedRite program that some of the accounts use is technologically up to date, but I have seen worse.  From my own experience, I would encourage anybody to work there.  However, I haven't seen things from the QA standpoint, and I certainly haven't been on every account or had every account manager.  If you are good and an account doesn't work out for you, I'm sure they would work with you to find a good fit. 
Meridian HealthCare Solutions
Any info on this company?
do you mean Meridian Healthcare Solutions? (sm)
If so, while I've never worked for them, my mother-in-law has and she was very happy with them. She had to quit due to health reasons, but she did so reluctantly.

The only thing keeping me from trying to get on with them is the fact that their platform doesn't go with Word/Office 2007, which is what I have.
Meridian Healthcare Solutions?

Looking for any current MTs working for Meridian.  I have an interview on Monday and I am thinking about accepting this position, but I do not want to get burned again.  PLEASE!! if you have any information good or bad, work or no work, bad managment or good management, please let me know.


Thanks


Meridian Healthcare Solutions
Current information sought regarding this company.  Pros and cons please.  Thank you.
Anyone care to share info on Meridian HealthCare Solutions?
Is it a good company to work for.  How is the software, is it user-friendly, how is the response from tech, supervisors, QA, etc.    Thanks
Does anyone work in the Louisville/Southern Indiana

area?  If so, do you mind saying where and how you like it?  Thanks.


 


Anyone work for Advanced Medical Transcription out of Indiana?
Do they pay on time?  How is the software.  Do they pay twice a month or every other week?  Any information would be helpful.  Thank you!
Anyone work for Alliance Healthcare? sm

I saw a job opening for radiology with this company and interested in finding out if anyone out there works for them, what you think, what program they use.


Thanks


I used to work for a home healthcare agency and we got
one weeks pay for every year we worked there.   They were a non-profit agency and so to get rid of any profits made during the year we got bonuses.  
FYI - Heads Up - Do not Work For "Ascend Healthcare"

Ascend has got to be the worst place in the universe to work for.  I am begging you, please do not work for them.  They are truly a nightmare company to work for.

Anybody work for Meridian?
Can anybody tell me about Meridian in Indianapolis? - is it a good platform, can you produce well on it, how is technical support, is QA reasonable or do they always have all the right answers, communication among transcriptionists?  All info good and bad would be appreciated.
I currently work for Meridian and really enjoy it
There was only 1 person that I ever had a problem with, and that was only on 1 occasion with a person in QA.   I just chalked it up to a bad day like everyone has.  Other than that, I really haven't come across any problems with the itchy office staff. 
There is 1 in Indiana.

MD-IT South Bend Indiana
Anyone know anything about this company?  I have been an in-house Transcriptionist for the past 14 years.  I was just told today that my job is terminated as of 08/31/07.  They are going with MD-IT, and said that this service is interested in employing all four of the in-house transcriptionist.  Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone familiar with this transcription service?  They pay by the minute, is this good or bad.  I have never been paid by the minute.
Nobody ever posts there, my state anyway, Indiana. nm

So we can sue Indiana for the loss of our jobs?
If the state is funding this thing, then they should be held responsible for any jobs we lose.
Mediscribe of Indiana, NOT MedScribe, confusing, the first one has ....sm
hired me without testing, which seems great, but should I be worried?  I mean, 18 years experience in all phases, but this was so FAST!  Please, can someone tell me about this company, worked there, info would be so appreciated because the contract does not tell me anything that I do not know....recruiter is Tonya.  TIA!
It is in Indiana, and you had to live within driving distance. n/m

The Indiana and KY numbers are routed to India. I do not know how it works, sm

but when they would call from India, the number showed up as a KY or IN number, even though indeed they were in India.


They are basically nice people to deal with.  I am just amazed and a bit outraged that they would lie to people in their ad.  It shows a lack of respect for us as MTs, I think, to try to deceive us in such a manner.


Medscribe in Indiana and Medscript Transcription Service out of Wisconsin
Does anyone know anything about either of these companies?  Also, what does one need to be an IC; that is tax forms, etc. 
SPI Healthcare Doc
I work there now and am very happy. Make a list of questions you have and when the supervisor calls you, make sure you ask them. That way you won't be misinformed by what you read on this board.
Welcome to Healthcare
Healthcare is a 24/7 industry. If you want to work Monday-Friday perhaps you should change jobs.

I heard they only hire ICs for MTs right now but will get employee and benefit package in near future. Payday is 15th and last day of the month. Scheduling is pretty flexible. Everyone I know there is pretty happy. Depends on which account you are assigned to about the extra phone line being needed. Some accts only require 1. Ask the recruiter any questions you might have for further info. Don't rely on this board for everything.
Need info on SPI Healthcare please.
thanks
Presbyterian Healthcare?

My job is obviously losing the Presbyterian Healthcare System account.  This account is affiliated with Novant Health and is located in Charlotte,North Carolina.  Can anyone tell me who picked up this account and where to apply for a job.


 


Thank you


ASCEND HEALTHCARE
They pay 6 cents per line. I am training there in QA, but there are a lot of administrative details...

Any new information on Ascend?  Are they paying their MTs on time now?  TIA.
Healthcare and recession
we have an aging population, I know I'm one of them. Many actually have health benefits and will have Medicare. Healthcare is pretty recessionproof. Some of your slowdown may be due to the economy, but there is undoubtedly some change in management reason also. If people wait to see the doctor, they will not necessarily get better. Clinic work, however, I think will stay busier than acute care until this medical neglect lands people in the hospital.


Ascend Healthcare?
Anyone care to share your experience with this company?
Try Virtua Healthcare. They have a few hospitals -
Marlton and Voorhees, and I'm not sure if there is another one. I know that Diskriter is currently doing their account, but the hospital is also looking to hire transcriptionists.
