OSi outsources, pay is never on time

spheris outsources also nm..

I agree 100%. Wonder if she outsources her

What a horrible American attitude to have. Perfect sample of why we are all going downhill in a handbasket.


CBAY OUTSOURCES!

SPI outsources and Medical Bazaar does too. nm

Does anyone know of DocuMed outsources overseas? nm

I believe I believe Cymed outsources overseas also...sm
Unfortunately, we are going to continue to be in this same boat as long as medical transcription is outsourced to overseas countries. I used to think it wasn't a big deal (outsourcing), but I can see now that our jobs (and pay) are going to continue to deteriorate as long as outsourcing overseas is in the picture....and it is going to be in the picture for a very, very long time. :-(
It's never been a secret that Transcend outsources.
They are very proud of their overseas partners as they call them. The only reason the work is more steady and not all going there is that a lot of their hospital contracts state that they cannot outsource their work. So I applaud those hospitals because without them taking a stand, we'd be having no work..again. I remember waking up in the morning and finding there is no work and this is because the Indians are opposite us. When it's night for them it is day for us. So technically while we slept, they worked and when we got up, there was nothing left. It still happens on occasions but we have gotten a few new accounts so that helps. Also, whenever they ran out of work, people would quit and that would leave more work for whoever was left. It's just the nature of the business I guess. I've gone elsewhere.
Amphion outsources offshore to Trinidad.

So your saying you're a Bush follower since QT outsources? nm

Do you have proof that JLG outsources offshore? If so, please email the Administrator.

Do you happen to know which companies HUP outsources to other than MQ. I suppose the best thing
would be to call HR but will they give out this information. Not sure who to call at these hospitals.
Every American MT should boycott working for any company that outsources! n/m
GRRRRR!
Sheeple!!! LOL - I agree. I wonder if Germany outsources it citizens work out of the country.

how horrible but Acusis/DRC outsources to India, just what Spheris will do with that easy account. n

When did you apply? Was it this year - just curious before I answer their advertisement.

Does anyone know anything about this company... How they pay???  Anything in general would be helpful... Thanks
Axolotl
I cannot believe that they are still in business. I know that they have an office in Tampa. Not sure how they are doing. Keep doing your research/investigation on this company.

Anyone know about Axolotl QA?

Any info on this company, any feed back please.

When I worked for them a year ago, their typing platform was slooooooooooooow. I am a very fast typist, and I very seldom could reach my line count with them. I had to wait 3 minutes or more (depending on the length of the report)for a report to send to the hospital, and could not start a new report until that one was sent. Spent a lot of time playing Solitaire on my computer. If you are fast, you will be extremely frustrated.
Axolotl

Anyone ever hear of this company?  I am considering and any information appreciated


Thanks


Axolotl
Any info please?  It seems like recently with in the last month or so I read posts by an MT that just started with them and thought things were going great, as far as the system, staff, work, etc.  Anyone please any info?  Thank you.

Health insurance begins 30 days after you start working.

I have two friends that recently went with this company in the past month and they really like it. They have been offering OT every day so there is plenty of work
Axolotl

Any Axolotl employees out there??  Are you happy? 


I am considering accepting an offer from them.  It seems they have a lot to offer.   I am currently with Medware and very, very unhappy with them lately. 


Any advice appreciated.


axolotl
The management staff is very friendly.  Horrible accounts with the world's worst ESLs.  The percentage of ESLs was so high, I highly suspect cherry-picking.  Made less than minimum wage trying to decipher this garbage, with nearly 15 years of experience.  Editors who don't know the difference between affect and effect, yet deign to pick apart your work and leave snide comments.  Is that enough info? 
I also would like to know about Axolotl, please.....sm
I had an interview and would like to know more about this company, before I make a decision. I see there really are no recent posts regarding this company.  Any recent information would be ever so helpful with my decision.  Is the platform slow, how are the incentives, benefits, communication between employees and management, etc.?  Thank you.
Axolotl
I've never worked for them, but have a friend that is starting with them this next week. When I get info from her, I will post it here on the board. I know they pay a referral bonus if you refer someone and then they are hired. That's always a plus. She did say that the pay was above average and more than she is making now which is .11 cpl on an onc account.
Axolotl
Nasty!!!!
Axolotl

 


The company is fully aware of what it means.  If you go to the website, you will see. 


When I hired on, they actually sent me a salamander on a keyring!!  Their name is different because they, as a company, are different than any other!! 


I have transcribed now for 14 years and trust me, I have never had a better employer. 


Their benefits are awesome, their pay is more than competitive and I cannot think of one thing negative about them. 


It's Axolotl - nm

MT25, I've also heard good things about this company.  Could you tell me what Lotus Notes are?  I am thinking about applying with them.  How would you rate the majority of accounts?  Hard to make lines with difficult dictators?  Do you transcribe for several docs or just a select few?  Thanks!


Axolotl

 


Axolotl expects quality and reliable MTs.  Due to the fact, they do not overstaff, it is IMPERATIVE, everyone be there for their scheduled shifts.  They provide OUTSTANDING and affordable benefits, as well as more than competitive pay. 


If you meet the above standards as an MT, then you should apply.  If you don't meet these standards, then you need to find a company who doesn't expect you to produce quality documents and to show up for your shift. 


I have been an MT for 13 years.  Axolotl is better than any company I have ever researched or any employer I have worked for.


If you are looking for former employees who did not meet the above standards, I am sure you can find them.

Does anybody have any information about this company.  I was checking out their website, and it didn't seem too bad.  Is there anybody working for them who can tell us a little about the company such as their line count requirement, is it comparable to MQ, and what they think of this company, etc.  Any information would be helpful.  Thanks in advance.
Axolotl

Does anyone know if Axolotl is hiring?  Everything I'm hearing about them sound really good.  My only concern is that someone posted they only have about 75 employees (kinda small), and if they hire more MTs, the workflow may be low...hmmm.


 


Axolotl MT

I wanted to thank you for all the information.  I am seriously considering applying.  So far, this one appeals the most to me.  I am still trying to decide if I want to make the move; this is something I take very seriously.  It has just been so difficult to make the money at MQ with all the changes; it almost seems intentional on their part to make it more difficult for the MTs so that they don't have to pay out these quarterly bonuses.  I could see having 3 or 4 accounts....that would be ideal, but 13 unfamiliar accounts with specifics to learn for each.....this, I find to be outrageous!!!  With all of this going on, they are driving their MTs (even the veteran MTs) right out the door!  BIG MISTAKE.


Axolotl?????
Does anyone know if Axolotl is strictly IC work?
Axolotl
Actually, I think they only hire employees.
Axolotl

Did you send your resume in and they called you...is that what your saying??


axolotl

I have never worked for Transcend but I have worked for Axolotl now for 2 years.  They are a great company with a good line rate, great benefits and a very user-friendly platform.  In my opinion, you cannot go wrong working for Axolotl!!!


Axolotl
Can someone tell me if they are or are not currently hiring??
Axolotl

It's just what I'm looking for.  Heard a lot of great things about it.  Nice people, etc. Lots of positives!!!!  Sounds like a place to call home.
