DQS was the best hands down--sm

Posted By: fiddlestix on 2009-02-09
In Reply to: How is the sound on DQS? sm. - Curious DQS

I worked on DQS for 6 or 7 years with MQ.  I never had a problem with sound quality unless the dictator was doing something to mess with it, i.e. cell phone, not holding the phone up to his mouth, holding the phone too close.


I have also read complaints on this board about the sound quality with other companies, and I know that 1 company in particular handles the MQ overflow.  I think maybe they re-record it or something when they download the work to that company.  I'm not sure, so I would probably stay away from that company. 


Other than that, I think DQS is excellent.  It's definitely built for speed!

Hands Down, it's......
Amphion. I worked for HealthScribe, and as it turned into Spheris, it seemed more and more work went overseas, more and more perks were taken away, and more and more MTs felt like cattle. I admit, I have not had experience with Medware but I've heard good things about them, too. If you want support staff that supports and genuinely listens and cares, then Amphion is the place to be. Amphion pays higher cpl too, for experienced MTs.
Please do. They need your hands!!

Transtech hands down
:)
wow...you definitely have your hands full...
I have a 2-year-old daughter at home with me while my 9-year-old son is in school...she is fairly good about playing by me, et cetera, so really I think I have it easy as far as she is concerned...but I am most productive while she is napping in the late morning...since yours are so little, I would say waking up before they get up in the morning to work, working during nap times and then possibly later on when their father gets home from work so he can help take them off your hands for a bit...good luck...it is hard work but it can be done...
Wow! How are your hands still holding out
typing that much for that many years! After 10 years, my hands are killing me after half a day. I used to be able to do that much, but it hurts too much now.
LOL! Someone has too much time on their hands
I think that is stretching it a bit far. Too funny.

It just doesn't get any better than this. Been an MT for almost 8 years and by far this is the best company I have ever worked for.
Nobody held your hands to the keyboard

I feel like in am in 2nd grade again.
Hands-On Transcription Company

Any information on Hands-On Transcription Company?  Any information greatly appreciated!


Mary K


Transcription Connection hands down.
Logs, logs, more logs, spreadsheets. Everything done manually. Tons of scanned patient lists. Even had to look up addresses so the husband could do the envelopes. Insist you count every report with the Word counter (a ripoff). 1/4 of your day spent on crap not included in your line count.
Any and all info on Hands-On, por favor...(sm)
They are advertising right now and was curious if anyone has any experience working for them.
Anyone know anything about Hands-On Transcription Company? sm...

Anyone heard of Hands-On Transcription?

Yes, I know. Our hands have been tied. I'm sorry for all involved. :( nm

Transtech, hands down. Don't know that much about MQ but was offered a job there when we got out
E-mail if you need more info. 
I have 30 years in and don't make $25K. Hands sm
have taken a beating over the years. The best I ever did was when I was an IC and worked a minimum of 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, 4 hours on Sunday. No social life. No life but MT, really. That was when Clinton was President, all MT work was kept in the USA (tough keeping up with the demand then!), and MT pay was tops.

Nowadays, an MT cannot count on a regular income. So many pitfalls--company buyouts, sellouts, offshoring, lousy technical quality, docs dictating on cellphones, etc.


Hands on Transcription contact
Do you know how I can contact them?
You got that right. Focus has their hands in all kinds of
cookie jars. I'm glad to know this though. Considering a QA position with them.
If you have this much free time on your hands....
In the name of all that is holy, OP, seek professional help NOW.

I got my hands slapped 1 time when my
company even thought I had recommended them, told me they took care of that on their own. Having said that, I would never (underline that never) give the name out to just anyone and I don't know you and know what type work you do? That person then comes back and tells so and so company you recommended them, they are not a good hire and you come out looking bad. I agree with you totally.
thats 'worth' and...EACH above. sorry, dead hands. NM

Ex-employees with too much free time on your hands
We all know who has been posting the negative remarks; ex-employees that have far too much unemployed time on their hands and they spend this free time posting negativity on web sites. Please, seek help, therapy, change your attitude, try to adapt some professionalism and work ethics into your personna, and get on with your miserable life. Your 'sour grapes' attitude is getting so old. Get off of the web sites and get a life.
Can anyone tell me where I can get my hands on sample radiology dictation as well as tell me what
companies would hire someone with no radiology experience.  I really want to go into that particular specialty.  Is the equipment for this field any different than acute care transcription or any other specialty?  What is typically the pay for this specialty?  How much training should I put myself through in order to get hired?  Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
Hands On Transcription does, there is a posting for them on the board.
they are hiring now.
Webmedx hands down. Worked for the MQ for 10 years...sm
Everyone requires 98% on QA. I've been at Webmedx for about a year now and had worked for FutureNet inthe interim. I loved the people at FN. No one loves the people at MQ--new owners. Webmedx is better overall. Although no place is great anymore. Picky? Strange question.
YOG, hands down. Also got some good experience with Lanier.

Hands-On Transcription does the same thing but unsure if they are good or bad...sounds bad though
I was inquring about a job with Hands-On Transcription company.  They did not have any website or physical address.  They had just posted on here.  I had emailed the lady several times.  She told me I could purchase a C-phone from her for 399.00, which I do not have any familiarity with a C-phone (never had to use them in my career as of yet).  Plus before she sent me the paperwork she wanted my name, phone, address, and SS#..I sent that, out of hesitation, and she has never sent paperwork back.  Though she did email me about something else.  I am scared now that maybe I should not have given her the information since I could not find anything on the company.  So, please be careful.  I should have went with my gut instincts....
I am not putting my paycheck into someone else's hands. I worked for a company that had non-Ameri
QA staff doing your QA audits and you were docked accordingly. No thanks. I quit that job when I realized that I was putting my check in their hands. As you noted, there is always a debate and inconsistency even among QA so why take a chance.
It will get better, I hope. Too much time on my hands means too much time on ebay! lol nm
