Because the platform I am on is slower than the snail in my backyard.

MDI-MD platform is fast, not full of problems like Transcend platform or MDI-FL

On Transcend platform you have to click, click, click all day and still get errors, change screens constantly -  its a nightmare to work in. 


I love the WMX platform. Extremely user friendly and fast. SM
I definitely do not have to enter a bunch of demographics, which is really a plus for me. I love it here, going on one year now!
I work for Fast Chart and sm
just wanted to let everyone know that Instant Text works with the TAe platform. =)
Anybody work for Fast Chart?
Just wondering if anybody has worked for Fast Chart recently and what they think of the company?  Thanks in advance. 
better rate if work fast

You also need to take into consideration the correctness of your work with that speed!


I work for Fast Chart. If you will narrow ... sm
...down your questions, I'll give you my honest opinion. I'm very happy there, but everyone's different, you know? What things are really important to you in a company? If you want to chat live, you can usually find me in the MT Cottage chat room (www.mtcottage.com).

=)
LOL. I read too fast and thought you were contacting her about porn work. nm

You will be hired fast and then wait weeks or months for work...SM
You may be asked to invest in expensive equipment, likely to run out of work regularly and not have your calls returned when you try to contact them. They do pay well but the work is NOT there more than it is, so great pay doesn't mean much. They sell it to you great but they don't deliver.
AMEN TO THAT.. I worry all the time how fast our jobs are dwindling down thanks to work going
to other countries and more companies going to the voice recognition programs. Obviously, they will still need proofreaders and editors for the VR stuff, but not as many people. I feel like someday our jobs will just be gone so yes invest your money into nursing or something. Anything else medical is a win-win situation, just not transcription as a whole.
meant arrogant and including. Typing too fast! Gotta get to work! :)

Pay is always on time, direct deposit, very nice management to work with, and DQS platform, work
load normally busy, but low now because of the summer slow down on my accounts.  Sound an issue on some accounts, but not others.  Overall, wonderful company.
I believe it depends on what platform u work on. I work on
Extext and I love it!!!!! I have not transcribed even part time in years. First night in less than 2 hours hit 300+ lines. Second night a little over 2 hours hit 350+ lines. This is all learning a new system so I find it interesting and fun.
How is this platform to work on?

Is it productive for MTs? Can ShortHand work with it. Thanks for any info


New platform and new work
The new software is just awesome and I hear we have a large hospital starting next week.  Give them a call if you are looking for work.  I can not help you with the other two you mentioned but can wish you good luck with your search.  L.
What platform do you work on?
I really love ExText and I know they do have accounts on that platform.  I did apply and got to the interview stage but then decided to back out because of the bad remarks on this site. I certainly hope I won't be sorry.  How is their cpl rate compared to others? Thanks.
Not very organized. Had more than 1 platform to work on
I had 3 accounts and had to learn new platform for each.  I didn't stay with them very long.  Found a better place.
How is Vianeta platform like to work on?
zz
Which platform do you work on at Medware?

nm


Super platform to work in.
Emdat is by far one of the most user friendly and productive platforms I have used.  MTs working with me have commented on the ease of learning and a great manual coupled with a wonderful tutorial to get you started.  Additionally, it has many features that include automatic log which shows you where you are at any point in the day .. email me if you have any specific questions.
Does anyone work for ProScript? I'd like to know about the platform, please sm
What Expanders does it support? It is difficult to maneuver in and get lines? I have an offer...
Work for them, they use Shorthand and platform sm

is Acuity at least on my particular account.


2003 does not work with their platform
Only 2000 and 2002.
What companies have a decent platform to work on, .

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


I'd like to know the bad platform and which accounts run out of work. I'm supposed to have bac
accounts to work on...Please email me.. I cant afford to work on the Mojave Desert LOL
Ortho MTs? Can I ask which platform you work on and is it productive??
Thanks..
I work on the Scribe platform but there are many other platforms..
just depends on what account you get hired in for. On this particular account, you can look up old reports. We do have part-time employees but I believe they are slowly going away from part-time into full-time.
Doesnt matter how good the platform is without work does it.
:
Staff is great-no work and too many platform issues.
nm
Medware, good platform, plenty of work
I have worked for them almost 3 years now, they are a better than average company and pay on time every other Friday.  Check them out, you will be happy you did.  Kim.
Yet, second company thinks it should work and not mess up other platform (sm)
I will feel better when the actual technician sees about loading it. Not that the recruiters don't know their job, just nervous.

I had others report they are using 1 computer for 2 different companies and maybe having to use a second pedal. Let's hope we are lucky.


Platform is easy to use, and the people are great to work with. sm
I only work there part-time, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.  Good luck on whatever you decide. 
Same experience...awesome to work for, horrible platform..sm
I've been an MT for close to 20 years and am most productive on ER accounts where I can create my own templates and Expanders out the ying yang. After 2 months and the worst line counts of my entire career, I had to move on. I do want to point out that PM does have some of the nicest, most helpful staff I've ever worked for! The platform is the ONLY reason I left.
Does JLG have nice accounts to work on and is their platform user friendly.
:
TT has plenty of work. The platform is super easy to learn and
I'm not having any trouble at all making good line counts doing ESL discharge summaries. Super nice people as well.
great friendly people, IC work, pay so-so (9-1/2 cpl), clumsy platform. nm

Current information on WordZXpressed, how they are to work for, accounts, platform etc.. anyone??

Thanks for any input you may have.


Northeast Transcription, any info? Platform? Work flow? Anything?
x
I work on a great platform, have good QA support and make

a lot more than 8 cpl.  I even have GREAT benefits, which are more than affordable.  There are good companies out there that pays for experience!!!!


I currently work at JLG and love it. Great, user friendly platform.
They leave you alone to type.  Pay on time, never late.  Pretty well organized and good communication.  And they do not offshore!  I be sticking around.   Cubicles 






Transhealth editors? Anyone with information on pay, work schedule, benefits, platform
I would appreciate any information before taking their test without knowing the scoop.  Thanks!
They use Dictaphone EX Text platform. Very user friendly and easy to work on.
It is all strictly internet based. No extra phone lines required. They do reimburse your high speed internet up to I think $40 a month, too.
What in your experience is the most efficient Word-based radiology platform to work on? nm

RE: What in your experience is the most efficient Word-based radiology platform to work on? nm
RadNet
I love it here; easy platform, plenty of work, great communication
@@@
Been there 9 months and LOVE it!!! Plenty of work, good platform, great staff.
I finally found a home.
Easy platform, assigned accounts, always plenty of work. Great OM and boss. nm

RISS is not a platform. RIS stands for Radiology Information System. The platform sm
would be EXText.
Easy platform, PTO if you are employee, production incentive, direct deposit, work flow varies on
different accounts, but usually have enough to keep busy, lots of QA feedback.
Yes, SPi does use this platform....it's a great platform, but not worth working for SPi. nm

Bad Platform. I personally know of 3 MTs who left because of the platform.
If you are like me, the bottom line is wages and what I get in my check. I have never worked for Amphion, but I personally know of 3 MTs who worked part-time at Amphion before quitting their other service to see what Amphion had to offer before it was too late. All 3 quit Amphion and stayed with their other service because of the Amphion platform. Too hard to make any decent lines.

Something to think about.

Here is one post from a couple days back:

Posted By: Amphion on 2005-12-02

To all of us trying our hardest to grab our work when it is available, and then still only make 24 bucks a day because of the garbage platform.

Is Transcend a good company with a good platform to work on. They are advertising.
