version they claimed to be so much better etc. I tried it and it was a complete waste of time and money. It does not work like they say and I spent a considerable amount of time with it. IT is the way to go. Much more worth it and so much easier.

Anyone hear or know what's going on at SoftScript? I've been hearing a lot of rumors (or facts, perhaps!). Fill us in....

OMG just saw the latest newsletter - LOL!
LOL LOL
Latest on Amphion?
Hi.  I'm thinking of applying there.  What is the latest on this company?  Do they have a high turnover rate or do they seem to keep employees?  Are you switched around on accounts much?  Do they make you pay for your computer?  How picky are they about keeping schedules?  What is their platform like?  Any info would be appreciated -- don't want to waste my time if they are a bad company.
latest news
You're right. DSG made me absolutely miserable. I finally quit. The lack of organization, the constant changing of the specs for each account, the constant shuffling of which accounts you worked on, now keep a log of all cc's sent per report and send it to operations each day, plus the fluctuations of work available just got to be crazy.
I think this had been a very good company and it's sad that something has gone terribly wrong. They need to step back and look at their management style and their growth, and reassess what's going on. They can't keep experienced MTs or QA people, they are now loaded with very inexperienced MTs. They are in deep waters and need to take notice.
What is the latest with Spheris?
Anybody happy, not happy?  Do they offer statutory?
According to their latest post (elsewhere) she is
She recruits.  It's not her fault they cannot keep people.  Their platform stinks and alot of look-ups are required.  She's got a great job.  Half the time she's never in the office!  lol
Transolutions latest?
Are there happy campers at Transolutions? 
latest TSI info is just another lie

I'm posting on this board and will also post on the main board.  But those of you who have been ripped off by Jayne Mattingly from TSI (Illinois) may have received an email stating she would send us the contact info of her 'partner' who 'seized' the acct.  Well, don't bother calling the phone number of the 'partner' as it has been disconnected.  Weird huh.  Also, it's not a partner..its her attorney who is just going to fool around some more and never pay us.  You could email her and ask for the correct one, but good luck with that.  I saw a post about contacting the attorney general (yeah, apparently other people dont get paid) and I plan on looking into that more and will let you know what i find out.  Also, if you are interested the local newspaper is Herald and Review.  Might be an interesting story for them....would love to read the story Local Businesswoman Pockets $1,000s from a Government Contract and Never Paid the People Doing the Work  I sent a quick note...would probably help if others did.


sorry, but what I see is *latest messages* ,,,sm
not *related messages*, unless yours is showing something different than mine.
Latest on Cardioscribes

I didn't see anything particularly recent in the archives on Cardioscribes and wondered if any current or recent employees would care to share any info about how things are there.  Are most accounts straight typing or VR?  On the overall, how are the dictators and the audio quality?  Is the pay decent and on time? 


Any info anyone would care to share would be greatly appreciated.  Email privately if you prefer.


TIA!!!


 


MDI's latest propaganda
Did anyone else see the latest missive from Dorothy?  It is kind of a rah-rah piece where she is going to have another conference call next week where we can hear the confidence in her voice (yeah, I would be confident, too, if I had just sold my company for 16 mil) and how we are all committed to excellence in our DNA!  Wow.  Perhaps if MDI folds, their officers can all get jobs writing advertising slogans on Madison Avenue.  Meanwhile, no answers to our practical questions.......
Oh, Gawd, if you could only see the latest newsletter
OSI has been the subject of so much discussion, it just does not get any better. LOL LOL

It is actually a joy to work at OSi because it is so ridiculous that there is never a dull moment. I can't believe that she would have the nerve to post another stupid travelog.
$12.50/hr. is their latest fabulous pay scheme.

Whats the latest on this company?
I had heard at one time they were a great company to work for, are they still maintaining that status?
Webmedx-Latest info?
Any recent info on how they are to work for now?  Looking for steady workflow (understand seasonal slumps), is the insurance good/affordable, and what kind of time off do you get?  Any help would be most appreciated.  Thanks!
Latest excuse about OSI offshoring
Offshore labor is used only for accounts that have insisted that we provide an offshore solution to their transcription needs.

No sane MT would ever believe that a hospital has insisted on offshore MTs. They may have asked for lower rates and in order to land the account OSi itself insisted on using offshore labor.

I have known people who worked for the facilities where work is offshored and THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW IT IS OFFSHORED.
Oops, meant latest nm
 
Need latest info on SoftScript.
Need info on working conditions, platform, pay, benes, etc. TIA
Download the latest version of

If the questionnaire you have to fill out, is given by the company, ask them what's wrong.

Focus Infomatics - Latest word on them?

Is there plenty of work?  Is it more VR with MT typing the whole report and getting paid at that rate?


Any latest news on Davis Transcription?
They tried to rehire me back last month and I have not heard a word from them.  Heard they got bought out by another company which does not surprise me at all.  Any latest news on this crazy company?
Any latest info on Davis Transcription?

Didn't you just LOVE the latest TT email?

Congratulating us for getting all the work caught up last night and pointing out we weren't EVEN OFFERED A BONUS.  Nice.  Yes, those of us at TT are so desparate for work that when it finally shows up, we don't need a bonus to work our fingers to the bone and those in Management crow about it. 


Made me throw up a bit in my mouth. 


Didn't you hear the latest? They are wanting everyone to submit a name ...sm
change through the local chapters to be able to include everyone.

Who invited the Indians anyway???
The latest large incentive they're talking about is...sm
for the BeyondTXT editing program and details were given to everyone working on that platform. Other incentives are for various accounts at various times and details are provided by the ROM for those accounts as those incentives are put into place. The holiday incentive is for everyone, MDI as well as Transcend employees. This is for 3 cpl for all lines transcribed on the 6 national holidays as long as you meet the criteria outlined in the policy. If you do not have a copy of this and would like to receive it, e-mail me and I'll be happy to send it to you.
Latest, related, same difference. Copy and pasted.

What I just bought
Go to stedmans.com and get the AAMT Book of Style and also the Stedman's Spellchecker CD-ROM. They will bill you for these, and you will be happy that you bought them! You will also love working at home if you can pace yourself and refuse to be distracted, especially with the price of gasoline as it is.
Is all of this because when MQ bought YOG SM
they continued to pay the MT's what they were receiving at YOG, which was more than MT's at MQ made? Now everyone will be making the same amount or less?

I don't work for MQ, so I don't know, this is just what I gathered talking to friends.
They were bought out by MQ. NM

This is the co that was bought by the guy from ddi
that left when MQ bought them
Well, I bought one
and got the reimbursement. I work at home, but I still drive.
Bought it new. It is an HP.
 
I was with the co they bought and we had sm

a nice situation.  Here comes the CEO promising us we were going to know every day how much we're valued, how important we are.  Not so.  For the first 6 months it was okay, hard to get used to all the management we suddenly had, but then things started going downhill.  Then the push with the VR.  Seems to me that most of our work is going to be VR work and they're probably aware they pay more than the other companies - so it will not surprise me at all if they take that away now.


I hate these town hall calls, They never contain anything good for the people who are doing the grunt work.


HS bought out by Spheris
I was working for Healthscribe when Spheris bought them out; I have to say that I have had nothing but a positive experience with them thus far.  We don't seem to be micromanaged; quite the contrary.  I can get up and walk around to stretch my legs and at times am gone for 20 minutes or so and no one calls me or e-mails me.  Communication is wonderful from my supervisor on up to management.  The only downside is that they are so short-staffed that there is mandatory overtime for the radiology accounts so if you want to make $$$, this would be the place to go.  Hope this is helpful. 
I believe Transcend bought MDI?

Duh, they bought Heartland...

When we bought our van last year,
But the cost was $10,000 higher than the Toyota. We're not talking a small amount here - $10,000 difference (more if we would have added the extras to the Dodge, that were standard on the Toyota). As soon as the prices of the American cars start coming down, people will buy them. Right now - it's more expensive to buy American, with worse quality and no standard features - everything is extra. Very disappointing and COSTLY.

According to my dictionary transcriber is a person. It only takes a second to look it up.
Do you think that MDI is the same since they were bought by Transcend? sm
I have thought of going back (left a few years ago and took a few years off after having twins nine months after another baby) but I am worried about that. I have a friend who works there and she is complaining a lot, but she tends to be a complainer so I am not sure what to do.

I also was on clinic notes and prefer radiology. Maybe they are doing more rad. I do remember seeing that they were paying a sign-on bonus.

I am just looking for some answers before I make the wrong move.
SPI bought CyMed....US MTs look out....
They will tell you not to worry.....all the while transitioning your job to an MT in India or Manila.    Get out while you can!
