They have grown a lot since I started and radiology seems to be what they grow the most in. I know that this month alone, 3 different radiology accounts have started and from what I hear, all are pretty good.

For radiology, Keystrokes is the best. I worked at MQ for 8 years and left in January. sm
Wish I had done it two years ago. Lots of work, easy accounts, great team leads! I am making less per report but more each check because of better account with more work available!
Keystrokes has the best radiology accounts IMO. I have plenty of work and radiology only. nm
I make a good living and rarely run out of work. When I do, it is for a few minutes at a time and usually because the rads have not started early enough. No other complaints!
For radiology, Keystrokes is the way to go. They seem to have the most radiology accounts. sm
I have been very, very busy since starting with them 19 months ago. No complaints at all other than one or two of the radiologists who speak at the speed of light and expect us to be able to transcribe what sounds to be a mouse on a treadmill!
Radiology accounts
I haven't had any problems with my line counts at all. Doing as well or better than I did with Medquist now that I'm used to the doctors.
Do they have Radiology accounts?
If so, do you have contact information for them. TIA
can anyone tell me about the radiology accounts...

under DeVenture and T-C Transcription, and who would be the better of the 2?  I don't need benes---main concern is having enough work (at least majority of the time).  Also the platform and pay.  TY


Does anyone know if Amphion has Radiology accounts? sm
I heard there was a clinic side... does that mean specialty accounts?
How bout radiology accounts?

Worst radiology accounts I ever had - sm
There was more changing screens, adding patient demographics, and typing in yet another screen, that it took longer to set up the report than to type it....awful accounts and sound quality. I hated it.
The two radiology accounts I was hired for
at Transtech immediately disappeared after much difficulty getting set up. Not blaming TT per se but not giving them high marks, either. Would suggest you ask questions to determine if any Radiology position is dependable - stay away from the Powerscribe jobs.

Just my experience so take the above with a grain of salt - others may have all positives..
Does Axolotl have ER or Radiology accounts? (sm)
Flexible schedules?  I saw the insurance info about them posted below and it sounds like a good company.  TIA. 
Does Transtech have ER or Radiology accounts? TIA (nm)

I worked for a temp agency for 3 years..LOVED it. Just worked. No counts, no hassels, GREAT pay..
No benefits at the time.  I even learned pathology while temping (8 months on that assigment).  I loved the variety, the ability to say I'm not available such and such time.  I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I didn't need benefits.
Are the Insight Radiology accounts outsourced
Lately NO work in there!
For Radiology, try Keystrokes. I know they are hiring on one of my accounts. sm
The hospital just hired KS to do their whole department. I think they will be doing their Med/Surg stuff too.
Wmx has acute, clinic, radiology and ER accounts. nm
.
The best place for radiology is by far Keystrokes. There have a lot of rad accounts and sm
I know of a few more that are starting this week and the next few weeks. This would be a good time to check with them. I have worked pretty much everywhere before KS. I have been with them for 2 years now and have steady work, good pay and love my account! My backup accounts are good too but I never have time to work on them.
Lots of work on radiology accounts
And whew, are my hands tired....but I made 5th tier the first week and the top bonus tier this week,
That is only for ortho and clinic, not HIM and radiology and only certain accounts. sm
I am Mon-Fri. I have not worked a weekend in 3 years with the exception of one Saturday because I took off on Monday and switched with someone.
I love Webchart! I do not know of anyone with radiology accounts on it. sm
Can you share?
Information on Keystrokes Radiology Accounts

I would like to hear from anyone who WORKS at Keystrokes doing their radiology accounts and how it is going for them; i.e. pay, enough work, do you get paid per line/per report.  Thanks so much! 


I'm looking too, and I have 20 years in Radiology
:)
I went into a radiology dept. for a few years.
It was good for my self-esteem for one thing, got me up out of bed with the rest of the world, dressed nicely and out of the house with the morning traffic. Mingling with the masses was great also. Was surprised on how much info we can pick up just by chatting with whoever is beside us whereever we are. The office politics is what took the joy out of it for me. Favoritism, unfair distribution of work, etc plus the gossip behind each others back. I tried to keep to myself but some women simply insist on infiltrating your boundaries and if you refuse, are considered not a team member (being a team member is big in the work place these days; in my dept., it was more important that quality/quantity of work, reliability, ethics. I watched one woman get creamed during evaluations because she was a Debbie Downer, a personality trait that she could do nothing about.
Is it easy to get line counts on Precyse radiology accounts?? sm

anyone using dial up with radiology accts, are you getting good line counts?  i've done a search on archives and reading info about the company.  anyone else radiology-wise care to share their experience?


thanks!


I worked on site for many years. I've been doing this for 10 years... sm
I've worked on site, at home, for small MTSOs, for nationals, for hospitals. I've been paid per line, per minute, and per hour. I've been an MT and a QA. I have ALWAYS worked weekends and ALWAYS worked nights for the shift differential because MTs can't survive on 6 or 7 cents a line. At least I can't and I type 105 wpm.

I've BEEN dedicated from day 1, sister, so you are barking up the wrong tree.
Radiology has advanced so much in the last few years even that it has changed a LOT.
s
I work on acute care accounts, so I can't speak for the radiology side. (SM)
The work does look like it's beginning to pick up though for acute care.
Has any worked for QT Medical for radiology? They got an account that I was working sm

on for another company and I want to apply, but cannot find anything about them.  I am currently with Peachtree and am tired of being an IC and I need steady work.  Can you give me any good, bad or other information?  TIA



Not by the line but 1400-1500 radiology reports. 2-1/2 years. nm
nm
they only wanted 2 years of radiology...i dont know why its taking them so long in your case, hope y
/
me too, I have worked for accounts sm
out of the Detroit area and if you think the ESLs aren't around, try doing those accounts! It is unbelievable and most of what they have is ESL, now and in the past, always has been and always will be in that area at least.
I've not worked on those accounts
x
Both and worked on 2 accounts and 2 platforms sm
but I couldn't get any more than 11,0001
I worked on 3 C-phone accounts.
Two of them were very involved, less than 50% ESL, but they were Meditech accounts.   Meditech is a horrible platform.  I posted more info above on your other post from today. 
I left MQ for KS 2 years ago and love it. They have a lot of rad accounts. sm
I make great money even though I took a report pay cut because there is always work!
Can I ask who you worked for previously. It may have been on one of the accounts or companies I
worked for..When I went to work for that one and ended up making $9 an hour, I was so disappointed because I figured since I was a high producer at my other job and made big money plus I had experience and needed no training on the platform I was sure I would be doing well. I am more convinced than ever that they fix the line counts. They have to or there would not be the huge difference. Of note also was that the low paying one was the easiest. The account was a walk in the park so I really thought I'd make a great living as the other job was a lot of ESL etc. Boy, was I in for a shock.
When I worked at TransTech, there was a doctor on one of the accounts sm

who stuttered.  At first, I was really frustrated, but then I also saw it from his side, how frustrating it must be to know what you want to say and then face that challenge.  I do not know about the physician you are referring to, but in the case I am referring to, I do not think the patient record suffered because of the doctor's stuttering.  I just kind of grimaced when I got him.  You would think that people like that, as well as the ESLs who are so challenged they can barely form a sentence, would hire a P.A./N.C. to do their dictating for them.  Go figure.


Sorry you have that to deal with. 


I have been with AccuSTAT WI for 6 years and I wouldn't work anywhere else. The accounts are gre
the MTSO is excellent, very professional and caring. Flexibility and pay is always on time. If you have any questions, please email me directly.
How do you know there is high turnover? The companies I have worked for get new accounts. sm
They hire because of having more work, not because their current MT's are leaving.

Some of the companies hire constantly because of turnover but most do because of growth.

The BS that MQ has done over the past few years has opened up a lot of new business for many good companies and it looks like that will continue for a while until CBay either runs it to the ground or converts all the accounts they possibly can.
I have worked for MDI for 2 years and I
have never gotten a raise. Production incentives????? Never. If you are looking for all the perks, you'd better look somewhere else.
Worked at OSi for over 2 years and they have never
  
I worked for them about 3 years ago
The people were real sweet, but I couldn't pay my bills.  They have a funny pay scale and it changes after 3 months.  Wish you luck.
I have worked there for 2+ years sm
and am happy with the company.  They supply your computer for free, they help with education, everyone is helpful.  There was a slow time for a few months, but it has picked up now.  MT work always has slow times from time to time.  They have hospital accounts that one can work on if one runs out of work, which they pay more for MTs that can work acute care accounts as well as CMTs.
I have worked for them for 2 years and like it.
They have multiple platforms to work on. They have some difficult accounts, but no more than any other company I have worked for. There is always work available as you have secondary accounts and they provide a list of accounts that need extra help daily. Benefits are good, pay is NEVER late, direct deposit.


I worked for them about 2 years ago as IC sm
and they were really nice people to work for. Paid on time and very flexible, too.
I worked for them a few years ago.

I got my feet wet working for them, and I gained some valuable experience.  However, I found that they constantly sent updated notes/templates on how their docs wanted files formatted.  This got to be very time consuming after a while as this seemed to be a weekly occurence.  Of course, that was a few year ago, so they might have come up with a better system.  I also found their pay to be on the low end, and their raises, which you had to put in for, weren't all that great.


 


I worked for them 3-4 years ago and they were
very, very nice. At the time, it was strictly IC status. Don't know what they pay now but I got 7 cents a line. They had radiology, acute care, ER, clinic notes and cardiology. Pay was always on time. Platform was nice, all done over the internet, use your own PC. Never had problems and tech support was great. I would have stayed but needed fulltime with benefits.
I worked there two years ago
And at that time they still gave you all the equipment and paid for down time if you documented it correctly.

I had an okay experience at Transolutions. The people were really nice. What they said in the other threads about receiving huge thick binders on each account is true though, and I did run out of work a few times but they paid me for it.
I worked for her years ago
and in my many years before and many years since, I have never had a worse experience. Pay was by the gross line and I got my money, but I have never known anyone to be as nasty and mean as this person was to me. This is just my experience, but IMO, you would be wise to avoid any dealings with this company.
Probably should have said, I worked for them about 4 years ago, so they may pay a little better now.

I think that's sad. I worked there about 2 years ago and liked it. nm
