I had to test for Keystrokes...have been there for 3 months...love it...
nm
Probably because they love to overhire! We will all be struggling for work in a few months..nm
nm
I love it there...best place I have worked...plenty of work, pay on time, excellent communication...
wonderful supervisors...who could ask for more?
Been there 9 months and LOVE it!!! Plenty of work, good platform, great staff.
I finally found a home.
QT gets my vote! I love it! Gross line pay, on time, 1 account, steady work! Great place!!!! nm

I would love to work for Keystrokes but
I do not have a personal computer with XP and they stated that I needed to supply my own PC with XP.  Once I find a place that I can buy XP at a reasonable price I will apply.
I work for Keystrokes and I love it...

I work for Keystrokes and love it
Great company, good pay, great leads and plenty of work...I have been there for 2-1/2 years
I work for Keystrokes on DocQScribe and love it. sm
I find that my line count is accurate (I pulled a few reports out into word and counted that way). ShortHand works, or I would not be able to type, seriously. I type 1500 lines a day, most days, worst being 700 in the beginning and 2357 being the best. This is 8 hours. I have done more but worked longer than 8 hours those days.

The only thing I was faster on was WP5.1+ with PRD+ but maybe it was just that my fingers were younger :)
Yes -- still at Keystrokes and still love it. :-) I am just looking for extra work. sm

I have worked 2 jobs for almost all of my life, so it is almost 2nd nature.  I think you will find Keystrokes a refreshing change from MQ.  They actually care about your well being and listen to you . They do not overhire.  The benefits are pretty good.  I do not have anything bad to say about them. 


Good luck! 


exactly....all of the people that I know that work for Keystrokes are happy and love their job...
move on if it is not the right fit for you...there are plenty of other companies out there...
I have been there for 8 months now and still love it. sm
My insurance is about the same as with MQ, my rate is a little lower but my paychecks are much higher. I have one account and although it is a difficult one, it is one account and I am used to the doctors and very, very happy.

My pay is always on time and correct.

I was afraid to make a move but am thankful every day that I did!
been there about 6 months and love it!
sounds to me like with all the companies anymore it depends on your supervisor and your accounts. I am very happy at DSG! I am flexible and able to do several accts and have had no problems getting my lines; I also do almost all work types, which I think makes a difference.
good luck!
TransTech and low/no work for months and months _ don't think there are continous holidays LOL

This HORRIBLE low/no work situation has been going on at TT for almost a year now.  You can't convince me it is due to Memorial Day.  Are holidays now assigned in this world to being daily. 


That is an excuse these companies use in these no work situations, but it is due to their OVERHIRING.  Holidays just come on a daily basis, but LOW WORK/NO WORK is happening and has happened going on a year now at TransTech.  Always asking to flex into the middle of the night, EVERY weekend, etc. 


The TT mgmt checks are NEVER affected, tho, so they can continue to HIRE EVERY MT who gives them a call, and create a NO WORK situation for all of us.  The newbie MT's are cheering at first, but then realize that it hit them in the paycheck, too, and very soon it did!!!!!!!


You will love TransHealth. I have been there about 9 months.
Love it
I've been there 2 months now and love it!
So far, it is by far the best national I've worked for.
MDI-Maryland hires SE. Great place! Love it. nm
x
Ha … wouldn't I love that. There'd be a big party at my place this weekend! :-) nm

I'd go with Keystrokes. The best place I have EVER worked for!!

I love Amphion! I've only been there 2 months now....
but am very happy. They are extremely helpful. Any concerns I have had (which have been only minimal things) have been addressed very quickly. A week after I was on my account, I hadn't complained at all, but got an email from my boss that said they had decided that we had to do a little more info screen input so they were adding a 3% differential to my base pay for that account! The benefits are good. I would definitely consider them if I were you.
Been at Keystrokes for 8 months
and I have never been happier with a company. My pay has always been correct and direct deposited on time on the 1st and 15th of every month. I have 2 accounts and have never run out of work. Both of my leads are very easy to get in touch with and usually respond to e-mails right away. As far as the IT department goes, I really am not sure how they are because I have never had any IT issues and have never had to call them. Also, my main reason for going with KS is that they do not offshore any work at all and refuse to do so. I would definitely refer anyone there. Good luck.
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.
There are a lot of people who do and it seems that most love working there. I started 6 months ago
and have no complaints at all. It is refreshing to work for a company that treats employees as individuals, not just a number. I also like that they do not send work offshore and that I only have one main account. I do have 2 back-up accounts, but have never worked on them after training. I am lucky that my main account is very busy, too busy most of the time!
Ditto, Keystrokes is a wonderful company with wonderful people! I love working for Keystrokes!
I am just not making enough money.  They are a great company though, just ask for a back up account.
I hope it's a rumor..I left MQ for KS 3 years ago..I finally found a place I love (sm)
so I hope the rumor is not true!
I've been with Keystrokes for about 7 months, and I am very happy. sm
Pay is accurate and on time, plenty of work most of the time, and the people in management seem to genuinely care about the employees.  My primary account is in Meditech and at first I hated it, but now I do not mind it at all.  Hope this helps.  Good luck. 
My company has been low on work for months and months..sm
Tired of getting the same ol' message that things will pick up.  I remember the days of bonuses, making money and being able to pay my bills!  I am also wondering what is going with these companies not having work.  Is everybody sending work overseas?
Ditto for Keystrokes. The two companies seem very similar. Congratulations on finding a good place
It is nice to know that there are growing companies who treat their employees well. Keystrokes is the closest I have come to YOG and that says a lot!
welcome..you will love it at Keystrokes...

I LOVE Keystrokes!
I just had my second day with KS and LOVE them! In just 6 hours, I was able to do 1600 lines! I have an AWESOME ER account and all of the dictators are so easy! I hope to be there for many years to come!
LOVE Keystrokes!
While I don't type ortho for Keystrokes, I do ER, and I LOVE it. I don't have any ESLs, I always have TONS of work, make excellent money and, most importantly, I am treated like an actual human rather than just some number or just another employee. My lead MT is the best and is always extremely helpful. I also received a welcome card in the mail from the office when I first started. They actually go out of their way to show their MTs that they do care. They are by far the best out there.
Love Keystrokes too
I've been with KS for a little over a month now and love it. I plan on being there for many years to come. I was also offered a job with TT before I went to KS, but was told that the account was over 75% ESL. I have no ESLs on my account with KS :)
Love Keystrokes
I have been there for a month now and love it. My manager is super friendly and helpful, and I always have tons of work. I am on an ER account and I did not have to purchase any equipment. They provided with a Transnet foot pedal, which was all that I needed. My account is awesome and my pay checks have almost doubled since I left my old company (SPI/CyMed) and started working for Keystrokes. I'm sure that they are not a perfect fit for every MT, but I am extremely happy there and hope to be there for many years.
Love Keystrokes
I have never worked for Zylomed, but I do work for Keystrokes and I love it. I have an excellent account and an awesome lead MT. They always pay on time (direct deposit), and I have also found them to be very flexible. The best part is that they do not outsource at all and keep all work in the US. I would recommend them to any MT.
Definitely not Keystrokes! Love it there!
NM
Love Keystrokes
Been there nearly a year now, and I have had nothing but a great experience there. I would recommend them to anyone.
Welcome to Keystrokes...you both will love it!!!
I have been here over a year and I love it...couldn't ask for a better company to work for...
I was hired by the CEO and love my job at Keystrokes. sm
I agree with the lead person in that there is more here than you are telling. Did you not like the account? Did you not have the proper equipment, phone lines, etc? Did you send in your paperwork? Did IS set you up? If so, you were not forgotten by the CEO. After she hired me, I talked to Becky for paperwork, Val for my account and Paul for IS. I have never spoken to Lee again but I am glad that she hired me in the first place. Did you need her to hold your hand? Do you have problems with other companies too?
I have been with Keystrokes for a year now and I love it...
I love my account...my leads are helpful and I have as much work as I want...best move I ever made was coming to work for Keystrokes...Good luck!!!
I love Keystrokes..would recommend them to anyone...
Good luck with your decision...
I have been with Keystrokes for over a year and love it...
nm
Keystrokes is a good one...I love it there...
and only employee positions...
I love working for Keystrokes...
I can't answer the second part of your question because I have been with them for 2 years...but I know they are a stable company and I finally found the perfect fit for me...good luck!!!
I have been at Keystrokes for 2 years and I love it...
I have never experienced or heard of anything such as the OP is claiming...all I know is that Keystrokes is a great place to work for and you were unhappy there let it go and move on...I truly hope you found a better fit for you...and to those that do not like working for Keystrokes, find another job...
Been at Keystrokes for 2-1/2 years and LOVE it!
nm
I have also been at Keystrokes 2-1/2 years and love it...
Great company.
I couldn't work for 6.5 cpl at TTS
.
Can't speak about Webmedex, but I love keystrokes.. sm
Best company by far that I have ever worked for. Steady work, good line counts, good specs, fair QA, on-time pay.
Keystrokes love fest question
It used to be (a couple of years ago) that anytime Keystrokes was on here it was all negative responses and no one had anything good to say.  Now it is a continual gush of admiration.  What changed?  Just curious.
Try applying to Keystrokes...I do ortho for them and I love it...
nm
I feel the same way!!! I love Keystrokes...I have finally found my fit....
I type Ortho and absolutely love it!!!
