any company bayscribe internet based program?

?


Their new program utilizes high speed internet
so you no longer need unlimited LD, just a foot pedal.
Great program!
I would highly recommend the AIM program to anybody! I have finished the AIM program and now I am hired with Allstate working on a great account! I feel like the money I paid to my school was a waste because I learned all from Deb and the AIM program. The 12 weeks flies by and by the end you will feel so much success! The QA is wonderful and they never hesitate to help you if you have any questions. Good luck to you Mary and I wish you the same success that I had through the AIM program!
Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM

Started small; great company. Rapid growth; not so great company
First year I was there was like heaven. Then the big growth spurt when they hired managers from another company (that I had run away from before because of their bad management) and let them kind of take over. Although I have no proof it was as though I got 'bumped' by these new people when they came in and I lost a good account, good manager, etc. My paycheck went down every month lower and lower, and it became harder and harder to make my minimal lines. Having any kind of advocate was nonexistent.

It depends on you and what kind of MT you are. Seems to me there are pretty much 2 types...

Sports like basketball where you have the pros who play with finesse, and then you have street players who think it is all about physical strength, period. More and more the physical strength is winning but the art of the game gets lost more and more...

As in this country where there are almost 2 sides now, those with intellect and thoughtfulness, and those who think the only way to be strong and be a leader is to beat up everyone who does not agree with you...and force your will on others.

Suffice it to say in my opinion WMX changed its philosophy of the way it treated employees and lost its heart when it grew, and it was literally almost overnight...

If you are a mass producer who has no care of what it takes to make money, if you are a 'street fighter' then it would probably be for you because you WILL have to fight for everything. Fight for the right account, fight for lines, fight to be treated fairly, etc. If you appreciate MTing for the art of MTing or have any kind of joy for the profession, my guess is you will not make it there very long...

This is happening all throughout the what used to be called profession. Seems to happening all through everything these days. Humanity and heart are being pushed down to the bottom...
LOL!!! Great reading!! Mentoring program straight to QA at
ewwwwwww!
For a great radiology program, you want Fusion RIS (formerly RIS Logic)
https://www.merge.com/estore/software.aspx

Now THAT'S a nice, quick, simple radiology program that you can use ShortHand with and WinScribe or whatever waveplayer. Ahhhhhhh!


D&L Services offering a great bonus program. Why not,

You made a good choice. The staff is great, program simple. Welcome! nm

Dr. joining an internet company
Anyone out there that can figure this out?  I work for a local physician who has decided to go with the Interest because supposedly it's cheaper.  They state they will charge 7 cpl 65 character.  How can a company charge that little and still pay the MT.  Will the MT make 2 or 3 cpl and who would do that??  Any comments?
Company paid internet
For those of you who do your transcription via internet, does the company you work for reimburse you for your internet cost?  If so, how much? 
You are pathetic! I have a great life, loving family, work for a great company.
You might want to fix that.

You really don't have to shout (angry person), but yes you are wrong!!

That is my last word to you!

I will add that getting a great pay check every other Friday from Medware really puts a huge smile on my face.
You obviously know nothing about the owner or the company. Many accounts are going to internet base
Long distance is not a big deal with digital connections.
Can anyone tell me who a really good SE company is that is solely internet based and are nice to
work for with decent accounts. Thanks much.
No, as shown above which is a company not program....nm
.
oops meant any company use this program
/
This company is the pits! They have the worst program
to work on - supposedly a wonderful automated computerized, integrated with voice recognition, state of the art, etc., that is so far behind the times that you spend 20 minutes trying to just figure out how to do the demographics on each report.

NOTHING is automated. Nothing is uniform.
You get multiple types of reports from multiple accounts to work on, but you have to have the instruction sheets open at all times because there is nothing uniform about which block the date they want for that report goes in (like playing the game where you find the nut shell that the pea is hidden under), so just to be sure you got it in right, put it in all 3. Then make sure you select the right reason that there is a problem on the report. There are probably 20 reasons, several say the same thing, but you better pick the right one (and do not ever suggest they remove the ones you should not use, nor suggest that they only have 1 box to put a date in, or anything else about this program, because it can't be done.) You have to go to a minimum of 5 different screens just to finish the demographic garbage.

The problem is that management has gotten too far away from transcription. They sit in their ivory towers and do not realize how much clerical work the MLS has to do to complete a report. They are not open to any suggestions, always the same old story of we have always done it this way.

Technical support is a total joke. You can sit for hours and never hear a word on how to fix the problem. And when you do hear from them, it is always your fault.

Not sure if they have fixed any of the not-so-automated stuff recently, but I doubt it - they probably just created more boxes for the MLS to complete.

So do yourself a favor and find a different company. I found one that wrote their own program and it is great. You rarely have to do anything with demographics. Everything is quick and easy with good and SENSIBLE keystroke commands (ones you can relate the command to the letter of the alphabet, not something like using control+T to enter a patient name or whatever stupid command Transcend assigned to that field.

Editing is an even bigger joke. The team leads take all the good editing jobs and the MLS is left with the crap. And cherry picking is rampant.
It's a great company -- lots of work and great pay. sm
Web site is www.mditrans.net.  If you need anymore info, feel free to ask. 
AXOLOTL - A GREAT COMPANY WITH GREAT INSURANCE
Axolotl has AWESOME, AFFORDABLE insurance.  Family plan medical and dental costs a little over $300.00 MONTHLY.  They also pay for family plan vision in its entirety.  STD, LTD, 401K with match and flex spending account, great PTO and HOLIDAY pay.  OH and paid downtime in the case you run out of work, which doesn't happen often!!! 
what kind of company
Absolutely and since like personalities mingle you can basically come to your own conclusion about what kind of company considers a person like sheri to RECRUIT??? Either they are pretty desperate or pretty ignorant, well probably both and dont forget they dont ever ever pay on time or never pay at all. dont work for them or their subs. Before you start ask the company if they sub for proveros or you WILL be sorry. ...
Where did you find that kind of company?
Please do tell, need to move on myself.
What kind of a behind-the-times company is this
that thinks they have to train you in person anyway?! LOL.
1 company, kind of 2 divisions, hourly and SM
as far as how much, I'm sure you realize that is something that has to be negotiated and isn't the same for each employee.  I am not even going to give a range because I don't know if the 2 sides pay the same or not.
Kind of risky to praise the company you work for
because somebody who must have gotten burned at some job will jump on and announce that no company can be that good, so we must be lying! That we're really managers or recruiters.

< Sigh >
Great company, great boss....

I use to work there.  The dictators on my account were really good.  They use Emdat/Inscribe.  Pay on 1st and 15th by direct deposit.


It depends on who is offering it, and what kind of work is available. If you posted the company sm
name, we could give more helpful advice.
Great company. I've been recommending this company for a long time.

Their website touts themselves as being an "AMERICAN" family-owned company. Kind of ironic! n

Great little company..I worked there for a short time, IC, and pay always on time, great owner too!
I had good dictators, they use FTP, and I had a 12-hour window to return the work.
Small company GREAT COMPANY

Axolotl is a WONDERFUL company with great benefits and competitive pay.  We have maybe 100 MTs but are growing rapidly.


small to medium company that works in Word or Word-based program - email me. nm

I use both, internet and books, but mostly the internet..nm

Great company!
I am very happy working for MDI. I have worked for them full time for a few years and part time before that. It is a great company to me and it's very easy for me to be able to call and talk to my TL or anyone above her if I have an problems/concerns/questions. There are lots of negative postings about them on this site, but have not had the bad experiences that they have had. My experience has been nothing but positive!!!!
Great company! (sm)
Good pay, good accounts, flexibility, best MTSO I have ever worked for in my 20 years as an MT.  Just started with them a little over a month ago, & couldn't be happier!  IC status only, though, but that's not a problem for me.  Anything else I can tell you, just let me know  
They are a great company!
QA'd their work for a short while, but it was a second job and couldn't keep up working 2 jobs, so quit at JLG.  They are a small, family-like company.  The owner is an MT and has had offers to sell out to the big boys. but she loves her company and her employees and will not sell out.  If you have a chance to work for them, you will not be sorry! 
GREAT company...sm

They are friendly staff as stated, pay is good, but no benefits. But the pay, plenty of available work, and understanding of the company makes up for lack of benefits.  I have had family illness over the past several months and they have been understanding.  I feel bad for not being as dependable as I was when I first started, but they have really hung in there for me, so I am hoping to return the favor and help them out as much as I can. GREAT company.  You cannot go wrong.  I was thinking about looking for another job because they have no benefits, but they are just too good to risk that.  So, never again, will I even think about that.  You will not go wrong with them.  I have been with them almost one year and they are as nice as they were from the beginning!


Great company.
I actually wanted to work for them, but I failed their online quiz.  The question lines and answer boxes were so close together, I am sure I marked the wrong boxes just because it was impossible to differentiate one question from another.  I have been an MT for 18 years.  I knew the answers to every one of those questions, except for maybe 1 or 2 I was confused on.  I don't know if it was timed or not.  If it was timed, maybe that is why I failed.  I did the test in between phone calls.  Good luck with that!
Great company

I have worked with them since the company started and they have been GREAT!!  I can give you names of LOTS of other MTs  that agree.


you will see bad listings about them on here but think about the people that it is from--fired and mad people.


AccuStat pays on time and the people are just great to work with.....I can't express that enough!!!


great company
AccuStat is a great company in my opinion.  They know your name and do not treat you like a number.  Their pay is on time.  Their managers are great and their accounts are good too.  They are simply a great company to work for.
TRS seems to be a great company
I was slated to start with them. I accepted the position and then decided not to go with them because I could not afford to live with the salary offered. I spoke with Kathy after I decided not to take the position and she seems very honest,polite,and interested in the MTs. I did not have a bad experience, I just declined the position because I could not afford to live with the salary offered.
Great company
I have been with Meridian since October. I get wonderful feedback, great QA people. Pay is every 2 weeks and very fair. I am on MedRite and I love it here.
They are a great company sm
Super flexible scheduling, very nice people to work for, and I always have work. I use EX Text, and I personally do about 7000 lines every two weeks. I do not remember what the line requirement is. I do not know if they are hiring, but I am extremely happy here.
Great company.
They are very employee friendly. I know they are going through some management changes, but show me a company that does not. The owner is an excellent person to work for and takes care of his employees as long as you do what is asked. I would recommend it highly if you are offered a position!!
Great company
I have also been there several years. No complaints.
Good QA people. Steady work.
Pay on time. Good people to work with and to work for. I have been to their office and met all the QA people. Have met the owner personally.
great company
s
This a great company. What is the sm
use of saying run, run without giving any other info? It's a waste of a read. I worked for TN and they are wonderful people and always paid on time. The best place I have ever worked. I left due to health reasons.
Great company
I have been with them since March, they are a very fair and honest company to work for.  I have had no problems with them.  Absolutely no complaints here
DSG great company
DSG is a great company to work for--I have been there for a couple years...I believe it must be one of the best!
Great company....

and NO I am NOT management, or recruiting, or anything like that.  I am an MT....been working for them for quite awhile.  They are an excellent fit for me.


Lots of ESLs - yes.  IC only - I think so; check with them about it though.  Direct Deposit - always correct and always on time.  Platform - it is their own and is Word based, so if you are familiar with Word you would be all set.  Managers are very kind and helpful, answer questions almost immediately.  QA - I have seen some posts on this board that were negative about their QA but I really dont have much contact with QA.  I am familiar with my accounts, I do my work, and they leave me alone and put my paycheck in my checking account every other week.  I also like that they do not beg and plead and hound us to death to get work done when it gets backed up.  Yes, they let us know; yes, they send out emails; yes, they say they STILL need help; but there are no phone calls or IMs or *guilt*.  It is just - if you can help, please do, we need you.  Also, the workflow group are great.  They seem to have a handle on their job and do it well.


But no company is perfect.....so......what would be the cons to FN?  Running low on work.  This seems to happen when they are ready to take on new accounts.  It SEEMS that they hire in anticipation of new accounts and put new hires on present accounts until the new accounts start dictating.  Work may be low at those times.  BUT THIS IS ONLY MY IDEA...I dont know if that is what actually happens.  I think the last time I was low on work was, maybe last Spring. 


Also, the work seems to get slow the weekend before we turn in our invoices.  I think MTs are trying to get in their lines for the pay period.  I dont know for sure, of course, but that is MY GUESS.  So what I do is make sure I get my lines in the Friday before the weekend before invoices so that is there is little work that Saturday and Sunday, I can take time off and not sweat it.


It works for me.


What a great company DRC was?

Do you really think they care about the lowly MT who is so offended?  Doubt it.  They're laughing all the way to the bank baby!
