Hi there. I understand wanting any and all information you can get, been there lol. Meditran is a small family owned business located in Odessa, Texas. We were cruising along really good all these years, but then two weeks ago one of our MTs was in a horrible car wreck that killed her husband and critically injured her. She is doing okay now, but as you can imagine unable to work. Well this took out two of our MTs as her mother also worked for us. Then we had one MT whose computer totally crashed. Another MT whose step dad is in the hospital with not much time left. So as you can see we are scrambling. Those of that are working have been completely covered up. The owner is also an MT and has always hired locally. This has not worked out very good for one reason or another. So she asked me to place an online ad and see if we could get some help that way. This is strictly and orthopedic account that we need help with. I have worked for this company for going on four years. My checks have never been late. The owner is very laid back, she is not a nitpicky person, she just wants the work done and done correctly. This account does not go by BOS, they have their own standards, which we would teach you. I hope this helps answer any questions anyone may have and if there are more feel free to email me at RoseMT37@aol.com.

Job Description
I just read this by a poster: No, MTs are NOT supposed to KNOW if a med is generic or brand. HOW COULD WE?
I sat here scratching my head thinking, is this person SERIOUS? Do they TRULY believe that they don't need to know simple things like if a drug name is brand v generic?
I read so many people here dissatisfied with the gig they are doing. Getting fired for no reason. Ticked off at QA when they only had 6-7 errors.
What is it you think and MT *DOES*? The job is to translate the spoken word into an accurate and coherent record.
That's what the job REALLY is. And to take pride in knowing you did just that with the emphasis on ACCURATE.
Yes, the pay sucks for some services. We all have the option to CHOOSE who we work for. If you can't tolerate the pay, then don't take the job.
Your JOB is to produce a chart-ready, accurate medical document.... and yes, Virginia sometimes that means you have to recognize that when the doc says, pulse 142/90, that the report needs flagged; and it might mean you have to look up new cancer drugs or whether or not something is brand or generic. If you're doing your JOB, then you learn what's brand or not and don't have to look it up; you know just where to go to grab oncology studies; you know what sites/references are accurate for surgical terms. You DON'T demand that it's not your JOB to KNOW how to make an accurate medical document.
And if your retort is that services pay crap so you give them crap? Well then please, PLEASE don't complain when you're also TREATED like crap.
PRIDE - it's gotta start somewhere.
just by the description of the job, sm
needing someone certain days and certain hours makes this an employee position!!!!! At the very least, it might be able to be called SE (statutory) but I am not sure about that one. I am sure about one thing, an IC position IS IS NOT!
She is right on in her description of the company
and their management style. People who lack experience and qualifications are the ones who are promoted. There was an MT at OSi who was on 100% review for months and months. She was then promoted to a QA positon, and while in that position was on the easiest clinical account they had. BUT, the client demanded that she be removed from doing QA on their account. And then, guess what? She was promoted to QA manager. Many, many, many good QA Specialists and good MTs have left. Like somebody earlier said, OSi is the perfect place for newbies. It is not the place for MTs with anything on the ball. You should honestly check out the whole management staff. It is very comical. OSi is a joke. Sorry to upset your apple cart! 
Unbearable is a really strong description
for an account. I've read similar on other forums, so think I may pass. Difficult, challenging, OK. Unbearable = a bit scary.
Really?! That's news to me... what's my new job description and what are they paying me?
Since you seem to be in the know....
which one? give a short description and I'll let you know if Im one of many
.
I'm back. Just read over job description. No PTO is right. Thanks for pointing that out. NM

Found this description of FMLA eligibility
Employees eligible for leave under FMLA are those who:
· Have completed at least 12 months of service with the company, and
· Have a minimum of 1,250 hours of service during the 12 month-period immediately preceding the
commencement of the leave, and
· Are employed at a company that employs 50 or more employees within 75 miles.
What if you've already used FMLA leave before, or you think you may use it again in the near future?
You may wonder if you still have FMLA leave available to you. TriNet uses a rolling 12 months
measured backwards from the date an employee uses any FMLA leave. In other words: you’ll look at the
end date of your requested FMLA leave, then look back 12 months to determine if you’re still entitled to
any of your 12-week FMLA leave within that period.
Disillusioned....Sue's description sounds like the company you just left
except for the rental fee, which they JUST changed recently, and even then it was higher than the one Sue quoted. I still say you got a much better deal with Amphion.
Control copy, put in in text description, name it then save.

Sounds like the job description for most. As Elmer says, be vewy, vewy qwiet...nm
