PMSI Test

Posted By: MT Texas on 2006-05-20
In Reply to: I heard from them yesterday and took a position - with them. Faxed in my contract this morning. nm

What kind of equipment (if any) does one need to take the PMSI test? It is a written test or transcription test?


Thanks

PMSI?
Does anyone work here or have any information on this company? Thanks.

PMSI has held their head high and deservedly so.  Please don't judge this wonderful company based on one person's negativity.   
PMSI
Thank you for your positive comments. I am the one they said the negative and untrue things about, however, I did not do the original post. I was just accused of doing so and terminated for supposedly doing so. I really wish whoever did that original post would own up to it and stop all the negativity. I want to just move on with life.
PMSI
However, they attacked an innocent person. I DID NOT DO THE ORIGINAL POSTING, yet they attacked me. I was unhappy with some rude comments made to me by one of the owners and told her personally so she then assumed I was a total idiot and would publicly post garbage. She has every right to post her rebuttle, but to publicly say nasty and untrue things about me was improper.

You know, it's amazing that you would say you did not have doctors' addresses.  With the plethora of information we are given, it is rare indeed that one has to leave a blank for a doctor's address. 


PMSI
Does anyone know anything about this co?  Thanks
Anyone know about PMSI??
What is the word on this company?
PMSI
They only have IC status and the pay is 8 cpl.

I have worked for PMSI as a radiology Transcriptionist for almost three years and I think they are great.  The owners are former transcriptionists who understand what we are going through.  They are very understanding about family emergencies, and they actually believe that their employees have lives outside of transcribing.  I  worked for a large national company and two small locally owned companies  before I came to PMSI, but PMSI is by far the best of the bunch.
Anyone know anything about PMSI? sm
I am going to test with them and I want to know if anyone has anything good or bad to say about them.  TIA.

Ugh! They are rude!


Looking for info on PMSI..

Cannot view the archives at present


PMSI anyone hear of them? SM
Just wondering if anyone knows how long they have been in existence - website does not say - anyone know what website you can go to for that information?  Thank you.
Have you heard from PMSI yet? sm
I haven't heard from them yet and I am starting to get a little antsy.  You can e-mail me if you want.  Thanks!
To the person who just tested with PMSI, how did it go? nm

I tested for PMSI over the weekend, but SM

haven't heard anything yet.  The person who contacted me seemed really nice.  If the test is indicative of their work, I think I'd really enjoy it.


Has anyone else heard how well they did on the test?


Does anyone know if it is IC work or do they have employee status too?


I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they'll get back to me.

JustMe - Have you heard from PMSI yet? sm
I haven't heard from them and I'm starting to get antsy.  Let me know if you have heard from them, you can e-mail me if you want.  Thanks.
Have any of you heard back from PMSI? I'm also having a bit of a

Anybody work for PMSI? Would love to hear your experience.

What the big hoopla about PMSI. Are they really great to work for or something. What do they offer?
Good pay, benefits, platform, what??? It just seems A LOT of people are interested so I figured they must have something wonderful going on for them.
I took a test for a company and my foot pedal would work with the test and I had keep going back
over the dictation time and again to get all the words because I couldnt stop and start it by the foot pedal.  What can I do about this.
Just took the test myself. No actual dictation to transcribe. Just a written test.
For 13 cpl, I might do it if the dictators aren't a total horror.
I just took the test today - thought it was a great test of MT skills.

There is no written test. Must have been a different company. I took their ortho test sm
and it was easy. You had to know your terminology but it was easy to understand AND I used my foot pedal.
Is the test through mttest.com a timed test? Thanks. nm


MQ Test
How long does it take MedQuist to get back to applicants once they have completed the test??  It has been a week for me now and have heard nothing.  Is that good or bad????  TIA
What are they asking you to do? What is the test?
MTStars? Maybe there are some posts that may tell you something.


Took their test once.
Short ER test. Easy as it gets. They claimed I didn't pass their test and was therefore unqualified to work for them.

After doing MT for 10+ years at some of the top medical centers in the country (including currently) and ERs for 3+ years, it was obvious they were screwed up pretty bad.

Has anyone taken a test using
on MT Test are using Cscribe.  I think it stinks, but maybe a foot pedal would help.  Thanks.
I did a test for them.........sm
I did a test file for this company.  I never heard back from them.  The lady said they required 98% to pass.  I know I didn't get 98% because I had to rush through the fairly large test file, and I was working for MQ.  With my job at MQ there were some strange requirements that I carried into those reports without time to check the BOS.  However, after working about 4 hours on the test file they never even had the courtesy to reply.  I do not think that this is professional, JMO.

I took their test.
I did AWFUL.  I'm not sure why.  I've taken dozens of other employer tests and got anywhere from a 96 to a 100 on ALL of them.  On Medware's test I got a 43 out of 50, which is basically an 86.  I can't understand it!!  It didn't seem that difficult, if I recall, and I've done so well on everyone else's test.  Needless to say, I didn't get offered a job.  LOL!
I did take the test,
but at the time I was offered a position with another company that I decided to take. I have over 25 years of experience in this business. The test is not timed and it is open book. They tell you that at the beginning. You may think it is over the top, and that may be true; however, they may be wanting to see just how good we (as MTs) are at doing research and such. I'm not saying I agree with the test, I'm just saying that each company has their own way of doing things. If you want the job, you have to do what it takes to get it.
Did you take the test?
.
How did you do on the test?
.
So, how did you do on the test?

I took their test also.

They told me I didn't pass either.  I requested to see what mistakes I made and wanted to know what my test score was, and they never told me even after sending several emails to them asking for this information. 


I wanted to see what mistakes I made as I didn't have any problem taking their test at all, and I don't understand it. 


Test???
I haven't had to take a test with them. I applied through the job seekers board here, got a call the next day, offered the job and was told they would be send me the Lanier system and my lead would get in touch with me on Wednesday when she gets back from training on this new account. I hope there isn't a test, I don't like tests, please don't make me take a test, I don't wanna, I don't wanna. LOL.
I never got to take the test but
another poster gave me some very helpful information on who to talk to when I call, which was very much appreciated.
I took the test but not sure it went thru..

DRC test
Yes, it's difficult if you don't have the required experience. No reference books allowed. Tester will also ask you questions which you will have to answer off the top of your head. If you don't know your stuff, it's hard to fake it. Not trying to discourage you from testing -- just being honest with you.
Test.
I agree.  Back when we had to fax tests, I would have a job offer on my answering machine by the time I returned home.  Not bragging, really not.  Been doing this for close to 20 years, better be able to pass tests.  On my tests I will transcribe verbatim but point out troubling points.  I.E.  One time dictated: Spinal cord removed.  I put it but put an * and put I hate to type this, but this is what he said.  Companies take notice of that.
Look around. Take a test. Get a better job. They are out there.

I did test with them
but I wanted to know more about them like how much work they have.
I would ask. They might be willing to let you test.

which test to take?
They have a number of tests available, h&p, op, etc. I have a variety of experience and don't care where they put me! By taking one particular test am I indicating that's where I want to be placed? I find it a bit confusing! (probably just me, LOL).
