Peachtree Transcription, LLD - anyone ever worked there?

Posted By: ceci on 2007-05-21
In Reply to:

Just wondered how it is working there?  Is it a fair place?


I have a friend looking to work from home, and she's new at this.


I'm telling her to really do her homework and not be afraid to ask around how it has been to work for the different companies before she invests a whole lot of $$$.


One co I went with drove me into bankrupcy before I could get out.  OUCH>

PeachTree Transcription
I worked for this company previously and they are very organized, great people! Pay was always on time too.

Anyone know anything about Peachtree Transcription out of Georgia?


 


peachtree transcription
Anyone ever had any experiences with this company?  They quote you a line rate then pay you something different.  Also, took 3 weeks to get a check.  Very rude people to work for.
Peachtree Transcription

poor human resource techniques.  They  must have financial problems since they are continuously making excuses about the pay.  I had to take off due to a death in my family, my 9 year old daughters father, my ex, who was only 39 years old.  They were calling me repeatedly during the funeral and at the graveside needing me to work. 

When I finally talked to Stephanie she was yelling in the phone at me, Do you know what kind of bind you put us in????  I resigned.

oing on two weeks and have yet to receive my last check.  I am obviously not getting child support any longer and I had to take off work to help my child through this. 
Bad company to get involved with!!!!!!!!!!


Peachtree Transcription

Does anyone have opinions they'd like to share regarding pros/cons of Peachtree Transcription out of Atlanta, GA?  Not much in the archives about them.  Are they easy to work with as an IC?  What do you think of their medical insurance?  Good managers, pay on time, decent dictators?  Thanks a lot for your help!  I am considering three offers and need to know more about this company before I jump in!


Peachtree Transcription
Does anyone have any info on Peachtree Transcription in Ga?
Anything re: Peachtree transcription out of Georgia
I would like the good and bad of this company.  I am considering and would be interested in hearing.   I have been with other national companies and just want to hear the scoop.  If interested in talking over the phone, I can call.
Peachtree Transcription, LLD - anybody know of this company?

They are in Atlanta.  Say they pay by the Minute.  Not sure what that means.


Any help would be appreciated. 


Peachtree Transcription Assoc...anyone have any recent info? Not much in the archieves

I saw that they pay by the minute...is that good, bad?  Never been paid that way before.  All I know about them is that they hire IC only...if that is still the case?


I worked for US Transcription for
a little less than a year. It was overall a positive experience, although at the time, I was sufficiently desperate for work that I signed up for full-time work, and after 20+ years of doing MT work, found I just couldn't keep up, and they didn't have any part-time work available. (That was about four years ago, and I'm now working part-time and in the process of applying for disability.) I'd say they're great; just make sure that if you sign up for full-time, you can meet the quota. They do seem to be hiring fairly often.
Has anybody worked for TSI Transcription South Inc?

Absolute Transcription - has anyone ever worked with them?

ANYONE HERE WORKED FOR CC TRANSCRIPTION? EMAIL ME PLEASE
I would like to speak with MTs who have worked for her in the past. 
Peachtree
Had telephone interview yesterday with them. Did not realize they were only IC status. Production is paid by the minute. They sounded nice, don't know any more than that. I want/need employee status, so had to end interview. Hope this helps.
Peachtree - GA
Would appreciate any recent info on this company out of GA.
Peachtree - sm
I was offered a position - IC only, no benes, paid by dictated minute. Wasn't for me.
Peachtree/PTA
If they are the same company I attempted to work for earlier this year calling themselves PTA I worked 3 days and they never paid me for it.
Peachtree
Good benefits, owners are nice people. Steph is the owner's daughter and pretty much in charge. Okay outfit if you can handle their office manager with first name that starts with an A. She intially I believe went to school to be PA, but has been with them for long, long time. She may be good at hiring, but...
Must not be the same Peachtree
I worked there a few yrs ago and pay was always on time and correct.  I never had any problems with them.  They also do have benefits.  The last I knew they had health insurance, life insurance, dental of which they paid a portion of.  I found them to be completely fair. Bruce and Suzie owners with Stephanie taking over.  They were all very pleasant people from Rhonda, Steph, Bruce, Stephanie, Alice, mother Anne and their computer person. 
I think its not the same peachtree
Trust me I am not getting ripped off. I am paid by the minute, and I keep track of the minutes I do, when I receive my minutes from them, theirs is usually higher than mine by a few. I am making great money even after taxes. Are you sure this is the same peachtree?
peachtree
Sorry to hear about your problems with Peachtree. I've never worked for anyone who acted that way. I'm sure you'll find a better place to put your experience.

On another note, I had the same thing happen to me - 39-yo ex-husband died and my twins were 9 at the time. Don't know if you know this yet, but you will receive social security benefits for your daughter until she turns 18 and even longer if she goes to college full-time. If you haven't done so, you need to call your local Social Security office to get this set up.

Good luck and god bless your little girl - believe me, I know it's not easy!!
Peachtree
There is nothing that irks me more than someone to work for someone and then not get paid in a timely manner. I have no tolerance for it. It has not happened to me but it has happened to my husband and it really ticks me off. And when your child's father dies who you were obviously involved with at some point and they have the nerve to call at the graveside. When I got to my car they would not have wanted to hear what I had to say when I called them. That ticks me off and I don't even know you. That is so inconsiderate!

peachtree in Georgia?
Great company! I got paid what was quoted and then after 90 days was given 4 cent raise (paid per minute) which I was unaware was coming. I send my bill on the 1st of the month and the check is in hands within seven days. If it is the same company, I personally have nothing but good things to say about them.
SmartMed or Peachtree?? Help please!!!

  Any info on these companies would be appreciated.  Which company would you choose?


Thanks


Has anyone worked/heard of Saince Transcription Company
This company is supposedly located in Alpharetta, GA as well as NJ...let me know if you have heard anything on them. 
Anyone working for or worked for Hoffman Transcription? Looking for feedback

I don't think Peachtree is in business anymore. sm
I worked for them on 2 accounts, both which went to Keystrokes. I moved with one to Keystrokes and what a great company! I never knew that the BS from Peachtree was not normal. I am much happier, get paid on time and do not have to worry about taxes or the moody owner at PTS or his pets.
Has anyone worked for Landmark Transcription? Will you share pros and cons please?

Any info on Peachtree? Offered position there

I was offered a position at Peachtree today.  Does anyone have any info on this company?  Easy to work with or not, pay on time, easy platform, flexible with appointments, etc?  Thanks for any and all information, as I couldn't find much in the old posts.  Thanks!


Info about Peachtree and New England Medical please?
Any recent information about these two companies would be appreciated. 
Anyone work for Transcription Connection in Ohio? I worked there previously & am wondering
xxxxxxxxx
MedWrite Transcription... anyone work/worked for this company can give me any info?

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.
A company is ONLY supposed to verify that someone worked there, what dates they worked, whether PT o
and last date worked. It opens everyone up to a lawsuit if more is given, so most companies are told by their attorneys and business advisors to verify only.

No one has a right to a reference, only verification of employment.
It worked! Latest suggestion from DJ's email worked. nm

If I worked a longer day, I just put my regular shift, 3p-11p, or whatever. If I worked sm
an extra day, then I was told to fudge the hours around on the other days so it all came out to 40.  I didn't really mind -- have learned not to expect overtime in this profession -- and I was happy to be able to work whenever I needed to get the lines I needed.  However, them telling me directly to fudge on my time sheet would seem to be a violation of the wage and hour laws.  I suppose it doesn't matter now if they do not even have enough work to make the minimum line count necessary.  Several of the companies I thought were golden seem to have gotten a bit tarnished lately … sad. 
Glad it worked for you. I have worked for companies
that were more reliable and paid without the delay I had. Maybe you started before they started doing that but it makes no difference. I TOO am a single parent.

You are not trying to argue? Sounds like you not only are trying to argue but you are just waiting for anyone to post anything about the co on here so you can just get out there and respond, which seems to be the way I have always noticed it. It's like all the MTs or whoever that work there are just waiting to respond.

This board is about the good points and bad points about companies. I am telling my experience.

The people were nice people though, but my experience was not a good one and I will not say it was.

I can go a week after the end of payday and even 10days later but that's it. Kids would starve.
Webinar -Evolving Medical Transcription: Technology's impact on traditional transcription process

Hey everyone, check out this link. This is what we are up against. Be sure and note how 3M or whoever is the sponsor of this webinar throws in that dictation and transcription is time-consuming.  Nevermind that EMR and VR take more time and money to be successful and it only takes 38 seconds to dictate a returning patient and 2 minutes to dictate a new patient versus 500 clicks on a point and click EMR or the mess VR makes and having to have an Editor come in and clean up the mess. Propaganda that we should know about.

Best company I have ever worked for, and I have worked for a lot!
I can't believe some of the things these people say here, and have to wonder if it just the same person or two bashing. I have been at MDI for four years and I do not have a low workload and I get treated very, very well.
They one I am not sure of. I have always worked FT for them. I have worked both IC and employee
and I always did way over 12,000 a pay peroid. I am sure they are pretty comparative to other companies. You definitely could contact a recruiter by applying if they would answer all of your questions up front. Good luck.
Trying to get info on Transcription-Express(not X-press Transcription)....

Got a call and am scheduled to be hooked on later this week.  Does someone need to stop me?  TIA
