hi SCMT - I'm in South Florida...sm

where we have many Jewish doctors and so for us MTs, it slows up in September with Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur....so for 10 days it's slow for us in September and/or October, depending on when those 2 holidays fall...this year it came early.....some years it falls in October....and before, in the 1980s and 90s - in SOUTH Florida...we used to have a *season* where the snowbirds would come after the Jewish Holidays and stay right thru Easter and/or Passover in April-May......so we used to be swamped from January through May.  For example, Chanuka is December 4th - that is very early.  My Dad used to tell me every 7 years it comes at the same time as Christmas and I suppose this is the year. 


However, we have no *season* any longer, not really - we have tourists all year round and it got real busy here......traffic wise...all year round...Europeans come in the hot, hot summer (prices are cheaper to come here then) and we should be a lot busier than we seem to be.


But for me, I'm use to the slow times.........A week from today is Thanksgiving....the stores to buy to eat for Thanksgiving are packed already....and people are getting into the *spirit* of the upcoming seasonal holidays....


Of course, things change and nothing is etched in stone but I've been in this state nearly 30 years and my family 40+ years and I've been watching this field since 1980....


Have a GREAT holiday season!!

Platforms are MTWorld and Emdat InScribe. Pretty friendly overall, although I don't like Emdat too well.

They assign everyone as an account exclusive and you get the same doctors over and over again. IT is great if you need it, but if they dictate 10 jobs or 150 jobs, the TAT is the same and they won't have back up if you can't finish it. Some managers are good, one is excellent and the rest are not really MTs. QA people are pretty good though and the MT manager is a nice lady.
I sent a resume, I am not from South Florida, sm
and I have not received an e-mail or phone call. I do not recall seeing only South Florida resident applicants need apply in your ad. Is this only for Florida residents?

I have a valid e-mail address, am a real MT with 25 years experience, and never received a response. What's up with that?.

TIA!

Sold to Indians.  Many people have left them.  Terrible VA account.
About the South...
I live in the south, but I REFUSE to defend any MTSO that would treat anyone like that. I do think you have a point, however, about a company located in the south. Employment wages are definitely lower here. However, the company that offered me 7.5 cpl was in Maryland. I currently work as an IC for a very small company who contracts from the local hospital and I am paid 11 cpl. I was curious what was available out there as an employee, but I'm thinking I will stay right where I am. Something needs to be done. They are taking advantage of the MTs and it's time to fight back.
transcription south inc in FL

Does anyone have any info on this comp? Is pay on time?? Any info appreciated.


TSI Transcription South
Yes, I have worked for them. Nice people but they overhire.
Transcription South
What do you want to know? They overhire like a lot of companies, but for the most part they're o.k. They pay on time and their benefits are good.

Hello everyone.  I have searched for information and cannot find anything.  Does anyone know anything about Transcription South or DTS?  Has anyone worked for either of these companies?  Have help would be grateful.  I have been contacted by both of them.  Thanks
MD-IT South Bend Indiana
Anyone know anything about this company?  I have been an in-house Transcriptionist for the past 14 years.  I was just told today that my job is terminated as of 08/31/07.  They are going with MD-IT, and said that this service is interested in employing all four of the in-house transcriptionist.  Any info would be greatly appreciated.
TSSC of South Carolina
Any info regarding this company?  Nothing on the boards and cannot find website.
That settles it ... I will stay in the south and be

completely and utterly happy with my current pay. 


why do so many MQ transcriptionists
on the boards seem to be having such a hard time with keeping up their line counts? I am getting ready to send them my paperwork today and I'm getting really nervous. Right now I average anywhere from 1400 lines to 1700 lines, however, I'd like to get that up to 2000 per day....what's the deal with MQ????
MQ Transcriptionists

To the Administrator:


Since MQrs are practically occupying the whole main board,  and it seems this company has the most transcriptionists in the MT business, may I suggest that an MQrs Board be set up for MQ so as not to waste the time of MTs who would like to be informed of other matters on said board.


We, who are not MQrs would like to know more of other MTs' problems with other companies and not only with MQ.


Thanks,


jgl


Some of these transcriptionists are

so ignorant. They don't read anything other than MT stars. They constantly bitch and moan about MT companies that offshore but they're typing on a computer that was made by someone in a foreign country...they have a ragedy imported vehicle sitting in the driveway......they have a Japanese vacuum cleaner, etc...  Yet you come to this board and state how dirty and poor these people are.


Intelligence says a whole lot about a person no matter what part of the globe they live in. All of the offshore MT's who work for the company I QA for are college educated (4 year degrees). They may be poor but they are doing everyting they can to make a better life for themselves. They are not lazy. They don't call in sick every other Friday. They are dependable. They are loyal to their employer.  They would NEVER come to MTstars or any other forum and berate and belittle their employer like many of you do. Most of you people don't know what the word loyalty means.


Offshoring is nothing new. It has been done for years and will continue to be done. Nearly everytime you purchase an electronic item you are supporting offshoring.  You're just too stupid to realize it. You are no different than the MTSO's who offshore. The MTSO's who offshore are looking for the same thing you are when you buy an import-QUALITY. 


Perhaps they have transcriptionists that they-sm
know frequent this site and they don't want those transcriptionists to know they are hiring editors or any other personnel. just a thought.
Is it just me, or does 100 transcriptionists
seem like way too many for 1000 beds?  Would hate to see people sitting without work...
No, you are NOT transcriptionists....if you were...
you would take more time to learn the ENGLISH LANGUAGE and how to use it *correctly*. Studying in a large institution doesn't mean squat if you put out poor work for medical records. It scares the bejeezus out of me to think that you might be transcribing a record of mine! I've seen some of the stuff that comes out of your country - not sure which institution taught the *stuff* I've seen but have serious doubts about it being MIT! So all in all, you've lowered the standards of the medical records field, you've brought down our pay, and you've put fear in Americans about the security of our personal information. Don't ask us to feel sorry for you, and consideration won't be in the bag, either. Generosity? I guess you've already achieved that by undercutting our field in ribbons. We're hoping for somebody to stop this mess, and I'm working feverishly by bugging my elected representatives to achieve just that.
No more transcriptionists
If there are not enough transcriptionists, perhaps they are still at Precyse Solutions stuck on 100% QA.

any steno transcriptionists here?

I use a steno machine to transcribe with and was wondering if any of you do too.


I'm getting ready to start with Medquist and wondering if there are any tips for me.


thanks


Not all managers were transcriptionists.
I know of one manager who used to be in marketing. She is still there now. She is and/or was not very well liked because she was not a transcriptionist. There is no teamwork. I tried teamwork, until the manager put an end to it. They could care less if you get a lunch break as long as the work is done. You only know about your manager and co-workers. You would know nothing about other account managers and their employees. They changed their name because TSI has a bad reputation. They were losing accounts. They laid off people. They can't afford incentives. The insurance premiums are insane.
happy transcriptionists!
It's really sad that someone who is obviously a disgruntled EX-employee would bad mouth a company that treats it's transcriptionists so fairly and with respect.  There are 34 girls that would be more than happy to say how much they love their jobs.  Being the relatively small, but incredibly busy, group that we are, we are honestly one big happy family and I plan to make sure that it stays that way!
Why don't ya try giving the transcriptionists

a limited number of doctors to learn in the areas they were hired for?  NOOOO....gotta know 15 doctors.  Then you folks want us to fill in on an emergency in a field never tried before by the transcriptionist...the Transcriptionist tells you she's never done that but you say....ahhh...you won't have any trouble...please???  She says yes and tortures along trying to figure it out for pennies on the dollar.  Two days later she is still struggling along, has told you several times, but you say you're doing great...Two days later you send her an e-mail saying that if her work doesn't improve you'll have to dock her pay.   Stick it man.


Lets see....doctors specialize but we who make peanuts have to be able to transcribe ALL specialties or are punished.  Wake up.


 


 


travelling transcriptionists
I am new to this site, and not sure this is the proper place, but does anyone know anything about travelling transcriptionists?  Worth it?    Are there many companies that hire travelling transcriptionists.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.
WebmedX Transcriptionists

Can anyone give me any information about WedMedX.  Is this a good company?


I hear they pretty much watch your every move, when you are punching in, when your away, when you punch out, etc.  Is this true?  Do they have a lot of ESL?  Any info would be helpful.  Thanks.


Hiring new transcriptionists?
I have a friend who completed a transcription course through a 4 year college and wants to find a company that will allow her to work at home. I can mentor her having 20+ years experience in the field. Does anyone know a company that will hire new grads and allow them to get some experience that way? I have told her about doctors' offices, but we're very rural here and there are not too many doctors around. Any help would be appreciated. I have been searching the job board here and MTJobs also, as has she, but we can't find anything. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
documed transcriptionists
HI.  Are there any Documed transcriptionists out there?  I am a new employee and while everything is going fine, there are some questions I have that I am not getting any answers to.  TIA!  
Sorry - but BS!!! - no shortage of transcriptionists!
There is in fact not a shortage of transcriptionists in the United States. I don't give a hoot what the companies say. There are very qualified and willing transcriptionists trying to find work right now and cannot, while the work is being offshored.

The problem is that they can pay less to the transcriptionists when they are offshoring, not because they cannot find transcrriptionists!
Traveling Transcriptionists?

Thought this sounded interesting to somebody.  A place called KForce evidently has job openings for transcriptionists.  Hope the link works:

A Question for TransTech transcriptionists!
TransTech has a job posting and lists an array of benefits, and at the end it says "much, much, more."  I'd like to know what the "much, much, more is."  How is the starting pay?  Is there a low-premium major medical health insurance that covers any state in the US?    Thanks yall.  (From the South)
AND DOCQMANAGE THAT GOES ALONG WITH IT TO CHEAT THE TRANSCRIPTIONISTS!!
I hope it all comes out in the open soon!
Any TransTech oncology transcriptionists

I started working at TT almost 2 months ago and was told they were inundated with work, but after working for about 2-3 weeks, the work has steadily dwindled.  I am scheduled to work the weekend but there is never enough work to get my hours on Sunday.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Also it seems to me that I don't get the line count there like I have with my other jobs.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem?  Would like to hear what you think of the account and the company.  Thanks for any info.
