The one in NC I presume.
There is another company with the nearly identical name in India, but it's completely unrelated.

Last I talked to them they were only paying around 7 cents a line, and their system didn't sound very efficient. Do a search because somebody just answered this question here very recently, and the responder actually had tried working for them.
Coverage through my DH company for 2 adults and

2 kids is $280.00/mo for medical only, additional $$ for dental, vision, and life insurance for other members besides DH.   Not sure how much company pays, but not much.  


There are no adults or grown-ups on this board...so many

people on here are so jaded and nasty they don't even recognize rudeness anymore


For no-pay, I presume. Let THEM work the bugs out -sm
They created the program to THEIR benefit and THEIR profit. Sure, have the MTs work the bugs out for GRATIS.  Sweet deal for the MTSOs and vendors, right?
Not uncommon. The venture capitalists insist on
profit even if it means bad behavior, and senior management goes along with whatever is dictated, whether it's what the client wants or not (ssssshhh!). If it means they get a year end bonus or a cushy pad to play
in, more's the better. Reminds me of offshoring that clients never knew abut, either.

MTSOs, in my experience in management, will do anything as long as it means that the bar tab has no ceiling and they can keep up with the Jones family next door.

Sorry to sound so bitter and jaded, but I'm tired seeing what management will do to entertain themselves at the expense of the MT and the patient.
Waste of time for you only, but do not presume to speak for others.
You have no clue who I am.
Insist on sample of prior reports, lots of them. Then when you see it, sm
you will say, Oh, so that is what he is saying.  Then, put it in your expander.  Phrases work the best for me, not normals.  Phrases in the Expander for what each item these guys use.  But you need to see lots of samples of prior reports.
Why do supervisors who insist they are not paid to transcribe cherry pick accounts to death?
They could really show some leadership ability if they took the bad dictators and left a few easy reports for those of us who would appreciate an easy report once in a while.
Stop putting up with adults who are children. It is IRRESPONSIBLE to go to a payday loan place. sm
As transcriptionists, we have options. We can take on more work with the company we are with, move to another company, get a second job, get our own accounts.

If everyone would be mature and take responsibility for themselves, there would be no problems.

By the way, for your information, I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF 3 WONDERFUL CHILDREN and I have been for many years. Transcription allowed me to buy a house, pay my bills and be able to buy nice things. I knew when I was getting divorced that I either needed to cut corners or earn more. I did both. My kids and I live in a nice home but my girls share a room and my son has his own. I pay cash for cars and drive them until they cannot be driven or are not safe. We eat at home with home-cooked meals rather than eating out, except when celebrating something like a birthday or good report cards or an award one of them receives. They have nice clothese, a clean house and everything they need. I work while they are in school but make every minute of my work day count, and I have an extra job that I work on weekends in the early mornings when they are sleeping and evenings when they are asleep. We have friends, go to church and have a close family. I have never had child support and have never had to be on welfare.

I budget carefully and have a savings account. I only make 35,000 a year on average but I make it work.

Excuses are just that. People need to do for themselves. If they have medical issues or a tragedy, that's one thing, but so many of the people I have worked with just spend all their time whining and none of that time making their lives better.

I am not going to apologize. I am not a mean person, just tired of hearing people complain about EVERYTHING in this profession. Yes, it has changed, but we still have options. Many other fields do not.
