You just cannot make any money doing that, and face it, we're not in this to waste time in our day. We are trying to make a decent living which is getting harder and harder to do as it is.

YIKES!!! This is horrible. Guess I will not be applying there. Thanks for the info!! nm

Has anyone heard of Transcript USA or have any information? Thinking of applying
I have no found no real information on them. Thanks for your time.
Yikes! A good one to stay away from then. Thanks!! nm
xx
YIKES... I guess I knew it sounded to good to be true. I wonder if anyone ever gets sign-on bonuses
at any company. Maybe we should take a survey on who actually gets a sign-on bonus. How depressing is that. Now I'm bummed.
Does anyone have any information -good or bad- on...

Health Information Partners (HIP), Transcription Inc. or Transolutions?  I was just doing some job searching and wondered if anyone has had any experience with any of these - like I said, good or bad - any information appreciated.


Any information on TSSC--Bad or Good
Anyone know anything about this company??
Any information on USA Transcription, good or bad?
I searched the archives and did not find anything on this company.
I agree! it is so old now and other good information is getting
lost in all this garbage.
OSI, any CURRENT information, good, bad??? TIA nm
.
TrueScribe? Any information? Good or bad. Thanks

Diskriter. NEW information on pay, work, QA, good, bad? NM
,
Any current information on Interpro- good or bad. Thanks
nm
A Stat Transcription out of Florida?? Anyone with any information about them, good or bad?
I am thinking about applying and I cannot find anything on them.
ImedX. Any current information? Most of what I have heard is not good
but I would appreciate some more input.
STAY AWAY from this company! Do a search here. Lots of information, none of it good.

DeVenture versus Encompass. Plesae share if you have any information on these companies, good, bad,
or indifferent I need to make a change, but like everyone in this biz, you dont want to jump from the fire into the frying pan, so to speak. Thanks in advance for any information.
Yikes!
Run for the hills! Don't get suckered into joining them cuz they may offer 10 cpl as it is not worth it; also not worth sacrificing every weekend for chump change. They say they offer competetive wages in their ads but yet they don't offer incentive or shift differential. No wonder everyone leaves as there are greener pastures.
Yikes!

Yikes.
I can't see any MTSO getting involved in this. I know plenty of MTSOs or their loyal workers read here. I warn people when I can and give credit to a good company when I run across them. If a company worries you, don't work for them. There are hundreds of companies to choose from. :-)
Yikes.
That is just terrible!
YIKES!
Just sounds like a bunch of people got up on the wrong side of the bed today. Everyone seems to be crabbing here. I know this is a company board, but why the personal attacks? I think possibly the attendings were not in lately maybe because of the holidays and a lot of docs who work for the Hospital Admitting dictated. It does not happen in droves all the time but it happens. And about people liking certain work types, that is good for the company, everyone just should be prepared to do everything if the company knows they have the talent. In my 20 years of experience things usually even out. Especially at a place as good a TT with the kind of leadership it has. Not to be goody goody, but if someone was worried about too much ESL or some other problem, why not just reduce stress instead of crabbing on this board. IMO. Of course now you can crab at me, but that's okay, I'll just have an egg nog and forget about it (see gab board). LOL
Yikes.
If you like coding, go back to school for that. No way should anyone be doing QA fresh out of school. Good luck to you!
Yikes!
That was the reason why I was thinking about applying was because my company has been very low on work almost all month, and I wanted something more stable. I guess I'll have to think twice about them then. Thanks for the heads up!
Yikes!
I would never give ANYONE copies of my pay stubs no matter who they were or what they said they needed them for! 
YIKES!

I saw an add posted on another forum and the address was Ohio.  Totally strange.  Indian-owned - - I will not apply.  Thank You! 


Yikes
Sounds like something Spheris would do.
Yikes!
We should all throw our shoes at whoever is in charge of that place!
See I did it again - yikes.
*hilarious

I think I should just call it quits right now :)
Yikes!
Ebonics at its finest.
Yikes!!!!! nm

Yikes!

WOW! This is absolutely ridiculous!  There are some really unhappy and mean people on this board.  It really isn't anyone's place to point out grammar/spelling mistakes.  I get emails all the time from my supervisors I work for with typos and incorrect grammar and puncuation in them - WHO CARES?  I do it as well - I am more relaxed in my correspondence, but when it comes to my job, I am extremely conscientious about it.  That's how I make my money.  And the companies know this.  They aren't going to fire you or dock your work because you left off a comma or used an elipses in the wrong form.  I also have a side business where I deal with the Mayor, City Council, and various others in government and they all write like me too! 


You posters who scream and belittle people for things like this really have issues.  Major control issues.  Get some help and leave the rest of these people alone.  Take a yoga class, do some meditation, go for a hike, have a couple cocktails - do something to relieve the stress and unhappiness in your lives.  You can't control the world, honestly.  To the posters who are like me and just relax when we write because we aren't getting paid to do otherwise, keep it up!  I definitely keeps the stress level down.  Don't let these OCD'ers and control freaks get to you - and most of all, don't get sucked into their pettiness. 


Soap box closed


YIKES!!
Better stay away from them too!!  Thanks :)
Yikes! Thanks for the info
NM
Yikes, someone is definitely misleading others. I
that Transcend is still offering 3 cpl incentive to work holidays.
Undercutting ... yikes!
That's not a great practice. That can hurt MTs in the long run because it lowers our pay. If the national can make that line rate, you should be worth it -- or at least darn near -- too! You really just shortchange yourself. Being competitive is one thing but undercutting is another. Make sure you know the difference!!! Competitive means you are within a cent or two of the competition. Undercutting means you accept way less, thus making it look like MTs in general just overcharge and don't deserve the higher pay. Keep it competitive but don't undercut! We deserve just as much as the nationals and maybe even more so don't hang yourself. If you give the impression that you're willing to do the same work for much less, you may have a really hard time raising rates later. Not to mention, other MTSOs will blacklist you for it and if you ever need a job, you may have difficulty finding one. MTSOs exchange info about undercutters all the time.

I speak from experience so just a word to the wise.
Yikes move on....
If this is how they hire people, imagine when it's payday!
Yikes! Got my answer.
Sorry you do not have enough work. Now I know not to bother.
No spellcheck? Yikes!
xx
Yikes. That's going to hurt your ck

Yikes! Thanks for the info.
nm
Yikes .. right, not write. nm

Anyone know anything about Global Information Systems? Any information would be appreciated. nm

Ok, ok, I meant "company". Yikes! :) nm

yikes. i am a high producer. with the changes at Q,
my pay has taken a HUGE cut, so I hate to jump from the frying pain into the fire. I transcribe and edit, and I am definitely feeling the pinch and have to decide this weekend. Thanks for the info...much appreciated
Yikes..I don't think I've used that for like 10 years. Why do you ask?
I'd also be curious to see if any companies actually are still using that. I can't imagine anyone still having it but you never know. Do you really like working on this now that we're on like WP 12??
Yikes - with the pay cuts and all? You can have 'em.
nm
Yikes---that should be question not questino:-)

Yikes! They were so nice during the test...
Oh no....not again....
Yikes..is your experience there current?
I'm leaving a job like that now so chances are that I do not want to go into another situation like that. Life's too short!!!
Yikes! Send resumes out right away. Try some of
I suggest Transtech. They are hiring, and are safe! E mail them and follow up with a call. You need a job! Please consider this a good thing because if the job that just did this would fire you like that on a whim, they are not worth working for, but I assume you have bills to pay!! Please try sending your resume quickly to a couple of reputable companies like Transtech. I can't think of any other. I used to work for MDI-MD but can't recommend them anymore. So many I can say don't send to... but I can recommend TT. Please try the best you can to get on board somewhere ASAP! We are out here pulling for you... and once you are settled let us know you are okay!
