I'm sure if you call the office they would say why.

Why not call the office and ask them. THey have
been talking cheaper insurance for years. 
Why don't you just call the office and ask where
your piece of the pie is? I'm sure if you demand something you will get it!
Call the office - SM
We have a new HR person now. Just call the office and they will make sure that you are taken care of.
Hardly ever happens. I suggest you call the office. (sm)
Must be a problem with your connection. 
Call their 800 office number and ask nm.

They definitely don't take that long, so please call the office.

Agree....call the office and ask (sm)
for Becky, then tell her what is going on.
Call Becky at the office. 630-739-5520. She will have this
taken care of immediately.
Call the office and hopefully they will follow up with more work. nm

Why not call the corporate office / payroll? nm

Call Anthony at the office and let him know you are waiting or if you have sm
S. Cryer's email address, send an email to her and she will help you. She is the one who trained me. If this does not get deleted, it is scryer@softscript.com


That's a shame -- did you call the office? Maybe they sent your shirt to someone else sm

and they got the wrong size too.  Just a thought. 


Does anyone happen to have the number to call Amherst MQ office. Thanks much.

I would send in your resume or call the office. Some accounts do not
use phone lines at all and are internet only. My account is an 800# but I am not sure if there are any openings on my account.
I started 2 weeks to the day. I would call the office direct if I were you. sm
That does not sound right. Maybe the person you are working with dropped the ball. I would call the office. They are there until 5:30 or later on Fridays. (630)553-3680. This is not private info. It is on their ad.
Get proactive!!! Pick up the phone and call the office?? NM

Call the office and ask to speak w/ Debbie Hood

I have been there 4 years and there are many happy MTs. Call the office, not the sour grapes on thi

Talk to your leads or call the main office to see if you can get a backup account...
I have been there for over a year too and have always had plenty of work...
Can anyone from the Ohio MQ office give me a contact person and a phone number to call so I can talk
to someone there without getting a lot of other people involved before I find out what kind of accounts they have to offer. I am interested in transferring from my current office but would like to speak with someone up there first. Even an email address of someone would help.
Is anyone finding companies they are happy with and are you finding it
harder to get a job with all the people looking right now. 
Yes, they offer I think 4 weeks at full pay or 8 weeks at half pay. Call the office
and talk to them about it. You wont lose your job. They aren't like that.
The main office was in Bolingbrook but they built an office in Yorkville last fall. SM
I think that the owners live in Yorkville, so it was built close to their house. Nice office, just pretty far out.
Just curious, is the MQ Nashville office the old Lanier office? nm
nm
I don't work in the office and never claimed to. I am just saying that since the new office open
October with everyone of the admin staff in one place, these problems do not occur any more.
Can't get paid in the office if you don't work in the office.
JLG has MT's working at home, not in the office, not to mention working out of state.  The mail is the only way to get paid since they have temporarily suspended direct deposit.  The only ones getting paid on time are the ones that do work in the office, like the management and people answering the phone. 
Closed FW office, Indianapolis office too. nm

Yes, call waiting works. I also have call forwarding from my home line

I'm not finding anything on MDI-FL;
all I have read about is MDI-MD.
I'm not finding much about them (sm)
I'm not sure which link to which you are referring, but their web site is not very informative. Thank you for your help :-)
Finding the right fit.
I may be job searching soon. I am looking for employee status preferably, because I hate paying my taxes, but I don't need insurance, so IC would be ok. I have satellite internet. I have a bit over 18 months experience, but with the company I am with, a lot of work types, bad dictation, bad recordings, and ESLs has been crammed into that time. I am hoping to find a company where I can do mostly the type of work I enjoy, which tends to be shorter reports such as ER reports, special studies, sleep studies,etc. I like OP notes, but have very little experience with them. I like ortho and cardio, hate infectious disease and urology. Since this is starting to read like a personal ad, I will say that I do like long walks on the beach and would like to get into a job that would give me time to take one. I would appreciate any suggestions on companies to consider.
IC - FINDING CLIENTS
Do you have to pick up tapes and deliver the hard copies with your accounts? I used to have an account where they would dictate into my Sony system (a special system that allowed docs to dictate from their phones, pause, rewind, make changes, etc), and then I would just e-mail the completed work back at the end of the day for them to print out in the office.
finding own account
How would you go about finding your own account?  If anyone can give me any ideas,  please let me know.  Thanks
Finding own account
Thanks, what should be said in the letter?
finding own account
Well, I guess I didn't ask the right question. I have been an MT for 10 years but worked for others. I don't know what the going rate is or does it depend on the specific account? Is there a contract that I would have write up? I just need a little insight if there was anyone out there that has gone through this. Maybe an MT helping out another MT. I do plan on doing research before I make a decision on whether I want to persue this or not. Thanks
finding own account
I have been doing this job for 10 years. I guess it is a little scary to venture out on my own and just wanted some positive feedback. I am finding it hard to sit day after day typing. I used to enjoy it and thinking that may be if I got my own account it would put a light under my hind end because I have covered for different accounts in the past and enjoyed it because I was able to run here and there getting tapes and talking to people and printing the reports off. Thanks to those who have given me a positive response.
finding own account
Boy, everyone is pretty brutal in their responses. That is why I posted this message in the first place was to get some direction. I guess I will go with the my alternative and just get out of transcription altogether. But, thanks to those who did help. This is getting way out of hand.

finding own account
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I didn't think it would be such a big ordeal just to get a little push in the right direction. There is always something new to learn in whatever profession you are in. That really makes me feel a whole lot better.
What are you afraid of them finding out

Finding QA jobs
Usually the way you break into QA is with the company you are transcribing for.  You need to let them know that you are hoping to make the switch and if ever they have a position you would be interested.  In addition, a good answer to the 2 cent deals is that you can see that the company is not truly interested in QA as they should well know that QA has to be a company person who has the time and is compensated for doing a good job seeing that the quality issues are addressed and that production pay certainly does not allow you to spend the time required to do what you know is necessary to perform that position properly.  If they can't find people to do the job, the clients they have are certainly going to complain, complain again and then go elsewhere where the quality IS an issue dealt with correctly and with fairness to QA staff. We don't need to chip away at our industry that is enough disarray!
Finding another field
My heart goes out to all you Heartlanders along with all the others in all fields who  have lost jobs to cheap overseas labor.  It looks like there is soon going to be absolutely NO JOBS for Americans.  Seems all the jobs that can't be offshored are considered jobs Americans won't do or there aren't enough qualified people,  the dandy explanations for greedy corporate America hiring illegals, or what is it?  HR2 visas? to fill the jobs that can't be exported.  America is in a world of hurt and God help those trying to raise children and give them a better life than you have, which is the true American Dream.

I left MQ in early August and have had no problems getting new and better jobs. I just got a second part-time job with a national this week. I sent my resume on-line,and they responded within an hour. A day later, I had a phone interview and was hired on the spot. I still have another part-time job I got in early August working at home for a hospital. Once again, I heard from them immediately after applying and was hired after a 10-minute phone call.

My advice is to make sure your resume lists all the medical/surgical specialties and transcription platforms you know. Also put something in the subject line of your email to make yourself stand out. For example, Mary Jones, 10 years of experience.

I have heard from a few others but did not bother following up for various reasons, low pay, hours, etc.

good luck

finding a job at home
I have nearly 8years experience, acute care, most reports and specialties.  I applied to a company, and I have not heard from them at all. What did I say wrong?  I did say I was GOING TO buy the books...and I will as soon as I get work. I also said I would not work Sundays - that is why I have to quit my current in-office job...help!  Thanks
FINDING A JOB AT HOME
There are plenty of people hiring and with you having 8 yrs experience, you shouldn't have a problem at all. Do agree with other poster to not tell them anything they haven't asked, but then again, you don't want to waste your time talking with someone who has to have Sunday coverage.

I would say to apply to more companies and you will definitely get called to at least test. Remember that they get a lot of applications and sometimes it takes a while. I've been contacted up to 2 weeks after sending my resume.

Hang in there!!
Finding Medquest

You can try the link below.  It is alphabetically.  What I had to do was send my resume to over 300 companies and then finally with the help of God and through prayer have found a company.  Hope this helps.

I think it's just finding the right match....
I have worked for 3 different companies and currently work for two.  On one of the companies I make at least $20 per hour, sometimes closer to $25 and on my second job I make between $30 and $45 an hour.  I actually find myself dissapointed when I'm only making $20 and my husband tells me I'm crazy, that is good money to make at home.  I don't work 8 hours a day though, neither job even has the work to keep me busy a full 8 hours.  I work probably 5 straight typing hours per day.
Are you on CM or Enterprise? I'm finding sm
that it makes a huge difference if you are on CM platform - they seem to have weird rules.
finding the location
it must have been when either I was googling it, or using a list someone posted here about non offshoring companies, and clicked there. Honestly don't remember and can't find it myself again...
