i can tell you this -- we NEED you to do your job so we won't bother you unless we have to :) :) I'm sorry your previous experience wasn't pleasant ... but I can assure you, we do our best to make sure that won't be the case now.

They promise more than they deliver. sm
They seem nice enough but not once you are there. Checks were on hold last year for a few weeks, but that was isolated (as far as I know). I left right after that as I went to another Illinois company (also a Lee but not LeePerfect) and have been happy.

Nothing bad to say but nothing good either. I did not have enough work. Emdat is OK once you are used to it, same as other programs.
She said promise not to YELL!!!!


Thanks - you have been so helpful. I promise, only one more post about this! SM

Are you talking in terms of the minutes of dictation (i.e. five hours (300 minutes) of the doctor's dictation every other day) or the time you worked?  Also, would you receive work at various times times during the day where you would have to keep checking around the clock to see if there was more work or not and essentially feel like you were working all the time.   I had a job where I would never know when I would get the work and would wait around all day long and then get it when I had the least time to work and then get more work again later that same day.   That did not work out, and I would like to avoid that situation again.  I would really like to find something where I know when to expect the work and that I could get it done during the time when I was most available (of course there would be some exceptions...).  Thank you again for all your help!    


OK, promise not to yell? See Message
I feel your pain, because I'm in exact same position, but there is no fighting it. I have chance to go to company without VR, but that company will probably go under, because this is the way the companies save money. It's a mess. I believe we have to accept it or find other careers and I am also seriously considering that.

PS
You could try Softscript.
No company can promise any steady

holiday season.  I find it very slow during holiday weekends as well, no matter which holiday it is.  I tend to just enjoy the downtime, and know that it will pick up. 


It is difficult even with 20 years of experience to keep job hopping, so I'm taking the good with the bad.  I do IC work for 2 companies online; that's how bad it is where I need to work 2 just to keep a steady workflow. 


Run as fast as you can. They promise the moon but do not follow through. sm
Specifically, they promise high volume radiology but I ran out of work constantly. They kept stringing me along about some big new account starting in May but it never happened. I am thankful that I kept my other job on the sly.
Has anyone else seen ads for MT schools that promise 40,000 yearly? This doesn't appear to be tru
with my experience, at least starting out anyway.
Yes they start at 5cpl but promise a raise
once off QA. What a joke!
It's 7:00 am to 12:00 am - midnight. LOLOLOL. Please leave. I promise they do not want you.

Yeah, they'll promise you the world, but don't deliver.

So companies that promise "unlimited" long distance
That's false advertising on their part, I'd say.  If they give you a plan that's unlimited what are their limits?  I'm curious because I have unlimited long distance through AT&T and wonder if they have fine print somewhere too.  I rarely use my long distance for work (I use Comcast for ISP and connect through client's VPN), but who knows in the future.  So does anybody have figures on how many hours on the phone is considered abuse with unlimited long distance companies?  And why can't they balance out heavy usage people with people like me who have it but don't use it much, except for the occasional long gab with family members?

STAT
Hi
I am looking to start up from home and am learning the ropes.
What does STAT stand for and mean to me as a transcriptionist?.  Are STAT reports more urgent than normal reports?
TIA
stat
that doesnt answer my question but thank you anyway
stat
at the same time as what?.
stat
I don't believe you are an MT - how can anyone not know what "stat" means? Don't you have a medical dictionary? If not, you can Google it. Show some initiative and self-reliance - if you really an MT, you'll never last unless you are more indpendent.
Stat IQ
I used to work for them a very long time ago. Took so long to get any lines in.
A Stat
I work for them now and have had no problems. The owner of this company that supposedly is so horrible has been nothing but nice to me.
A Stat
A Stat from what I saw was a good company. They were very eager to help me when I first hired on with them. The owner of the company was nothing but nice and helpful. I think you will be happy there.
STAT IQ (sm)

Does anyone currently work for Stat IQ?  Any information would be greatly appreciated. 


TIA.



 


STAT TRANSCRIPTION
There is a STAT Transcription....I know they do the radiology for one of the area hospitals. They pay be report.
What is an MQ STAT employee?
What is an MQ STAT employee?  An MQ employee that only does STATs?  I do STATs and also regular work throughout my day. 
stat scheduling
Can anyone clear up the "general" schedule I need to follow as an MQ SE? I am so confused. I'm aware each office is different. My office asks for a set schedule, but is "very flexible." For those of you who are SEs, do you follow the exact schedule you give your acct mgr? If you agree to an 8-hour day, must you complete all 8 hours if your line count is already met? Can you log in to do extra work outside of your hours such as nights/weekends? I'm just curious to know how much time is actually monitored, being that this is a "general" schedule. It's very confusing and not really being made clear to me--please help!

a stat transcription

Does anyone have any information on this company?   I sure would appreciate it, thanks.


REsponse to A Stat
If is the one in Port Orange stay away....they are unprofressional, I live here in PO and worked for them and they worked me to death and complained the whole time.    I want to know if anyone can tell me some reputable good companies to work for, it seems all I hear is bad.  Is there anything worthwhile out there?
A Stat Transcription
Business owner is extremely rude. I don't recommend them, either!
STAT Transcription
I just received an email from STAT Transcription offering me a job.  Does anyone know anything about this company??  The platform they use, pay rate, IC or employee status??  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance for your help!!!! 
STAT Transciption
Where are they located?
STAT Transcription
I did some work for them in the beginning of the year.  It was okay, but I found something better.  If I remember the pay wasn't that great, but sent it pretty much on time.  The first check took a little longer to get.  They said they would try to give me more work, but never did, so I found something else.
Stat transcription co
Does anyone have any information on Stat Transcription Co?
A Stat Transcription
Has anyone been recently hired by them? How is it going? I saw that they had a few ads out last month and thought about applying. I believe they are out of Port Orange, FL. TIA
A Stat Transcription
I am a new MT about to take a job with A Stat Transcription.

They seem great (they're sending me a footpedal and spellchecker and giving me a good line rate) and going to work with me to get my career started.

I was just wondering if anyone out there works for them or knows about them who could share some information about the company to me.

Anything you can post will be a big help.

Thanks
STAT work
I called and they sent some files.
A Stat Transcription
Does anyone have information on A Stat Transcription Service? I didn't find anything in the archives. Thanks!
Dolbey STAT is better than
ChartScript at my last job, fields filled in, no searching for demographic info, learned the platform in about an hour. Easiest by far IMHO.
Stat Trans San Jose, CA
Am looking for website of this company, TIA
It's under the A Stat topic below. I just read it.
One happy camper anyhow.
Any info on Accu-Stat? (sm)
Like how reliable they are as far as pay?  How flexible?  Any other pertinent info?  TIA.
A Stat Transcription...out of FL...anyone have ANY info?
Do they hire IC?  Platform?  Pay???  Anything would be appreciated!  TIA
Any recent info on A STAT in FL
Just tested w/ them and wondering if some of the negative reviews from a few years ago still hold current. TIA!
And after you quit & they call for you to do stat job,

Have you ever heard the word STAT?
STAT radiology reports, STAT H&Ps, STAT transfer summaries, STAT laboratory results, etc., etc.


Anyone heard of Stat Trans in San Jose or
Looking for info on whether these are reliable companies, pay on time, platform ease, stable work, etc. Nothing in archives on KCS except one brief mention and seems there are a few different services with Stat in their names so looking for info on the one in San Jose, CA. Found one from a long time ago that seemed positive but looking for more current info, if possible. TIA! :)
That's a Spheris trick. They called me to do a stat
Edix.  Nothing like keeping current records. 
Anyone ever heard of Stat Trans in San Jose, Ca?? sm
They have a few MT positions advertised on another site. Wondering if anyone has experience with them, good or bad, pay rate/dir. dep./on time, etc. I'd like to apply but can't find any info on them specifically, just other companies with stat in their name. Seems to be a popular one! Thx
The correct word is stat. as it is a Latin abbreviation.
It is not all caps and there is a period after it
