They use the Futurenet platform which I found to be...sm
VERY cumbersome, lots of verbatim accounts with lots of acct specs that seem a bit much. Pay on time, but no direct deposit till after 90-day period. Benefits pretty good, same 90-day waiting period. Wasn't my cup of tea!
Any Axolotl employees willing to share info., platform, ESL %, etc. All info greatly appreciated. sm

Along with the platform, ESL %, pay range, lpd required, split shift or 12-24 hour window available, I would be interested in knowing your personal experience with this company, what type of relationship you have with supervisors and other coworkers, etc.  Otherwise, the all the 411. 


Thanks!

any info on the Cerner platform?

Any new info about Northeast? Pay? Platform? QA?
Archives are showing no new info since about 2006, was wondering how things were now.   How is the platform?  From archived info I see pay was 7-8 cpl for 70 character line, which I'm not thrilled about but I love Psych so tough decision for me personally.  Any info on QA would be great if anyone knows.  TIA!!
Looking for info on the TRX platform, what expanders I can use, etc. sm
I appreciate anything you can tell me.  So much depends on the platform and I am wanting information about the actual working for TRX.  Thanks.

Info on Columbus MQ and DEP platform...anything you can give me.

so no platform, no patient info screen, etc....
I really like working for companies that have a platform. It seems to be faster for me. I type for a company with no platform and I have to download FTP files. It seems to slow me down.
Need info on WinScribe platform software
Does anyone use the WinScribe platform software for any company and if so, is it any good, etc.? amj

Any platform info you would care to share? NM

Any current info on SmartMed? I saw something about the platform not being sm
user friendly, but otherwise not too much.  Their pay scale seems to be good, but she did say it is for a teaching hospital, so that probably means 95% ESLs.  Anyway, any insight is appreciated.  Thanks!
Northeast Transcription, any info? Platform? Work flow? Anything?

RISS is not a platform. RIS stands for Radiology Information System. The platform sm
would be EXText.
MDI-MD platform is fast, not full of problems like Transcend platform or MDI-FL

On Transcend platform you have to click, click, click all day and still get errors, change screens constantly -  its a nightmare to work in. 


Yes, SPi does use this platform....it's a great platform, but not worth working for SPi. nm

Bad Platform. I personally know of 3 MTs who left because of the platform.
If you are like me, the bottom line is wages and what I get in my check. I have never worked for Amphion, but I personally know of 3 MTs who worked part-time at Amphion before quitting their other service to see what Amphion had to offer before it was too late. All 3 quit Amphion and stayed with their other service because of the Amphion platform. Too hard to make any decent lines.

Something to think about.

Here is one post from a couple days back:

Posted By: Amphion on 2005-12-02

To all of us trying our hardest to grab our work when it is available, and then still only make 24 bucks a day because of the garbage platform.

This is what I have found while looking for the right job - sm
I have one child still at home who will be going off to Kindergarten in a couple of years. I do not want to put my child in day care, so I need a job that provides an adequate window to be able to finish my work. I do 1000 lines per day, 5 days a week. I know that isn't a lot, but with a child at home with me during the day, that's the most I can do at this time. I have yet to find a company who will allow you to have employee status and flexibility with your schedule. Yes, you can generally pick your own schedule with most companies, but I just cannot say that I will be able to finish my work within an 8-hour period of time. That is why I am looking into FN at this time.
To each his own. I have found in all my
years of working at home that what one MT thinks is great, another thinks is not so great. The opinions of the company that I stated are my experience. It could be mine only. I am only trying to help.
Found it! (nm)

I found

Has the same email addy. Looks a little...um...well anyway, that's what I found.

I found Beyond Txt to be a
I was not impressed, it took a long time to learn, and the training the pits.
OK, I found it
Thanks I will check that out!
I found some...
I finally found some fairly current posting about OSI. I had to go back to page 20 or so. However, if anyone wants to add anything new, I would love to read about it. Thanks.
What I found -
Most accounts have plenty of horrible ESL docs. There is also lack of work on a very regular basis. Pay is on time and seems to be correct. Communication, when there is any, is often rude, stinging, and nasty for no reason whatsoever other than *someone* is having a bad day. You decide for yourself.
Found it!!
Never mind, unless someone has updated information. I just did a search and found past posts on this company.
That's what I found odd..It was never really an ad..
It really was just someone on the job seeker's board, a Baspen or something saying that some company had contacted her about a traveling job and she was passing on the information. So, no company ever came and did an ad themselves, just supposedly an MT with information. The next thing you know, she is saying the position is filled Now, if she was only just an MT who was asked about a job she didn't want, what is her angle advertising on here for them. I found it odd and thinks this person solicited resumes for whatever reason. I am not sure why it was even allowed on the job board as I do not feel it was very legit.
Thanks! Found it.
I have to buy it. Thought someone could tell me how to delete words/lines at a time, etc.
Let me tell you what I have found about VR
I am on VR and thankful, very thankful a lot of the ESLs on there - the reason is their dictation actually comes out better on VR than hearing yourself. If they have a medication VR is really able to get in a way I never could have imagined. I would not worry about VR being able to get their voices- what I think will probably happen in your job is any and all dictators probably going to VR and then the money for transcribing drops, tremendously. A lot of places trying to do away with straight (the nationals) and get VR.
I have found it
by just typing in MD-IT Transcrip;ton Service.  Their website came up.
Found it, is this it?
The company I have been working for for about a year decided they were not going to pay this pay period because they claimed they did not get paid because of bad transcriptions and they were looking to see who were behind the bad transcriptions and then pay next pay period, which is a month after the work is completed as it is. Also, the work has been under 100% QA, so how could there be bad transcriptions still getting through? Does anyone know if there are legal remedies, as they owe me three paydays if they decide to not pay me.
Think I found it
Do they hire employee or just IC?
I think I found it! Thanks!
I founds some discussion.
We only found out...sm

...in December.  I'm sure the whole thing had been going on for a while, but they didn't tell us MTs until December and gave us about 2-3 weeks' notice.  The conference calls were very helpful and informative, however.  Made the whole process easire.  My TL would always send us emails letting us know what was going on and what to expect...which was not much change from what we were doing already, except for how we report our time/lines.  I just wish we didn't have to fill out all that paperwork again (W-4, I-9, etc.).  The HIPPA and Transcend-specific paperwork I understand, but the others I wish would have just been transferred over. I'm not privy to how that process works, so I just do what I'm instructed to do.


Not sure about the not sending work to India thing.  I believe that Transcend does send work overseas, but it's a small percentage from what they told us.


found it. thank you so much. nm

After 26 yr doing this I have found..
