  • I don't think this is a transcription company. - Google it.
    • Yep, it's for selling some kind of health supplements from home, like an Amway organization. nm - No thanks. NM
  • Remember that new "graduates" enter the field every day, so lots of "companies" will - be brand new & w/o any history to speak of. nm

Outsource is what hospital do when they send their dictation to a company such as Transcend or OSI.

Offshoring is when they send their dictation to overseas transcriptionists.  It is easy to confuse the two.

Diskriter and OSi also offshore. 

Rather than have new posters search through tons of archives for answers to this question, maybe a list should be made of all companies that do offshore and posted permanently on the board, with revisions made as new ones come up.  Just a suggestion...please no flames!

I saw this on their website under hospital solutions:

We offer a choice of Domestic or Philippine based medical transcription services with U.S based Quality Assurance specialists, and 24-hour or STAT file turnaround.

also slipped that the best dictators are offshored while the garbage is left for US MTs to do.   The recruiter told me that I was lucky that an account that almost never has any openings because all the MTs love it and don't leave had an opening.   After she mentioned the name I knew she was full of BS because I had worked on the account when I worked at YOG and I knew how difficult the account was.   When I talked to the team leader she told me what a difficult account it was and that they couldn't keep MTs on it because it was so difficult.  

The recruiter and the team leader IM'd the entire time I was talking to them, which I felt was very distracting and unprofessional. 

I turned down the position so can't give you any specifics, but they sure did leave a bad taste in my mouth and I would never recommend them. 

they have in the past.   They lost so many accounts due to the poor quality of the offshore work.   Positions are IC only and no direct deposit.  I don't know how much work there is with Rad account, but there isn't much work otherwise. 

I wouldn't recommend QT until they can prove themselves again.  You can go back through the archives and read past posts about all the issues the last few months.   There are still lots of hard feelings and lots of good MTs still struggling trying to find positions with decent companies.
