Information on company

Can anyone tell me if they have had any experiences with the company FutureNet Tech; they are based out of California. I am supposed to start working for them, and after my experiences with some other companies, I hope they aren't the same.


 


Thanks,


June


Company Information
I wanted information about Healthcareone in NY. Do they have constant work
information on company please

Anyone have any information on Transolutions.  I just took their online test and failed.  I can reapply in 6 months, but anything you know about them would be great.  Thank you. That did not make my day. 


MD-IT....any new information on this company? ..sm
Archives are old (2007). Any new info would be appreciated. Good pay? How much PTO per year? Tough QA? What platform?

Thanks in advance!
Alphamed
Last I knew, they get their work from Focus Infomatics.  IMHO, you might as well work directly at Focus for a little bit more $$$. 
Alphamed
Very nice people, but last I heard, all their accounts come directly from a large national that is based in India with a store-front small office in Massachusetts.  The pay is a little less than what the India company pays for direct hires.
Alphamed?

Anyone else work for Alphamed on here?  Just curious if I am the only Alpahmed.


I need some information on a company called
Astat, such as pay, platform, enough work, QA, loan PCs, etc.  TIA

Alphamed solutions
Good company?  any info would be appreciated. 
Alphamed Solutions.....

Be forewarned, if you work for Alphamed Solutions and your computer breaks or has issues with software, etc. more than once in a month's time, you are canned.


I worked for them 2 years on the same account as lead MT. My Word went haywire twice in one month putting me out of commission for a few days each time. The second time it happened, I was canned and told we will keep for overflow work. Ok whatever.


How's that for fair? Oh and the owner talked to me about 15 minutes before the manager called me to tell me I was canned from the account. He was nice and said oh that is just fine. I was updating him on my computer issue. Then 15 minutes later BOOM! What is bad is he did gotomeeting.com and took over my computer so he knew first hand what it was doing and that it really was not working. Still he let the manager can me. I am so ticked off. Do not work for this company! Now I have to go from 8 cpl (which wasn't all that) to 7.5 cpl and 3 cpl for editing just to have a job or otherwise sit here and have no job at all.


ALPHAMED SOLUTIONS

Previously, probably a month or so ago, I posted a message on here that read:

To be fair, let me say this:  I had multiple problems with internet service, etc before also, not just those computer issues.  I had other issues as well.  I would say over the previous six months to a year I had had a lot of issues with working, much of which was beyond my control i.e., computer issues or internet issues.  I live out in nowhereville, where DSL is habitually giving problems.  Anyways, they still have a business to run, and my problems are just that, my problems.  I had worked for them 2 years on the same account and was lead MT for most of that time and when I was demoted to overflow, I will say it hurt.  I think I could have dealt with it better if it would have been in my control, in other words if my computer wasn't haywire and I just wasn't doing my job.  I would have felt, well, I got what was coming, but I felt I was a victim of circumstance.  I had no control over the computer and I was like because of this stupid computer I have been demoted.  In my mind, I thought they could use a backup or overflow MT and when I got issues with the computer sorted out, I would go back to work.  That obviously isn't the way it works though.  I still work, as I said, for them on overflow.  As I said, I was demoted.  In fairness to Alphamed, I have to say I had some issues for a while there.  It wasn't purposeful.  It just happened that way. 


To be fair, I have some issues with my dad that started a little over a year ago, that I may or may not have interfered with my work.  I am thinking maybe my work wasn't up to par and I didn't realize it.  It may have interfered and I refused to believe it cause I didn't see it.  You all probably remember my posts about my dad on the gab board?  Some were anonymous.  I don't post anymore cause I am tired of talking about it and am gonna be moving soon to try to get some peace.  I talked to my manager today and when she said a year ago that I changed then later I was like you know that is exactly when my issues started happening with my dad.  Maybe my work suffered and I didn't see it.  I never even brought up these issues to Alphamed cause I didn't see a need.  Still don't.  I didn't think it affected me, but the time frame coincides when my work began to fall and when issues started with my dad.  My sister told me months ago, you know, our life is like something out of a lifetime network movie.  LOL  It isn't funny but you have to laugh sometimes.  I hope the anticipated move I make in the near future resolves some issues as I won't be living near him and I have peace in my life once again.  Until then, I will put on my big girl panties.  LOL I try to find humor in it all. 


There is nothing wrong with inquiring here for information on a company. sm
A lot of useful information is exchanged here regarding other MT's experiences. 
I am also looking for information for this company. Any info appreciated! Thanks. nm

Alphamed part of Focus
Throw everything you ever learned about style, rules, etc., because Focus makes their own rules.  Worked for Alphamed just a couple of days and didn't even get paid for what I did.

Any Info on Alphamed Solutions?

Good afternoon,


I'm wondering if anyone has any information on an MTSO by the name of Alphamed Solutions, Inc. (Marwan)?  It sounds like an off-shore operation.  Would appreciate anything I can learn.


Thanks for your time and the wonderful jobs y'all do!


Anyone work for or any information on TMT Medical Transciption Company out of LA & TX - nm

MED-scribe, Inc. in Utah or AlphaMed Solutions
Has anyone worked for either MED-scribe, Inc. in Utah or AlphaMed Solutions?
Thanks!
AlphaMed is new, so pay isn't that high yet and you need Word 2003 there. nm

STAY AWAY from this company! Do a search here. Lots of information, none of it good.

Anybody ever hear of a company called Specialized Information Management?
Do they hire at home ICs?
MD-IT hiring - looks like a really cool company to work for... any advice/information?
I sure would love to know more about the company - a search of this forum turned up zilch.  I was with Medquist for 8 years, and the company I went to did not deliver on the acute care account I was hired for..... 
Alphamed advertising again for VR. The turn-off may be the whole whopping 3 cpl offered for VR
We are in America and we are trying to survive on AMERICA'S cost of living. We cannot live on India wages. When are these companies going to wake up. They want you to have experience, yet they want to pay you a few pennies a line. They also state there are ESLs. Have THEY tried to do VR on those reports, 3 cpl is NOT enough. You practically re-type the whole thing. Another joke. This business is getting too sad.

Go to www. eScription.com and click on MT Vendors, there is a small list there.

Good Luck!
Does anyone know anything about a company called Heart of Georgia Health Information Services? (sm)
I am beginning a job search and this was one of the services that I came across.  Has anyone worked for them and had good or bad experiences that they could share?  TIA
I think your thinking of the tactics used by Focus Infomatics, Alphamed, On-Point etc..you know..the
low, low payers.
Anyone know anything about Global Information Systems? Any information would be appreciated. nm

MedScribe Information Systems, Inc - Information please?

Anyone with information on this company? 


Looking for information on QED. sm
I have never heard of them before.  I read some old archives but am interested in hearing from any recent employees.  I've heard the pay is low.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Does anyone know anything about a company called Archivus?
SM for information.
An expander is a program in which you put in shortcuts to "expand" to longer words, sentences, and phrases. For example, typing "forex" produces "for example." They can be used for phrases like
tp for the patient
lt for left
rt for right
egdx for esophagogastroduodenoscopy

Shorthand and Instant Text are 2 of the most popular.

Does anyone have any information
TIA
Thank you for the information!
That is helpful.
Thanks for the information.

You were very kind to respond.


No, but if this were information
 that was really any of your business, you wouldn't have to ask.

Does anyone have any information
I have asked a few times and can find nothing when I do a search on them? TIA
A little information for you

I am not the original person who answered your post, but I also work for Amphion.  When you are first hired with them, they will basically ask you what hours you plan on working.  They are hours of your choosing, but they just ask that you try to stay working that schedule, so that they can provide adequate coverage on their accounts.  They are, however, very accommodating should you need to change your schedule.  They hire both part-time and full-time employee status.  Very nice folks to work for!  Good luck to you. 


Sorry, don't have information but would like to know
Thanks.
I like to come here for information..., sm

but by the time you wade through all the hateful remarks, it just makes you sick!  I am very glad for the time spent on getting rid of some of the junk around here. 


Information
Can you email me with more information?  Where are you located?  How many MTs work for you currently?  Thanks!
I'd appreciate any information on any of these, too
--but I can say I did consider FastChart a few years ago; my decision was between them and my current employer, for whom I work as an employee and not as an IC, as I would have with FastChart.

What killed my consideration of FastChart was the poor line rate; I believe it was 0.065/line at the time, and that, coupled with IC status and filing my own taxes, etc., just didn't beat EDiX's offer of 0.07/line plus benefits.

I'm most curious about Oracle and Proscript and appreciate the PS feedback already provided. At this point, I'll take any advice anyone offers, though. I just don't think the future at my present company is looking so bright.

Thanks, all.
