Could anyone share their experience from training to being released on their account and the workflow?  Is there plenty of work.... On Bayscribe is the work pooled or you pick and choose the work?  My account will be out of Washington, D.C. (SH)

InterPro present or past employees care to share your experiences
I'm to take the test tomorrow.  Thanks in advance
Any OSI radiology MTs care to share your experience with this company?
.
care to share?
Which companies use the Edmat platform? Standard lph at most companies is 150. Struggled with Express Scribe to get that. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
Care to share where you work?
I've been looking for a hospital work from home for here in NJ and not having much luck.  Is the hospital in your own state?  TIA
Would you care to share the name of the company?
and any other specifics like line rate range?
Are they advertising? Care to share where? sm
Any info I have is old, too. Are they currently advertising? They had decent accounts a couple years ago, though I heard their QA people weren't the kindest.
Anyone here care to share if you were offered a job

Care to share the name of the company?

Is it a National?  How many MTs (educated guess is fine).  You can E-Mail me if you prefer.  I am just curious to find out how many companies have MT friendly QA staff.  Thanks. 


Anyone care to share how much their pay is monthly??

Would you care to share the name of the company
What a total rip-off.
That's correct, but I only pay employees share of taxes. sm
As an IC, you have to pay ALL the self-employment tax.  It's an entirely different ballgame. Plus, my insurance for a single person only costs me $21.45 per two week pay period.  You aren't going to get an independent policy that cheap.  Plus, we have quarterly bonuses besides the tiered incentive. I work for a hospital at home.  More and more hospitals are going to this.  It's a lot more secure than any service I ever worked for.  My point is, options are out there, one just has to look for them.  10 cents a line with no benefits is NOT a good deal. 
Transhealth. Any care to share their opinions?
I'm looking for information on Transhealth.  Anyone work for them currently or in the past willing to share their opinion?

anyone care to share comments re: Preferred Transcriptions in PA? sm
I'm not able to find enough feedback + or -, and I am contemplating sending a resume. Veteran MT here, and refuse to waste my time or theirs applying with a company who does not offer what I'm looking for. I don't need health insurance, but want full-time steady work with a fair line rate and no weekends. Maybe I'm asking for too much, but over the years I have put my share of weekends in, missing holidays with family, missing my childrens' events/activities etc. Thanks for any and all information.

Any current Transform employees willing to share testing process and cpl range?

Anyone currently working Webmedx/Transhealth radiology would care to share info on them - sm
Are all of the dictators ESL as in the test on the website?  If you sign on as a radiology MT are you still allowed a 12-hour window.  Has workload been fairly consistent? Any info would be greatly appreciated.  I took the test and would like some info before I am contacted.  TIA. 
Anyone willing to share their experience with SOAP
Transcription? I'm interested in platform, amount of work, expander, etc. Thank you!
Please share your experience with floreclosure. nm

Yes...they do care about their employees...
and they also make sure everyone has enough work before they hire new people, which I think is great...
Anyone here working for Medivoxx that can share experience with them? nm
xxxxxx
They only have ICs. Maybe they do not care enough to make them employees so they can do what they s
want to them. It is a way to cheat everyone. They do not have to pay SS, unemployment, liability insurance, workman's comp (or is it worker's comp), etc. They do not have to give benefits and put all the money in their pockets.

Employee status means that the company cares about you and wants to take care of you.
Anyone work for Milner in Atlanta who would share your experience? Thanks! nm

I don't think it is acting like a spoiled child to share your experience...
the original poster asked the question, we are just sharing our side of the story...
I transcribe FT and teach PT because I WANT to share my knowledge and experience with sm
others getting into this line of work. If you do not make $45,000 to $50,000 in transcription, you either are not very good or not very dedicated. It is easy and I do that in 6 hours a day with a 30-minute lunch.

they could care less about the current employees they are running out of a job. n/m

Anyone work for Spheris doing VR? Could you share experience, pay, line count etc..
Also, what are the benefits like i.e., medical insurance etc??
Anyone has recent experience with Med-Scribe out of FL that could share, good, bad, or indifferent??
Thanks. I want to make an informed decision if I proceed with them. As everyone, you get tired of wasting your time on companies that are not worth it so I'm doing a little research on this one. Can anyone help??
Anyone with work experience to share on All Type? Choice time once again.....sm

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!


Newly hired by CardioScribes and eager to get started. Any current employees care to
post about your experience there? How long until you met production? Platform? Pay? Team spirit? Dictators? Just any info/opinion would be greatly appreciated. The software has been installed on my computer and I am really ready to get in there and get started. Just waiting for training.
Just because an MT has "acute care" experience,
Some companies will place MTs on acute care accounts, but they only have them set up to do certain specialties for that hospital. I worked on an acute care account, but I did not touch neuro, cardio, or pulmonology. They had these specialties assigned to the more experienced MTs on the account. So I think it is certainly fair for a recruiter to ask this question.
if acute care experience, TRX
/
Most of the jobs do not care how much experience
a person has now. The nationals are basically paying the same, 8 for straight and 4 for VR. I also remember getting extra pay for what they called weighted reports, those being ESLs or the most difficult reports. Gosh, I miss those, gravy!!
3 years acute care experience sm
They do have ESLs and you need to be familiar with a wide range of specialties as they are hospital accounts.  But lots of good dictators too.  Good luck!
me too.. I do not have experience transcribing acute care and

I have been trying my luck with acute care MT companies but no one would hire me because I dont have experience transcribing acute care reports.  I have experience transcribing oncology reports for three years, so if someone here who can help me find a company that hires one?  It would be greatly appreciated.


If you have acute care experience, you should be fine...
but if all you have is clinic experience you may have a problem...good luck though!!!
Acute care experience is limited...

BUT I want to apply for a position in acute care.  I have experience in everything except for operative reports and I am wondering if I should lie and tell the company I have this experience just to secure the position.  I know I can do it because I am resourceful, but is it worth it?  Should I be upfront about my experience or just wing it?  Is acute care really that much harder than clinic?  I pretty much aced the acute care exam, but wondering if my lack of experience will hurt me in the end.  Hm...


Thanks for any advice you may have!

Over 13 years of experience in acute care and various platforms
Dictaphone is one of my personal favorites.
I have 20 years' experience in acute care, can do any speciality, can
do ESLs and I've been offered several positions in that range, though they were employee positions.  
Over 13 years of experience, 5 in acute care and I did the same as you. I confess..
I just thought I was a smarty pants and knew it all so I did not use any reference material but now I wish I had.  Honestly, that was the hardest test I had ever taken for a company. Just when you think you know it all.... then, that makes you feel STUPID!! So do not feel bad, but I think she should re-vamp their testing process. That would scare anyone off.
What do they pay per line for acute care with tons of experience?
x
I've got over 10 years acute care experience and
the recruiter (same one for the last 100 years) called me and talked to me like I was an idiot.  I pretty much told her to take her attitude and stick it where the sun don't shine.  I also told her I can see why they are ALWAYS looking for MTs.  She was a B-I-O-T-C-H !!
I was turned down with 13 years of experience with 4 in acute care. Go figure, but thanks anyway.
I was totally floored as I have experience with the basic 4 as well as multiple specialties. I am not quite sure what they are looking for. The ironic part was a year ago I received the same response from Spheris, yet they advertise that you have to only one years' experience. What is funny about that is the hospital I worked for had just signed a contract with them and they were hired to do work that I was doing on a daily basis at the hospital, yet I did not qualify. Very odd.
It depends if clinic or acute care, years of experience, can you do
ESLs.   They pay about the same as most companies. 
Experience needs to be defined better. Ten years of acute care is worth
