Directly to a hospital.

That's the type MTSOs take advantage of, and
just too minjute and worthless to be paid what I'm worth, stand up for myself, or take a con-artist to court. (Hubs probably beats her, too.)

What companies use ChartScript and ChartScript.net?

3M = SoftMed = ChartScript = ChartScript.Net
SoftMed was purchased by 3M in 2007. Both products ChartScript and ChartScript.Net are still available. Both have internal text Expanders that work well

No use taking things up with them directly, nothing ever changes, it is their way or the highway. Furthermore, they will never return your phone calls.

As far as not wanting you to post on message boards, hmmmm wonder why? Do you think maybe they know they do not have a good reputation and that might get out? Be careful, Big Brother is watching, NOT. This is America Folks chat on!!!!!!
Look at the post directly below yours or look
 at the ads on the job boards. 
You might try contacting QA directly ...

I agree, this makes no sense and my guess is all the HIPPA folderol is just a smokescreen this person is throwing up (for whatever I do not wanna deal with this or stick my neck out for ANY reason) ...


alternatively -- I would recommend saving each and every report you type from this person AND THEN  flagging the report for QA  so you can fill in your own blanks if no one wants to help you.  I type several doctors who  -- without samples -- speak in some impenetrable monotone ... without my file of samples, their reports would be moth-eaten.


good luck - if your company has a chat board or if contacting someone else on that account/WT might be a (much less convenient and/ or discrete) alternative.


Good luck, Yes, people do actually quit jobs over dictators like that ... too bad so many companies seem to blame the MT and some imaginary work ethic problems when the real problem, imho, is lack of support. 


All this turnover of MTs (or any other employee class) is VERY VERY bad for any company's bottom line...  but so many companies seem to blame the MT personally ... it poisonous.

I contacted them directly and they
told me they were NOT hiring..... Makes me sad :(
She said that the OP directly told her
and other coworkers all these things in instant message.

Jewish is the main hospital, St. Mary's is another hospital under their management. (nm)

I've not worked for them directly, but have been...
in contact with the upper management off an on for other matters. Very personable, level-headed, and presumably much SANER than some other company higher-ups that we've all discussed here!
You may want to call and ask them directly on Monday...
but I believe it depends on the way you were hired. If you are an hourly employee, your PTO would be paid at that rate. If you are production based, your PTO rate is paid at your average production over a period of three months. You must maintain a minimum line count though. Rochelle would know better.

E-mail me directly, I'm not posting it on here
too often, and I don't want them to figure out who I am before I make my decision. All I can tell you on here is, make sure whatever you agree to with them, you GET IT IN WRITING.
Talk to the CFO directly. Don't stand for this.

No. Then you get the great "work for us directly"

Why not send this to her email directly?
I think you should take this to her via email. Its easy enough to create an alternate ID so you would not be identified if you are trying to be anonymous.
I quite agree with communicating directly
It takes absolutely zero integrity to post grievances on an anonymous chat board. In my view, integrity demands that we take our complaints to those who have the power to do something about them--otherwise you are not handling the complaints productively or with integrity--you are just whining. As they used to say back in the day, don't say behind someone's back what you would not say right to their face. I think the way MDI has been treated on this board is shameful. Many of you owe an apology for your behavior and actions. (And have you considered that what you say can be legally actionable?) If any company works for you, stay; if it does not work for you, leave. There are all kinds of companies for all kinds of people. Keep trying and you are likely to find the right fit. Please consider how you might feel if someone came on a chat board and bashed you anonymously. You know, that old saying about the Golden Rule? In my book, anonymous attacks are about the cheapest sellout there is, integrity-wise. Think about it.
Ask a simple question, everyone goes directly

In my communication directly with Transcend...
I was informed they do not have PT openings, only full-time.

As I believe CynicalMT said, TRUST NO ONE at this juncture.

I believe both companies are simply trying to keep everyone calm until THEY decide to drop the other shoe.

I am full retirement age (FRA) and still working; do I report my earnings to Social Security?

Question
I am full retirement age and still working. Do I have to report my earnings to Social Security?


Answer
When you reach full retirement age you no longer need to report your earnings to Social Security.

You do, however, need to report earnings for those months in the calendar year before the month you reach full retirement age. For example, if you reach it in May, you would need to report your earnings for the four earlier months.

The law also changed the annual earnings limit for workers who reach full retirement age during the year. During those months before you reach full retirement age, your benefits would be reduced $1 for each $3 you earned over the limit which is $37,680 in 2009 and $36,120 in 2008.



I think you know what I meant. That is not the problem as I responded directly to her email.

I am sure that any other company that tried to respond to her also had the same problem. I know it is sbcglobal.net but hey, I am not on here to get QA'd.  I in a very quick moment put up a message to an MT who wanted a job and did it very quickly in the middle of my busy schedule trying to be courteous and helpful.


Have a nice evening or was that eneving.  :)


I took out the legal references. If anyone has questions about it, email me directly.

Does any facility hire MT directly as IC or employee for eScription? sm

I do not want to work through a service again.  I am tired of running out of work. If anybody knows of any leads, even if they aren't hiring right now, please e-mail me privately.  All responses will be confidential.  I am looking for something for myself, not to be posted to others.


Thank you in advance.


Don't say no one warned you. They are doing away with part-time MTs. Heard it directly from th

Only if you work directly for their hospitals, not as a Diskriter employee. nm

Has anybody gotten hired from a contact directly from posting your resume .. sm
Just wondering if posting my resume on here is a wise idea and what kind of success other MTs have experienced with posting theirs on these types of sites, versus sending your resume to a company in response to their ad.
I removed the posts after speaking directly to the owner of the company. If
you have questions or concerns you need to take it up with her.  There is one specific person causing most of this grief.  I have CHOSEN to remove the posts, I was not forced to. 
First for hospital, then outsourced still on same hospital work
and believe it or not, the hospital was so much easier. Had worked at the hospital for 11 years before they outsourced and then worked another 3+ years for the company they outsourced to. What a difference! The company had so many rules and regulations you could hardly keep up with them all, thousands of them, on the same account, mind you. The higher ups would not leave you alone, constant IMs about any and all. I have gotten to the age where I do not need all that and walked the other week. Have scheduled testing with another hospital for this month. Hope I make the cut, love the hospital work 1000 times more than a company.
Great News!! I was able to cash the check yesterday. I called the branch directly and they said-sm

right now it was good.  I do live in another state but her bank was bought by a bank that is local to me.  I went there as soon as I could get there and they cashed the check for me!!!  She owes me another small check ($84 and change) which I still have not received.  I was beginning to think that I was never going to see this $$ (the last time I was able to cash a check from her was back in January).  I guess if I bug her enough I will get my other funds.  I think she just wants me to go away which I will as soon as I get all the funds owed me.  She also owes me a 1099 but I am not going to stress over that.  I still have my records.  Thanks all for your ideas. 


Webmedx watches every min you type or don't type.
I personally didn't like logging off to go to the bathroom or get a drink or whatever. Drove me nuts. They were too regimented for me. Not sure if you are aware they do that. Part of working at home is the flexibility and they just weren't. Good Luck
ChartScript
Any opinions on ChartScript platform -- how is it to work on?  Am considering job offer.  Thanks.
RE: ChartScript
Work with it every day at the hospital that employs me. Great program. Word based, choose admission date/work type from drop-down menu, click on correct information, begin transcribing. Piece of cake.
ChartScript?

Can anyone tell me anything about chartscript?  I am wondering if the program is user friendly, etc.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!


p.s.  Have a good holiday weekend!


CHARTSCRIPT
I was wondering if anyone knows what companies use Chartscript for their platform....I have used it before while working inhouse and liked just wondering.

Thanks!!
ChartScript or ChartScript.net
ChartScript is SoftMed's Word based transcription application, requires an install on your PC.  ChartScript is awesome, user friendly, easy to learn.  ChartScript.net is SoftMed's browser based application, does not use Word and is awful.  Hope that helps.
ChartScript
Worried..the hospital where I work uses ChartScript. I like it pretty well. We use it with WinScribe. Hope this helps.
ChartScript
Yes, ChartScript is great. Works really well.
Chartscript
Anyone know of a company who uses Softmed (Chartscript) as its platform?
ChartScript
I now work for a company called E-mtsonline.  They are based out of Coral Gables, Florida and great to work for.  They used to be MRC before Medquist bought them out 8-10 years ago.  Hope this helps.  Also, they have tons of accounts and work. Great benefits and PTO.
