Scan Medical or Scan transcription

Anyone with info on them, any info I can get before I start working for them as far as work, pay on time, etc.?


Thanks.


What is Scan Medical like to work for?
:
This doesn't make sense to me either. Scan is advertising for MTs but there is no work?
What's up with company who constantly overhire when they can't even keep their current employees happy. I certainly won't be applying there.
Havent been at Scan Medical too long but finding the work drying up. Anyone else there
notice this. 
I am only part time but I work for Scan Medical Serv. and another company and I am just asking
if other MTs are seeing their work getting very sparse with this company and if she has lost work or what the problem is. I am thinking of moving on to another job offer if this continues.
scan
yes, they are good to work for, strictly IC, local accounts.
Scan
She is good to work for as far as pay on time, flexibility, etc.  The accounts are heavy ESL as stated before.  Weekends are mandatory but you choose the time, so its not too bad.  Good luck and welcome aboard.
Scan
I work there, you can e-mail me directly if you have questions. 
Scan
I can tell you this, if you do your required lines and do a good job, when the work is low you will be kept working and others will be called off that continually don't meet their expectations.
Scan

The only thing I have ever heard that vaguely resembled a threat is when the accounts are backed up and people don't pitch in, she will mention that while she doesn't want to hire, she might have to, and that could end up meaning less work for the people who want/need it.  Also, I may have not been threatened because I always do meet my line commitment and if I can't and know it it advance then I let her know.  That's common consideration.

They called me in the past but now I cannot find their information.  Anyone have it?  thanks.


scan medical
I do know that the client has had to take work back from this work pool as all of the transcriptionists failed to work their required lines and work was at TAT.
Please just scan through and ignore any MQ news. (sm)
As with any company, when something new comes up there are quite a few posts about it, this happens to be a large company and has a lot of employees.

Just scan through the headings, you don't have to open each one. I bet it will only take a few minutes to do.

Have a nice day.
Scan Medical Services, LLC

in North Branch, Michigan--anyone know anything about this company??


does anyone knows about scan med? pls give me some feedback.
thanks in advance
scan medical transcription
Yes, they are reliable as far as a company. Pay is on time and direct deposit and they utilize DocQScribe. I left because even though I have HEAVY ESL experience, these were some of the worst dictators I had ever had
Go scan the word help board
Grab a cup of coffee, a bowl of popcorn, whatever. Just read. Asking what a TAH-BFO is. A lab collie. A CPC with elevated white count. Enjoy, wallow in it, and then get back to me on what a US MT would know and wouldn't know.
Has anyone heard if Scan Medical Services

They made me an offer to work IC for them.


 


Does anyone know anything about Scan Medical Service in Michigan. nm

Is anyone familiar with Scan Medical Services. nm

I just stopped reading it. I scan and read what is useful to me. (nm)

Any info on Scan Medical Services, LLC out of Michigan?
Has anyone worked for them? Are they reliable? Pay on time, etc?
As a whole.. nice people to work for, decent benefits but the get off/on the system, work/no work,
is maddening. I couldnt pay my bills or even work the schedule I was assigned. They would ask us not to work until work built up in the evenings and I specifically wanted to work days as I have kids etc. It just didnt work out for me but to each his own. It just seems there has to be a better balance in this business that what is happening.
I did speak with my manager. Work was promised. No work there when I needed to work.
I see the reports everyday too, but when I get work it is of bad quality, then there is no work unless I work diffrent shifts. Thank you.
My liaison always says to work on secondary when primary is low on work/no work. n/m

That's going to be nuts...I do ASR work too, plus work split shifts. We'll NEED a spread shee

Work is easy, very nice owner, pays weekly, work in Word.

A majority of at-home MT is overflow work with in-house getting the bulk of the work. If they clean

Pay is always on time, direct deposit, very nice management to work with, and DQS platform, work
load normally busy, but low now because of the summer slow down on my accounts.  Sound an issue on some accounts, but not others.  Overall, wonderful company.
That is a BIG problem at TransTech is leads assigning work, rather than letting the work flow
This TT MT just admitted to that fact.  It has been very obvious, as so easy to tell how work comes into our que and then gets pulled out as fast as it came in and replaced with YUKKY dictators.   VERY frustrating to us other TT MT's who take the JUNK that is NOT assigned to other MT's, such as this poster. 
Ever thought of a home health care aide? Usually paid training and start work right away. Can work

Absolutely not! I work for the best MTSO. I am have been so blessed to work for the small company I

I will share this about the MTSO I work for.  I called her late last Wednesday night after Church and told her I was compelled to help out with Hurricaine Katrina in some way and an opportunity arose for a small group from my Church to go to Louisianna this coming week.  Would she be able to cover my work.  She told me no problem without any hesitation and even donated money for the trip. 


And I am sure there are plenty of good companies out there to work for.  To compare us to migrant workers is just not right.


It does work, you do not need to "make" it work.. it works in all word based programs.

I did some overflow work for Landmark.. they are wonderful to work for.. very nice people.. pay was

They have to be flexibility because of the erratic work flow. No sense in a schedule if no work..

I was told Escription would not work with Vista. Turned out it wouldn't work with my sm
Office Basic Edition 2003 either, but no one could figure out why, it was supposed to.

There is actually a section on the Dell website that offers Windows XP. I haven't checked it out as I'm not in the market, so I don't know if it costs extra. I have a Dell and it's been fine for me. I hate the ESL tech department, but it seems like most of them have that now.
Yes they do send work overseas and do not hide this fact. There is plenty of work and they do pay
well. Overall, I like having work as I have been at places where you had to fight to keep busy so this works for me.
There is NO work at Transtech. Maybe they just choose special people to send work to

Are you required to work major holdays at KS. I know nature of biz to work them. Thanks for info. nm

Great people to work for, but I had to leave due to lack of work. Hopefully that has changed. SM
Most of us who do not live in California had to go IC. When I was there, they did not have statutory status, although they told me they did when they hired me. Their pay for VR is VERY low, not a living wage. Many of the folks in the office are ex-YOG and great to work for/with. Good luck.
1200 lines daily is great if you have the work, personally, I never had enough work so
I left and have NEVER been sorry!
Don't know about radiology work load, but we have been scratching in the dirt for work for a numb

of months now.  They hire, lose account, hire again before new accounts comes onboard, then have overhired, having to put new MT's on the current low workload. 


Medical field is 24/7 work unless you work for a clinic or stand alone operation.
I just look at the other cool people working holidays and weekends in the ICU, ER, paramedics,and am glad to be there. When you work in a hospital for a length of time, it becomes a necessary evil to show up at the worst possible times.

Having a family or a life you'd miss from Friday at 5 PM to Monday at 8 PM must be hard and

I think that there is a place for you where they can meet your requirements (M-F). There are plenty of those jobs.
They require that you work in house until your have clean QA for 3 paydays then you can work

All nationals I work for you only work 40 hours unless they approve overtime.

I'm part-time and don't have to work all weekend. I work Tues-Sat.
I've never heard that from Chronicle, of course I didn't see the ad.
The bid has nothing to do with consistancy of work. MTSO cannot control how cosistant work is.
:+
I'll love to know who you work for. I also work every weekend with no extra pay.
It'd be nice to get paid for all the nights and weekends I work.
Like I said - it depends who you work for. I work for a hospital at home - not a company. nm

I know two people who work 3rd shift for Keystrokes on radiology and have a lot of work. Maybe you
on an account that has enough work. I hate to hear that someone doesn't have enough work or that they have a problem because I know that Keystrokes works to find the right account for every person. They do a lot for us but you have to talk to them until you find the right account or volume or hours for you.

I think that a lot of companies are that way but there is a lot of job-hopping in transcription. Everyone is looking for the perfect job but the grass is not always greener on the other side. There are a few MTSO's really are not good but for the most part, the others don't intentionally drive people away. That would not make sense. They need us to work as much as we need them to have the work there for us.


I work on it. Usual amount of work. Not running out but not backlogged either. They seem to have
about the right staffing on it. Hope that helps.
