Why don't you try contacting --sm
Fox News, as they seem to be following this pretty closely and they may be able to direct you to someone or somewhere for help. Good Luck to you and your kitty!
Were you contacting him regarding a position?
What are they looking for now?  Do you know if they have a website?
I too suggest contacting them. sm
From my experience they are very happy to try to work things out with you. 
Only that they would be contacting me this week.
I got an email from tammy? who said someone would contact me this week, so we'll see.
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.


 


About contacting an attorney - sm

I too would like answers because half a truth is worse than a total lie because you mislead with half the truth and do much damage.  Please clarify these issues for us.


1.  Why would the company go to all the trouble to pull this two-bit prank when they could just say good bye to you if they wanted to.  You have been ranting to all of us on shift with you for months about how you have been mistreated and were going to sue the company and demand unemployment.  You did not tell the good MTs here who are ready to take your side and defend your position that All Type has a 3 strike rule and that you have told several of us that you were written up once for failing to make production of 1200 lines a day and then spewing some pretty foul language in an email to a supervisor about them making you do OP notes and type ESLs and how that was not fair to you.  It is an acute care hospital.  That is what we do.  Do you remember telling us about being written up for falsifying your time card?  Honestly, that is pretty serious.  If you were the one telling us that, i cannot even imagine what you are not telling us and what your personnel file looks like. 


2.  I have not seen anyone leave, voluntarily or involuntarily on our team in some time.  So who are you referencing when you say a lot of people quit or were fired.  No one stays at a company that is horrendous and unfair out of the kindness of their heart.  Are you telling us you just felt sorry for the company and the management team you hated and stayed to help them out? 


3.  Evidently you believe that you are a very high caliber employee and MT.  I would think you would be able to go anywhere and find a perfectly wonderful job.  I know most companies are just begging for real talent.  Unemployment is probably your only alternative because we both know that you are NOT capable of working in any acute care setting - and unemployment and legal sources are going to laugh you out of the offices if you tell them the truth! Even if you fail to tell them the real story, your history is well documented.   


4.  From all of the foul statements you have made about this company and their management for months and threatening legal ramifications if they mess with you - I wonder why you would want to be a part of a company that you have made clear to any of us who will listen how much you hate All Type and all of the management.  I also wonder if you do not know that from the beginning when you started making statements to the rest of us about lawsuits - that the company most surely handed your file over to a legal team.  I suspect the legal department has been involved in all of this for several months. 


Good luck missy.  I have worked with you for well over a year and your professional behavior and abilities leave a lot to be desired.  You have been so disruptive that most of your team has blocked you from IM and we are all glad that your drama from 4-12 everyday is finally done.  You should have been doing your job instead of driving us all crazy with your IMs and maybe, just maybe this company would have valued you.  As it is, what goes around comes around and your cheating, backstabbing, and lies came back around to you.  I salute Karma!!!


Try contacting someone who has been there for a while to get the real story
you cant go by what someone says that is not there any longer. They are probably holding a grudge and will speak poorly of a company. you only get one side of the story and not necessarily the correct one.

I, myself, have been there for 2 years and plan to be at TH for a long time.

No they dont have incentives. Usually those who do provide incentive lower your base rate and make it look like you are getting extra.

No they dont have shift differential because if they hire you for 2nd shift, they normally pay you a little higher to begin with.

They DO PAY Holiday pay but you have to work if you dont ask off. Thus, you get holiday pay plus your line count which comes out to be double time like you are supposed to be paid.

How many companies do that?

NONE that I know of except TH.

Of course no company is perfect and if there is, good luck finding one.

I get paid on time, pick my own schedule, expected to work my schedule or notify them if I cannot stick to it for some reason, get QA feedback respectively, etc.

They have been growing in size and have been adding management to deal with the size. That is the only change I have seen in management.

I suggest contacting Medware
wanting to know information that should come directly from them, not people "that they think they are in the know."
If you're contacting clients ...
maybe they'd be interested in the following.

Extortion threat to patients' records
Clients not informed of India staff's breach

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2004/04/02/MNGI75VIEB1.DTL

Try contacting them again. Navesys has been a blessing for me.
I took a job with Navesys a few months ago.  The work has been steady and so have my weekly paychecks. 
Contacting labor board.

Could some one tell me how to go about contacting the labor board about an issue with my employer?  Since I am a remote MT do I contact the labor board in my state or the state my employer is based?  This has to do with pay that I believe was deliberately shorted out of my paycheck as a retribution because I did not type reports on my secondary account that were approaching TAT when I was contacted about it by instant messenger an hour after my shift was over.  I wasn't even at my desk an hour after my shift was over.  I also found out a couple days after the fact that an email from my account manager's supervisor was sent to an email account I no longer use stating that I was requested by my AM to type some reports so they don't go out of TAT and would I please log on and complete these reports. 


Now, lo and behold, my paycheck will be short by almost 800 lines because these 800 lines supposedly sat in QA and weren't completed by the time the pay period ended, even though my shift ended at 4 p.m. on the last day of the pay period.  I have worked for this company for a whole year and this is the first time I have ever heard that the MT is not credited the lines produced until cleared by QA...and I'm not even on 100% QA.  Furthermore, I can't see how I would have even SENT 800 lines to QA in a day.  After multiple emails to both my AM and her supervisor requesting some sort of documentation where these lines went to, I still have heard nothing in regards to this and I'm fed up.  Is this something the labor board will even handle?


I put a blurb about not contacting until a mutual agreement is met. nm
tt
I love the one where the MT was bashing a company for not contacting her..

LOL. I read too fast and thought you were contacting her about porn work. nm
nm
Person from corporate contacting me via email regarding my posting today
I have no reason to meet with you, have a good job and certainly do not care to discuss with you where you send your work. I know what I read and it was quoted by a top official at your company. Even though you said the newspaper slanted the story like they wanted it to read, I saw quotes and never saw where the paper did a retracation of the story.
allegiant
I spoke with a woman from there today. I have seen a few posts on other sites about them, nothing bad. The woman was very friendly. The pay she told me was 4 cpl during training, and 7 cpl after making 98%. Keep in mind that I am a new MT, so this pay rate may have that factored in.
Sorry...this was about Allegiant. nm
s
To Allegiant MT (SM)

Would you kindly answer the following questions as I am seriously considering placing my resume with Allegiant.  I would really appreciate your input. 


 


What if something happens and you cannot type the required amount per day (sickness, doctor app.,etc.)


Are there many ESLs


On average how many doctors do you transcribe for? 


Do you get to keep the same doctors or are you switched around a lot?


Do you ever run out of work?


Do you find the EMDAT system user friendly?


Are you required to buy any software, etc.?


Is high speed internet required?


Is all work IC with no benefits?


Do they have full time work?


Allegiant
I LOVE working for Allegiant. The owners are awesome ladies who are transcriptionists too, so they understand your needs and truly do care about you. My account is clinic work (Monday-Friday), a few ESLs but vast majority are good dictators. It took me about two months to get up to speed...learning new system, new accounts, new voices, adding tons of new autokeys...I started in mid May and now can sign on, transcribe for 2, maybe 2-1/2 hours, and reach my required 500-line limit for the day. Of course, you're always welcome to do more when work is available (which is pretty much all the time except for Monday mornings). Sometimes I get up in the middle of the night to work, sometimes it's mid day, sometimes late in the evening.

I truly couldn't be happier working for anyone else. Of course, there are those who say the pay is not up to standard. But...I'm left alone to do my job, I work when I choose to, I don't have to work weekends, and I'm doing clinic notes (not complicated surgeries), so it's pretty basic transcription without a lot of research involved.

Allegiant Transcription completely suits my needs. I'm one happy camper! Please feel free to email me.
Allegiant
This company has a job posted here and I was thinking to apply.  I would like to hear good/bad things about this company, pay rate fair, how are they to work with.  They do say, though, the platform is EMDAT, which I have heard is a bear to work on.  What is your opinion?  Thanks
Allegiant
Excellent company to work for.  Always pay on time.  Owner is great and very helpful.  I love EMDAT and have been working with it for 6 years.  Best of Luck.
Allegiant
I have been unable to contact them also.
allegiant
QA is great - pay is always on time or early. Have been with them since last winter.
allegiant
I also have been with them since November. It is a smaller company growing very quickly.  Pay is always on time.  Owner is great. 
Try Allegiant.
They are clinic.
Allegiant
I have worked for the company before. Good company, good dictators, part-time work, easy platform, 1 or 2 accounts, not the best pay, IC status, not so much work anymore.
ALLEGIANT ANYONE????? (nm)
nm
Allegiant......
I don't work for them but someone that does told me they are very easy to work for, very family friendly, that you work your designated times and have it back within 24 hours. EMDAT has a line count built in and she says she checked it against another at the beginning and it is very accurate. You set your own days but must meet TAT and not take advantage. That's all I know.
Allegiant
Offered a position with Allegiant.  I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if their line rate is character or gross.  Are there still companies out there that pay by the gross line? 
Allegiant
I worked for them briefly. Super nice owner. Pay's a little low, but overall, it is a great company.
Allegiant Transcription?
Anyone with any information on this company?
Allegiant transcription
I was offered a job by Allegiant Transcription. I was told that 1st check could be delayed for 6 weeks depending on when the clint pays them. I am a little worried that this is not a reliable company. HELP PLEASE!
Anyone know anything about Allegiant Transcription Co? If so...sm
please respond..How is their pay scale, any benefits, pay on time, dictators...TIA!  Happy MT week all!

I am looking for a company that will let me make my own hours.  I just applied with Allegiant.  If anyone can give me any information about them I'd greatly appreciate it.  Thanks in advance and have a great holiday weekend 
Allegiant and Dial-Up???
While we're on the subject does anyone know if Allegiant and their EMDAT program are compatible with dial-up? I feel your pain, allinadayswork, as I'm in the same boat. However, I suppose we could get satellite if we could afford it but I see a lot of companies specify no satellite also. Living in the sticks does have its drawbacks! As for MedQuist, when I was supposed to switch over to their DocQScribe program the techies couldn't get it to work and they finally figured out that my dial-up connection was too slow. So not all dial-ups are created equal! MY ISP provider's recommendation was move to town. Good luck to you!
Allegiant Transcription

Has anyone ever heard of this company or had any experience with them? 


Allegiant, You See Solutions, etc - sm
You can even go to www.emdat.com and they have a list of the different companies that utilize their program.
Is Allegiant still hiring?

I was wondering if they're still hiring. I'm having trouble getting in touch with with anyone there.


Allegiant Transcription
Anybody heard of this transcription service? I can't find much on them, which may be a good thing I hope, since I just accepted a position with them.  I know they use Emdat, but how is the QA staff and is pay in time?  TIA
Allegiant Transcription
Can anyone give me any info on Allegiant? I would like to know line rate, how often they pay, and schedule flexibility. I would appreciate the info. Thanks.
Does anyone currently work for Allegiant? (sm)

Just wondering if anyone currently working for Allegiant could give me some info?  Your likes and dislikes about the company, and if you could answer the following questions.


Can you work part-time?


Plenty of work?


Good dictators?


Are you assigned to just a few accounts or do you have a lot of accounts assigned to you?


Is their platform easy to learn and easy to use?


Anything else you can think of about the company that would be useful info?


Thanks in advance!
