Man did I get screwed!
I worked for one of the transcription giants for 6 years and left there making $12.61/hr and that was after a raise after nearly 4 years of begging for more $$$
To screwed over
What was the drug? Have you brought this to anyone's attention at your company?
SS also screwed me..
I have 10+ years experience as MT, worked almost 6 years with SS, 3 of them being QA. I felt like I was probably targeted due to my pay rate. I couldn't make the line count as FT, so I changed to PT status, but still worked 40 hours, just couldn't make the 40-hour line count. They hired a bad bach of MTs and expected us to basically re-type reports. Anyway, just letting you know I feel your pain.. and I feel totally screwed by SS. A company I once felt was the best company ever, and I was so loyal to.
Are we going to get screwed if we are MT/ME? I wind up
doing about half transcription and half ASR, so I might have 800 lines of each. I wouldn't get 1200 transcription lines done because of the ASR work, wonder if that will screw me out of a bonus all the way around or if they have some other complicated formula figured out for that scenario?
LOL well I screwed up that sentence but you know what I mean nm

Sounds like you are being screwed.
How is she holding your count? Are you getting paid?
sick of being screwed
I feel the same exact way and with all the continuing education and experience our profession requires it is completely unfair.
May be the same company I used to work for, and they screwed a lot of us over. sm
My old company is hiring again, I see. They gave us this same crap story of why they were going to production, and pretty much everyone on this board heard it then. But what they didn't mention was that line counts weren't being met because they had us on 5 different accounts, training other editors and practically jumping thru hoops. If this is the company you're thinking of joining Kat, then run fast.
Dang. I take it you were screwed by Focus?

don't yell, I know I screwed up....too early..lol..nm

Thanks


Anyone know anything about PMT-Kentucky

PMT Kentucky
I worked for PMT Kentucky for a short time. You have to have a C-phone. They supplied me with one, and they were an extremely great bunch to work for. Pay was on time, people were really nice, it just wasn't my cup of tea. I say apply if you have a C-phone. It is a good company to work for!!!
I worked for Monrovia (poster below who got screwed)
Don't know anything about Santa Ana, but stay away from Monrovia.
They were an awful fit for me. And their DQS software screwed up my harddrive. nm

Yeah I was hired by Wedmedx but I screwed up.

They had even sent me the equipment. I was so excited..it was an ortho position and then I have family medical issues and just one thing after another. There was a misunderstanding. I guess I was supposed to get ahold of them with my new start date and I was waiting for them to contact me once I got all of final paperwork in etc. In any event, when I got ahold of them, they said I was supposed to have followed up by now and wouldnt give me a chance. I was so bummed. I havent found a decent place to call home since then. This was like 2-3 months ago. Good luck to you. The insurance was the main reason I was going to go there too.


Thanks. I think it would hurt even more to be screwed by someone I considered a friend. sm

I had that happen a long time ago.  Fortunately, at the time I didn't need the money. She had called me and was panicked because she was snowed under and wouldn't be able to make TAT.  I worked myself to death all weekend long, but when it came to pay me, there was one excuse after another, and finally she gave me a check ... and it bounced. 


On a happier note, or at least I hope it turns out happy, I wrote to the woman in Virginia again and she finally answered me saying that she had taken care of it and not to bother her again as she had clients to take care of ... whatever.  Maybe this time the old squeaky wheel theory works.


I am sure that not all people without direct deposit are cheats, and I am glad you have found someone you can rely on.  It will just take awhile to get this bad taste out of my mouth and learn to trust again. 


Anyone with exp w/ PMT in Kentucky? Am considering applying there. Thanks! nm

Try PMT in Kentucky. They have an ad on the job board.

PMT/Kentucky/Sherry
The announcement on the job seekers board seems like a pretty good deal for IC, has anyone had any experience with them?  I tried an archive search but didn't come up with anything.  Thanks in advance for any info you have. 
SecureMTSource out of Kentucky
anyone work for them.  They apparently are now MD-IT.  MD-IT is taking over in-house transcription at my place of employment.  I have been offered an at-home position with MD-IT.  Can anyone tell me from SecureMTSource what they have been like to work for.  TIA
iNSCRIBE - Kentucky
I have been contacted by this company...and was hoping for some insight.  Good/bad/disorganized.  Any insight would be greatly appreciated.  TIA.
If this is InScribe, LLC, out of Kentucky (sm)
In my opinion, it would be better to look at a different company.

InScribe in Kentucky
It is the InScribe US in Kentucky, do you know anything about them?
tell me more about InScribe US out of Kentucky
You said you would suggest looking at another company, please tell me more. I am already having issues and haven't even confirmed I was taking the job.
Someone was asking about Inscribe Kentucky? sm
I will be honest, I have only just started, but there are some things I can tell you.

I was informed today that they pay for headers and footers AND spaces, which I didn't ask up front because I have not been paid for these things in years, I thought no one did.

They set you up with a mentor to help you learn their ins and outs, so you have a go-to person, which I think is very helpful. I have, at this point, spoken to both the owners on the phone. They were helpful and pleasant.

While I didn't ask about how many accounts or how many MTs, I believe them to be a medium sized company. They are transparent about who their MTs are and there is a contact list for all of us that we all get. That was different too because most of the places I have worked they really discourage MTs talking between themselves.

There is no IM required which means they don't pester you with instant messages all day long.

This is all I know for now, but it is better than the nothing I was finding out about them.
Inscribe (Kentucky)
Any info would be appreciated regarding this company.  Thanks for your help.
InScribe LLC (Kentucky)
If you have experience working for this company, could you please share how they are to work for, i.e., platform, anything at all you can think of would be of help.  Thank you very much.
Advanced is not in Kentucky

I think it's in Arizona, but anyway.  It's not a bad company to work for.  The only thing is you have to be on pager and give them a schedule yet you are an IC.  The pay is not too bad.  The work runs out and they put you on another account.  The platform is horrible and takes a lot of time to do demographics and such.  There is also patient lists that are pages and pages long. 


I can't really say anything negative other than they hire ICs, but you have to tell them when you'll be working.  They may be more flexible now, who knows.

Short on hours - screwed on holiday pay. My fault (sm)
I didn't educate myself better on how to qualify for holiday bonus. If i had known I would have butted in (outside my scheduled shift) and picked up those hours to make sure I did qualify.

I saw a memo stating no more PTO for Xmas and reminded us about the total hours for holiday pay.

If more and more of us pick up that extra 5 hours a week to be FT what the heck is going to happen.

Happy with the company overall, just grumping cause I feel like I got cheated out of the holiday pay. New employees should have been reminded IMHO.
good,bad,ugly DSG kentucky sm
AKA Dictation Services Group.  Any info appreciated
Funny, cause they are based in Kentucky!

Kentucky MT - I'm not sure I read the post
correctly. Are you saying that you would get upset if the hospital you were working for sent out the BAD work??? If so, I differ with you big time. I work for a hospital and the first thing we do is send out the crappy dictators. The outsource company is paid way more than our transcriptionists are and therefore, should be able to handle the crappy doctors AND do QA. We, of course, send out other work, but first and foremost go the worst of the worst dictators.

I'm not sure if I read your post correctly, so I was just curious

I guess if I got screwed out of my paycheck or got lied to by an employer I'd have a rotten att
This board is a great way to find out about an unsavory company before those things happen to you. If you think warning people about scheisters, liars, bottom feeders, and rip-off artists is amusing, time to double up on your meds, sweetheart.
SD apparently screwed up by hitting "reply all" to an email that was meant
Indians they were using as outsourcers. She accidentally let the cat out of the bag when OSi was denying all along that they used Indian MT's.  I'm sure her "stepping down" was more of a "quit or you're fired" thing, but that's just my take on it.  She was a b*tch, that's for sure, and an incompetant unqualified one at that. QA manager - what a joke.
Merit is what is screwed up. As usual. New managers couldn't care less.

Plenty of kids of stay at home moms are screwed up SM
I am a single mother whose child was in day care from age 20 months until kindergarten. She is turning out a lot better than most of the kids in her school. She is a teenager now and does not drink, she is an honor student. Come on now.... it depends on each individual case. You cannot make a blanket statement like you just did. That is ignorant.
Working is actually a good example for your children.
