In Reply to: who is ETC? - curious

My friend said she sounded very good and supposedly had direct deposit. Well, she had no deposit and the lady said she would wire the money and apparently did not do that either. I dont like liars.

Ohio MQ office
Welcome aboard.  I've been with them for 10 yrs, now on DocQscribe, love it, never ever out of work...we need the help desperately
I do some overflow for the Ohio office...
I work out of a different MQ office but have been doing some overflow work for the Ohio office. I only work on one account for their office, but it seems to have a lot of work. Not too many ESL docs, though there are a couple of tough ones. With the account I am on, mostly the dictators just speak very rapidly, but with time I've been able to get more comfortable with them.

Good luck to you!
Ohio office closing
I remember something about MQ consolidating down to just four regional offices, but never heard of the Ohio office closing.  Columbus is the only one in Ohio, but I am still curious as to where this info came from?
MQ Ohio office closing
This is to MQ'r--previously on the board there was a posting that the MQ Ohio office was going to be closed at the end of the year, if this is the only office left in Ohio, do you know where you would be transferred to. I thought you would be transferred to another office in Ohio but seeing that this is the only one that is not going to work. From what I have read on the board I would hope that it is not to the Amherst office.
MedScribe Services (Ohio)

 


Hi! Would anyone be able to offer any comments regarding this company based out of Ohio?  Any info appreciated!   



MQ Ohio office closing-why not Amherst

What I don't understand is why they are closing an office that is obviously run very well--I don't think I have every seen anything but good about this office and yet they are closing it and continuing to leave the Amherst office open. What is wrong with this picture!!!!


 


Something is not right here but yet nothing is being done


MedScribe Services out of Dayton, Ohio
I was offered a position with this company, and I was hoping that someone could give me some information about them...the good or bad!  I did check the archives, but I only found information on the MedScribes in Florida and New Jersey.   Thank you very much for your help!
Can anyone working for the Ohio MQ office tell me who they are and are the accounts decent to do or
are there a lot of ESLs. Thanks for any info you have.
Anyone have CURRENT p.r.n. Medical Services (OHIO) info
Who works/worked with this company and can share their experiences? This is the company out of Ohio. (Archive info is from 2007 and uninformative. The website is even less informative for careers with them.) What is the web-based platform they now use and how do/did you like it? Their ads offer 8 to 10 cpl. What is their definition of the line?
Can anyone from the Ohio MQ office give me a contact person and a phone number to call so I can talk
to someone there without getting a lot of other people involved before I find out what kind of accounts they have to offer. I am interested in transferring from my current office but would like to speak with someone up there first. Even an email address of someone would help.
Office Pro Services
Help with ESL overflow.  Does that mean that's all you're going to get?  Does that mean you get the ESL nobody wants?  No English speaking docs in Kentucky?  All at 7 cpl.  They should be ashamed.
Alternate Office Services
Does anyone work for this company or has heard anything about them?
Does anyone know anything about sandidge office services...s/m

Are they are good company to work with?


Anybody heard of Bureau of Office Services?

Does anyone have any experience with this company?  They are in Illinois.


 


TIA

Tammy are you a QA editor? sm
If so, would you please email me?  I have a few questions.  Thanks so much.
Tammy Arizona - New at Webmedx
Tammy,

As a former trainer at Webmedx (I retired) I must tell you that you are incorrect about typing in a web page. You are typing in Word, even though it may not appear that way.

As far as SHORTHAND, what exactly are you doing when it doesn't work? There are reasons for SH not working and there are very simple fixes built into the SH program. I was the SH instructor so, yes, I do know that it is not the program but rather something the MT does.

I own my own SH program and still use it daily, not just for transcribing. Try setting your Pause (under Preferences) to 20 msec after every 1 character and see if the helps you. You might also check to see what Text Transfer Method you are using, if you are using Clipboard Paste try switching to “keystrokes” although a little slower “pulling in” it is smoother and works every time.

Also, do you have physician normals in your SH program? By putting normals in you can definitely increase your line production.

Do you have regular phrases and all your medications in your SH? If you put in medications, did you also put in the dosing (where possible)?

I would hate to see anyone leave Webmedx. I understand ESLs are difficult - but after a while and with the use of the SH program one can go right along.

Further, if you are having problems getting your line count to 150 LPH (which I voted against but lost - I like 130-140 LPH) have you asked either trainer for help? The trainers are great and they are there long after you have finished your initial training to assist you in any way they can.

I hope you decide to stay!

PS: IMHO three weeks is not a fair trial/assessment - give it about 3 months at minimum.

Thank you, Tammy, for clearing things up for us. We are certainly
looking forward to your All American business taking off and becoming a great success.  It was a kind gesture that you took the time to explain your business plan.  Not many companies are that open.
I think the COO, Tammy, tried to explain their connection on here a week or two ago...
She sounded very nice..something about taking over their overseas offshoring company's contracts etc..I honestly still do not understand what they are doing unless they got bought out. Why else would you supposedly phase out some of your business and start another, other than maybe they have gotten a bad rap while doing business as Synthescribe.  I'm just concerned about going forward because another MT commented how bad the CEO was, and she is the same one at AAmT, or whatever its initials are LOL
Please everyone, read the post made by Tammy Johson above. It explains everything.

The main office was in Bolingbrook but they built an office in Yorkville last fall. SM
I think that the owners live in Yorkville, so it was built close to their house. Nice office, just pretty far out.
Weekly? Services are lucky if they get paid twice a month. Generally, services bill out to their

Just curious, is the MQ Nashville office the old Lanier office? nm

I don't work in the office and never claimed to. I am just saying that since the new office open
October with everyone of the admin staff in one place, these problems do not occur any more.
info on AMD Services/AmeriMed Data Services
Please help me. Does anyone know anything about AMD Services or AmeriMed Data Services. I have been offered a position with them and need to know if they pay good, etc. before I accept a position with them. Thanks in advance.

KP
Can't get paid in the office if you don't work in the office.
JLG has MT's working at home, not in the office, not to mention working out of state.  The mail is the only way to get paid since they have temporarily suspended direct deposit.  The only ones getting paid on time are the ones that do work in the office, like the management and people answering the phone. 
Closed FW office, Indianapolis office too. nm

MQ Ohio CSC

Ohio has to be one of the best offices to work for in the MQ system. My girlfriend got transferred there a couple of months ago and has never run out of work yet and she is only in one account, communications is great, all kind of incentives that you do not have to ask for---just my luck when I asked to be transferred there, supposedly there is a freeze on transfers and I am stuck in the northeast


 


Keep up the good work Ohio--it is appreciated by the MT's that work there.


OHIO MQ
You must be management, or a favorite, or something! That is NOT how it is. I have been there for 5 years+. Did someone ask you to post that to boost morale or what?
Ohio MQ
I hope you hold that high opinion after you've been there awhile. You DO run out of work, poor communication, lots of luck getting a raise. If there is any question or problem, you cannot get a response. Good luck.
Ohio MQ
If i didn't know you were talking about Ohio, I would have thought you were talking about foxboro and amherst. My girlfriends dealing with the Ohio office has been nothing but good and actually i know of at least 3 others that were in my old office before it closed and they opted to go to Ohio rather than be transferred to foxboro and it has worked out great for them. maybe with the lack of work in foxboro, that could be why she was transferred. i always thought the foxboro office would close and just merge with the amherst office anyways. after all i thought the goal of MQ was to have all their accounts on the platform and those of us that are still in foxboro are on MTS so are we a dying breed
Try Ohio...
Ohio MQ is awesome - plenty of work!
MQ/OHIO...
I have all those things U want working 4 MQ/Ohio...come join me in the Buckeye State, where the grass is always greener....
MQ/Ohio - sm
Would you email me and tell me how to go about contacting that particular office? I was offered a job by MQ about a month ago, but it was for the Denver office. They told me that was the only place that had a radiology position....thanks greenfl3@yahoo.com
Ohio MQ-What is not to like

Does she like working for the Ohio office over the Amherst/Foxboro office??? What is not to like, she is in ONE account and always has work, when transferred was told that she would be paid extra for working after 3PM, working on the week-ends, and working on the holidays and the most important thing about all this is that she did not have to ask, this is the  norm at the Ohio office, Again and again it is stated, why are not all the MQ offices run the same?????? Maybe if they were, it would not be so miserable working for the Amherst office. We are not asking for too much, just to have the chance to make a living.

PDA out of Ohio

Two girls in my office type for PDA at home at night and love both the owners. They are very fair and helpful.  When they have QA questions, they get right back to them

Ohio MT

They are out of Ohio

p.r.n. in Ohio
I worked for them for a short time over the summer; very nice and laid back folks.  Pay is good for experienced MTs and always on time!!!  I really enjoyed working for them and only left because I'm working a full-time employee status job now with Axolotyl. 
Ohio transfer
You are so lucky--the Ohio office is a great place to work for, all kinds of incentives and you do not have to ask for them, plenty of work--good luck--you will enjoying working there, my girlfriend asked to be transferred there from Foxboro about 3 months ago and it has turned out to be the best move that she could have made. She is in one acccount and has all the work that she needs--what I don't understand is if there is so much work in the amherst office and accounts that are out of TAT, why you were not transferred there????
Felicia--go to Ohio
the Ohio office is the best-my friend is there and always gets her lines and that is only in one account--if you can get transferred to Ohio, please go there--stay away from the NE
MQ Columbus/OHIO SC

Not sure how long you have been with Columbus Buffy, but Columbus is now the ONLY Ohio CSC, ergo called the Ohio CSC.  Cleveland, Toledo, Dayton & Cincinnati were consolidated 2 years ago under the Columbus office to form the Ohio CSC.  Now many of my old timer's that I started with inhouse went home to either work or retire. 


I've been with them for 21 years now (starting with the old Transcriptions Limited) and have been through more supervisors, coordinator's and managers than I care to think about, but I honestly believe the reason we are so successful now is that our operations manager has been there/done that.  Started as an inhouse M/assistant, worked up a few notches into various positions IE; scheduling, weekend coordinator, supe, etc.  Went home to MT for a while then came back in a few years back and really worked her way up into the present position.  Her ability to know what's needed all the way around, delegate and common sense attitude really speaks for itself in how successful we are. 


Nope, never met the OM, only talked to her on the phone over the years and am not *the cheerleader*.  Only stating what I know for a fact and what works for my CSC.


They are located in Ohio....sm
An offshoot of one of the major health systems here in the Akron area. Were just recently started and are trying to get their feet wet in the national arena. Primarily were doing nothing but local work just a few months ago and very disorganized at the time. Don't know what they're like now. Benefits seemed good, comparable, but were just getting started. Originally wanted 150 lph with 98% quality and a rather harsh grading scale. For instance, medical word misuse was minus 5 percentage points, omitted (consequential) dictation minus 5 points, medical misspelling minus 3 points, and so on.... Hope this helps!

Has any one heard of Physicians First Transcription company, or Priority Transcription Company?


Thanks,
