Execuscribe - I stand corrected

Posted By: Rochester CMT on 2005-07-30
In Reply to:

Thank you for pointing out actual fraud amount.  I stand corrected. Article states $379,968.  Kodak alleged near $500k.   It was $1.36 million and $632,277 that was ordered to be paid by Linda and husband for damages stemming from the convicted fraud. 


And again, you are correct in that it was not Execuscribe by that name in these particular convictions, but former company name of Emtex - whose assets were then acquired by Execuscribe at a deflated value, and then quickly transferred those Execuscribe stocks to her sons -- which generated a new action, and was declared null and void by the court in an an attempt to "hinger, delay or defraud" her creditors.    So, yes, Execuscribe was named in this court action.  


Maybe I'm off by a few years -- but I remember this business being Emtex, Executive Secretarial, and now Execuscribe.  That's SEVERAL names.  If I'm wrong on that - sorry.  But my point is, one GOOD name should carry you through your whole professional life, don't you think?

I stand corrected...

I see. I stand corrected.

Ahh, I stand corrected. nm

I stand corrected

No, I did not know many of the things you say here.  The only pharmacy techs I know are people with very little training, not like anything you mention, and that does frighten me I must admit. 


I do know that many of the newbies seem to have a poor work ethic and don't seem to have had very much training.  I see that where I work.  And I do know someone who had been in a mentoring program offered by a national and had a horrible experience and barely kept herself alive on what she made. 


I did not know the other things you mentioned.  I am glad you filled me in on these things.  I want to learn all I can about our situation.  I welcome feedback and I sure wish the things you mentioned were discussed here.  I'd be grateful if you could advise me where to turn to find out such things and keep track of what is really going on, because I apparently am not getting the whole story.  I'd also be interested in your ideas for what to do as you seem to know what you're talking about. 


I apologize if I offended you or anyone else. 


oh - I stand corrected. So who's LK?

I stand corrected.....sm
The M-F schedule was not an option when I hired, but that may have just been with the account I hired for.
Stand corrected
yes, I meant between sentences, not words.  See what working all hours of the day does to you?
Then I stand corrected.
Thanks for the clarification.
I stand corrected and apologize to OSi
And, love the red coffee cup and candy. 
You're right, I stand corrected.
I did not accept the offer as I had much more pride and hope for the profession I have chosen.

Also, my reply was not a company bash session and it was entirely professional. I point that out as my professional pride is the reason I declined the offer from Shapin, which was made by a woman who seemed proud of low quality and the insult they are making to our profession.

Now, I can almost promise that no one will post a professional response that would agree with you. Any real professional would never accept the positions they hire for, unless they have drastically changed. And if they HAVE drastically changed, I definitely take back all I say and hope for the best for them and their employees.

Fallyn
I stand corrected. It is HIPAA

I stand corrected. Guess all accounts are not
created equal and sounds like you have a good one. 
You're right - I stand corrected. So much for *rules* NM

I stand corrected. That's good to know. I have found them to be fair also.

Sure I got the email, I stand corrected. Three titled employees are listed & there is one more
that simply has not been announced yet. I will say again, could be nothing at all, could just be a change of guard. Didn't say whatever was going on was good or bad, but wondered what is going on. I will be the first to say change is often a very, very good thing and I am hoping for good!
I think I would rather be corrected by the
dictator that some of the nit-picking QA people who check every a/and/the, every comma, etc; especially love those QA people who believe their way is the only way and it is wrong if they say it is. These are the kind of companies that I want to stay completely away from. It's sad though because some of the companies are probably very good to work for otherwise.
What are you being corrected on?? If it
is account specifics, bone up on them. If it is your style of transcription, i.e., they are following BOS and you aren't, or the other way around. If it is simple mistakes, then take the time to proof your work.
Corrected mistakes - sm
I agree with you about the stupid mistakes that are corrected by the dictator. I feel terrible when the doctor spells out BOWEL or other simple words. The MTs who type like that are a disgrace to the profession. You HAVE to pay attention to every word, know the difference between ileum and ilium, in these diagnostic imaging reports. I don't blame the radiologist for being upset - and the MT deserved being yelled at for it. There is NO excuse. I'm ashamed everytime I have a dictator spell out something so simple, but I do appreciate the occasional spelling of an obscure illness, etc., although I don't trust their spelling, I always check it myself, but their spelling is a help to looking it up. Why throw stones about the offshore MTs when there are MTs here just as bad, or worse? No wonder accounts are constantly changing over to other companies.
Your'e right, the errors have been corrected.
It was written in a fit of passion after just learning that I lost my job, excuse me. I hope you are never put in this position and don't ever get emotional about losing your job. I am sure you can walk on water also.
i corrected myself. PAY ATTENTION LOL

I would rather be corrected than look too stupid. sm
Maybe that poster or emailer or whatever was trying to help the poster not look bad?

I am playing devil's advocate I guess.
Look above, I corrected myself, how rude people are here.nm

Doctors would be okay if you corrected your sentence LOL

TransTech - corrected post

I was offered a position with Transtech today. The recruiter gave me a lot of info, but I completely drew a blank regarding any questions I had. I work for MQ now, and am looking to leave because I believe it is only going to get worse, and I can't take any more cuts in pay. So here goes:


 


1. Do they do ASR, and if so, what is their percentage of line rate (i.e., Medquist currently pays 70%).


2. Do they pay any shift differential?


3. Do they allow split shifts or 10 hour shifts for 4 days if 1 is a weekend day?


4. As far as line rate, they offered me 1.25 cents less a line than I am currently making, but their incentive program, from what I understood, seems pretty decent.


5. Are they easy to work with, QA, supervisors, etc.


Any and all information anyone can provide would be appreciated. This is a big decision I need to make by Monday, and am a little nervous, but think I would like to take the leap!


 


Already corrected this above with the "Oops" post.

I corrected it immediately in my lower post....nm

Well I just re-sent my resume to the corrected email address he gave.
I just got it back saying it is undeliverable. Makes me wonder what type of company this is if they can't get their email straight.
Execuscribe Mon-Fri
Their line commitment minimum is 4000 and you need a c-phone but can work days Mon - Fri. So far so good for me..i'm an employee.

Well, I actually was curious and drove to my local Wegman's to get a copy of RBJ.  Huge article, fairly presented facts, very informative.    No wonder she made "impassioned plea" to editor to not run the story.   Millions in fraud, self-dealing, and unjust enrichment, padded billings, defrauding creditors, fruadulent conveyance, along with other charges/convictions.   Changing your business name several times in 10 or so years.   Now in a $400,000+ home -- guess it beats the view from a jail cell!


Yah, thanks for putting the rest of us honest MTSOs in a negative light.  Smooth move....

I researched this company, too.  But, after reading the Business Journal article -- which is all fact, not just somebody's opinion --- I decided it was in my best interest as an MT with hopefully a long career ahead of me, not to associate myself with a many-time convicted criminal.  People have long memories on this stuff.  But, that's just my opinion. 
Execuscribe
Rochester Business Journal dated 7/22/05. Interesting article about fraud convictions. Worth getting a copy of if you are considering employment there.

I live in the same town as Execuscribe and did not hear anything about legal problems. Can anyone point me in the direction of finding out?
Execuscribe
Thanks I will go check the library for a back issue of this magazine so I can read it myself. As an ex-MTSO whose business she took away, I'd like to read this. I've heard that her largest client is going to a fill in the blank type form and laptops for the doctors (from one of the doctors who work for the client) so we will see how long the company will stay a Fortune 500 company now.
Execuscribe
She paid Kodak an UNDISCLOSED AMOUT OF MONEY. Now, as the article said at the end, they are HOME FREE, yes a half millon dollar home free!

Tom Y. worked at Kodak in finances and was accused of making false payments to Execuscribe, owned by his wife. He was also sending business to people who were paying him a CUTBACK to do so, rather than the cheapest/best people for Kodak.

She was accused of being part of the MASTER PLAN.

She tried desperately in the end to put the company assests into her sons' names, but the court overruled on it.

So she eventually settled out of court and paid Kodak what they wanted. That was a private court case. The CRIMINAL CASE against Tom only was thrown out due to him having the best criminal lawyer in town who kept stalling and then the court said too much time had passed by. Otherwise, he may have done jail time, or at least community service and be on parole.

Has anyone had experience with Execuscribe. They are going to offer me a job.  I now work fulltime at an office and wonder whether I am making a mistake to go with them.

Does anyone have any information good or bad regarding this company? I noticed in some older posts from 2004 that they require you to carry worker's comp insurance - do they still do this?
Execuscribe
Yikes! That's pretty low. Thanks so much for the info! 
Execuscribe
I have been working with Execuscribe for almost 1 year.  Pay may not be great, but they do count other things which other companies do not - i.e., bolding, capitals, italics, et cetera are counted as double letters.  I checked into other companies and actually made more with ExecuScribe because of their added counting.  They now have vacation although it takes a while to be able to take any time off.  Currently we use the C-Phone (although they are phasing that out), Fusion and I'm not sure what else since those are the two that I use (I work on two different accounts).  Hope this helps. 
Execuscribe
Could anyone from Execuscribe tell me about the benefits offered?  Thanks in advance!
Execuscribe
I used to work for Execuscribe and live in the same city...low pay, slow pay and last fall a lot of the management team left to go back and transcribe elsewhere.  Paying on time got better when everyone was made employee but the pay went way down.  Their major account I have heard is giving all new docs laptops and using EMR so they are probably losing them department by department.  Hope this helps.
Execuscribe?
Any comments on how this company is to work for and general rate of pay, dictators, etc.?
