Heres to you OP...
It's not about a SUDDEN outrage that HIS offshores...the outrage is in their taking the stand of offshoring ALL their work with no regard for their U.S. employees...it's about their putting their bottom line ahead of all things at the consequence of their U.S. employees...it's about the fact that the facilities they contract with are okay with what they are doing. You may say that you care but your posts are proof that you don't.
Heres my experience

When I worked for Precyse none of my e-mails were answered.  Not even IM's.  Which is basically the reason I left.  They were questions about a second account...not b.s. either.


Now, the MTSO that I have been with since I finished Career Step... They are the best two women in the world to work for.  It is a really small company and they rarely hire. They haven't hired anyone since I started. But they are the best and they really put their MTs first. 


Heres a suggestion,,,,,
Maybe save all of your unanswered emails in a folder.  Then, when you get swamped with emails, resend the batch of unanswered ones and ask for a reply.  At least you know they are there at that time. 
Your link is broken.....see inside for correct link:

you obviously don't chat much
sd is said. Standard shorthand on chatboards. Why would something so miniscule and insignificant bother you? like I s-a-i-d, you have some real issues that need working on. I am not the one capping and underlining and bolding it, the stupid site is.

Chat, anyone?!

Would like to chat with anyone
who has worked (or does work) for Opti-Script out of State College, PA.  I am considering getting another PT job.  Any information would be helpful.  Feel free to email me or respond here.  Thanks!
chat room
Does anyone ever use the chat room? 
newbie chat
I don't remember how to do it anymore, but know there is a way we could set up our own group chat for the account on yahoo or here. Anyone interested? E-mail and I will see if I can set it up.
gros chat

Non, cher, embrasser mes grauau DE mais.


(sorry, no direct translation for 'grits' on Google Translator)


gros chat

Back around the turn of the century, my school offered had Spanish and Latin.  I did four years of Latin.  Besides, I think French makes you sound like you have a permanent sinus condition. 


There is a restaurant near my home, run by a French family, and it is tres drole to be greeted with a bon jour and thanked with a merci.  On the other hand, watching customers try to play along with their high school French is also quite amusing because try as they might, they just cannot get the staff to understand what they say.  Que?  Que?  Garrison Keillor's skit about 'Cafe Berf ' is not too far off the mark.


Also, any request for something not standard issue is rudely dismissed.  I was once served a chocolate mousse in a tall, tapering tulip glass so that the bottom 1/3 was inaccessible with the soup spoon I had been given.  Might I have a dessert spoon?  Non!  An iced tea spoon, perhaps?  NON!  (he says, holding up the teaspoon)  Zees ees ze spoon!  So I calmly picked up the proper utensil (my mousse knife) and scraped the dessert out of the glass under his horrified gaze. 


Gotta love 'em!


Get real, the MTs IM each other all the time and chat sm
I talk with other MTs daily on IM and have never been told not to.  You can talk to them outside of work if you get their personal email, have never been told not to do that either.  They only limit you if you allow it.  There is freedom of speech in the U.S.  Sharing line rates is just stupid, it's your income and no one elses business, they aren't afraid of that.  If anything they don't want people complaining about them, which is understandable - if you worked in- house and they heard you complaining all the time at a hospital, they'd send you to the door or have a serious talk.  Why should an outsourcing company be any different.  We are employees using their equipment plain and simple.  As for them being like a Big Brother, get real, it's just a scare tactic for you to think they are watching your every move, they don't have time for that, they don't have that many people to do that and way more important stuff to do because we share them with the clients and they have needs too.  You are just way to paranoid.
If you are running out of work, you need to chat w/your mgr. sm
No one should run out of work consistently; you should be trained on 1-2 backup accounts so that doesn't happen. On rare occasions, like holiday periods, I do run out during my shift and I do try to make up outside my 12-hr flex, or on another day off. It happens so seldom that I usually take PTO or unpaid time instead.

If you consistently do not work 35-40 hours, then yes you lose full-time benefits.
Amanda, you can use the live-chat (sm)
and they will help you trouble shoot.  If you go to the screen for billing, you will see information there on how to live chat for technical issues.  Hope this helps.
Thanks, Rennie, for answers in the chat room! NM

I don't get the constant chat about "overhired at Webmedx" - sm
My accounts are constantly running overtime. My STM is asking for OT on at least 3 accounts today and has been for the past month. If you are running out of work, ASK SOMEONE for more!
How does a chat board assist an MTSO with nonpayment issues?
Just asking, not finding the correlation between the two, and clarification would be appreciated for now and the future.
where is the MQ link

I do not see the MQ link to the left of the page anymore.  Was it moved?


 


MQ Link

To sm:


I am sorry for my post. I did not really see the Medquist menu at the left margin as of the time I posted my suggestion. It seems the link has been deleted for some time, as some viewers have just complained. 


Thanks,

see link below
It's an SE position.  Fortunately I'm a vet and can get my healthcare at the V.A.  I'll figure something out later, but right now I need an INCOME since MQ has messed me up royally.  I may have other places I could find health insurance, maybe through the small business organization or something. Ill miss my PTO, but, hey, nothing is perfect :)
no link for me
Since the boards went through an update (about the time the MQ board was made) I haven't been able to see any specialty boards listed on the left anymore, just Top, Home, and Contact.  I have to go to Home to see the list of the specialty boards and for some reason MQ board is not even on there with the others. 
Try this link.
When the link opens up, look on the left-hand side under News & Info, and there is a section called message board.   If this link doesn't work go to yahoo.com and click on finance.  When the finance page opens up, type trcr at the top of the page where it says enter symbol(s).  The message board link will be on the left-hand side of that page too. 
Link to another link. Look for changes soon

I don't work for CyMed, but I saw this link posted on another board.  It seems to have a little information.

They give me a check and a nice luncheon. I've only been working for them for 3 months so I was pleasantly surprised that they invited me since I don't work in-house.

Read the title and body. She says she is not an OFFICIAL recruiter but likes to refer MTs.

Here's a link when I was asking about them
a while ago.  I did contact them and told me only full-time positions but that's all I really asked about so don't know anything more.  You might get some hits if you put the name in the Google search at top and click on search MT Stars.
Here's a link.
This has a couple of them.

AHIMA looked into it, suggested everyone do VBC and why. Clients, I suppose, would be the ones to insist on VBR because they can check bills for accuracy.

However, read this one addressing all from MTs voice in the matter, you will love it:

Not sure if this will get you the full 2-page story --- but absolutely worth spending the $1.75 to get the paper if it does not.

It's actually 10-13 cpl. Here's the link from a post below. nm

Your link is not working.....sm
also, do you know what specialties they are hiring for? Thanks!
Here is a link to the website (sm)
where you can order the book.
OK... I really want to see some kind of link here. sm
I don't believe this for a second. I believe this poster is just trying to stir things up. If this were really true, then the OP would have posted a link or would have provided the source of the information (the news source) so this could be verified. Otherwise, if no link/source is provided where we can verify this, I would just assume this poster is a troll.
