Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

Hosp's. would HAVE to pay more if we could stem

Posted By: the hemorrhage of work offshore - sm on 2007-10-27
In Reply to: Some things to consider that factor into line rates. sm - Small MTSO

by continuing to sound off to anyone in this country that will listen. Why should the US worker subsidize offshore companies by sitting and watching their futures in MT dry up?

The tight TATs are the stem of it, the

root of the problem is the offshoring that can/will be done if we don't perform.  Too many offshore entities just waiting to grab our work. 


 


No ESL's? Maybe a clinic, but never a hosp or MTSO.
In this business, it'd be rare to find an account/hospital/MTSO without ESLs. It's part of reality. And keep in mind that whitebread docs can be worse that ESLs, by far. If you REALLY don't want to do ESLs, cruise the clinics in your vicinity, interview each doc to listen to them speak (ideally get them to do a test dictation for you), and make them an offer they can't refuse.

Seriously, though, you might look for companies that have midwest accounts/are located in the midwest, as the ESL ratio often is lower in the midwest states.

And if that doesn't work out you might look into legal transcription. Anyone notice that there seem to be fewer ESL lawyers than doctors? Lol....
If a lot of MTs, hosp. personnel, & docs are on all

Are the ones who lost their main hospital on 6/3. Good for them. Not great for the rest of us. :(
Does anyone know what services the Hosp. of Univ. of Pa. uses or who to contact there for info of MT
work.
ho ho ho but the hosp can play Russian Roulette w/going to court with

Those medical records became cheaper for hospitals how?  When they go to court with those expensive incorrect records and LOSE, wonder if they think it was cheaper?


 


If things don't work out,, the Diskriter FL Hosp position (sm)
Pays for downtime when work runs out and benefits are pretty decent.

Glad to hear things are better. Hang in there. I know how hard it can be... this profession just isn't what it used to be.

Good luck to you!!
