In Reply to: More OSi accounts going to speech recognition - anyone know any more? sm
I'm wondering about these several accounts going with speech recognition (many accounts that I have worked on), and what that will mean for us in the long-term.

OSi with part time health insurance and paid time off
OSi does offer health insurance and paid time off for part time. Yes, there have been changes. Yes, there will probably be more changes. I don't see anywhere that hasn't had changes. If they don't change they will be out of business the way the economy is these days, just like some other companies. If they don't make money, then I don't make money. So, what is so different with OSi compared to other companies? I see complaints constantly about all companies. I don't think it is the fault of the company that they outsource or use voice recognition. It just is life on life's terms these days. There is still enough work for us, at least for me. 
Is it still being paid on time if you are paid on the 1st and 15th.....
and if the 15th falls on a Saturday getting paid on the 17th? My bank is open and posts on Saturday that means I am not being paid on the 15th doesn't? This has happened a lot lately.
I've been there quite a while, pay on time, growth spurt right now, so good time to get on board,
new accounts and lots of work, and before someone says it, I'm not management, just an employee.
Ugh - well I did all my work on time and I expect to be paid on time.
The phone company doesn't wait, the cable company doesn't wait, and the electric company doesn't wait for their money either - all of which I need to pay in order to do my job. I work when I am supposed to, I help when behind, and give 110%, and I ask for my check to be on time.
I think if an MTSO is going to have to mail checks they should do so priority to make up for the delay.
I've been paid up to
$20 an hour home based. Have also been paid 5 cpl and 3 cpl, making more at 3 cpl, just because the MTs were more experienced and less corrections were necessary. Most companies are offering $14 an hour, which is an insult IMO.
Nope. I have gotten paid on time every time.
You must be thinking of somewhere else.
I wouldn't personally want to be paid that way, but I've heard
of people that have and they didn't seem to mind. I guess it really depends on how much per page. I remember when it was $1. I think it's $2 now so if you do say 1-1/4 pages and get $4 for it, I'd say that's good. But you still only get $4 even if it's 2 full pages. Of course it depends too on the font size they use. That's why I'd rather just get a line rate. Or they might also pay you 1/4 the rate of 1 page if that's all you type. There's a lot of if's. You need to ask questions.
I've worked for Ubiqus for 2 years now and I get paid every two weeks.
I really enjoy the work because it's advisory board meetings, round table discussions, and big conferences of all fields of medicine. I started with them right after I graduated and I've never done any of the doctor dictation, I like this work better.
Disagree with this. Every company I've worked for paid for normals.

May I ask if not getting paid on TIME

Always paid on time....sm
Nice folks to work for - small agency. When I was with them, they paid weekly (never late). The problem I had was that they would assign new accounts or new doctors to you without notifying you first.
Not paid on time
The only negative I have heard about this company is that they DO NOT pay their MTs on time. MTs are having to BEG for their paycheck, which is not professional at all!
Never - always get paid on time

paid on time
If you want paid on time, health insurance, PTO, good feedback, please come to work for Keystrokes. I started in January and would not leave to go anywhere else. The company is hiring now and needs basic 4 MTs. I'll get off my soapbox now. Thanks.
Because we don't get paid for down time
they would have to mark the hours as not working and thus not getting paid.
Paid time off
Welcome to the real world!!! If you are low man on the totem pole do NOT expect T-day or Xmas off -- those holidays truly belong to the MTs whom have been with the company for years. You can't even be expected to work outside in the corporate world and have a 2 week paid vacation after a year !
I work them now..always been paid on time
and the changes that might be coming
PAID DOWN TIME by Diskriter - sm
Who are they kidding? I have to agree with the above poster, Diskriter does make Medquist look like a wonderful company. IT EVEN MAKES Spheris LOOK GOOD!
By the way, when did Diskriter start hiring PT????
I do not get 3-4 months paid time off
every year. I do work 50 out of 52 weeks.
Paid on time, but not good.

I always got paid on time at Nicholas..sm
I think there were possibly a couple of times where it was 2-3 days late, but she always let us know what was going on ... she's a nice lady to work for, friendly and flexible.
Biggest drawback for me was pay was only 7 cpl at the time (about 4-5 years ago), and there was slight disorganization due to rapid growth. New tech issues, specs, staff changes, etc. Decent dictators, though, and I liked working there. I left due to the pay.
All that being said, I now have my own MT service, and I personally do not agree with paying ICs when an MTSO gets paid. I consider that a business expense like any other, and I allow for and recoup those costs from the clients accordingly. An MTSO's collection issues/methods should not be the IC's problem, IMO. I believe an IC has the right to expect regular payment for services rendered.
If you can accept the payment arrangement knowing there MIGHT be times you'll have to wait, it's a nice place to work, though.
Got paid, but once again not for all my lines. Third time in a row
I have been shorted. I'm done.
Cindy always paid me on time...
When I was there earlier this summer she paid once a week with a 1-week holdback (so you should get your first check in a couple weeks).
I have worked for her twice...for a while in 2007 and a while in 2008 and never had a problem with pay. In fact, her line counts usually came out higher than mine.
Good luck, I hope you like your job there.
An IC should not expect to be paid on time!
Then, the MTSO should not be expected to get her labor provided either. My goodness! What nerve! Good luck to you in recovering your much-deserved pay!
There is no paid PTO or sick time.
They still have not provided the *'much more to come'* benefits. I have the most sour and unhelpful team lead. Just about any company would be better than Focus.
But, have you always been paid, and in time for bills
Are they dependable, and good income, really need to know. If the paper check is dependable, that would be okay, but really need to know specifics on reliability of pay, company, etc. Thanks again.
Are you paid for your time to look up names, etc? nm

AND I SUPPOSE YOU GOT PAID ON TIME LAST PAY PERIOD? NM

Can you elaborate? Do you get paid on time? Do you have enough work? sm
Are you radiology or acute care? What kind of problems?
How do MTs get paid if it is not on time sheet. Are they just working to keep
p
In the past 4 years I have always been paid on time
x
P.S. I am full-time too and they have paid holidays. (nm)

Above post asks do you get paid for your TIME to
x
Umm, I am paid every other Friday, on time. Work

They have NO paid sick or vacation time
You will likely not find any full timers who are happy there.
This is the first time I've seen a co SM
have to communicate with their own employees on someone else's FREE message board. Big turnoff.
I did some work ON MY TIME helping them and Rebecca never paid me either.
Bad way to run a company.
Pay on time, do have direct deposit, paid every 2 weeks.nm

I worked for them shortly. They were very nice and paid well and on time. sm
This what I did not like. On the account I had, each report had to be saved separately and then individually sent. It seemed to take a lot of time monkeying around with each separate file which was only about 10 to 11 lines long. I do know that not all of their accounts are like this. They were extremely nice people and paid well!!
In the past year and half, I have always been paid on time. --nm

Curt and demanding, paid on time, bad dictators
The recordings were poor quality, I think they are called re records
No direct deposit but defintely paid on time....sm
I have worked for them for 6 months and they are by far the best company I have worked for.
I got to be paid on time every two weeks or I'm outta there! Just my advise
Is no one going to mention that we got paid two days early this time?
'Cause we did :)
I believe they mean that you have to make $900 per PP to be full time, still paid by line
x
I've been with them a short time.....sm
and am very happy. Nice folks, good accounts and good pay.
Then they've wasted their time
There are a lot of things that could be going on, both innocent, stupid, and sneaky. They could be mining resumes to pad their employee list and make it appear as if they do have US employees. They could be stupid enough to waste time posting on a US board for a position in Pakistan. Or they could have innocently somehow missed putting in a location for a US transcriptionist.
Ignore it or wait and see if they clarify the position in the future.
Not true - Amphion may suck in some ways but they always paid on time.

They were very nice and paid on time right from the start, but both accts. I got put on I couldn'

paid by direct deposit on time, and you submit the bill nm

Deventure has never paid benefits to part time folks
Not sure what you are talking about, but there is no difference. Everyone I have spoken to is really excited about the merger with Transcend.
