Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

I agree - and there are a lot of MTs on this site that need to take a chill pill.

The attitude of many MTs toward other human beings is absolutely uncalled for.

Would you please take a chill pill?
Not going to go back and reread my original comments, but I doubt I was emphatic that *all* scribes are 'highly skilled'. Of course there are the mediocre and the downright poor. And those who blank 'any' term instead of at least trying to research it SHOULD NOT be hired as transcriptionists in the first place.

My original post was to the MTSO who asked for feedback. I actually responded to someone else's post (yours?) where the suggestion was made that rates be tied to difficulty. In that regard, I suggested that they consider charging a premium for difficult doctors, a portion of which could be passed on to the most skilled scribes. Most companies *do not pay* newbies or less-skilled individuals at the same level as more skilled/experienced transcriptionists.

For some reason you've misunderstood me, but you'll have to continue the thread without me if you still do.
:)
You really need to take a chill pill, Cindy
You posted right behind one another and you are so bitter, probably having to start VR and cannot do. I make over $20.00 an hour, very easy.
You really need to take a chill pill. I figured you'd be worn out from your rants below. nm

Take a pill

Read my post again, I said I did not understand all the negativity towards this company.  I never once said anything negative about the MTs and/or editors who have negative feelings towards the company.  Having read the posts so far, I do not see any valid reason why this company is so terrible.  If you don't like the pay, then don't work for them, but it doesn't make the company terrible because they don't pay as much as you feel you should be paid.  Gas stations pay $5.50/hour (guessing here).  If you don't want to make that, don't go and apply at gas stations, but it doesn't make the gas station a terrible place to work at.  I used to work for a national (will not name which one) the pay was great, but waking up every morning with a negative email in my inbox day in and day out, no thank you.  BTW, I am not management.  I have been with them for almost two months. 


You take the pill......you opened it up.
No one said YOU said anything. If you read all the past postings, did you really think no one would respond to your post? You said you did not understand the negativity towards this company. You got responses as to why some individuals feel negative. You are happy and that is all that matters. So take it for what it is. If you don't want responses (or them to go your way whoever you really are)it is easy....Keep quiet!
How 'bout something to offset that bitter pill you swallowed?
?
Chill out!
Last I heard, this is a free country.  Pay is not such a sensitive issue that it cannot be discussed amongst ourselves here on this board.  Since when are certain topics off limits at an anonymous discussion board?  She didn't break any rules.  Look at the job seeker's board...what do you see in the job ads?  Line rates.  Maybe you are volunteering your time to Keystrokes, but the rest of us trade our time for money.  It's no secret and certainly not a new concept.  If you are that offended by questions concerning issues such as pay, which is the basis of what we do, then don't read the posts and certainly don't respond to them!
Chill!

Hey dudette, take a chill pill. I just asked a question. Here's another. Do you want VR to get so good that it perfects you right out of a job all together? When I have to fix the mistakes, I feel like I will be among the employed for a while longer.


Chill - it was put there intentionally -
NM
In MY opinion, you need to CHILL

Anyone has the right to post here and anyone has a right to defend negative posts that are not true.  Who are you to say that owners or recruiters should not post??  You are the one acting very unprofessional and a bit childish.


If someone spends $1.15 per page to fax something, there is THEIR problem.  A simple fax machine is VERY inexpensive.


It is evident you need some ANGER MANAGEMENT classes.


You need to chill or find another job

This is the way transcription works.  I've been doing this for 25 years.  The years we DID have work all the way through the holidays were very rare.  Deal with it.  Things may not get back to normal until January 5th when regular schedules start again.  Not everyone is out of work, but every account is different. You're not telling anyone on this board something they don't already know. 


happens seldom, chill out...nm

Chill. Maybe there are no developments that need to be discussed. nm

You are still wrong to thank your company on an MT site, appropriate is your site.

Best Web Site...
Here's a totally silly, irrelevant, dopey question:  If you had never worked for any of the nationals, knew nothing about them whatsoever, and you had to pick one company based solely on their web site - who would you pick? Remember - you know nothing about any company whatsoever....
Here's a web site for you.

Except for the site.
know nothing.

HTH.
On this site, at least. :) SM
However, I felt it was worth posting as a representative of those Spheris employees who are satisfied.

I think many Spheris employees choose not to frequent/post on online forums, since there are guidelines regarding such discussions and it's easier just to avoid the issue.
I took a look at their web site - sm
I have not complete any formal training with a medical transcription school, but have 15 years experience in acute care. Their web site says they prefer transcriptionists who have completed formal training with an accredited school. I really want to apply, but since I haven't gone to school, I am hesitant. Anyone know if they will hire based on experience, without having completed training?
new web site
what discussion forum on what new web site?
MDI-FL...is there a web site....
to go to for infomation?  Thanks!
New Site?
I am thinking about making a website/blog specifically for Pro-American MTs, educating the general public what's truly at risk here. For starters, I am personally going to boycott all doctors who support/send their dictation other countries!!!

I want to make the general public aware and get their input on supporting such a boycott. Hopefully, they'll join in on the boycott too.

My money is going to the doctor who supports American jobs. I'll put my trust in those physicians, thank you. As far as the docs who send their dictation to MTSOs who send our jobs overseas, I hope they all move overseas and live happily ever after! You don't deserve to live in America!

Who's game? I may get a friend of mine to get this started? I can message/email personally to those who are interested will details.
I don't think they have a web site

But they had an ad on the big MT job board.  They're in Florida.


 


Where is their web site??

They don't have a web site (sm)
Can I put you in touch with them?
According to their web site
The Transolutions APEX™ system is a secure, Web-enabled information management system offered exclusively by Transolutions. APEX™ reduces bottom-line costs by creating efficiencies of data management and storage at a centralized location. It also allows you to audit, access, view, edit and print transcribed documents. (Future phases of APEX™ will include electronic signature.) APEX™ incorporates:
OK, you got me to their site. I still saw nothing about it.
Could you direct me to which tab it states it on? Do they get money for all of us being paranoid and going to their website?
Web site?
Does this company have a web site? I could not find anything - was wondering how long they've been around. I lived in Peabody for years and never heard of them, not that that means anything!
Here's their web site

do you have a web site for Transcend????
Anyone know web site for
MDI-MD? I tried www.meditrans.net because I had seen that somewhere, but you can't get in without a password? I just wanted to read about them, their requirements, etc.  Thanks
It's also in the TOS on THIS site.

Their web site says

you get paid when we get paid by the client, pay 0.07 to 0.8 cpl, you must submit your own invoices, a 2-dollar charge for direct deposits...I quit reading after that. 


I don't work there but thatis what their web site says.

why not just go to their web site?

and if you look on the site....
they are lobbying for required certification to do medical transcription, which would suck all of us into membership and partnership wtih them. Blech!!
From their site, they are an
Indian company. Do you really wan to work for an Indian company?
Go to the web site for
the AHDI, formerly AAMT, and they have definitions for three levels of MTs. Whether or not you agree with their organization and what they stand for, I think that theirs are the best definitions I've seen for job descriptions in this field.
this site
I'm beginning to think it should be renamed MTWars. That's about all that ever goes on here anymore. I wouldn't even presume that I could get a decent answer to a question on here because it seems like every question starts some sort of ridiculous childish I'm right, you're wrong debate that goes on forever and ever . . . . It's a very ugly place to visit and as of today, it's off my list of favorites.
Thanks for the web site help. sm
I could never figure it out.  I applied and accepted an offer from KS!

They're more than a little scary.

They say they cut checks once a month but checks aren't mailed until they've been paid by their clients.
Cooper uses on site MTs. NM

Don't believe everything you read on this site

MT Solutions, LLC site?
Is there a site for MT Solutions, LLC? I would like to know something about a company prior to applying. Thank you.
Not sure how to do a search on this site, but
does anyone know anything about a company called Transtech Medical?  TIA
Anyone know the web site for Med-Rite
Thanks!
Website/FTP site
Usually they have a website you download the software from.  Then you install it onto you computer.  Or some companies use FTP sites.  Works the same way.  HTH
I don't know. I got the info from their web site. Also they pay on a

I visited the site as
In one of the forums, you suggest to someone (who complained about not having enough work) to try Spheris. What exactly is your role in relationship to MTReviews.org?

If you are actually trying to get new MTs for MTReviews.org, which you say is a brand new company, why suggest to someone to try Spheris? Is this really just a front to get people to go to the site so they can see the post about the 3cpl incentive for finding a new client?
