I googled them and you can find links about them there.
Couldn't find it.

Could you e-mail me privately and let me know what company this is in California?  Thanks! 


I couldn't find anything either, but...
I like her communication style and it seems there will be plenty of work. She seems to be straightforward to me, so I'm going to give her a shot.

I've had similar offers where I couldn't find anything about the MTSO, good or bad, but for whatever reason got a negative vibe and declined the offer. I'm not getting this feeling with TMI, so I've accepted her offer.

Time will tell, but I'm optimistic at this point.
I couldn't find anyone, including TT, who would allow only ops.

If you look back in the archives people left when they realized they couldn't make money with it.

You can't find anything in the archives? Come on....
This same question is asked every week and the answers are there and they are long and detailed. There is a reason they are always advertising.
Sorry, I can't find anything in the archives
but does Transtech have PTO (vacation pay) for PT employees?  If not, do they allow you to take time off without pay to have a vacation?  Thanks for any replies. Happy Easter!
All I can find in archives about Mediscript is sm

"Bad news!" and nothing else.  That doesn't tell me or anyone else anything useful.  I don't care if someone says "bad news!" but could they please back it up with some real info?  Preferably first-hand experiences would be nice, thank you.


Does anyone out there have any info about Mediscript?  I know they pay by the gross line, but how much?  Do they offer direct deposit?  When are the pay days?  How's the platform?  Any info appreciated.  I'd like to gather some information first before I take any tests or talk to them so I can determine if it's worth going through all that for a job that might not be a fit for me.


I can't find TC Transcription in archives..can you tell me the name
as I'm looking too..I have 2 or 3 bigger ones written down but am looking for something smaller..thanks

If you read the archives you should find what you are looking for, although

you won't find much good about them.  


If you read the archives you won't find much

good about them.  They switch you from account to account. They have had management problems for many years.  Their line counting is difficult to figure out and they dock you for lots of things.  They also offshore and are currently training women in Trinidad and somewhere else so you know what that means.   Some of their accounts are teaching hospital and I worked on one of them and the dictation quality was horrendous.  If you're a newbie I doubt they'd put you on it though. 


There are worse companies out there, but I still wouldn't recommend TRS. 


 


If you look in the archives you'll find several
posts regarding problems with getting paid.   They don't pay that well to start with.  I have 20 years of experience and they offered me 8 cpl.  I don't know anything else about them, but the payment issue would be enough for me to stay away. 
J&J Transcribing - can't find anything in archives or...
on board. Have tried typing it in as J&J and J and J. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!
I checked the archives and can find nothing...
Any info on JLG please?
Any information on All Type. Could not find anything in the archives.

I know they are hiring so I am just trying to gather some information before applying.


If you look in the archives you will find a much different story about offshoring ...
As well as lots of other things by what appears to be more than one poster. 
could not find anything in archives regarding "All Type". Anyone have info on.....

Do they only hire employees, or IC's also:  What platform do they use:  Are they a good company to work for?


Any information would be appreciated.  Thanks.


RE: could not find anything in archives regarding "All Type". Anyone have info on.....
From their web site: At ALL TYPE, our goal is to recruit and retain the very best medical transcriptionists. We would like you to consider joining us. If you qualify, you would be a welcome part of our team of highly trained Medical Transcriptionists (MTs). ALL TYPE transcriptionists enjoy the flexibility of being in an at-home environment as full-time employees or if you prefer, as independent contractors. Our staff retention rate is high for good reason.Our MTs say they have never worked in a happier group or for a company that attended to their issues in such a responsive way. As a matter of fact, many of our new MTs are referrals from our existing MT staff. See what our people say....(click here)

We pay our MTs highly competitive rates.
You have the opportunity for career advancement.
You'll use cutting-edge technology.

Thanks. I did search the archives, but didn't find the answers (SM)
to my specific questions. That is why I posted.
Any NEW information about Interpro? All I find in the archives arent very recent

Maybe it was just directed to the people on specific accounts or a specific software platform. nm

Searched archives and cannot find info on MedScript Services, Inc. and Inscribe software...sm
They are also on the web as MedScript Services, Inc. I think that they're based in Naples, Florida. I also believe that they use a platform called INSCRIBE. Any comments on the software or company?
If you'll read the archives you'll find out everything
you want to know, none of it good.
I used to have a QA guy that couldn't transcribe, couldn't fill in a blank,

but was anal retentive when it came to punctuation.  You would have a report with 10 blanks in it because of poor sound quality, and he wouldn't fill in one blank, but he had put commas all throughout your report, or taken apostrophes out, etc. and he wasn't correct in his punctuation a lot of the time.   Several of the MTs complained about him and asked to not have him do their QA, so he was demoted from QA to an MT.  Well, as I said earlier, he couldn't fill in a blank.  I saw a couple of his reports and there was blank after blank in reports that I had no trouble with at all.  He also didn't proof his reports because he would have inapproriate/incorrect expansions in them.  Not sure if he left on his own, or didn't really have a choice.  Anyway, talk to your supervisor.  Maybe this person is just on a power trip, knows you are new and wants to train you to do it her way, even if your way isn't incorrect.  I think punctuation is a valid issue, but if it doesn't change the integrity of the report and there are no other errors it shouldn't be flagged by QA.    You could also take into account her corrections and maybe try to use a few more commas, etc. and that might help.  


Oh, I couldn't understand them. I didn't try them all, but the first couple, I couldn't und

complaints
Sure, if you have a legitimate complaint or a negative observation about a co., you should feel free to post it. But there are a couple of people who's sole purpose for coming on this forum is to find some excuse for name-calling and launching a verbal assault on anybody who has a different opinion. I for one don't give any credence to an opinion expressed in such an immature manner. If you've had a bad experience with a co., vent about it, but don't harp on it for the next 10 yrs. One person in particular has tried to dominate this forum with her constant ranting and raving over her personal experiences and then insulting the intelligence of anyone who claims to have had a good relationship with the same co. Get over it already and give us a break!!!! It's obvious you never outgrew being a bully, but the rest of us are sick and tired of it.
no complaints
I haven't worked for TRS for a long time, just since October, but I have found it to be a great place to work. I think everyone is an employee, but I'm not sure. You have 12 hours to complete 8 hours of work. They require 1000 lines a day and you have 90 days to get up to that speed. Lines seem to come along pretty easily. When it comes to the overseas thing, I think there is a lot of wrong and misguided information out there about it. I am happy with the decision that I made to accept my position with them.
No complaints here
I have worked for Karol for just over a year and I have no complaints.  The work is good and steady, pay is always on time, and she is very laid back and easy to work for, nice person.  Feel free to email me if you have any questions.

SPI complaints
Lick the stamps was just an expression. Of course, I have more to worry about. I'm being fired by them after tomorrow because I'm refusing to sign away my legal rights. I feel it is illegal coercion to force an employee into signing documents against their own interests. The only lawsuit I could ever bring against them would be for terminal unprofessional conduct, anyway.
I had no complaints while there sm
I worked there over a year, had decent accounts, decent pay. I was IC so no idea about employee side of things. As long as you get your lines in there really wasn't a problem. I would get emails a few times a day with updates on account flow. Yes at times they ask for volunteer overtime if swamped but they also pay incentive for those extra lines, and again it was voluntary. My emails didn't get ignored, as some have stated, but I never really had a need to email them often. Good people working there, always ready to help with a sample. They have a private forum so you don't feel totally alone. They are basically split into 2 groups; DSG1 and DSG2. I worked primarily on DSG1 accounts. I did do some work on DSG2 accounts and personally I thought they were horrible dictators, but that is my only complaint. Perhaps see which you would be on before making up your mind. So why did I leave? I was doing PT work for a local clinic and they had an opening for FT. Any other questions feel free to email.
Love it here. No complaints.
Know your ESLs though or look somewhere else. Seriously. The benefits are great, I am never out of work. They hold you to the line count requirements (and why shouldn't they?!)

good luck.
No complaints with Medware
I've worked there almost 6 years and have had consistent work and reliable pay, and I make decent money.
all I see are complaints about Bayscribe
