Any info on WriteNow Transcription? Did a search, but no results.
Thanks so much.
They are probably only given the results
to discuss. You would need to contact your supervisor for clarification.
Different results
People are usually pretty darned interested when I bring it up.
They will when a lawsuit results from it and
In their wallets. Publicize the name of the hospital SOMEHOW, because I personally would NEVER go to be treated in an institution run by those kinds of physicians.
Exactly! And I did request results...
of my testing or a more definitive answer and received no reply. I learn new things every day--sometimes things that I have been doing incorrectly. If it was, indeed, a timed test...I was screwed because I checked EVERYTHING. I have even submitted a copy of what I typed (Yes, I copied and pasted to a Word document) to my current supervisor and asked her to point out my errors. She found none and I feel better:)
Waiting for test results...
Their base pay for ER work was 8 cents plus 1/2 cents for 2nd shift I think, 1 cents for weekends, something like that.  I know I was banking on 8-1/2 for ER work.
Never notified about test results
It took forever to get the testing materials through the mail, and the instructions that came with it had several typo's! Never received test results. When I asked via email about the test, they said that person had been out of town and would get with me in a few days - that was in January. Needless to say I'm not terribly impressed...
I am pretty sure that they will send the test results
to you if you ask.  I had one stop me at the second section of a test.  When I asked what I did wrong, they were more than happy to send me a copy of it.  The proof for me was in seeing what happened......
Before I apply, I have a few questions. I have better results asking here than the companies. sm
I do know to take it all with a grain of salt. Here are my questions:

Do they send work offshore?
IC or employee?
Line rate range for radiology?
Is there a lot of work.

Only one rad account worries me, especially as I heard that they are competing for this account with a large company. I cannot find out who that company is though, only that they are large. The person I know at the hospital that I asked did not have any name except QT, but she said that the other company is very strong and may end up with it.

This is so unsettling. I am totally confused and just wish things would stay the same :) Sigh.
No, you're in the year 2008, where the results of
most kids being raised in daycare with 2 parents working 24/7 are showing. Kids are a mess and the American family is a total mess, divorce rates 50%, our country going down the tubes, and YES a lot of it has to do with kids being left on their own while mommy works and goes to school, etc.  I don't know the answer, but for sure the results being disastrous are evident all around you. I stayed home with mine and am more than pleased with the results.  Just because children survive and grow into adults does not mean that they are healthy and happy adults. 
Very disturbing research results on Transcend
It seems Transcend is very busy acquiring MTSOs and not bashful about their future goals. Please read what I copied from a recent article when they acquired TRS(March 2009). Between VR and offshoring, I truly do not see how much work will be left.

“We are excited to welcome TRS to the Transcend team,” stated Transcend CEO Larry Gerdes. “We
believe their commitment to their customers and employees makes them an excellent fit for Transcend.
TRS has taken a leadership role in our industry through its involvement with industry associations like the
Association for Healthcare Documentation Integrity (AHDI) and the Medical Transcription Industry
Association (MTIA). We look forward to continuing to play an important industry role with their
involvement. TRS provides services on several different platforms. We believe that over the next year,
35% - 50% of the business can be migrated to our BeyondTXT platform, which allows us to leverage our
speech recognition technology to improve productivity, enhance quality and drive faster turnaround times.
We look forward to working together as we integrate our operations over the next several months.”
“We believe our merger with Transcend is a positive step into the future for our customers and
employees,” stated TRS CEO Bob Harvey. “Transcend has an un-paralleled reputation for excellent
service. This gives our customers confidence that our teams will now be supported by the additional
resources of the top-ranked firm in the industry. For the sake of our employees, it was important to me to
merge with a company that has a strong commitment to providing the best work environment in the
medical transcription field, and I know we have found that in Transcend. ”
“Transcend is very interested in the work TRS is doing with overseas transcription training in places like
Barbados,” stated Transcend COO Sue McGrogan. “Although their training institute is not part of this
transaction, Transcend sees real opportunity to use this resource and others to continue to grow our
offshore capacity. Transcend is committed to remaining a predominately domestic transcription provider,
but we will continue to expand our offshore resources as well. We expect that the percentage of work
processed offshore could increase from about 20% today to perhaps 35%-40% in the future. This helps us
staff nights and weekends and gives us added flexibility as we grow. We would never replace a domestic
transcriptionist in the process. In fact, we plan to continue expanding our domestic workforce for years to
come. We hope that TRS Institute can become an offshore partner in the near future.”

RE: How do I search?
I did a search and this is what I came up with:

Search Results
Your search for Focus, Infomatics found the following documents (of 73654 documents searched):
Displaying documents 1-50 of 387, with best matches first:

At the top of any page on the web site, there is information of search archives,etc.
How do I search?
Hi.  I tried to do a search, but can't find anything.  Must be doing it wrong, as I am new to the board - can you tell me how to do this?  Thanks!
You might want to do a more thorough search
Search the archives here under Rapid Transcript and you will see there are payment problems.
Search for OTI

how did you search
I tried alltype and all type and got nothing.
I did a search first. Does anyone know about

Thank you!


If you do a search, you should be able
to find the recent discussion about TRS.
Search
I have tried to do a search and only get the archived job listings or how many kestrokes type information. I looked through the last week of pages and only found 1 reference to them that they are okay. I would appreciate a little more information before I make my decision. Any help is appreciated:)
have you done a search on
MT Stars for Medware?  Not to long ago someone from the VR side of Medware posted that Medware opened a 401K for her, deducted her contributions from her paycheck and then didn't bother to put the money in her 401K EVER.  They wouldn't tell her what happened and they wouldn't apologize and they wouldn't compensate her for the lost interest.  I seriously recommend you do a thorough search on MT Stars and learn all you can about this company before you take a job with them.
would tell you to search but

for some reason their archives do not show up - probably because of the initials.  My understanding is it is not a new account but one they took on and were not ready for - no problems there, just means the work will be there, probably a backlog.  I applied and worked there for a short time, but left - too much bureaucracy even after a short time.  One staff member gets too rigid for lack of a better word, and I can get snippy from my kids, don't need it from work - I am an IC not a welcome mat.


They want you on and working during your 8-12 hour shift - not something I care to do wroking from home.  I work 12-16 hours, but like to stretch my legs if you know what I mean.  


Past posts worry about pay, and if I am avaialble 12 hours without fail, I want my money - I am taking no chances.


Do a search here
I think there was a whole thread about them in November or December 2006.
did you do a search?

do a search...

The best advice is always to do a search in the archives and get yourself an idea of all the different experiences people have had with Alltype.  Some will be good and some will be bad.  That is true of most companies.  Myself, I am always suspicious if  comments are all good or all bad.  Lots of people plant things on this board to make their companies look good.  Lots of others plant things to make a company look bad.  Search it out yourself.  Good luck!!!


Search
Use the Google search bar and just make sure mtstars is marked for the search instead of the web.
Search TTS
I do NOT recommend them.
You can use the search box...
that is just to the right of post new message button on this board, and you will come up with lots of information on MD-IT, as its a company discussed here frequently.  Good luck!

If you search within this website, under company, for mxsecure you will find a lot more positive posts.

some people have bad experiences, just like with any company, but I know a lot of people have really good experiences there and are still working there and happy.

NMMM
I did a search on them just now as
I am looking to change employers, and find names of companies I had never heard of on this site. Then I check them out the best I can through the internet.

Whoa! Be careful. Unless something has changed, the work you will get will be the overflow from India.

Do some research yourself before you accept an offer from them. Then you will be more comfortable taking or declining their offer.
search gets nothing... help sm
I never have luck with that search feature. Now I'm putting in MD-IT and it keeps removing the - between MD and IT and I get nothing.
I just did a search..sm
apparently they no longer use the name vision infonet, but rather MD Care/EMR billing and coding. The senior executive is Rakhi something or other and she is in India. Enough said, I guess.
Of course! I did a search of MD-IT

Please tell me where the info is, because my search turned up very, very little.


you can search here

Why not try a search first, and then if there
are still questions, check each of their web sites.  Searching is easy and fun....
I did do a search
Just wanting to get as much information as possible. Not much information out there on Axolotl, which sometimes is a good sign-:)
seriously, do an archive search - sm
I've never worked for them, but it seems that every single day someone is asking that very same question
do a search...how much do you value yourself as a person...
they also outsource offshore...

had a great platform, though, but had to fight for work. most companies getting that way so you are totally dependent on the manager - just do not fall out of grace with them. good luck, you will need it.

my 2 cents...
