I have never worked for Medware.

In Reply to: Winnie - does Medware own TTS? - SM

I have never worked for Medware. What they have in common is ExText and are PSPs for Dictaphone. Medware does not fund anyone and TTS is a totally independent company. I know many of the old crew who were at Medware and they had a great crew and probably will again some day if their heart is truly in it. When people move on they hopefully weight their options and make the best decision they can for themselves. I have had the summer of enlightenment with this industry and having a very hard time maintaining my own good humor about it, frankly. I do know this .. there are still great companies out there who keep a low profile and just get it done. They don't go for the glitz and have to be the biggest and the best and toot their own horns. They just do it the best way they can each and every day .. and that is really what it should be all about each day, the safety of the patient and having a life outside of work that you can call your own.

I worked for Medware in the past, and
at first it was great!  They were advertising for ER which was what I wanted, but when I applied they said no ER so I was given Acute Care.  The first few months were great.  I was in hog heaven.  Then overnight things changed and I had nothing but the worst ESLs and my pay went downhill big time!!  I tried to get things resolved, so no luck.  Otherwise it was great.  Easy platform, good communication, etc.  If you are lucky enough to get and KEEP good accounts, then it is great! 
Anyone worked for both Medware and Precyse?

Medware of TransHealth? Anyone worked for both?
nm
Have worked for Medware and now at Precyse.(sm)

Medware turned out to be a really bad place to work, changes taking place there all the time and NOT good ones.  I am very pleased with everything at Precyse.  Great benefits.  Great platform.  Great people at Precyse, love working with them.


When I trained/worked for Medware,
more than 2 hours because the trainer like to gab and not necessarily keep on track with the training. So, no guarantee that you will be finished.
I was not WRONG. I worked for Medware, so I know how they operate.
I did not receive a software bundle beyond that which was built into the system.  I did NOT receive a standalone version or disk of any software.  I AM NOT WRONG.  I also could care less if you're happy or not, because your attitude certainly is not that of a happy person.  So go back to your offshoring, lying company and stop trying to get the last word in when YOU are INCORRECT on ALL COUNTS.
Has anyone worked with Linda Kelley of TTS/Medware & can you tell me about your experience, please?

Has anyone worked with Linda Kelley of TTS/Medware, and can you please tell me about your experience??  THANKS SO VERY MUCH, your time is greatly appreciated!!!


 


 


Years ago I knew a completely blind lady who worked for Medware (nm)
x
I worked for a temp agency for 3 years..LOVED it. Just worked. No counts, no hassels, GREAT pay..
No benefits at the time.  I even learned pathology while temping (8 months on that assigment).  I loved the variety, the ability to say I'm not available such and such time.  I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I didn't need benefits.
A company is ONLY supposed to verify that someone worked there, what dates they worked, whether PT o
and last date worked. It opens everyone up to a lawsuit if more is given, so most companies are told by their attorneys and business advisors to verify only.

No one has a right to a reference, only verification of employment.
It worked! Latest suggestion from DJ's email worked. nm

If I worked a longer day, I just put my regular shift, 3p-11p, or whatever. If I worked sm
an extra day, then I was told to fudge the hours around on the other days so it all came out to 40.  I didn't really mind -- have learned not to expect overtime in this profession -- and I was happy to be able to work whenever I needed to get the lines I needed.  However, them telling me directly to fudge on my time sheet would seem to be a violation of the wage and hour laws.  I suppose it doesn't matter now if they do not even have enough work to make the minimum line count necessary.  Several of the companies I thought were golden seem to have gotten a bit tarnished lately … sad. 
She's giving work TO Medware, or is Medware giving work to her company? Medware has no work. nm

Glad it worked for you. I have worked for companies
that were more reliable and paid without the delay I had. Maybe you started before they started doing that but it makes no difference. I TOO am a single parent.

You are not trying to argue? Sounds like you not only are trying to argue but you are just waiting for anyone to post anything about the co on here so you can just get out there and respond, which seems to be the way I have always noticed it. It's like all the MTs or whoever that work there are just waiting to respond.

This board is about the good points and bad points about companies. I am telling my experience.

The people were nice people though, but my experience was not a good one and I will not say it was.

I can go a week after the end of payday and even 10days later but that's it. Kids would starve.
Best company I have ever worked for, and I have worked for a lot!
I can't believe some of the things these people say here, and have to wonder if it just the same person or two bashing. I have been at MDI for four years and I do not have a low workload and I get treated very, very well.
They one I am not sure of. I have always worked FT for them. I have worked both IC and employee
and I always did way over 12,000 a pay peroid. I am sure they are pretty comparative to other companies. You definitely could contact a recruiter by applying if they would answer all of your questions up front. Good luck.

Does anyone have any comments on working for Medware?  Thanks!
Medware
Thanks for your input!! I'm job shopping and want to make a better decision this time.
Medware
Does anyone know what Medware is paying these days? They seem to have a lot of ads for help in transcription and for the Dictaphone platform.
medware pay

I went through their whole testing bit, got called twice for interviews, once with a guy and then once I passed the test, some lady called me.  They said I did well on the test, but they only offered me 7.5 cpl (5 yrs exp).  I need more than that so chose to not go with their company.


Medware for me
Love my account, direct deposit every 2 weeks and the insurance is affordable.  My supervisor is really cool and understanding, we get along great.  1 year and counting, hope for many more.  Good luck to you.
Medware
Hi! I just started with them last week and so far it has been really great. They are all really nice and I have had wonderful training. You get paid by the hour for the first 4 weeks so you have time to learn the system (which the system itself is excellent and extremely easy)Your rate is determined by experience so I don't know other than my own. I guess you have to ask them about the schedule, but mine is just what I need. The staff is very, very nice. I think you would really like it. If you will notice, there is tons of negative stuff about all the MT companies on this board, but Medware has a lot less negative than some of the others (I looked through it before I started.) I think you should try it.
I am with Medware
Easy platform, good pay, good people, flexible schedule. Just what I need.
Osi does and I think Medware nm

Medware
Has anyone out there worked for Medware?  I have gotten a job offer from them and just wondered how they are to work for.  Thanks for any help
Medware which one?
Which Medware are you all praising? Where is it located?
Medware
They are located in Florida.
Medware
Hi, am thinking about Medware.  How do you like it?  What is it really like.  Do they have a good training program.  I was very impressed with the marketeer.  He seemed very accommodating and willing to work with me.  Just wondering what the scoop is.  Thanks in advance
Medware
ty so much for your response. w/ so many companies out there unsure of what to do. I have been transcribing for 3 years and just getting my line count up. Plus being fairly new on the block was unsure whether I would fit in. Just how easy would it be for a fairly new comer to fit in. I need a little encouragement and a small amount of TLC, but just for a short time.
Medware
Does Medware pay for spaces, headers, footers, etc.
You probably should ask Medware
accurate rate. They are a very good company however. Good luck.
Medware pay
I had 16+ years experience and Medware paid me the same as a newbie because I didn't have my CMT, although I was considered a Level III transcriptionist.  Also, having your CMT, you are still maxed out on the pay.  I had heard that Medware wasn't really hiring anymore MT because they were outsourcing to India and they were only hiring editors or turning MTs within the company into editors.  At one time, they were a good company to work for.  I have been gone for a year so things may have changed.  This was just my experience with the pay scale. 
Medware
Medware is still hiring MTs. Only one area of the company deals with the Indian transcription. Everything else is still done by US transcriptionists. There are 6 levels of pay -- level I, II, and III for both certified and non-certified MTs. A recruiter could better give you an idea what those rates are.

... a happy MW employee
Medware
Looking for opinions on Medware from current employees. Can anyone tell me how many transcriptionists they have, are they flexible at all, do they offer part-time, positives and negatives? Most importantly, are you making any money with them? Thanks.
MedWare? Can anyone tell me anything?
I have been offered a position and am hesitant to take it, can anyone give me any insight?  Thanks for any info you can provide.
MedWare
They sound almost too good to be true! How many ESLs do you have to do, on average?
Medware
Does anyone have any info on the job posted today by Medware for MTs with ExText experience? Considering applying and am wondering if anyone who works for them part time can tell me if there is any flexibility with them, line rate range, pay for headers, spaces, etc., and can anyone "in the know" tell me what account this is starting up? Also some general info on the company - how many MTs they have, do they offer any benefits at all for part time? Thanks in advance!
Medware pay?
Anyone know approximately the starting pay at Medware for IC and employee?  Does anyone know if they are hiring for psychiatry or therapy accounts? 
Medware or OSI
Offered jobs by both, appreciate any help.
Medware or OSi
I worked for OSi for 2 yrs and recently left to join Medware. Medware is a better run company. Their people are more professional and knowledgeable. It is just a great place to work!!

There have been a lot of OSi people leave and go to Medware in the past month.


Medware
I tested for Medware 2 weeks ago and have not heard from them. I know I did well on the test. Anyone know if they are really hiring?
Anyone know what Medware

 


Medware ICs

Hi! Does anyone happen to know if you can switch from employee to IC at Medware?


Also, if you are an IC, what time frame do you have to do your work?


THANKS!!


Medware
I applied for Medware today.  Any information would be most appreciated
Medware
Medware is top rated by AAMT because most of Medware's management happen to be AAMT officers or former officers - brings to mind The fox guarding the henhouse.

I don't rave about them. I did work for them for awhile, but their platform was not my cup of tea, nor do I agree with their outsourcing.
Medware

I agree - the management nominates themselves and then they vote for themselves. Medware has some very active members in AAMT.


Medware also offshores in a very big way. You can run a check on Google for Medware India to see for yourself.


Medware
Medware does.  Also, just saw that Cymed offers it but I don't know anything about that company.
Medware or MDI-FL...
Has anyone worked for both companies and could tell me which is better?  Trying to decide which company is better.  The offer is about the same for both, benefits seem about the same, so just trying to decide who is the easiest to get lines with, easiest to work with, etc.  I have looked through the archives and good and bad about both, so not sure what to do.  Thanks in advance.
Medware or MDI-FL (sm)
I have never worked for MDI-FL but have heard good things about them.

I now work for Medware and am very happy there. The system is great. My Team Lead is the best when it comes to being flexible...he is very understanding, also has a great sense of humor which is a must in my book! It is great working with some of the most professional leaders in this industry.

I do believe I have found my home.

You have talked to both companies, so compare and make the best decision you can. Good luck!
medware
This sounds like typical Medware management - superior, arrogant, sarcastic.
Medware, Inc.
I would encourage you to call your recruiter. If there is anything that I can do for you please do not hesitate to give me a call. 1-800-881-3131 x371.
