I didnt even know who to apply with and all I wanted was recommendations, which I guess is not allowed. I certainly didnt expect anyone to offer me a job from my post. It's just nice to hear what others have to share about the company they work for, which some of us may not even know about to specifically ask about. Oh well. sorry you got deleted. I feel your pain.

specific company name?

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

She asking for initials for specific "account" not company.

Are you referring to a specific company? If so, which one. We know these things happen, we need

Is it usual for company to assign specific jobs?
I'm just so frustrated right now. I've had some jobs assigned to me that are from one of my backup accounts, not just one but many, and many ESLs, which has really brought my line count down. I know I have to just deal with it, but I'm wondering if this is a normal occurrence. I got hired under the idea that I was on a low ESL account, which my main account is, but not the backup accounts. This doesn't happen all the time, but it is happening more frequently now. Do I have a reason to be frustrated with this, or should I just get over it and accept it?
?? company board, can talk about specific companies by name (nm)

Why Google web? Compile a Stars company-specific list.
Immediately above the first post about 'Dictation 9 cents' whatever, and next to the 'Post New Message' button is a Search box. Use that one and get what you are looking at - only company specific. Why go outside the source? this is much easier.
Yeap, this be me. I told you that you would like it. Truly, this is the best company.
I had the pleasure of meeting Melissa personally and she is just delightful and a joy to work for.
Yes, right company. MTSO told me so
herself. The offshoring is fairly new, maybe 3 months or so. I did QA on some of the files.
See, told you they were a great company. Not too many would do that.

We all had to call in to the new insurance company last week. I was told that it will be sm
around $250 per single and that KS will be picking up a large portion.
Yeah, my old company told all of us our jobs were secure
They told us to go about our business and work as usual, that a merger or acquisition may be taking place, and we need not worry. In that first call, I asked the supervisor about sending it to India and got a very defensive answer. I should have learned!!! Six months later, 150 of us...bam!!! Laid off...no more US MT force for that company...
When Transcend bought the company I worked for we were told they did not do IC, just PT/FT... sm
so this is news to me! Maybe they allow different things for different companies they buy. I also understood a little while after the merger that all accounts would move over to their platforms, but now I am reading that maybe not all of them did with other mergers. I am sorry you all are going through this! I remember how it was thrown on us so quickly too.
I was told that the company is fined and they take the compalints off their website
after being paid. My husband was working for a plumbing company that had a lot of negative reports (he dosen't work for them anymore thank god) and all they had to do was pay $5,000 to get the complaints taken off. We checked the BBB site again and low and behold there is not one bad complaint against them. I didn't know you could buy the BBB. How does that protect the consumer?
No, I haven't been. I told my true experience of working for that company.
I don't have a negative attitude. You're the one who can't handle it when someone disagrees with you.
I worked for a different company using Vianeta and could never access line counts. Was also told it
:+
but mgmt told me they outsourced some work to a small company at times.
There is no reason for me to lie about this.
I am NOT talking about offshoring, but the company whom they outsource to may offshore . . . I have no idea about that. But straight from the horse's mouth, they have outsourced to a small MTSO before.
You can notice how the work dries up all of a sudden when they turn it over to the service and we have no work.
TT mgmt may not tell that they outsource today, but they definitely told me about 9 months ago when I asked when the work was low. From the way the jobs disappear occasionally, I think it happens quite often.
I don't hesitate to ask. Have been told "yes", and have been told "no." Never been to
:+
Sorry, I should have been more specific. sm
Mostly, just the usual -- are you happy there? Would you recommend it to your friends? Pay on time? Work flow consistent?
Thanks!
More specific please- MS in NJ or FL? nm
.
Can you be more specific on what you'd like to know? sm
Good benefits (PTO, pd holidays, life, medical, dental insurance); good amount of work available (except this week has been slow on some accounts); they provide equipment (you do pay deposit, returned at time of leaving); direct deposit, always on time pay; easy to use platform (but you need high speed Internet); good training and I LOVE my manager (responsive to emails and phone calls, doesn't micromanage me).
Weak spot would be tech support (depends who you get).
Can you be more specific? nm
Were they at all specific about SM
what they meant when they said typing skills? That is so vague.
You need to be more specific, such as ....
Employee status or IC?
Benefits?
Work type?
Set schedule?
Okay, but that's not very specific (sm)
I guess I should have asked for all opinions happy and otherwise. If you work for Webmedx, would you mind telling what has been the problem?
Can you be more specific?
Turns out they are not hiring for a month or two anyway!
Sorry, I should have been more specific.sm
MDI MTs will be getting a call in October/November and will find out then what the offer is.
TT..please be more specific about platform..sm
You say you like the co...please tell me what kind of platform you work on and are you able to increase your line count using the platform easily? Good incentives?
Yes, they do. Maybe your specific experience
does not match up with the positions they have available right now?
Can you be more specific? This doesn't help at all. nm

I don't know about these specific companies
Ablescribe in the mid-TN region and they are hiring. Pretty simple work, a nursing home same 4 or 5 docs and a lot of the same patients daily too. My sis works there and loves it.
I am from TN too!
ablescribe.com, I believe.
could you be more specific on what you love so much about it?
nm
Ask about specific companies. (NM)
Goldbird
Could the replies be more specific
I am considering them also and would like more substantial information than vague statements. That is no help at all. Please if anybody has any experience with them or works for them, please I would also like to know how they are.
Could you be a little more specific? Your post
completely... too many metaphors. Not a lot has happened at my end, but who's to say other people have heard other things. What finally prompted you to jump ship, other than the obvious India-based thing?
This is when you turn over specific
examples to your supervisor and get some answers. I would keep a record of every inconsistency and send them in.
Cannot name specific accounts.

specific answers ..
hi ..
1. Does the ShortHand Expander work on DocQScribe?
not sure .. pretty sure it does.
2. How easy is the platform to learn?
very ... just use keyboard commands instead of mouse
3. How easy is the platform to navigate around when you are in a report -- and are there a lot of steps to saving, sending, etc?
I find it easy and there are not a lot of steps ..
4. Can you look up prior patient reports?
no
5. Can you make your own templates?
You have to put them in the expander and it depends on company policy; they do not want cut and paste as it can affect formatting on client end
6. How is the spellchecker?
okay
7. Can a fast typist make good line counts?
yes .. friend does over 300
8. Is the line count mechanism accurate?
mine has been when I checked it
From my experience, it is a great system.
I too lost production but I started using it but that has been true for me with any windows-based program I have worked on ..
give me back my DOS and WP .. .that is when I used to make good money .. LOL
good luck to you .. you will be fine
PS - However, The speech recognition of MQ (ASR) is terrible unless you have really great dictators.
you dont need your specific
numbers to do your FAFSA. There's a question on the renewal that asks if you've filed your taxes yet, you just say no.
I've not gotten my W2 from TT, and I don't see ANY excuse for that.
Then, obviously, be more specific in your posts
When you post something as vague as your post, you should realize you're leaving far too much open to question. And if you'll read my post, you'll see I tried to clarify in which direction you were attempting to with your ambiguity.
Before you get your feathers ruffled, re-read what you're posting to make sure it conveys the message you are trying to get across.
Glad you weren't sniping at her, though.
Which mediscript?? What are your specific questions? nm

Can you please be more specific regarding "play favorites?"
Can you please be more specific regarding "play favorites?" I used to work there and never had a problem with QA in general; maybe it depends on the account you are assigned to. Although, I do doubt the competency of management there and agree with the other post that you pratically have to "work like a horse" to make any money.
Translutions..good/bad? please be specific..nm
s
Does DRC assign specific worktypes or do you sm
get a regular account like with the big nationals? TIA
It probably would depend on the specific software.
In my case, I have no problem. My IC position is done strictly in Word with downloading and uploading files to FTP, so it really does not require any particular software.
Ask about specific companies in a new post, please.
Goldbird
I would not cite the specific reason
just say not working out as you had hoped. Good luck
answers to your specific questions
12 hour window - no, you give them your schedule of hours you want to work and if it works for them, they approve the schedule and you stick to it. However, they are flexible if things come up and you need to start an hour late or early - just let them know ahead of time. Also flexible for appointments or if you need to trade a day for the most part.
Expander Program is ShortHand for PC.
You would have to ask their IT guys about transfering your entries into their computer. I just sat my two PCs next to each other and created the entries on the SH on the work PC, only took an hour or so to do and well worth it.
Ad seems very specific about acute care.
nm
Yeah I think you'll need to be more specific...
.
It's specific to the software Emdat sm
I understand you could possibly get your Infinity pedal to work with Emdat's software but it takes quite a bit of time and finagling and then still might not work.
