Looking for a reputable company, preferably to do op reports..sm
I am currently with a company with whom I have been happy for the last few years but things seem to be changing. My account has been overstaffed and I have spent the last 45 minutes trying to dial in to my account but all lines are busy. Starting out the day with this level of frustration is not healthy and for this reason along with others I may need to make a change. Can anyone give me any ideas of stable companies with plenty of work and good pay that do not require weekend work? I have 30 years acute care experience and prefer op notes but am open to clinic work too. I try to do 1800-2000 lines a day, care about my work product and am a very reliable employee. I simply need to make some steady money! Thanks for any help or advice offered.
I took it and passed with flying colors
and it was not worth my time for what they are offering - to anyone who had not taken it - my advice is DON'T.
proveros true colors
Guys, 42, 41, 30 days who cares. Can you see the attitude of the chick who keeps saying stuff is DEFAMATORY...can you imagine dealing with a person like this on a day to day basis and and then again when you DON'T get paid even after 100 days. Bottom line...they don't pay. Avoid this crazy Indian owned company.
And you guys R showing everybody YOUR true colors!
What a spiteful bunch U are! Jeez, Louise.
Companies that require ONLY lines - not certain hours, preferably internet sm
based and part time. TIA
Would a current TransHealth MT (preferably a happy one LOL) pls email me to answer some questions?
 email above
I hope they keep posting. They're showing everyone their true colors. :) nm

I passed the MQ test with flying colors putting 2 spaces
after a period, so I don't think that's why you failed.
I've ALWAYS put 2 spaces. That's how we were trained, and that's always been the correct way to type a document. I'm so sick of the BOS's bull, though the company I'm with now follows BOS, but we all put 2 spaces still.
Not a spring board to MT
You won't get experience to get an MT job from CS. You will, however, get used to working from home, working on production, dealing with feedback, digital dictation, and different dictators, all of which is very valuable if you eventually want to pursue MT.
Just Google work at home moms and you will probably find it.
That happened to me last spring from
TT. I received an e mail stating I was being let go because I never returned a call when they tried to reach me by phone. They said I could be rehired in 3 months. I wrote an e mail back saying I never received any phone call, nor did my husband. And, if they needed to talk to me, why didn't they e mail to begin with on the same e mail they were sending this let go notice to begin with? I think they had overhired and then wanted everyone on VR, and I was doing straight typing and I was not a cheap asset. I don't know what happened, but I certainly did not reapply in 3 months. It seems to go in cycles with that company, they hire lots in the fall, with a lot of great posts on the board, and then lots of turn over in the spring. Wondering if it has anything to do with benfits kicking in, etc.
Another way to let someone go is when you are a contractor, and suddenly your account is pulled and you have no work and they don't reassign. That happened at 1 company I worked with. Apparently they lost a clinic I was typing, and when I asked the owner, she said there was nothing wrong with my work. She gave me no answer as to why I did not have another account. I sent numerous e mails, and they said nothing was wrong, yet I never received work. I eventually stopped logging in and checking. I guess they were stringing me along, or I was stupid and took a long time to get the message.
No matter, I work employee at 1 great company and 1 IC in another and turned out to be in the right places after all. Sometimes you just run into companies with bad policies/communication and turnover, and you have to move on anyway. Good luck to you!
Yes, last week was not too hot. Spring Break sm
I have 4 accounts I can work on and I do about every day of the week, right now. We have new accounts coming in the near future too.
This is not permanent. I have changed my shift hours so I get a sort of a peak time of plenty of work on a couple of my accounts. I hope that change is not going to be permanent, but if it is, I am okay.
My STM says it was spring break in the Pacfic sm
Northwest, where lots of our accounts are located. I see today already work has significantly picked up on 3 of the 5 accts that I work on.
Just a fluke, I think.
Yes, I have 3 accts now, started the end of the spring.
They are willing to cross-train you if you are willing and good in order to keep you busy. You start with 1 account and after you are let off QA and type on that for a while you can get a secondary, etc. This has been my best job in years.
They were bought by Nuance in the spring of 2007.
And apparently they feel that stating that fact makes them sound more respectable, I guess. Nuance also owns Dictaphone and Escription.
I heard an interesting segment on NPR this spring ...
-- quote -- Many health care professionals agree — but there is growing skepticism among doctors, administrators and computer specialists who say the costs of implementing a comprehensive tracking system will outweigh any cost-saving benefits. -- end quote --
=========================================================
It's important to keep in mind that doctors dictating most hospital reports (pathology, imaging are different) are NOT being paid for their time and effort ... the transcription is paid for by the hospital in order to provide the HOSPITAL with documentation THEY need for JACHO ... yes, the doctors do get a copy for their records and some reports are used by those doctors to justify billing for services (surgeons) ... but except where doctors NEED these reports -- Radiology/Pathology/Cath Lab -- most often in contracted joint venture based services -- the doctors often already feel exploited (not to mention being on all sorts of committes gratis as well).
For many private practice doctors, as you can hear in their voices, the time they spend dictating is the longest private quiet time they get all day.
Apparently (another NPR segment I cant find) even Doctors Offices -- which have paid out of pocket for EMR to enhance their practices -- are not properly using it -- to much trouble and bother
(Don't know but I would quess the same old same old military-industrial complex types are the heavy investors in this new technology)

What season is THAT? Late spring/early summer? .. sm
or the figment of some MTSO's imagination or latest line of BS??
It's neither. It's ALWAYS slow this time of year, between Spring Break and Easter.
By the week after next we'll be drowning in work.
Not too bad. It's spring holidays and people are on vacation. Should pick up anytime. nm
