no way would I do that for $1 per minute. Some normal reports might be 10 secs long.

Radiology IC position

I am looking for a part-time IC position with flexible hours transcribing radiology reports. Do anyone own of a company?


Thanks!


looking for prn radiology position
I'm hoping and praying for a prn-type/part-time radiology position too. I have over 12 years experience and work in the Radiology Admin office. I can do progress/chart notes but I find I'm in Google and this slows me down. I can do a ton of rad reports/US/CT/MRI/Angio/Nuc Med's, etc quickly. I've worked for Keystrokes and others before but waste too much time on too many dictators and learning new words and new drugs (I was only promised 5 dictators!).... But, I've read that most places are going to VR. My hospital is resisting it so far, but due to the Economy they are cutting down OT. I'm available nights and weekends to type.
TransTech Radiology MT Position
Anyone heard back from them?
I'm thinking about applying at Keystrokes for a radiology position.
Could anyone tell me if they pay per report, how much they start you with and if there are increases along the way. Have seen past post with different amounts and have seen a post in the archives stating 1.25 per report and 1.25 more for reports over 2 minutes long.
The DQS is an IC position and the Dictaphone EXtext is an employee position....
both part time...both making 9.5 cents per line...which is better IC or employee?
Thanks :)
Keystrokes has the best radiology accounts IMO. I have plenty of work and radiology only. nm
I make a good living and rarely run out of work. When I do, it is for a few minutes at a time and usually because the rads have not started early enough. No other complaints!
Keystrokes for radiology. They are the biggest for radiology out of all of the companies out there.
I have been there 2 years and have been very happy. I make a lot more money than when I worked for Edix/Spheris.
I'm hoping too as I accepted position a position also nm

Keystrokes has a radiology division. They used to be radiology only but their sm
customers started referring other departments to them.

I know that they just got a bunch of new accounts!
For radiology, Keystrokes is the way to go. They seem to have the most radiology accounts. sm
I have been very, very busy since starting with them 19 months ago. No complaints at all other than one or two of the radiologists who speak at the speed of light and expect us to be able to transcribe what sounds to be a mouse on a treadmill!
If radiology is going to VR, why are there so many job openings for radiology MTs? nm

Ascend Radiology & MDI Radiology?
Is anyone currently working on or know anything about Ascend radiology or MDI radiology accounts?  What platforms do they use?  Do they have a lot of ESLs or crappy dictators?  Thanks in advance
I think she is referring to
what you said in your post about this lady being an idiot.  I don't think that was bullying or anything.  Although, I was not looking for an opinion on a person here, I was simply looking for feedback on my post.  And NO I am not putting you down for anything you said in your post.  I really don't want this thread to turn into personal attacks and all the other junk I have seen on this board.  I just want some feedback.  Thanks all.
Which MDI are you referring to? - sm
If you are referring to MDI-FL, I use IT ProV with one of their progrmas, and it works great. They have very good benefits for employee, but I would ask the recruiter about that. Hope this helps.
Which OSi are you referring to? sm
I heard bad things about the OSi in Florida (Outsourcing Solutions or something like that), or are you talking about the other OSi in Pennsylvania (I think)?  Thanks a lot! 
What are you referring to?
nm
I think you are referring to the other OSI...
Opti-Script is out of State College, PA and I'm pretty sure they don't outsource. I like them so far. MT friendly and nice people.
Which MDI are you referring to, MDI-MD or MDI-FL? nm

What exactly are you referring to?
I work for Amphion and don't usually do unpaid busy work...so now I'm confused.  As far as their line rate goes, it is comparable or better than most of the nationals out there.  So, I am quite confused as to your post...feel free to email if you don't want to discuss it here, I am very curious...
What exactly are you referring to...
*all those demographics*??? It's one lousy number to type in, 7 lil ole digits...come on now, that doesn't slow me down that much. I'd probably produce much more if I'd keep XXXXX off this board for more than 30 minutes! So, don't blame the lil ole 7 digits I type in on the DI, cause that aint it...try again...
Not sure what you are referring to,but (sm)
could it be that they are no longer the little company - they have grown so fast and are so busy............is the atmosphere changing?  They are still wonderful to work for and take care of you when you need something, it's just....... can't finish a sentence here.  Still the best place I've ever worked.
I believe I know who you are referring to.
They did that to me too when I applied and I did not go any further with them. I do not know why it is important for them to know anything about your credit.
The OP was not referring to anyone in particular. SM
She was simply giving her opinion and I agree with her.

An impartial post would give the pros and cons of any given company and they all have them.


and that is what I am referring to...
She is obviously speaking up for her friend--what's wrong with that? And it doesn't matter why her friend stayed with the company so long. Maybe she was hoping (like we all hope) that it would work out. You guys have no right to laugh at ANYONE who wants to make things right.
Yes, indeed that is what I was referring to
I am glad someone is literate!
I don't believe anyone is referring to the OP
They're referring to that wacko who jumped in and derailed the entire thread with yet another TT rant and how much she hates her job and her company.

I don't think anyone is speaking negatively about the OP at all if I'm following this thread correctly.
I'm not sure which posts you are referring to
but I am the one who claimed the VR platform was released too soon.  I never said I was making good money on it.  In fact, I claim just the opposite.  My pay was drastically decreased on VR as opposed to straight typing because of the sound quality and the technical problems.  I did not make contradicting posts.  I can't explain the closeness of the IP numbers, but mine should all be the same as I have a static IP number. 
Which post are you referring to? (SM)
You can report posts you feel should be reviewed for deletion on the Monitor board at anytime.

Which post uses the name of company President?

Are you referring to the co. out of N. Carolina?
If so, I would also like some information.  I have been hired by them but the account has not started up yet.
Are you referring to the Sten Tel
There is obviously more than one Sten Tel in MA. Please clarify which one you are speaking of.
If you're referring to me...(sm)
I do acute care with about 90% ESL.
What post(s) are you referring to? Thank you. nm
x
which company are you referring to then? nm

Are you referring to Sten tel?
This sounds almost identical to my experience with them.
huh?? what are you referring to? saw no misuse of --sm
there, their, or they're in any of the above messages. SHEESH.
Are you referring to MTs who worked for
SPi before the merger, or those who now work for CyMed/SPi? 
hello -- I said I was referring to 2 different situations
x
I am referring to DSG in Atlanta, GA
...and I think those who replied are too.
Who are you referring to that has no work??

Can you tell us the companies that you are referring to?

I can definitely relate to what you are saying, but I want to know where you went that is better.


we were referring to the one who posted below you
nm
MDI-Trans ? Are you referring to -sm
MDI-Transcend? If so, checks are always on time (direct deposit), work is not all that steady, but this is a slow time everywhere. As for benefits, they are by far the best in the industry as far as I what I have checked out. About insurance rates, don't know because I don't need them. Hope this helps.
If you are referring to MedScribe in FL...
They have both IC and employee positions.  The full-time employee positions are based both on hours and lines transcribed, meaning you have a schedule to stick to plus a required minimum amount of lines per pay period.  They do have a 12-hour work window. 
What posts are you referring to?
I'm afraid I'm not sure which ones you're speaking of, but we would not delete a post simply because it was positive.

There are many reasons posts are deleted. Did the post have somebody's name in it? Was there anything that could have offended anyone, thus someone reporting it as needing to be deleted? Was it posted by a non-US MT? Was it connected to a post with any of these things going on?

Please do let me know which posts, and I'd be happy to check into it right away.
I think that's what fatcat was referring to (sm)
Notice how she capitalized the word YOUR for emphasis?
If you are referring my post...
I think it's pretty clear..
Referring people
Please don't take this wrong, but why would you ever refer people you don't know??? The reason I am asking this is that in the past, I have done this myself and ended up getting really burned and just made myself look bad. Please be careful who you refer. It can bite you in the seat of the britches one day.
What company are you referring to?

To what platform are you referring?
I have this problem with Dictaphone Ex text.
I was referring to the one in FL. Sorry if confusing....NM

Your posts are EXACTLY what I'm referring to...
and I think you are the one who needs to stay away. It's sickening to see your kind of attitude here all the time. It doesn't matter how or what anyone posts people like you turn it around and make it a nasty assault on everyone who says anything.
