I think 336 is an NC area code.
I think it's Charlotte, but DH thinks it's Burlington. Either way, NC.


is OP a code name for someone
LOL :)
YES. They are! It is clearly stated in my state code
that any company out of state that does not withhold state taxes will be heavily fined and they will! It took me several years but my state finally quit charging me a late tax fee, returned it, and then went after the company who did not withhold the taxes.
VBC is code for not paying for spaces
Don't be deceived. VBC (virtual black character) is simply a new way of saying - no pay for hitting the spacebar between words.
Feel like their is a code here that I'm desperately trying to decode. Can anyone help?
Would like to know if I'm going to have a job??
oh, and forgot to add typing in the verification code nm

My state has it writtin in their code whose responsibility it is. It is the employer.
I just refused to do it as an employee. After the second year and my written explanation of why I did not do it (being as the employer refused), they sent me back a refund of late fees and told me that they had found many employees in Virginia with the employer I am speaking of and would be going after the company in question. How long it takes them is another story. I hope they get them because they deserve it.

It might not be the law in every state, but it is in mine. It is clear and on their books. I provided the company with that law and they paid no attention.

A good employer will follow the law and have state tax laws in place. I have never had a problem with any other employer from that state, just them.
I think they are in New Jersey. nm

Not sure how it is now, but they were in New Jersey sm
and required you to fly there to train. They hired full-time only, and paid some weird way, like by the page or something. Could be different now ... this was several years ago.

Good luck!
Only 1 in New Jersey
There is only one DocuMed in New Jersey. It's located in Lakeside. Please trust me on this one. You do not want to work for these people.
How is the weather in New Jersey about now.

And how is the weather in New Jersey now for you too.

In New Jersey, from what I understand...
but, honestly, I'm not completely sure.

Med-Scribe out of New Jersey --
I'm thinking of responding to an ad from them.
DocuMed of New Jersey
I worked for them briefly during a slow period with my main service.  The work they gave me was great, their pay rate was commensurate with my experience, and everyone I dealt with in their office was very helpful and friendly.
Med-Scribe - New Jersey

Has anyone worked with the Med-Scribe in New Jersey?  If so, what do you know about them?


 


Thanks!


All Type in New Jersey
If you have good or bad things to say about this company, would like to hear what they are.  Thanks for your time.
All Type New Jersey
I love All Type, I''ve worked with them for almost a year now and I have had nothing but a good experience.  Everyone has been helpful, I love the DocQScribe platform.  In my experience those who post nasty or rude comments about a company are those who didn't meet the level of quality that a company requires.  I work for two different companies and both of them have been professional and each have good and bad things, but mostly good.  I would be cautious of those who post mean-spirited posts on this site.  I hope you find the perfect fit for you.  .
Yes, I agree with calling New Jersey
What has happened is that P and M have a lot more authority than they are capable of handling. for example, I know of an MT whose son was killed in a car accident. For obvious reasons during the funeral and shortly thereafter she could not make her lines, they threatened to cut off her health insurance, single mom. That one broke my heart and I knew I had to leave.
Does Spheris off-shore? Do they have a New Jersey
nm
Nope, don't live in Jersey
That would be a really long trip for me to pick up equipment. It would be nice if they would mention that in their job posting. Oh well ... thanks.
Anyone hear of Cornerstone in New Jersey?

They have a job listing on MTJobs that sounded pretty good.  I need information from someone who has dealt with them before, though.


Thanks


silent type...have to go to New Jersey...nm
I think that is ridiculous and outdated!!!
Well there will come a point in time and it may have already happened that New Jersey gets so many
complaints and so many MTs quit that these 2 ladies may have gone as far as they can. I think it is already getting there. No one wants to work with them anymore or cares if the works is done or not. You can only push people so far and that is all they will take and it is obvious that has already happened with Amherst.
Advanced Medical Transc. New Jersey - sm

Anyone know anything about this place.  Saw an old post to stay away.  Anything current?


Took the test and heard from them within 1 hour wanting to hire me.  Lady hard to hear, lots of background noise, very weird test, undecipherable phone number.  Wondering if I should even bother with all these red flags.


I just spoke with a company from New Jersey today...sm
Rude was not the word for this recruiter...My goodness, makes me think that is the norm in New Jersey.  geez!!!
Any current information on Med-Scribe (New Jersey)
Just wondering if anyone currently works there or knows anything about them. Thanks
I believe that the Medscribe out of Florida is a different company than the one out of New Jersey
but I could be wrong... I applied with the one out of New Jersey and there never seems to be anything on here about them, which to me is a good sign. This was for an Dictaphone account also.
Well if it is Amherst stick together and all of you call New Jersey. I did and a lot of people in my
office did and I dont know if it did any good or not but when I talked to New Jersey I got the distinct impression that were getting a lot of calls. They were very grouchy for sure. Dont just sit back and take it or nothing will change for you. There QA plan is so abusive it should be thrown out. You wouldnt believe the things they take off for to make sure you dont get QA points. They are a very very abusive office and it seems as though they like to make people miserable so it seems they must be very miserable women. You know, misery loves company.
Documed Medical Transcritpions, LLC out of New Jersey...anyone with info?

Does anyone have any personal information about Silent Type, Inc out of New Jersey, or

Van Belkum out of Michigan?  I posted on w/e, when not many on the board.  Will try again.   Thank you.  


Trans-Scribe out of New Jersey... any info on this company?
cc
NJPR is in NJ, not NY, stands for North Jersey Physicians Review I believe,
try googling for a web page, I am quite sure they have one, you can the info and I think a phone number there to call.
Any recent info about Cornerstone Professional Services of New Jersey??
Would love to hear some very RECENT information about this company, regarding staff, pay rate, workflow, ease of platform, etc.  Only found old information in archives.  If you don't want to share on the board, please email me. Thanks for your help.
Unfortunately, this isn't available in my area. Who wants to pay LD anyway.

another Bay Area MT

I live in Santa Clara and I totally agree with you.  SF and the Bay Area as a whole are very unique.  I do not think that I could live anywhere else either.  My life feels so easy here.  No freezing my tush off in the snow.  In fact, I am still growing herbs and swiss chard outside.  I can take the bus and/or train all over even to the beach.  I enjoy all the diversity we have here in the Bay.  I grew up in South Florida and in some ways the Bay is similar, but even better with our microclimates.  I love the fall here.  Just a little cool, but yet we still have the trees turn with beautiful yellow and orange leaves.  Most all of the people I have met here are very nice.  I enjoy going to the different farmer's markets and taking a day trip to SF.  I enjoy the Ferry Building and its market very much. 


 


 


bay area MT
I grew up in South Florida and lived in PA about 20 minutes from Philly before moving to the Bay and I think that my quality of life here is very high. I live in the Silicon Valley:) Personally, I think that my cost of living was much higher in PA than it is here. To each their own though:)
I can tell you in my area...
We have two very large health systems here, each with multiple large hospitals under their umbrella:  Mercy Health Partners and ProMedica.  ProMedica is the largest employer in our city (Toledo), even over the Daimler-Chrysler and Jeep plants.  ProMedica does house some MT's and some work at home depending on which hospital and department.  However, their pay is exceedingly low.  Mercy, however, is the ultimate dream job.  Any of their hospitals will hire remote MT's while still making you an employee, their pay is outstanding and their benefits are outstanding.  In exchange for that is simply a regular work schedule, being 1st, 2nd or 3rd shift.  Yes, I wish they'd all do it this way!
What area of the country are you in?
//
If this is the one in Los Angeles area sm

they have never paid on time and this has gone on for years and years.  Best to work for a company that you can rely on to pay you. Do a search in the archives.


What State or area
I get paid per minute.  I got paid $1.25 for 8 years and never asked for a raise until last year.  Now I get paid $1.35, was told that was the going rate in my area.
I would think it does, especially in the same geographical area. nm
s
What general area
The 3 big ones in my area have most of their MTs at home with full benefits and incentive plans. Most of their systems require high speed and some have a mileage limit for repairs, etc. Start calling all the local hospitals within 100 mile radius of you and see if they have MTs working from home. Most require a short period of in-house training but if you're experienced they usually send you home in a week.

see if earthlink is available in your area....sm
I live in an area that not too much is available, but was able to get cable internet through earthlink, although i have satellite tv, and they have phone available too. It's $19.95 for the first 6 months then goes to $24.95. Unlimited calling, caller id, and voicemail is included. They also have DSL internet available too.
Philadelpia area

Sorry. I know I must be looking in the wrong area.
I could swear in the past I have seen things but I haven't been on here for months and could not remember what the feedback was.  I tried putting TTS in the company board area and also spelled out the whole name but nothing comes up, which is odd.
I know lots of QT MTs are in that area so figure
someone knows better than I do.   Wondered why they would maintain 2 offices as they aren't that big and don't have that many office/tech people - as far as I know they only have 1 tech guy and he's one of the owners, and out of the office more than in.  It doesn't matter, as long as my checks continue to come.
Are they really? It's a new MT company out of Tampa area. Do you think
it's the same people? Why would they have a different company?
geographical area blacklisting
I know a doctor in Richmond, VA, who has smeared one person for years. He gets away with it because everybody covers for him which is very puzzling. They can't all be afraid of him, can they?
Ahhh... another Bay Area devotee! : ) (sm)
Yes, the climate is a huge reason why I like it here. I could live more cheaply inland, in the Central Valley, but the weather there is horrible about 98% of the time! (100+ all summer; windy in spring, with too many bugs!; windy in the fall (though better temps, at least); and pea-soup fog all winter. BLEAH.

As to what you said in your email, yes - I'm considering doing the 2nd-job thing. I would keep this one for the benefits, do the minimum line count, and then try to find a part-time IC account that could be done to fill in the gaps.
