Merit of DeVenture's Reply

In Reply to: DeVenture Reply on Recent Dispute - DeVenture Health Partners

I have to give DeVenture credit for making their reply sound so credible. However, my understanding is that this case was not about one of your MTs at home. This case is about one of your administrative staff members NOT one of your typists, so this does not compare whatsoever. Nice try though.

DeVenture Reply on Recent Dispute

Recently, a posting on this site referred to a dispute with a former member of our administrative staff.  What needs to be understood is that there are two sides to every story. To date, the case has been seen by a commission composed of appointed community people, not lawyers or judges.  We will be following the legal process such that justice will be heard, and know that once the actual legal system is able to review the merits of the case, they will see that the issue is not one of discrimination at all.


We at DeVenture are proud of our reputation of being a fair, honest and transparent company.  We have employees across the United States and are proud of the fact that over 97% our employees are also stay-at-home women, many of whom are also moms.  We have a generous health and benefits plan because we understand the value in investing in the long term health and wellbeing of our employees and their families.  As is clearly stated in our policy and procedure manual, we follow the letter of the law when it comes to maternity leave, and we even allow our MTs and employees to have flexible schedules so that they can work at home and care for their children at the same time.  We have many examples of employees that have worked for us, gone on leaves, including maternity leave and come back to work once they were ready to do so.  We will continue to support all of our employees equally as we understand the value of the work and life balance in all that we do.


I am using Merit.
I also think they have a Dictaphone.
MERIT

I found it to be a very user friendly platform to use.


Actually, I was on the Merit side.
Now I work for a company using Dictaphone, and I'm happy.
Only some of MW uses that. The ER work is all done on MeriT, which is their own. nm

Not all MW ER work is on MeriT - sm
I work on a primarily ER account and we are on the Dictaphone platform.  I really love working for Medware.
I use Merit on the ER team

Merit Program
Compared to EXText? No comparison, way worse.
Love Merit
I love the Merit platform, but it's pretty much the only one I've known other than Medware's older one where you had to dial in. Merit is probably the only reason I stay with the company since I don't want to learn a new platform and I'm afraid it will be tedious. They do not have enough work right now though on the ER side, but maybe acute care and Dictaphone does.
MeriT versus ExText
I just started with Medware a little over a month ago as an Editor and work on the MeriT System. I worked on ExText before joining Medware and I like MeriT better. ExText is a great program, but I think MeriT is more MT friendly.
Medware Merit platform ~ anyone use

Hoping someone could let me know how well the 2 work together.  Is the Merit platform easy to use ~ how does it compare to Extext?  Thanks a bunch for any info!!!



Merit side of Medware....
Can anyone give me their opinion on how easy it is to get lines, etc. on the Merit side of Medware?  I am currently on the dictaphone side, but have such problems with the software locking up that before I leave the company completely was wondering how the Merit side was.  Thanks. 
merit versus dictaphone
merit sucks compared to extext
Any information on Merit Tech

in AZ?


Thanks


Amen! I am a reviewer on the Merit side and could not
I have experienced nothing bad. Recruiter was honest and great to work with. Training was great and my Team Lead is the best!! Very happy with everything at Medware. I left a horrible company (OSi)!!!

I can see why they were voted Employer of the Year. They rock!!!!
Medware's Merit works with satellite

I have high speed satellite (DirecWay) and work for Medware.


Medware has 2 platforms, Merit and EXText
They use 2 platforms, their own called Merit and Dictaphone's EXText.  Depends on what work type and account you ask for, different teams for each one.  Hope that helps, I have been with Medware about 6 months and use EXText, it's awesome.  I am on a clinic account.
I should say that this is for ER work, employee, Merit system. nm

How is MW's MeriT program as far as productivity goes? just curious

MW also uses their own software, Merit, which is very easy and organized. nm

Anyone use the Merit platform with MW? Good, bad, average? nm

I have worked on both sides, Merit and dictaphone.

I think the Dictaphone is better but the account I had you could not view old reports.  You could open up another text client and view them that way, but opening up 2 word documents of any kind messed things up and I had to get out of everything and start over. 


As far as the dictators, I had an easy-dictator account with both Merit and Dictaphone and  yes, there was more than enough work to do on the Dictaphone side but the Merit account ran out quite a bit.    I had encountered 3 different team leads during my stay tere and all were as nice as they could be.


whups - sorry, reply to wrong "who wants to be" reply
if I only had a brain...

Again, sorry to BTDT.
Anybody running Smartype with the Medware MeriT program? (nm)

Word based expanders work with Merit
Hope that helps
You can't pick what accounts you get, only whether you are ER or acute. I do 2000+ on ER, Merit p
woowoo
Merit is what is screwed up. As usual. New managers couldn't care less.
nm
Medware Merit or Voice Recognition platform..help me decide please.

t.y.


I wasn't productive on MeriT. Too much time spent entering demographic information...

There is no roster to pull patient names from, so you have to type what the docs say, and those ER docs speak at lightening speed.  I spent more time trying to get the patient name right than I did typing the report.  I really, really hated that.


um, only 1 harsh reply; the other 3 were in reply to the 1

DeVenture
Anybody work for DeVenture?  Need info.
Deventure...

Nice people, but I found their platform to be rather tedious and time-consuming.  Also very strict on scheduling and I needed more flexibility. 


HTH.. 


DeVenture ?
Any DeVenture feedback?  All e-mails kept confidential.  Thanks!
Deventure

I see unanswered posts about Deventure and thought I would give my opinion. I am new there, but impressed. Setup was extremely smooth and recruiter, supervisor, and tech people are on the ball. Good feedback and encouragement. Great accounts and not-so-great accounts. The constant ads are because they are adding new accounts by the minute.


 


DeVenture

I was just hired by DeVenture. Can anyone tell me anything at all about this company that they would like to share?


Thanks in advance!


Did you say you are now with DeVenture?
I think you did in another post, if I'm mistaken I apologize!  This totally sounds like something they would do.  Truly some great people there!
deventure
does anyone know if deventure has work strictly in the US or do they outsource to india?  I was wondering whether or not to apply but don't want to if they outsource.  Thanks in advance.
DeVenture??
Any opinions?  good/bad???
DeVenture -

DeVenture...sm

Okay, I didn't get any responses about the equipment from DeVenture, so I have another question.  I have read that the pay is on the low side, but is it possible to make a decent salary with them? Is the platform user friendly?  Thanks.


DeVenture
I work part-time for DeVenture and you have you use your own computer. They did not provide me with a foot pedal either. They pay 4 cpl for editing.
DeVenture pay
DeVenture pays only 4 cpl for editing.
Deventure anybody? Looking for sm
some information. Line rate and lpd? M-F or do you work 1 day on the weekends? How is their major medical-affordable for a family? How long does it take to kick in? Just trying to get a few answers first before I fill out the app.
How is the pay at DeVenture?

Deventure Pay
Actually, that's pretty good rate of pay for eScription. I get 3.9 cents per line. This week, I'm up to 600 lph.
DeVenture
I have one main and two backups. Plenty of work on all of them.
Deventure
I've been with Deventure for over 2 years. I'm very happy there also.
deventure VR pay
Does anybody know what Deventure pays for VR position? Thanks.
Deventure
I really thought this was going to be a great company to work for until the Recruiter/QA supervisor tried to cover herself/save face by telling a blatant lie.  The end. So, be careful and watch your back. Sometimes it is those who initially seem so nice and helpful that end up being not so honest.
Deventure

Hayseed,


I'm responding.  I just didn't see your note until now.
