Transcription and their online school?  i have looked and looked through these posts on companies and can't find anything about them.

i was wondering if theyr'e a good school to go through.  and, if not, which online school would be best?

I cannot seem to find anything, good, bad, or otherwise.  Mostly I'm in interested in the usual things -- platformed use, pay on time, difficult dictators, etc.

TIA

I liked the fact they only required 32 hours for insurance. I realized the cpl was probably a little lower but that somewhat made up for it. I was contacted to test with them a few weeks ago. I took the test (a long and very detailed test I might add with transcription portion and many multiple choice).

 I feel I did reasonably well yet I never even heard a word back from them.? To me if someone took the time to take an hour long test at least they could do respond to the potential employee whether you passed it or not.

I love working there.  They know you by name, not number, and they are great!  We've had a lot of extra work lately and instead of requiring overtime, we have contests with great prizes (money, gift certificates, medical books, etc.)

Insurance is $68/pay period for the employee.  Adding another person or a family makes it jump substantially.  The copay is more than usual ($30) but the prescription coverage is awesome.

I've tried to find some information on SOAP Transcription and have not been able to find any.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?  Thanks much, Brenda G, IN

SOAP stands for subjective, objective, assessment, plan. Those are the headings that usually comprise a clinic note.

I ditto your sentiments..it IS like getting hooked to a soap.  I read so many posters that tend to go for the jugular, when an opinion is posted contrary to some beliefs.  My daughter, who is also an MT, but in house at a hospital, just got "hooked" on this board and can't believe how "catty" some can be. 

Well, it is all over, in house or at home, in medical transcription or K-Mart, been around for ages, but sometimes it gets brutal in my book.

I won't flame you for being a MQ MT...been there myself for close to 10 years now and it works for me, period.

Hello everyone

Has anyone ever worked for SOAP Transcription Services. I cannot find anything about them.

Any information on SOAP out of Michigan would be appreciated.  Good/bad, platform, pay on time, etc....  TIA

I would take everything here - good and bad - with a grain of salt.  I feel that each company is different for each person who works there.  Not everyone fits everywhere in any career.  If there was a "perfect" company, there would be no one looking for a new job.  I currently work for MQ, which I am sure will invite some flaming, but what works for me does not necessarily work for the next person.  My sister started two weeks after me and only lasted four months.  She had a different experience than I did and is bitter but does not say much to me because she knows I am happy.  I just want to sit down and work and be done at 5:00 and close the door.  I get my check on time, it has never bounced, has been incorrect a few times but corrected quickly and I have the amount of work I want and the work type I enjoy.  We need to weigh both sides and once we say our piece, back out.  At this point, if the same posts are made by the same people time after time, it really takes away the purpose of this site which is to network and help each other.
