Revised Medware Editor Pay
Having been subject to Medware's recent pay revision for editors/reviewers, I'm really struggling to meet the production required to match my previous pay.  Sacrificing quality for the sake of processing massive amounts of reports tends to give me a gut wrenching feeling that sooner or later something will come back to haunt me and even worse, that it could possibly have a negative impact on patient care.  Are there other editors/reviewers out there who were working at MW before and have since sought employment elsewhere due to the change?  If so, can anyone recommend a company to apply with?  Thanks so much for any information you can share!!
I left Medware at the end of

the year due to severe lack of work. Got tired of fighting with everyone else for work so finally threw in the towel. Not sure how the work is now though. Pay was on time, direct deposit every 2 weeks. Insurance was not bad, paid days off were good. Followed previous supervisor to another company.


As for their web page looking great it is out of date by YEARS and has not been updated at all in a LONG, LONG time. If you click on their team there are only about 2 or 3 people listed on there who actually still work there (2 of them being the owners) - the others that are still listed left between 2004 and June 2007.


I left OSi for Medware for this very reason
And glad I left!
I am a QA EDITOR looking for work
that was not kind.
I work on Editor to. I agree with everything you said 100%
That was a great post and everything I would have said in a nutshell! Glad VR is working out for you as it is for me. Love Editor. Love VR on it. One thing tho....I do not do 500 lph. Yikes! More like 300 lph but I don't get paid 4 cpl, I get paid 6.5. Keep up the great work!!
I work on Dictaphone Editor...sm
But you will NEVER be able to sit back and relax and let the words fly by. Where you got that notion is beyond me. you still have to work. You still have to be careful. You will still need to make corrections. If a software was that good, there would be no need for MTs. I think you need to change your idea of how VR works or you will be sorely disappointed. I am sorry you have the wrong idea about it, and give it a few more weeks. Training on VR for 2 or 3 weeks is not long enough. I have been working on it for a year (MT for 15), and my production speed is STILL improving. Good luck to you.
Anyone work for Rapid Transcript, INC as an editor ? nm

Anyone work as an editor for Transcription Services, LLC North Carolina

I actually left about a year ago and work for another company that's running out of work. Have to
x
Much good work going to India. Bad work left
xx
I don't work for TT but when I left my former job I
was hired over the phone with the new company on my first phone interview with them. Companies do not always test if you have the experience and they can tell that you know your stuff when they talk to you.
I left for no work. There is work on some accounts, but NO
work on other accounts.  
I left MQ and went to work for them. I am level 8 SM
and on an account with lots of ESLs and started out doing DS which for me, not very productive. I put in my 2 weeks notice, and told my team leader why.
I left last year because the work kept
running out. Sorry to hear that the situation hasn't improved--looks like I did the right thing. Oh well...
What work will be left? N-D getting new accounts?
x
Yes, I can't afford to have no work so I left TT
I dislike the turn of events as they were my favorite company. I have nothing bad to say about TT. I simply got another job.
Sure, but what kind of work is left . sm
for straight typing?  VR rejects? 99% ESL and 100% crap?  At this point in time, there doesn't seem to be any reason for the VR MTs to envy the straight typers.
Anyone Work for Medware?
Still fishing for some input on working for this comany, anyone got any info?
Does anybody work for Medware?
How productive are you?  Is the platform user friendly?  I'm thinking of applying there.
Work for Medware
You are right, it is an awesome platform.  Easy to get good line count.
I work for Medware
They are a very good company, I started out part-time and then went to full-time.  Good benefits, direct deposit and steady work.  Don't know too much about Spheris but I am quite happy with Medware.  Good luck to you.
Anyone know how much Medware work goes to
nm
How is Medware to work for??
I was just offered a job with them.  Anyone out there give me any info on them??
Just work for Medware

I currently work for Medware....sm
and absolutely LOVE it! They do match a percentage on 401k. I also think it depends on the Team Leader regarding holidays. Everything is negotiable. I always have work, and the Team Leaders I have are great! You also have to kind of take what you hear on this board (or most) at times with a grain of salt because as you said, there are lovers and haters of MOST companies, but what one person may hate, another may love. This is only my second MT job, and I believe I will be retiring with this one. I have been one of the lucky ones to have only worked for 2 companies. The first one I worked as an IC, and I would still be there, but needed an employee position with bennies and other perks such as sick leave, vacation, etc. when my hubby got laid off from his job. I have to say that I could not have chosen a better company to work for, and I too was skeptical at first. You just need to ask questions and make sure ANY job is the right one for you. I wish you luck!
I work for Medware....sm
and LOVE it. I have been with them for almost a year now. They pay on time. They have a GREAT staff, incentives, platform, good benefits, etc. HTH!
Medware has no work for anybody
.
If even that much work left, and hopefully they will be able to afford aspirin. (nm)
zzzzzzs
I left due to no work for 2 months and they were STILL hiring
when that was going on.  I would stay clear for a while unless you can survive off of 200 lines per day and want to work 24/7 and fight over the lines as they come in.
I left there as they were always running out of work from overhiring.

Are there any companies left that do not work on platforms?
I have five years' experience but have never worked on a platform before.  I have worked straight out of my own version of Microsoft Word and am nervous about my productivity with learning a new platform.  Can you still use Expanders with platforms?  Any info would be helpful. Thanks.
I noticed that when I left DSG to work for another company...
my lines increased dramatically...don't know if it is because of the ESLs on the account or what, but lines were so hard to get.
Left 3 months ago for lack of work
and haven't looked back.  It is just the nature of the beast than when a network of accounts change to VR and MTs are doing more lpd now, there will be less work to spread around.  There were already problems with not having enough work, so I did not wait for the transition to VR  I had already moved down over the previous year from full time to part time because of lack of work.  Glad I made the move because I am also the sole breadwinner for my household and can't afford to go without work.
Which platform do you work on at Medware?

nm


you don't happen to work for medware do you??...
I work on an account that sounds just like the one you are on and it is horrible. After 4 months still can't get a decent line count on this account and I have several years of experience.
I work for Medware and could not be happier

Medware has been a great company to work for, I have been with them for over two years.  Very happy at Medware.


medware and cymed...anyone work for both and if so...sm
I was wondering which company you prefered.  They are about the same benefit wise and such, but was wondering how they differ as far as management, work load, platform, etc.  Also, am just taking general comments on both companies - good or bad.  I have a offer from both and not sure which company to go to.  I have looked in the archives, but just not sure as there is good and bad for both.  Thanks.
I too work for Medware and LOVE it...
They were a very good change for me also. The benefits are good. My team leaders are GREAT. I could NOT have picked a better place to work. They DEFINITELY are a GREAT company to work for, and I too have been VERY happy there!
I work for Medware...I love it!

Medware is giving work to her.

I just left a company due to lack of work, Monica.

Yea, you left out the fact that nobody is forcing you to work where you do...find a better job if

Are there any good companies to work for left??? Suggestions?
Looking for a place to call home. I am so tired of all the disorganized, cheap, and discouraging companies out there. I just cannot find a good fit. I work hard.. very hard.. and I would just like a company to be fair back, decent pay, benefits, organized.. etc.. Help...
I worked there for over a year...left because of lack of work...
one months lots of work, the next three months no work, so on and so forth...when there is a little extra work they do a big hire and once again the faithful MTs who stick by them have no work...I have been gone for over a year and it is still the same way...
Are there any companies left who don't send work offshore?
?
Ditto. Please don't buy a computer for work from this company. I left (sm)
this company because of lack of work.
I also vote for Webmedx - used to work for the Q, left long ago sm
Have not worked for Transcend or SoftScript so can't judge. I agree with the above poster; pay good, shift diff, PTO, decent bennies. Lots of work. Keep in mind there are two parts of Webmedx - the one on Enterprise platform and ChartMatrix; the ChartMatrix side seems to have more negative reviews.
Tired: Has worked picked up at FN. Used to work there and left for WX. sm
Would kind of like to go back. Loved the gang; I used to be a YOGer. Had to leave about 1-1/2 years ago because of no work. Still mostly IC? Thanks.
Thinking about applying with Medware. Is work and
