OSI--Would either of you OSI employees mind if I emailed you privately with a couple of questions?
nm
I emailed Amanda re; some questions about working for them.
Haven't heard back yet. Guess I'll look for a different part-time company. Can't afford to hang around waiting.
A couple questions

Do they hire part-time?   Do you need a C-phone or are they internet based?


Thanks 


...couple more questions if you can...
Tested for radiology, but I can do acute care. Can you tell me about the rotating weekends? How many weekends do you actually end up working over about a 3-month period? Does the software have a built-in expander?

Thanks!
I have a couple questions
Do they hire part time?  The website mentions Word 2000.  Does it have to be Word 2000 or will a newer version work, i.e. Word 2002? 
a couple more questions
What is the minimum line count you need with them for part-time and if you need to work outside of your schedule or type earlier/later in the day, how flexible are they with that?  Thanks for the info!
Just a couple questions

How is the platform?


Is rigid schedule required for full-time?


Are there production bonuses?


Thank you!


A couple of questions for you...
What do you mean by acquired 3 private accounts through them? They are your accounts? You bill them, collect the money? Or they are small accounts that only you do? Not sure what you meant there.

If you have no benefits, are you an IC? If you are an employee with no benefits, I'd be looking elsewhere. If you're not being paid what an IC would make, you're getting the short end of the stick.

If you are an IC, you'd need to rewrite your contract at the end of the contract period.

If you're an employee, go for it. Ask for what you feel you deserve. If they value what you do enough, they should be able to meet your needs (especially if they're getting away with not paying benefits!).

Best of luck!
Thanks-couple more questions
This helped some.  What is their line count requirement and is it pretty attainable?  Also, is 40 hours considered full time or can you work less than that for full time?  Again, thanks.
A couple of questions

TTS does this to all of  ICs. She literally will call MTs and threaten your job because you are not on the schedule for your hours.  I was let go because of not working my set hours, yet I did my line count on a daily basis that I said I would do.  Who would you report this to?  Would you report to the DOL or the IRS? 


a couple questions
Also, how do they calculate VR lines, and can you get a good line count?
answer to a couple of your questions..
I did not receive a bonus once I was off 100%. I get what I would consider average pay for most national companies. The last couple weeks have been very, very slow as far as work, but it seems to be picking up. Not sure about the benefit issue, as I have not been there long enough. Decent living is different to everyone, but you should have no problem making their minimum line count and there are some doing quite well, but I am not one of them. LOL. There is a $20 per month charge for their computer, but you can use your own equipment and not get charged the extra. Hopefully that helps some.
Thank you, Denise. Couple of questions . . .
Did they have you do any transcription in the pre-employment phase? Do you get a lot of ESL? What type of work do you do? Is the work put into a pool or are you assigned accounts? Do you have benefits?
A couple more TransTech questions
I'm looking to leave my current job and was thinking about applying to Transtech since there seems to be quite a lot of positive feedback on them.  Before I go through all of the testing/application process, I have a few questions.  Are there accounts actual typing or VR?  Also, what is the pay per cpl generally with experience?  Thanks a lot!
A couple of questions about Transolutions

Does anybody know if their benefits package includes a decent medical insurance plan?


Also, does anyone know what their internet platform is like (I think it's called Apex?).  Good, bad, etc?


A couple of questions, if you don't mind...

1.  Do they have a production incentive/bonus? 


2.  Where I am right now, if I work even a minute over my 8-hour shift, I have to e-mail my supervisor explaining why.  Is KS that strict, or do they allow you to go over a little?  I don't even care if they pay OT or not, just want to finish my job without worrying about the time.  (Sorry, threw in a little vent there.)


Thank you!


 


Acusis--a couple more questions
I just submitted my information to Acusis and  had a couple of questions.  What is their minimum part-time requirement (lines/hours) and do they provide any equipment?  What platform do they use?  Thanks for your help!!!
Couple specific Encompass questions sm

Do they have a consistent workload?


Heavy ESL?


Their benefits package seems amazing, their requirements seem very well detailed and they seem very structured in general.  I like the black-and-whiteness of it. They seem to have their biz together.  Anyone that can verify?


Any loopholes on their behalf from anyone's experience, such as docking for errors, exreme nit-picking (although my accuracy is excellent thus far).  I'm hoping they're not a company that portrays themselves as reputable, family-oriented, professional, etc. and then harass and turn into monsters once you're on board.  Thanks!


A couple questions about Opti-Script
What type of insurance do they offer and what kind of platform do they use?
Actually I posted looking for answers to my questions above, not looking to answer questions, but

to here goes...firstly, I don't know about the platform, only that it is Word based. Secondly, I have many years cardio, and thirdly, no the test was not hard. Still looking for any answers to my questions above. Thanks in advance.

I emailed those below about LTS - sm
in short, good company, good people, pay on time, true IC, have 24-hour TAT---they give you the work, you get it in by deadline that is all they ask. Few hard docs, not a pool but you get do get a variety of assorted doctors (30 or so). They have many accounts at the one of the local hospitals and continously getting more. Plenty of work, in the five years I have worked for them I think it has gotten slow only 2 x and then only for a few days. Small MTSO, the owner and his office manager (who basically runs the company). If you have any questions, just email me.
i emailed you too!
