but do remember the amount of income you do your calculations on is the amount AFTER your deductions.  Refer to IRS website for deductible office space, equipment, and expenses, etc. for home office.

Thanks for all the info! Is there ANYONE happy w/Oracle?
I was given their name by someone who said it was a great company, but then her email addresss quit working for me. I was hoping for better. :(
If you don't complete what can you do? I don't,,,
work myself silly trying to get caught up. If I'm short, so be it....it's my paycheck, so I am really only harming myself in the wallet.The thing that irritates me is that when everyone is short they try to make up their time on their days off during my regular work time, taking work away from me.
you are a complete mess!!
ewwwwwww!
Complete with mug shot
with a lot of help from her
Why The Complete Turnaround... NOW
?? at this point in time? The problem is, begging for work like this is humiliating. You have work today, how about tomorrow? Will they open the flood gates again?
BTW--I complete my work in the daytime
..definitely not interested in 3rd shift!
Ad says if you complete testing, you will be entered

Don't know company, but post seems complete to me. nm
 
Complete medical transcription
has anyone ever heard of the co Complete Medical Transcription?  I was offered a job, ic status, but when she called the caller id came up as mynameisjoanna, WI no number.  Also her email just says joanna.  do you think this is an overseas co.  any thoughts??
It took me 6 months to get complete refund...
and I left the company in January. They at first only refunded me 100 dollars and said due damage to the monitor they would not be refunding the remaining 200. I explained to them there must be some mistake because the monitor was in perfect condition when I shipped it back to them but they still refused to refund the remaining 200 dollars, but then out of the blue I received a check last week for the 200 dollars and they sent an email saying Although the equipment was damaged, we have decided to refund the remaining 200 dollars anyway. Okay whatever but the equipment was not damaged when I shipped it back, but I am glad they decided to do the right thing.
The company has a complete checklist...
They state you must have Win XP for example.  They mention that Word 2000 is not compatible, but that Word 2003 is.  They don't say anything about Word 2002.  I work on another software that is web based and it's compatible with a USB pedal, so I kinda don't get why EditScript would need a 9-pin pedal to work, in which case I would need an adapter since my PC is all USB.

I'm being hateful to complete strangers?
you've got it all figured out, now don't you? Guess you told me, huh?

Are you dyslexic by any chance, or just in a rush to judgment? The first 10 years of my career, I was an in-house MT with great pay and benefits. We were respected employees in the hospital and I enjoyed a reputation as being a top-notch MT....that's how I got a 30% raise with free benefits at Baylor College Medicine and later at Methodist Hospital in the Texas Medical Center in Houston, working during the hey-day of heart transplant advances made by such world-renown doctors as Dr. Denton Cooley and Dr. Michael DeBakey. You may have heard of them. So you see, I never really considered myself a failure, having been in the position to have the privilege of being a part of that. I guess I needed you to bring that to my attention.

After outsourcing, I maintained my connections to the Baylor and the TMC through my accounts and typed my way through ground-breaking AIDS research and later pioneering advances in plastic surgery. Silly me. I didn't measure my success in terms of dollars and cents, worldly possessions and the like. I took great pride in my work (still do) and learned to struggle through the love/hate relationship I had with it. At least I had the satisfaction of knowing that I was a part of something that was intelligent, important, worthwhile and helpful to others. I stayed in it for the only real reason I have ever understood throughout the years...quality patient care. I had a contribution to make to that. You see, dear, it was not an industry to me...it was my calling.

My post was an attempt to address the unnecessary hate part of that relationship. My comments were not directed toward some mean-spirited stranger in need of a self-righteous superiority fix, but feel free to trounce me to your heart's content. I did not put in all those years of hard work to be run out of the profession by theiving subcontractors or the likes of you. I had a story to tell and a message to deliver to the penny pinching TTD scavenger, no more, no less.

Your judgmental, snide and trite observations are too petty to merit further comment, except to say that you need to reserve the pity party for yourself. You are the one who has made a sad and meaningless commentary here, not me.

But what about the ER report being disjointed and not complete - sm
Is that the way to run a medical record? Is that the way to report a human experience? I think something needs to be done about this sloppy and I do mean sloppy reporting of a patient medical case.
I am sure she was legally bound not to say anything about the sale until it was complete. That is s
business by the person who owns the business and the person who is purchasing it. She built her business, paid people for the work they did (does not owe anyone more than that), sold it and moved on. Why is it so hard for anyone to understand and why make it personal?
Thanks! How long does the test typically take to complete? nm

I was also told I had to complete 8 hours even if I got my lines before that. nm

Just update your resume, be more complete but keep it brief. They just want to know the nature of yo
If you want a job, and they want to know how to fit you for which department, best to say what you can do like basic 4 acute 10 years, etc. Nothing wrong with that question. They are just trying to match your skills with the job. Some MTs have only done clinic notes or psych notes and some have never done ops no matter 10 or 20 years, etc. Put yourself in their shoes and you will find a reasonable answer. IMHO
uh, judging by this complete thread, sounds like a lot

Craigslist is full of complete idiots.

The funny thing is, I've seen dealers post with grammar/spelling like that.


I make it a point to not buy things from people like that.  I mean, a typo here and there is one thing, but some of them type like 5 year olds and I don't want to give money to idiots!


 


Are there any companies that allow you a 12-24 hour window to complete work?

Total, utter and complete waste of time, effort,
The *CMT* so-called credential is nothing but a scam. THEY get rich, and you DON'T.
I think it's Texas. I'm glad I didnt complete the testing. The sound quality was bad.
I want to think that this Rose was defending one of her newer MTs that had been burned by a former employer for nonpayment so I find this interesting that they would turn out the be the same way.. Wow...
Happy New Year. May we all have happy home lives (sm)
and do whatever it takes to make our work lives work for us too. 
Right and told we should be happy we have jobs. Not too happy right now.

MDI Maryland HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY
THIS IS NOT MDI IN NY OR FL!!

www.mditrans.com.

I can't say enough nice things about this company; very flexible, you area a statutory employee. That means that they pay the employer portion of your SS. Great on time pay, tons of work. Do your lines and you are left alone! Expect to be responsible though. Pay for your phone; rent a Lanier or a C-phone if you don't have one; BayScribe platform. Anything that is a bit of an inconvenience is more than made up for. You will know to the minute how much you will make and how many lines you have typed. Check it out!

Any recent info on MedTrans Unlimited? newest archived info is 9 months old... m

Has anything changed in 9 months? Particular worries are the invoice/pay time; one post mentioned 2 to 3 week wait and another post stated 1 week. Info from the company states pay is sent out 10 days after the last day of the billing period, but we all know what is said and what is done isn't always the same. Another concern is the platform; some mentioned it was slow and cumbersome. They have 2 platforms from what I can gather.. Are they both slow? It seemed like certain specialties were done on certain platforms, or at least that is what I got out of the archives. I really hate to jump from the frying pan to the fire so any info would be VERY much appreciated.. the good, bad, and the ugly! TIA!!


Any Axolotl employees willing to share info., platform, ESL %, etc. All info greatly appreciated. sm

Along with the platform, ESL %, pay range, lpd required, split shift or 12-24 hour window available, I would be interested in knowing your personal experience with this company, what type of relationship you have with supervisors and other coworkers, etc.  Otherwise, the all the 411. 


Thanks!


Current info on Diskriter?? Past info was very mixed. Either MTs hated it or liked it, does anyone

love working there and why? Do you easily meet your incentive pay or as past people have said, the ESL are so bad that you never meet the line count. I need current and new information. Isnt there a company out there that has a handful of happy employees or does all of them have both the haters and lovers. It is so hard to sort out fact from fiction sometimes and all of us have different expectations. It kind of goes along with the one man's junk is another man's treasures theory, I suppose.


Any new info on Amphion? Archive search doesn't provide new info (sm)
Looking for a part-time position with decent pay and decent workflow. There's nothing new in the archives.
Need info on eMTS out of Florida. Any info would be appreciated!
nm
Any new updates on Focus for QA? Good info/bad info? sm msg
I checked the archives and read all the messages.  Have things changed for the better here?  Is there steady, reliable work?  Able to make any decent money?  Thanks!
happy here
Positive experience for me. Two years later, still happy, still busy, still meeting 300+ lines an hour. To each his own... guess it's jump on Diskriter is crap band wagon again day. On any given day, one company or another is being ripped a new one on these sites.
Probably one of the best. I'm happy there.

Happy with QT and FCM!!! nm

Happy there......
I am very, very happy at OSi. I left a company where I had been a IC for over 8 years and went with OSi as an employee. I have had no regrets. I think some people say QA is snooty because they expect a job to be done right and often times it isn't. We have access to all reports typed on our accounts and to tell you the truth, it's amazing how some of these MTs got hired.

I love the platform, pay is always on time and often incentives create huge paychecks. They are very professional and very flexible. No cons as far as I can see.
That's cause we are happy!!
Why do you want to bash anyway,let's talk about good things
I am happy too
There are some that still like Transcend.  i understand that others have valid complaints, but not everyone there experiences the same issues.  Some of us are really telling the truth when they say they are happy.
Happy for you.
I hope you like your new job. I have been contemplating applying with them myself but worried about their flexibility.
YAY!!! I am so happy for you. Out of (sm)
all the places I have worked, they really are the best!! For many,many reasons!!
Yep and happy about it!
Yes I make 1 cent less than what FOCUS would hire me on for at their top pay. In exchange I get to work with an amazing company who treats me with respect, knows who i am, who my children are, listens to what i have to say and so much more. It is worth the cent to work for a great company.
Happy to Mad?
so have you changed your attitude about MQ? this is exactly what MQ doesn't want to happen -- MTs being able to find out what is going on in different offices, wage-wise and otherwise.
ARE YOU HAPPY THERE?
Can you be hired on as SE?
Happy.....
Sweetheart, you have no business releasing your venom on me. You are one with the mental health issue. If you were indeed a "Happy OSI'er," you would not care what anyone else thinks or says about that company.

The fact that you can get enraged so easily when other people express opinions contrary to your own tells me that you are indeed in need of a little Zoloft, Xanax, or maybe just a good dose of reality. The rest of the world doesn't have to agree with you about anything. It does not make us dysfunctional, depressed, unhappy, or stupid. It just means we see things differently.

You're in for a rough ride in life if you are get so upset about others' opinions.


very happy
Yes Cbay is still around and going strong, more work than I can handle lately. They do hire US MTs. Everyone knocks them for sending work overseas but what company doesn't these days? I am very happy with them and pay is on time every 2 weeks! They pay my bills so I really wouldn't care if they sent the work to the moon!
Is anyone happy...
Please leave some info on this board if you are happy working for OSI.  There is a lot of negative, but it may be some sour grapes too.  I would like to hear some good input about the company.  Thanks.
With OSi for about 3 yrs. Very happy now with
It is great working with true medical transcription professionals.

OSi is good for a laugh, though!
I am very happy with OSi
You will read a lot of negativity, but this is something that you will have to decide on your own.  I am very happy there.  Sure, they aren't perfect, but no company is.  Let me know if you want more information.
I'm happy as can be -
.
Happy because . . .
I have 2 good accounts with steady work, love BayScribe, like my team leader, and good pay that is always on time. I do agree with the above poster who says she feels they may be overhiring on some accounts to keep them in TAT. However, I haven't seen overstaffing on my accounts (yet)!
I'm happy!
Don't work on MANTIS but this company is really, really growing by leaps and bounds - even made the Fortune 500 top growing companies in the US. Great people (really nice) and a refreshing change from the Big Guys. Pay is generally $1.10 regular and $2.25 special - really nice accounts too. Check 'em out!
