All I can find in archives about Mediscript is sm

"Bad news!" and nothing else.  That doesn't tell me or anyone else anything useful.  I don't care if someone says "bad news!" but could they please back it up with some real info?  Preferably first-hand experiences would be nice, thank you.


Does anyone out there have any info about Mediscript?  I know they pay by the gross line, but how much?  Do they offer direct deposit?  When are the pay days?  How's the platform?  Any info appreciated.  I'd like to gather some information first before I take any tests or talk to them so I can determine if it's worth going through all that for a job that might not be a fit for me.


Read in the archives that Mediscript (FL) is "bad news" Why?

i was with MQ til earlier this year,
and i totally understand. I am using the Bayscribe platform, and yes there are markers you can go-to the same way. Was also able to transfer my MQ Expanders to the Bayscribe platform so i didn't lose years of input. This platform isn't quite as fine as DQS on many points, but it all balances out and i am happier than ever -- i wish you the same!!
earlier this year I tried them...
my computer crashed after weeks of their being in there setting me up. Lost everything, had to reload.

Think about it - virtually everywhere else sets up in hours. Is it worth it?

approach with extreme caution.
I worked for them earlier this year (sm)
They are very nice people and paid on time DD. Platform was easy to learn as well. I had to quit because my daughter was very ill, but had that not happened I would still be with them. Good luck.
wow, good thing i turned them down earlier this year, thanks

Time change is earlier this year so computer
probably will not ask you to change now, may ask you  at the usual time. 
I left the field for good earlier this year
after 15 years. I'm now an ACSM certified personal trainer at Bally Total Fitness, and also have a private client. Thanks to everything I learned as a transcriptionist, I passed the very tough certification exam on the first try.

I'm still networked with my first MD client, and we refer people to each other.
My body also thanks me for not spending hours at the computer anymore. I enjoyed the work, but don't miss it at this point.

There are many ways to use what we know. If your instinct is telling you to do something else, I encourage anyone to at least explore your options.



I left that company earlier

They have no communication. I arranged to have a week off as I was moving. This was totally arranged and okayed. Then they took me off the books because they said I did not report to work and had abandoned my job. I explained the situation, and they had to sign me back on with direct deposit, etc. Evidently somebody did not communicate with somebody else in the company. I quit.


I am in a wonderful job now and am glad I went elsewhere. 


AccuStat...any new info? I've read the archives that are a year old...

If it is the company in Wisconsin, you will have trouble with pay.
They pay late frequently; they short paychecks; they don't know how to use direct deposit and will "wire" your pay and you have to pay a wire transfer fee at your bank; look in the archives. They are also EXTREMELY unorganized and unprofessional. Nothing good here.
Go to archives, company pg 87. Pages work

Because in the archives the company rep for TransTech posted about

I saw a post in the archives signed by TransTech Medical Solutions about Heartland buying or selling a company. I just wondered if TransTech was connected to Heartland.


Read through the archives, horrible company.
The dictators are some of the worst ESLs, sound quality is horrific, the reports are so bad I had to basically retype them, flaky QA, management problems, etc.  
I can't seem to access the archives. Is this a good company?
D&L talks a good game.  Am frustrated running out of work with Medquist yet again!  Does anyone know if D&L is a decent company to work for? 
Midwest Transcription? Anyone know of this company. Cannot access archives. TIA. nm

It is an Indian run company. If you'll check the archives they
have been asked about several times the last month or so.  There has been nothing good said about them. 
Worst company to work for. Read the archives and you'll
be hard pressed to find anything good about this company. 
Indian company. If you'll search the archives lots of info
on them.
Archives doesn't mean it is old info necessarily. If you'll go to the main company page, typ
JLG in the search box, make sure the MTStars circle is checked and click on search you'll find lots of current information.  This is considered archived information but there are posts are recently as last week there.  
AAMT Company of the Year
Considering that Heartland was so honored (?) a few years ago, I wouldn't put my clicking finger to my mouse to go to the AAMT web site to find out who it is this year.
I got out of that junk company a year ago - SM
Best move I made in my career! I was with Cymed before they became SPI. I left last February and went to Keystrokes. I'm more than glad that I did! They were still calling me almost every week up until August asking me why I wasn't working! What a bunch of idiots!
My company sent us E-CARDS this year. sm
They were too cheap to spring for a an actual paper holiday card with postage.
A freaking email card. Yeah, no gift card attached to that baby, either.

Mediscript

Any info on Mediscript, unsure where they are located, just took a test from them.  Checked archives and found very little, any info would be appreciated. 


mediscript
do not know which Mediscript, just took their test, and that is what it said at the top of the test.  Anything about the company, is it a honest reputable company that treats his MTs good?  I guess if you do not know which Mediscript, you will not be able to answer my question.  Can you tell me this, it is a national?
Mediscript
I checked the archives and did not find any information that was helpful, what do you know or tell me how to find out.
Mediscript
They offered me 9 cents per gross line. They do not offer direct deposit, you invoice on the 15 and 30, unsure when you get paid, I think 20 days after you invoice. The platform is WP 7 or higher. I took their test, passed it, was hired, but was unable to get any help with start up. They sent me a packet of instructions and said to go for it. I am not computer savy, so this did not work for me, it might for you though. Gross line pay is the best in the business, I think it would be worth giving it a try. Just my opinion.
Mediscript

does anyone have any info on this company?  The usual, paying on time, staff, enough work, etc.  Thanks


Mediscript
they are located in IL.

Can anyone give me info on Mediscript out of Naples, FLA?


We have insurance through my husband's company and this year

our premium was only raised $3.00 and our benefits were improved. 


If you have pre-existing conditions you don't have lots of options, but there are lots of other options available otherwise.

Anyone with info on Mediscript TX?
They currently have an ad posted, but haven't heard of them.
Mediscript in Wisconsin, anyone have exp w/this co?
Mind you, not talking about Medscribe, Medscript or anything similar.  Need info on MEDISCRIPT in Wisconsin.....offered a job and can't find any info on them.  Please help me in my research, thank you!
Mediscript employee
I work for Mediscript and could not be happier. They leave you alone as long as you do what you commit to them for. The only downfall is a C-phone, but for the pay I can over look that!!!!


Need info on Mediscript. NM

Can anyone give me some information about Mediscript out of Naples, FLA? 


How is it that in less than 1 year Medware goes from the best company to work for to the worst?

Let's hope AAMT does a better job of picking the next company of the year!


Still not great PTO for first year. I get 12 days at current company. NM

Any negatives to report on Mediscript out of FL?
:-)
My company only acknowledges 6 holidays per year, and Easter isn't one of them, so no extra pay.

Are there any former Mediscript (Austell, GA) employees that know what happened with them?sm

I worked with them for about 10 years.  I drove by the other day, and they were obviously out of business.  Just curious as to the circumstances.  If anyone could e-mail me, I would really appreciate it. 


Thanks


I worked for them a year or so ago. Good company. Owners a little quirky at times, but set sm..
set accounts so can build speed with repetition.  Pay on time and treat you very decent. 
Is it safe to ask a company after one year for a raise? Do companies give raises?
Curious
I didn't ask about Medscribe, I asked about Mediscript in FLA. No direct deposit w/this co.

my first year I made 16k. Doubled that second year. Going on year 6 with (sm)

two local accounts I earned 23,000.00 and a national I earned 35,400... 58,400 this year.  Don't ask me how many hours, though, I really have no idea.  I'm pretty motivated.  (When people ask me how many hours I work a week I reply as many as it takes  I'd say 40-50/week.  I am also a fitness instructer and personal trainer, about 5 hours a week or so.  Decent money (sometimes under the table!) but mostly I just do it for fun and to be social and wear cute work-out clothes. 


that first year was a rough one... but I consider it part of my education. 


 


I'm pretty motivated.
