In Reply to: Is Axolotl hiring? Can you give me the pos and neg of this co? Email if you want. Thanks - cobbie

company.  They provide all equipment/software.   Pay for downtime.  QA pretty strict, just maintain minimum score of 98.5, 1200 lpd/12,000 per pay period.  DD, on-time.  Insurance starts the first day of the month after you start, very reasonable premiums.

P.S. Sounds as though they are hiring for large teaching hospitals from the ad. Any info would be
appreciated.
If it is a large account
your email may be one of nearly 20+ she gets per day. When you are a lead you are getting many calls and emails daily. Address the issue with the head and go over his/her head if things don't improve.
I know they just got a large hospital account near me.

They have recently gotten a very large account. Probably

Did you get the note from Debby? New large account (sm)
coming on in stages.
Transtech losing large account
Anyone know where it's going?

Transtech losing large account

I'm scared to say. But big.


Transtech losing large account

No, it's a chain of clinics.


Transtech losing large account
I think if you haven't been notified already, then it's not your account. You're safe.
Accounts going offshore or VR. They are losing large account SM
because the hospital(s) is going paperless.

I assume they want us all on VR, so they can pay us 2 cpl or whatever they are paying the offshore MTs.

You can ask to be put on a higher level account, however, there is no M-F on the higher level accounts. They want you to work evenings and one weekend day.
I worked on a large teaching hospital account and was
frequently out of work.  KS didn't have the entire account.  I don't know if they had in-house MTs or they used more than one company.  You should have a backup account too, though there may be some  lag time between getting you a backup as they figure out where they can plug you in.   They supposedly are getting several new accounts so surely they should be plenty of work. 
Ummm...No, large account I'm on just has good dictators....
It's on EditScript, and I was system receiving alerts of higher priority jobs coming through and I accepted them. The dictators were by and large very good and many of the reports required minimal editing.

It's luck of the draw when it comes to being placed on an account. I am very grateful to have been hired for the account I'm on.

Sorry you apparently aren't as happy. I hope your day gets better.


Great company, great boss, great account!!!nm

is that the DQS account they are hiring for ?
40 hours a week at only 8 cpl
Yes they are hiring and great to work for

Yes, they are hiring because they just got a HUGE account.
Ops and cardiology right now but all kinds of work. I am loving every second of it! :)
The ML account is not "coming on" it is here and right NOT hiring PT sm
because there is way way too much work to be done. Glad you got on when you did at PT. I have had no fewer than 4 friends apply for PT in the last month only to be told no PT positions.
I am only assuming that is the account they are hiring for. (sm)
I know I saw a memo stating there was a large response of those of us wanting to work that account. Maybe they just filled the shifts we were willing to work and are hiring for other shifts. I really don't know. Just trying to be optimistic.


QT Medial is hiring and is GREAT to work for! Try them, you will not be sorry! nm

TSSC is hiring now, Great company. NM

Saw ad for Transcend and they actually named the new account they were hiring for (sm)
Isn't that a little strange?  I know we don't post account specifics and I have never seen a company do so before.  They mentioned the hospital name, town and state. 
I think they are paying per report on the account they are hiring for now, They
usually pay 1.20 to 1.30 per report plus they also have a productivity incentive where you can earn about an additional ten cenrs per report. Great people. I would definitely give them a try.
I know they have been hiring on that account awhile so there is probably work. But,
I did refer a friend and they put her on that program to which she did not stay long and was very unhappy with her line count. She said it was a third of what she normally made so she quit. Honestly, I have never worked on that platform so I am not sure if she had a valid complaint or not or what else she was comparing it to. I say if the work is there, which I would think if they are offering a bonus, I would try it out and see if it works for you. It sounds like with your experience you would know the difference in line counts.
Transhealth is hiring but you must have 5 years of QA experience. They are great to
work for.
Do you know what account she has? Hiring? That's practically a hop, skip and a jump away

First Choice Medical is a great company to work for, and I think they are hiring too.
I have been there for over 4 years now. They use WP51 too if you want. Good luck to you.
I work on the radiology account they are hiring for at Southern Transcription Services
and always have work. I have only run out a work a handful of times. It is a very busy account. It is a very good company to work for.
Yes that was the account I was on and it was GREAT account...sm
So if they are going to mess several things up: 1) Pay for their employees, 2) Losing a big account like that one, 3) Hiring supervisors that just wanted to chit-chat and lose production then I would think that is NOT a company to go for. But I had to learn it the hard way - having my payday be weeks late during Christmastime. But I gave them the benefit of the doubt for 2 more paydays - they were late also....
I'm on a great account that is always busy - sm
It is a hospital in Maryland and has very easy docs. If you get hired, maybe they will put you on that hospital account. Super duper easy. Very few ESLs. I am making my line count is 5-6 hours and I have been on the account for 10 months.
The account isn't so great, but DocQscribe is the best. nm

Sounds like you have a great VR account

but very demanding management.  Just like you wouldn't work for companies where the VR is really bad, I wouldn't work for a company that demanded I not erase and retype.  They're already cutting my pay...I'm not going to stand for them telling me I need to lose more money by doing it their way only, especially if the end product is the exact same. 


I would go with the great money account personally. SM
Would mind sharing the name of the company or are you IC?
working that account and it is great! So far I have no complaints. nm
x
Hmmm...wonder what account you are on..my QA is great..what was wrong, which report,what I put and
what it should have been.  I've no complaints at all about this company.  The account is picky but that is not Amphion, that is their client.  Besides, that what  I get paid to do.  To each their own I guess.
Sorry to hear that because that was a good account with great normals. Hope
you find a new home where you will be appreciated and with good line counts!
I miss YOG also! Good company, great line rate, and awesome account.
x
I find the sound quality not so great on some accounts. I guess it depends on what account you get
on. 
QT gets my vote! I love it! Gross line pay, on time, 1 account, steady work! Great place!!!! nm

Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM
,
I can't tell you, sorry, but it is a LARGE one.

Maybe MQ is over hiring now in preparation for something. Must be some reason they keep hiring when
some people have not work.
large comp

I agree.


They have taken on several new large accounts over
the past several months.
been with 2 large nationals; will never do that again.
Much better with the smaller companies.
I have 22 employees, which is not large, but had to do the same. sm
Our state unemployment division did an audit on me and determined that the ICs are actually employees. I had to pay unemployment on everyone who works for me or who did work for me back 5 years to present and make them all employees. I had to pay fines and penalties too.

The IRS has their list of 20 checklist items but the states can have a few of their own and they have the right to enforce them.

One from our state (Missouri) states that if you perform the same type of duties as employees at the company, even if you fit the 20 items from the IRS, you are an employee.

I appealed the decision and lost. It cost me $5000 for a lawyer but still have to pay the $218,000 to them (the total with the fees, penalties, interest and payments that should have been made). It is going to force me to close our doors.


these were supposedly large sm
companies that have been around awhile.  I am hearing a lot of MTs going through the same thing.  Its getting ridiculous!
It is hard to get a large
group of doctors at a hospital to ALL do VR and their own editing. Smaller clinics are more likely to completely do away with MTs, as they are more inclined to do their own editing; plus doctors in clinics do not go into as much detail as hospital dictators. Clinics usually stick to a fairly standard normal template, whereas doctors in hospitals dictate all kinds of ways...That is what I have seen..
I have found that large places
like hospitals, banks, insurance companies offer the best benefit packages to part-timers. In fact I once worked 10 hours a week at a bank just for the benefits package. PT MT at home with benefits, however, I don't think you will find. It's hard enough finding FT with benefits and the premium isn't $800 a month.
Yes, 2 large hospitals. Both accounts out. nm

When I worked for a large national, they
had a gal from New York using a steno machine.  She consistently turned out over 20,000 lines every 2 weeks/pay period.  So if you know the steno machine, you can make megabucks in transcription.  She always won awards at this biggest national.
