Yea, at least u got paid. Everyone who worked for TSI is STILL waiting to be paid
I don't understand how Jayne cannot pay us. We have christmas coming up. I bet her family has a fantastic Christmas because she is using OUR money to pay for it. I worked so hard for her and I know the other girls did too. How insulting that she will not return phone calls or emails or PAY us. How does she look at herself in the mirror knowing that the MTs who did all the work FOR her did not get paid. She even sent me an email saying I give you my word HAHAHA her word is nothing, obviously. Well, I will call the attorney for the THIRD time and see what is going on.
To the poster, at least you got paid even if it was late. I sincerely hope you get your last check.
FYI, that's normal, it means doing business as, check out SBA site...SM

Thanks for the heads up. I was hired by a national 1 month ago. I am still waiting to finish
training so I can start working. These companies make you wait 2 months? That is incredible! Grrrrrrrrrr.
That is an outright untruth! We are paid 3 cents less than our normal quote, at least I am.
I can't believe some of you want these great MTs to think you are not getting paid well for VR work. That just is totally not true. I have 2 clients on VR and the pay is the same if not 3 cpl less than standard transcription and with the VR the line counts do double and sometimes triple. So, to all MTs out here - DO NOT BELIEVE THE MTSO IS NOT PAID WELL OR PAID HALF FOR THEIR VR ACCOUNTS! That just is not true.
I have line rates from many hospitals using VR and the rates are fairly high and comparable to standard transcription.
still waiting on my check from TTS
@#$%&
Anyone waiting for UPS to deliver their pay check?!
My check from FutureNet was sent UPS overnight delivery on Thursday and it still hasn't arrived!!! Nothing like not getting paid at Christmas time!
Is anyone waiting for a check from StatIQ?
Checks get mailed out on the 1st of the month and it is now the 15th and I still have not recieved mine. Today is the 15th and my second check of the month will be mailed out today, but yet I haven't even recieved my first check for July.
I have emailed them twice over the past few days and have yet to get a response. Just curious if anyone else is having any problems with getting paid.
LARTECH, waiting 2 months for a check?
Is anybody out there getting paid at least 60 days out from Lartech? Waiting 2 months for a check? Is this crazy? I am having a hard time staying motivated to work because I know I will not see any money for months.
Anyone else new with MedWare still waiting on your first check? DD doesn't start until
s
Your fine as long as your employee, but if your IC, dont hold your breath waiting for a check.
Only employees get direct deposit. If you opt to be an IC, the checks may or may not get out and you may or not get them on a certain day.
IC's are paid twice a month, sm
but you are paid the 15th for the prior month's work. Employee status is different and have a different pay schedule.
I know, I worked there. The first month is difficult, but after that the checks flow routinely. You do get used to it though.
Getting paid once a month???!!! Not for me. nm
s
Only paid once a month
Is it normal for a service to only pay once a month? Also, to take lines away from line count for errors and have to give a 30-day notice? I am thinking of accepting a job that does this, but am feeling a bit uneasy as they only pay 3.5 for VR, which is 80% of the job. Thanks for any input.
Only paid once a month
What worries me is who is going to say what an error is? I've worked with QA people before and was totally frustrated with inconsistent feedback.
I am paid once a month.
But I am also paid 12 cpl so the check is worth the wait. The reason I would not take this position is the 3.5 cpl. Even with VR, you are going to have a hard time earning a decent wage, especially if they deduct from that for errors.
Only paid once a month
Thanks you guys for all your posts. I am not taking the job and am back to square one with looking for a new one.
Is there such a thing as good pay and treatment for good work in MT anymore? 
I have been looking now for over 6 months. Seems like every time I find what seems to be a good job, all of a sudden the small print kills it. I sure am glad I can come here to find out about them first or would have been burned long ago. The place I work at now just put in VR and will have EHR soon. Makes me nervous even though they are assuring us we will not lose our jobs. What do you think?
I only get paid twice a month
what plan are you on to get paid every other week?
And only paid once a month...
Yet another company I'm asking to go fly a kite!
No, you dont get paid once a month. - sm
You get paid twice a month, but rather than invoicing on the first and getting paid on the 15th, every basicall 14 days, you will wait 28 days. So you will wait an exgtra cople of weeks for the first check, but after that you do get paid twice a month.
Bimonthly pay....as in you get paid only every other month???????
I could never manage with only getting paid every other month. That's a long stretch between paydays!!!
I didn't HEAR of it being over $500 each month..I see it taken out of my check every 2 weeks..(sm
$254 each pay period. I honestly hope you're right that the final paperwork was signed last Friday because I had decided to have it discontinued after the March 15 paycheck and either look on my own or go without coverage for a while until I find a more reasonable plan. The insurance itself is great but too high. I can't imagine how you are paying only $184 per month and I have been paying over $500 since December 2006 for single coverage!
About 1-1/2 years ago, I paid almost $600/month for COBRA. sm
That was for medical, dental, vision, one person. Hope this helps. It is tremendously expensive, but it does get you by until you get something else.
Good luck! 
If things are still the same, the owner is great, but you wait a month for your first check ... sm
and the pay is rather low ..... it was by character count ... amounted to about 7-1/2 cpl.... but the work was easy, clinic stuff. I have no idea what she pays for VR, though. She is a professional and good to work for.
Good luck!
Paid twice a month, with invoices submitted on the 16th and the 1st. sm
Until now, there was no set pay date, but an email today stated that the funds wold be released within 5 business days, and they are working on having it done within 3 days.
Regardless, it is still quicker than any place else I have been paid. At another place, the pay period ends the same, but I am not paid until the 8th and the 23rd, and then it is by check, not direct deposit (Cardioscribes pays via direct deposit.)
At my full time job, the pay period ends on Sunday at midinght, and I am not paid until a week later on Monday.
So, even though it is a bit different not having a specific date to call payday, I still am paid quickly and have no issues with it, but then again, I only work part-time. The people there are great, and it is cardiology clinic work, so it is a nice change of pace for me compared to acute care.
Hope this helps.
Every company I have worked for (5 total) has paid twice a month. sm
Every two weeks would be too hard to manage. I get paid on the 10th and 25th, so I pay all my bills on the 12th and 27th, which works out perfectly for me.
Called the labor board - LM overnited check after fooling around for a month or 2...nm

This is not true. I have been there a month and get a good line rate and paid for spaces. ??? nm

If go with them, check yourself if getting paid for

not paid and got terminated for asking for my check
i got terminated for requesting them for the work i did. i had full proof of all the work i had done including a spreadsheet for keeping track of th eline count. this is a scam and i am totally discouraged.
Thanks for your kindness. I did check, and it just says we are paid on sm
the 15th and the last of the month, and that if they fall on a Saturday or Sunday, we are paid on the following Monday. However, the 31st was on a Sunday, and we were paid on the Friday before, plus with the following Monday being a holiday, I was just hoping … hopes and dreams, one of the few things that are still free 
If and when you find one, be sure do double check yourself that you are being paid for what they
:P
I didn't get paid, but work as been so low, my check won't be much anyway. :( nm
I hope you're right. I've been waiting 4 wks for an ID - still waiting! nm

People at TT have been paid! People who haven't well, maybe you did not make count and your check
after insurance deduction. Maybe your bank is holding it. Maybe anything! But we GOT PAID. This is NO LIE. And I am sick of this board. Nothing but disgruntled exemployees arguing with employees who like their job. Ugggg. I am working. BTW: THERE IS WORK (clears throat) remember that? Work?
I was told several new accts are coming on this month and also next month, so
I'm not worrying.
Pay period goes from 1st of the month to the 15th, then 16th to the end of the month. sm
So, I guess you could maybe get by with less than 1000 a day, although the incentive tier would make it worth your while to do a bit more. I am using ExText, and yes, I find it easy to use, but then I used it for a year with another company. I think their other platform is Mongoose, and I know nothing about that, so really cannot say.
Yes, they are hiring now. In fact, there is a $500 sign-on bonus. I think it is all just acute care. I'm sure they would love to have someone with your experience. Rhonda Durham is the recruiter. I am sure she could answer any of your questions. I am happy to help too, if I can, but I am relatively new. The account I am working on is mostly psych, it seems, and I am loving it.
Another nice thing, their benefits start after 60 days, not 90 like most.
Good luck to you.
TransHealth starts 1st day of month after month SM
you start, BC/BS, good rate on single, don't know about family premium.
Last month was slow on my account..but this month (sm)
we've been swamped...
The new insurance is very reasonable. I pay $200/month and they pay $200/month. sm
Unfortunately, I have had to use it a lot since it changed and I am very happy. They have covered everything.
The insurance is actually $80 cheaper per month than I paid at the local hospital, which is a large employer.
Not normal
Is this a small MTSO out of Florida?
That is normal
It can take up to a couple of weeks for them to get your IDs. It only took me a week to get mine when I started a few months ago, but I know of someone else who had to wait about 3 weeks.
normal?
I think that is below the average for lines. I don't work for KS anymore. However, I have been an MT for 9 years and I type 2000 lines per day. I could do 3000 but I don't want to work more than 6 or 7 hours a day.
Most def --NOT normal, especially at

Normal pay for QA?
Plus you have to redo almost everything you get or fill in 50 blanks. Ain't worth it.
It is normal
If a company is going to pay you for services they need either your ss or ein so that they can issue you a 1099 at the end of the year.All IC aka sub contractors no that they have to give a company a tax number what do you think you don't have to pay the taxes on the money you earn? They are going to report what they paid you to the IRS with so that they can write-off the expense they paid you.It is all very normal. probably wanted drivers lic for ID to verify with the IRS the correct ss number. if they took a bad number and did not check it out then they might not be able to write-off the expense.
is this normal
I am in trainingwith a company, learing this account and they audited my reports and count it against me, because I do not meet their standards, but I am in still in training just got hired. Is this normal to be audited when you are still training? aren't you suppose to be audited once you get out of training?
Don't know if it's normal but...
... I was fired from a company during training because my reports were audited and only 91% and the company requires 98%.
