Webmedx radiology MTs?? How are they to work for and good pay?

TIA....


Keystrokes has the best radiology accounts IMO. I have plenty of work and radiology only. nm
I make a good living and rarely run out of work. When I do, it is for a few minutes at a time and usually because the rads have not started early enough. No other complaints!
Webmedx radiology anyone? How...
is the platform?  How is the pay?  What about work load?  Any info appreciated.  TIA
Webmedx Radiology
I posted before but got nada.  Can ANYONE?? please give me some information about Webmedx and their radiology accounts before I jump ship with my current MTSO and go with them?  I'd really appreciate it. 
Webmedx radiology MTs
Could you let me know if you have enough work and a ballpark figure on what I can expect to make per line/report with them?  Also, do you have to work strictly certain hours or do they go by lines?   Is it possible to make $600 weekly?  I hear a lot of good things about them and I am thinking of applying.  TIA
Webmedx radiology MTs, sm

I filled out the online application, took the test.  I received an email with several questions, and that they're interested in me.


Please email me with your experience as a rad MT with this company.  Is pay per line, report, etc.  What platforms they use.  By looking at their website, it looks like they don't offshore.  Please, any information would be helpful.


Thanks


Anybody have experience doing Radiology with Webmedx?

Curious about how radiology is with WebMedx.  Can anybody give info on pay, accounts, platform, etc?


Tx.


Know nothing about Webmedx and don't type radiology but (sm)
I can tell you for a fact that Transtech is a great company.  I'm very happy there. Going on 2 years.
Any info good or bad in regards to Webmedx radiology

MedQuist, Spheris or WebMedX for Radiology? sm

Please, anyone who works for or has worked for one (or more) of the these companies transcribing Radiology provide some input.  How are the accounts, the pay, schedule flexibility, benefits, etc?  You can email me, if you prefer.


Thanks  :->


Does Webmedx radiology still pays everyone at 7.25 per line regardless of experience?
x
Anyone currently working Webmedx/Transhealth radiology would care to share info on them - sm
Are all of the dictators ESL as in the test on the website?  If you sign on as a radiology MT are you still allowed a 12-hour window.  Has workload been fairly consistent? Any info would be greatly appreciated.  I took the test and would like some info before I am contacted.  TIA. 
Don't know about radiology work load, but we have been scratching in the dirt for work for a numb

of months now.  They hire, lose account, hire again before new accounts comes onboard, then have overhired, having to put new MT's on the current low workload. 


I know two people who work 3rd shift for Keystrokes on radiology and have a lot of work. Maybe you
on an account that has enough work. I hate to hear that someone doesn't have enough work or that they have a problem because I know that Keystrokes works to find the right account for every person. They do a lot for us but you have to talk to them until you find the right account or volume or hours for you.

I think that a lot of companies are that way but there is a lot of job-hopping in transcription. Everyone is looking for the perfect job but the grass is not always greener on the other side. There are a few MTSO's really are not good but for the most part, the others don't intentionally drive people away. That would not make sense. They need us to work as much as we need them to have the work there for us.


Want Radiology QA work

Looking for part-time radiology QA work.  Anybody know of any companies looking?  Thanks.


Should have said for Radiology work!

How is MDI-MD Radiology to work for?
Is there enough work or are they overhiring? TIA
still work in radiology
Just read your post and was wondering if still working for this company and if so what company is it. Thanks
Radiology work
Does anyone know a company who will let you work on radiology if you have not done radiology for several years?  I used to do it all the time, but it seems every ad says current experience.  Now I do acute care and am sure I could pick radiology up again.
used to? EVERY work day? On radiology?

Best company for radiology MTs to work.
I'm looking for a company that hires radiology MTs. Thanks.
I will only work by the report for radiology and only if sm
I am paid for links and extra for specials. I type 120-200 reports a day for Keystrokes and make more money by far than when I worked for another service and when I worked for a hospital. But make sure that you are paid for links and make sure that the person who hires you and/or trains you is familiar with the account and can tell you what the average report count is. Go with a service, such as Keystrokes, that is known for radiology. There are a few out there but make sure that they have enough radiology accounts to keep you busy. There are slow periods just like with any speciality and a good service knows when they are and how to schedule for them. Do your homework. Not sure if KS is hiring but they have the most rad accounts based on what I researched two years ago prior to going with them. Good luck!
Keystrokes - Not Enough Radiology Work
I too thought Keystrokes would be my salvation when I read all the great posts about it, and accepted an offer in September.  But my radiology accounts dried up, and even though I have been begging for work, I have not been offered anything steady or stable.  Yes, everyone there is as nice as can be, paychecks (such as they are) are on-time, but from the time I get up until I go to bed I am lucky if I have a half-dozen reports.  My first/primary account went voice before I even started it. I asked for a backup and they gave me clinic notes - I only do radiology, I have 13 years of radiology.  I asked for another backup and had one for less than a month before it went voice.  During that month there were more transcriptionists than available dial-in lines, so couldn't get in to work half the time.  Now I've been given an account that I'm only allowed to work on weekend afternoons.  I continue to ask them to find me an account.  I absolutely cannot believe I am begging for work and earning nothing.  I have a family counting on me, I can't go on like this.  I am absolutely devastated.  CONSIDER VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU GO TO KEYSTROKES.
Best companies for radiology (pay, work, bennies)?
Any input appreciated - need to leave the convention center...
Medware radiology MTs...what do you make and do you have enough work?
TIA
Lots of work on radiology accounts
And whew, are my hands tired....but I made 5th tier the first week and the top bonus tier this week,
I work for MedQuest, a radiology service provider--sm
based in GA.
What in your experience is the most efficient Word-based radiology platform to work on? nm

RE: What in your experience is the most efficient Word-based radiology platform to work on? nm
RadNet
I work on acute care accounts, so I can't speak for the radiology side. (SM)
The work does look like it's beginning to pick up though for acute care.
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.
Keystrokes for radiology. They are the biggest for radiology out of all of the companies out there.
I have been there 2 years and have been very happy. I make a lot more money than when I worked for Edix/Spheris.
Webmedx - low work ? Can you make up lines when work available (sm)
or do you have to schedule a make up time or just do without the lines? 
Keystrokes has a radiology division. They used to be radiology only but their sm
customers started referring other departments to them.

I know that they just got a bunch of new accounts!
For radiology, Keystrokes is the way to go. They seem to have the most radiology accounts. sm
I have been very, very busy since starting with them 19 months ago. No complaints at all other than one or two of the radiologists who speak at the speed of light and expect us to be able to transcribe what sounds to be a mouse on a treadmill!
This is very interesting. I work in QA for Webmedx. There is NO WORK
Why would they be testing for additional editors when there isn't enough work for those of us who work there now!

I've been smelling something fishy here for a long time now, this just confirms that something is going on that they are not being honest about.
I DON'T work for WebMedX. My cpl
is not part of an incentive plan, 10 cpl is my normal pay, 12 cpl for weekends.
Anyone work for Webmedx?
I would like some recent input on this company.  Thanks.
I also work for Webmedx sm
and the platform is slow. I am tired of them telling me it is my ISP. I don't believe that. My lines are falling as well. Don't know what to tell you, but I am in the very same boat you are. Good luck. By the way I have been at Webmedx nearly 4 years.
I work at Webmedx. nm

For those that work for Webmedx how did the
computer ship?   I am supposed to start training next week and don't have the computer yet.   Just wondering if it ships via FedEx, UPS, or some other method.   I'll call Monday to double check on it. 
No Work At Webmedx!
Don't waste your time.
I work at Webmedx (sm)
I work at Webmedx and really like it. The platform is very easy to use. When you are first hired you get a week of training to get used to the platform, account specifics, etc., before you are placed on production pay. The company provides many tools to help you be productive (normals stored in the platform, productivity classes, the ability to search past reports, dictation samples provided, etc.). I was hired right out of school so I know that I started on the bottom of the pay scale. They do offer an incentive program based on total lines per week and pay shift differentials for evenings and weekends. You get a flexible 12-hour window, and the benefits are pretty good compared to what other MTSOs are offering. They are really looking for MTs right now so you would not be sitting around and waiting for them to call you back like the other poster mentioned. I was called back right away after my interview. If you have any other specific questions, feel free to e-mail me.

WebMedX- NO WORK?
Anyone else hired for WebMedx recently only to find absolutely NO WORK available?
WebMedx, for those who run out of work . . .
What shifts are you running out of work on?  What work types are running out? 
No work at Webmedx
Do not waste your time applying, there is no work. They overhire. I have to struggle to get my hours in.....Too bad cause they are all so darn nice.
Currently, no work at Webmedx. FYI
;(
I work at Webmedx
There was a short period of time where work was very low while a new account was getting ready to go live and work was being scattered to new MTs (the norm), but now that we have gone live, I never run out of work. I have a primary, secondary, and tertiary account (rarely ever see my tertiary).

I am very happy here and cannot say anything bad about this company. When work is low during the day hours, you just have to accommodate and work a couple hours in the evening or maybe a few hours on your day off at the end of the week, which doesn't bother me. At least the work is there. :)

Webmedx has ONLY domestic MTs. There is no offshoring.
I work at Webmedx too...
I run out of work on a daily basis. I have 4 accounts and cycle through them all day long if there is work. I so am tired of the double standard of my STM telling me that I need to work a set 8-hour schedule when there is work but who expects me to flex within my 12-hour window when work is low. I don't want to be chained to my computer for 60 hours a week waiting for work... Maybe that's fine with some, but I have a life outside of work and can't just work whenever there happens to be some jobs in my pool. 
Work at WebmedX is very low. Many sm
people CANNOT get their lines in even with flexing. There are a couple of accounts that are steady, which the OP must fortunately have, but most are not. Just thought you should know. The Web definitely overhires--has done so consistently in the 3 years I have been there, but work volumes for the last 6 months or so are the worst I've seen yet.
no work at Webmedx
I agree with you Flabbergasted and I also think that our STM's shouldnt troll this board if they do not wish to hear how we feel.  The old saying that eavesdroppers always hear ill of themselves really applies here.  I have had no work for over a week now.  I received a chipper little email telling me that if I was part time or if I HAD A HUSBAND WHO SUPPORTED ME (WTF???) to please flex for the rest of the week!  What is this? the 1950's at the Cleaver residence???  Then just for fun our manager goes on an 11 day vacation and we still have NO INFORMATION!  Great.  Wonderful.  And please, please all of you happy little folks out there that are praying us back into higher work volumes, please no need to respond.  I know you believe that we can all just click our heels and wish ourselves into a happier work environment.  I prefer to actually know what is going on at the facility, even if it means not being employed anymore.  The not knowing and waiting around for someone to get back from their vacation to tell us something, is the worst.
