Well for starters . . .

In Reply to: I don't - where?
How about the email that the CEO or whatever he is sent out company-wide to cover their tracks when they got caught red-handed outsourcing while they were denying it?
And how about the way people remember the email introducing the new QA manager, who just 2 years ago was described in a company wide email as someone who is learning to do MT well enough to work at home unsupervised.
I got those mass emails when I was an employee and so did everyone else. They also got posted to this board by former employees. Can't argue with the information when it comes straight from the horse's mouth!

You have to be in Michigan for starters. sm
Preferably the west side of the state as you have one day of training at their home office in Cadillac. They provide everything you need including the computer. They use Vianeta and their tech support people are great. They give you a mentor to start with and expect you to be off corrections within a week or two. And they always answer emails and/or phone calls.
Hope this helps.
HITECH ACT for starters
Have you been keeping up on the laws that are going to start in Feb 2010?
Granted, the excerpt below that I took from the MT Herald speaks of transcriptionists off-shore, it is applicable to transcriptionists ON-SHORE as well.
As you might be knowing that HITECH act has given more teeth to HIPAA with heavy penalties and imprisonment for “willful neglect” and “non-compliance.” The penalties range from $100 to $1,500,000 per calendar year. Apart from these civil penalties, criminal punishments could include imprisonment up to 10 years. All these come into effect from February 18, 2010. Furthermore, HIPAA regulations insist that compliance means “a not do once and forget issue” but an “ongoing dynamic process.” In case of a breach at your end even if you are a medical Transcriptionist offshore, the octopussy hands of HIPAA could narrow down on you through the onshore covered entity/business associate and depending on the intensity and repercussion of the breach and depending on the treaties existing between the US and the offshored country (say like the India-US Extradition Treaty).
Doesn't sound very American for starters. I think you know where this is headed. nm
