In Reply to: I work VR work and there is NOT enough. I am typing 9/10ths of my day. sm - I beg to differ

A little slow but adjusting my schedule. This too shall pass and before we know it we will be swamped.

KS has lots of accounts, several different

platforms.  They do have several accounts where you need a C-phone and ULD, but they also have other accounts where you don't need ULD.   They will loan you a C-phone if you need it, but you are on your own for ULD is required. 


It can take 2 weeks to get started and I would definitely not quit a job until you are ready to start.  Depending on the account though you could be working within a couple of days. 


They also have lots of VR accounts

They have lots of accounts. Ask for a backup. nm
s
lots of work, on all 3 of my accounts, always will.
nm
Probably because it is DocQScribe and accounts have lots of ESL.
I used to work there and those were the reasons for not having a good line count for me...
St. Louis has LOTS of work on most all accounts
x
Always ran out of work despite giving you lots of accounts. nm
nm
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,
Lots of new accounts. I called the office to ask a question and sm
found out that there are more than a dozen new accounts starting in the next couple of weeks. I am happy at KS but anything is better than MQ. I left there a year ago and am very glad that I did.
All I meant was that I couldn't address the RAD portion of the Wbx accounts. nm
.
To clarify, by "those jobs" I meant it said some MDI accounts would be going to VR. nm

Lots of promises, no follow through. Lots and lots of internal sm
problems. She is recruiting heavy right now as she has a CHANCE at getting a big account back. Even if they get it back, they'll blow it again from poor management.
Lots of work here too. I cannot figure out which accounts have no work.
I'm on the Escription platform
I totally agree, your story is mine and lots, and lots of others, please
believe me when I say Keystrokes has been honest like we used to have in this profession. If I can help one Transcriptionist avoid what we have, this will all be worth it. I worked parttime for Keystrokes at the time I was fulltime with ____ and quit, 2 years later I begged them to take me back after once again my paycheck was cut in half, and they did with open arms. I don't mean to run down anyone but a lot of these transcription companies are getting obscenely rich while paying below minimum wage to transcriptionists, playing with dictation and after working for a couple of them you know who is honest and who is not. Sorry I came down so hard but the reality is there are single mothers out there that I bet cry themselves to sleep not able to give their children a decent life because it is easier to steal from us. When companies have millions of dollar to pay for other transcription companies, open transcription schools in other countries, ect., ect., you know there is a lot of money in it. That is all I am saying.
I don't think we work at the same place, but I have been working lots and lots of hours.
Very thankful to have a decent job.
Lots and lots of recent stuff in archives.
 
I meant nothing wrong. I meant a friend who can vouch for
xxx
Lots and Lots of info about them in the archives. nm
 
Lots and lots of work. You will love
XY?Z
Lots and lots of posts in the archives.
 
Lots and lots of info in archives and several

It was not meant to be nasty. I meant that you should take every job seriously. Just because someo
is their focus does not mean that patients should suffer. 96% accuracy could mean the difference to someone who is on the receiving end of that report. I am NOT QA or management but I am an experienced Transcriptionist who believes that the reports we transcribe need to be accurate for the patient's sake.
Lots lots, cuz I prefer
the OP/PR notes over any report......
That is not what I meant at all! Meant broaden to

Broaden to think leave to other profession if that is what is wanted, dont limit yourself to thinking only can leave to another MTSO.  Geeesh.


Are they losing accounts. Do most of their accounts stay for long period of time. I have
heard pros and cons about the quality of their work.  I guess it is much cheaper than other companies can offer.
Because the girls that monitor the accounts in the office were told the accounts either go on DQS or
move on. All accounts to be with MQ must be on DQS and no more different platforms. ONE ONLY DQS. They can send more work overseas then.
MDI-FL but not all accounts. Only the internet-based ones. C-phone accounts are fine.

So, yes, let me clarify before everyone gets in an uproar.. There is work IF you want to use a C-phone. IF you signed up for an account that is internet-based, you will be disappointed. Not enough work to go around. Just my personal preference.. I have no desire to do a dial-up C-phone account using my long distance.


Some do and have good accounts and fully loaded ESL accounts
Take a look at what is happening in India. For the first time, workers there have money to get themselves into debt by buying high priced items (cars for example). They now protest lower castes being allowed into universities at almost double the previous allowance. Wait until they are highly in debt, begin to feel entitled to a wage equal to that paid inthe US and then, try to form unions, get tossed out into the street and sit back with some Ben and Jerry ice cream and watch the economy collapse and all that dictation come back across the ocean. Timing is everything.
Find out which accounts they are hiring for. They have some ESL accounts that are extremely
difficult to do.  I dont know how many accounts they have altogether but as I say, a few are very difficult and I actually dont have a problem with ESLs but these accounts are almost totally ESL.  I dont do them anymore.
Well it sounds like no work happens a lot at DSG. How are the accounts as far as decent accounts
and their QA. 
Call them. I have lots of work, had lots of work
during the holidays too.   I don't know who routes the work, but one of the office people is on vacation this week.   I occasionally have to call to get work depending on what hours I'm working, but I have never not gotten work when I've asked for it.  
Different accounts have different platforms. Most accounts require sm
high speed but I am not sure if satellite is OK.

I don't think that they're hiring right now. I spoke with my lead on Thursday, who said they are focusing on making sure everyone has enough work and moving PTers to FT, eventually moving towards FT only with only weekends as PT. Not 100% sure when that is though.
Hmm..well it goes to show how different it can be between accounts. My "high" ESL accounts s
at WMX are pretty easy in my opinion as well. I wish I had a better answer for you. Hang in there if you can. You have to do what is right for you.
Six accounts?!?! That is nuts! I am on 3 accounts. nm

lots of ESL
This company works on VA and other accounts. The accounts have LOTS of ESL MDs on them and they are HARD ESL MDs too....the accounts are truely not worth the pay!!
lots of ESL's do not do it
You will never get out of the program and a certain mentor will grade you only on ESLs and you will not get out.
Lots of changes still going on there.

lots of ESL...sm
They are a pretty good company to work for. Pay is on time. The only thing is all the ESLs...and different doctors every day....really messes up your production, as normals are impossible.


LOTS of ESL

ESL - Chinese, Indian, Russian, Hispanic, British and many really awful english speaking newbie residents in the process of training. 


Yes, you can have (and may often need) the 12-hour window.  Workload is not consistent, had to ask for secondaries before I was there 3 months; when OT is approved other people come charging on there and take all the work.  Overstaffing appears to be a problem (though not a huge one yet).


I hope you can avoid the RadNet program, which atrocious and you are expected to be the unpaid go between for Webmedx techs and client techs, neither of which will own the problem.  Main platform, Enterprise, is slow and often slower.  Expect to have to drop what you're doing due to system freeze-ups and reboot a couple times a day.


The supe is very nice.


Sorry I meant
just like sm and not dj. I
did not see who correctly who posted first.
Oh, NO!!! That's not what I meant.
I'm sorry it came across that way.  I got duped into applying with them by all the rave reviews on the boards, too.  Plus, they make no mention of it on their website.  I refuse to work for a company that offshores.  As for the people who are happy there, more power to them.  That's their decision and I'm glad they've got great jobs.  I just need something else from a company.
SORRY - meant DRC not DSC
...
As I said, if it meant that much to me I WOULD
figured it was their loss.  No biggie to me.  All I was doing was giving MY experience with the company, which consisted of being told I would be called back, and then not being called.
THE LAST ONE MEANT FOR MT2
Thanks!
14,000 - that's what I meant to say! nm

Sorry, I meant see msg

I meant even that isn't much FOR QA...

Sorry, I think I meant DSG. nm

I am sure that is what was meant.
Would you tell your child that determination is not enough? I felt that it was not appropriate to tell a future grad that she cannot do something when there is not one of us who knows her well enough to make such a judgement.
sorry meant WILL NOT
get that rate at Deventure
what I meant was...
that I had information and if you would email me, I would share that information in a private email.
