Mine post soon as document is sent
The longest delay I've ever had was about 30 seconds.
Mine posts immediately, but the count is wrong. nm

I corrected it immediately in my lower post....nm

The other post isn't mine, but it was very
clear to me. 
Don't have mine yet either...agree with above post about company going downhill..sm
A constant lack of work since November.  One day we are working and then the next day we are told to sign off because of no work and to not sign in until they tell us. In total since November I have missed 17 days due to no work.  That is a lot of money for me.  Hard to get another job because I need my insurance.
Mine does not post until 11pm the night of payroll. It is the bank. sm
I have talked to others and some post the night before, some by morning, some by noon. Mine is the worst I have heard of, but it is the way everything posts with my bank. It is one of the largest banks in the world too!
Alt T then Alt W while in a document. sm
This gives you characters, including spaces; add together and divide by 65 for # of lines. I put this # on my log. I can then double check with session statistics at the end of the day if I want.

Glad you like it!
AB Document Services???

AB Document Services?

Does anybody have any current information on this company that is in Arizona (work load, etc.)?


TIA!


If you're in a VR document, even if it's
so bad that you have to retype entire paragraphs, it's still considered VR -- if that's what you're asking. When people refer to switching between VR and straight typing, they are referring to entire reports, some of which you type from scratch and some of which you deal with what VR has vomited out. Good luck to you.
same lines as word document
The only thing you dont get paid for is the ADT screen, which takes me about 2 seconds to hit the search, date and cc. I really dont care about not getting paid for ADT because it doesn't take any time at all to do this. The document itself always comes out the same line count as word. I think the benefit for this program outweighs not getting paid for ADT at least for me. I also have 2 IC accounts on the side. Their programs are time consuming in figuring out codes, and then saving and sending it in a different format... plus dr. lists manual insert. Another thing on one account you have to email the person every time to get more work so it doesnt flow like DQS. So I think DQS is the most user friendly program I've used. When you copy and paste DQS to word its always been exactly the same lines for me and also the red headings you are paid for.
If I figured on the same document why would this matter?

Isn't it against the law for a company to ask you NOT to document your OT hours?
That alone would be a huge red flag for me.  They want you to work OT, but not document it on your timesheet!  That smells fishy! 
doing only a 'spell check' on a VR document
without reading and correcting the whole document, line by line, will NEVER work!
Now I understand! That's the way the editing MTs do it when getting the high line count?
Wow!
On second thought, maybe I should try it out!!!
You are supposed to document discrepancies in a QA note...
of course, doing so will take you over your 15% max of QA referrals, but what the hey...
This isn't a medical document, editor. Focus. :)

It appears to do only the document you are in. As I trust my co. to tally for me, I don't know m
about the function. You might be able to write a macro to do that...but I have no idea how to do that.
could you quickly copy and paste your document into another? then
you could just keep adding on the lines in each document to your own master document for the day. Then you would have a line count for the day. I bet you could write a macro to do this.
446 lines in 30 minutes? What does your document look like? Same as before your editing?..nm
nm
Think they're Integrated Document Solutions. Someone asked about them last month. nm
s
Had to toggle between many screens, no support or qa to speak ofl they dock $10 per document
;p
go to Tools -> Word Count in open document and values will show. nm
nm
Are you saying that you are immediately
no message
You will get set up immediately with
no problems and they are the best company I have worked for as far as helping solve problems immediately.
The one immediately above us. nm
 
I would be looking for another job immediately...sm
Good luck on the matter.
I suppose you have to write down the line count for every single document and it doesnt track them
for a total for the while day. That is what I was wondering.
I bet you 1 million $$ you won't find one on mine. Mine is
2 years old and it does not have a 9-pin serial port, nor does it have a game port.   I have used both ports on other computers so I know what both ports look like.  I also have a company provided computer and it does have the ports on it. 
Sure, we will all email you immediately. Are you really
ewwwwww!!
If it was me, I would have told them no way immediately. nm
You showed great restraint.
I quit immediately.
You got paid for the straight typing, no templates.

They advertise quite a lot and that's probably the reason why!
Need ananswer immediately, please!!
On Friday of last week,  I drove almost 100 miles to an interview that was supposed to be a subcontractor position.  I was asked to come in for the day and type some reports to get familiar with the account and to see if I wanted to do it.  I drove the 100 miles, typed for the company.  Keeping in mind that I was a subcontractor and could work and quit when I wanted, I decided to give it a try.  As soon as I got home, she called and wanted me to work on Saturday to get the hospital caught it. So, I transcribed on Saturday.  Then, I received a call on Sunday requesting that I type.  So, I typed on Sunday.   I got phone calls all day yesterday, Monday, pleading that I work and the hospital is seeing that I am logged on, but no work is coming in.  The work was not coming in because I received Japanese/Chinese discent dictators and it literally took me an hour a report.  I received calls all day long.  To work, change things,  work more, and I was told now that I was their go-to girl and needed me to work, work, work.  I could not log off because I would get calls.  So, today, which is Tuesday,  their system broke down and when they finally fixed it, guess what, they needed me to work an additional 8 hours.  This was after I got up early to work, but due to their system break down, I was hours behind.  After listening to 3 messages on my answering machine, I sent an email telling her I have accepted another position.    Four hours after I sent her the email, she called me up and asked why I was not working for her and that she is going to lose her account.  I asked her if she got my email.  SHE SAID SHE GOT MY EMAIL, BUT DID NOT REALIZE I WAS NOT WORKING FOR HER ANYMORE.  How ridiculous is this?  She said she needed me to log on now because I was her go-to girl and she was going to lose her account.  I am exhaused, but she needs me until Friday or she will lose her account.  I am a subcontractor.  Also, I signed no papers and she could shaft me for my money if I stay. WHAT SHOULD I DO?  SHOULD I LOG IN AND WORK UNTIL FRIDAY AND HOPE SHE PAYS ME OR JUST MOVE ON?  She sounded desperate, but she has worked me out all ready.
I quit immediately, too.
It won't be a blip on the radar of D's sell-out, unfortunately, but at least I know I did the right thing for myself and my belief system/ethics.

Congratulations to us, and anyone else who is in a position to do the same!
I'd see a red flag immediately if a company sm
waited a year to test me. From everything you said, it sounds like this company is desperately trying to fill a quota of US MTs to land/keep this account. Anyone born in the USA would do. If you were sincere in not wanting to work for companies that offshore, you should say so clearly right at the start and not go through all the traveling, testing, and ironing! I'm sorry this turned out to be such a negative for you. Best to do research beforehand.


I heard back immediately

 I got a one sentence email saying I didn't have enough experience. Must be pretty difficult work. I have been typing all work types for 19 years, especially psych and radiology..the two on the list. I have also done ESL in every job I have ever been employed. Oh well, asked her to keep my name in the barrell!


 


 


start immediately to think about ESLs........
nm
I too made quota immediately
!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was immediately offered a position with

Webmedx after the interview.   I didn't have to test based on my experience and score on the verbal testing. 


If you applied through TransHealth they still seem to be operating as two separate companies and dealing with a different group of people.  I applied to them before the merge and I never heard from them after submitting my resume. 


Stop typing immediately....and see what happens.
They'll be blowing your phone up. Tell them, when they put your check in the bank, you'll start back typing, because you don't type for free. They gave you a date you will get paid and they should honor that. In the meantime, be looking for something else.
You are right. I am going to implement this title immediately. Thank you very much! nm

I would immediately eliminate Focus.

It is Indian run, low pay, and constant turnover.   I haven't heard much good about Diskriter either, though certainly better than Focus.  KS is good for some, not for others.  It wasn't a good fit for me.  Axolotol pays better than any of them, better benefits.   The account they are hiring for has a high percentage of very challenging ESL dictators.  The company itself is great though. 


All of you should stop working immediately so that they can see how valuable
you are. Let them work it out then.
docking $10 per report for mistakes. I immediately sent in

This discussion will cease immediately. You are WAY off base. We do not

cater to any company in the manner you describe just because a company may be a sponsor.  The reason that we remove content about ANY company is when posters use this site as a sounding board of their complaints posting to the point where the thread flames.  At that point, I will remove the thread and tell posters to take discussion to email until things settle down. 


If you have problems with a company, you need to take it up with them. Sounding off on this forum about the inner workings of any company is innapropriate.  Posters need to use tact when posting.


Many of you know me well enough by now that I would not remove posts just because some MTSO tells me to.

Part & Full Time Data Entry & Document Coding Position - Sara McDaniel - HR Administrator
This company has ads on other web sites. You have to pay them $55 to do a background check up front. Guess what? If you don't get hired, they've got your $55. Don't know if it's legit - just posting facts.
Do the MQ firm scheduled start immediately or in January? nm

Depends. If you're hourly, you acrue immediately!

I was told hourly start to accrue PTO immediately...
production employees after 1 year. BUT - that doesn't mean you can't take a vacation, just that you don't get paid. When I worked a factory job some years ago, you didn't get any vacation the first year - paid or unpaid!
