transcription and typing company

Questions to ask the company your work for:  How often are the lights turned off?  How often does your phone get shut off? How often do you lose internet service for nonpayment?  How may checks -payroll or otherwise did you bounce this month, this year? How many IRA accounts did you take money from?  How is your inhouse turn around for employees?  How many excuses can you come up with for my late payroll?  You want a schedule of my availability, but do you offer work to keep me busy during the time you insist I be available?  How many times have you paid your full time employees late?  How many times have you asked your fulltime employees to invest $17,500 into your company while bouncing checks?  How much did you spend on a christmas party without bonuses paid to your employees and even paying them AFTER the holidays late?


You would be surprised what one company's answer would be.  Home base  =  PA.  Beware people.  What is good today is not always good tomorrow.  Am I bitter, no.  My dream job as an inhouse employee was shattered when my eyes were open.  And I left on my own because of it.

transcription and typing
I am working as an IC now myself and love it.  I was a inhouse management for this company and the abuse was astounding.  I had to leave when I realized that they did not get the fact the without the MT's they could not survive, adn with the inhouse personnell they would fall.  i look forward to them having to close up shop.  I am pursuing legal action  against them for money that was stolen from my IRA, and will do all I can to see that they are truly seen for what they are. They not only give MTs a bad name, they give the industry a bad name.  In cases like this it is not only the MTs who suffer but the people who work the office who have families and responsibilities, that this company shows no mercy for.  They expect you to be available 24/7 and you are not allowed to associate with any past employee or their families or you will be fired.  Meanwhile they can steal from you.  They have bounced so many checks but the MTs never press charges, who can blame them, they want their money.  But by not charging them, it makes it easier for them to do it to others.

I believe that all MTs need to ask those questions to the business they are associated with, it really does not matter what the name is or where they are.  Read the bulletins, everybody has a situation similar and eventually they get burned.


 If you are working for a company and are worried about your future it does not matter what someone else may say, it is your experience and the answers you get to questions you ask that you find important.  Good luck. and good try.

No ask to grind, axe either. This forum is for the open opinions, comments etc of MTs. Maybe you are just one of those that do not wish to hear about others concerns. Good for you. I stated those questions should be asked in one way or another and investigated. It would be highly unprofessional to walk into any situation without knowing your turf. Only those with a problem would have difficulties answering them. Only problem I have is the ESL I am working on at this moment.
Info wanted on American Transcription Typing Svc out of GA?
Anyone working there now that can share any info?  Thanks. 
The name of the company is D&L Typing Service
Their web address is www.medicalreport.com
Company typing pools
The company I currently work has auto pooling and typing pools.  This is the first time I have come across this term.  Would somebody please let me know what this entails?  It sounds like a bad thing.  :(
That's silly. Its a typing platform, not a company!
Many companies use it, or used to use it. I even said that I knew people weren't lying about Vienetta out of job worries as the company I was going to work for was a 2 woman local office run out of a garage. Lots of MTs educated me about Vienetta on this forum, and they weren't my competition at all! Nor am I out to keep the original poster from taking a job using Vienetta.  Just shared with them the info that was shared with me a while back. Shame on you to imply otherwise.
Are you on straight typing or VR/typing?

Hello all, by chance has anyone there heard of Brown and Myers transcripion services?  I really need some feedback.  Thanks.
I don't think this is a transcription company.
Found the website www.yoursafeandhappyhome.com. Then if you Google the lady who runs this site, you will see she is targeting SAHMs with all kinds of different WAH jobs. Tons of red flags on this one for me.

OSi Transcription Company
Just curious if anyone can tell me if it is hard or not to get your line count in for OSi.  I'm currently in the process of taking the tests for the job.  I am working for MQ right now and it's horrible with getting your line count.  I make it, but I have to work my butt off to get it.  I was forced into MQ and now am trying to find something better.  Any information would be much appreciated.  Also, what's their pay like?  Thanks a bunch!
T-C Transcription Company

When I talked to the recruiter she said they paid for spaces.   I worked for a company that did not  pay for spaces now and I am not going to go that route again I do not think.  I think the pay for on the low side too for my years of exp.  She told me FT and PT get paid the same and only the third shift makes more.  Insurance was not bad and it compatible with what I am paying now.    The only thing that was told to me was 500 lines for PT.    I think I will ask more questions  before I fill out paperwork.  Thanks for input


Actually, I did run my own transcription company (sm)
I had 4 girls working for me, plus I did the transcription, payroll, getting the tapes and delivering them to the girls and delivering the transcription - yes I did not have digital.

The girls got what I got right across the board. I never, ever took a cut from them. I incurred my own expenses of gas, phone. That was it. I worked out of my home and did it.

As an IC, you have the right to charge what you think the job is worth. Do you shop around for a better price when having repairs done in your home? Do you automatically take the cheapest one? Or do you take the one that costs more, but has the experience and the know how to get the job done and get it done correctly?

That is my point. The MTSOs say they cannot pay above a certain amount when in fact I would bet that they can. Think about it. Not in a stressed out kind of way, but just think about it.
Company info on OSI Transcription

Has anyone ever worked for OSI Transcription?  If so, are they decent?  I just did the online transcription test and am awaiting their answer. I would hate to give up my local jobs for this one and find out they are not a decent company.


Thanks,

Company info on OSI Transcription
I've only been with them a few weeks, but so far, its been okay. Have had some minor issues regarding equipment and work, but these were resolved to my satisfaction by my manager. First pay was on time without any problems. If things continue as they are, I will probably be with them for a long while.

Not Sure Which Transcription Company to Supplement With
I'm really in a quandry! I've been an IC but also handle overflow and get some work from another local transcription company. Right now, it's just not enough, and I'm not sure if more is coming! I've been doing this for almost 20 years. I still can't tell from the posts which is the best national company to supplement with. It seems that if there are negative posts about a company, they get wiped off the boards! Can you give me your opinions?
