On clinic accounts, sure. nm
Grateful to have my job, though.
Loved Alltype! Great management and great accounts.
wah  -  i miss it there!
Keystrokes used to for some clinic accounts nm
.
are your accounts acute or clinic?
nm
There are a few accounts that do not need high speed. I am on one. It is clinic.
Best bet is to send it in anyway and be up front about it!
Clinic accounts going to India or SR, that doesn't
xx
Wmx has acute, clinic, radiology and ER accounts. nm
.
Does MDI-MD have clinic accounts or only acute care? nm
nm
Unless the company just has clinic accounts, they usually require
that you work one weekend day and there is no differential for that.  There may be a differential if you work both days.  I get shift differential for working outside first shift hours.   There are always exceptions to the above, though more and more companies are going with a weekend day required. 
That is only for ortho and clinic, not HIM and radiology and only certain accounts. sm
I am Mon-Fri. I have not worked a weekend in 3 years with the exception of one Saturday because I took off on Monday and switched with someone.
8 cpl for clinic work is great. What company
xx
That account has now added clinic and there are 2 other accounts moving to it. Not sure why they
want the experience, except maybe they need to get them started quickly, and that is easier if they know it in advance.

BTW: The account did get easier as they added work types.
specify, clinic/acute, IC/employee, national/own accounts,
nm
Is that the only option, though? How about great accounts at 10 cpl? :-) nm

Great people, IC only, low pay, easy accounts, sm

direct deposit, paid weekly, always on time.


Hope this helps.  Good luck!


Which companies out there have great ortho accounts??

I would like to find a company that has a lot of ortho..It's my first love. Any suggestions??


Great office staff, okay pay, horrible ESL's on all accounts. NM
NM
Good accounts, great people, plenty of work. sm

I'm past that "honeymoon" stage of the first few months that another poster mentioned.  I still find them to be the best for me.  Never run out of work, always there for questions, including timely responses, great people (QA and otherwise). 


I'd highly suggest contacting either your supervisor or Jane (as she offered) about lack of work.  As you should see on the daily reports, there is plenty of work out there. 


Good luck & I hope it works out for you. 


Hourly pay, great benefits, schedule depends upon which accounts...sm
you are QAing.  Solid company.  Good luck!
Great office staff, okay pay, no benefits, horrible ESL all accounts...NM
NM
Great people, difficult details on accounts to remember...nm
x
Easy platform, assigned accounts, always plenty of work. Great OM and boss. nm

I find the sound quality not so great on some accounts. I guess it depends on what account you get
on. 
Two are hospitals, one is a clinic. The biggest one is a clinic that only does sm
oncology. We cannot post account names here and do not give out that information until confidentiality forms are signed.

I can tell you that a very, very large oncology hospital will be starting on March 1st that will need 30+ transcriptionists to run smooth.
Keystrokes has great ortho accounts and a wonderful manager over the ortho work. sm
I have worked with them for 4 years and will never leave unless something drastically changes. I do not post here normally as it seems that there are so many negative people, but this is one I felt I could answer without being attacked.
Webmedx fits that bill, great company, great benefits, great pay and always on time. NM

Great company, great boss, great account!!!nm

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.


System great, pay good, everything great, but most managers from old Edix, problems, poor people ski
when you are out of work, you are out of luck. If you are good at brown-nosing, are tough enough to be without any self-esteem, and have maybe money coming into the household on the side in case you tick someone off, then you may succeed, for a little while.

Don't ever ask questions or have problems with anything. Don't ever have a problem. Don't think you will have any control over anything you do, either.

A few 'good' managers remained when I left, but the new ones were all from the old Edix, and were completely into numbers, cared nothing for individual MTs...if there is work, you BETTER be working. If there no work, you will hear nothing, no one will help you.
You are pathetic! I have a great life, loving family, work for a great company.
You might want to fix that.

You really don't have to shout (angry person), but yes you are wrong!!

That is my last word to you!

I will add that getting a great pay check every other Friday from Medware really puts a huge smile on my face.
Oracle is great. Bayscribe is wonderful great line counts.
The trainer at OTI will always answer any questions about the platform and if you have any problems they have already worked them out, so just ask. Good luck!
YOG - Lots of work, great office staff, great money. NM

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. 
It's a great company -- lots of work and great pay. sm
Web site is www.mditrans.net.  If you need anymore info, feel free to ask. 
AXOLOTL - A GREAT COMPANY WITH GREAT INSURANCE
Axolotl has AWESOME, AFFORDABLE insurance.  Family plan medical and dental costs a little over $300.00 MONTHLY.  They also pay for family plan vision in its entirety.  STD, LTD, 401K with match and flex spending account, great PTO and HOLIDAY pay.  OH and paid downtime in the case you run out of work, which doesn't happen often!!! 
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.
Great pay, great benefits for 11+ years..sm
I've just started with this great company (eMTS).  I have 11+ years of experience and I was started at .10 per line as a regular employee, not IC, with a huge sign-on bonus, full benefits, very nice people, and a good account.  So far, this is the best experience I've had in my years as a transcriptionist.  Unfortunately, I don't believe they're hiring more right now, but you could always check in with them, they're online at eMTS.com.  The management seems to really care and they work with you.
Great company, great boss....

I use to work there.  The dictators on my account were really good.  They use Emdat/Inscribe.  Pay on 1st and 15th by direct deposit.


That''s great and I've heard they pay great as well.
I just have heard a lot of adjectives for a few accounts - zinger, killer, impossible, etc., and I sure know I couldn't hack it there. But I'm sure they know what they are getting into when they sign up.
9 cpl, clinic, 3 yrs exp.

I am getting some clinic but...
I don't want to ask for just clinic because I've always been told I'll have a job longer in this industry if I can do acute care. I'm thinking it's probably in my best interest right now to stick with acute care.
Clinic
That sounds perfect. Is that company hiring? I have over 10 years of experience. Thanks!
Are they mostly clinic or ER?
nm
Do you do clinic or ? nm

Clinic
I have done the clinic account from day one, as i did not have access to a serial port, and the other account they were hiring for at the time was on escription, which requires a serial pedal. The Clinic account is on ExText. I have seen a lot of people complain about ExText, but I have had no problems with it, although this may be because I spent the bulk of my career just working directly in word
If you have clinic-only exp, it may be SM

more difficult for you, since very few services will employ someone for only clinic work and you may have to take on acute care, which will be a learning curve.


I think the biggest difference you would see money-wise is if you are getting your benefits from your current job, there is going to be a big shock when you see how much you will have to contribute to your insurance.  PTO/vacation time is much less working from home also.
