MedTrans of America
Does anyone presently, or in the past, work for MedTrans of  America? 
Regarding Integrity MedTrans

Hi,


We did more than 2000 lines to IntegrityMedTrans last week.  After that no response in chat and no response for mail ( mail bouncing also)... People who are doing this company plz be aware.


If u have any details, plz mail us or post reply


Regarding Integrity MedTrans

They told us in trial period also they are going to pay us 6 cpl...


Hey man... come onnnnnnnnn....2000 lines....


 


I think Medtrans Unlimited pays the highest sm
They are in Austin,TX. Once at six months, it is 1.70 per regular minute and 2.12 a stat minute. On lines accounts it is .08 reg, .10 stat gross line. The company is strict and picky, and the software technical. However, you can easily make $1,000 a week there.
Kate here....

To answer your question, not that it's any business of yours, no, I'm not OCD, but what I am is very sick of hearing about jobs from this country shipped out to India and other third-world countries to mindless people who have no clue how to do them, and when they do do them, the work is sloppy and substandard at best.  


I'm also sick of how some doctors expect they are going to save a few pennies by engaging in the above practice and absolutely tickled pink when they realize there ain't no such thing as a free lunch and that one gets what one pays for. 


Then I get even more tickled pink when they call my service begging me to handle their transcription and NOT to outsource their work, not that I would ever dream of doing such a hideous thing to begin with, even if I could get the work done for free.


Finally, I am absolutely estatic when they sign on with my service at the line rate of 15 cents/gross line and then totally estatic when they see immediately off the bat what a wonder job we do for them on a consistent basis. 


It don't get any better than American made and produced, baby!  


Any questions??   


Wow, Kate...
If you would tell me what city and state you live in, I will locate a good mental health provider for you. Why are you all over this board spouting out stuff that makes you sound like a schizophrenic without meds?

I would really like to know what your problem is and why you insist on causing a broo hah hah in almost every thread.
And where do you live, Kate?
Do you have your own service by chance? Many companies are starting MTs out at 9 cpl. I don't think that is unreasonable at all as she would just be starting out and they would likely need to QA her for a few months until they feel comfortable with her work. Testing someone is not always indicative of how well they will do on an actual account, as I have found out in the past, so I always start my SCs out at a lower rate at first and increase their rate as I see what quality of work they produce and can reduce QA time. If an MT is exceptional and requires top pay to even begin working for me, then I might negotiate that but it's rarely a good idea since you really can't tell how well someone will do until they actually start an assignment.
For: clarification for Kate
I was referring to working as an IC for a service. Some services offer IC, SE and employee status positions.
That was not nice Kate.
If the advice is to seek a "professional opinion", then there would certainly be no need for this forum.
Kate's obviously been out of social circulation too long
and passes her solitary days by picking fights on message boards.

Time to find a job outside the home, Kate.
Hey, that's good advice! Listen to Kate!
Seriously, that's sound advice for anybody! Good on ya, Kate! Have a great Saturday!
Kate, when or where was that free DL? I'm an MQer & I missed it. (nm)
.
Ah geez (sm)
Well, that's what I get for trying to insert my own images  Just use your imagination.  *sigh*
Geez
By saying it was the way they talk I meant with an accent on the word as not all doctors say it that way. I was just trying to help and gave more information than some and do not appreciate the way people are sometimes treated on here.
to oh geez
Here here sister!!!!
Geez, the pay keeps going down. SM
Just saw an ad on the MT Jobs board for an experienced Transcriptionist (of course, they want the best) and the pay is 8 cpl for a 75 character line.  What's with these companies? 
geez
get a life. don't you have some work to do, or something?
Um, geez
I authored the message you responded to, and nowhere did I mention a personal preference for healthcare in Canada, or any other country for that matter. Yes, I posted a list from WHO that ranks healthcare among participating countries. Yes, Canada is on that list, but was the furthest thing from my mind when I copied and pasted that list into my post. Honestly, I don't find 30th place to be notably better than 37th place.

That said, I would love to visit Canada some day, but for healthcare I would seriously consider France (if it were an option for me, which it is not . . . nor is it necessary at this stage of the game).

Now, I have a question for you . . . How would you like to die, or even JUST suffer in pain, on the floor of the ER floor while a janitor mops around you (saw the video of that with my own eyes) and while two people have to call 911 in a futile attempt to save your life because nobody in the ER will care for you?
Oh geez, she's at it again.

GEEZ
what the heck is wrong with you?  If she is an IC she is not cheating or scamming.  And even if she is an employee, how would that be scamming and cheating.  Did she says she is falsifying records?  You have absolutely no information to base these accusations on.  Man, talk about jumping to conclusions!  
OH GEEZ
lEgitimate oh so sorry. Please, please, review all my other posts. God knows I should not err.

The problem with these boards is that someone wants to discuss something and someone else just wants to nitpick.
Geez, here we go! nm

oh geez....
We had a doc that when he said right colectomy, it sounded just like rectalectomy. If I was daydreaming I would transcribe rectalectomy but would always catch myself...except for once. I got his DS when he dictated it and he said "procedures done....rectalectomy...what the heck is that?" I knew I had made the mistake. To my knowledge, he never sent it back because I never heard about it. He must have just written through it. I could have just died!!
geez

Haaaaaa.  Just awful.  I had one where VR picked up:  The patient's blood pressure is at SCHOOL today.  


Should have been:  The patient's blood pressure is at GOAL today.


 


LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL


I meant the other way around! GEEZ

geez, you seem so hostile!

Geez, sounds like just about everyone I know!

Oh, geez! Too funny!
My house has a shortage of coffee filters all the time, so I never use those.  I like that Homestyle microwave popcorn made with real butter, but my fingers get so greasy that I have to keep a wet washcloth on the desk to wipe it off between typing.  I'm going to have to try your idea, though.
geez louise
If you're doing all that and with two jobs, I have a couple questions for you.  How the heck do you do it?  Whats your secret?  Do you get hand and arm pain whatsover???  You're doing a lot of lines.  How do you do it?
Geez, I'm sorry this offends you. I have,
Too bad I can't give you one for a shrink...sounds like you need it.
Geez, I fit the experience she needs, but
she sounds too demanding and high maintenance.  Evenings and weekends, no thanks!!!  I want this, I don't have time for that, no phone calls, need ASAP.  No MT experience required and no offer of line rate.
Geez, come on. I saw all of the OSi posts,
Yes, somebody is sticking up for OSi all over the place. However, I don't know what is so "transparent."  Somebody asked a question directly related to Smartype.  I use Smartype and I work for OSi, and my Smartype works fine in Extext.  For what it's worth, I post here on these boards about 5 times a week, sometimes on the word board, sometimes on the company board.  I check in when I'm eating lunch or taking a break.  I don't waste my time reading and posting all day long.  I just get tired of never even being able to answer someone's question.  What's with that?
Geez, RAD GUY, got my hopes up there - sm
thought is something new on the market to replace Viagra!!!
Geez!! Take a note of the pay.

Isn't being a medical Transcriptionist being an interpreter.  Seems like our pay ought to be commensurate, don't you think? 


Absolutely not, never. Geez. nm
.
They pay $20,000? Geez...that would tempt me!
Yeah, I think it is funny how they will pair one very conservative family with a very liberal family, or a hunter with a strictly veggie family. People would not want to watch as much if it went all smooth, human nature.

What did the other family think about how they were portrayed, or did you even have the chance to find out?
geez, do you have a family?
How bout kids? Spouse? I don't think your *work ethic is above* most peoples, just seems that maybe you don't have a life...might want to try one before it's too late!
And "harrumph!" to you, too! Geez....
.
Geez this gets me excited!
I just ordered this program yesterday and am SO anxious for it to arrive.  I have been an MT for about 4 months using only the Expander build into Inscribe.  I have a feeling my whole world is about to change.  THANKS for all the participation on this thread
ah, geez, Edith.
nm
geez, you guys.
You will find that everywhere you go with every job. Where there is a group of women working together, you will have all of that crap. It's the way of the world!
geez louise, where are you from emt?
hope you're not an MT.
blame the victim, geez
You people crack me up.  Blame the victim and her family.  For pete sake.  You sound like the type of person who would blame a rape victim cause she was wearing a short skirt.  The Aruban Govt thinks that boy is guilty, that is why they are holding him.  He is guilty, IMHO.  His story has changed several times.  If you are innocent, you have one story.  He left her on the beach, come on, who would leave a young girl, not familiar with the area, on a beach at 2-3 in the morning?  The person at fault?  The person who murdered her or kidnapped her and I think it is that obviously well off son of a high ranking lawyer.  Instead of pointing fingers at her family, we should be sending prayers and hope.
blame the victim, geez
Sorry, but if you dont' want to get picked up and treated as such, don't go to places like that p. e. r. i. o. d. And yes, some women ask for it maybe not intentionally, but it happens. People need to start taking reponsibility for their stupid decisions.
Geez, at least give her credit for trying. At least, sm
if didn't work out and she had to go inhouse, at least she could say she tried. No harm in that, at least that is my opinion.
You really need to get a life. Geez, you even managed to
troll a fun poll post.  Sounds like a personality disorder to me.  Maybe you're the one who needs a romantic outlet.  Gotta rain on everyone else's parade because you're so miserable.
Geez. It's a method to be more accountable for
a minimum amount of work.
She was being facaetious about the big bucks..geez.
x
Geez..a little snippy aren't we?
not
Geez, you missed my point.
Benefits are not mandatory.


Oh, geez. This is a troll! LOL Pay no attention!!
LOL
