Amphion in Wisconsin
Has anyone else got any feedback about Amphion out of Wisconsin? I was given this name by someone in response to my post and they spoke highly of this company. I just wondered what others have heard. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks for getting back to me. Below is my "wish list." I have 15 years of experience in transcription and want to find a company that can offer:
1) Work weekdays from about 4 AM to 12 noon (but not assigned to a specific shift).
2) No mandatory weekends but can "plug in" on weekends and nights to make extra and do not have to get special permission.
3) Compensation by the page rather than the line if possible.
4) Assigned to one or two accounts that do not run out of work.
5) Accounts where doctors have normals (and getting paid for the normals).
6) Can use ShortHand word expander.
7) Have Microsoft Word - just a preference since I've used it before
8) Have done all specialties over the years but love oncology.
9) Prefer consults, discharges, H&Ps, etc.
10) Company provides hardware and software.
11) Paid benefits: Vacation (I get 10 days now), sick, holidays, 401K (matching would be wonderful), health insurance, et.

Obviously, this is a wish list and I can't imaging being able to find a company that can offer me all of the above, but these are the things that are of importance to me. I currently work for a service and do hospital oncology which I love, but am looking to make a change to a different service. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks for your reply. A few more questions if you have the time:

1. Did you have to go to their headquarters to train when you started or can someone who works from home be trained at home?
2. If you have to input patient name, medical record number, etc. for each report do you find it very time consuming and slows down your productivity?
3. How do you feel about the way you're treated routinely?
4. Are you happy with their compensation (payment per line, benefits, etc.)?
5. When you want to work overtime (over your 40 hour week) are you generally allowed to do so?
6. They require 12,000 lines minimum per pay period to be full time with benefits. Do you find it difficult to meet that requirement with the accounts that you have?
7. Do you like working on the Extent platform? I'm used to Microsoft Word and do not know how they compare.
8. Is their dictation usually clear?
9. Do a lot of the doctors have "normals" you can put in and be compensated for?

Thanks in advance for your time. Right now I can't think of anything else but if I do can I contact you again with questions?
Was this national in Wisconsin?
Just curious - I remember taking a radio button skills test and having to TX 4 files, and I passed, but decidend to go with another service.  If you did indeed not pass the skill set (but you don't REALLY know that you failed - just what they are telling you) - I would suggest brushing up with "Medical Terminology," by Davi Ellen Chabner and getting a Taber's Cyclopedic Dictionary (one that the nurses use).  Of course, I'm probably dating myself and there are better reference materials out there now - but those are what I used in college when I "almost" became a nurse.

I actually work for a company based out of Wisconsin. Are you happy with your benefits with Humana One.
