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.
Amphion in Wisconsin
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.

I know a director looking for MTs in central FL
She's an ex-boss who wanted me to work for them but I'm out of state. The facility requires the MTs to be in-state and wouldn't budge on that. She wants to depend on outside services/off-shoring as little as possible and hopefully not at all. Again, another I've found who is nauseated by the whole thing - do I see a hopeful trend? Cardiology background is necessary. Want me to check particulars?

Are they located in Central CA?
I think this place might be local for me.

I'm in East Central Indiana and
have Comcast.  When we first had it, it was down all the time.  It turned out to be a faulty modem, which they had supplied.  Once they changed that out, they have been incredibly reliable.  It is very, very rare that they are down, and if they are it is usually less than an hour.

desktop calendar Cozi Central
Check out Cozi Central on the web. I LOVE IT! You use a different color for each family member, so you can see everyone's schedule at once. Or you can select one person's schedule. You can schedule a year in advance, if you want. There's a web version and a PC version. The web version can be accessed from any computer anywhere you go. Cozi Central gave me my life back! It's so easy!
Any info on CTS central trans. serv.??

Can't find anything in archives.  You have to reveal so much with these companies so would like to know about your experiences with them.


Thanks.

Wow! I'm in North Central Florida. Last month's electric bill was $165. sm
I have electric everything and keep the thermostat set at 73. Some folks here with a different electric company have had bills triple to quadruple their normal. You may want to do some investigating.
This heat is unbearable in central Calif. Air quality is bad. I have never felt so unhealthy.
Over 100 degrees for 30 out of 35 days, the other days were 98 or 99. The air is so bad here in this pocket of the country that people are told to stay indoors. I sit for hours typing and then feel like a slug. Drinking gatorade for hydration and know it is high in sodium but am evaporating here, taking two showers a day as there is a constant dust cloud (particulates ugh).

I want to move but doing it alone at the age I am is a daunting task. What if I end up some place that is just as bad? The expense would make it impossible to relocate again. Wish I were rich...
