Not enough work at my current job - need a company that offers ER-only work.  Anyone work for them that could share an opinion?  Would love also to hear how much they pay.  Thanks so much!

REVIEWS FOR FAILURE
The things being taken off on for the review is pathetic too. "During this hospitalization" being marked wrong because the reviewer states the dictation said "during this hospital stay", etc. and so on. These so called reviews are jokes. We are educationed professionals and don't appreciate slave driver tactics.
Mixed reviews
I can't speak for all of them, but my experience was that while they help in terms of lowering interest, you are still going to be stuck for years and years because that is the name of the game with credit card sharks...

The politicians have made it even easier for the cc companies to "enslave"
people by making is really really hard to declare bankruptcy - and there are many legitimate reasons for filing bankrupt. NOtice how minimum payments went up right after that law passed? It's no accident.

You can usually tell which companies are professional and which aren't... but pay close attention to the fees you are paying them to cut your interest... They get a kickback from the credit card companies on top of that fee - make sure it's not out of bounds. Good luck (free advise: cut up all cards except for one!).
Thanks. It seems to get such good reviews..
It is slowing me down so much, but now I have to start all over again.  8(  oh well....
Check reviews.
Horrible with both suppliers. Law suits, etc.
PEER Reviews
Has anyone ever been through a PEER Review? I have a PEER review on Friday and am not sure what questions will be asked. The position is for a part time data entry clerk in a Diagnostic Imaging Center. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.

For anyone who reviews records, how do you charge?

Many moons ago when I worked for a medical group and the transcription work ran low, I asked if I could take a stab at summarizing records for medical-legal patients.  It was a nice change of pace, and the doctors loved getting out of this chore.  As an employee, I was paid my usual hourly wage.  If anyone does this as an IC, how do you charge for it?


I'm thinking by the hour would be the only way to go unless it were really straight-foward, i.e., reviewing reports in the order received, date of report, name of provider, basically copy typing test results, diagnosis, and conclusions. 


Some doctors might ask that the HPI, PMH, etc. be read through, looking for discrepancies in the history or pre-existing similar conditions and commenting on that, which can take a good deal of time to do to come up with a short line indicating no discrepancies, making cpl not the way to go. 


I know different areas of the country would charge different rates, so I'm not looking for specific charges but a general rule of thumb, if there is such a thing.  If you charge by the hour (or by the line), how does that compare to what you make per hour (or per line) doing straight transcription? 


Thanks for any input!


Also try www.makeupalley.com for reviews on beauty products;

Well, I've heard rave reviews about (sm)

The Surgery Word Book too.  I'm thinking of make it the next book on my wish list.  I recently purchased the Stedman's Medical and Surgical Equipment Words, but from what I understand now I should have gone with the Surgical Word Book instead.  Oh well, never can have enough books can we? 


 


I have found great reviews on Kapersky. Do you know if...
they offer a free trial? I just downloaded Webroot Internet Security and it's "supposed" to be pretty good. I've got it free for 14 days. Thanks!
Hourly wage for Med Rec Reviews in Cali
It's been many years since I've charged for med record reviews and have no clue what the going rate may be.  They are for QME reports.  Anyone have any idea on what would be fair to both parties?  Thank yew!!!
I think the amount of work sent to QA is is very bad idea to limit that. I can understand QA reviews
but to limit the amount of work to QA to get a bonus which is my understanding will cause people to not send things to QA when the dicator makes an obvious error and you dont want to chance correcting it. There are extremely bad dictators and depending on where they are dictating the noise can be horrendous on the phone lines or cells or whatever they are doing. My goodness, you have an attitude.
WEBMEDX
can anyone tell me their experience with this company????? Desparate for info.
WEBMEDX DOES
Webmedx allows a window of time for the MT to work their required hours.
WEBMEDX!

Definitely Webmedx! 


WebMedX
Has anyone worked for MebMedX?   Was thinking about applying.
Webmedx
Have worked for Webmedx now for many years - great company!!  They have treated me very well as an MT - flexible schedule, good pay, great incentive pay, etc., plus they have very affordable insurance.  I say go for it! 
Webmedx

Their highest level is 4.  I was just hired at that level.


webmedx
I'm a level 4, and I don't make 10 cpl - how did you swing that?
Webmedx - do they have ICs?
Any info about this company would be appreciated.

About WebMedX
Does WedMedX provide a computer too? What about for PT? Thanks.

WEBMEDX DOES NOT
Webmedx uses their own proprietary program, not Dictaphone ExText.
webmedx
Just a heads up for Webmedx -- they're a great co. but find out how much of their work is ESL and if that's what you really want.
Webmedx

In fact, Spheris just downgraded their insurance this year to where its a joke.  Corporate kept the good policy and MT's got the crap policy "because they use it too much".


Webmedx has very decent BCBS, and costs less than Spheris because Webmedx pays a large portion of the premium for the employee.  That shows they care about their MT's.  I'm glad I made the change.


NOT WebMedX

According to a recent WebMedX ad on the Job Seeker's Board, they DO NOT ACCEPT Satellite. 


WEBMEDX
Fax: 1.614.839.3706

Method of Sending/Receiving files: Internet. Cable modem or DSL required. Cannot use a dial-up or satellite connection.


WEBMEDX
Can anyone give me information about WEBMEDX.  Also, does anyone know anything about their VR program and how user friendly it is.  Also, anyone know their line rate for VR.  Thanks
I'm using it with Webmedx. nm

Working for WebMedX
I have worked for them for over 6 months now.  I really like working for them.  Pay and benefits are good.  I haven't seen much overtime and sometimes they are low on work (only around Labor Day), but they will train you so you have backup accounts.  Good people. They treat you well and have good communication, but don't nag at you.  They are flexible for your working hours.  They pay shift differential and weekend differential.  Pay is based on experience level...and the tests are a little tough for some people.  The accounts they have are all great, as far as I can tell, with good dictators for the most part.  I'm a high level 4, so I get ESLs, but they aren't too bad.  Training is easy to understand and their platform is so easy to use.  They use Shorthand.  I give them a thumbs up!!  My experience has been pretty good.  I have worked for several nationals before them and they are, by far, my favorite and seem to be the most fair pay-wise.  Hope the info helps.
Webmedx offered me 10 cpl
They require at least 1000 lines per week.  Incentive of 11 cpl over a certain amount of lines per week.  This was for their highest level (3).  I think they have a lot of ESL though. 
Not my company, but I think WebMedX has you do this. nm

OldTymer, are you still with Webmedx?
I saw one of your old posts searching archives, I think 2003.  You said you were very happy with company.  Still hold true? 
CHECK OUT WEBMEDX

Check out Webmedx.


Webmedx has the best benefits, all around sm
that I have encountered with a service. I end up using my PTO for sick days and other, but if I didn't, I would have 10 paid days of vacation; 5 days the first year, 10 days the next 4 years. No sick leave, per se, just all called PTO. Health insurance is reasonable for an individual, high for family. But the insurance is really good coverage.
Webmedx will take anyone. They even take recent sm
graduates and pay them to do acute care, with no experience.  I don't think they would care that your acute care was in the past.  Just empathize it, and demand a decent line rate.  It is all going to ASR, anyway, and you will become an editor, just like the other very experienced MTs.
I got a job with WebMedx from this site.

Webmedx shifts

Is it set in stone that you have to work a weekend day with Webmedx?  Is there any way around that?


 


I bet the company is Webmedx too. nm
 
WEBMEDX is a joke
This company is bologna.  They expect you to be released from QA within 1-3 days, even though you need to learn an entirely new platform.  The QA mentors in training will pick your work apart, take hours upon hours to get back to you with feedback, and then you will be blamed by your Supervisor for POOR QUALITY.  DONT WASTE YOUR TIME with this SCAM.
Does anyone know--Is Sean Carroll at Webmedx..
the same Sean Carroll who was CEO of  a company by the name of Transquick out of Atlanta about 10 years ago?  Just curious.
does webmedx hire clinic

Need to hear from successful MTs at Webmedx
I heard about their incentive program.  It is really that good?  Can you make a lot of $$ there?  Do they run out of work?
Webmedx 10 cents a line for IC.
.
Webmedx, probably about 300 MTs. is that large or small?
x
Webmedx supplies all equipment. They do have a (sm)
pretty high ratio of ESLs, but the QA is really good here. They DO NOT penalize for blanks or sending reports to QA. I don't know about family insurance, but single is very reasonable, BCBS. They also offer dental and vision.
WEBMEDX Rad accts-anyone know platform..
is it all internet based or do you have to have a phone line, C-Phone, etc?  Very interested in applying but work now strictly via internet.  Thanks for any input!
Transtech/Transhealth/WebMEDX..(sm)
