Thank you for the tip, but I did already check out Transcription Matchmaker, and they require 2 years experience to even sign up.

CS benefits
Actually, according to CS, EvCC students are not allowed to participate in the STT or Focus programs. I have seen complaints on the forum from EvCC students that are angry because they feel like they are not getting the same opportunities as regular CS students.
No benefits
I am an IC, so I get no benefits. Yes, I work 12+ hours because that is how long it takes me to reach between 1200-1300 lines daily, most of those lines are VR though. I did get mentoring, which was very tough and I did nearly quit then, but I knew I had to start somewhere.
Well, thank you for your thoughts. You do make some very good points.
What types of benefits to MT's get?
Do they get health benefits at all?
Medware benefits
How good are their benefits? I am searching for a company with reasonably priced benefits. The company I work for now is great, but the benefits are kind of expensive.
Career Step online benefits
There are partnership training programs in place with employers such as Spheris and Focus Infomatics to place you in a job upon graduation that are only available for the online CS course ONLY.
since you already have a little experience, go apply at a hospital. They have benefits, mentoring,
etc. In a few years time, you'll be on your way to really cleaning up.
MediVoxx
A company called MediVoxx in Louisville KY gives newbies a chance! They did me and I've been with them for two years now.
Medivoxx
I am a new grad looking for employment. If anyone has any information on Medivoxx, I would appreciate any replies. 
Medivoxx
I was wondering if anyone has worked for this company. If so, how did you like it?
MediVoxx
I currently work for MediVoxx. Pay is 5 cpl. You receive VR files which help with most docs and some not. Their staff is great. I've been with them for two years now...right out of school they hired me.
MediVoxx
I did some initial testing with them and received a reply to fill out some documentation and do another test. At the time, they were requiring employees to commit to 30 hours per week, which I couldn't do because I had just become an IC on a part-time basis with someone else. From what I understand, I think it is editing of voice recognition documents, but I have no idea of what they pay. What I do know is they are willing to hire new grads so it may be a good place to start, even if it isn't direct transcription.
Keep up the job search! I applied to almost 100 companies and finally got a job with a friend of a friend who needed some help with her business. Good luck to you!
MediVoxx
Anyone heard of MediVoxx, or have any experience with them? I'm a recent MT grad and am busy applying all over the place.
Thank you for any input.
MediVoxx
VR files are voice recognition files. When you receive the files from MediVoxx, you also receive a VR file. It is sometimes a long rambling document and other times it is a near-perfect document you only need to edit, add dates, patient names, set up, etc. I do approximately 800 to 1000 lines a day, never had a shortage of work, paychecks always on time, and never hesitated to call in if I had a question about a dictator, work schedule, etc.
Medivoxx
Have you tried MediVoxx out of Louisville, KY?
MediVoxx
Yes...there is an entire thread regarding them at the bottom of the page if you have the time to read it. Their pay is not the best, but they do work with you, pay on time, etc. I've worked for them for 2 years now. Have had raises. I also have a private account on the side I work.
MediVoxx
I spoke with the main office yesterday and one of the QA staff members told me there was new accounts coming on board within the next month. Keep me posted and good luck!
MediVoxx
Hi Angela..Good luck with MediVoxx! I truly like the company and although I do make more money on the second account I have picked up, I have stayed with MediVoxx because of the ability to pick up more lines, the QA staff and the easy to use software.
I printed the paperwork and faxed it to the main office. Of course, that was two years ago so I am sure they have changed how they do things. Good luck and keep me posted please with your success!
Medivoxx
Does anybody know anything about Medivoxx? I have an interview with them next Monday. Any information would be helpful.
MediVoxx
MediVoxx. You start out at low pay if you are inexperienced. But you earn higher pay quickly. Since you're already experienced, you'd probably start higher. Have you ever worked for them?
MediVoxx
I work for MediVoxx, I'm proud to say. Go to their website and give them a try. Great team of professionals.

A MT friend said she didn't go with them because their work was VR. Is this true? I don't think I would feel comfortable with that, would be different. Thanks......
MediVoxx
They do send VR files but I just x them out and start from scratch. Voila! I don't find the VR files helpful at all. I do get to use a lot of templates (or boilermakers) though and that helps. Lots of times I have a decent line count before even starting. lol.
Medivoxx
I hear their starting pay is 5 cpl. ??????? I'm working on their practice tape now. Seems simple enough.
Thanks again.
MediVoxx
They start low because they take a chance on newbies. I rose pretty quickly to a higher rate though. They also give quarterly bonuses that are none too shabby!
Medivoxx
Sounds fair enough, as I have come across so many companies that won't even give me the time of day. I suppose this is where I'll have to start. The longer I am going without work, the more I feel like I am getting 'rusty'....Got to take their practice 'doc' tape today, will see how goes. Thanks again Michele.
:o)
Medivoxx
Well I have officially applied with Medivoxx today. Did the online sample transciption file, then submitted a resume. I will keep you posted. If that doesn't pan out I have one other company that is hiring around Dec 17th, so I'll check back w/them again as well. Thanks for all the help and info.
Medivoxx
I am not learing that Medivoxx sends VR files, what I am not clear on, do we actually transcribe these files or simply look at the VR files and simply edit them? I had one MT friend tell me that is why she didn't apply with them is because it was an editing position only.
Medivoxx Pay
Is there anyone out there who can tell me what type of raises Medivoxx gives their employees if they are still hiring at .05/line? I am leary of taking a job that pays so low to begin, although I desperately need to get my foot in the door. How difficult are the quarterly bonuses to achieve? Are raises based on quality/quantity of work or are they scheduled? Thanks for any help you can give me.
Chris
Medivoxx Pay
Medivoxx used to start at three and a half cents per line and then after moving up to one pass editor, you would receive five cents per line. (I think after 30 days.)
Bonuses are 48,000 lines and above achieved every three months. First quarter ends March 31 and although I am short on making the 48,000 lines this time, I have done it before.
I have worked for Medivoxx for several years now. The pay isn't the greatest; however, I receive my checks on time, have a QA team that helps and always have work when I am scheduled.
I started with them fresh out of correspondence school in 2004. Hope this helps!
Medivoxx Pay
Thank you so much for your response. Can you also tell me whether or not there are any benefit provided by them, as I just received the Transcriptionist/Editor job description from them, and it states that they do not offer a "formal" benefit package at this time. Is there no health insurance or PTO?
Thank you.
Chris
MediVoxx hires new MTs
Go to their website and take the online test. Good luck!
Does anyone work for MediVoxx?
NM
I have a phone interview with Medivoxx next Tuesday.
Any info on what to expect during this phone interview is much appreciated. Do you feel that there is a good chance for hire since I made it to this point with them?? Thanks!
Does anyone know how long it takes for tests to be graded at MediVoxx or OSI?
I recently tested at both companies and am beginning to wonder how long this process takes. While I am waiting for their replies, if anyone could tell me of other corporations that hire new MTs I would appreciate it.
Test with MediVoxx, SOAP Transcription, MQ, Spheris, Focus. nm

OSI pretty quick, MediVoxx pretty strange
I've applied to both. For OSI, I scored a few points too low to start, but was invited to retest in six months. For MediVoxx, it took about a week for them to get back with me and let me know I tested well. That led to several other things (confidentiality agreement, their company info, a personal telephone interview with an offer to test for QA after I downloaded software from their site). There was a seven digit code to actually activate that software to enable me to test for QA, which would be the final step in the pre-employment process. But, they never gave me that code and did not respond to any emails about it. It was if - POOF - they were gone!
I don't know what that was all about, maybe a recruiter problem and not a company problem. MediVoxx seems like a really nice and well put together company otherwise.
No one I've ever tested with otherwise took near as long to respond, though.
Good luck to you. You will find something. Don't give up.
