Gulf Coast Transcription what is happening - sm


Posted: Dec 28, 2014

Could a current employee tell me what is happening with this company?  Work dwindled to nothing and there was talk of acquiring new accounts, but I had to jump ship before that happened.  This was a wonderful place to work and I am just wishing and dreaming.  Have they picked up any new accounts and are they still in business?  Thank you.

was gonna hire on a few years back cos pay was awesome - always thankful I went in another direction cos I think they are no longer around?

They have a toll-free number listed on their website. Best way - to find out is to all them. See msg

They may not have any MTs that visit this site if they are still in business and may not do any advertising.

I know the company I work for does not advertise and is never mentioned on this site. They only way to find out if they are still in business is to call.

I am wondering as well. I worked there...SM - me inAL

for a year or two and loved it. Very good company. Then they started laying people off about a year ago (or letting us go, I should say, I was an IC) and I kept in touch for awhile asking if there was more work, but it never happened. I still see a couple of my supervisors on IM but haven't asked. Very curious now!

Very Worried About Gulf Coast Transcription
Jul 06, 2013

They have terminated some office/administrative people and now have eliminated weekend incentives and given pay CUTS to transcriptionists.  Work is nearly non-existent.  At the beginning of the summer they said it was a temporary slow down and would pick up shortly.  Instead it seems to be getting worse.  Anyone know anything?? I really really like this company and hate to see this happening. ...

Aug 19, 2013

Someone asked about them and I am bringing it back up to the top.  One person said it all now VR, another said they saw their only account in the "Nuance pool."  I don't get it.  First of all, what is a Nuance Pool?  I work for them and although work has slowed down, if Nuance was now contracting, wouldn't the work be completely gone?  Also as for all VR, it's about half and half.  We are hoping the summer slow down will end soon and work will pick up ...


Gulf Coast Transcription - Nearing The End?
Dec 19, 2013

It appears that Gulf Coast has either severely cut the hours, or laid off most of their IC transcriptionists.  I was laid off.  This was a nice company to work for, and I would really feel bad for them, but they told us things that just weren't true since last summer when they started losing work.  Plus they appeared to deny the rumors on this website back in September.  Then we got a really nasty email from the main supervisor a couple months ago all about how they were ...

Has anyone tested with them? Here's their testing process if you're interested......it's a hoot! I got a Word document which asked me to supply the correct spellings. The auto-correct feature already did this for me when I opened the document, so that was a no-brainer. There were questions in which I had to choose the correct way to word a paragraph, etc. There was one that was especially troubling to me, it required me to choose the correct paragraph and it listed several ...

Do You Thing There Is A Turnabout Happening In Transcription
Jul 19, 2013

Just curious if anyone is starting to see a trickle of companies taking back their transcription from the MTSO? I am starting to see some places who once outsourced bring it back in house. No hospitals, unfortunately, but the smaller to medium medical groups, afraid of the liability of having their medical records roaming all over India. I know of an HR person at a large group of clinics here who told me they are bringing it all back in house because of liability and HIPPA issues. They pay $20.0 ...

Dec 31, 2013

This is exciting, you guys!  Our local NPR station (where I work full time) is planning to air an hour-long radio cast about the effects of the electronic medical records implementation on our MT careers.  I was telling our producer that I worked for 27 years as a full-time MT, both in the clinic/hospital setting and at home, but 5 years ago I could no longer make it financially as a full-time MT.  That's when I went to work in the public sector doing something unrelated to t ...

The docs and management brought in VR, and now there are too many MTs and not enough work.   Our workflow went from hundreds of jobs with overtime on a regular basis to barely anything left to type.  The company for which I work is not an MTSO, but a fiirm with local clinics, plus docs doing reports for other clinics/hospitals.  Luckily, we MTs work at home and are fortunate to get paid hourly, so during our slow times, we can either take PTO (if we have it) or wait for more ...

(Cannot remember the exact name it is called).   A lot of Providence Cinics and hospitals use it.  When  you go in for a clinic visit, a ...
