They have a big banner ad about how they are now partnering - with Career Step. nm

a lot of companies partner with a school - since there is federal money for it

Since the Dept of Labor changed the status of transcription to one where an internship was allowed and encouraged, there are federal funds to supplement MTSOs for their new hires. In order to do that, the new hires need to come through an approved school. There is supposed to be a guarantee that you will earn minimum wage during your initial hire phase with that federal money. Lots of folks are hoping on that bandwagon.

Has Anyone Ever Gone Through Allied School For Coding? Other School Recommendations?
Jun 24, 2014

I was wondering if anyone has ever gone through Allied School in California for billing & coding.  If so, how was your experience?  Were you able to find work in coding after finishing the course and getting your certification?  I have been a medical transcriptionist for the past 10-11 years and am now looking at getting into coding.  My best friend and I are going to take a course together.   If you wouldn't recommend Allied as a school, who would you reco ...

Encompass Or Probity-does Anybody Ever Hear Back From Them?!

I tested with both and know I did well (lots of experience with this stuff) but have heard nothing back from Probity and got a letter of interest from Encompass, which I responded to, then NADA. Has anyone actually been able to move forward recently with getting a job at either place?! I noticed the only real problem I've seen regarding Encompass in the archives is their inability to get back to people in a timely way and I am seeing that in action. Anybody? ...

Fiesa Quality Software? Any Companies Besides Encompass Using This Yet?
Nov 03, 2010

Something new that's being instituted since our recent acquisition by Nuance, so maybe Focus is using it already?  Looks like a way to get even pickier about QA, in my opinion, which our incentives are based upon.  I've been really happy about the way Encompass has done QA up until this time.  While the requirement is really high (99% minimum, 99.5% for incentive bonus), the way they add all the lines together first and then average out from there is totally logical, un ...


Coding School - Considering Going To A School
Sep 22, 2011

I am an MT who is considering going to school for coding.  I am thinking about taking the course through Andrews and will probably start next year because I will have to save up some of the money.  I am wondering if you think coding may eventually go the way of medical transcription and be outsourced to India.  I do not think it will so I just wanted to get the opinions of other coders.  I realize it will be a hard course but I think it will be worth the effort.  Any thoughts would be appre ...
