Has anyone ever applied to Patient First and, if so, how is this company to work for?  TIA

I worked for a MT company that had PT First as one of their accounts. All they did was complain. They used so many abbreviations to save money (a list that they invented and I had to learn) that it was like typing in short hand. I saw they started hiring on their own. I wouldn't go near them for anything!

Patient First Transcription
Dec 02, 2013

Warning for MTs interested in Patient First Transcription.   Beware...  This is a very difficult company to work for.  First, the platform is extremely difficult as it is working in DOS.  Second, the management team is extremely critical and not employee friendly.  They do not give constructive feedback, again, very critical, even during training period.  Hours are in dispute constantly.   In short, really think about working on a DOS-based system (lines decrea ...

If the client profile makes no mention of patient name (yes or no) being left in the report, account does not specify verbatim, is the ADHI/JCAHO directive to type the patient's name or replace with "the patient?"  Just checkin'.  Am paranoid about everything with the audits these days.  ...
