ProScript - good experiences with them - happyaboutworking


Posted: Mar 12, 2010

Gosh, I wonder how you all have time to write so many posts?  I have worked for ProScript since January 2009 and have had nothing but good experiences with them.  The pay plan is comparable to other companies. Perhaps those complaining have not worked anywhere new in the last year or two.  The transcription industry has changed, folks… Heck, the healthcare industry in general has changed.  I think a company who will allow an existing MT 6 months to a year to be transitioned to VR at transcription rates is pretty outstanding.  We had plenty of time to become proficient with the new technology.  I worked at another company a few years back, also transitioning to VR, and I was given exactly two pay periods to get up to speed before the pay rates dropped.  Get over yourselves!  That much time on transcription rates doing VR is something no one seems to want to talk about on these boards, which is really odd.   Don't have enough work?  How is that?  The team leads are always asking for extra hands, and they are courteous about it.  No one beats you up if you don't work.  You are asked politely.  I am extremely pleased with my decision to join this company.  I have been watching these posts for the past several months in utter disbelief, just shaking my head.  My biggest question to all of you who are haters is this - why on earth do you stay?  You are under no obligation to stay anywhere that makes you this unhappy.  Be sure the grass is greener on the other side of the fence first.   Betcha you'll be surprised. Now, I have to get back to work. 

and now that we've heard from management - NM

what makes you say that?

Because anyone in the trenches and working as an MT there - - SM

- can tell you how lousy the VR is, and how it has hindered, not helped, the MTs in their production, as well as how incessant and insulting the constant flow of "outstanding work updates" from the WWOTE and her winged monkeys can be. Not to mention the fact that people who disagree with management have a tendency to disappear. Why can't ProScript hang onto trainers? The last 3 they've hired have only lasted a few days to weeks each. Probably because they were unable to sell the MTs on how wonderful and efficient the new system is, which it ain't.

It wasn't exactly a positive thing for those of us who received the "you're fired, but we've rehired you at a lower line rate and without benefits" letter a few months back, either. I suppose you think we should be grateful for that turn of events?

No, it's a very different company now from the one we used to love.

Well, I'm not in management - thanks, but no thanks. I happen to like being communicated with the leads. I am not sure about what happened to anyone other than myself and can only speak for myself, and really shouldn't you do the same? As I mentioned before, if you're not happy, best to move on. I'd be the first out the door if I felt mistreated.
Believe me, I'm on my way a.s.a.p., as are others I know here. - SM

Glad to hear you're happy there. That's 3 happy folks I've talked to out of how many? May it continue that way for you. (But watch your back; they'll turn on you on a dime. Trust me on that.)

I'm not worried, but thanks for the advice.

Some of us have been with PS way longer than you...sm - Kiddin?

and we know what good place it WAS to work when we were respected EMPLOYEES. You can call it what you want, but among their other sins, their software STINKS!

What I'd like to know is this: Why does there - have to be a S/M

reduction in CPL with VR? Why can't EVERYONE working at the company do better in life? We are still using the same skills as transcriptionists. Besides the obvious answer, which is company greed, I wish someone could explain this. I actually enjoy transcribing, actual typing, but I accept that we must keep up with technology and VR to continue in this profession. WHY CAN'T I HAVE A CHANCE TO DO BETTER FINANCIALLY?

because............... - see inside

the VR software vendors have to give the clients an incentive to buy the VR software from them.

So they promise the clients heaven on earth:

twice as fast TAT
half of cpl
etc...

Did not materialize.

So the bigwigs are still making the big - bucks then? SM

[ In Reply To ..]
The clients (hospitals, etc) pay less per line, and that is passed on to the MTs? Upper management still fat and happy.

Anyone who can make sense from the PS VR platform is a bold faced liar..sm - sm

It is pure garbage. I just want to wipe it out and type it.

AMEN. nm - me2

I agree. I could transcribe the majority of these reports quicker than editing them. Some of them are absolutely horrible and need numerous corrections. I don't mind the editing, but at least make the pay comparable to the amount of editing we have to do. I will be out of this field of work in just a few years and cannot wait!

Yeah, it would be different if the editing were minimal, but it's not. (SM) - sm

It's more like every other word, at best, and management won't admit just what a horrible job VR does, so we end up getting shafted.

It is seriously frustrating as heck. I only wish I could get out of this field sooner. On a side note, everyone from PS has been absolutely wonderful to me. I just hate to have to search for another job since my production is darn near nil. It's such a shame. I absolutely loved transcription.
