If you had the choice - just wondering

I found a company called Physicians Choice Transcription Service (PCTSI) which says they take newbies but you pay them money weekly as a payroll deduction. You start out paying them $100/week. Does anyone know anything about this kind of service? I've been looking for work for weeks and have seen several places want "start up costs" in the thousands, but never a place that takes $100 a week from your pay when you work for them. http://www.pcts1.com/Employment.htm Has it ...

I work 7 days a week because I WANT to and I like the money I make doing that. I have a daily personal goal that far exceeds what MTSO expects. I resent that I have to share my lines with on-and-off IC who just pops in whenever. Expecially when they pop in at the end of a pay period trying to get all their lines in 3 days. The MTSO knows when I am going to log on and she knows she can count on me. I should not have to share MY lines with an irresponsible sometimes IC. ...

any info good or bad appreciated. Thank you ...

If you are considering being a transcriptionist, do not waste your time, it is career suicide. There is no money in this field of work anymore and it is all going over seas where the people are paid practically nothing. ...

Hello fellow MTs, In July, the only Acute Care Hospitals left in my area have been taken over by Nuance. Everything in my area has been taken over, as the rest of the country. Basically, only the BIG GUYS are left anymore. They are eating up the rest of the smaller transcription companies. I have been a transcriptionist since the age of 21, back in the typewriter days. I am now going to be 54 and have to stick it out until hopefully 60s. I worked for MedQuist a few years ba ...

I know this is beating a dead horse, but-- I'm seeing a slight increase in my pay. It's not as high as it used to be, but not as low as it recently was. Work is sometimes low enough that I'm almost having to log in first thing in the morning and log out before I go to bed to get the line count in, but I've heard it's going to get better. I've got an offer from another company that I have heard is not problem-free either. I just don't know. You know the old say ...

Hi, I hope you don't mind a visitor from the outside I'm here because I need to change careers. I'm 59 , female, single, and have done one career all my life which has been clinical social work/mental health counseling. I'm burned out with this career and alot has indicated that medical transcription might suit me. Where do I begin? What training do I need? Do I need training at all? (this may sound dumb) What schools are the best? Online versus ...

Please email me privately about this. It is best for all of us. I have a couple of offers on my table and I need advice about which to take. Global in Texas, GIS. Transolutions. Transform. Transcend.

Does anyone know anything about these two companies (work atmosphere, size of company, pay on time, etc., any helpful information)? I noticed that Clear Choice has openings for editors, but I'm wondering if they're QA editor or VR editor positions. From the pay rate advertised, I'm thinking VR editors. Thanks in advance for any information anyone can provide. ...

I was just wondering from anyone who has taken the CCS exam recently, is the whole exam multiple choice? I ask because I am taking the Andrews course and using the AHIMA-published workbooks and they are all multiple choice. I use a different skill set when doing these questions, work my way backward with deductive reasoning, reading the question and looking up each answer, eliminating the wrong ones. This seems faster to me and I want to work as fast as I can on the test. ...

I get a mix of SRE and transcribing jobs, with - of course - half line rate for SRE. I have no idea who is "allowed" to dictate to the SRE platform for my company, but I can say that it's mighty strange that the worst dictators seem to predominate - and hence, you get a constant stream of SRE documents requiring very heavy editing. Not infrequently, I get documents that are such garbage from beginning to end that there aren't three consecutive words that make any sense anywhere in th ...

Wondered if anyone knew if this is a legit company. Are they good to work for? ...

I have recently seen several ads posted for Clear Choice Transcription. I see that now they are seeking new grads for these positions. I personally always like to know if there are red flags, etc. before I accept an offer. I felt the need to share my experience with the company. There is one manager who basically runs the show. Myself and a friend were both completely bullied by her for doing nothing short of trying to learn our job. If questions are asked, there are very abrasive an ...

I was reading through the archives, and someone said that they were affiated with Davis Transcription, which was a scam company. Is this true, or is Clear Choice okay to work for? Do they pay on time? Sorry to ask again, but I'd like to know before I make the wrong decision. ...

Is there anyone currently working for Clear Choice Transcription? If so, what is it like now - good or bad? Just wondering as I have read all of the old posts, but nothing newer is showing up and they have advertised with more work available. ...

Wow, it doesnt' say on the website that MTs aren't eligible for Choice Plus and can only get the HRA plan. What a huge disappointment to work 90 days and find that out. I am super bummed... ...

I was hired over a month ago. It took three weeks to get all the info needed to start. I was to do online training over the phone, which I did. Unfortunately the person who trained us went so fast I was lost. I started, had a ton of questions, which I asked. I never got any answers other than one where I was told to follow instructions. Yes I knew to do that. So I get an email saying I am having a hard time (ya think it could be because the trainer did n ...

Is anyone familiar with Clear Choice? Any information would be appreciated. I understand they pay by the minute of dictation, a dollar a minute after release from QA. I'm wondering if their platform allows for a good line count and how the company treats the employees. ...
