ExText and Escription platform, as far as I know.
Great management.
If work lightens up, they will put you on another account (if possible).
They are currently expanding and are looking for top-notch MTs with at least 2 years of acute-care experience (graduates, those with less than 2 years, and MTs without acute care experience will not be considered).
Pay rate is average for IC, but you're not locked into a schedule.
How are all you alphies out there loving the new cuts? Don't ya just love not getting paid for spaces, then templates, and now headers and footers? What's next? Commas and periods? What a rip-off! I'm quitting soon. Anybody else? ...
Does anybody know if Alpha has been sold yet? An MT friend of mine was interested in working there but with it being for sale with Kruse Acquisitions and the ability for the new owner to use their own MTs she does not want to start and then be let go soon. Thanks for any info. ...

What's up at Alpha Transcription dot com in Eden Prairie, MN? The one that has the VA contracts? I heard a lot of them have quit recently. Anyone know what's going on? ...
I had posted my resume on MTJobs and was contacted by Alpha Transcription. I googled them and what do you know, they were apparently bought by Nuance. Well, I'm already at Nuance, but I want a day shift and less VR work so maybe this place will work? Anyone out there working at Alpha? Any info?? Thank you. ...
I was just wondering if anybody is working for alpha transcription. I did their testing about 2 weeks ago and am waiting to hear back from there. I think they got bought out by another company. Just curious as to opinions about this place. ...
Anyone happy with Alpha Transcription/Imedx currently? I thought about working with them but read on another MT site there's a lot of changes going on without any notice. ...
Does anybody have any info on this company? I believe they are located in Missouri? Anything would be helpful the good, the bad and the ugly! THX!! ...
Has anyone had any experience with this company? I sent my resume for a job posting and was contacted right away. The fishy thing (to me anyway) was that they didn't even want me to TEST for the position! What is that about? EVERY MT position I have EVER been a candidate for has wanted me to test. But nope, I had a phone interview and the next thing I know I am being offered a position. RED FLAG? ...
Hi, I was wondering if any of you could tell me about Alpha Transcription. Do they require set hours? Do they pay decent? How is their communication? Do they have PTO?
Thanks! ...

I am looking for information on Alpha Transcription (dot com) from Eden Prairie, MN. I would appreciate an opinion from current MTs or from the recent past. I'm hoping to find out the standard information regarding pay, required lines, what they consider a line, are spaces paid, headers and footers, et cetera.
I would appreciate any help on this and thanks in advance for sharing your information and time.

Hello fellow Alpha Transcriptionists. Did you feel the burn in your paycheck today from the donated lines we are giving them? Way to go. Kick us in the knee on top of a rotten economy. ...
Have been approached about possibly working for them. I have read in the archives about them being up for sale, MTs leaving, line discrepancies, and them no longer paying for headers, footers, etc. Does anyone have any current information? TIA ...
when I hit the search button, it just takes me to a blank screen. Not sure if it is a problem with the web site or my internet. Anyway, I was thinking I read some time ago that they did not pay for spaces or headers or footers and people were quite upset, but I might have them confused with another company. Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks. ...
Heads up everyone Stay Clear of the wackos up at Alpha Transcription! They not only pay on the VBC but don't even know what it is or how to calculate it, have HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT, are the most disorganized company any MT could possibly work for! And they forget to tell you that you have to wait 45 days for your first paycheck!
WARNING, WARNING, STAY CLEAR OF THIS COMPANY! I lasted about 2 weeks, and then had enough!
