Another question about Landmark - tired out MT

Posted: Nov 16, 2009

Do they hire ICs or is everyone there an employee? They sound wonderful and I may be looking soon, depending on what happens where I am now. I just do not want to be an employee. Thanks very much!

I just looked at Landmark's site and they hire both employee and ICs. Unfortunately, at this time they are only looking for acute care and I prefer clinic. Oh well, as many are doing these days, I will keep looking and hoping. (Sigh)

I worked there as an IC for a short time. The problem I had with them is that they scrutinized every report on everybody regardless of how long they have been there. I have been an MT over 15 years and this was a first. That is probably why they were always behind, if they would put more of the scrutinizers to work, they would have had less difficulty with TAT.

Thanks, that is something I do not need. nm - tired out MT

They only do that at the beginning - Happy MT Robin

When I started with them, yes, 100% of my work went through QA. It was very helpful to me so I knew what things they specifically looked for. That only lasted for a couple of months, though, and now the only stuff that goes to QA is the ones that I send to them.

Different companies have different procedures, of course, but I didn't find this one onerous or off putting in any way.

After the flurry of posts on this board this week regarding Landmark and then doing more research on my own in the archives on Landmark, I have decided to move on. I am an employee of Landmark also. I believe where there is smoke, there is fire to follow. I have not seen what others are saying, but the lack of communication I have experienced and I am a person who do not only talk the talk, but walk the walk. So, I am finding another job and I suggest everyone on th ...

For anyone who works at Landmark, I was just wondering how long is the norm for being on 100% QA? I've exceed my 90-day period and am still on 100% QA. Most of my reports come back clean with exception of a period or an a/an, or something simple along those lines. ...

Does anyone know if the job ad Landmark posted recently (oncology) is a new account for them? I have read on here so many posts about how the MTs there say they don't have enough work and was wondering if this account is a new one so there actually would be work to do? I would like to apply but don't want to waste my time if there isn't enough work in the first place. Thanks for your help. ...

Landmark posting for radiology jobs? I work for them and barely have any work. Please look at the people you already have hired before you hire more. That's why people don't stay. I'd love to work there full time, but this has become my part time, back up account because I'm making so little money. So frustrating. Who else is working there currently for radiology? I'd love to hear from you. ...

Have any of you others out there gotten your W-2 from them yet? Thanks!! ...

I just saw an ad on the job seeker's board for Landmark stating they are hiring for VR because their account is switching to VR. Does anyone know if this is across the board for Landmark? Are they totally switching to VR altogether? Or just one certain account? I am worried because personally I hate VR and rather enjoy the straight typing I do for them. Thanks in advance! ...

is pretty much a bitch-fest, at least it is some sort of contact with other MTs... oh excuse me... MLS. I have never worked at a place where there was so little contact, no feedback, no sense of teamwork. Yes, too much oversight with TLs hovering over you is oppressive and you may say... that's okay, I'd like that, just leave me alone to do my work... but really, it's tough to feel totally isolated, anyone agree? ...

I worked for Landmark a while ago. Sorry for all the problems the current MTs are having. Have the owners come up with a solution about the insurance issue? Just a thought, but you might try calling your local state representative's office and asking about COBRA and/or an insurance plan run by your state that covers children. You may also have a county agency that can give you information about insurance coverage. Of note, the COBRA payment is usually the ent ...
