Anyone apply for American Health Connection as posted on MT Jobs? - Looking


Posted: May 18, 2013

I have not yet. Any insights are appreciated. TIA.

Looks to be a call center job that doesn't have a thing - to do with transcription. NM

must have excellent credit score I believe - scoutMT

...that is what I remember. mine is not so good since the last couple of years in MT.

With the non-paying MTSOs around, seems like it should be the MTs nm - asking for a credit check

pfooey

My credit score sucks and I got an offer from - this company.

There are several fairly recent posts about them. If you do a search they should come up.

They scared me off because they don't cover some of the most basic stuff in the hiring process, like pay schedules and some people posted that you have to purchase additional supplies after you work for them a few weeks.

They were super nice but seemed VERY disorganized and perhaps liked to micromanage a bit more than I'm comfortable with.

same here with my interview with them - very disorganized

They could not even tell me how much the job paid and when pressed further (which is a big red flag if you have to press someone to give you the starting pay), they finally came up with a pay range, but I already knew I wasn't going to take the job after having to pressure them into telling me how much it paid. Not the way to handle a potential employee in my opinion.

I work for this great company. All I had to buy was a headset that was less than $75. They do have a requirement for the speed of your internet. This is so you are able to use the voice-over protocol.

American Health Connection Review
Apr 03, 2013

American Health Connection has posted for staff/agent jobs on MTDaily and MT Stars.  They are very pleasant people with whom to work for sure.  The trend these days is to outsource hospital patient registration and companies such as this are taking off big time.  Having started training with them, I have had nothing but trouble...at first I was told my bandwidth was fine, only to learn that I needed 40-50 download speed and at least 10 upload speed.  Had to switch to a new provider, however, ...

Ahconn Or American Health Connection
Jan 15, 2015

American Health Connection or Ahconn has no business trying to recruit professional transcriptionists for their virtual call center.  That is all it is.  Furthermore, there are other problems, like your inability to care about these patients whom you engage, their problems are not your problems, so in the event they need your help and you can or try to help, they will reprimand you.  They are not clear on your duties until it is too late and your job is in jeopardy.  Manageme ...


American Health Connection - Be Aware
Feb 09, 2015

I was hired by American Health Connection as a patient scheduler. I was sent an offer letter which I signed and then an email came with several forms to complete. Once had to be notarized, so I mailed everything back priority rate. Then, another email came with more attachments. Within those attachments, was a training reimbursement agreement that I was required to sign that said that if I quit the job prior to 6 months on the job I would have to pay $2,500 to the company. I have never in my lif ...

American Health Connections And Others
Apr 18, 2014

It never ceases to amaze me, in an absurd kind of way, how companies can place job ads for positions and ask for bilingual/foreign language to be a major qualification here in the US of A!!  This is an English-speaking country, and I resent the fact that these companies can make these requirements on us who are US citizens and English is our first language!  They want our expertise in work ethics, but we need to learn their language in order to apply for a job with them; how ...


Can No Longer Download Jobs Via Dial-up Connection

I have been working successfully for Softscript for the past 5 years via a dial-up internet connection.  Recently, I have been having trouble downloading jobs; i.e., I can't do it.  The tech person I have been working with there says that my computer is fine - it is just that dial-up is outdated - "no one expects anyone to have a dial-up connection any more". I don't understand how it can be working one day and not the next.  Anybody have any ideas, fixes, etc.  I ...

I've decided it is in my best interest to stop applying for jobs. This last one I thought I had a chance on dissolved very quickly and I have no clue. I took their test and I know I did well on it but they never contacted me even though they said after I took their test they reviewed it they wanted to talk to me about it. It has been very detrimental to me to take these rejections when I know I do well on the tests. I can't take it anymore. I get so angry and cry all the time. I& ...

on their website, but after going through 2 weeks of red tape for a QA job being told they are all filled.  The recruiter says, "oh, we are just waiting for background checks on the other posts."  Really, it takes 2 weeks to check background on one person.  Obviously, they do not understand the stress and time involved in going through their ridiculous process and red tape, and then 2 weeks to a month later, still nothing, BUT THE JOB POSTS ARE STILL THERE.

Afro-American Versus African-American

Afro pertains to a "hair style" usually worn by black people or African-Americans. African-American refers to a group or nationality of people whose decendants originated in Africa.

This is a ligitmate question. How do you type it? or do you think it matters? ...

tell me how that works?  I know the insurance premiums are less than a regular health plan.  If your  company puts 500 in your account, does that mean the first few times, for example, until you use up the 500, you don't pay ANYTHING or is it the opposite...you pay the entire office visit cost until you reach that 500?  I would be so grateful for any information about this type of plan.  TIA ...
