Current Assistmed info - me

Posted: May 26, 2013

Can anyone give me some current info on how it is to work for Assistmed? How is training? Is it easy to learn the software?

Someone posted before that the line counting is not accurate - and comes out too low. NM

it is the same pretty much. They have their own platform which always causes trouble. training is mediocre at best. communication is next to nil. pay is low. QA is inconsistent. Lots of ESL. Mostly VR. you are thrown into a pool with many, many other MTs all trying to make their lines. Lots of "cherry picking" going on in order to achieve those lines. Too many MTs and not enough work. Playing favorites. Team lead gets all the good jobs. Lines counted "differently" than one would expect with no explanation. but pay is always on time.
give them a try....YOU may like it. Good luck.

Pot stirrer. No cherry picking at MM, not possible. - TL dont MT at MM. Can see who SM

has jobs, and it is not TL. Fluency is very easy to monitor lines ct. Pick a short job and count each character if you want, it will be spot on.

whatever but - not talking about

MM, talking about Assistmed. Meant always nja, too many MTs and not enough work. never said cherry pickin at MM, but assistmed run "pretty much the same" as MM. and line count there (assistmed) is always different. get your facts straight.... assistmed....not MM. stir your own pot.

Not talking about MM??? Then just who are *the other - 2 big ones??? nm

Current Info AssistMed - IC

[ In Reply To ..]
I currently work at AssistMed. The platform is not difficult to learn. The person in charge of training is very hands on and helpful. I have never had an issue with line counting being low. It is true that there are ESLs, but if you can't learn to transcribe for an ESL dictator then you are in the wrong business. As far as mostly VR, I do straight trans and no VR. You are assigned accounts with the same dictators so that it is easy to become familiar with those accounts. I have plenty of work and have never had a problem with line counts.

Thanks everyone! nm - me

Is there enough work during 3rd shift? Is the platform easy to use and easy to get your lines in with? How is the health insurance? I saw the premiums for the different levels but didn't see what type of coverage this is (deductible, copays, etc.). I'm a bit worried that your benefits hinge on getting your required lines in each pay period. I can see where this would be a problem if there was a shortage of work (the situation at my current job). Any thoughts would be appreci ...
