Focus Informatics.....sm

Has anyone heard anything about or work for Focus Informatics? If so are they a good company to work for? Thanks ...

Wondering if anyone has applied recently to Focus. A couple of months ago I had tested and went through that whole process successfully when the recruiter sent me an email with the minimum computer requirements; operating system 32 bit, XP or VISTA, 1 GB RAM, 1 GHZ processor, etc. It was the 32-bit system that was the killer (mine was larger). When I went to see about purchasing said computer, I could not find one as a 32-bit is an older out-of-date system. Then I checked out E-Bay, ema ...

besides Freddie Martins' number? His is the only number I have and I have emailed him a couple of times and called one time, but no response back yet. I was hired with Focus and supposed to be starting hopefully the 9th, but I have not gotten a response from sending in my I-9 form or the other forms they were supposed to send me. Was thinking maybe something unexpected happened with Freddie for him to be out and may need to contact someone else for now? But no contac ...

I have my AA in HIT and have my RHIT and I'm looking at the WGU program to get my RHIA. Has anyone taken or in this program? I see that this program has a lot of computer courses and computer certifications. I'm kind of worried about that part as I've never been good with computers and have a hard time retaining computer knowledge. Any experience with this program? ...

I am getting out of MT and looking into the Health Informatics program. I have a 2 year degree in HIT, but my problem is I don't know where to look for a bachelor's degree in Healthcare Informatics. When I research online I find only master's degrees in informatics or other universities require you to have an RN degree or IT degree. I saw someone post here that they were getting their bachelor's degree in Informatics but cannot find that post. Anyone k ...

Just curious if anyone knows about the Health Informatics 4-year degree that WGU offers? I want to change careers to healthcare IT and have been looking into this program. Thanks ...

I keep seeing health informatics jobs and a lot of my former MT co-workers are going back to school for this. Ok so my stupid question is, what exactly is this? ...

I am learning that this most complicated business of healthcare, in going tech, is trying to basically 'get rid of humans' (what a lecturer actually said) involved in the process of the EHR. he talked about free text being part of mistakes and cost, and to me that means probably reducing or eliminating altogether dictation and rather having templates that a provider will just fill in or check off - or have someone do it, but not an MT. this is just my opinion now, but think about it. ...

I am thinking about going into health informatics. I've been looking at the program through WGU. Through their program, you complete your CCA credential before graduation. You would also qualify for your RHIA certification when you graduate. They state that a CCS or CCA credential will satisfy the coding courses in the program. Would it be better to do the coding portion of the informatics degree through a program that prepares you to pass the CCS and CPC (like Andrews) or would you know ad ...

None of the colleges in an hour's radius of me offer this program. Can this be done online and if so, has anybody done it? ...

Is there anyone here who has gotten the B.S. in Health Inforamatics at Western Governor's University? Or is there anyone who is currently going to WGU to get this degree? If so, can you tell me about the program, how you like it, etc? The only thing that holds me back is the pass/fail grading system and transferring credits to other schools. ...

I can file my nails while my screens change and the voice document loads. Does anyone share this problem. I have a dual core processor with 1.86 Ghz. Thanks! ...

Hello Everybody. First, let me say I have gotten a lot of good advice from this board in the past few years. I have been encouraged to go back to school, am currently enrolled in Andrews for coding, and am looking to the future to obtain a degree to further advance myself in the field. I am very strongly considering WGU's Informatics course. I think this will be a good fit for me, especially considering this program also includes many IT certifications and I have always been ...

Please let me know if there is anyone out there pleased with focus? I need to find a real job, not one that has no work! HELP!! ...

If you currently work FT with Focus could you share approximately or average of your gross montly income from Focus is. I am wondering if it is worthwhile to apply. I currently work as an IC and average $2000-2400 a month, which is fine but I have no benefits. I would like to have a FT job that provides insurance and PTO time but do not want to lose a chunk of my current income. Are you able to make what I currently do being FT? Thanks in advance for your input. You can priv ...

I worked for them previously and would love to to again. Any contacts on this board? ...

I have been working at Focus now for 2 weeks. I think everyone is nice. All my QAs have seemed fair except today one QA (and only this one) counts off for blanks. Well the team lead said you are not penalized for blanks when I hired on. She said you won't be dinged for blanks. Well so far I haven't had a QA to ding me for a blank, but today, as I said, one went to town on my reports and dinged for every single one I sent in. My team lead isn't o ...

Has anyone gotten their W-2 from Focus yet? ...

There is such LOUD Indian-type music blaring in the background? That is all I can hear. The doctor is mumbling away and all I hear is Ooooohhhhhh, la le laaa, la le laaaaaa, la le laaaahha ha, ohoohohohOOOOOO, lo leeee luuu, loooo le luuuu. HELP! ...

Recently I had the benefit of hearing someone speak on where our focus lies. It wasn't a talk about employment at all, but I started thinking about it today as I read through the posts on this board. The jest of the talk was that if you focus on the negative you'll be grouchy, have more pain, be less productive, and generally be miserable. If your focus is on the positive, though, suddenly you're happy in spite of miserable circumstances. I was hoping with this forum ...

What do you fine folks know about Focus Infomatics (sp)? What kind of platform? Thanks everyone in advance. ...

Anyone out there who is working as a QC for Focus Infomatics and making a decent living? I'm newish to this position and am struggling to make a buck. I need some comfirmation I made a good move. So far, not so good and I'm hoping I get into a better groove quick enough to move and make some decent money. Any success stories very much appreciated! ...

Could someone give me the dirt on Focus? Hours, work, supervisors, QA, workload> Thanks in advance!... ...

What does Focus Infomatics require for line count for FT and PT? How long do they allow you to come up to that? ...

My eyes do not want to focus today. I have to actually think and make them focus on my computer screen. I had to put my glasses on already today. Does anyone else have this problem ever? Is this an occupational hazard or is there something wrong with me? I do work a FT job and a PT job totalling over 60 hours a week, maybe my eyes are just extremely tired. ...

I posted this question below but fear it will be buried. To those of you just hired at Focus, how's the pay scale? I currently make 8.5 straight/4.5 editing. Is it comparable to, higher than or lower than that? I'd never ask anyone to divulge their pay scale but I'm trying to get a feel for if it's better than where I'm at. TIA to anyone willing to give me a ballpark hint here! ...

I want to apply because they said there are new accounts etc. Then, I checked the archives and as early as December, people were claiming to running out of work every day because a lot of the work goes to India. They also were told that there would be new accounts but somehow they vanished and they ended up with no work. I really want to find a good stable home with a lot of work but I am nervous now to apply. It seems a constant theme for companies to advertise NEW ACCOUNTS, HERE WE GROW AGAIN ...

Is there anyone here that currently works for Focus? I'm having a lot of trouble getting started. I'm being QA'd to death. One minute they tell me to do something and another they tell me the opposite. I'm getting frustrated and I'm sick of doing ESL work. Some are fine, don't get me wrong. But, if the speaker mumbles, slurs and just generally does not speak clearly, please do not lecture me about not understanding him. I just need fellow sufferers/workers to vent t ...

Any information would be appreciated. Let it rip . . . ...

I received an e-mail today from a recruiter at Focus Infomatics. I applied there last year and didn't meet their experience criteria but the e-mail asked me to send them an updated resume to see if I do now (and I do). I currently work for MQ and quite frankly, I could take it or leave it. I've not been impressed by MQ but I don't see a reason to leave a job I'm not fond of for another job I may like even less. Any info about them would be greatly ...
