How are things at Axolotl since the buyout? nm

Considering making a move to this company. Spoke with owner and she sounds delightful. Just wondering if anyone has any info on the company...anything at all! Thank you! ...

A question for you previous buyout MTs. How long is it usually when Nuance buys out a company and the official switchover is made before Nuance changes the platform? ...

I don't know what is going on and as usual the communication sucks, but I'm more than a little concerned. ...

I know they were bought out a few years ago but I heard through the grapevine United Health was getting rid of the whole transcription department is being let go this year. So sorry for those who will be affected if its true. ...

In past months I have read on this board, with dismay, so many posts about long-time MQ MTs/MEs failing consecutive audits, and eventually being discharged. I think it is a major coincidence that so many employees are suddenly and consistently failing to meet the same quality standards they always met. I think it’s a flimsy contrivance to get rid of the more highly paid employees and replace them with cheaper newbies while avoiding an age discrimination actions because those higher-paid pe ...

Speaking of changes. Ba-Ba-Big Ch-Ch-Changes are coming. CBay is trying to buy 100% of MQ. Check out article at: http://investing.businessweek.com/research/stocks/news/news.asp?ticker=MEDQ:US Other articles of interest there also. Basically reads: Management Led Buyout of MedQuist Causes Shareholder Claim Investigation by Goldfarb Branham Law Firm LLP DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 7, 2011-- Goldfarb Branham LLP is investigating whether the Board of Directors of Medqui ...

The hospital I work for went with an MTSO that doesn't offshore last year. They were adamant about not using one that did. After many months, they are still not on the MTSO's platform but now the MTSO has been bought out by a company that does offshore. No one is getting any information regarding what is going on. If the client you are working for did not want to go off shore and the MTSO they are using was bought out by one that does, did the cli ...

Thanks Webmedx for selling out and now keep us waiting for what seems a million years to hear about our job security, our pay, our PTO, our 401k, and on and on. Just wish they thought this out first and kept us informed instead of their usual secrecy on the whole issue. We were notifed right before the July 4 holiday, we would hear soon and well no news......I for one am not very productive as I am up and down popping ulcer remedies in my mouth wondering what is happening..... ...

How will a hospital or clinic, who did not solicit MM for business, but were part of a buyout, work with MM? I don't understand? I doubt the clinics and hospitals will accept any electronic change from MM, they have their own and working fine. Is there something I am missing here? Usually folks solicit work from MM, but this is just the opposite, almost MM steppin' into the shoes of working with an acquired client who was not part of any negotiation, and may be resentful of even change ...

Could somebody give me some info on these two companies, i.e., pay, benefits, work flow steadiness, management, etc.? Thank's in advance! ...

I wouIld like to know what your opinion is on M-modal. Do you like it or not? Is it helpful to you? Are you being nit-picked to death about it? ...

There were positive posts about them in the past. Don't know where they advertise when they do hire. ...

They had layoffs a few months back. Wondering if the transcription dept. is completely gone now or not. ...

What's up at Axolotl these days? Are you guys still on the job? ...

I do not believe there is a buyout, but maybe these facts can shed some light. Take a look at the com pg at the 3rd shift or which ever shift is working around 2 or 3 AM. Lots of work in lots of accounts, but almost all gone when the regular day shift comes on in the morning. As I recall some time back Webmedx was hiring MTs for their so-called SWAT team and it was for those late night shifts. I believe the job was advertised as $19.00 per hour for outside (new hires) and as I recall for ...

Okay, everybody breathe! It will be okay. They didn't close the doors so we still have jobs. I know the posts are very negative about Medquist, but they have a lot of people working for them who stay working for them. There must be something positive about medquist. Does anyone have anything POSITIVE to say about Mediquist? ...

The ugly squid has reared its head again! MQ acquired Alltype as of 9/1/11 and then proceeded to ship every single AT account and ALL work to India. I know this for a fact. Guess what, surprise surprise, we all got pink slips yesterday!!!!! Run for your life if you work for a company that gets bought out by MQ-the suits at MQ are unscrupulous and greedy! ...

Does anyone remember the date we officially switched from Transcend employees to Nuance? If anyone was an original MDI employee, do you remember the date Transcend purchased MDI? ...

Is it only me or is anyone else losing serious money here? for the past 6 months I have NOT been able to make more than 950 dollars a month take-home. now with the new program my pay is even less. Please, is this happening to anyone else or am I being singled out. no matter what I do I cannot make more than 220 to 250 dollars a week in may paycheck, and am onily getting paid twice a month. I am short about 6 hours with mmodal now. IS IT JUST ME they are doing this to? ...

Hi--have seen mixed opinions about Axolotl from this board, especially lately. Considering switching from my current company as the M-Modal is awful and line count is suffering a lot because of it. What I'd like to know is: - Does Axolotl have an incentive plan based on lines produced? - Are full time employees required to work 40 hours a week and stick to a set-in-stone schedule, and are you required to work a weekend day? - Is there plenty of work to go around and i ...

Recently started with Axolotl (now part of United Health Group). I have 18 years experience and the account they put me on has to be THE WORST I have ever experienced, 99.9% horrible ESL's, on top of which their M*Modal platform is very, very slow. I have worked at other companies using M*Modal and did not find this to be the case with them. This account is VR and they pay by the hour because apparently the dictators and platform are so bad, an MT can't make any money by the line. Also ...

I was one of the DSG people who woke up one day to find that we were now M-Modal employees. I declined the M-Modal offer, but was on the new payroll for just a couple of days....wouldn't have had a choice to be an M-Modal employee for at least that first day, even if I didn't want to be. My question is, now that I'm applying for new jobs, how would you list your former employer's name on a resume/job app? Instead of saying you worked at DSG for "X" number ...

Hi! I am currently job hunting and am curious what anyone can tell me about their experiences in working for Accentus has been like since they were bought out in 2012 by Nuance. I searched the archives and most of what I found about Accentus was from before the buyout, and may no longer be accurate information. Thanks in advance! ...

I had an administrative role at my company before it was taken over by a big player. The following things happened. 1. The supervisors at my company were demoted to MTs unless they had a college degree and were willing to travel extensively. 2. The QA staff were kept but their pay changed from hourly to production with strict quotas. Almost immediately they had to QA terrible work from other countries. Every one of them quit before long because they made about half of what they previously made ...

Got a call from Axolotl today about interviewing. Have heard good things in the past, but saw they were just acquired by another company. Any current employees with advice? Pay rates/platform? Is it straight MT or do they have VR also? Affordable benefits? Would appreciate any information. Comfortable(ish) at current job, would hate to leave and then have transcription phased out or pay cut. Thanks in advance for any info! ...

I am sorry to bring this up here, but I just wanted to know if anyone else who works for Optuminsight, or Axolotl is concerned about where the transcription portion of the company is going? I have noticed the workload has diminshed significantly since the takeover. There have been people who have been there for a significant amount of time retiring or quitting. Even the Optuminsight website says nothing about transcription nor does United Health Group. The letter to the c ...

An ex-Axolotl/Optum Insight employee was looking for 3 others to sign a petition for TAA. I didn't sign at the time, but am now interested in signing. I've checked January archives and I don't see the post. Archives showing Jan-Mar and not prior. ...
