I read somewhere that they're a scam, that they look for money up front. Be careful.
Thanks so much Robyn, it was not an email requesting money, instead (sm) - anon

it was a very broken email requesting my hours and days available. When I emailed them back and asked them to tell me something about the company, they never replied. Oh well.

I saw an ad for this company on mtdaily last week - I emailed them with my resume and have not heard back from them at all. I can't find anything online about them either - no website, no phone number; only contact is an aol email addy.
I wonder what kind of pay they offer, if they are legit or what the deal is -
BE LEARY OF THE AD ON MT JOBS FOR CYPRESS MEDICAL, THEY ARE A SCAM! THEY CANNOT EVEN CONSTRUCT A SENTENCE, WILL NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE COMPANY, GIVE A HISTORY OR HAVE A WEBSITE OR PROVIDE A PHONE NUMBER OR A CEO, OR MANAGER'S NAME!
THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WITH A GATEWAY AD, AND THEY STUCK ME FOR $1200! PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER THIS AD, MY COMPUTER WAS COMPROMISED RIGHT AFTER I RESPONDED TO THE AD!

I keep seeing the Cypress medical reviewer job for some MT with 10 yrs experience. Why is this job always open? Does anybody have any info of what this job is really? ...
Is anybody out there in MT land working for Cypress Medical or has worked for them? Just wondering what you think of them. Everyone have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS! ...
Does anyone work for this company or had worked for this company doing medical review work? I do review work for a local IME doctor and I love it. I would love to find more of this type of work. This company sounds interesting, but all I have found are negative comments. However, none of the comments come from people who have actually worked for the company. ...
I was just wondering about anyone's experience with Cypress Medical. Was offered a position there, but scared to make the leap. If you work there, are you able to make a living and are they nice to work for? Thanks. ...
Has anyone heard of this company? They are hiriing "summarizers". Would like to know if anyone has taken the test and/or been hired by this company and what you think. Thanks ...
Did anyone accept a position with the above after doing the 49-page file review and summarization. I had a call from the gentleman last night but not at a good time, so he will call back this evening. Curious as to whether or not their actual files are as disorganized as the test file. If anyone accepted a position, can you share how it is going. Thanks. ...
I applied to their ad, took the test and was offered a position. Would like feedback from anyone who works there, or worked there. Did you like it? Were you honestly able to make a living doing this type of work? Pay offered seemed low for the amount of time it took me to summarize the sample they sent me for the test. Any information you can supply is greatly appreciated. ...
Does anyone know if this company is really legit. There is nothing that comes up on Google as far as a company website, or any information really. They give no contact name really. It seems odd. If anyone knows of a website or other company information, would be great. Thanks very much. Lots of scams out there these days. ...
I'm wondering if anyone has actually done the testing for this company/job (for medical records summarizer). I applied and they sent me a packet and a test. They want me to review 45 pages of medical records and summarize it! This is all sketchy to me. They have an AOL email address, no company info, nothing. Not sure if this is a scam or what. ...
Hello! I am seeking new employment and just received a call/message from Superior Global. I see on here only negative information, but the newest post about them I can see is from 2008. Does anyone know anything more current about Superior Global? I am hoping things have improved, but if not, I don't want to waste my time ...
Thank you for your input! I really appreciate it. ...
The following is the summation of a message I just received from one of my professors, the HIT department chair, regarding upcoming coding exams. This is just an FYI for those of you scheduled or scheduling your exams.
Coding Certification Exams - Contact your test centers
If anyone is signed up for any of the coding certification exams, they have been delayed for about 30 days. Be sure to review the information below and contact your test center.
The coding exams hav ...
Recevied a message from OSI recruiter giving instructions to register for testing? Anyone know how long it took to receive the confirmation code once registering? Also any positives/negatives would be appreciate. I've been doing this since correctotape and typewriter days....I just want to retire (not for a few more years anyway) and have resasonable benefits. I guess everything is sort of going this way these days, but I guess we have to stick it out. Could we all just not log in ...
Anyone have info on this company and its "job" offer? I see it keeps renewing its ad and wonder if it can't find anyone or if it actually needs a ton of people? Any info would be GREAT.. thanks! ...
The job wtih Cypress sounds interesting; however, I am just curious about the references being "physician references." I have been working at home for about 20 years and my references are all MTSO-type references. Do they overlook this or does it actually have to be doctors? Thanks. ...
Does anybody know any companies besides Cypress that does that kind of work? I'm interested in it but Cypress itself seems to disorganized, their testing is ridiculous and I have no physician references because I've worked at home for years. Any information is welcome. Thanks! ...
I decided to take the position, something different. I was just curious to see how many others have recently started here or will be starting here? I'm kind of nervous as it's so different from anything I've ever done before. ...
I am working on a presentation about understanding ESL physicians. What is the best tip you were given, or have discovered to understand ESL dictation? ...
I've looked on the new ADP site, but nothing so far. HR won't return my email. Has anyone received their W2s yet this year?? Wanna bet they wait right up until the last second :( ...
I wondered if everyone has received their W2s by now?
I left MModal several months ago when I realized staying for the benefits was not worth the stress and LOW pay, but have yet to receive my W2. I also did not receive my final PTO pay but it was less than 100 dollars so did not pursue it other than a few emails (and yes, I gave 2 weeks' notice and worked all of that). So glad to be gone and wishing everyone still there the best in 2015 as I feel for you.& ...
a phone call earlier from MQ with a job offer. This is from where I applied FOUR years ago and then pulled my application because I was offered something better. This lady calls me today and tells me how there is such an abundance of work, I can pick any shift that I want, no weekends and a really decent CPL. Thankfully I am extremely happy where I am so I very politely declined the position and thought that I would come here and see how things are going. WOW, what a shoc ...
