MediScribes Inc., Louisville, KY - Chimeralld

Posted: Sep 08, 2012

Hello. Does anyone work (or has worked) for MediScribes Inc., in Louisville, KY? If so, just wondering how well it is going? Thank you very much.

It's in India, not Kentucky. Instant messages from the Indian sm - no thanks

techs all day while you're working.

I have to agree - nn

You have to IM to have work assigned. The work coordinators and tech support are ALL Indian based, and if something goes wrong with the platform, you loose a report, etc, then they want to automatically remote in to your computer. They will not call first. The platform is extremely antiquated for newer systems (mine is Windows 7) and I had nothing but problems -- of course, it was MY computer, my internet connection, none of it was their fault. Software was developed by M2CommSys, which is a company out of Vegas that used to advertise and they were BIG time Indian.

I do - only been a positive experience. Lots of work, okay platform (not the best but not the worst), good pay that is on time. I have not had problems with IMs "all day long." And no, I'm not a "suit," which seems to be the opinion around here if you have nothing negative to say about a company.

Do they have an incentive plan?

Incentive - MT

On the accounts I work, there is an incentive for anything over 12,000 lines a pay period. I honestly don't know if that's a company-wide benefit.

My hospital recently told us we were being outsourced to Mediscribes and that we were guaranteed jobs as employees or IC. They had a recruiter and one of the VPs come talk with us. But we found out things they told us were lies. They said everything is done in the US. Not true.
The software they use is old, and not even made anymore. They talked around questions we asked and never actually answered our questions. We don't trust them.

Antiquated platform - nonny

Their software is awful. I was told that it would work on my computer which uses Windows 7. I had nothing but problems. Techs would "remote in," without calling first and software was developed by M2CommSys, which even though they state is in Las Vegas, another Indian company. Also, you would get assigned 5 reports and have to then contact the work assigners via IM (again, an all Indian staff). I was told it was my computer, my internet connection, etc., but it was their ancient software.

Anyone who knows about this company, good or bad, please post your feelings about working for them. What platform do they use for straight transcription? What is their cpl rate?

There may be one staff member in Louisville, but it's Indian owned. Dig a little deeper. That's your first red flag. Your second red flag is the knowledge that last summer, once the US labor passed QA for Mediscribes, they immediately switched to their own Indian labor immediately afterwards, admitting freely that US labor on the account had done nothing wrong, QA wise or productivity wise. None of the 22 US laborers were given new ...

Anyone who currently works at Medscribes: Concerning Medscribes-Louisville, KY recent job post hours. What are they meaning with the Mon-Fri, 1/2 shift on weekend.

I read where someone wrote this was temporary gig. What is meant by that. I was recently hired and they did not tell me that. They did tell me about being Indian based and all the rest about a home in KY. I really do not know if they have Indian MTs but I would assume so, as most of the staff I have been in contact with are Indian and have very limited English. Are you saying that they train Americans to do their work and then send them packing and send the work to ...

As we all know, the testing process, etc., in applying for a job just to find out they pay so poorly you couldn't afford to take the job is extremely frustrating. With this in mind, does anyone have any info on the Mediscribes ad for QA on the job seeker's board. Apparently it is a line rate. That's not always a bad thing depending if you're doing 100% QA or just blank fill ins. Can anyone give me info on the pay with this company and any other pertine ...

Just quit there. Seriously lacks organization. Their India "allocation" team throws bits and pieces at you, very low volume, but then hammers your IM to death. Example, a 12 minute report is assigned, I would just get started on it and within less than 10 minutes they want to know where it is. WTF?! If the 2 US managers are out of the office and the India team is in charge, it's a nightmare. Then, even if the US managers are there, it's slim pickins as far as volume goes and then they ...

Management says they are considering 4 MTSOs, and that we will probably be offered jobs with whichever they choose. Mediscribes is one of the four, so we have lots of questions about Mediscribes: Has anyone else here been hired by Mediscribes because their hospital outsourced to them? Did they keep you on the same account? Did they bring you on at one rate of pay, then cut your pay later (like Nuance does)? If yes, how much later and to what rate of pay? And for any Mediscribe ...

then offshore it to India. They have an office already set up in India.

Americans are used to establish accounts here and then its outsourced. ...
