Mediscribes what platform? - fingers

Posted: Jun 10, 2014

Does anybody know what platform Mediscribes out of Louisville uses or any experience working for this company?

They used to use their own platform, but not sure now. sm - BTDT

Forget the Kentucky thing. They are based in Ahmedabad, India (or however it is spelled). The owner has a house in KY, so that baits you in. They used to pay 9 cpl, twice a month, and always on time, but even though you are an IC, they want you to work a schedule like an employee and they will hound you all day with instant messages, calling you if they need something and you are not online to bug, regardless that maybe it is 5 a.m. your time. Nice people but totally not respecting of boundaries (in my opinion). It is a paycheck.

I work for Mediscribes and they use their own platform called WordScript, which is a Word-based program. They are a great group of people to work for. Yes, they do IM or call when they need you to work, but that is a good thing if you want to make a paycheck. They do not "bug" you to work. They do expect a schedule, which is a little off for being an IC but considering the type of industry we work in, I think we all can understand that somewhat. Pay is always on time and correct. They are Indian owned but from my understanding the owner has been living in America for 20 years. They are a great company to work for in my opinion and I have worked for several of the largest companies out there. They also are all straight typing, no editing, and great accounts!

Oh, no, no. This was the worst experience ever. - anon

You will be spoon fed through IM and get IMs constantly asking are you done yet? can you do a stat? Constantly stopping you from working to answer them. All the clear speaking dictators they give to their people across the ocean and you'll get the worst of accents. I truly thought all they had were accents until I said something to the person running things here. Hope QA never needs to call you about something in your report - you'll not be able to understand him. You're not working FOR India, you'll be working WITH India after the recruiter and training, and paybacks are a mo-fo. They just keep hiring constantly because it's a revolving door of MTs.

Do you know a good one to apply to. Currently working for company that has 20 people on one account, constantly running out of work and no backup accounts. Any info would be so much appreciated.

Thank you.

I wish I did, but I'm in the same boat with my company. - good luck to us both. NM

I wonder if anyone after hearing comments on these companies and what - PAMT

they do has ever when applying to these companies that cant keep MTs told them what your expectation is regarding your work and if you don't get that no use applying and see what they do. Just curious what they might say. Or if I don't get what you promise I am finished and will not work further. Probably they wouldn't care but would be worth trying to get what you are promised and what they tell you you will get. Nothing to lose if you don't stay with them anyway or don't get hired. Of course, would be good to have another job while doing this.

How is that bad? - anon

So what I am seeing is that they bug you to work because they have work for you to do? And they pay on time and correctly? And this is bad? Maybe you all have better jobs than me, but that sounds exactly like what I am looking for, a company that pays on time and correctly and has something for me to actually type.

I think once you have worked 12 hours or so, and they wake you up at 3 am sm - BTDT

perhaps you will think differently. They only dole you out 5 files at a time, then will interrupt to ask you if you can do a stat, then 2 seconds later ask you if you're done yet, etc. When you run out of work, there's nothing they can do, but then you find out the MTs on the Indian side of the company have plenty to do. Trust me, it is NOT the dream job you may think.

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 ...

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 ...

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

Needing a general consensus on whether or not you like the DQS platform...what about it's ASR generated reports. I personally like the platform and think the ASR reports aren't as bad as some platforms I have been on...I just hate the rate of ASR pay. Though it is estimated the production increases with ASR, for most, that simply is not the case and, per a study I found online, quite the opposite. Please see results from that independent study below. En ...

In your experience, which platform would you recommend an IC/MT suggest a physician's office utilize? This would be probably for four docs per office or less and one to four MTs. I am hoping to "sell" some local private doctor offices with this form of EMR so it may save my current small job and also allow me to obtain more work. Also, I would appreciate any suggestions on how to "sell" this idea to them. Thank you for any help you may be able to share with me. ...
