I work for Transcend. Unless the job ad specifically states DSL or cable required, I would apply for it.
When we looked into satellite, we were told that Wild Blue could not meet my needs. I can't remember if it was because it wasn't secure enough or if it was more of a technical issue, i.e. lagtime or amount of pages downloaded, etc.
I hope and pray we get DSL soon, though, because the cost of this internet is not worth it.

MedQuist and Transcend both do...not sure if it makes a difference what accounts you do.
Does anybody know if there are any companies that let you work from satellite or is that illegal now due to HIPAA? Years ago I looked into this and there was a tiny list of companies but it was dwindling so don't know now.
Might be taking off in an RV and was wondering if anybody works that way with a satellite dish attached or some other method?

Has anyone ever heard of Transcription Connection, Inc. out of Lynchburg, OH? I was thinking of sending them a resume. Any information would be great! THANKS! ...
Have to admit I'm pretty shocked by several of the posts on this forum, especially concerning how the companies are operating. New to the MT world here, and guess I'm green. Hadn't heard much at the school I attended except this forum was "too negative." I now see there's a legit reason for negative posts about companies if these posters are being honest, and I have no reason to believe they're not.
Just wondering how tight a connection the MT schools ...
Has anyone recently started losing their internet connection for a split second while they are working? This just started last week and only when I am typing in Fluency. Is this happening to anyone else? ...
American Health Connection has posted for staff/agent jobs on MTDaily and MT Stars. They are very pleasant people with whom to work for sure. The trend these days is to outsource hospital patient registration and companies such as this are taking off big time. Having started training with them, I have had nothing but trouble...at first I was told my bandwidth was fine, only to learn that I needed 40-50 download speed and at least 10 upload speed. Had to switch to a new provider, however, ...
I recently applied and interviewed with American Health Connection. It is not a transcription company but has remote home positions that work well with our MT knowledge base and sounds perfect for my tired hands after 20+ years. Has anyone had any exposure to this company? ...
American Health Connection or Ahconn has no business trying to recruit professional transcriptionists for their virtual call center. That is all it is. Furthermore, there are other problems, like your inability to care about these patients whom you engage, their problems are not your problems, so in the event they need your help and you can or try to help, they will reprimand you. They are not clear on your duties until it is too late and your job is in jeopardy. Manageme ...
I was hired by American Health Connection as a patient scheduler. I was sent an offer letter which I signed and then an email came with several forms to complete. Once had to be notarized, so I mailed everything back priority rate. Then, another email came with more attachments. Within those attachments, was a training reimbursement agreement that I was required to sign that said that if I quit the job prior to 6 months on the job I would have to pay $2,500 to the company. I have never in my lif ...
Recently moved have Hughesnet and really struggling with download speed of voice files through vpn. We did upgrade one level to their 1 mbps speed but took over 8 minutes to download a 4 minute voice file. Kind of difficult to make any $ when half of the day is consumed waiting for downloads. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions to help out?... Does Verizon wireless card provide a better option? Any help or ideas would be much appreciated! ...
Since I live in the mountains, I now have to use satellite internet and find that lots of companies will not go for this. Does anybody know which companies use satellite or are not too picky about this? It is hard enough trying to find a job lately, but then it seems like satellite is just another obstacle to put up with.
Thanks for any info -- appreciate it. ...
I have been working successfully for Softscript for the past 5 years via a dial-up internet connection. Recently, I have been having trouble downloading jobs; i.e., I can't do it. The tech person I have been working with there says that my computer is fine - it is just that dial-up is outdated - "no one expects anyone to have a dial-up connection any more".
I don't understand how it can be working one day and not the next. Anybody have any ideas, fixes, etc. I ...
Has anyone obtained a position and started working with either of these companies on their new positions for patient representatives, which is basically taking phone calls, setting appointments, checking insurance, etc.? I am curious as to how it works out in the long run and if it is worth it. Any information would be greatly appreciated - thanks! ...
Any companies that alloow satellite internet? There is no DSL or cable internet available at my new address. The only thing available is satellite. Right now, I'm having to go to my mother's to work so I really am considering trying to find a company that will allow satellite internet. ...
Many companies specify no satellite. Is this uncompatible with their system or do they just prefer no satellite so say no satellite? I mean how do they really know or not if you have it? Have you thought of that. I mean some companies that use Escription say you can use satellite and some say no you can't. If they are using the same platform how can it work with one company and not the other? ...
