I did receive the packet and did the test -- and after reading all these posts... I sent an email to the claims management company listed on the forms received, asking if they are familiar with Cypress... will post update when I hear back....if I hear back....

Approx how long from the time you took the test and submitted it until you heard back? thanks

Not sure what they pay, but - sm

medical record reviewing is very tedious, time consuming and boring. And I can see them giving a large volume of pages to test - some reports may be 10, 20 pages long each report. I wouldn't do the job for less than $20 an hour, myself :)

Also did test. Can someone post if they hear back from company and what the deal is with the position. As a nurse/paralegal by trade, it would have been ideal, but my heart is with transcription.

from months ago when i applied - did not take the job

Starting pay is $4.50 per summarized page with increases as you become proficient

Why didn't you take the job? - nm

Just wondering why you decided not to. Thanks for letting us know about the rate.

That rate seems very low to me based on the presentation of records, reviewing, organizing, summarizing. I did something similar years ago but had the actual paper file in front of me and could put them chronologically which made it easier. I found it very confusing the way the files were to do the summary. Good luck to those that accept the position.

I finished their "test" and they emailed me that the pay would be 6 dollars per complete page. They want to call and "discuss" the test summary I did. It was extremely confusing and overwhelming, but I think it could become easier once you get the hang of it...they are supposed to call me on Monday morning...or "sooner".

How long - MT

How long did it take you to do the test? Just wondering. They sent me the packet and I was totally overwhelmed by it and didn't do it. Anyway, good luck. I really hope it works out for you. And thanks for sharing your experience with us. If you do take the job, I would love to know how it goes for you :)

Thank you for sharing info! The test seemed so long and I was so unsure about the company that I jus - cypress

Thanks everyone for your input. It seems like a lot of work for $6 per page. Think I'll stick with transcription.

I thought the same thing, it seemed like a lot of work for $6 per page. However, thinking a macro for required fields, being able to add short blurb required, cutting and pasting for chronological dates should speed up review process for person doing summarization. I do wish the people accepting this position the best.

I took the plunge and accepted a position. As to the post: .."but had the actual paper file in front of me and could put them chronologically which made it easier." Use printer to have file in front of you. After 39 years of transcribing I'm going for something different. Over time I understand summarizing can be quite lucrative.

Cypress needs to edit the ad first! - T.J.

Seriously, I couldn't believe it. In their latest ad for a summarizer they have spelled it "Hippa" (not all caps) and "substancial". I don't even want to work for a company that's stupid enough to let something like that get posted.

Did anyone accept a position with the above after doing the 49-page file review and summarization.

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?

I am a potential MT, and I was researching this field and came across an ebook called The Successful Medical Transcriptionist. It's by a lady named Shelley Wipper, she claims to have been an MT for 12 years and made a successful living doing it, and the book is supposed to give Step-by-Step insight in how to succeed in the industry. I just wanted to know if anyone the industry has in fact heard of her and her $50 ebook, or is her website thesuccessfulmedicaltranscriptionist.com just a scam. ...

Their name is American Healthcare Documentation Professionals Group.
