I have to say... working for Acusis is an honor! This company treats their employees with the utmost respect, fiinds work when needed and has contests for employees. I recently won a gift card and received a holiday gift on top of that. This company is an example of who to work for if anyone needs to work. Amphion, observe and learn from this company and how they treat their people!! ...

I have a couple of questions. What happens if you don't make at least minimum wage as an employee? A few questions down, it is calculated around $5/hr if the poster makes what she says. Do they fire you if you are under minimum wage? How do they keep MTs at that low, low rate? Also someone pointed out "it's even as an IC." Curious (I'm really confused) why it matters if you are IC or an employee. Obviously there are benefits, but aren't yo ...

so I did not get the checks until sometime in January/Feb. She never sent my 1099 on time when I worked for her so I doubt I will even get one this year unless she decides to say she paid me more than she really did (which I would not put past her). Do I have to claim the money she paid me in 2009 even though I should have received it in 2008?? With the two paid in 2009 that should have been paid in 2008 ($488.25) and the two that were supposed to be paid in 2009 ($418.25).&nbs ...

Does anyone know the region(s) the MTs work that were recently honored by the CEO? How can you be considered for this award if you constantly get NJA now? North region out of work since early this morning. Even 11pm shift now has NJA daily. ...

So Nuance bought out Transcend? It will probably come down to only 2 companies left, Nuance and IM*Moral. Then they will either fight to the death or team up. ...

Slowly they will transfer accounts, one by one, to India, starting with the easiest accounts/work types first. Soon we here in the US will be left with ONLY the bottom of the barrel indecipherable CRAP........which we will have to send to QA hence our pay will be practically reduced to what they pay for Indians to do the work. A lot of us will finally throw in the towel, not being able to accept minimum wage, which will be fine with them. They just don't want it all happen ...

It seems it would behoove them to keep the work here unless they will remotely manage. ...

THEY DISGUST ME!! ...

Does this company hire and then after a quarterly review have QA pick your work apart and then tell you they can either terminate your contract or cut your pay. Understand this has happened to more than one person. Has anyone experienced this. They told me I was doing awesome work, not they picked the work after and then tell me that in 2 weeks my contract will either be terminated or will have a reduced line rate. This makes no sense. I have 18 years experience.&nb ...

As someone noted below, they are getting 2 cents. I am getting 4 cents per edited line. Is this being cut further? ...

"She had a fairly significant increase in pain. We were concerned about the possibility of swelling inside the cast. We cut it in a s/l "bi val" or "bioval" fashion and released some of the pain." Can anyone help with this one? ...

how would you type this? Any help appreciated - thanks! ...

I'm not understanding if a person was making 8 or 9 cents a line for straight transcription and then the account goes to voice rec and the pay is decreased for that, why is the pay for straight transcription also going down? It's the same doctors, so why am I now suddenly worth 2 cents less to do straight transcription? Personally, if it isn't VR worthy, then you would think that it would still be worth the 8 or 9 cents a line. ...

Have Express Scribe Pro, This week the last few seconds of a voice file are being cut off, don't know where to go in Menu to adjust this or fix it. Any suggestions. TIA ...

How does that work for ya? Amy & Shah? Want to take a 40% pay cut like we did? ...

For those lucky enough to work directly for the client (no MTSO) are any EMRs set up for transcription, or do you subscribe to a service to send Word files? Is it an easy setup? The only thing holding me back from trying to get my own accounts again is having no tech help for problems that are bound to occur. Any recommendations for services to transmit files and what do they charge. I just can't keep working for .04 cents a line. It's completely impossible to live ...

own without having to do massive layoffs. The real underlying intention here is to have all work taken over by India. Quality and patient safety have nothing to do with it. Paying India workers mere pennies increases the bottom line. There is no public explaining to do or announce regarding massive layoffs. They will simply claim US workers quit on their own and they cannot find employees here in the US. I would love to know how much the person or persons were paid to think up this pla ...

In case anyone hadn't seen this.

It says Amphion will also discuss openings within their business.&l ...

The recent reduction in shift differentials is the first phase of reducing the workforce during those hours. You can expect there to be an eventual phase-out of the shift differentials altogether. Why? The ultimate goal is to utilize offshore vendors for that work. This pressurized reduction in income opportunitywill cause some natural attrition: Some will not be able to afford the pay loss, some will be upset and simply quit. It will take a little time but ...

It's satire, and yet so true.. ...

So had work for 2 days out of the week with no problems and then all of a sudden an email appears that help is needed for the weekend and also wanting people to change their schedules to the weekend. All of a sudden, no jobs available appear. Apparently, work is just cut off until people start volunteering to change their schedule or volunteering to cover hours on the weekend and when some poor schmoe changes their schedule or volunteers, all of a sudden we have work again. Tot ...

Has anyone found any type of loan to pay for your coding programs at Andrews or Career Step that has lower payments than the school payment plans? I'm not saying their price is unreasonable. I just can't afford the payments or to pay outright. Thanks, Kat ...

Hello forum users! I am currently very interested in the MT field. I am a fast typist, excellent speller, I have a good grasp of grammar, etc. I am eyeing a course offered online, it seems professional and excellent and all that. The whole thing seems perfect for me! I would like to work from home and make my own hours while doing this. However, I recently spoke to a neighbor who is an MT, and she is losing her job to a machine. She also claims that her MT friend ...

I've been looking at the job ads and have noticed a trend of very low cpl being offered. Are there still any companies out there paying 9 or above? I'm tired of wasting my time testing for companies only to find out during the interview process that they're only willing to pay 7 or 8 cpl. Thanks! ...
