I have worked for Hands-On for a few years now and I think it is a well run company. I recently had surgery for breast cancer, and the owner and manager were very compassionate and concerned for my well being. They are always available to help if I have a question. It is one of the best jobs I have had. You have to work hard, but after all it is a job and if you follow the "rules and regulations" regarding quality of work and turn around time you will get along just fine. You also transcrib ...

Found this at www usajobs gov. It is a very good description of what coding is. You can see how challenging the duties are. The salary ranges are good, too. It's a VA position, where coders are GS 6/7/8. Upward promotion requires a year as a 6, a year as a 7, then you're an 8 if you learn what you should at each level. They also have positions at the 9/11 and higher levels associated with or supervising coding. A perform ...

Date: 10.21.09 I am 44 and a medical transcriptionist. I started working as an MT at age 35 and since then has been doing this job. For the last one year I have been experiencing numbness and paresthesias in both hands and lots of trouble with neck stiffness and fasciculations in both shoulders. I type for 8-1/2 hours from Tuesday to Saturday. I have concluded from this that onset of carpal tunnel starts when a person(male or female) is 40 or above 40 years of age. ...

I have applied for a job with On-Hands Transcription - I do not see information on here - positive or negative. I was hoping that somebody who actually has worked or currently works for them could post some information - positive and negative about the company and the accounts that they transcribe. Any information would be appreciated. ...

can i see a show of hands of how many of my fellow MT's are THIS CLOSE to throwing in the towel, not only with MQ, but just transcription companies in general? I am first, who's next? Let me see those hands!!! ...

I found some old posts in the Archives but was wondering if anyone had any recent experience with this company. Their website is a one-pager with not a whole lot of information but looks legit enough. Also, is Bayscribe easy to learn and utilize? Will it interfere with any player I currently use for voice files? I have never used any kind of platform - always just digital voice files and Word. Any information or input on either question is appreciated. Thanks! ...

I have been job hunting since May of this year. I don't have acute care experience, lots of Radiology and clinic experience. (11 years). I have passed tests, I have sent out resumes, I have tried job boards, etc. I either a) Never hear anything; 2) Been told, hey you passed with flying colors but we already picked our applicants; 3) Been told they needed me, then did a 180 and said no they didn't but will hold my resume; and 4) Been told my system is too u ...

I refuse to test any more!! I am sick of being directed to the mttest site only to have 4 or more reports waiting to be done that are 5-8 minutes long each!! Seriously, if they want to see my skills, just let me try and work for them for a while. I just refuse to test any more. It is ridiculous considering what they want to pay anyway. Sigh. Done venting! ...

Have all of you gone crazy? I have worked for C and Hands On for more than 10 years, have always gotten paid, always had work every day just as promised, and love the flexibility of my job. It is obvious that those of you who were not doing your job, and therefore have too much time on your hands, because you can't find another job are posting this non sense. I know C has been in business for 30 years starting from scratch. Tell me....how does someone stay in business for that long in ...

Hello, this may be an unusual question, but I have been transcribing for about 3 months now, after completing 12 months at Career Step. I've been noticing over the last week that my hands are looking almost like skeleton hands. It's like the fat is disappearing and the bones are becoming more prominent. Also, the veins in my hands are becoming very, very vascular. They are about the diameter of a drinking straw. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this common with excessive typing? I ...
