Medical Transcriptionist - Medical Transcriptionist Oracle Transcription Employee Review

Great flexibility, particularly for part-timers. Pay is about average and absolutely on time every time. Tech support is very good with a good internet based transcription platform too.

Like many transcription companies, there isn't always enough work to go around. Communication could be a bit better.

This was originally Oracle Transcription when I started. There was good training, good communication, and IT help available for any software problems. However, the owners of Oracle split up, and part of Oracle became Mercedes Transcription. This resulted in loss of accounts and lowered pay if you were on the Mercedes side of the deal, which I was. Difficult to earn much at 0.65 cents/line, while many transcription companies pay 9 cents/line. Still, pros were that it was mostly daytime to early evening work, Monday through Friday, with some work on Saturdays.

Sometimes overburdened with work; other times, little work available. Had to work on several different accounts across different specialties plus hospital, etc., in order to have enough work. Like many transcription companies, you are an independent contractor and there are no benefits or perks.
