Some people don't have the capital outlay to purchase an expensive call in system, so 1 cpl is very cost effective considering other TASP alternatives with the lowest costing 2.5 cpl. - Sheri 14:35:40 08/06/03 Views: ([an error occurred while processing this directive]), Re:

HIPAA laws not enforced overseas - Susan Fitzpatrick 06:27:14 09/01/03, Re:
(0)
This is a cost-cutting measure. I do not believe it is close to 9-10 cpl, it is much lower. I believe also there are subsidies involved. No overhead for offshore MTs (the same reason hospitals outsource), i.e. hospitalization, PTO, etc. I work for one of the big ones and at one time there was PTO, shift differential, holiday differential, and you could actually get a raise maybe every 4-5 years. How all of these have been taken away. I have had two line rate cuts in the past 3 year. This is not because of quality issues. My quality has always been 99% and higher. This is because "I make too much money." I was willing to work 3rd shift and weekends and holidays and still do all of those things, without any additional remuneration. It is all about $$$$$$$$$ and we are not talking about 9-10 cpl, MUCH LOWER. - Disagree........... 06:20:06 08/06/03 Views: ([an error occurred while processing this directive]), Re:

No, you're wrong. It is NOT, I repeat NOT, much lower. You really do need to get your facts straight before spewing forth such nonsense. - Jezebelle 06:37:58 08/06/03 Views: ([an error occurred while processing this directive]), Re:
(30)
Do you think Medquist pays for the satellite/fiber lines to the foreign countries? I THINK NOT. Do you think they pay 9-10 cpl to the offshore MTs?? I THINK NOT. Get real. If you think Medquist and others are sending their work overseas because they have no MTs here, you are wrong. They are going for the lowest cost/highest profit margin. GET REAL. Oh, and as voice recognition improves, they will switch more and more to VR. But at least with VR, it stays here and does not compromise the privacy of American citizens. Again, it is all about $$$$$$$$. - put your sock in 08:18:46 08/06/03 Views: ([an error occurred while processing this directive]), Re:

It's already listed out in Ana's message above. She's right on target with those costs. For example, Spryance charges between 8-9 cpl to their largest clients and they are not profitable.

Yes, I do know the answer. 1) MQ is majority owned by Royal Dutch Philips. 2) Spryance is a VC-funded private company incorporated in Massachusetts. It is majority owned by a group of Indians. - Ana 11:26:15 08/06/03 Views: ([an error occurred while processing this directive]), Re:

You mean because the MTs in India will work for a meal and about 1 cpl.

The plain fact is that it should be illegal to outsource American citizens medical and credit data...period. It is not secure to do so, and US law does not help one iota if a company in India or wherever is datamining the information and selling it back to some unscrupulous US companies.
