What does InScribe have against California MT's?


Posted: Nov 18, 2014

So, I'm new to this forum and to MT. Looking for legit work and i see InScribe then I click on the site and :

Inscribe is not currently accepting Radiology applications or applications from any resident of the state of California.  

Can anyone enlighten me as to what is the reasoning behind this?

Any suggestions to a really good company to work for?

It's because California has stricter laws - sm

California is one of the states that has stricter laws that make it more difficult for the MT companies to cheat their employees and ICs.

For employees, there are laws that mandate overtime pay when certain conditions are met and laws which require the company to pay you if you show up for work but they have no work for you to do. For ICs, California makes double sure that you are truly an IC and that the MT company is not just calling you an "IC" in order to skirt around tax and employment laws.

So, the MT companies with iffy practices...the more underhanded ones who hire an employee but call you an IC so they don't have to worry about all those pesky little tax and employment laws...or the ones who want you to sit there unpaid while waiting for some work to finally show up...those are the ones who generally won't hire in California and a few other states which are more employee-friendly.

Similar question, I just saw an ad from NEMT looking for ICs and - ShowMeMT

they listed a bunch of states that they would only accept MT resume's from. California was listed, but Missouri wasn't. I was wondering what's wrong with Missouri?

Might want to apply anyway however... - nn

They may have accidentally left Missouri out. You could probably apply anyway and see if your resume would be accepted. However, the ad has been up there a couple of weeks and I was hired by them and am in the process of submitting my paperwork now, so positions may already be filled.

Hi everyone, I'm now in the process of taking the test for InScribe. It seems difficult at parts but doable. I was wondering what other people's experiences with taking this test were. Also, I'd love to hear feedback from current InScribe employees. The good, the bad. Thanks!  ...

California Prop 187 In 1994 LOST California For The GOPNov 07, 2012
red for Reagan and H.W. Bush, but NO more. California's gone very blue in Presidential elections ever since. For those who don't remember, 187 was an attempt by conservatives to deny schooling and healthcare to illegal immigrant children. It outraged MANY of all backgrounds, but it especially activated the Hispanics it was aimed at; and although it was later voided as unconstitutional, the damage it did to the GOP lives on. If no 187, we might well have woke up to a President-Elect ...

When Nuance laid off all California MTs, I began to wonder what was happening but that was employees.  TTS wrote me and said they will not hire any from California. I have applied to numerous jobs and hardly a word.  I have passed tests at 96% and still, have not been hired.  I purposefully applied somewhere and left off my address.  I saw there were 400 hits so I figured I would not hear from them.  Today I got an email asking, "Where are you located?"  Am I correc ...

How awful this whole thing is.  It is apparent that the school officials just wanted to avoid any unrest, but they ended up setting the stage anyway.  I don't think they could have avoided it no matter what they did, but it seems it would have been much better if they had announced that there would probably be those who choose to wear the American flag.  The students should have been counseled on how to handle situations such as these as a group, and made fully aware of the c ...

About Obamacare, I Just Found Out In California, SMOct 14, 2013
that many of the exchange plans will not have the same doctors as the non-exchange plans. Blue Shield will only offer 50% of the doctors and only 40% of the hospitals as the same non-exchange plans. I guess you have to sign up for it before you know what's in it. Pun intended. The silver lining to all of this is that market forces are about to be re-introduced into the health CARE industry. I've read about doctors opening cash only clinics, and like Medicare will pass on Obamaca ...

Anyone On Covered California (Obamacare)?Mar 05, 2015
I am thinking of letting go of my terrible work insurance where the premiums are nearly $200 per month. I can quailfy for subsidies from Obamacare because my income is so disgustingly low. I'm wondering if anyone has trouble with getting prescriptions covered? Do you have to pay full price for them and are those costs rolled into the deductible? Did you have to change doctors? I believe I would have to do that if I select the bronze plan. I figured out the cost of my current premiums and ...

I should not be surprised.  Leave it to the idiots in California.   The California Supreme Court has reversed a lower court holding and sided with California Regents and illegal aliens on the issue of in-state tuition breaks. Under the latest ruling, California colleges (California State University, the University of California, and California Community Colleges) have been given the green light to offer tuition breaks to illegal aliens and deny the same benefit to U.S. citizens from ...

"As the immigration debate simmers in Washington, California Republicans face a very different reality than a majority of their party colleagues, who elsewhere largely represent districts that are overwhelmingly white.

Obama Stimulus Funds Went To California Feb 20, 2017
The 2009 stimulus package funded millions of dollars for safety improvements for a dam in California that was in “good shape,” but not to the Oroville Dam that is now on the verge of a spillway crisis. Nearly 200,000 residents north of Sacramento were ordered to evacuate after fears that erosion would cause the emergency spillway to fail, which would lead to “catastrophic flooding“ from a 30-foot wall of water. Despite more than a decade of warnings about Oroville, there is no publ ...
