| The Truth in Transcription.
Many
"big-national" transcription companies send your work to outside
Independent Contractor (IC) Transcriptionists, and lead you to believe
they are doing the work themselves, in their office. In doing so, they
pay the transcriptionists less but charge you more for a profit margin
to cover the overhead costs of running their business.
Oftentimes,
they offshore your work to a foreign country, that regrettably do not
have the same laws regarding confidentiality as we do here in the USA.
Transcription companies receive your work, send it out, and then hold on to it until your TAT is approaching. At
CLK, we handle your work as soon as possible and return it to you when
completely transcribed and proofed. Therefore, if your TAT is 48 hours,
and it is complete in 6 hours, you have your work back. No charge for
priorities, because all work is a priority to us.
For
each client a profile is developed explaining format, style, and
details that you forward to us when we set up your account. CLK and the in-house staff are primary on
all accounts set up, however several IC transcriptionists may be
trained to handle your account as backups and proofreaders. This allows
your quality to remain fluid with every report, and allows a quicker
TAT for every single submission. All IC Transcriptionists sign a
confidentiality agreement BEFORE they begin work on any project.
CLK
is committed to keeping your work here in the USA. Your clients deserve
the privacy enacted by HIPAA. When medical records / company
information is sent off-shore, the possibility of identify theft is
more than doubled. The American IC is held to confidentiality and
privacy laws.
They
are trained and understand the English language better than anyone,
leaving less room for grammar errors, and they have the drive to
complete your document in a professional manner the first time.
CLK
keeps her overhead low by not advertising in the mass market. No fancy
slogans or logos. We understand that you are working with budgets and
financial constraints yourself. We will negotiate any rate to meet your needs.
CLK
believes that if you appreciate the quality of the work you receive, you
will continue to come back for their services. The best form of
advertising is referrals.
CLK
acknowledges the experience and dedication an IC Transcriptionist puts
into your work. If an IC Transcriptionist is utilized, they are
compensated fairly for the work they do for each individual assignment.
This ensures that they will develop quality work and be available for
more.

to do? Search the Transcriptionist Forums online.
They are unhappy and feel they are underpaid by the big "Nationals"
that are growing rapidly. When your transcriptionist is unhappy, your
work suffers. CLK strives to keep the IC's as happy as the client they
deal with.
Try CLK, you will not be disappointed.
