Pay per radiology report - TiredMT

Posted: Feb 18, 2013

I am in the hiring process. They are offering $1.26 per radiology report during daytime hours and $1.38 for evenings and nights. I've never been paid by report. Does anyone have an opinion about these rates?

I know I wouldn't mind if the person asking about this would e-mail me as I would be happy with such a rate for x-ray reports.

Based on a past post I believe you work for the - same place as I do.

Most radiology MT's are struggling and took big cuts in pay where I work. If I were offered that I would jump ship in a heart beat.

Depends on avg daily workload - jacksonMT

Did they tell you how many reports you will get daily on average? If it's a steady rate then definitely you're going to make bank. However, these days higher rate can equate to less work.

I have interviewed at 15+ places (MTSO's) in the last 12 months. The going rates range sm - RadMT

For straight typing, the range is $0.75 to $1.25 per report. Make sure to ask if they pay links; it makes a big, big difference.

For VR editing, the range is $0.50 (!) to about $1.00 per report. Again, ask about links.

Find out what the average count is per hour on the account they are hiring for. That makes a difference, too.

I work for a company that is the hated company on the board right now, but I average $27 an hour at $1.10 per report, and very rarely run out of work.

Email me if you want.

I sent you an email. - NM

working for a hosp @ $3.25/report. They have a much hated MTSO doing their work but they can't keep up with the volume. You might try calling hospitals and asking about over-flow, backlogs, etc. if they already have a service on board, unless you're in the market for bennies, too.

I'm wondering why radiology seems to be its own separate entity in the MT world. It seems like if you know radiology, they'll bend over backwards to hire you.
