Straight typing only - Gi-Gi


Posted: Oct 30, 2014

Hi everyone.  I am putting in applications and I want to apply at jobs with straight typine, no VR.  If anyone knows of any, please let me know.  The VR is boring and while none of them pay the way they used to, I know that I could make more on straight typing...I have 9 years experience.

Yes there are -- company that I work for does - nonny

My company United Transcription does. However, IC and 7 cpl and doesnt matter your experience -- also HEAVY ESLs occasionally, but... they do not penalize for blanks and QA is helpful.

Not sure if they are hiring though right now

I think Softscript is still straight typing.... - Kiki

Yes I worked for them years ago, and I really liked their platform. I resigned and asked HR what I needed to do make sure I was eligible for rehire and they side to give a 2 weeks notice, in which I did. because of a business venture that didnt do so well, I reapplied to them about 3 years later and they said I wasnt eligible for rehire... Yes they do straight typing though...Thank you

What was there to dislike about me asking about straight typing - Gigi

I asked if there were any companies that did straight typing and I think the young ladies who answered, but I also see I got dislikes and I am trying to figure out the purpose of that!! Aren't we supposed to be here to help each other instead of always causing foolish controversy??? OMG

some people just automatically dislike every post - haters gotta hate

Nice company to work for. Good luck in your search.

Nother company with straight typing - nn

Smart Doc is also straight typing. The "account manager" tends to have an attitude however. She has 4 years experience as an MT and has never worked any place but SD and her QA feedback leaves something to be desired. When I worked for them it was 7 cpl to start, 90 days later up to 7.5. Not sure about now though.

ASR Vs Straight Typing
Oct 15, 2010

Got new accounts for the last 2 weeks that are not ASR (yet) so have been doing about 90% straight typing.  I have been averaging about $20 more per day than when I do ASR.  They can sell whatever snake oil they want, I can type faster and make more money straight typing than I can with their much-touted fabulous ASR --- EVEN ON BRAND NEW UNFAMILIAR ACCOUNTS.  ...

Straight Typing
Apr 13, 2015

Are there any accounts at Nuance that are straight typing and not VR? I find with VR I still have to make so many corrections it doesn't justify the pay per line so I might as well go back to straight typing, if those accounts even exist anymore. ...


Why Suddenly Less ASR, More Straight Typing?
Nov 19, 2009

Hmm, let's see.  We get a letter from MQ extolling our virtues as MTs, more and more info about nationalizing the EMR with Verizon, etc. and I notice I'm not the only one getting less ASR, more direct typing.  Could be a coincidence, but could be MQ is gathering statistics on us, how the voice recognition program of MQ compares with our production as MTs versus straight typing on our own.  Could MQ be using us as guinea pigs right now to pad their statistics to prove the ...

ASR Versus Straight Typing
Mar 11, 2011

Does anyone else out there get scared when you get a straight typing report?   Every time I get a straight typed report, the dictator sucks, sound quality sucks, or both.  I am totally scared every time a blank screen pops up.  Don't mean to sound unappreciative of the increased income, but sometimes I feel like I am being pulled through a needle backwards! ...

Re Straight Typing Versus VR.
Mar 08, 2012

I have a pretty good and accurate typing speed, which has made me pretty good money in the past.  Then along comes VR.  I have had somewhat success with it, if the right dictation is placed on it.  The problem comes in when a company tries to put anything and everything on VR that does not belong there.  It defeats the purpose of using it in the first place. I am told that the computer calculates the accuracy of a report.  If it is 80% or more, it goes on VR.  ...

VR Is NOT Twice As Fast As Straight Typing!
Nov 28, 2012

I used to love my job, being an at-home medical transcriptionist. I used to make around $20-25 an hour straight typing and thought being an at-home medical transcriptionist was the best job ever! The flexibility of working from home and flexing my hours was great! I could get the kids off to school, work for a couple of hours, go shopping, work for a couple of hours, just so I made production requirements and everything was great! Unfortunately, things changed and they started making us ...

Oct 04, 2011

Or do I just need to bite the bullet and start doing VR?   My job is straight typing 9-5 M-F!  Perfect right?  Not anymore.  I'm an eTransplus employee and the big shot MQ bought them out, so I can either go to work for them or I can look at other jobs with other companies.  I doubt there are any straight typing jobs left right?  If so, they will probably switch over soon huh? Would like to know if anyone is doing ok on VR with the company you're wit ...

My Quality For Straight Typing Is Spot On, But ASR ....
Oct 22, 2012

Little errors here and there. The influence of what SR has put out on what should be heard and the constant struggle with how much of the SR ouptut is wrong along with the loss of train of thought from having to stop so many times to correct, delete, move takes its toll. Some of the errors I see, I can barely believe I left. Although, I probably didn't delete enough. SR, in so many ways, is going to be the death of me. :-{ ...
