Powerscribe - any way to make money on this?

I've heard of more MTs NOT making any money than making money. I've worked from home before but had to work full-time from home and part time at the hospital just to pay the bills then ended up quitting at home and went back to the hospital full time because I could make more money working from the hospital 40 hours than working 60 hours between the two. I loved working from home but I couldn't make any money at it. But at the time I only had 2 years' ...

Hello! Was just wondering about supplementing my MT work with just editing and wondering if it was possible to not only earn good extra $ with it, but if there are actually companies that just need this and how difficult it is to learn how to do it? Any ideas, opinions, etc., greatly appreciated! Thanks! ...

I have had it..The past 2 paychecks I made approximately $200.00 less..constantly getting work I have never done before from hospitals I have never done because there is no work in my hospitals, constantly having to run searches in DoQManage for reports because I have never done those hospitals before..then we are told there is a certain amount of lines/hour we have to do..there is NOT enough time in an hour to do all this plus transcribe. MQ..JUST LEAVE US ALONE AND LET US TRANSCRIBE..Let ...

Just wondering. If you don't mind my asking... I'm thinking about working from home again, but last time I did this I didn't make any money at it. That was when I only had 2 years' experience though. I have 6 now. This time around I HAVE to make a certain amount to pay my bills! Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! ...

I type my butt off full time and don't make anywhere close to $2k a month. This is the first time I've gotten to see it since it's the first time they've had enough work for me to make my line count. They don't pay for spaces, plus they have a weird way of counting lines. Time to send out resumes. I am not typing my way into carpal tunnel for this pittance they call a paycheck. Amphion people, are you making decent money there? ...

I dont understand why you all are having such a hard time making money. My mom makes good money. Whats up? ...

Is anyone even able to make minimum wage here? This is ridiculous!!!!!!! ...

Take all your suits, the ones raking in a quarter million to a million a year with bonuses, etc, and cut their pay in half, and that is still being generous. They don't need to be paid that much. With all your fancy business degrees, you would think they would teach you some common sense. It seems that they teach you how to squeeze as much money out of a company and its lesser employees before running it to the ground, then move on. ...

So I have been working for private doctors for the past few years. Prior to that I worked for national companies doing straight transcription. Rates back then were 8 to 10 cpl, with 8 cpl being pretty low. Now 8 cpl seems to be where companies tap off. I am seeing that the companies that pay 8 cpl for straight transcription also offer 4 cpl for VRE. To be honest, VRE sounds nice to me because it will save my hands a lot of pain! After 14 years of being an M ...

I have been using M*Modal for about a month and a half now and I was really trying to give it a shot, but I am really doubting that I can ever make good money with this program. I used to be able to transcribe approximately 25 min/hour and these were docs that went pretty fast, so I usually got 250 to 300 lines/hour @ 9/line, so I made about 22.50 to 27.00/hr. Now with M*modal, they dropped the line rate 4/line and there is just no way that I ...

I was offered a job as QA for Focus at 4 cpl. Can you make any money on cpl? I have always worked QA on an hourly wage. Thanks for any response. ...

over 26 years of experience, i have three jobs and guess what? NO WORK, NO WORK, NO WORK!!!!! How does one meet their financial needs when you cannot make a living off of 3 JOBS???????? I am working vr on one of them and just started so I am not making diddly there. So I have two part-times to supplement, but still NO WORK!! I JUST WANT TO TYPE!!!!! I JUST WANT TO PAY MY BILLS!!!! Thanks for letting me vent!!!!!! ...

I know everyone loves Escription, but just wondering if there were other platforms out there. ...

I believe these MT schools are just trying to make money. ...

Now I am talking about decent money, $40,000 a year or more. This is clinic work at 8 cpl for transcription and 5 cpl for VR. Bear in mind that the majority of the work (85%) is VR and that 5 cpl is not too bad for VR. BUT, the majority of the reports are also in the 10 second range. ...

How are the benefits, health insurance, paid time off, vacation, etc. Thanks ...

You would think they would have their own department that goes out to look for work for their employees. This just doesn't seem like an appropriate ad to be placed here. JMHO. ...

Had several jobs off my regular account this morning,,,all STANDARDS, clear dictators...NOT FAIR ...

Do you make more money as an MT or a coder in general? I know it depends on the certification you have and how many years and whether you are paid by the line or hour, but overall, those of you who have been MTs and coders, do you make more money coding or MT/editing? ...

Is it just me or are these companies making it impossible to make any money the way the line count is set up? I can type all day and make very close to minimum wage. It never was this way before. ...

Those of you who claim to make TONS OF MONEY TYPING.... You are not straight typing MTs under regular circumstances IF I believe you...and I don't. You probably work 7 days a week, all hours of the day like most MTs. You DO NOT work a regular 8-hour day, 5 days a week and make that much money. If that were true...there would be much more competition. The only perk is being at home. Period...End of story. Stop trying to sell me your ocean front pro ...

Amidst nationwide protests about the minimum wage at fast-food eateries, one burger joint in the Detroit metropolitan area has decided to raise its starting salary to $15. According to the Daily Beast, Moo Cluck Moo, a Michigan eatery, had already been paying employees an unheard of $12 per hour. Fast-food workers around the country have been holding protests to encourage companies and restaurant owners to raise staff pay. Moo Cluck Moo owners Brian Parker and Harry Moorhouse chose to give their ...

When did hospital jobs get almost as bad as working for a service? When I have had hospital MT jobs before, we were either paid hourly, or hourly base pay plus incentive. It was possible to make $22 to $25 an hour. I have also worked on production for a service and for myself and I can usually do 200 lph very easily, 250 lph if I'm concentrating, 300-350 lph if I'm concentrating and getting good dictation (that I'm familiar with and know what they are going to say ...

.07 cpl, paying once a month with a fee if direct deposit is utilized? Geez, thought my job was hideous... I could literally make more money working minimum wage 40 hours a week. It is sad what this has come too. 19 years of hard work and dedication to watch it waste away... ...

I have always used eScription which is a much friendiler platform. This is the first time I have used this program and I'll be lucky to make $50 a day. I realize it is something new for me, but from those who use it regularly, am many lines can you average an hour. I need some hope here. ...

Is it possible to make any money doing editing for 0.03 a line? I was offered a position with them and it is 90-95% editing. I have never done editing before and am just wondering if it is something that is worth trying. It is only part-time. I have been trying to find something, but I am not having any luck. TIA ...

I'm new to PS and am getting 0.65 per report (radiology). I have searched the archives and cant really find much on pay for PS. I guess I just want to know if my current company is pulling the wool over my eyes now that they have gone to PS. Does anyone know the average per report rate for PS? Or do you get paid per line?
