The only time I made - good money sm

Posted: Mar 12th, 2021 - 3:38 pm In Reply to: How has anyone EVER made money in medical transcription? - MT66

is when I had my very own accounts and no middleman. I was making a dollar a page for clinic notes a paragraph long. I was charging a dollar per page and had tons of templates. I also was making 11 cpl for very easy dictators and I knew all the carbon copies and I was using MS Word, so nothing to hold me up or wait to download, etc.

Now, almost 35 years later, I'm lucky to make 10 or 11 an hour and that's if I work super hard but the average is 8 dollars an hour. These companies are ripping us off paying by production. We need to be paid per hour. End of story.
