Rate decrease - MDI-MT-wondering

Has anyone received a raise lately from MedQuist? I've been working for Medquist for 9 years. I was roped into becoming a medical editor 4 years ago with the promise of making more money because I wouldn't be typing. They told me that I would be 80% of my base MT pay....then 1 year later they decreased it to 70% of base pay and then now 60% of my base pay. When I complained about this to my supervisor, she said that she was told that Medquist was going to somehow update the software wi ...

Husband just called, was listening to Dave Ramsey - A man called the show and stated his wife's income had decreased by $900/month. Ramsey was astounded and asked why? Man explained that his wife was a medical transcriptionist. It's now been on national radio, not a secret anymore. ...

Has anyone been notified that they are not producing enough so their cpl is being cut? Have you been reduced/demoted to prn? Is the reason you have not produced enough because there is seldom work available? I see trouble ahead. ...

to quit. I gave my notice last week. CCM called and talked me into staying. I said I would try it out a couple of more weeks. The next day I got 2 ASR reports, one a 9 minute report with over 200 corrections and a 4 minute report with 56 corrections. I was so ticked off that I just logged off on Friday and haven't logged back in since. I haven't checked my e-mail, so I don't know if I have been fired yet. This newest screwing makes me ...

I have racked my brain trying to figure this out and it's driving me nuts. When I let up off the foot pedal the dictation goes back too far. Anybody out there know? Please help. ...

I would add an antibiotic to decrease the *colony counter* ulcers in her foot and try to speed up the healing with doxycycline. ...

just wondering if anybody else in west has been noting marked decrease in work volumes. My major acct used to have, at least on weekends, 200, 300, and even in the 400 numbers of jobs and lately the weekend work has maybe been 50 at a maximum. I guess just another acct gone to India. ...

Their way of figuring it is so convoluted. I wonder if they keep us all low like that. ...

Can anyone tell me if line rate pay is comparable to getting paid by the audio minute? Is 0.50 or 1.00 normal? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks! ...

Would someone please tell me what the "piece rate" is on the check stub - and where does it show line rate? Thank you. ...

Just got mine, had one last pay period, well duh-------nobody explained it to me!! ...

I've been out of the industry and on unemployment for over a year, and have just been contacted by a previous employer to work for them again. The catch? I was very well paid by this company and I will be discussing my rate of pay tomorrow with the payroll manager. I am gunshy about asking for too much money because I now know what slim pickings it is out there. Should I just jump in and ask for the same rate as before? I was paid by the page, does anyone ...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can give me an exact cents per line that they make at DSG, documentation services group. Let me know! I've just received email that i can now test with them and was wondering. Also how was the test? ...

I was offered a second shift job doing QA. They pay by the hour, but I am not sure what the going rate is. What should I ask for? ...

Has anyone noticed an unfamiliar rate in the ultipro system when viewing your pto hours available? Mine is way off unless they dramatically dropped my PTO pay rate without me knowing yet. I have not received the dreaded 6th months pto rate change for january in the mail. I contacted payroll and waiting for a response back. ...

What a shock to wake up this morning and realize the almighty "Q" has just sent me hurling into bancruptcy! My husband lost his $75,000/year job 3 months ago and just found another but only making $8.50/hour. As we don't live beyond our means, we thought that would at least let us catch up on the major bills. But now I'm going from $1.65 a report to $1.20 a report. That's a MAJOR cut in pay ($1,000 to $3,000 PER MONTH). This is devastating and I feel ...

I am thinking of taking an IC position. Can anyone tell me the going rate of how much to charge a company? Thanks! ...

I recently read a job posting that required 150 lph for straight type and 225 for VR - Does this make sense ? These companies are using the excuse that we should be able to produce "twice as many lines" with VR - thus - HALF the pay. If that is truly the case, then why in the world would the line requirement not reflect that as well. Obviously, these companies know VR is not nearly as productive for the MT as they claim; however, I would venture to guess with the MT making hal ...

After nearly a decade of working with Webmedx, I like many others am looking for extra work to supplement what I will be losing with Nuance. I have a chance to pick up some part-time IC work, but I have no idea what a good acute care IC rate is. Ten years ago, I charged $0.12/line. Is this still an okay rate? More? Less? I don't want to ask for too much and have them laugh at me, but I also don't want to sell myself short. Thanks for any advice! ...

Wow, I'm an independent contractor and was looking at the job seekers board to maybe take on another part time job. The rate of pay is still 7 to 8 cents per line?? This seems a bit ridiciulous. I mean 10 years ago when I started with an online company, this is the rate of pay they started you out at! I work for local doctors and charge starting out no less than 11 cents per line, especially as an independent contractor where you get no benefits or paid time off. &nb ...

If you are an IC, what is the going rate to charge? I am at the beginning of researching to do get my own clients again but am out of the loop of what to charge. This would be only as myself and not a big company. Thanks. ...

Just wondering what to expect. My company is moving some docs to VR and I have heard that the pay will be a straight line rate. I worked very briefly for a company who paid one rate for reading the report and another rate when corrections had to be made. Just hoping to get some input on how many people out there are paid just a flat rate. Can you make any money doing this or do you find you have to work longer hours for less money? Is there anyone out there who is h ...

Can anyone tell me where to find my pay rate? I checked UltiPro and cannot find it there. For the past 3 pay periods, my pay has decreased approximately 10 dollars each pay period and I am still doing the same amount of lines that I always do. Im wondering if they decreased my pay rate without telling me. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you! ...

Can someone tell me what the pay rate for ASR compared to transcription? TIA ...

On a report to us today that someone had a 700+ LPH rate. When I questioned it, I was told that they didn't know how that could be either, it was on the management report they got. THAT is the very reason why I don't trust these reports they shove at us, I won't even look at them anymore. I'm glad I'm done with this place in just a few more days. As I've said so many times before....this company was NEVER a transcription company. They are a SOFTW ...

guess it doesn't matter how fast we can go per hour anymore since we no longer get PTO! LOL! No wonder they were very late to tell some of us our new PTO rates - because they knew it wouldn't matter anymore............... ...
