If you work for Transcend - you can find your QA score on the link to your daily line and the percent is taking by the number of lines you typed for that day I do believe. It shows the percent of reports sent to QA.

At MQ we have a QA submission rate and a QA quality score. The QTL does monthly audits to come up with our QA score which is emailed to us.

I know where to find the score, but I'm wondering how it's - actually calculated, what the formula is? nm

I do not know who you work for or if there is much cross-over between MTSOs, but here is what MQ uses to calculate their QA Score.

Is it CHAD score - or CHADS score? On search I find CHAD, CHADS, and CHADS2.

Pay Calculated
Feb 08, 2010

Can anybody tell me how Transcend and KeyStrokes calculate their pay?  I want to get a PT job and am considering applying at these two MTSOs.  Right now I'm at MQ and there they pay you on your lines vs hours worked.  If line count pay is less, they then supplement your pay based on total hours worked to get you to minimum wage.  If the line count pay is higher, you get that pay with no supplemental wage.  ...

convoluted formula on an e-mail, but it really is not written so the average person could figure it out.   When I tried some reality calculations, it came to less than $5.00 an hour even though I had a good line count for me.  Is this just another way to hide what is really happening from us?  ...

Well.,...score Below 98 .
Dec 20, 2013

I guess I am screwed.  In all my years I have never had this many "Major Errors".  Guess I have just been stupid my whole life and didn't know it.  Score below 98 and since they have been monitoring me quite a lot the last week or so I imagine they are done with me for the quarter.  Some of these errors are errors, but REALLY?  If/of is kind of a typo in my book.  SR had it one way and I did fail to catch it, but really had no change in context. How can they ex ...


Score Below 99%
Jan 15, 2014

My score for the quarter was 98.3%.  I will probably get fired.  All my working life (25 years) I always scored excellent on quality.  When I look at the post audit though, I am mostly at 100%.  It makes me feel kind of worthless.  ...

What is the QA score requirement?  I thought it was 99%.  I had three audits today that scored 99.75% and was told that if I proofread the jobs better before I sent them I would catch these small mistakes (one per job).  Are we supposed to get 100% now?  Just curious.  TIA! ...


Low Score On FIESA
May 09, 2013

My FIESA scores are VERY low this quarter with a lot of points being taken off for errors. Has anyone been in a situation where at the end of the quarter they had a score that was below 98% and what happened? Is that instant termination? This is astonishing to me as I will be here for 4 years and never have had low scores ever and have never been in this predicament before. Thank you for any replies. ...

Score Just Keeps Dropping
Aug 21, 2013

No matter how hard I try these days I cannot get my accuracy back to what it has been for years. I always maintained 99% or higher, mostly always right at 100% but now I cannot even get to 98% with everyone they keep marking me off for.  It has gotten ridiculous.  I have never ever had this many reports audited and marked for not having an s at the end of a word.  So disheartening when I feel I am doing so good.  Been at this for a very long time and never had anything like t ...
