Transcribe Team? They are offering 0.40 to 0.65 per audio minute. Strange?
At 0.40 per minute, if it takes you 3 hours to - sm
[ In Reply To ..]transcribe 60 minutes - a whopping $8 an hour.
Years ago, I remember making over a dollar per minute, but can't - sm
[ In Reply To ..]remember the exact amount. Even at over a dollar a minute, if you get stuck with a lot of fast dictators, you take a major screwing, so at 40 to 65 cents, I don't see how you could even consistently make minimum wage. My god, these greedy companies make me sick.
Last hospital job - was $2 a digital minute
[ In Reply To ..]Those were the days! At the minimum, I made $15 an hour. Now I barely break $8 an hour.
Is this editing or straight transcription? If it's editing, that's a little better, but still bad. Unless their docs like to flip through papers and take their own sweet time!

ICs Want To Hear From You
May 30, 2014
I recently took a job as an IC, thinking it would be great to make my own schedule. HOWEVER, I have to work when the work is there. There is no making my own schedule. The work flow dictates when I work. There is no work on Monday or Tuesday. Maybe a few reports trickle in late Tues, but then more work comes late Wednesday afternoon, then work Thurs, Fri, Sat, and by Sunday no work again. Account is for clinic docs, no acute care. Is this the same experience you other ICs are having. I&# ...

So I'm still learning the in's and out's of transcribing, hoping that once I finish this course and get my certification and start working it will get easier. Do the doctors ever get the mush out of their mouth????

I thought I was doing so good, I have reread this report about 5 ...
I Clearly Hear The Dictator Say
Jan 26, 2010
Coumadin 30 mg per day. Now, I want to make sure I'm not dreaming here, but that is completely incorrect, right? Maybe I'm having a brain lapse (been an MT for 20 years) but I want to make sure my thinking is correct that this dosage would probably be lethal? I'm going to leave a blank for the dosage, but I just wanted to double check with my MT friends. I have listened to it many times, and she is positively saying "30 mg per day." TIA!! ...

Want To Hear From Happy MTs
Apr 07, 2010
Hello everyone, I am about to complete my MT training with an online school and I am finding that many people seem very unhappy with their positions, the companies they work for, their pay, etc. I am curious to know just how feasible it is to expect to find a job, be happy with it, and actually make a decent paycheck. Is there anyone out there who is happy with their current job and is willing to tell me about it? I have been doing lots and lots of research online and have been hard-pressed to ...

What Do You Do When You Can't Hear Or Understand?
Nov 17, 2010
For the first time in a long time, I was in the cesspool. I spent 3 hours with an ESL serial dictator, that was speaking so softly I couldn't hear most of what he was saying, and what I could hear I couldn't understand. In one of the reports I only got 5 random words after spending a half-hour on it - and it was only 20 seconds long. What should we do in cases like this - when you literally just Can't Get It, and not for lack of trying. ...
