I am thinking of getting into medical transcription but all I read on here is negative posts about how little work is available and how you are all getting paid less than you were last year. Now, please don't flame me, I know this is a cheeky question, but to be quite honest ".08 cpl" doesn't mean much to me. Would anyone mind telling me what they actually earn per hour (when the work is there) and how many hours per day they generally work. It will just give me an id ...
Been at a cushy happy place clinic job for a few years, no audits, laid back, nice. Making 18 d/h. Type the same stuff, over and over. Boring, but no nail biting. I produce 300+/hr. Should I take a position from home? Will I be making a mistake? I need some opinions pleeease. ...
I've been out of the transcription loop for the last 2 years while I've been getting my registered nursing degree. I did transcription for 20 years until I got tired of the nonsense. I'm done with school, studying to take my boards, but have been offered an hourly part-time position. Can someone tell me what hourly pay is going for now? I was production paid for most of my transcribing years for the last few years I took an hourly employee ...
I'm re-applying to MQ as I desperately need a job. My question is, are you all able to make at least $10.00 per hour still?? I ask because in searching around, it looks like $10.00 is the best I'm going to be able to do. I do radiology so I will probably end up doing a lot of editing which I have never done before, so I'm just curious to see if $10.00 is realistic doing both straight typing and/or editing? Any info appreciated. Such a shame that its c ...
Can anybody please tell me what is a fair hourly rate for a transcriptionist in a single-doctor office in Texas? The last time I worked as an MT in a clinic was 18 years ago. I then worked for a large hospital and made about $9 more an hour than my highest clinic pay. After getting laid off, I worked for N for a few months and have been out of the MT field for a little over a year. Thanks in advance! ...
Hi all. I'm a newbie to these boards.
I've been reading all the posts here about the VR programs. More production + more hours = less pay.
Does anyone here work for a company that has gone to an hourly rate instead of pay per line? And if so, what are your thoughts/experience on this? I'm working for a company that has changed us all over to hourly pay and I'm still very unhappy. ...
Also, how much experience do Account Manager/Shift Manager types have? Years ago I worked for a couple of MTSOs and my "supervisors" had less experience than me (and would have to ask me to figure out blanks in reports) so I'm guessing its often just a matter of how long you've been there and who you know and sometimes how much you're willing to put up with (one supervisor bragged that she worked about 20 hours a day). ...
... it is still not possible to make minimum wage even for those of us who edit VR at lightning speed, because there is no work during many of the shifts (mine). I've been promised another account, told no other shift is available. A line rate increase will not help me at all. They have sent most of the work overseas now, lost a few accounts, and cannot afford to lose all US MTs.
I am aware of nine others besides me, who have lawyers. Quick, numerous complaints from ...
Last week I asked what you all thought was a fair hourly rate for a one-doctor clinic MT. I went to the interview on Tuesday. The job ad was for a "medical records transcriptionist." The office uses an EMR. The nurse practitioner uses the EMR, but the doctor uses a piece of paper that resembles the EMR screen and checks the appropriate boxes and writes additional comments. The job is to take those papers and input the data in the EMR. It's not actual transcription, no headset or foot pedal ...
I am truly at a loss to understand why my pay continues to decline. I thought I already hit rockbottom. I am averaging far, far less than I did 30 years ago. ...
Just a question.....Tried to see where it was on the Q sites, but I just don't have the time to look. Anyone know if Easter Sunday is one of those days where we get paid 'extra' to work? ...
for transcriptionists. Always been paid by line count production and now I am looking at an hourly rate. Company won't tell me pay rate until interview. Afraid that it will only be like $10 an hour and don't want to bother with interview if it will be too low. ...
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! ...
I just started with MModal a few months ago and I'm searching for the job offer that states the amount of $$$ we receive per hour in PTO. Meanwhile, I thought I would come here and ask. Is it $10 or $12 per hour? I'm thinking it's one of those. I could be getting these numbers mixed up with training pay though. ...
I am wondering if anyone would share the going hourly rate (being paid by the hour, not by the line) for QA? How many lines an hour are required to get the rate?
TIA ...
