If only I was paid by the correction. I would be rich!

Laughing my butt off! How long do you think this will last? Yeah, they will be begging people to cover shifts and work overtime and I will be saying, no dice, not my shift. Good luck to ya! ...

Yep, that's right and I'm full-time! I knew I should have listened to you all but I took the job anyway, hoping that it might be different for me. You all were right! I've emailed the manager more than once and each time she says she'll be adding more accounts but obviously that's not going to happen. I've been with them about 2 months now and certainly can't make a living on this! What to do, what to do..... ...

I am scoping out a big box for my next move to under the overpass down the street. ...

I had a thought with the recent decision to not take a non-medical transcription job. I told the owner of the transcription company that I needed to be paid 8 cpl for this job and she was only paying 6-1/2 cpl. I told her that my expenses for everything are rising, food, shelter, gas etc. and she told me that the account that I would be doing this work for demands low cost for their transcription because of the work being sent to India, Pakistan, and the Philippines. This is a huge constructi ...

A million times throughout the report. How do you keep you keep your sanity or make a decentl living with all these dictators? ...

This is a correction and a reply that I got today: I typed: His dialysis and primary care doctor are at Keck USC. Correction: His dialysis and primary care doctor is at Keck USC. I questioned this correction and here is the answer I got: "The correction appears to me to be correct. It should be a singular verb. "Doctor" is a singular noun. Implies that the dialysis and primary doc is one and the same." Am I off my rock ...

or does VR generally require a lot of corrections? Is one platform better than another? I have done just a little bit of VR on EditScript and for the most part it requires very, very few corrections. ...

I forgot to clock out today and can't remember how to fix that in time schedule or whatever it is called. Anyone remember? ...

How many others got notified that they've been overpaid for ASR lines, and as of Jan 1 the rate is going to be put back to 60% of the transcription base rate. Supposedly they found this during a recent audit? How does this company stay in business??? ...

The company I saw an ad for was Administrative "Assistance" (out of Michigan) - not Administrative "Associates" - my mistake! ...

Just had 5 corrections reversed because a QC misunderstood the account specs. How do they get penalized for their mistakes? ...

Pay has been cut by 25%, told we are lucky to have a job, that we have easy accounts, and that our pay is a "market correction". That's encouragement from an employer! ...

Has anyone figured out how the h____ this new trending and correction report percentage is working on Fiesa. Are they cherry picking the most difficult doctors to audit and skipping over the physicians that would balance the percentage score. That thing is so skewed, I cannot figure out for the life of me what it is suppose to reveal. It is totally biased against the MLS from what I can understand. ...

I was curious if any other MTs are getting paid by the minute too. Replies are welcomed. I am required to get 131 minutes for an 8 hour shift. We get incentive if over. We also use VR, so that helps, and we have weighted doctors. Thanks, MeL ...

Recently a guy from the state called asking if the MTSO regularly "corrects" MT work. The answer is... what is the answer? I mean, an MT corrects their own work, to the best of their ability. If you get stumped on some bad audio or weird name or medication or medical term and Google fails, Word Help board fails, you send it to QA, and they try to fill in the final blanks. But is that really "correction"? Because the MT (if they aren't slacking and/or incompetent) knew they didn't kno ...

I'm going nuts. Fortunately I don't get this guy often, but it's 11 minutes of him dictating and correcting himself and starting his thoughts over again. Aaaaagggghhhh!!!!! Whew!! Thanks. I just had to get that off my chest. My cats are tired of hearing me shout. And no, he's NOT an ESL . ...

When we run out of jobs we get paid min wage. Do you think we will get that for this. I don't want to have to make up a whole day's worth of hours or use my PTO for this. ...

How do you get someone to pay you that has not paid you? Getting really aggravated about this and don't know what to do. I have been given every excuse in the book! ...

I've been working with my company for almost a year now and i'm wondering if I should start looking around at other compaines. I graduated from M-Tec last summer and got a job about a month later, they started me at 0.055 cpl, then in December bumped me up to 0.06 cpl. Since then I have been getting paid the same, while working a lot more. I just want to know if this is good and I should just stick with it, or look somewhere else. Any advice is appreciated! ...

I could really use some advice. I worked for a company for 6 months and then quit when accounts were being lost. I am owed over $3000.00 (I quit over 6 months ago). I know of 2 other ICs who worked for this company and the total owed to all of us is over $10,000. We have been given every excuse in the book. We have been told the company has gone out of business, that a AmerAssist loan was being sought in order to pay us, etc. We have contacted the Sheriff's Department in her state abo ...

Just curious... how are QA paid? Some are paid by the line and others are paid by the hour.. is there any other way? ...

I accepted a part-time job to supplement my regular MT income a few weeks ago from a girl who was advertising here on MTStars. It's been great, fairly easy work and an excellent extra income. I guess I should have known it was too good to be true. I was expecting payment last week but am told she can't pay me until she gets paid. Now, who in their right mind would hire people to do their work when they can't pay on a specific date? Why would you hire some ...

Does anybody wonder why we don't get paid by the hour like other highly-skilled secretaries and editors? This line business is a joke! Why should we get penalized for the bad dictation? Many years ago, we had a client with dictators from ****. I called up the director of medical records and apologized for all the blanks. She told me not to worry about it. She said she had a box of pens on her desk and she made the doctors take a pen and fill in all t ...

Has anyone gotten paid by TTD for the most recent pay date (the 25th of this month)? This is my first paycheck from them and I have not received it yet. Wondering how long it usually takes? ...

Anyone who had not received their pay 03/23 who has received it today please post here. It would be nice to hear when and if you got paid. ...

STAY AWAY FROM PRECISE MEDICAL AND MEDIGRAFIX THEY WILL NOT PAY YOU. ...

. . . we have to retype the entire VR job because it is 99% WRONG. It seems like it is getting worse instead of better. The last week practically every job has every fifth word right but the rest is wrong. At some point it quits being voice recognition and is pure transcription. Any time we have to fix more than 10% of any job = straight typing. And they wonder why we HATE VR? It was nothing more than a ploy to get 50% of the MTs pay. ...
