If Im not mistaken - the max is

6.5 VR and 10 straight.

Of course every tier 3 does not make the same. Its based on experience, skills and/or years worked as an MT etc.

6 and 10 - not 6.5

At least that is what they told me.

Well, I said "If I am not mistaken." They have the - rates in the new hire packet.

I was offered the top salary, had a death in the family and didn't feel I could make the job transition at that point, called back after things settled down and was told I could have a job but at a lower pay rate. I said, no thanks.

What I was offered last year... - CB

When I applied as a Tier 3 last year, I was offered 4 and 9.75. When I declined, they asked why and (one) reason was the 4 cpl, but they said they couldn't go above it. I assumed for new hires?

Of course, since then, I've been receiving those sometimes monthly phone calls and/or emails asking me to apply again...

Everyone starts out with 4 cpl for VR, but they - will adjust it according to your

tier level after you have been working a while. I started with 4 and asked for an increase via HR after my first paycheck and was raised to 5. I am a tier 3 and simply told them I could not live off 4cpl. A little while later I asked for another raise via my CCM and got it.

I dont understand their reasoning for starting everyone at 4cpl, but thats the way its done.

VR used to pay 70% of your base, then 60% - proddedcattle

of your base, then they made it 4 CPL across the board, except some of the oldies still get the 60%, or 6 cpl, but that is the first thing I expect to disappear by the end of the year. Which is why I'll be taking retirement when I am 62 years 1 second old.

Actually it used to be 80% - ancient one

Back when ASR was voluntary. And we still could make more typing back then.

You can call yourself an MT and work for: 1. A single provider nonspecialist. 2. A multiprovider/multispeciality clinic. 3. A primary hospital. 4. A secondary hospital. 5. A TERTIARY hospital. You can do "ops" with any of these jobs. However, at a tertiary hospital you will have patients who have failed treatment at primary and secondary hospitals. Tertiary hospitals are teaching and research institutions where you will encounter research p ...

I was just informed that I HAD to tier up. Has anybody else been told that one? I don't want to tier up. I don't get much NJA and I like the accounts I work on. I was told that I MIGHT get a raise if I did, but there was no guarantee. Why would I want to tier up without getting a raise doing the next tier's work? I just don't get it and I never will. ...

Do you type ALL work types, including tier 1 and tier 2, correct? My CCM implied that tier 3 does ONLY operative reports?? I'm tier 2 and I think I would like to try OP reports, as I've been tier 2 for quite a while. Don't want to NOT do consults and H&Ps though. Not expecting a raise of course, but would just like to try something different. And maybe get NJA less often. What do you all think? If you do type all, what pe ...

This really sucks because those reports have the highest line counts, while Tier 3 does all the testing reports such as cardiology, eeg, cath reports, and surgeries. While straight typing pay may be higher for Tier 3, everyone makes the same for VR. My vent for the day. Sorry if I offended anyone. ...

What might be happening is MM is keeping high producing Tier 3 employees and India will get all the easier work. Tier 3's in America will do the hardest dictations and worst dictators. The MME's in America will then be correcting more work because India will be doing everything else. Just trying to figure out what is going on. Also, I think MM had to do something about the no work situation, either get more accounts or layoffs. They decided layoffs. Than ...

I hit the ceiling last week and quit after 12 years with MQ part-time. I started as a tier 3 and ended as a tier 3. Topped out. I was making close to $20/hr and ended at $10/hr thanks to ASR. My submission rate was apparently too high for them for Jan and Feb. Well, what do they expect? Shyte dictation equals shyte transcription, but I'll be damned if I am going to risk someone's life just to fill in a blank, and this was before they rolled out this "First ...

I work for another MTSO too that doesn't have the tier system. I get just whatever report comes into my job pool from clinic to ops. I've been at MQ for about 3 years now. CCM keeps wanting me to tier up to tier 3 so I can start doing the ops notes because we don't have enough 3s right now. However, I won't get a raise by tiering up. To me the only incentive to tier up would be more money. After I told CCM that I wouldn ...

I despise even doing it at all but I want out of this place and I think having it will help my chances of finding a different job. Do you have to be Tier 3 or is that not even a consideration to ADHI? On that note, are there any Tier 2's here who have their CMT? Do you actually get that so-called extra incentive at MQ for being one? I know some other companies offer an incentive. ...

Anyone have advice about taking the Tier 3 test? I know taking it won't mean much at MQ but it will mean something to me and I want to give it a try. The woman that gave me information about it said it can go into the next day. Does it really take that long? I work 2 jobs and am trying to figure out when to take it. The instructions for the test sound more difficult than the test itself. ...

I took the Tier 3 test and passed. I don't know what my actual score was, but I have a phone interview later this week, and I was wanting to get an idea of what to expect as far as working at M*Modal. I know they used to be MQ and I know there are many, MANY disgruntled current and former employees. Honestly, all I'm looking for in a company these days is regular, on-time paychecks, the average rate per line (0.08 or better), and steady work. I'm okay with ...

Has anybody ever passed the tier 2 test?? This is my second attempt at passing it and it seems impossible. You can't slow the transcription. You can't understand the words before and after the privacy tones. It's like they don't want you to pass, succeed, and reach a higher level. My regular work reports are easier to do than anything on that test, even the ESL doctors! ...

Just wondering if it is worth it to test up to tier 3 or not. I wouldn't mind getting more in my work pool (especially as things have been a bit slim lately with the holidays), but had heard there was no pay increase for moving up a tier, plus was worried that I'd have to spend more time in research for the first while getting used to the new work, hence slow production down. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance! ...

This job has served me well for the purpose I intended. I was able to stay home with my kids while they were growing up and supplement the household income. Now, after being with this company since 1994, I don't want to tier up or become an MME. I just want to do my job and then forget about it. I am at the point now where I really want to retire as we don't need a supplemental income any longer. I see all these new "opportunities" at MM and I just don't care to ...
