Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced - Challenged

headset for VR?   Thanks!

Why would the headset be different for VR versus regular transcription? I just leave my headset off totally, as I am home alone, and I can hear just fine without a headset at all. No privacy issue there. Otherwise I just have a pair from RadioShak. I used to like the stethescope type, but now something over the ears. I hear that Boise are good, but expensive.

I use Bose headphones, but they're pricey. Someone on here a while ago that they had gotten a pair from Radioshack that were in the $40 range that they thought were really good. You might check there.

Priced Too Low.
Nov 10, 2014

Hello all.  I have been a transcriptionist for many years, but not working for myself as an IC until recently.  I picked up an account with five doctors.  Four of them are fantastic, but the fifth one is problematic.  He doesn't dictate the entire report, but rather wants the MT to copy and paste from old reports.  These are my issues:  It is not just a simple copy and paste.  I need to go back over it and weed out any duplicate/contradicting  informa ...

Why I Would NOT Recommend ATSI
Feb 19, 2010

Hello all! I am new to this forum and would just like to share my thoughts with you as I have read through some of your postings about different MT companies out there, like "Should I work here?" So, as nicely as I can say it, in a matter of my opinion:  My Top Ten Reasons why I would NOT recommend ATSI: 1. The pay. Straight CPL no matter if it's days, nights, weekends, holidays. 2. No raises, incentives, or bonuses. 3. NOT employee status...EVER...even after 90 days, you will ...

Would anybody recommend working for M*Modal?  Right now I work for a hospital/clinic and so many of the doctors have gone to front end speech and doing their own reports, and my job has basically turned into an editor.  I love typing and was just wondering what M*Modal was like and what the benefits are like.  Do you have to take the standard test, etc.  Do they pay well?  My main interest is insurance benefits for myself and my husband.  He goes on Medicare in 3 ye ...
