a son who was misdiagnosed with ADHD and we were put through the ringer with these tests, I only answer what I know, I am a dinosaur who came up through the hospital system, switched from nursing to getting associates in Health Informations Management because I came down with lupus and just could not do the physical things. I worked way before PCs, when we used typewriters, white out, etc. Worked acute care and radiology and psychiatry, even autopsies for MEs. I only state this because it seems, very respectfully, that most MTs just want to google up the first answer and go with it, but I had research EVERYTHING because we had no internet. When we finally started keeping records on Apple Computers, that was BIGG!!! please, sometimes it seems that instead of being a help site, it is a contest/game show site and I have seen lots of misinformation that might just cost someone a job. The only good part about getting OLDER is growing in wisdom and experience....so I try to make the most of that part of life, anyway! :-) And best to all, being at home, I hope this forum can be a circle of friends.

that's neat, but it is - Conners

Why would you not care? --- - Conners name is on the book

I thought the idea here was to help each other with reliable sources and good references.

If you are too attached to your own impressions, you may overlook good information. You may even pass misinformation on to others seeking help.

if you read the passage, - it references C. Keith Conners, Ph.D

Lets see if i make 3/6 a line that comes to 250 x 0.03 = 7.50 an hour -- wow minimum wage. 150 x 0.06 = 9.00 an hour -- McDonald's wages. At 4/7 250 x 0.04 = 10.00 an hour - Do you see the different 1 cents makes? 150 x 0.07 = 10.50 an hour even if you did slightly better and could do 300 lines an hour editing you would only get 9.00 an hour. So to make any money there, you would have to literally kill yourself. TTS IS NO GOOD. period end of sto ...

I posted this question below but fear it will be buried. To those of you just hired at Focus, how's the pay scale? I currently make 8.5 straight/4.5 editing. Is it comparable to, higher than or lower than that? I'd never ask anyone to divulge their pay scale but I'm trying to get a feel for if it's better than where I'm at. TIA to anyone willing to give me a ballpark hint here! ...

Experienced MT looking for new position. Reading posts seems like Webmedx might be a good choice. Can anyone give me an idea of earning potential for someone like me with 25+ years experience.

Any advice is welcomed! ...

I am wanting to submit a proposal to my company owner about implementing an incentive-based pay scale to help with some issues we are having with people not working consistently and to reward those who are putting in overtime, etc. I am having a hard time finding any information on this as far as like a sample scale. As far as I understand it you make your base pay say for example 7 cpl for the first x lines, then for the next y lines you make an additional 0.025 cpl and so on up the line... If ...

I'm thinking of applying to Transcend, but while searching the archives I see posts saying that they only pay 8 cpl for transcription and 4 cpl for VR. Is this true? I have over 8 years of experience in acute care and don't want to waste my time if this is the case. Thanks! ...

Just got an offer from MedQuist for Tier 2 but at a pay rate of 0.08/line with what is, in my opinion, a difficult work schedule for someone with a young family. Am going to see if they can sweeten the deal but wanted to find out from those of you currently working for them what your experience is with their pay rate. I currently have 0.11 and 0.145 with other providers but need additional work to cover the nut. What is your experience with the shift work of 12-6 and 4-10? Do you physicall ...

For *pain* scale (1-10), i was taught to add the range if not dictated. Example: D: Pain was a 5. T: Pain was a 5/10. I'm not familiar with *function* scale. This is a spine surgeon. This particular patient is having neck and shoulder issues (if that matters). Is there a specific *function* scale? If so, what is the range and do you add it like the pain scale, or do you guys just type as dictated without adding the range? ...

As best I can calculate, the Indian MTs are started at about $40/week. This is not an error. I looked at both the application from Nuance (which can be found by googling) as well as the exchange rate. So when you see all the "extras" they are offered, try not to be jealous; they can't buy groceries with those extras. Apparently they are as dissatisfied with the management of the MTSOs as are we Americans. The question seems to be how many will continue to work for such low salaries and ...

I'm a current Webmedx employee and looking to work elsewhere, as I can no longer support myself with this company even with a second job. I'm wondering what the pay scales are for Medquist and Transcend. I've contacted many, many MT companies over the last few weeks and they are all slow to (or never) respond with pay inquiries, so I hope those experienced with these companies can help provide answers I'm looking for. What I'm looking for: Pay scale for manual, VR, ince ...

My pay rate did not change with this new pay scale. Did anybody else get a pay cut? And so much for being certified. It wouldn't have helped me so I'm glad I never spent the money.
