Editing rates of pay range from about 4 to 6 cpl.
Unless you go to work for a different company there shouldn't be much of a learning curve, but any different company that you go to work for is going to have a learning curve because that's just part of starting a new job. I don't think anyone should be compensated any more for training and it's a darn good motivator to get the ball rollin.
Can someone give me a range of how well
Execuscribe pays? TIA
Can you give an approximate pay range? Thanks! nm
At least give me a range, 7-9 cpl okay, we will keep talking. 3-4 cpl no need to go further. I
:P
MQ and Spheris line rates for SR/trans?
Can anyone tell me what editing/trans rates are for these companies? Are there any production incentives?
Spheris line rates & incentives
Some employees at Spheris are now being told that production and QA incentives will be eliminated. The line rate is variable, but in general, the very least you will accept. This used to be a wonderful company. Very little concern now for either employees, quality of work, or serving best interests of clients. Many are leaving.
Rates are lower than 20 years ago. nm

It is hard to give Spheris facts, since there are multiple units to it. Leave

I call 5 years a chance. Give me the
old MDI where I was not a number, I was a human. I am now a disposable piece of equipment, a robot that they flip the switch to on or off as they want. I do not have all those FABULOUS days, and wonderful weekends that I hear about. I used to call the office but after 5 years I do not think anyone there even remembers my name. This is big business at its worst. Money gets to some people and makes them feel they are better than us peons who make them that money. I deal with people that I have never heard of before and some that are not that nice.
My price of gas tripled and my pay checks have been cut in half.
Don't think she gets it, she is just so uptight about Xanax...give her a few more years...sm
then she might actually relax enough to understand when a joke is made and not go off the deep end. The really sad thing is, this is not the only board she has made the Xanax comments about. Get real Jan, or maybe it's mar, that's who she reminds me of.
Over 4 years with Spheris. NM

i worked for spheris 4 years sm
i worked in radiology part of spheris. i had a great supervisor. the pay is ok. my problem was no raises, or if they don't want to give raises, at least acknowledge people some how. there were a lot of times when we had to help cover while people were out sick or hurricane katrina stuff. i had been there 4 years and never a raise. (no one got raises). another big issue for me was they send work to india. i don't like that at all. that's one reason why i quit. i now work for a company as an IC and they don't send their work overseas. they are much more personable. i worked for Spheris when it was edix, and i liked it much better when it was edix.
I worked for Spheris for 4 years
They expect you to keep your required linecount weekly, pay on time, pay is on low side, they offshore, insurance is not good, supervisors and QA are good. Overall they are decent.
yes, at Spheris, for 4 years now, 80+ reports
nm
Because I do not have the 5 years they require for rad. Spheris
took me on with 1 year experience and now I have 3-1/2 years total. I am thinking of applying anyway to see what they would say, especially because they know that my SIL trained me.
Well, I worked for Spheris for three years ...
Speaking of Spheris from the perspective of a past employee, I wasn't impressed at all with the company in its role as my employer. The best that I can describe their corporate mentality is that of a sweatshop -- low wages; poor, disorganized, unresponsive, and often inexperienced management; woefully inadequate benefits; and only minimally helpful QA.
However, if you're asking about the quality of transcription, I found that for the most part my colleagues were very quality oriented, most very experienced. Despite a lack of validation on all fronts, i.e. pay, appreciation, etc., they took pride in their work and put out quality documents.
I hope this helps.
I made in the low 50s at Spheris 4 years ago.
Yes, you can.
Worked for Spheris a couple of years ago
I worked for Spheris and would not recommend it to anyone who wants the least bit of flexibility in their schedule. You are expected to punch in and out to the minute on an online timeclock according to a very strict preset schedule. You aren't allowed to deviate from it without jumping through hoops and getting time off approved or adjusting your schedule, and you can't ask earlier than 2 weeks before the date you want changed. Kinda puts a damper on making vacation plans that may never be approved. I prefer a more open 12-hour window to work my 8 hours in, with no one keeping electronic tabs on my 24/7. I'll bet the FBI knows less about what their employees are doing on a minute-by-minute basis. I do have to say that their platform is pretty awesome, though. Wish the company I'm at now had it.
Taking the steps to leave Spheris - 10 years!
I left EDiX/Spheris after 8 years there to come to Webmedx. SM
I moved over here in 2003 because I knew the recruiter and she told me it was a great place to work. She was right. The benefits are fair, the work plentiful, the bosses fantastic, and the QA staff wonderful. Good luck!
Agree.. What is up with Spheris..They hire new grads yet I have over 14 years experience in acute
care, multiple specialities, yet..they said I didnt meet the qualifications. WHAT???? Why arent they honest and tell the truth. Do not tell me I am not qualified when I have worked for two hospitals doing all work types including radiology for all those years. Their ad said at least one year of experience. I guess 14 did not count for anything. The funny thing was that the hospital I was working for at the time had just signed them on to do our overflow, having switched from MedQuist. I just find it ironic that they were hired by our hospital which I worked for and had experience at, yet, I was not qualified enough. What a joke!!
been with spheris 4.5 years, easy platform, good clinic account

JLG pay range?
I have a telephone interview on Monday with JLG. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the telephone interview consists of and maybe the pay range (I know an exact pay cannot be given since it's based on individual factors).
Thanks!
i believe range is 9-11 cpl.

I don't know that they have a range. They
asked me how much I wanted, I said, and they said they could do that. More than 8 cpl and there is a shift differential.
Pay range, per line, MDI
Can anyone out there share this information? What determines there line; 65 with or without spaces and the pay range for this. Is there platform productive? Thanks.
I have been looking at four companies that range from sm
$1.00 per report plus .50 for each link to 1.35 per report but links are not paid. The average seems to be $1.10 or so. It is still good money when you think about it. I type 15-20 reports an hour, so even at $1.10 I make more than the hourly at most hospitals and I don't have to leave my house.

I made in the range of $50,000.00
I have some of my own accounts and do very low volume for an online company that I started the end of last year just to get some experience online. I think if you have the experience and the dedication, you can easily make $50,000.00 per year doing transcription. I wouldn't know about working for nationals though because I only tried one, and I did not like the platform. It was not productive. I can see where someone putting in 40 hours and working on a platform they like as an employee and receiving incentives could make $45,000.00. I do not think that is unreachable, I just don't do nationals or acute care. Maybe acute care pays more, I'm not sure?????
I also make in the $30 range at KS
NM.
It should be though. A company can have a pay range, but
they can also pay someone more than the range. If the pay range is usually 8 cpl and I get 10 I'm not going to discuss that with another MT because then they will ask for more money or say so and so makes 10 cpl they can't I have more than 8. The only person I discuss my pay with is DH.
Transtech QA Pay range
Can some very kind TT QA person (or anyone who knows) email me with the 'range' of pay for QA - third shift? Thanks so much.
Oracle pay, anybody know the range?
just curious what a good pay is with this company.
I had a QA person tell me she was in the 350 range
when she was typing and before she moved into QA. I've only gone up to 300 on occasion and that's on an account with templates. Straight typing I'm more in line with the OP in the 200 to 250 range. I keep trying, though. Like the rest of you, I find if I go too fast, then stupid mistakes come through.
QA Pay Range for Hourly?
Hi,
Looking for input on hourly range of pay for doing QA, say for a job where you are full time and get most if not all of a standard benefit package.
Thanks,

I make much more than $17 an hour, more in the $30 range. sm
You sold yourself short. Did you pass their test?
Things that are good are sometimes worth waiting for. Why do you call it BS when you know nothing about the company other than you applied? Geesh. This must be Keystroke's week to be bashed. Who is next week?
If you have a good range of dictators...sm
I do radiology and acute care for a facility. There are some doctors I am glad I get paid by minute and there are some that I wish I was not so it all equals out. I read an article some time back about being paid by the minute of dictation is really the more fair way for Transcriptionist to be paid. I have 3-4 docs that I speed up so I do their lines in half the time but still get paid for the whole time. It works for me.
Does anyone know the pay range for decent companies,
including VR. Guess I have to bite the bullet and learn how to do it, but would lke to be paid a decent line rate. I am experienced.
Thanks in advance.
