No, they're home on the range in the ole wild west.nm
you're so lucky...
to have nothing better to worry about than a harmless human typo. And if you're the person who made the typo, we forgive you (at least most of us do and the ones who don't were just going to find something to be petty about anyway).
you're lucky
I also found Steve to be quite rude when I called the office and he answered the phone. Didn't have anyone to complain to, though, since his wife is the owner or co-owner.
Heh - maybe if we're lucky, the U.S. will go to war
Serve the suckers right. And maybe we'd get our livelihood back, to where we could earn an actual living on it, too.
You're one of the lucky ones
I know many, many people, myself included who have just recently lost their jobs to EMR. I thought the that it would never happen to me because I was told by my employer, oh, we'll still need you to do this and this and blah, blah, blah, and just as quick as a wink we were let go.
Surely you're smart enough to figure it out...
If companies show the MT's work, that would pretty much be comprising the privacy of patients.
THINK ABOUT IT.
You're lucky. Mine are usually way behind. It's

If you're lucky they will not reply.
Employment with Focus is an experience most come to regret.
You're lucky to get that. I get 5 days and 6
paid holidays, but I don't necessarily get the holiday off. If our schedule falls on a holiday we are expected to work it unless we have been approved for PTO, and you have to ask months ahead of time. We are able to take the day at another time w/o pay, since we already got paid for it.
So you're one of the lucky ones who hasn't
taken a cut in pay for working longer & harder? It's sad to not be able to feel compassion for your fellow MTs who are struggling to make ends meet when their pay is being cut & the cost of living is rising. The CEOs of the MT corporations aren't going hungry, but some of our fellow MTs are really struggling. My compassion lies with them.
If you get sent home in a week, you're lucky, SM
I considered applying for an MT home-based job for a local hospital in my town. They wanted me to work in-house 8-5 for FOUR TO SIX MONTHS, even though I have 10+ years of experience and worked there several years ago, so was familiar with the docs. No thanks, especially with 2 kids at home that would need day care to the tune of $750 or so per month. I passed (the money wasn't great anyhow, but the insurance was pretty decent).
I do hear that in some parts of the country, there are still some good home-based jobs. Unfortunately, more and more hospitals seem to be either going the ASR route or outsourcing.
You're lucky you got hired hourly before they did away with it.

Gosh, you're lucky! I'd love to make that much!
I do hope to at least get 9 cents a line somewhere anyway.
Even if you're FT, you'll be lucky to have enough work to get your lines,

Can only find that they're IC only, starting pay is 8 cpl, nonnegotiable, and they were using DSS

If you're extremely lucky you get 9cp. Experience doesn't seem to count much anymore. nm

You're extremely lucky. I bet there aren't 10 of us out here employed by a hospital, working f

Do you recommend starting with clinic notes or acute care when just starting in the MT field?
!I realize this question may be better suited for the new MT board, but this board is my favorite)
I am considering accepting an acute care position, even though I am just out of MT school. However, I don't want the learning curve to be so steep that I fail before I even begin. I would also like to have a smaller pool of dictators to transcribe from as opposed to many.
Also, are there more ESLs in acute care versus clinic/dr office work?
What has your experience been? Would you do it differently?
Thanks for any insight!
Lucky You ... I was not so lucky to work with that platform
Meditech - it was awful. I kept getting promised that my account was going to ChartMatrix, but it never happened and the Meditech system was SO slow. I loved TH, the people, etc. - so if you can get an account that is on ChartMatrix - hop on it. But, avoid the accounts that are on Meditech because I don't think they are EVER going to convert (and I waited quite awhile - couldn't take it any more).
What is pay range for OSI? nm
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.
What is pay range for Transcend for MT & VR? nm

No one makes $0.07. The range is sm
.08 to 0.105, usually starting around 0.085 or 0.09.
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,

Does anyone know the pay range for Oracle?

Can you give an approximate pay range? Thanks! nm
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.
At least give me a range, 7-9 cpl okay, we will keep talking. 3-4 cpl no need to go further. I
:P
Depends on the account I think. The range is $1.05-$1.50. sm
I average 22 reports an hour.
Any idea what the rate range is for

she asked about pay range, not about opinions

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.
