I dont think you will make more than that for clinic work.
Posted By: MQMT on 2009-03-18
In Reply to: If you seriously make 10 cpl, could you please e-mail - No where near 10 cpl.
I make 10 cpl at the Q, but have been there 12 years and was at that rate when my prior company was bought out.
There are people who make that, but not for clinic work and probably not for just starting at a company. I have been applying like crazy and the best I came up with was 8 cpl for Basic 4 and 9 cpl for straight OPs.
Thats 15 years experience.

Hey dont feel bad. I "sold" out too. I was in the exact same position as you...only clinic wor
and I am grateful that they gave me my big break. Having any acute experience on your resume seems to motivate people to at least test you. I can tell you this.. there were a lot of tests I never passed either, even with 14 years of MT experience so I just wasnt up to speed so I did gain that. I also learned to appreciate when I did find a good company. I definitely had something to compare it to. In this world, sometimes you have to do what you have to do. Somehow pride and taking a stand doesnt put food on my table either. We can hold out and not work there but it isnt going to change the world. It is what it is and I'm looking out for my family. Best of luck to you. Give your foot in the door and then happily walk out of it LOL
I dont know what that means. I am an SE. I dont sit and wait for work I come back in when it is
there so I never had to deal with Amherst when there was no work because I just stopped working and did other things. My feeling is if this doesnt work there are other jobs out there.
I am still there. Why dont you try it and then you will know and make
up your own mind.
Keystrokes clinic MTs, do you make good money?
IME it's hard to make good money doing clinic when paid by the line; some of the notes are only two sentences long. Just wondering if it's any better at Keystrokes, i.e., good combination of short and long notes.
Its sad that we dont believe MTs can make good money at this job....
In the past 7 years that I have been an at-home IC (left my hospital job), I have made no less than $50k and this year, will hit my all-time high of $62K. There are still good accounts out there, with great dictators that pay .10 to .11 cpl and if you are fast, with great macros and expanders, you can still make $40-$50/hr. Experience and reliability are what get you top dollar and there are companies willing to pay. Its sad we doubt those that make the good money. Maybe there is a tad bit of jealousy there!
Curious, can you make more money working for a hospital rather than a clinic?
I've never really did acute care and curious?
Mortgage? On an MT's wages? Dont make me laff!

Dont agree. It is never to late to try to make life
wasted. With your attitude, it probably is too late for you, you dont seem to have the initiative to try to make it better. If you want to be a victim, go ahead. Maybe you should find a Victims-R-Us board.
Dont they make you feel like a child with the threatening emails?

Your posts make absolutely no sense. Glad I dont

Medical field is 24/7 work unless you work for a clinic or stand alone operation.
I just look at the other cool people working holidays and weekends in the ICU, ER, paramedics,and am glad to be there. When you work in a hospital for a length of time, it becomes a necessary evil to show up at the worst possible times.
Having a family or a life you'd miss from Friday at 5 PM to Monday at 8 PM must be hard and
I think that there is a place for you where they can meet your requirements (M-F). There are plenty of those jobs.
I used to work there and know people who still do...they have no work on clinic account but if you
are acute care or have experience in acute care you will be fine...
I make 4 cents a line, work part and make
over $500 a week on part.
Clinic work
Amphion has both clinic work and acute care. They are wonderful to work for, and I would highly recommend them to anyone!
Clinic work
Can anyone tell me companies that have clinic work?
I did not do just clinic work. SM
I worked at a large teaching facility of 800 beds. I did everything from speech therapy, pain clinic, wound care, surgery, H&P, consults, discharges, physical therapy, letters, oncology, you name it. This was a huge facility. And a teaching facility to boot! I was never rude to the woman or anything of that nature. She actually told me that she lays in bed all day with her laptop doing this work. Maybe she fell out of bed the day I interviewed with her, and it put her in a bad mood. :)
All worked out well in the end because I ended up getting a managerial position that pays $52/year along with incentive and overtime.
I work on it for a clinic and really like it. sm
It took me a few days to get used to it, but the line count is good and I use ShortHand with it. If it is the same clinic, you are lucky. I have been on it for 5 years. They are not usually hiring for this account as no one wants to leave it but my lead told me that they have added some doctors. Good luck !

Does TTS have clinic work in the a.m.
Trying to get that instead of evenings. Thanks.
I do PT clinic work for them...
my account always has lots of work. The platform I am on is Chartnet which is absolutely my favorite platform - very user friendly. 
If you only do clinic work,
you are lucky to get those rates. Acute care is much more difficult and that is what most of us get offered.

If you do clinic work, Yes...sm
Usually anyone doing clinic work instead of acute care can get the Mon-Fri schedule because most clinics don't send in transcription over the weekend hours, and/or have a longer TAT time for their reports than an acute care hospital does. I love clinic work and like Mon-Fri, so that's where I stay.
It has taken away clinic MT work.
My doctor's office uses it. It is a 300-doctor clinic and they have no MTs.
EMR has not affected me personally because I do acute care but it certainly has caused MTs to lose jobs.
What to charge for clinic work...
I was just called by a local clinic and asked to do some overflow clinic work - they are behind and are looking to hire - I'm not interested in leaving my acute care for a national, but wouldn't mind helping them out. I was asked how much to charge and I haven't any idea. Is anyone willing to share what they charge for doing clinic work? I would work at home using my own equipment.
I also do overflow work for a clinic..
I charge 10 cpl, but I know that their other replacement charges 12 cpl. If it were a specialty clinic (mine currently is family practice and easy work), I would charge no less than 12 cpl. I'm not sure but it may also depend on where you live geographically. I live in Idaho so I'm sure since our cost of living here is fairly cheap and that would be the standard. If you live in a larger place, maybe you could easily ask for more. Just giving you my input..
CLINIC WORK CHARGES
I DO CLINIC WORK ON THE WEST COAST AND IN NEVADA. I CHARGE 0.14/LINE 65 CHARACTERS PER LINE. SPACES, BOLD, ITALICS, AND UNDERLINES COUNT (I USE INSTANT TEXT TO BILL AND SET IT UP THAT WAY SO IT KEEPS TRACK FOR ME. I HAVE FRIENDS WHO CHARGE 0.15/LINE AND 0.12/LINE FOR THE SAME AND ONE WHO CHARGES 0.17/LINE FOR 60 CHARACTER LINE, NO SPACES. IT DEPENDS. I PICK UP, PRINT, DELIVER, FAX (NO EXTRA CHARGE FOR FAXING) AND STORE THEIR WORK, BACK-UP, ETC. GOOD LUCK.
is this acute or clinic work? nm
Question about clinic work...
Are there any companies with clinic work where the work is always available in the mornings and you do not have to wait around all day for whenever the doctors turn their dictations in (which ends up being usually in the late afternoon)? Or is this typical of clinic work in general? Any info would be appreciated. Thank you!
Companies with clinic work
Are there any companies with clinic work where the work is available all the time (and not necessarily assigned in batches at certain times of the day)? Thank you!
Pretty sure they do have some clinic work (nm)

What do think of their program for clinic work? nm
No message.
Anyone work for Keystrokes (Clinic)....
Can anyone tell me anything about this company? How is the pay (on time???). Is there plenty of work? I was told I would be assigned to one doctor.... what happens if a doc does not dictate one day, can I get a second doc? Any other help would be appreciated.
TIA
Is ER work clinic rate?
I was hired to do clinic wotk but over half my work is ER with ESL doctors and interns. Shouldn't this be paid at a higher rate, or am I dreaming.
I only get 0.07/cpl for multi-clinic work--

Does anyone know of any companies that have clinic work?
Hi, I would like to do clinic work instead of acute care. I would like to know if anyone know of any companies that have clinic work. Your reply back will be highly appreciated! Thank you so much!
Also, sorry if this post shows up twice. I tried posting this question already but I don't see it so I thought I would try posting it again....Again, thank you!
Amphion is mostly clinic work. NM

SecureMTsource has clinic work.

I need to go back to clinic MT work
It seems like all VR is are ESL physicians. I think I need to go back to standard typing clinic work again so that I can pay my bills. My wrists will hate me for it though

Who is paying better for clinic work?
I have 10+ yrs experience also but and I am a slow typer so clinic work is about the only way I can make any kind of a line count. I have been avoiding the 7cpl clinic work because I can't find anything that pays better. Where are these clinic jobs anyway?
Keystrokes and clinic work....sm
Does Keystrokes offer clinic work? Thanks
Well to me it seems to be the other way around, I want clinic work and it seemes all that's
out there is acute, go figure:(
Funny you should say that...M-F clinic work is exactly what I do;) sm
Like one poster said, the Su-Th or Tu-Sat scheduling seems to have become trendy.
I'm very content with the company and schedule I have. I just keep my eyes on the board to see what is available.

Hi,
I worked there for few months and realized that its not a good place to work at all. Specially the Owners of the Company is the biggest problem to work there as he is not a professional at all. They are loosing clients recently and not good to go there
