I guess it depends on where you are located

It also depends on how much experience you have and how you manage your time.  It is easy to become a work-a-holic in this field.  However, if you gain experience, and choose wisely you will make great money.  There must be an interest though not just a way to stay home.  There are so many variables and also what one person considers decent and what another considers decent can be two different things.

    I think it depends on where you are located...

    You may want to talk to an accountant about some of these questions.


    Depends on the VR I guess.
    It's always a little slower when you first start an account, but once I'm used to an account I was edit up to 650 lph at 4 cpl.  There are people who can do more than that but I think more starts getting missed after that point.  I can straight type around 180-200 lph.
    guess it depends
    on your experience and what you'll settle for. I always ask for more.
    Guess it depends
    on who your account lead is, mine is lousy. Pay is always on time and correct but other things going on I dont particularly care for. Do like the company tho so will try and get on another account. I really think the issue is with the lead.
    I guess it just depends
    on all the variables for each person, i.e. account they are on, doctors dictating, and how fast they can acclamate to a new program? What about Lee Perfect. Any comments on the company?
    I guess it depends on who you are doing it for - sm
    I did prn work last year for .10 a line, it was all overflow. I was quite happy with .10 though. It was not stat work, just do it when you can and get it done as soon as you can of course. It was not difficult work (DS) and I made up templates which made it even more of a money maker for me. So I made some extra cash and got paid more than I do normally. It was a win-win for me. They know they can rely on me if they have more overflow in the future.
    I guess it just depends on where you work
    I get a yearly raise automatically after a short evaluation in the office.
    I guess it depends on what your error was.

    Depends on your accounts I guess.
    I have been running in and out, but still manage to work a full day. Absolutely love it here.
    guess it depends on the account

    my primary and my backup both have frequent OT.   I am part time and no, no PTO.


    I guess it all depends on the type of EMR used..sm
    I worked in a multispecialty clinic that went to the point and click/template EMR. My work gradually dwindled until I was let go 4 months later.
    sorry to hear that. I guess it depends on the account
    just like anything else. Some hospital accounts use several services, so the quality of drafts will differ from poor to excellent, depending on who works on the account.

    Overall, I love the platform and it is very user friendly.
    ouucchh. i thought $1.25 was low. lol guess it depends
    i know i wouldn't type for that. however, some may be thrilled with that rate.


    Well I guess it depends on what account you get on because I have set schedule (nm)

    I find the sound quality not so great on some accounts. I guess it depends on what account you get
    on. 
    I've easily done 600, but it depends on the way a company counts lines and it depends on the
    dictators. Obviously, if you have a good share of ESL, there is no way you could ever do 600 or 700. On really difficult ones, I usually run around 400 lines an hour and I have been working on this platform for 3 years.

    There was an article about how "wonderful" this company is in the Baltimore Business Journal earlier this year. Wonderful, my hiney!! The checks bounce, they are an Indian-owned company, the work is beyond horrible. They also have a couple of American companies that they use as a backdoor, and use an American as the representative front person.
    They are located in Ohio....sm
    An offshoot of one of the major health systems here in the Akron area. Were just recently started and are trying to get their feet wet in the national arena. Primarily were doing nothing but local work just a few months ago and very disorganized at the time. Don't know what they're like now. Benefits seemed good, comparable, but were just getting started. Originally wanted 150 lph with 98% quality and a rather harsh grading scale. For instance, medical word misuse was minus 5 percentage points, omitted (consequential) dictation minus 5 points, medical misspelling minus 3 points, and so on.... Hope this helps!
    Is this company located in NYC???
    If it is, I'm very surprised by this. A few years ago they were quite reputable.

    Joanna is the owner, she lives in Spain at the moment and that is probably why the caller ID did what it did.  The way I understood it is Joanna and she has one FT IC who works with/for her.  HTH.

    Were they located in the Northeast?
    who were called Annette and Babette, so that's rather a coincidence.  They ran their own MTSO from their basement located in Northeast tristate area. Blast from the past, for sure!

    I checked the archives but could find nothing on the above-mentioned company.  If you have any information, could you please share your experience.  Thank you for your time.
