Your one clinic does that. It's certainly not the norm by any means.

General Hosp...er General T-Tech
LOL
call attorney general and do not work until paid
that is BULL
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...
She probably means the lack of work.
Always had a ton of work to make up, but never had any work to make it up with...always got e-mails telling me everything looked good, BUT I needed to get my line counts...it was literally impossible for me on my account and my supervisor never got in touch with me when I e-mailed multiple times about getting other accounts. Got multiple e-mails about how good I was doing and just regular company e-mails daily, but never anything about another account. I got frustrated with never going over $300 every two weeks working 25 hours a week. 
Other than that everything was great about the company. No complaints other than that. Would still be there if that wasn't the case.
IC means they cannot tell you WHEN to do the work, only X amount
Otherwise by IRS definition you ARE an employee. I have been seeing a lot of ads lately where companies want ICs for particular hours, and I can't believe people fall for that. The definition of IC versus employee is simple: Who has control? If you have control, you are IC. If the company has control, you are an employee.
If there is no work everyday almost all day, that means how does anybody?
how can you meet any kind of line count? I can't being on and off all day.
i love EHR!!! means I can work from anywhere

What it means: "Not enough US MT's who want to work
Reading between-the-lines:
'--- which is exactly what we planned when we dropped US MT pay, so we'd have an *excuse* to choose offshore first, US workers second.'
That eScription ad sure goes against 'Truth-in-advertising', doesn't it?
80% of work is VR/20% is straight which means...
probably 95% is VR or it is an overflow account...but you are right, just saw an IC for 8 cpl for 3rd shift!!!
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 !
Clinic work
It is for clinic work
DRC has clinic work. nm

I take it you still work for them? Are you on clinic or

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.
outsourcing means the work is sent outside the office
so if they do not have an inhouse transcriptionist, they outsource the work to a service or IC. Off shoring is work done somewhere outside U.S. However, most people do not make a distinction between the two. Outsourcing CAN BE offshoring and often is used interchangeably.
She means asking MTs to work OT but not record hours
not her own
Which means you can get a lot of lines by doing shoddy work? nm

"Just me" means just me and no one else, that simple, go to work

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

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!

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.
I'm making 9.5 for clinic work
nm
I work for local clinic 17 cpl
But it's only two doctors and another MT and I split the work.
Poster means work any possible time you can to get in your lines.
