oh no, what is the quota for the day? Please let
us know if it was a mistake, thanks.
QA quota
When I worked at Amphion, we were expected to do 100 reports per 8-hour shift. Most often I did at least 80 which could be a stretch depending on what else was going on so I understand your concern.
OTI gives you a weekly quota. sm
You work when you want during the week. They ask you to commit to one weekend day.
Furthermore, I was on only one account, and worked that same account every day. The work was plentiful. Since I wasn't hopping around on various accounts, I customized everything and made a zillion macros. It was very good for money.
It was the best job I ever worked. I had to leave because I needed benefits.
DSG - QA, line quota, how they pay Qs
Questions for DSG QA folks. Do they pay per hour or by line? I heard someone say by the line, but then someone else say they had to give feedback. I have never worked for someplace that paid you by the line AND expected you to give feedback also. If it is by the line, do they have a daily quota?
Thanks
cannot make quota
Has anybody out there ever used all accessible shortcuts, typed steadily, and seen after a grueling 8, 9, 10 hours lines equalling approx 77 per hour?  I refuse to think myself as doing something wrong: Just want to hear from ANYBODY who has done what s/he can, yet finds him/herself always unable to meet productivity. I am at a crossroads right now so it is a good time to leave transcription, but I cannot believe my forays into at-home land yield the same results: exhaustion, impossible quotas, and the sneaking suspicion that the nearly-industry-wide policy of not paying for headers is cruel, immoral, and unethical--CONSIDERABLE quality time is spent on getting this info right, and what automatically populates must often be, umm, massaged by our exhausted fingers. I would love to hear any comments from anybody about how they met productivity. I would need to increase by almost 100% in order to barely tread water: I cannot do it. Just wondering how all you VERY hard-working people survive. Wish there were an emoticon for throwing in the towel. 
can't make quota
I can't make mine, either. A 15-16 minute dication will only yield me about 100 lines. I'm fed up, but scared to death to leave this field and embark on a new career at my age.
Yes I cannot meet my quota
Hope we pick up soon
QA is not a step up. They make less than the MTs and are on quota.

Most companies require a certain quota be met
Even as an IC I committed myself to 180 reports a day. I do anywhere from 180-225. I did not sign a contract but did commit to it.
Thanks for your help, but I don't think I could ever meet the quota needed. sm
I am working all the time editing/fixing and trying to remember all the rules for each account. I do not see with the way the platform is ever being able to make the amount needed to keep my insurance, and they have already extended my insurance for me before. I thought when I started doing more editing I might be able to get more lines, but then I would have to do double the lines, and with the way the reports are looking when I see them there is too much fixing to ever get there. It looks like when the computer does not know what the doctor is saying in plain English it just types whatever it wants. It is actually amusing how it comes up with a whole sentence of unrelated words.
THANKS! Now as soon as I make my line quota
and can afford something other than thrift stores or Walmart I WILL check them out. LOL
Seriously, thanks for the link. I will keep it.
Are they giving you grief over not making quota?

I work at a hospital and we have a quota of 15 per hour which is 120 per day. nm

SIGNING CONTRACT REPORT QUOTA?
ANYONE SIGN A CONTRACT FOR REQUIRED REPORTS COMPLETED IN A DAY FOR FT? WORRIED I AM BITING OFF MORE THAN I CAN CHEW!
The problem now is that I have a QUOTA and that is what they're concerned about. nm
,,
No, they did not just raise the minimum at TT. The quota is 5500 per week for FT
and I have not had any problem whatsoever reaching it.
Good luck.
You will not lose benefits for one time missing quota.
Call your ROM or TL, and they will point you in the right direction. I think you have a full three months to make up your quota.
Transcend is a wonderful company. E-mail me if you want further information.
MDI-MD hires part-time, and you have a 24-hour window to do your quota. nm

Considering some companies do give a weekly quota, maybe you shouldn't speak

I love my job but I think I lost my insurance benefits. Has anyone else not met the pay period quota
one time and had their insurance taken away? I think it happened to me. I fell short this payperiod on my time ($90) as I was ill for a couple of days and had no PTO time to use. Now, my insurance premiums were not taken out so I am afraid they canceled my insurance, which was the largest reason I have stayed. I needed the good insurance etc..not to mention that I just like working there and my supervisors. I did make more than enough for them to have taken out the premiums so I feel like this was just an excuse to cancel it. Now, if I have to wait another 120 days to qualify again, I will have to end up quitting and that is not a great feeling, but I know I can get a job somewhere else and not have to wait so long to have insurance again. I'm just sickened. I can't believe they would do this in one pay period. I work 7 days a week usually, all hours of the day and night and I just can't grasp they would do this. I have worked there over 2 years. So, do they really do this, for anyone who has had this happen before. Maybe, they are just suspending the insurance this pay period but I don't see how they can stop it one pay period and start it back in 2 weeks on the next pay period. Anyway, stressed out!!!
Are you saying that you are immediately
no message
You will get set up immediately with
no problems and they are the best company I have worked for as far as helping solve problems immediately.
The one immediately above us. nm
I would be looking for another job immediately...sm
Good luck on the matter.
Sure, we will all email you immediately. Are you really
ewwwwww!!
If it was me, I would have told them no way immediately. nm
You showed great restraint.
I quit immediately.
You got paid for the straight typing, no templates.
They advertise quite a lot and that's probably the reason why!
Need ananswer immediately, please!!
On Friday of last week, I drove almost 100 miles to an interview that was supposed to be a subcontractor position. I was asked to come in for the day and type some reports to get familiar with the account and to see if I wanted to do it. I drove the 100 miles, typed for the company. Keeping in mind that I was a subcontractor and could work and quit when I wanted, I decided to give it a try. As soon as I got home, she called and wanted me to work on Saturday to get the hospital caught it. So, I transcribed on Saturday. Then, I received a call on Sunday requesting that I type. So, I typed on Sunday. I got phone calls all day yesterday, Monday, pleading that I work and the hospital is seeing that I am logged on, but no work is coming in. The work was not coming in because I received Japanese/Chinese discent dictators and it literally took me an hour a report. I received calls all day long. To work, change things, work more, and I was told now that I was their go-to girl and needed me to work, work, work. I could not log off because I would get calls. So, today, which is Tuesday, their system broke down and when they finally fixed it, guess what, they needed me to work an additional 8 hours. This was after I got up early to work, but due to their system break down, I was hours behind. After listening to 3 messages on my answering machine, I sent an email telling her I have accepted another position. Four hours after I sent her the email, she called me up and asked why I was not working for her and that she is going to lose her account. I asked her if she got my email. SHE SAID SHE GOT MY EMAIL, BUT DID NOT REALIZE I WAS NOT WORKING FOR HER ANYMORE. How ridiculous is this? She said she needed me to log on now because I was her go-to girl and she was going to lose her account. I am exhaused, but she needs me until Friday or she will lose her account. I am a subcontractor. Also, I signed no papers and she could shaft me for my money if I stay. WHAT SHOULD I DO? SHOULD I LOG IN AND WORK UNTIL FRIDAY AND HOPE SHE PAYS ME OR JUST MOVE ON? She sounded desperate, but she has worked me out all ready.
I quit immediately, too.
It won't be a blip on the radar of D's sell-out, unfortunately, but at least I know I did the right thing for myself and my belief system/ethics.
Congratulations to us, and anyone else who is in a position to do the same!
I'd see a red flag immediately if a company sm
waited a year to test me. From everything you said, it sounds like this company is desperately trying to fill a quota of US MTs to land/keep this account. Anyone born in the USA would do. If you were sincere in not wanting to work for companies that offshore, you should say so clearly right at the start and not go through all the traveling, testing, and ironing! I'm sorry this turned out to be such a negative for you. Best to do research beforehand.
I heard back immediately
I got a one sentence email saying I didn't have enough experience. Must be pretty difficult work. I have been typing all work types for 19 years, especially psych and radiology..the two on the list. I have also done ESL in every job I have ever been employed. Oh well, asked her to keep my name in the barrell!
start immediately to think about ESLs........

I was immediately offered a position with
Webmedx after the interview. I didn't have to test based on my experience and score on the verbal testing.
If you applied through TransHealth they still seem to be operating as two separate companies and dealing with a different group of people. I applied to them before the merge and I never heard from them after submitting my resume.
Stop typing immediately....and see what happens.
They'll be blowing your phone up. Tell them, when they put your check in the bank, you'll start back typing, because you don't type for free. They gave you a date you will get paid and they should honor that. In the meantime, be looking for something else.
You are right. I am going to implement this title immediately. Thank you very much! nm

I would immediately eliminate Focus.
It is Indian run, low pay, and constant turnover. I haven't heard much good about Diskriter either, though certainly better than Focus. KS is good for some, not for others. It wasn't a good fit for me. Axolotol pays better than any of them, better benefits. The account they are hiring for has a high percentage of very challenging ESL dictators. The company itself is great though.
All of you should stop working immediately so that they can see how valuable
you are. Let them work it out then.
docking $10 per report for mistakes. I immediately sent in

This discussion will cease immediately. You are WAY off base. We do not
cater to any company in the manner you describe just because a company may be a sponsor. The reason that we remove content about ANY company is when posters use this site as a sounding board of their complaints posting to the point where the thread flames. At that point, I will remove the thread and tell posters to take discussion to email until things settle down.
If you have problems with a company, you need to take it up with them. Sounding off on this forum about the inner workings of any company is innapropriate. Posters need to use tact when posting.
Many of you know me well enough by now that I would not remove posts just because some MTSO tells me to.

I was told hourly start to accrue PTO immediately...
production employees after 1 year. BUT - that doesn't mean you can't take a vacation, just that you don't get paid. When I worked a factory job some years ago, you didn't get any vacation the first year - paid or unpaid!
Focus Infomatics - Experienced MT's Needed Immediately!
I work for Focus and Bobbi is the HR lady not a manager. I spoke to her when I applied and she is very nice. Also, editing is 4 cents a line, not 3.
I've been with Focus for several months now and enjoy it. I always have lots of work and get paid on time.
I heard Back Immediately - Posted by Blossom
I am not at all surprised to hear this, as this has also happened to me. I was given some insight into this by an HR representative for one of the major companies...Many of the experienced MT/QA's do not view the AAMT-BOS as an absolute bible. This was meant as a guideline, but many companies embrace as if it is written gospel. Apparently, the most of experienced QA/MT's remember the times when we were actually paid, and if the lack of work was due to their fault, we were paid for downtime. I guess us old-timers have to just lay down and die because we are too old to retrain in another field.
Contact your state labor board immediately!

I just Googled SmartMed and immediately got info on Summit..(sm)
Good luck!
When you leave a company, is your insurance canceled immediately?
I'm assuming I'll still be getting my premium taken out of my check up to the end, so does the insurance go til the end of the month? Want to make sure my daughter's dentist visit in Oct is covered, and 2 weeks notice would put me into October but I wonder if I should wait until after her appt for my last day. Does anyone know?
Oh yeah.... I got a new job!!! I got a new job!!!
