I live on the East Coast and have been getting paid anywhere from $1.50 to $2.00 per report and $2.00-2.50 per page all depending on what type of reports I am transcribing.

Radiology reports??  $1.20??  Am considering job offer.

I worked for them for a little over a week and we were being paid per report.  Must be a different account they were recenting hiring for or either they changed the pay structure.

At any rate, my experience was less than grand as well.

of months now.  They hire, lose account, hire again before new accounts comes onboard, then have overhired, having to put new MT's on the current low workload. 

With all the times I've had residents, PAs, or NPs dictate sentences, erase them, start again, erase them, and then end up saying go back to where I said [fill in the blank] and put [such and such] instead, I can't see a machine being able to correctly interpret all that.  If they work with the document being created in front of them, they can fix all this stuff as they go along. Just highlight the old stuff they want out and replace it with the new stuff they really wanted.

I can't see the computers picking up medication errors, dosage errors, incorrect dates, new operative equipment, being able to correctly flag right/left, or correct spelling of cc'd physicians' names. Most likely there is another program running with it that would do a pop screen for amoxicillin 5000 mg tid to question it. Physician names are probably in a pop up screen too. Of course, it's not going to correct everything but when the COX-2 inhibitors were taken off the market do you think a human could go through all 5,785 charts to find the people who had been prescribed Celebrex to call them to tell them to stop taking it? Of course not.  It's not a matter of IF MT's will be replaced, it's already happening.

I know one of the MTs that had their job eliminated at Medware last week.  The problem is this person's job was not eliminated, they gave it to someone else, but in the generic email it stated that there was no more job.  Seems like this should go against some labor law, but since we work over the internet who would you ask or report this to?  The job that was eliminated was the day person's job and the day person was given the evening person's job - the job that was supposedly eliminated.  We are trying to figure out if there is something that can be done about this or if this person should just say the heck with it and move on.  Thanks for any advice. 

Looking for part-time radiology QA work.  Anybody know of any companies looking?  Thanks.

TIA....

I agree with the person who said if its plain films that are typed then go with per report price. 

I want to work where YOU work!  That's the most I've heard.
