Medquist no longer pays hourly rate for QA - that

It is MME. You do QA for 3 cents a line. Then when that runs out, which it does, you do Editing at 5 cents a line. And you also get straight transcription which is 8 cents a line.
Was in the pilot program and got more Editing and straight Transcription than QA.
No more QA department for MQ.

MQ pays hourly. Their starting rate
was the highest of all the top nationals who are still paying hourly, plus they provide all your equipment, pay for your internet and the benefits are great.
When MDI-FL pays vacation time, is it hourly rate or an average
A combo hourly/incentive or straight hourly rate based on
A platform where MTs have had major input in developing it.
10 annual days of PTO, at average hourly rate.
Affordable, decent health insurance.
QA done by very experienced high-level MTs, with open and respectful communication between QA and the MTs.
I was just told on yesterday that they no longer do hourly for QA.
This was from a male (M.L.) who responded to my email. Did you get this information from a male? I wonder why they are telling some people that they pay hourly and telling others that it is by the line only?
MW no longer pays for training.
Per leads.
So DH pays the BIG bills. What if he were no longer
ALL the bills, on your own, with your salary or any typical MT's salary?
Does anyone know who pays QA hourly? sm
I need a QA job that will pay me hourly, so if you have any leads, send them my way. :)

I think Transcend pays hourly for training for
But, I think the training is Monday through Thursday and I think you do 10 reports a day. This is how it was last year, but I'm not sure about now.

Hourly pay rate
I have been working for Transolutions since March, and so far I'm very happy with them. They pay $10 for training (7 hours a day for 4 days the first week, if I remember correctly) and your first month you make $10/hour while you get used to your account. You can also get extensions to that time period, as long as you continue making progress. Once your evaluation period is over, your pay is based on production levels - from 150 up to 225 per hour, with the pay per line increasing as you go up - I think it work out to around $19/hour at the top level. They also have bonuses, weekend differentials, and paid time off even for part-timers like me.
Hope that helps!
hourly rate
You don't say what your experience is or rate of pay or how long you have been at this job and if IC or employee. If you want to make $25 an hour you have to hit for 250 to 300 lines per hour if making 0.08 to 0.10 cpl. If you are new, it will take a while. But it is possible after years of experience and knowing how to do shortcuts, etc. Just gotta hang in there. You could not walk into an office and expect to make $25 and hour - gotta be patient and work up to it. But it can be done but it has taken me many years to get there. Patti
I have only done QA for an hourly rate. (sm)
QA is more than just filling in the blanks. You have to give feedback and there is also mentoring. New MTs to the company and accounts have to be on 100% QA, so those reports have to be listened to. Doing QA on production is not a good thing. If a company really cares about quality they would not pay QA Specialists by the line.
Does MQ pay QA as hourly rate? Just

Hourly rate
Can anyone give suggestions of a MT company that pays hourly for IC work instead of line rate? Can be FT or PT.
Hourly rate
Does anyone know of companies paying hourly rates? Please email me if so, especially if using Escription platform. Thanks
hourly rate
Yeah. Guess it must be a tall order these days.
hourly rate
I think the only place you're going to get an hourly rate for transcription is working in-house. None of the work-from-home places pay hourly. There's no way to control if someone is actually working or not.
Transolutions, hourly rate?
Does anyone have info on Transolutions' new hourly rate?
Line rate and hourly
Okay, if you get paid 2 cents a line and there are no errors and you don't have to do a QA feedback, that is different. I used to get 3 cents a line and not have to give feedback and then they switched. I think we should have to give feedback, but it takes time and no raise was given. I also have a $14 an hour job. They are both part time. I can make more on the 3 cents a line.
Spheris hourly rate
Just remember that pay rate may be only for a specific platform and not universal. :)
MT hourly rate jobs...sm
Are there any companies that pay hourly for straight transcription?
Our company has a set hourly rate that
you are paid and your time accumulates just like any other job. 1-5 years we get 2 weeks plus holidays, 5-10 3 weeks, over 10 years 4 weeks.
MQ pays 70% of your MT rate. More than anyone else.
Does anybody know what Transolutions hourly pay rate is and any info.. sm
I see that Transolutions is hiring and they are paying an hourly rate. Am currently looking for a new job and was curious as to the rate, also any info. on the company. I did an archives search but all posts are a year or so old. Thanks you.
Does Transcend pay a flat hourly rate
If so, how much?
I might add that I make a decent hourly rate doing
QA, but I really earned excellent money doing MT. I cannot complain about my hourly QA rate at all. I earn more than many I know working hourly.
I have heard hourly rate is now lower in $12 to $15
per hour range. Lots of companies pay by line. Forget it with handling MTs - no win situation now matter how you deliver it. Truly the downside of the job.... a real bummer.
eTransPlus hourly rate 3rd shift M-F
Anyone with a clue about this, how much is the hourly rate, how they are to work for, their platform. TIA
How much PTO does TT offer? Is it at your calculated hourly rate? What's the pay cut for VR? Ty.
Thinking of leaving the Web. TT sounds like a better place to be. Thanks.
MQ pays 60% of transcription rate for VR.
Hourly rate? That's a laugh. Try 6 cents a line nm

TransTech does - Hourly in addition to line rate

I used to make an hourly rate at a local hospital but s/m
The home-based MTs were on a tiered hourly scale depending on how many minutes we typed daily. The in-house MTs were not on this scale and I believe they are the reason we lost our jobs to outsourcing. They made the big bucks and could not even produce 80 minutes of dictation a day. The home MTs had to produce 100 minutes a day to reach the maximum hourly pay.
I feel that being paid by production is not such a bad thing because at least the ones who produce get paid for it.
No line rate change, we are being converted to hourly
n/m
Webmedx also pays 70% of your current rate. nm

Worked out to a pretty good hourly rate, just not the right company for me. nm
,,
If your hired at an hourly rate and you run out of work, then you dont get paid anything??
Just saying, you worked a total of 3 hours one day, ran out of work for two hours, then for that day you only get paid 3 hours? That would suck and it wont pay my bills.
oh and they have incentive if you type over where they add $$ to your hourly rate for all hours work

Hourly rate PT hours & fewer line requirement
Title means nothing at my company. All I do is assign work.
About money, line rate is one thing, but hourly figures are another sm
Traditional: 8.5 cents per line. Top out at 225. $19.25 an hour.
Speech: 4.5 cents per line. Top out at 500. $22.50 an hour.
I split between the two and right now, that is running $700 a week or $36K a year. Not a huge salary, I know, but more than I made 10 years ago.
Could I push harder? Sure, but I don't need the money because I have structured my life so that I only need 1/2 my income to live on and I live alone. I like the part about not being exhausted on my days off, about being able to give up a terrible PT job, and having time to paint AND be able to have expensive, high-quality art supplies.
I am happy as a clam and I do not think that VR will take my job!!!! My only worry right now is that my painting is taking off with art shows, commissions and internet sales. I won't be able to work full time as an MT if this keeps up, and I know it will. I love being an MT and when it ends in favor of my artwork, I will be joyous over one and very much saddened over the other. It is and has been a wonderful career for me.

Transcend only pays 55% of line rate for editing...
I could have dealt with an 80% cut. I think that is a very fair rate. That is my whole point. I do not have a problem with the fact that they are moving to ALL editing. I have a problem with the cut being too large. I think 6 cpl would have been fair. That allows you to make a decent wage, but 4 cents is absolutely ridiculous. If voice recognition is the way of the future, at least MQ is doing something right, at least trying to be fair. Transcend is just greedy!!
Webmedx pays 70% of your line rate. I make more on VR s/m
with them them straight typing, a lot more.
