No the driving force if the MT in transcription. Without the MT the technology couldnt survive.

I have done enough ASR, etc. to tell you that there is no way that technology could survive on its own or any other technology that we have today as well.  The way these people dictate I guarantee you there will always be a need for MTs.  There arent enough doctors now to go around.  Do you really think they are going to sit there and type the reports or care how they look.  They are working twice as hard now for less money.

Hey everyone, check out this link. This is what we are up against. Be sure and note how 3M or whoever is the sponsor of this webinar throws in that dictation and transcription is time-consuming.  Nevermind that EMR and VR take more time and money to be successful and it only takes 38 seconds to dictate a returning patient and 2 minutes to dictate a new patient versus 500 clicks on a point and click EMR or the mess VR makes and having to have an Editor come in and clean up the mess. Propaganda that we should know about.

Does anyone have any information/experience with this company? 

Does anyone know about this company?  They claim to be flexible and pay for spaces on 65-character line.  Sounds pretty good so far.  Any employees of TTS out there.  Thanks for any information.

x you are obviously angry about something else. Not my fault your bf is a school bus driver. Known to be very bad drivers, unfortunately.

if you can do that and survive then sm
great for you. Some of us have to work and work these shifts to survive so don't knock those of us that do. also don't gripe when you aren't working at all.

I am getting a job driving a school bus.
That cannot be taken out of the country. They start at $13 an hour. Give my brains a brake, I mean break.

truck driving for me...sm
I still may be sitting on my butt all day, but at least I'd be enjoying the scenery!!!

Driving me nuts!
OK, what WAS that from? I remember it, but can't put a face or name with it. Why do I want to think it's Opie from the Andy Griffith show (ok, I'm telling my age, but so are you) :)

I'd never survive on BIMONTHLY pay....
It's sometimes a struggle with biweekly pay when something unexpected comes up, but I'd never survive on bimonthly. Ouch.

No, actually I don't - I'm too busy trying to survive to worry about
You need a reality check, girl and you still haven't said what YOUR name is. Credibility, you know!

Trying so hard to survive here and need VR advice

I have recently started with a company and they do VR.  It's requiring a lot of retyping.  I think someone who is not conscientious might make a little money because they can rip through it and not fix things..................but I am fixing everything and being very careful.  I am about to quit...........but before I do.........I am wondering if I could just ask for more pay.  I do not hate the work.  I hate the money that I'm not making. 

What is the rate for VR that a company should be willing to pay to someone with excellent skills?

Ability to survive - the BIG issue too is sm
the line rate, the line production requirement not JUST whether there is work at night, which shift etc. It is the LINE RATE OFFERED. Does not matter if you even have plenty of work on whatever shift if it pays pennies a line.

1000 lines a day, 125 lines an hour, say 4 cents that is $40 bucks a day,
5 cents a line $50 bucks a day ($6.25 an hour)
They are going to require much more, if not, get a letter, plus lose insurance.

They will want more like 2250 lines a day at 4 cents a line, at $90 a day x 5 days equal $450 a week ($900 per pay period)
THAT IS 281.25 LINES AN HOUR PEOPLE

I cannot image that on Beyond TXT platform (or any other). I'm WORTH much more.

100% correct. Ruined me too. I just couldnt work

It is in Indiana, and you had to live within driving distance. n/m

Corporate greed is driving it right out of existence
can afford to live in the United States and stay in MT. More & more of us are getting out. Some, like me, are trapped... been at it for too long (30+ years), and most of us are now what you would call the Working Poor. Back in my 20's when I came to that 'crossroads', I should've gone with my friend and learned court-reporting. So far their jobs haven't been teetering on the brink of extinction (yet), like ours are in MT.
