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!!
Looking for a co. that does not use VR/editing, rather straight transcription
Is there is such a company? Must pay on time. Don't need insurance.
Would consider clinic work after 15 years of acute care experience.
Don't like my pay cut in half -- cannot make up for $$$$. DQS was the only VR platform that was good to me $$$ wise.
I should also mention that I do straight transcription, not editing.
I have never run out of work.
It sure is! Isn't it about what straight editing gets?
editors do the same thing as ASR, it's all editing in my book, and it's all a rip, except don't editors get only all the worst stuff? About the only thing good I can say about it is it does seem to help on some of the ESLs who qualify for it.
4 cpl editing/8.4-10 straight typing.
I work for DeVenture and Lee Perfect.
It's editing AND straight typing. nm
c
believe it is 8 cpl for straight typing and 4 cpl for editing, at least that is what their ad says.
Rad pay by report - Editing vs straight pay - sm
Radiology MTs, what is a decent rate for pay by report? I'm thinking of going with a service that uses Powerscribe and has editing of VR as well as straight transcription. Someone else mentioned 75 cents for a transcribed report and 55 cents for edited report, but I'd like some perspective from other rad MTs as to whether this is a fair wage. I come from a background of paid by the line only previously so I'm not sure how to compare. Thanks in Advance!
Is this for editing VR or straight typing? Thanks again. nm
.
Not true, MQ pays 8 cpl for editing.
Supposedly, editing would be faster than straight typing
and the VR would be ONLY for those doing editing. Not everyone will be doing editing (at Transcend).
11,000 per week editing lines, 5,500 straight typed.
Don't know how much it is for husband and kids. $70 a week for me and two kids.
What's more productive for you, ExText editing or straight typing?
Not sure I'm gonna like this editing job 
Does anyone know how Transcend pays out
Their $1000 sign-on bonus? Thanks so much!
Transcend pays still
one day, 4 hours with trainer = $60.00
transcend and editing
Is anyone here editing on Transcends beyondtxt and if so please let me know how your pay compares to the transcription side. Are you making more, less, the same?
Thanks
Transtech pays as much as Transcend
.
Question about editing for Transcend?
How easy is the editing for transcend? Have you edited for other companies? How does it compare. Thanks!
TransTech Pays for Internet does Transcend?
I just read that they reimburse for internet, does Transcend do this too?
So, Transcend pays half of MT rates for ME?
@@
Transcend pays hourly or at least they did a year
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.
Transcend pays for experience and I thought the
They have quite a few accounts. They are a large company.
I make 11 cpl with straight typing with MDI, and I doubt Transcend will keep our pay as it is. I am
nm
the pay for voice recognition/editing is better at MQ than Transcend
Transcend only pays 60% of line rate, at least MQ is 80%.
Is that true?
Stay with Transcend. I make more money edit than I ever could straight typing
Plus, the benefits are pretty good. Insurance is a little high but it is everywhere.
Straight Transcription vs VR
If anyone has gone from straight transcription to voice recognition, what was the expected increase in LPH, 50%, 75%, 100%? And how realistic was expectation?
Straight Transcription/VR
EditScript
Does KS do ASR or is everything straight transcription?
I absolutely hate ASR, just can't seem to make as much editing as transcribing.
As far as I know they do straight transcription. I don't know
what shifts are available, you'll have to ask them about that.
When you have to go from straight transcription...sm
to a VR account it is a big deal. I have worked on my second choice and I really am not thrilled with it. The only reason I have stayed with TT was because of TO, as I really, really liked that account and now they are gone. I am glad you are happy with your alternatives, but some of us are not.
STRAIGHT TRANSCRIPTION
Looking for a company with straight transcription. Cannot make money with ASR. Any suggestions?
MDI-MD is straight transcription....n/m
x
straight transcription
JLG. The only problem is that they do not have direct deposit right now. Other than that, great company to work for.
OSI - do they have just straight transcription? see msg
How are the accounts/dictators? I'm thinking of testing but will not do SR/VR - just looking for part time multispecialty clinic work to fill some gaps. Any info is appreciated. Thanks!
Straight transcription here...
... and I much prefer it that way. I have never even been asked if I want to learn speech-wreck. I've been at this 37 years, I'm very good at it (if I do say so myself) and I'm fast. It ain't broke so nobody better try to fix it.... :)
Transcend pays 3 cents per line on holidays, plus sends a handwritten card to all
employees. I have worked for many companies and I have never seen a company that cares as much as Transcend.
E-mail me if you'd like more information.
What companies have straight transcription
What companies are offering only straight transcription jobs? A list of these would truly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
ASP is their own platform they use for straight transcription.
nm
MQ pays 60% of transcription rate for VR.
I prefer Dictaphone doing straight transcription. sm
When I worked on eScription I liked the platform but doing VR made me insane correcting so many little things like he to she, not to mention I made about $200 less a month. But, that's just me.
I am very happy at Axolotl doing straight transcription. SM
I have found them to be an excellent company. Yes, QA is tough - and some people have said that the supervisor is rude. However, I have had no problems with QA (they do stick right the account specs, though), and no problems with the supervisor or manager. In fact, they have been more than gracious to me. Now, I don't really know if they are hiring but maybe as there has been a TON of work lately. Please email me if you want to ask more questions about them.
Do you mean only SR people terminated, straight transcription ok? (Sm)
Surely they would give editors a chance to change to straight typing. Maybe I am misunderstanding this.
Rates for transcription and editing.
Speech recognition. Here are some rates. This is not a guarantee, just what I know first-hand, and what I've been told from others as well. It's just an average.
Cents per Line.
Sten-Tel - transcribe - 7.5, edit - 3
MDI - transcribe 8-8.5, edit 4-4.5
QT Medical - transcribe 8, edit 4
Focus - transcribe 7.5, edit 3
Editing versus transcription
I do VRE and I love it. I have done it for a couple of different companies, and how much you make will all depend on the work and how much patient info you have to enter. I think 3.75cpl is pretty low though.
The statistics are that only 7% of transcription is SR editing. Think about all the sm
individual doctor offices, small hospitals and clinics. I even was told that it is too expensive for large hospitals because they need a license for each doctor and they have to train it. When you have a teaching hospital, it can mean 4000 licenses. Not worth the cost.
It's not as prevalant as it seems to be. It is just talked about often now.
Hated VR. Made less money that straight transcription..sm
I was extremely boring and mindless work. People say they doubled their production/lines with VR. That is true but remember if you make 0.08 straight typing and 0.04 doing VR, you are making the same amount of money. I made about 150 bucks less a month because the dictators were horrible and I had to end up typing almost all the reports over. I will never do it again.
I despise it. You will never ever make as much money as on straight transcription.

Is that 1600 lines a day in editing or transcription?
nm
New England Medical Transcription pays weekly. nm

Voice will reduce transcription and increase editing
along with lowering pay across the board. There is a company I left after a short period of time who bought into Dragon's sales pitch. It was a medical management company who thought they could make a quick buck moving into MT. They bought the sales pitch without understanding the whole picture.
They hire at $8 an hour, have great benefits and expect you to kill yourself for that $8 an hour. IF you edit more than 16,000 lines a day for each pay period (2 weeks), then you pay bumps up to $10/hr. But if the average for any pay period is less than 16,000 lines per day, you get stuck with your $8 and are told if you don't like it leave. Well, I did. The day after I left they announced they were sending the editing to India. Ain't that a kicker? Their reason? To get the MTs in India to train Dragon so the American MTs can make their 16,000 lpd goals and have happier employees
Things that make you go hummm.
