monthly pay
Is the average pay around $1000.00 month and is this good pay for a MT.
2 cpl - don't know about monthly yet.
nm
Meant to say Sph and MQ for about $350 monthly
sorry about that
Yup, twice monthly on the 1st and 15th.

You should be able to see weekly and monthly
below the counts for the day. My understanding is that each day is reset at midnight (facility server's local time), each week on Saturday at midnight, and each month on the last day of the month at midnight (again, facility's local time zone).
So you can see the current day, but only summaries for the previous week and month, not individual previous days.
you are so right about the monthly cycles here...
it goes around and around. I personally experienced exactly what you said with both TT and Keystrokes. Yet when the dust settles...
I also agree with your thanks but no thanks. I work for the money, or I wouldn't. Just pay me and respect me...but don't schmooze me.
Really? Your STM should be holding these at least monthly
I would check with your STM to find out when he/she holds her team conference calls.
Job offer that pays bi-monthly..sm
I am looking into a position that pays on the 15th & last day of the month. Has anyone had experience with this? I'm used to being paid every other week currently so I'm just wondering how this works out. Thanks!
What do you mean? Don't you have to submit a monthly schedule? sm
I have always had to submit a schedule and they expect you to adhere to it so I am not understanding what you are talking about. Please post reply. TIA
Anyone care to share how much their pay is monthly??
I forgot to mention, MDI will reimburse you a little bit monthly for LD.
I forget the amount, but ask about reimbursement for long distance charges. They also have accounts that are on waveplayer, so no long distance needed. Check on things.
No, she said 1000 monthly - not weekly. Less than minimum wage! nm

Monthly, I bring in $3500-4000, about $1800 every 2 weeks.
I work about 5-6 hours a day, Monday through Friday. Sometimes I work a little extra if I didn't get the line count I wanted that day due to dictators, etc. Consistently, I bring in this much as an IC. It hasn't always been this way, you need to get to know your accounts and then it will come. I have the same accounts and dictators every day working for a national.
Puleeze! I heard that monthly for 2 years. I will believe it when I can count lines on it. nm

Salary
When I went to school 13 years ago for MT (I know, back in the day) they always emphasized that the best situation was to work in-house for a few years before attempting to work at home. That option is pretty scarce now, and I keep wondering what the longterm effect will be as far as potential excellent MTs giving up without reaching their goal.
Salary
I average between $18-20/hour for acute care and have been doing this for 12+ years. What I don't get is when are these services going to wake up and pay for experience. I would think that it would be more cost effective to pay a higher rate for an MT who does not need a ton of QA than to pay a lower rate for less experience and then pay QA on top of that to correct the report.
QA salary
Yes QASs are paid hourly.
Salary
Thanks to those who have answered so far. I am hoping that the responses point a realistic picture of this career good/bad and also by identifying the companies that fairly compensate their MTs, giving credit where credit is due. I should I averaging around $17 an hour working for a private larger practice, with benefits, at home, and this includes insurance. I am not all that happy with the hourly rate, but in my case the benefits are a major factor. There is a chance for incentive which I am struggling with.
Salary
We have a production minimum we have to meet and then anything over is paid on incentive. It is basically a fair system for both the company and the MT. I like that I have the opportunity to push it and make a little extra - put I really do have to push it!
Salary
Our minimum is actually based on minutes. I want to say around 20 minutes an hour, which sounds like it should not be much but we do a lot of retrieving info from the EMR and putting reports into different files, etc. If this was straight transcribing I would be making a great salary - but way more involved on the clerical end of things, plus tons of little 30 second reports which really kill you on minutes. Nothing loads at all so pulling info from the EMR for each individual patient. It can become very frustrating.
How is salary?,...nm
..
salary
In some parts of the country 15K would be an acceptable income, not good but the best available.
According to Salary.com
mean expected salary for a US medical Transcriptionist is $36,956. I am curious if anyone is actually coming close to that. I know I sure the !#1& dont't.
Average salary for MT
Hello,
not sure if it matters from state to state but i live in NY and would like to know what the average income might be for a MT thinking of going to school for this so I'm not sure what the variables would be as far as income. I know that some work for hospitals or private practice would like to get a round about figure for the average.
TIA.

The Salary Is Correct
The typo was not the salary. That is really what I am earning.
Withhold 10% of salary for 401(k).... sm
and never deposit those funds in employee's retirement account. Repeatedly hang up on employee who is demanding Show me the money! Wait for Labor Dept. to hold feet to fire, dragging resolution out as long as possible.
Salary Survey
Looking at the post below about who loves their company, I am hoping to take this information a step further with what I hope is a fair survey. Working 40 hours a week, what is your salary, acute care versus clinic, benefits versus no benefits, and what company do you work for? I think it is very hard to judge what the individual companies are offering, and a lot of the opinions are based on what works for one does not work for another. Thanks to all who are willing to share this info.
Also, has your salary gone up (ha, ha), stayed the same, or gone down over the last 5 years? Thanks again.
Salary is fine
Salary is fine ... how are you?
What do you consider an excellent salary?
If you don't mind me asking. I've never made less than $22/hr average on production and would like to keep it that way.
now it's being paid salary?? oh, my, please
$800 for 2 weeks at salary equals an average of $400/week equals $10 an hour - oh, this bizzaro drama just gets sadder and sadder and the ridiculous bar keeps getting pushed higher and higher... or is it lower and lower...
if my salary is $ 100,000.--, I would all forget about
ham sandwich and alcohol, etc....
BTW, with the right 'connection' foreigners can get everything, over there, so I have heard.
We work well with our recruiter who also is on salary. We have
open communication and we allow her to do what is necessary to get us the best MTs possible and she has. We do not have a revolving door and never have. We personally have received compliments on the way she has handled our potential MTs and the ones we have hired. One part of her job though is to be liason between those MTs that are hired and the mgmt staff and in doing so, whatever that might be wrong (very little has been) can be fixed. So far all are happy and we are happy. Even though she does not work in the office, we have open communication daily and any questions that need answering are fully answered. All paperwork is shared through our server so it is not necessary to have the paperwork in office for one thing because we trust her.
MT supervisor salary, how much do you make? nm

Anyone have a ballpark salary for managers?
Two years ago I made $51K as an MT, and it is gradually going down because of line scalping. Thanks for your input.
As I recall, anything over 1x year salary SM
required proof of insurability.
Hardly any jobs out there post the salary.
I don't think it matters if it's transcription or what. I can't imagine testing for a company before calling them and flat out asking what the pay rate is for the position being offered. What a total waste of time for both the company and the applicant.
...and I personally do not think it is inappropriate to laugh at a ridiculous rate and slam down the phone either. I think the asshats out there who are offering a nickel a line need to get laughed at and rudely hung up on to boot. None of this PC politeness garbage of thanking them for their time either if they pull a number like that out of their hineys. A man sure as heck wouldn't stand for that kind of pud pullin'...why should we?!
Hourly and salary are not the same thing. lol

more than double my yearly salary
Always knew I worked harder than most - now I get paid like it.
I also have doubled my salary with production.
what MT is making a "huge' salary sm
so much that they need to get into their medical records? That is just one more invasion of privacy. Besides who intereprets what they read. Someone may have a chronic illness that has no effect whatsoever on their job. These people are not God and cannot predict how long a person is going to be around.
More and more invasion of privacy!
Wonder what the *average* MTSO VP's salary is...
And if PB is paid more or less than *average*... javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');
Too bad the MTs don't get to vote on THAT decision. Instead, if this is all true about a pay cut, the MTs are going to give up what once was a better than average cpl rate so PB (and JH) can keep on making the big bucks and keep on doing whatever it is they do.

Good luck with that, ladies.
You can make a decent salary but
you have to have good platform and not a lot of people training. I did 750 the first hour today, times that by 4 and see what it came up to.
Well I do earn a pretty decent salary
and I am not talking anything under $50,000. I have heard of some of you recruiters who earn $30,000. I would not do it at all for that. I know one woman who earns $58,000 as a recruiter. I know another who earns $42,000. I know another who is paid per head and I won't do it because that forces you to hire anyone.
For what I earn, yesI will keep an open phone line to an excellent potential employee.
Yeah I did look it up and that is the way I took it.. 1x your annual salary..They do also have long
and short-term disability which may be of help if you are out of work for any length of time.
The ones who don't NEED the real salary are killing it for the rest of us.
The ones who have the husband with the fat salary who pays the bills are the ones taking whatever pay they're offered instead of standing up for the salary we deserve. THOSE are holding us down!
It's NOT the olden days, as you put it. It hasn't been that way for a few decades.
I just looked at the salary for ultrasound tech and
it is awesome! I went on line and we can study part time on line and then travel for the lab part. The bad thing is getting the 100.00 application fee, and then getting financial aide. So I am still working really hard at MT and saving the money... I think it would be a great way to work at home and get out of the house too, doing both things... but first things first... if it is meant to be, it will happen. At least there may be light at the end of the tunnel and not just a tunnel leading no where or to the grave. I know that stress can lead to the grave and no way is any career worth it... nor is any bill collector worth it... Thanks for giving hope to my day to all of the posters here... at least I have hope, even if I never make it to ultrasound school... one day at a time...
I'm on salary and looking to leave for ages, guess there is no perfect job.

No MT's salary alone provides 'the finer things in life'. You
are delusional if you think being a TT MT makes you rich. Why are all the loonies/TT cheerleaders/TT management on the board tonight? Or is it just one person who severely needs some ADD medicine?
