Invoicing

I use Quick Books and love it, been using it for 15 to 20 years.  I basically just give them a total line count for each day of the month.  It totals for you.  But my accounts never question my counts so I don't have to provide any back up.  They give me a daily schedule, when done I do my line count and put in on the schdule.  Enter the daily totals onto their invoice weekly and by the end of the month, I am ready to print.   I usually just hand it in when I do a delivery.   They pay within 2-3 days.   I do not breakdown for letters/consults/chart notes -- just a line count per doctor per day.

Hello! When I started as an IC a few months back, the great MTs on this board recommended this free invoicing site.  They have a version you can upgrade to, but the free version works for me! I modify it a tad each week, but its great! Very professional looking! Here's the link:

www.mpword.com free version!    Its MP count version 4.0 or something to that effect!

Good luck!

I have to count my own lines for the first time for an invoice.  Before this I worked with Emdat and that produces a line count for me.  If anyone would be so kind as to help me out I'd greatly appreciate it.  I want to be sure I am paid what I should be without overcharging either.

This is how the it was explained to me by the recruiter "Only space between words is counted, while empty lines, tabs, headers, footers, standard templates and hard enters are not counted." 

So, when using a counting program how do I set that up? (I downloaded the Sylcount software, but could/would download another if it is easier) What is the easiest way to do this?  I'm confused right now, and probably too tired to be trying to do this at the moment anyway...

THANKS!!

I need an easier way to figure time for invoicing.

For example:  An audio is 33 minutes and 31 seconds and the rate of pay is 60.00 per hour. 

It takes me forever to figure the correct amount to invoice.  Any suggestions to make it easier for me?        

I need an invoicing program that will charge by the characters in a page.  I was looking for something that is simple to use and reasonable too, perhaps $100 or less. 

TIA

MPTools, a new release from Emmaus, is a set of six utilities designed to answer real needs by MTs and MTSOs. Among the utilities are these:

1. Create invoices for your clients and pay stubs for your MTs.

• Select client.


• Verify dates.


• Select files.


• Create invoice.

2. E-mail transcribed reports in HIPAA-compliant encrypted zip files with just a few clicks.

• Select client


• Click Suggest filename


• Select files (the actual transcription, not zip files you've made, for the program will zip, encrypt and password protect when it fashions the email)


• Click Send Email. (In the Sent History, each file you've sent is separately listed with abundant information about it: to whom sent, date and time, name of the email, name of the zip file, etc.)

3. Unzip / zip files, even password protected ones, automatically.

4. Print files anywhere on your network.

You'll find MPTools exceptionally easy to use and intuitive. To better explain things we've posted screen captures on the website, and make the program available for download and trial so you can see firsthand how using MPTools will make your workday shorter and easier.
