Patti, I'm a big fan of yours
I always make a point of reading your posts. You should do some sort of column. The networks do pay well for transcription. They can afford to only charge $20 per transcript because they sell hundreds of them. Keep in mind that the Transcriptionist is producing a product that they mass produce and make a huge profit on.
hi patti ...
I'm in lower Westchester County, NY, about 1/2 hour north of NYC. Do you know of a good, reputable MT company that I can contact?
Thanks ...
Joanne
Thanks Patti
I'll ask about it again this evening if there is still no check in my mail box when I get home. At least I am not doing this full-time. I have an outside FT job and I do this in the evenings for supplemental income, but I still need it as I am on my own. I have learned my lesson about not signing a contract again that states I get paid when the client pays them, never again. I've started sending out resumes, might as well get ready to move on.
thanks again Patti...
I was just doing the math for the 3$ per page with sample copies in Word, and it wasn't adding up (many more lines on a page than I had anticipated. I thought a page would only have 30 lines or so...not!) You all are GREAT. All this advice is helping tremendously.
Patti, you are right...
I used to have my own accounts and at my highest, I made $60,000. I have gone to remote only and my income has dropped significantly. I just wanted to give my input and back you up, you are absolutely right!
To Patti
Hello Patti
I definitely agree that this can be done. I believe back 3-4 years ago, you might have been the one who inspired me to get my own accounts and even offered me wonderful technical information. I am not sure though. Anyway, I am offering you my support. I make about $30/hr, but I only work about 7 hours a week as an MT. I have great dictators, use expanders, and charge 0.13 cents per line. The other MTs in the area charge about 0.15 cents per line, and the one that I asked said she made $45,000 last year working part time. It can be done. Good for you. Keep up the good work!
Patti - sm
Their fee is $40 a month, which I didn't think was too bad. The total I will be paying them is almost what I am paying now. The difference will be the interest rates and time it takes to pay them off. My husband is really upset that we are going to do this, but as I said before, I don't see any other way. I am keeping one credit card with a low limit for emergencies, travel, etc. and the rest of them will be history!! When I get out of this mess, it will never happen again. Again, I appreciate your info.
Patti....
you don't need to explain yourself to Tikki (aka Kikki) or anyone else on this board. You took a bashing about the cookies and now about tapes, and money for gas, and on and on and on and on.
You are obviously a very successful and talented MTSO/MT/WOMAN. I admire you. May you continue to have good fortune shine down on you.
Patti, maybe if you... sm
explain to her that not capping a brand name drug would be like you lower casing her name (or the doc's name). Maybe that would help. =)
