dollars to donuts...

that Nuance is also Indian owned. Just a feeling I get. They just have a better U.S. store front.

I just hate to see other MT/QA people get snookered by them. Time will tell, though. Time will tell.

OMG YES! I don't care that you worked for Dunkin Donuts!
I don't care if you are a Girl Scouts leader, either.

My goodness.

Those Dunkin Donuts type of resumes
get ditched. I usually will write the MT and ask them if they forgot the part about the MT work they did. Then I tell them that I do not need to know about any other work experience other than MT. Most of the time, you do not get a response back because they have never done MT!
*just two thousand dollars*...
... minus attorney's fees, right?
Okay, 400 LPH is 16 dollars and hour,
Not for me.
uh - that's 200 dollars the first day, not lines. nm
.
it says 64 dollars a pay period, below

I just won a million dollars!
I found one on her computer! Now I can buy out Medquist and return it to pre-2006! No more ASR, no cesspool and each of you only will have one primary and a secondary and generous quarterly bonuses which you can actually GET!
Wow, buy hundreds of dollars
worth of equipment for 6 cpl for them to decide during the probationary period that you weren't going to work out for them?  No thanks.
Equals $21.44 US dollars nm

Cymed Dictation Dollars
Does anybody know what these are?  Is this something new that we haven't been told about yet?  It seems that since they are posting this as a benefit for new-hires that they should inform their current employees about it, or am I dreaming?
"Just two thousand dollars"
I hope you are joking right. That is a lot of money. As a single mom that would probably get me kicked out of my house for not paying rent and get me in trouble for my car payment, cause my utilities to be off, etc. To most of us that is a lot of money. Simple two grand does not describe it for me if that happened to me.
Yes, is that 4000 dollars a month? If so,
At 6 cpl, you must've transcribed around 67,000 lines in that month. Now, do you have any idea what you could've made somewhere else? Well, at 8 cpl, you would've made around $5,360 and at 9 cpl, you would've made $6,030. You are soooo undercutting yourself by staying at a job that only pays 6 cpl.

Oh, and by the way, assuming you work approx. 40 hours a week, you must transcribe upwards of 400 lph. Most companies would LOVE to have someone that fast on board and would pay a whole lot more than 6 cpl for such a high producer!!! You should really check your options.
Anywhere from 13-15 dollars per hour to start

depending upon whether you are working in a hospital or a private practice.  Private practices are going to pay more, but will probably use Word as opposed to Meditech.  I'm on the East Coast.  


Okie. Just trying to save someone a few dollars. nm

Wouldn't do QA again for a million dollars. (sm)
Biggest challenge - keeping your sanity while having to fix crappy work over and over and over again while meeting impossible deadlines for really low pay. Believe me, if you can be an MT, you'd be better off financially and mentally. Oh, and no one is going to pay me a million dollars, so I feel confident in saying that. :) Why on earth would you want to transition to QA? Did someone tell you it's a step up??? Reevaluate that statement by searching the archives for commentary on QA problems. There was a long discussion on here a few weeks ago about it. Good luck to you. Choose wisely!
Ok it is about 64 dollars a pay period for a single person. This is from sm
someone who works here. That also is for the gold plan like I have. That's pretty good.
that must be a typo. 3 dollars and 50 cents a line???

what company pays 17 dollars an hour?
JLG pays 21 dollars an hour, that is a fact.
Old posts say they pay late and only in Canadian dollars, not US money. nm
s
8.5-9 means cents per line, not dollars per hour. nm
x
That would be an extra 50 to 100 dollars in addition to lines and a half. nm

How hard is it to get to the 900 dollars a pay period on Beyondtxt VR to keep the benefits?
Thank You!
4000 lines a month of dollars? Either of which is not that great! So, what are you bragging about?
x
As below, they do to full time people making 900 dollars per pay period. nm

I would be afraid to lose my safety net if I needed X amount of dollars to live. I am sitting here
now out of work with 3 major hospitals in my pool and I think if a lot of people all want to work the same hours this may be a big problem because they cant keep it straight now so I would be very leery of this until you see how it is going to go. I work for Amherst and this is a chronic problem with no work.
