The highest ever on VR I got was
probably around 3700+ for the day. I also have straight to go along with that. Usually on straight only I would do 2000+ a day. I had great dictators the day I got that almost 4000 lines. I have been told (?) by the higher ups we have people who can double. As far as the quality, we are not allowed to let quality slip as we have to keep 97-98% accuracy and we are checked every 3 months. The only problem I have with editing is now I edit the world and scan and immediately see any misspelled words.
I don't think there is a highest paying sm
speciality any more.  Radiology used to be pretty decent.  Wages have gone down across the board.
MQ pays the highest, but that's because

they give you so many different accounts to learn all the instructions for.  Some have as many as 20 to 30 new accounts per day.  It's not worth it.  Are you sure you really need to learn VR?  I'd stick to straight transcription.  It pays way better.


Which companies pay the highest for VR work? nm

Highest I've hear was MQ but I
VR doesn't pay anywhere near what it should for the work that needs to be done with it.
Considering I am one of the highest line producers in the company sm

I doubt I will change jobs.  There are no other offices, just different account managers, and mine is the best one, and the one with the most experiences.  My accounts are extremely heavy ESL and I do really well with them, over 300 lph. 


However, she asked about the platform and, unfortunately, it is awful.  It is clunky, slow, and screws up constantly.  That is what I was answering, the question regarding the platform.  My opinion is hardly an isolated one among the company MTs.  The ones who find it as workable as you say are very rare. 


Why not email ask lowest to highest rate sm
say prior to testing and interview as it will save both sides time. Also, ask, if there is a deposit on their supplied computer. Spheres was $500 returned in SIX MONTHS another was $300. I will not even consider this crap of 7,8,9 etc even down to 4 and 5. Don't waste my time, I worked hard to learn and stay current. When these rates are turned down, they will come up 10/line minimum.

Transolutions do not pay for spaces.
I used to sing the highest praises of this company, but they are s/m
sadly becoming one of many in the business who, in the end, caree nothing about the MT. I have been out of work for days! (I have 4 accounts of 90% ESL and do all work types). I am interviewing for other jobs outside of the MT world as we speak. Can't afford to sit here without work for more than a day. It has been more like a week with no work that amounts to anything.

I was told the other day that they had to hold work for one of our hospitals because that hospital has in-house union workers who needed the work!!!
Webmedx pays very well for VR - probably the highest or close to it. nm

Always email first, ask lowest to highest rate offered.
I bet they offer prob. 7 cents if that.
I recently emailed asking for lowest to highest line rate sm
it was toooo low 7.5
I routinely email lowest-to-highest rate offered sm
and did in April. Rate only 8 cents, to low for me.
I'm high level 4, all acute care, high ESL, many years exp. and highest QA grades...
In case you are wondering...All acute care, all specialties. I request new accounts, and yet they all run out of work...not just during usual slow periods...
Tier 4 is the highest tier at MQ, operative reports only. nm
.
High tier 4 now (out of 5--whatever) was highest MQ tier.
Can pretty much do it all. I detest pathology, too, and thick Russian accents. :)
