Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

I know Webmedx pays $11/hour for 1 week.

I have seen in the past week other companies that pay, but I didn't pay attention to who they were.  I found the info browsing the job boards.

Webmedx pays $11/hour for one week and then
pay 25% above line rate for 3 days to give you some time to build-up production. 
$35/hour x five 10-hour days = $1,750 gross/week.

MQ pays QA by the hour.

My company pays $15 to $18 per hour for QA but

I was offered a QA position and even at the highest hourly amount, I make at least $3 more transcribing.


Depending on how much discipline I have on any particular day, I make anywhere from $20 to $35 an hour but never any less than $20 an hour on production.  Other than my hands killing me periodically, I would much rather transcribe!!


what company pays 17 dollars an hour?
JLG pays 21 dollars an hour, that is a fact.
You mean you don't want to try their 12 hour per day-4 day week?

  Anyone apply for the 12-hour day, 4-day week they are offering? 


I had to laugh when I saw their ad for a four-day week, 12-hour day.  In order to get in enough lines to make a 12-hour day, with all the clocking in and clocking out for every little thing like blowing your nose, you will be sitting at that computer 24 hours a day for four-days in a row.  And when are you suppose to eat?  What happens when there is no work during those days -- you end up working on your days off anyway!!! So much for a 4-day week.  Even overtime will have to be on your days off. 


If anyone is working that schedule now, please let us know if it is working out well for you.  GOOD LUCK.  I admire your stamina. 


Happy Holidays


As long as Webmedx pays well for VR
accounts, I won't mind, but if they do like Transcend, I will have a real problem. I can't afford to make half the line rate I make transcribing doing VR. We'll see and hope for the best.
39 hour work week
is what it says. Sorry, 39 not 40 for those counting.
Are we talking a 40-hour week, or an
*
Not thrilled about the new 40-hour week but SM
am still positive. An issue is how much of the current slowdown is actually due to the crash in the economy (on top of the holiday season), a change no company could have planned for.

Also, something I find encouraging is that WedMedx has a vowed goal of developing and providing its clients with very high-quality MTs, excuse me, MCSs (medical content specialists). If that continues, it means doing what it takes to hold onto them since these are people who can always normally find another job.
This week I was told $11.25 an hour

I'd be editing VR all day though as she sends her standard transcription off to some MTSO.  I forgot to ask which.  Those wages are not bad really for this part, but nothing to scream about.  I was making $14 an hour at the in-house hospital job and the peak there was $17.50.   The bens are wonderful, $150 for family and that includes dental, vision.  We also get a 401k. 


But just from the interview, we only get yearly raises.  She doesn't do merit increases.  There are no quarterly QA audits.  Her standards are low, 1100 lines per day for editing.  She told me I was at the top of her list to hire but she is still interviewing.  I took it as she was looking for someone who would work cheaper.


 


Wish WMX would go back to 35 hour week for FT. (sm)

Seemed like we all had enough work to go around.  Perhaps this is more beneficial for the company, but the 35 hours makes it easier to work in a part time job if necessary due to low work. 


Last time my accounts were low for a while I picked up an IC gig, then like a fool when OT was offered on my main job I quit the IC job and went for the bucks.  That lasted about 2 weeks.  Will not be that foolish again.


Webmedx also pays 70% of your current rate. nm
.
Webmedx pays for half of the testing fee...sm

if you pass, which I think is very generous. 


They also raise your line rate a quarter cpl when you become a CMT, which is not fantastic, but we all know any addition to your cpl can add up.


It's more than most companies offer.


Webmedx pays 8 hrs holiday pay (based on your LPH sm
production rate), plus whatever you transcribe for the day. Effectively, this is like double-time.
Webmedx pays very well for VR - probably the highest or close to it. nm
nm
Webmedx pays fairly well, not flexible, though.
They used to hire with a 12-hour window, but I have heard they don't do that anymore, just a straight 8 schedule. Good luck.
Also I was told there is a 20 hour per week requirement (sm)
along with the 4,000 line. I have been an IC with this company since 1998 and just found this out about a week ago. Nothing in anything I actually signed, they were just "letting me know" to maintain my status this was the requirement.

As above, each office is different although I think they are trying to get more uniform across the board.

Does Webmedx radiology still pays everyone at 7.25 per line regardless of experience?

Webmedx pays weekend and shift differential. nm

Webmedx pays 70% of your line rate. I make more on VR s/m
with them them straight typing, a lot more.
Webmedx pays 70% of your regular line rate. nm

She means Webmedx - which pays VR at 70% of your normal line rate. nm

Webmedx pays a flat training rate for 3 days. nm

WebMedx - 12 hour?
Just curious with the 12-hour window for Webmedx, whether they are more interested in actual time (clocking in/out for 8 hours) or just meeting quota within that timeframe.

Any other information about pay, workload, flexibility is greatly appreciated...from what I've read they seem to be a great company.

Thanks!
webmedx gives you a 12 hour window. nm

Webmedx 1 hour telephone interview...sm
Has anyone gone through the 1 hour telephone interview with Webmedx? Just wondering what to expect. Tia!
Anyone gone from MQ to Webmedx? Care to comment? How many lines per hour? Thanks.
I know I can do 300-350 now, but who knows when you change.
Webmedx 12 hour window question.. Do you have to time in and out? (sm)

Do you get to choose the 12 hour window hours?  


Do you really mean they are that flexible.  Say you have to go to school and pick up a sick child, do you have to notify anyone you will be leaving your computer or can you just go and tend to business as long as you work your 8/12? 



Sorry, that does seem to be more than 1 question.


 


Starting with WebMedX in a week or so ...

Have been with MQ for 12 years.  Am really looking forward to WebMedX.  I did a survey like the one you're doing here, and didn't have one bad reply from MTs who work for WebMedX.  So, I'm really hoping it will be a great place to work!  MQ used to be a great place to work....afraid it's no longer true. 


So wish me luck! 


Webmedx offers a production bonus based on your lines per hour sm
over a minimum amount. Amount varies by amount produced. Not split in a pot like mentioned above. I don't understand how that would work?
I start training with Webmedx next week...sm
Like you, I know there is no perfect company, but they do seem pretty darned close.
I start at Webmedx next week and was told...
that my account will be 30% ESL.  When filling out the questionnaire, you are given the opportunity to tell them the amount (percentage wise) of ESL you can handle.  I put down 30-40%. I'm impressed with the way the recruiter handled things and, hopefully, will feel the same way in a month or so.  He seemed to really want to work with me and address any concerns that I had.  Good starting line rate with a good incentive plan. 
Did Webmedx honor your 2-week notice? sm
I'm on good terms with Webmedx and think it's a great company. I have an opportunity that I'm probably going to take, and I would give a 2-week notice to Webmedx, of course.

My concern is that when you give a notice some companies don't honor that themselves and instead tell you to go ahead and leave early. Has this ever happened to you with Webmedx?

Please respond only if you left on good terms with the company when they gave Webmedx a 2-week notice. The question doesn't apply to those who resigned without a 2-week notice to avoid getting fired or were terminated.

I'm thinking Webmedx is an honorable company and would let me work my 2 weeks, but with the state of the economy, I am naturally concerned about the possibility of being without 2 weeks of pay.

Thanks in advance!
Cool MT week gift from Webmedx...
Love it!  Cook's apron, with the Webmedx logo embroidered on the front.  I'll use it a lot.  Very nice gesture. 
We've been at high alert OT all this week at Webmedx. nm

Maybe she/he works 14 hour days/7 days a week? nm
x
think, people! If she does 250 lines/hour, same docs daily, will make $15/hour
nm
100,000/year - no way. I charge $35/hour and work 10 hour days - sm
AND I DO NOT CLEAR $100,000/YEAR.


what's not to believe - I said that I charge $35/hour and work 10 hour days AND DO NOT MAKE - sm
I DO NOT MAKE $100,000/YEAR

try READING the post.
$20 an hour is not even average for radiology. You should not make less than $25-30 per hour. sm
I work for Keystrokes and have for 3 years. I average 25 reports an hour, which is $31.25 an hour. I have 401, health insurance, direct deposit, life insurance. My lead tells me I'm wonderful when I talk to her, but I do not need a daily pat on the back.

I also have a good friend who works for them on a clinic. She only makes 0.08 per line but does 300 lines an hour, which is $24 an hour, again higher than your $20.

I don't think we're selling ourselves short. There are companies out there that are good to work for, 6 or 8 of them that I know of personally. Don't settle for $20 an hour.
Well if I could do 500 lines per hour, I would be making 35.00 an hour. sm
nothing to sneeze at. More than fair for having a 2-year degree. Come on people, we are all acting like we expect 6-digit incomes! Whatev!
Full time with Transtech is both. 40 hours per week and 5500 lines per week.

Nope .. email on 1/18 promised "within the next week." Here we are, 1 week later and no info.

The minimum is 5500 per week, NOT 6600 per week. I think you made a typo. :)
