Invoicing

Posted By: Patti on 2005-11-17
In Reply to: Question for ICs - PLEASE READ - EmmaMT

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.

Invoicing

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!


Invoicing
You can use Quick Books or Quicken and put in the amount by hourly rate or per line.  Anyway, works great for me.
Invoicing can be set
to whatever you need it to be for that particular facility. There are a lot of options and I bet one that would work!!
invoicing software
I use Microsoft Works version 7.0. It does everything I need as far as my business goes. I also use it to track my line count and my IRA expenses as well. A very versatile program.
Hope this helps.
Need help with invoicing, first time...

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!!


Invoicing program
Well, I just bought Quickbook Simple Edition 2007. It supposedly is very highly rated and very user friendly. Don't know if it the same as Quicken, but we will see. Got a good deal though, $35 on Ebay, brand new and sealed, not a return. This is $99 retail. Thank you all for your input. I knew I would get help on this board.
There is free invoicing software out there. Maybe someone

Figuring time for invoicing...

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 use the invoicing report that Sylcount produces.

Line counting/invoicing software
I'm wondering if there is any line counting software that "stores" each individual doctor's line counts time after time, and then will provide invoicing (say twice a month) from those stored line counts.  I'm looking for a way to just store up the line counts for each doctor, go in twice a month and easily send invoices for those stored line counts.  Not sure if this can be done.  Thank you!
Is there an invoicing program that will charge by the page?

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


Any suggestions where I can obtain free invoicing software, or reasonably priced. nm
