i think it varies from company to company and/or location
PA - Pittsburgh area is one locale, Philadelphia area also.
TriState area - PA, NJ, DE.

Live in Oregon and I am cheap, cheap compared to others in the area.

LA Location
Gray is in south LA between Houma and Thibodaux, south east, I think, from where you are. About 1 hour and 15 minutes SW of NOLA.

That is what it boils down to. Here in the Pacific Northwest (of course it depends on how much experience you have), experienced hospital MTs are paid at an average rate of $15-23 per hour.
Location
It is in Phoenix AZ. Just wanted to know if anyone on here would have any info on this company. I am applying.
Is this right? (location of JR in name): DOE, JOHN JR ? Thanks for your help. NM
it really depends on your location
I live in a cheap midwestern state with traditionally lower hourly wages, and I work for a county hospital, so compare accordingly.
I make 15.00/hr base pay plus 1.50/hr shift differential plus between 1.50 and 2.00/hr production bonus.

home office location-sm
I will take another look at another location for my office but I do like it where it is because it is handy for me (when there is no visitors), convenient to the kitchen, bathroom (I only have1), and I can start the evening meal and still work, etc. Why can't anything be easy?
curious about location of NEMT
looked on their website and it hasn't been updated since 2003. i may have worked for NEMT years ago. are they in massachusetts?
Location does make a difference . . .
I should have mentioned that I am in a large metro area. But I do still think you deserve a raise ;).
Seriously, I just think that is awfully low for ANY area. I don't know how many lines you average per page, though.
Now, I have seen radiology paying in the range of $1-2 per page, but this was still not what the office was paying, but was what the Transcriptionist was being paid by the middle man.
One other thought that may seem to contradict my previous thoughts . . . you do not want to price yourself out of a job or have too much of an increase too quickly, depending, of course, on how important this account is to your livelihood, and any raise at all is better than none.
Good luck!

location: worldwide (red flag!)
compensation: $50 (red flag!), is it per page, per hour, per day... as i understand it, craig's list is to sell items to local parties. It is not where i would look for, or respond to a job from.
varies
Relaxer $50
Wash and curly set $40 with 7 tip (I have extremely thick hair and its worth it)
Relaxer and rinse ($60) 10 tip for letting me be the first customer on Sat morning (6 am)
varies
I worked in house up until the year 2000. In the NE area of the US I only made 9.00 an hour. In Florida, I made 18.00 an hour plus 8 cpl per line bonus after 2000 lines per day.
Varies. 11p-7a, 12-8a, 9p-6a, somewhere in there. nm
s
It varies
I have one account that uses a 60-character line (including spaces) but they only pay 8 cents a line.
I worked for another account that did 65 (with spaces) and paid 10 cents.
Depends on what the client is willing to pay and how much profit the MTSO wants to make. 
varies sm.
If you are with a company over 50 employees, have been there for 1 year, you are entitled to 12 weeks unpaid FMLA leave. Maternity leave is covered for 6+ weeks (depending on delivery method, complications, etc) by short term disability. Good luck!
It varies...
Generally speaking, the standard these days is 65 characters per line including spaces. Some choose to bill by 55 characters per line, some by gross line, some 65 characters with no spaces, some by the page, and some by the minute.

Price and location of having a website made?
I have been a MT for 12 years, and I now have 2 Independant Contractors working under me. I believe I am reaching the point of needing a website, and I would really like a way for my clients to upload their .dss voice files through my website. Anyone know where I should begin looking or what I can expect to pay?
Call the news station in your location
who handles this sort of complaint. Once you contact the media, you will be paid immediately. Good Luck!!!
Free long distance. What is the location?nm

need online file storage location
We transfer our files back and forth via email and very frequently the clinic is "missing completed" files which we have sent them. This is beginning to take up way too much time to look up and resend.
I need an online storage site where us transcriptionists (3) can send a copy of finished work and also the clinic receptionsist can also access to look for "missing files." (Preferably free or low priced) Any ideas?? Thanks. Free
It varies by county in NC
I live in Randolph County, NC and the high school kids here can miss no more than 10 days of school per year before they have to start making up time. The elementary kids can miss 20. If this kid has missed that much school, the school should be contacting social services or someone to get involved. In NC parents can be held responsible and even be put in jail for their children not attending school like they are supposed to. It is truancy and it is illegal.
Oregon -- really varies
11 t0 14 cpl small MTSO 12 to 18 large MTSO. Really varies around here and also depends on whether you deliver, print, or all by digital.
It varies greatly...
Where I work the range is from 6 cpl up to almost 12 cpl so you just don't know. I guess decent is 10 or more. Anything less is not too good in my opinion especially considering I made 8 cents per GROSS line 10 years ago which would equal I don't know maybe around 11 cents per 65 character line and again that was 10 years ago. The only profession I know of where the pay continues to go down! Thanks technology! :(
Varies with the expander
As far as I know, there is no universal shortcut. Each text Expander has a hotkey that you can use to temporarily disable the program without logging out of it.
It varies. 65 is not always the # used. Some places
s
Varies by account
Not trying to make it completely confusing, but the BOS is a guideline and not really a hard and fast rule - at least that's what I've found. I work PT for one company on a large clinic account and they want me to put what the doctor dictates, whether it be b.i.d., etc., or COPD or the like. My FT job for another company has completely different guidelines - I have to expand b.i.d., a.m., etc. and expand all abbreviations unless very specifically told otherwise.
Generally, unless told otherwise I expand in the diagnosis and impression section and leave the rest verbatim.
Clear as mud, huh?
It varies. Newbies usually
start around 6 or 7, average experience around 8ish, and very experienced in everything can make anywhere from 9-11. (This would be as an employee with benes, spaces included. As an IC or without spaces, cpl would be more to make up for that.)
Time varies
I worked for a doctor like the one above, records kept for years because they were so slack and careless they'd lose their nose if not attached. The doctors in the group I am with presently, I keep the notes for 3 months out of courtesy, but they have never had to ask for one. It all depends on whether others do their job or not as to how long to keep the reports. Talk to the company/doctor you work for about how long they want you to keep records.
depends on location, I know someone who lost a local account - sm
in Woodbridge, VA, was charging .12 a line (60 character line), got underbid and lost it after having had it for years. Now in order to get more but look less, she bids at .10 a line but a 50 char. line....comes out to .13 if a 65 cpl. You can't get much over .10 around here on your own which really stinks, or do some fancy accounting which in this case works.
..in an easy to find location like your Desktop or a certain file. nm

i dunno, maybe 20? it varies depending
on hot topics, mental duldrums, needing breaks from bad dictators, etc. Its usually very momentary.
I don't think FEDERAL varies whereas state...sm
I think states set their own regulations but I do believe that Federal is all one set of rules/regulations. The police might be able to tell you but I think you'd find out so much more via the internet if you know what state he is in. I found someone in jail recently. I put in her name and she is locked up and probably going to get the books slammed at her. Very young nonthinking girl too.
All states and even federales have websites. You can type in INMATE information and then the state and all kinds of links will come up. You can probably this way find his name at some institution and if paroled, call the institution he was paroled from and find out more details if possible.
BEST of luck on this!!! The internet is great for finding even old friends (I found several 30+ years after being in contact).
Forgot to say the income varies according to....sm
what company they are working for. Everybody doesn't make only 12-15 hr. Just like any job, depended on the person and who they worked for.
It varies but make between $12 and $16 an hour - nm

It varies but for me it works about 10 lines per minute of dictation.

It varies so much with your ESLs, how good you are with your shortcuts, macros, etc. but most jobs

I've also found it varies from editor to editor -
In one case I researched it fully, and found that both of them were wrong, and I had been right all along.
[Sigh........]
I think it varies greatly from company to company...sm
I was hired five months ago by a national straight out of school at 8 cpl. I think it just depends on your knowledge level and ability, and of course, what the company is willing to pay.
The position varies from place to place..
Sometimes you end up doing VR, which can be really easy or a real pain. Sometimes you end up simply editing files and all is good. Other times, you end up with more job responsibilities and hours than you ever wanted. All in all better than typing LOL.
Is DSL not available in your area?
It's worth it to have it. It's tax deductible as a business/work expense. It's only about $35 a month here total, compared to $20 a month for dial-up. It's so much faster, more reliable and easier to use than dial-up. It also doesn't tie up your phone line like dial-up does, so no need for a second phone line and no getting bounced off the Internet when someone calls while you're trying to work. I'd still have it even if I couldn't write it off on my taxes.
I'm in the D/FW area and we have taken in several ...
and Dallas is making sure the children are in school, there are special job fairs to make sure the adults get jobs, even though our economy was terrible to start with, companies are making jobs for them, and every one that is interviewed says they are never going home and making their home here in Dallas/Fort Worth. I know they need places to say, what happened to them is terrible, but this area really did not need the strain of all the added people. Several of the people have been offered new housing back in their state or such, but they say they do not want to move again. I just think everyone needs to be looking at the big picture as to what is going to happen in the long run, as New Orleans is going to need some of their residents to come back and help rebuild. I have a son that has been looking for a job for over a year in the field he went to school for and has had no luck and now he has to compete against 1000s more people. I just don't get it.
If you have one in your area, may I
They are a corporation who apparently does give a rat's a** about its employees. They don't give their top people big bonuses, etc. and instead pay their employees a living wage...a REAL living wage and have one of the best reputations for treating their employees like real human beings from all I've read about them.
See if this is in your area

Since you mentioned you were also from CA, I was wondering if you have seen much about relocalization and eating local? I have read a lot about this and try to only purchase goods that are produced within 100 miles of my home in the South Bay or if not available within that radius, only from our state. I have also started my own vegetable garden growing different types of squash, lettuce, spinach as well as others in addition to fruit. Everything I am growing is either from seed that is not genetically modified and is organic or I purchased from the nursery from organic growers. My housemate is suprised at how much variety we have with our container gardening. She was just saying this morning that she never realized how easy it was to grow things yourself.
Another thing to support your local farmer is to sign up for a CSA. They had an article not too long ago about how organic goods really wanted by consumers, but even though these goods are organic, they are being brought from different parts of the world, which kind of kills the organic goodness considering you are expending oil to deliver it.
As for offshoring of our work, I have found since I moved to CA getting close to a year ago that there seem to be a lot of companies who do not offshore and will not consider it a consideration. I think there is hope:)
