VR

Maybe they have a super VR system but my experience with one was negative. I found it much more difficult to correct what the doctor actually said and what the VR transcribed than to just transcribe. I am no longer working for that employer but understand those who chose to stay are deleting the VR and typing from scratch - much quicker, less aggravating and a lot more accurate.

Just got a letter in the mail from MQ stating that they will be paying 80% of our base rate for ASR. - MQMT
- Are you currently working on ASR? - Curious
  - I do a minimal amount and the letter was about 2 pages long but mostly about ASR. - MQMT
    - ASR - yakaback
- About letter -- don't have it -- was that - MQ MT wanting to know more
- no way they can keep us at regular pay with VR - we might become millionaires!
- That still is not a paid line rate. If your base is $0.10 per line, it will be $0.08 cpl. - VR Queen
  - Have you forgotten we have not gotten the new pay plan yet which will lower the base rate I am sure - MQMT
    - ASR - yakaback

    - let me re-phrase my question: How will the MT know what is ASR and what is regular transcription?sm - wondering MQMT
      - you will be editing a completed ASR report vs typing - a fresh report (nm)
- Will all MTs be changed over to ASR? - Confused
- from what i've heard, its a lot harder - and takes longer to do
  - ASR - yakaback
