So I'm a transcriptionist for a doctor I have been doing transcription for for about 8 years. For those of you who don't know medical transcriptionists are often paid piece work. In this case, I get 14 cents a line which they then changed to $5 a page for transcription. My work is very part-time for this doctor and I make anywhere from $400 a month to $1,000 a month usually. This is gigantic company had the nerve to email me and ask me if I would take a pay cut. I spoke to the doctor I work for and he offered to make up the difference in pay because he does not want to lose my services. Exam Works already takes 60% of whatever is charged in the California workers compensation system to generate reports and gives the doctor 40%. Now the greedy bastards want to do more. The doctor informed me that they just let go one of their senior employees that had been there for 20 years because they're trying to cut costs and they are cutting people left and right. Attached are my email from the lady and my response.
