MTSO: Cost EffectiveIn our twelve years of writing and publishing medical transcription software, we have talked on the phone to hundreds of small- to mid- sized transcription agencies. Just in December of 2006, one told us they had spent over $200,000 in developing a typing package for their MTs (and they wanted assistance from us in the line-counting module). I wonder if they will ever recoup that huge expenditure. Although I didn't say it, I think they would have been well-served to have spent two or three days investigating the capabilities of MPWord before committing such a block of capital into a typing package. (I believe MPWord, exceptionally versatile, would have undoubtedly done what they need.) The major software companies in the medical transcription field -- we are not one of them, we are a small business -- also offer typing packages, one charging $80,000 plus $3,000 per workstation. And the major companies love tying you in with their annual service contracts, totalling thousands per year. We, as a small business, stand behind our software, and have never charged anyone even a dime for support. It may be my Scottish blood, but even if I still had my medical transcription agency, I couldn't justify spending hundreds of thousands to develop my own software, or putting hundreds of thousands into the big company's coffer. I'd find a cost effective solution, one just as good, and one versatile. The cost of MTSO? How can we offer such software at such affordable prices? We speak about that here. We also offer Team at $35 to holders of the Professional license. The help file gives instructions how to manually gather together the setup files for your remote MTs, and you will need to manually put their finished work into the proper folders. We make this offer to the tiny service (3 or 4 MTs) so that they might grow into a small service (10 to 15 MTs), at which time the labor-saving features of MTSO might make economic sense. |
