Yes, but do you have an accurate way to count those lines? Has TT fixed

0.8 x 1000 lines = $80.00 - 0.8 x 1500 lines = $120.
1000 LINES PER DAY
How long does it take to do 1000 lines per day for a mix of dictators for acute care. Thanks
1000 lines a day. nm

I had over 1000 lines my first day
Still going up as I build my Expanders and get used to the docs.
I produce around 1000 lines per day...
I have seen my production increase quite a lot in the last four months. When I first started I could only get about 500 lines a day...so I get a little more every day. :-)
Do you have enough work? 1000 lines a day?
I have read on some of the threads that there is not enough work to keep everyone busy.
at 80+ reports a day, you are getting more than 1000 lines in

eTransPlus is 1000 lines per day. nm
1000 lines in eight hours??
If a person types that slow then obviously being an MT may not be for them! I type around 300 LPH and that averages up to a lot more than 7 bucks an hour.
If you can't make 1000 lines in 8 hours,
in the wrong profession.
goodness 1000 lines short!!!
It kinda sounds like problems on both sides to me.
Not a good thing. Hope you get paid and the correct amount. Labor Board
The company DOES have a way to figure out how many lines you did FOR SURE. Really think they don't and would depend on the MT for the count. They have all sorts of ways to manipulate the count too.
Must be a small company. 1000 lines/day is not that impressive. nm

For companies that hire FT 1000-1200 lines, what happens when
Due to low work or a particularly bad day maybe in which you struggled with difficult physicians? I am an IC so never had to deal with how many lines to get in a day or having to keep up with a certain quota. I am not particularly interested in any insurance or anything but perhaps PTO and 401k, so taking a look around and trying to figure it all out. Thanks MTs!
7 cent a line $8.75 hr (1000 lines 8 hr=$70) TERRIBLE nm

Northeast Transcription says that FT is 32 hrs/1000 lpd, but 70-char.lines with all spaces and

Seems like job discrepancy
The mommies/expectant/pregnant girls get special benefits that the mature/aged MT's do not get. They get maternity/paternity PAID LEAVE ! This seems more like age discrepancy. Where is the aged/mature MT's PAID DAYS/WEEKS to make this an equal benefit -- and NOT age discrepancy. We mature individuals enjoy PAID holidays as much as those who get pregnant. We have enough children in this world now -- adopt a child.
Seems like job discrepancy
Just to inform you all - (and I would be considered aged/mature MT) It is a federal law - Maternity Leave is treated as a disability. That means if you get paid for maternity leave, they must pay for someone that has a disability that prevents them from working. It is not vacation!! It is not age discrimination. I have worked as an MT for many-many years, but my husband owns (owned) a construction co. with over 50 employees. So, I am familiar with human resources laws, etc
Discrepancy
In our conference call, we were told the statutory employee status would end effective Jan 1. They pushed the employee side of things and hemmed hawed on the IC side.
Can't because it is ** fixed ***
Don't know what the problem is at Transtech now, but not the same as when I was hired on -- ability to achieve a good line count has become quite impossible. One of the reasons is due to decent dictators going to voice recognition, but there are other reasons.
I don't like the fact that we are BLOCKED from CTRL I from seeing our previous reports and from getting our immediate line counts. We are also not ever permitted to see a list of jobs that we have finished/sent -- not in ExText, nor on our our paystubs -- not even the number of lines on our paystubs, just ** piece work **. Very hard to verify that we are getting paid for every line!
Not a discrepancy, just a lag time - they don't count headers or footers.

Spheris/Cornerstone CUE program/line discrepancy
I just started cornerstone last payperiod and there have been line discrepancies according to my mentor. I show I did 3,024 lines last week and she only showed 1597. When we had our weekly mentor call I showed her how you have to go to the next day to get all of the lines (i.e. 11/17/2007- 11/18/2007 to pull up the lines for 11/17/2007). She also said that CUE only showed that I was only for 18 hours which is a load!! I worked 40 hours. She said that everytime it pauses it adds that to the time. It pauses when I am spell checking. But none of that added up to such a discrepancy.
I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem. Or maybe I just needed to vent. I like the idea of having instant line counts but they are not even getting the same ones we are. I have to double check my paycheck this time just to see if they are paying me all of my lines. 
the reason for the discrepancy has been explained by the owner of the company already - nm

as of about three weeks ago the had not fixed anything
ugh!!!!!
i had this problem; never got it fixed and quit to move on. sm
at the time i knew of another person with the problem too and neither one of us was getting it solved. it's something with your computer, not actual pedal.
Ok. I could handle once as a mistake if explained promptly and fixed. Twice? I would run sm
as fast as I could. Twice in two months? What if you never get paid at all? You would be better going with a national while getting your own so that you have benefits and a steady paycheck. Start your own accounts slowly so that you start right.
Information on axolotl. Is it a fixed or flexible schedule?
Are you off all major holidays or do you have to have them approved and how many weeks paid vacation do you get?
fixed by January, I was told. I love my boss. Maybe you sm
were not a great employee! Ever thought of that?
If you read in their FAQ section, fixed headers and footers are NOT counted as well as bolding, un-

You're -- not your okay typos fixed -- irritates me about you pregnant girls getting wonderfu
benefits from TT.
1000 per day - nm

Are you serious? Someone doing 1000 lph?
I have not seen that. Don’t know how in the world that would be done.
1800 lines is easily achieved. I average 300-340 lines per hour. nm

It's $1000, and you would't believe what the premium is. nm

950-1000 weekly?
So I am curious, what company do you work with to make 950-1000 a week? I will be a new MT at the end of May next year, and I would like to know. If you dont mind that is.
When I said $1000 a month - sm
I meant that is what it would cost to get a good family policy without a ridiculous deductible through other companies.
I was offered a position by another company and turned it down because the premium was $900+ per month. However, it covered a lot more and had much less out of pocket than this policy has turned out to have. Maybe I should have chosen differently.
Minimum of 1000 lpd at 8 to 8.25 cpl. nm
f
Meaning, you are not getting 1000....
which I thought was the requirement. I have a friend who tried them out and went days without work.
DSG is 35hrs/1000 lpd.
.
i strive for $1000 a
week and can usually hit it in 40 hours or so.
$1000 deductible
I'm single and I pay $75 per period for the $1000 deductible, $25 office visit. There is also a $2000 deductible option that a single person would pay $37.50 per pay period, $30 office visit.
MedWare might be 1000 lpd for FT as it's 500 lpd for
s
they have ins with a $1000 deduc sm
or 2500 deduc. About a 30 dollar difference per month. 401 K, dental, eye, life insurance, etc. etc. Pretty decent package.
Over 1000 lph? You must be rich!
LOL
even 6 a ripoff $7,50 hr/1000 ln/day 125 ln hr
that is $60 a day. Take longer than 8 hours, less hourly. Com'on. Com'on. Wake up, lesser of the 2 evils acceptable. Nope, not me.
10 lines per minute = 1500 lines for 150 minutes - average. nm

I average 1200-1400 lines per day with a national, and am only getting around 600-800 lines per day.
It's been this way since the day before Thanksgiving. I've been doing this for almost 30 years now, and more often than from Thanksgiving until the new year is the slowest time of the year. I have some months where I am swamped with up to 2000 lines per day. I stash that little extra money, and take advantage of a handful of extremely slow days this time of the year to actually cook dinner, decorate for Christmas, or do Christmas shopping. I actually anticipate this slow time every year and have grown to enjoy the breathing time. Any time I have attempted to pick up extra work with another company to supplement these slow times, the minute I get adjusted to the new accounts, etc. I have no time to finish all of my work because my full time job with national gets slammed again. Hang in there if you can, and hopefully your work will pick up significantly around New Years.
They work with you to make sure you get the lines required or the amount of lines you want...
I have never had a problem getting more work
$1000 weekly gives me a goal to aim for
I look forward to reaching that goal!
What is a good pay per 1000 words?
