She does not seem to want to contact me about the money she owes me, either. Thirty years and 3.8 cpl. Unbelievable.

Whats the company's name?

Whats the latest on this company?
I had heard at one time they were a great company to work for, are they still maintaining that status?
Is this a live count of lines paid for or same as CTRL I that we do not get paid for ?? nm

Any company that makes you wait to get paid until they get paid by the client
is not a company you want to get involved with. That's part of being an MTSO, figuring out how to cover your payroll while waiting to get paid. I would stay away!
Yes you DO get paid for 100 lines
ichart is correct.
Me too.. the outsourced company was paid for and paid me for headers, but OSI does/did not.

Whoops that should have been lines paid nm

I get paid 8 cpl with 1 minute = 10 lines

No, for every 100 lines you type you get paid 100
The ctrl-I counts headers and footers in the line count on the Extext document. However, you get paid for what you type, not the headers which were already in place. Maybe one day there will be a perfect line counter where neither of them counts headers but for now there are two different counters, the one that comes with the Extext document itself (including headers) and the one that comes from WHAT YOU ACTUALLY TYPE AND ARE PAID FOR. How much simpler does this need to be explained? You get paid for what you type - everything you type. Period. Okay? Just because Extext counts the header doesn't mean a thing because ichart counts what you type and that is what you are paid by. So far, there is no system for Extext to NOT include the header because it is reading the entire document including the header (that you didn't put type in the first place). Extext count is wrong (although a little higher). ichart count is correct.
Got paid, but once again not for all my lines. Third time in a row
I have been shorted. I'm done.
So if you transcribe 100 lines, you dont get paid for
x
You get paid for 15 lines no matter how many blanks
/
You get paid 15 lines for reports with any # of blanks
If you do a full listen you get paid for all the lines. They discourage this unless the MT is on 100% proofing because they have a massive backlog. My pay was roughly half of my pay as an MT and I was one who got fired a few months ago because they were doing away with QA's in the US. Can't imagine why they are hiring for US QA's again.
Last I heard 10,000 lines PPP gets half your insurance paid.
,
Now that bonuses are paid by total lines per week sm
it doesn't matter what your LPH total is, so you can stay clocked in or out for those little things, as you choose.
I've been with the company almost 10 years. I know the truth. Hawaii was a company-paid vacation.

whats the FTC?

Whats OP?
LOL!!
Whats up Doc?
What is up DOc. Annonimity is the best in the world. I have been with JLG far longer than you and I dont know who you refer to when you say an owner who cares for her employees. Must be a friend of yours becasuse those of us who have to work dont see the kindness you have lied about.
why run? whats happening
I wonder what caused you to say that...I worked for Accustat of Albuquerque, NM for a year and got let go along with about 20 other MTs last December (after Christmas) with no warning or notice whatsoever. I was told the doctors for those clinics were no longer required to dictate. Just like that with one email my job was gone. I have learned this is a very unstable job field.
whats the 411 on smartmed
Ad sounds awesome. Anyone been there, done that? Only 1 post in the archives I could find.
StenoMed....whats the pay like????
Just saw an ad for StenoMed...anyone what the pay is like? Also what platform they use. Thanks so much!!
here's whats wrong with SPi
go with your gut and go buy some good running shoes.
see this post on this board for details about their issues: http://forum.mtstars.com/company/v/1/63381.html
So, if a company paid by VBC (sm)
(visible black character) at a 55-character line, would the pretty much equal out to a 65-character line with spaces?
whats the $$$ on that daily incentive?
whats the world coming to?
It's sad. 
Whats the contact details?
if you could email me the contact details it would help a lot thank you.
MDI-MD? Whats the scoop? I know I have seen info on them
but for some reason search is not bringing anything up. Would prefer to hear from both current and former employees.
whats wrong with windscribe? nm

Whats the scoop on TTS out of New Hampshire?
Are they still on the crap list?
are you bragging or whats your point?
LOL
That's whats so great about America.....
you can choose to bury your head in the sand and hope it will never affect YOU, and that it will all go away. But hey, it's all good.
Well of course I plan to. Whats your problem?
MDI, Transcend, or wherever, we're all in this together. Unless of course you're on the suit-side of the fence.
Company paid internet
For those of you who do your transcription via internet, does the company you work for reimburse you for your internet cost? If so, how much?
Looking for paid holidays with a company. n/m
c
I agree -- if someone does not get paid by a company, that's something we all sm
need to know! As much as some of us may love doing what we do, I doubt any of us want to do it for free. One of the purposes of this board is to network and share such information. I know if someone did not pay me, of course I would go through the legal channels, but I would be screaming my head off here, warning everyone too.
To the OP, sorry this happened to you -- hope you get your money soon.
It wasn't your company and you were paid well
you deserve a share of the profit when she sells HER company?
there is a midsized company with 900 lines a day
lines because people end up doing only the minimum, so they over staff...then no one has enuf to do and no one is happy. bad management in my opinion. Two employees who will consistently do 1500 lpd each is less expensive to the employer than 3 who do 900 each.
My company goes by lines instead of hours.
5000 lines every two weeks.
Does anyone know of a company that is looking for an IC to produce at least 500 lines/day . . . sm
and I can work on my OWN SCHEDULE, just as long as it's back in 24 hours, and who pays at least 8cents/line per 65-characters with spaces??? I keep applying to places that seem to fit this, but then they want me to work certain hours, that's not what being an INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR entails. Thanks you guys!
If your company hasn't paid you come payday and
promises it will either be overnighted to your or in your account by the end of the day and it isn't, and the next day the money isn't there and they wait until the end of the day to tell you they don't know when you'll get paid doesn't that sound very fishy? I think the CEO should have issued a statement and outlined exactly what the issue is. If it isn't a matter of money (like they don't have it) then why not say what the problem is.
Someone mentioned this situation yesterday or the day before and got reamed, but I think this is now a MAJOR issue. Fortunately for me I got a big tax return and I haven't paid all the bills yet so I'm not hurting, but I can imagine there are more than a few who NEED their checks NOW.
company-paid phone bill?? sm
Crazy question, have high speed internet and AOL for my mail. I do not have unlimited long distance. Is there any company for whom you would not run up a huge phone charge, could not do that! Crazy question, I know - but doesn't hurt to ask.
Why would you keep working for a company for 3 months without being paid? sm
I'm sorry this happened to you, but when the first month's check didn't arrive, that would have been it. I still enjoy transcribing (most days) but not enough to do it for free.
Good luck to you in getting your money That's an awful thing to happen to anyone.
185 lines? The company I'm working for wants 250......what is the average???? Anyone???
Thanks!
my company, not Keystrokes, 1020 lines/day
nm
I know of one company that counts lines 3 different ways
Stats are enabled on one platform, not enabled on a second platform and also not enabled on a third platform. They are all Dictaphone Extext programs and the lines are counted three different ways depending on which account you are assigned to. Hope its not the same company you work for only to get a rude awakening.
Whats the word on Deventure (DVHP) these days?
Prefer current or recent employee experiences. Archives seem to be a mix of good and bad, but nothing recent.
Went from hospital to company using DQS, line count has definitely went down, don't get paid for
demographics even if we have to enter them in. I've put a lot more abbrev in my Expander since switching over to DQS to help compensate.
First rule, never work for a company who says "I'll pay you when I get paid." sm
This is unacceptable. Any company with a decent client base gets paid at least net 30 days. I previously operated a small service and paid my subcontractors twice monthly despite being paid net 30 days by my physician groups. Yes, it was a hardship for me, but I brought those who worked hard to help me maintain my service first. Any company who pays their workers when they get paid, does not deserve to employ others. Plain and simple there is no excuse for this. Please, please find a company who values your work instead of using you.
I do not know anything about the company, but did read posts that they paid late. sm
The pay was decent, though, at 10 cpl, but it was 3rd shift every weekend, and I decided to pass just in case I ever decide to get a life.
Sounds like you had a bad experience -- sorry for that. Hope wherever you are at now is better. 
The company I worked for paid by the dictation minute as well. They said sm
that was the only way to know what you had transcribed, since there is already so much information there. If I remember correctly, it was something like Meditech where you are typing in the patient's actual chart. It didn't work out to be very profitable for me, but perhaps this company has a better system. The company I worked for was MedTran Unlimited or something like that. I was only part-time, but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. After a few days, I realized it wasn't going to work out for me and so I gave my notice, and so they didn't pay me for the training or any of the work I had done. I haven't read anything bad about MD-IT, so they might work with you and make it worth your while.
Good luck. And thanks for the compliment on my doggie -- she is very much my baby.
