Mandatory overtime
Yes as of a few months ago when I was there they had mandatory overtime. I think it is better for a company to offer incentive. Mandatory overtime is on a par with home slave.
Can anyone say if they still have Mandatory overtime??? nm
s
Mandatory overtime would keep me FAR away from them. nm
s
They used to have mandatory overtime. Can anyone address this? nm
s
Used to start off at 7.4 cpl and they had Mandatory Overtime! Don't know
s
Mandatory overtime's not gonna scare you away, huh? nm
s
Beware the Mandatory Overtime with them! Was discussed
s
No mandatory overtime on my team. In fact
work is low.
Post here in Jan. 2007 said they have mandatory overtime. Is this true?
s
I hear that Amphion is back on mandatory overtime again, so
they must have plenty of work if you can stand tons of emails.  For IC status, Advanced Transcription out of Oregon also seems to have plenty of work.
And mandatory overtime (they don't tell you that 'til after you're hired). nm

You will need 15 hours out of your day to reach your line count because you have to wait on work..sm

to trickle in.  The pay is good, always on time, Q/A is not good, platform is good.  In my opionion, they have over hired on many accounts and this causes a lot of down time therefore causing you to work all day and night long to get in your counts in...if you don't care about hearing requested dictation completed....good company!   


Mandatory Line Counts
Just call me toad breath! LOL
Mandatory Daily Line Counts..

 Can someone tell me what the daily/weekly/per pay period mandatory line counts are for full time transcriptionists? (at the bigger medical transcription services, i.e., Transcend, Diskriter, MDI, etc.)  Also, how much more does a CMT make these days?  What about shift differentials and holiday pay?  It seems only fair that if an MT works a major holiday, like Christmas or Thanksgiving, that they are fairly compensated, but for some reason I wouldn't be surprised if they are not. 


Thanks a lot!


 


Line requirement
I was told 6,000/two week period.
Line requirement

What I meant to post, 6,000 lines/two weeks for a part timer, 12,000 lines/two weeks for a full time worker, whether you are statutory or employee


what is their line requirement ? - nm

line requirement
What is the line requirement for them for full time?
Line requirement is 11,000 per pay period. sm

You keep a time sheet and turn it in every 2 weeks.  I am not sure as to how much time you are given to get up to speed, but they are a great bunch of people and seem to be very understanding and caring.  I am sure they would work with you if you were having problems.  And yes, you can make up your time if you are missing some hours.  Hope that helps. 


Good luck!



Future Net's line requirement pp?

What is Future Net's line count requirement per pay period for PT and FT? 


INMT

What is line requirement at Transtech?

Line count requirement

There are different pay levels.  To stay at the top level, you need to do 200 lph minimum.  P.S.  The web site is www.transolutions.net for more info. 


Yes, partially, if a line requirement is met per PP.

What is your minimum line requirement for FT?
Just curious what all is out there....thanks.
If you are entry level, what is the line requirement.

and how long will they give you to make that count.  Also can someone tell me what the pay will be for entry level.  I see they are hiring all the time and was interested.


 


Thanks.


Any companies with a daily line requirement of 800?
I'm serious. Are there any companies IC or employee with a daily line requirement of around 800 or so? I seriously lose concentration after that but I love to transcribe.
I thought the line requirement was 1200 for SE - sm
Do you have any idea why this person above is saying 1400 lines/pay period and telling me to brush up on my math skills? I'm confused! I only want to do 1000 lines per day right now, at least until my youngest is off to Kindergarten! I guess it depends on how easy it is to make 1200 lines/pay period. I could give it a shot to try for their incentive bonus and if I find I am doing it consistently, maybe change my status. Thanks for your help!
line count requirement at Webmedx

Last week I trained on a my account,which is very large with many dicators.  Today is the end of my first full week of production and I am averaging 110 lph. The requirements are 150 lph.  My trainer said that studies show it takes an average of 30 days to get used to a new account and reach production.  Therefore, I have 2 more weeks to reach 150 lph,and I am worried.  My supervisor said to work towards goal, but I know line count is the bottom line.  Can any Webmedx MTs shed some light on what they have experienced.  Also, is it usually customary to give at least 90 days?  My quality is good;however, I really need to crank out the lines.  Thanks


What is their daily line count requirement? nm

rate and line count requirement
So you know the rate for single coverage and the line count requirement to be eligible for coverage? Do they have dental also?

Thanks---Sue
I am on my "final warning" for not making line requirement.
if my line requirement is not met.
Anyone know what is the full time line requirement per week? nm
Thanks.
Hourly rate PT hours & fewer line requirement
Title means nothing at my company. All I do is assign work.
Stinks. If you state your line rate requirement, they vanish. (nm))

We are preparing to change to Clarity/line counts, rad. What is the requirement?
Spheris employee...
It absolutely is NOT a reasonable request for a minimum line requirement!

We are not machines!  20 years ago when I started out, my first job had a requirement of 800 lines per day (8 hours), that's 100 lines an hour.  Five years later it was 1000 lines a day.  I think the standard right now is around 1200 lines a day.  Now, someone's asking for 1600 as a minimum!?!?!!? 


I'm not saying there aren't people out there that can meet and exceed 1600 in a day.  I'm simply saying making 1600 a minimum requirement is absurd and unfair.

Been Trying To Reach Phoenix....
But my e-mails return undeliverable.  Have been trying to submit a resume - can you help?  Thx
Check it out for yourself, once you reach full
retirement age and draw social security, you no longer have to pay in so that applies to the employer as well. Got laugh from the person who said thought I was an American MT- have been and still am after all these many years.
Five months seems like a long time to reach goals.
nm
I'm sorry; I doubt you can reach that 2000 goal or anything close in 40 hours.

Mandatory OT...
I just needed to rant that I am sick of Mandatory OT when I am IC AND typed 1400 lines in a day. There is no pay differential for this overtime until after 1700 lines that day.
Yup...mandatory OT bit the big one.
Glad I'm done with that!
Yep, working and mandatory OT
I love it!!!
Mandatory OT Amphion
You must be on the account with Drs. P, K, et. al. Been there done that. Mandatory OT should be compensated. It costs us money to rearrange our schedules. I exited giving my input and it looks like nothing I had to say made any difference. e-mail me if you like.
Amphion mandatory OT
When I worked there, the mandatory OT consisted of horrible dictators that the in-house MTs did not want to do. If you were making line rate before mandatory OT, you would quickly fall into the pit with mandatory OT. Also demographics on some accounts are a nightmare. Doesn't mandatory overtime make one a home slave?
Mandatory OT? Is that even legal?
x
I thought it was going to become mandatory
That all physicians would have to go to EMR by the year 2010.
Diskriter used to make it mandatory that
a Transcriptionist with less than 3 years experience was not to be hired. Now they are dropping their standards to 2 years, no voice testing, etc. They do have a large turnover
