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

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.
1000 lines discrepancy needs to be fixed.

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

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?
How many words are on a 65 character line - in general?
$100 per year? I was spending about $1000 sm
with my yearly membership to AAMT, a subscription to the journal, membership dues for my local chapter and fees for attending symposia for credits, the cost of driving/traveling to these things, etc. The math didn't work for me one single bit.
I make 950-1000 per week
I am an employee, only 8 cpl with incentive over 1200 lpd, work a strict 8 hr/day, 40 hr/wk shift. I do work on only one account, about 75% op notes, although it is a very large teaching hospital so still have a very large variety of dictators (currently wrestling with my list of 500+ new residents for this summery). I have full hospital benefits. It is possible.....
$700 is very good, except as IC you are losing 7.5% in having to pay your own taxes.
Ok, my tax person saying on every $1000 made
I should put aside about $200.00 in the bank. I pay state tax, SS and federal, of course. That does not seem like that much to pay but I guess tax folks should know?
Over 1000?! I left there 18 months ago...
..and there were only 300 or so! They hired that many since then?

A $1000 computer is bit different than buying $10

Two payments of $500 are indeed $1000 in a bonus.

Transcend Services: Ranked No. 1 among Georgia's top public companies
Published on: 05/22/08
Ticker symbol: TRCR
Where traded: Nasdaq
Chief executive: Larry G. Gerdes, 59
Headquarters: Atlanta
Business summary: Transcend Services provides medical transcription services to the healthcare industry, such as physician dictation of a medical case. Its market includes hospitals, hospital systems and specialty clinics.
When you go to the doctor or to the hospital, the physician dictates or writes a record of that visit. That report is then transcribed for future use by the doctor or by other doctors. Gerdes talked about the company's success.
Q: What is there about your business or your business strategy that resulted in a Top 10 performance?
A: Mostly fundamentals. But two major initiates we took three years ago had an impact on our margins. We implemented speech recognition technology and last year started seeing the results of that technology. Twenty-five percent of our volume goes through the speech recognition engine and that has increased our margins and efficiency.
We also began, a year and a half ago, sending work overseas – to India – for overnight and weekend shifts, and that has had an impact on our gross margins.
Q: One source of strength for many companies hurt by the domestic economy has been the continued growth of foreign economies. How much of your success was due to foreign sales or investments?
A: We have transcribers in India who handle about 15 percent of the business. But our customers are in the continental United States.
The transcription industry in this country has inadequate staffing or capacity. We have a quickly aging population and as a result we can't handle all the required work. Out of necessity as well as for efficiency [we outsourced to India].
Q: Even if the economy does not sink into a technical recession, analysts see slow growth and weakness ahead for an extended period. What is your forecast, or guidance, for the economy and especially the sectors that most affect your business?
A: We don't give guidance as such but we tell our investors we would expect to grow the company by 20 to 25 percent on the revenue line. We can grow the bottom line at a faster rate than that because of improving margins. We will also contemplate growing the bottom line faster through acquisitions.
Q: What's on the horizon for your company that you can talk about, such as an acquisition, stock offering or buyback, new products, expansion.
A: We are right in the middle of the medical crisis. The electronic record is coming fast now — an electronic record that is available to the patient and the doctor. We [handle] 30 to 40 percent of that record automatically. One of the big cornerstones in the industry is the more efficient use of information, which reduces the redundancy of tests and other inefficiencies in health care that are related to turnaround time in hospitals. The patient is discharged from the hospital and that discharge summary may become the admission summary next time around, or maybe to a nursing home where the information is relevant.
Q: Will the computer eventually take over the job of the transcriber?
A: A big share will be done by computer, but we still have language and speech that will always be a requirement of the medical specialty to edit. The computer can help the transcriber do more. And this is a good career opportunity. These people work from home. They are in total control of their work.
We have 1,000 domestic transcribers and 600 in India.

5.50 per 1000 words @ 5 KS per word
you are typing 5000 KS to earn %$5.50. Based on a 65-character line with spaces, that comes out to approx 77 lines to earn $5.50. 154 lines for $11, 231 lines for $16.50.
At 8 cpl based on a 65-character line with spaces, you earn $6.16 versus her $5.50. You tell me. Is this a good line rate? Looks like smoke and mirrors to me.
I used to make that $1000 a week but
that was in 1989 or 1990. Wish on.
$1.35 per 1000 characters. hiring process is too sm
daggone long. they SNAIL  MAIL you a tape to transcribe for testing. DUH!!!!!
I cannot believe anyone would make $1000.00 weekly after taxes.
That is very good pay
I am a slower but accurate producer, around 1000 sm
lines in 8 hours. Are there any companies out there that would value me as an employee? Seems like everyone wants 1200 lines or better or you are out the door. 
What is the definition of "Very nice?" $25, $50, $100, $1000?
