I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel. I think she's really smart and a good player. I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner. I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
I do over 3000 per day but I know others
a lady I used to work with that could do this, before VR, straight typing so it is possible. Mine is with combination VR and straight though not just straight. The only thing is, the person who typed this much wound up not being able to transcribe, hands went out. I also worked with another lady who I think probably did well over 3500 a day so I do think possible. Wish we all could do that much.
3000
Been there, quality is key, BS is more like it. Go slow and quality pays.
I do about 3000 per day but that is
keeping my foot on the pedal as fast as the dictation will go. I do VR and very little straight and I do not really see how you can get to 4000 a day. I have worked at this for years and years and know the dictators (17 years with this place) like the back of my hand but have never gotten to 4000. I would doubt that also.
Of course 3000/8hr. is possible, with 3-page
templates and fill-in-the-blanks, word expanders, and same docs over and over. Oh, and not getting the docs on a daily basis who finish a sentence, go back and correct it 5 times to the point you have no clue what he/she is trying to say. In any case, good with the bad, I still average 200 lph. Sometimes it's not how good or fast YOU are, but how good or bad they are at dictating.
3000 lines a day
I have been a MT for 35 years...CMT for much of that..an IMT, since the 70s, with my own business...and a FAST transcriptionist...but it is not possible to type 3000 lines a day. You can and I have done it - but you will kill yourself. Today, more and more keystroke/characters are being taken away from us and in my opnion you would have to TYPE YOUR BRAINS OUT and still would not make it. After two or three days at that pace you will be ready to blow yourself up! I am only max-productive six hours a day, after that it is down-hill..I slow and my quality suffers. Don't try to type 3000 lines a day, find an account that will pay you well instead - they are out there.
3000 lines per day??
On voice recognition pay that's not much money (about $12 an hour) especially for those of us who don't have the luxury of husbands helping bring home the bacon!
3000 lines
Thanks everyone for your input. Hopefully I'll have an easy account and will be able to get a lot of lines once I get used to the account.
3000 lines a day with VR?
Does anyone want to share their line counts when using Escription VR? At 4 cpl a line I would have to do over 3000 lines a day (8 hours mind you) to even begin to make what i did before. Is this possible?? I just don't see how......
Microsoft wireless 3000
I've been looking. I'm working on one now. I LOVE the touch and it's VERY quiet. I hate clacky. I've worked on ones that I couldn't hear the dictation for the clacking; had to keep stopping and starting, listening while not typing. ack! anyway, I LOVE the touch and non-sound of this but it isn't split, and I'm having a hard time with that. I'm gonna keep looking

There's a 4000 too, with a hump in the middle. It's not quite as quiet and the touch isn't quite as easy.
Making 3000 Lines Per Day?
Is it really possible to make 3000 lines per day? If so, how is that possible? I am a very fast transcriptionist, and I use shortcuts to the max;I cannot fathom how 3000 lines in 8 hours is possible. Is there a WAV-to-text conversion program out there that I am missing out on, or what? What is the key to this level of production? I can't figure it out, and it is driving me bonkers.
3000 VR and straight combined
with just straight 2000 per day and that was different accts but like the person below, using Expanders and loads of shorthand, cannot type without it. Just keep your mind on wanting a certain amount, that is my deal.
Check with your CPA--a $3000 tax credit may apply!
We're looking into this as well. Even if we don't go with the hybrid, a purchase of a new, more fuel-efficient auto may result in a $3000 tax credit (versus a reduction, so a wonderful thing) for the 2006 tax year!
3000 lines - 6 hours- VR editing. nm

2500-3000 lines daily. sm
I found my comfort zone and awesome account, finally. After 25 years in the MT business, I can honestly say, I am happy doing my job! I have an awesome account, wonderful people to work for, and an excellent line rate.
I have not set hours, no special quota to meet - just get the reports done with utmost quality, keep them in turnaround time and keep the docs happy!
Sometimes, I don't even check my line count. I just work until my account is caught up.
There are accounts/doctors/hospitals out there who will appreciate you, your knowledge and work ethic, who will treat you with the respect you so deserve!
I happened to find one - all MTs can do the same; it just takes a little effort. Believe me, I have been around the block in this profession, working for smaller MTSOs, large nationals, and having my own accounts. It was not easy, but I finally have found "paradise" in the MT profession!
Love it, get at least 3000 lines per shift
and have straight mixed in with it. The salary is low but I can get anywhere from 18-20 dollars an hour or over and so maybe you are not putting forth your best effort? Might also depend on the platform you use. Some better than others.
Can YOU really type 3000 lines an hour?!
That right there is an incredible feat of fingerin'!
Meditech didn't work with my particular short cut program and the lag time was absolutely unbearable, not to mention all the demographic screens to wade through before getting to actually type the report. I absolutely hate using "F" keys, which leads to more finger fatigue, and the Meditech I used was full of them. Honestly though, I can't remember if it was "Magic" or the other version of Meditech, as it's been at least a couple of years now.
I do know, however, that I was able to produce 1500/lines per 8-hour day as a matter of course with one word-based program and with Meditech, it dropped down into the 900 range. It was financially and mentally devastating for me, but again, my experience.
Question about 3000 lines and your hands.
Do they hurt? Maybe I am doing something wrong, but when I sit in my chair for that long and type my hands rebel. Do you do 3000 in 8 hours or how does that work exactly? I'm impressed. I know people will probably come on here now and flame me and say that they do 50,000 lines a day and their hands never hurt... whatever. LOL I am totally impressed by you MTs that do so well. Admittedly, I am not the fastest gun in the rack, but I do my part. I say kudos to ALL of you that can type that much every single day and not let it get to you. I would crawl out of my skin I think!
rephrasing my question about 3000 lines per day (sm)
What I really like to know is if it's possible to type that many lines on a CONSISTENT basis everyday and approximately how many hours it takes. I'm trying to calculate how many lines a pay period I need to make to pay my bills.
Thanks so much
It's taco night! (again.....) We had taco pizza last night, southwestern chicken soup before th
Maybe I'll just have a salad.
Depends -- usually 2500-3000 lines per week - sm
though where I work does not have a minimum, but they are considering changing that shortly. Still won't be a firm # as they go by minutes, but the min. will be 60 minutes a day which will be approx 500-600 lines a day.
all work types - 3000 lines a day @ 12 cpl 65 characters
18 cpl transcribed line - private hospital account. These are the only specifics I am willing to give.
Do not e-mail me and ask where or who - I will not reply!
I understand companies are paying 4 & 8 cpl edit/transcribed. I do not work for a company. I caught a hospital account using the platform at the right time and signed on quickly as an IC.
Hope this helps.
1700 during the week, 2500-3000 on weekends
:-)
Even if you could do 3000 a day, good luck finding a company

QA, $3000/mo hourly so get some overtime too, bennies paid, no complaints. nm

I have a friend who consistently does over 3000 lines in 8 hours on the basic four, so yes it is pos

Average 3000-4000 minutes and no questions asked!
I have used the service for about four years. Like I said in my post above in the previous post, be sure to have a very good internet connection or expect to have problems. If you have a laggy internet, your phone will not respond either.
That is a lot of work/lines for 2 people. I do 3000 lines per day sm
if you times that by 30 days that only comes to 90K lines a month, that is working 7 days a week including weekends. I don't think 2 people can handle that.
65 at night - 70 in day

We had that last night.
I was just bored today since I'm not working. I like cooking different foods as a hobby. LOL
yes, I got it last night...sm
sure do wish they'd make up their minds. When I first started on DQS, from Cottage, I got "yelled" at about NOT putting 2 spaces, now I'm used to 2 spaces, and they go and change it again. Oh, well. Guess I'll get read to get "yelled" at again! 
About last night...

This was a great article. I think she hit the naile on the head in her assessment of each one of them.
Tks for posting the link.
Just on TV last night sm
I'm in California and DPSS Department of Social Service did this exact same thing and did not want to shred so out in open to recycle, 93,000 people to be notified. Shameful disregard, no wonder so muc IF theft. The TV station esposed this happening.
AI - CNN Last night
They had something on CNN last night where they had four people talking about Chris being voted off. One of them was an AI contestant from last year and she wasn't pulling any punches which was nice to see. She told it like it is. She didn't side step any questions like some people. She said Katharine should have gotten voted off instead of Chris and she and all the others said that Katharine would win, not because she was the most talented, but because she was the most marketable. One reporter said Chris got voted off because he was creepy! Of course, it was a man.
Get a PT job at night, then if you like it and - sm
they will let you got FT, then go for it. Never quit a job before you have another in the bag.
CSI NY last night... anyone see it?
So, on CSI NY last night, MAC sure did a good job using a shoestring to tie up that agents artery, didnt he? Even if he WAS in the service, I was impressed. Although, he's no Grissim. Speaking of which... CANT WAIT FOR TONIGHT! http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/ if you click here: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/producer_picks/ you can watch the producer's favorite episodes for free on your computer. :D
Yes, I saw this last night
My husband is one of those Vets that could potentially have his identity stolen. :( Very concerning!
Other night job
I dance at the local "Dancing Bare"and am known as the cellulite Grandma.
up all night?
Has anyone ever pulled an all-nighter and typed through the night after your shift during the day? Please tell me how you did it! A strong pot of coffee is a given and some carbs are probably a given.
Also, those of you who work the midnight shift, do you have any tips for staying alert when the house is quiet and the neighborhood is fast asleep?
Thanks in advance!
up all night
This will really mess with your circadian rhythm and make you crazy. No kidding. That is why they outsource now to India (among other things) because when we sleep, they are having their morning coffee and are ready for their day.
up all night
I've been on nights for over 20 years. I suggest keeping yourself well-hydrated - tea, whatever - and every 1-1/2 hour or 2, get up and do a tiny bit of QUIET exercise - walk door to door, make some jello for tomorrow, sort a laundry basket, etc. Amazing what you can get done in those 5 minutes and it boosts productivity. It may take me a week, but I've cleaned out cupboards, etc. a half-shelf at a time and I've stayed awake.
Had one last night
I'm typing a chest/abdomen/pelvis for a MALE john doe. The resident mentions a missing uterus. Then he makes a big deal of making me go back and change that to a "very small" uterus. Wonder what it really was?
What Night Owl said! :)
Bah, humbug! Greedy, lying jerks.

Average Joe Won Last Night!
