Clarification: 1200 lpd x 5 days/week...
1200 lpd x 5 days/week =
MQ: $0 incentive
Spheris: $24 incentive/week
Typically this week is a slow week in lots of places
because it is a big vacation week. Typically things slow dow a bit in the summer too because people are putting off elective surgery, but at the same time lots of people going on vacation so it should balance out.
I think u can with some restrictions
I would check that .. I believe that remote workers can take certain things off but somehow it comes to mind that there is a mileage issue .. have to be x # of miles from the company. Call your tax preparer or the IRS itslef.
Restrictions
You can get your full retirement at 66 but they still restrict what you can earn until you are age 70. After that, you can make as much as you want without penalty. Who wants to work when they are 80 years old??? lol
VoIP plans are the only ones without restrictions

Is there engineer week? Astronaut week? Veterinarian week?

have you interviewed them?
I always have a ton of questions, and talk with the recruiter at great length about what I am looking for and what they are offering. That might help hone it down.
I interviewed with them and turned them down
but can't remember all the details. I think they offered 10 cpl for IC and 11 cpl for lines over 12,000 per pay period. You have to "punch the clock" , which I just won't do. Sorry I don't remember other details.
So you've interviewed MOST of them?....LOL
Saw a program on CNN or one of those stations, and it was a call center in India filled with hundreds of well-dressed professional-looking MTs and they said: *average age 27 with a business degree* compared to "average age 49 in the US with no degree"....
Seeing hundreds, and it was a 2005/2006 show, - I believe that show. You may have interviewed a few dozen Indian MTs IF YOU are in the US but not MOST Indian MTs. *S*
Have a nice day!
I interviewed for a job today
Most of it went well. They pay the same cpl as most the other companies I have looked into. They pay for headers if you have to type them in yourself, which is better than what I got elsewhere. The scary part is that all they pay for is the training phone call and then straight production, they really don't give you time to lean the account to build up speed and make money. I asked the interviewer if the account they were putting me on was busy all the time. She said yes. I asked her if it was saturated with ESLs. She said, "it is out of Texas, What do you think?"
Those were the only 2 red flags I saw was the straight production after the 2-hour phone call and I might be stuck on an account that is saturated with ESLs. I did like the fact though that I will be using eScription instead of ExText. I never used eScription before, I have always used ExText so I am excited about learning something new. I do need health insurance and theirs was pretty inexpensive. I am not sure what to think. Am I going to be in over my head?
I applied to 2 more places and have not heard from any of them yet. I did hear from one Friday and they said I needed to fill out another application. I filled one out online and they e-mailed me to fill out another one.
I don't know anything about transolutions, interviewed, tested, and
offered position with Cymed. The pay is average, lots of ESL, offered 0.5 cpl more if I do more than 1800 lines a day, which I do occasionally, but not often enough that I would have a bunch of extra $$ each pay period. The person I interviewed with was an HR person and hadn't the first clue about transcription, so her answers weren't very good to questions. I did specifically ask if the offshore and she reluctantly said they do. I know they offshore to the Phillipines and probably India, and they are support of the move to offshore to Trinidad. I was offered 8 cpl and have 20 years' acute care experience. I was told there were lots or opportunities to earn big $$ in bonus money, but I'm not looking to be chained to my chair another 4 hours a day. My main decision for declining the position was the offshoring.

I interviewed for an in-house pathology MT - sm
position a few years ago. What they did was a transcription typing test, so I had actual dictation and of course they timed me. I did okay there I think without any errors I was aware of but speed wise I tend to type a lot slower when being tested as I just freak at typing tests. Then they interviewed me, and I feel so dumbb at interviews, 2 people at once, totally dumbb questions for the most part with nothing to do with transcription. I thought I did well but did not get called back. They gave me a full tour of the facilities, etc, the MT office, the lab, etc. Let me "interview" the MTs there too. It was quite interesting.
well, I interviewed for an in-house job Monday
She said by today, Friday, she would let me know if I got the job. She told me I was high on the list of being hired, but she was still interviewing. It is already nearly noon and I have not heard a word. I looked at the job board and the ad for an MT is gone. Is that bad news for me?
BBQ, slaw, cornbread, ham, casseroles, lots of veggies, chicken pastry, lots of desserts!! BIG fami

Lots of inexpensive decorations at Big Lots. Had a party last year.

Lord forgive me for saying this, but at the start of this, they interviewed her roommates on CNN, I
think. Maybe Fox. At any rate, the girls were rather "smug" about it all, said that Natalee was quite taken with this Dutch kid and had basically "dumped" her friends the last 2 days to hang all over this guy. When they were asked what was "so special" about him, they said that Natalee was quite flattered that he was paying attention to her, as he was considered the "#1 Catch On the Island"...So, that certainly explains why her friends weren't "covering her back". She had ditched them more or less to be with Romeo. Happened to me a lot in the "old bar hopping days" with my girlfriends. One would hook up with some total stranger, and just dump the rest of us "singles" for the night. Luckily, they all lived, though we did have a scary encounter now and again, this being in Southern Florida.
I'm not happy with my current position, but I've interviewed
tested and me offered positions with at least 12 other companies and none of them have anything better to offer, all less money, all set schedules, etc. Read the job boards and see what is out there and if you want to test the waters take on a PT IC position - of you can test and interview with multiple companies without making a committment.
I read the story and they interviewed people who work in the
Luis Vuitton store. They said they had 3-4 of the debit cards used just that day. Other high end stores were reporting they were being used in there as well. One guy on tv was interviewed and said he was unemployed yet he was going to buy a car. That means he'll probably have no insurance, probably no license. Every single taxpayer is paying for these unemployed, young "disabled" people with a bunch of kids who have chronic back pain or <insert whatever disorder here> to go shopping and not for needed things like food and diapers.
I interviewed to work in a pharmacy ... haven't heard yet, but -- sm
the company will send their pharmacy clerks to classes and pay for pharmacy tech certification, even though it is not required in New York state. Waiting to hear back from them this week.
LOTS and LOTS of video tapes and DVDs.

Lowest runs $900 week, highest $1400 week (sm)
Get paid 12 CPL. Been doing transcription for about 12 years.
1200 lpd for me nm

I have an SX 1200 APC www.apc.com
Our power frequently goes off briefly when there's a storm nearby, even if it isn't storming here. The backup has been really helpful.
most MTs I know do about 1000-1200 lpd

It took me 2 weeks to get to 1200.

1200 lines per day.

It ought to be nice at $300-1200 a night....sm
We just went to Disney for vacation for a week and stayed at one of the All American resorts there - and the price package was 1/3 of the Polynesian.
typically 1000-1200 /d nm

What would you make in incentive doing 1200 lpd?
With MQ's new plan in January: $0 incentive on 1200 lines/day.
Spheris: 1200 lines a day = $24 a week incentive.
What about where YOU work?!!
One oil exec made $1200 PER SECOND during Jun/Jul/Aug!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That may be the AMERICAN way, but I'm steaming when there are people out there who can't get medicine, have no place to live, when America is paying disabled people pennies to live on in a month, and children don't have decent schools, teachers, or buildings to stay in.
And I'm not finished here!
The /act/ put on by our congressmen and women yesterday turned my stomach. It was totally a PRODUCTION.........but I hope they don't think they fooled anybody. Why did they even bother wasting my time and theirs.
The oil companies didn't even get a slap on the wrist.
I'm sick of off shore companies getting a safe haven to do their work and oil companies being allowed to suck what little dollars we have left in our billfolds OUT......while they are making $1200 A SECOND!!!!!! THAT IS PER SECOND people!. That is obscene. WE ARE AT WAR HERE......we are all making concessions......and our children are getting killed over there.
When is the insanity AGAINST the American worker going to end?
My minimum is around 1200/day which isn't that hard to get. -nm

Mine is 1200 too, and i think its hard.
i usually just barely get it by 6 hours... how long does it take you?
Need to type 1200 lines on new
I just started new job about a week ago. I need to type 1200 lines/ day to reach my income goal. How long does it usually take to reach this amount of lines? I can't seem to find a comfortable routine. I want to work nights but no luck with that. I am straining too much to see the work because the eyes are just too tired by the end of the day and day time is full of interruptions. Thought about splitting it up with 4 hours in the day and 4 hours at night. Anyone heard of doing this? Any other suggestions? I have an Expander but I haven't put all of the shortcuts in yet.
thanks for input.
$130/month ... $30 of it is cable ... 1200 sf
I hate to spend money on utilities, lol.
between 1000 and 1200/day in 5 hours. VR and
straight typing. Depends on work type and account. 
well, some newbies are getting 5-6 cpl; so, 1200 lines day = $16,000

Hours per 1200 lines
Just want to get some feedback on how long it takes to do 1200 lines. I did clinic notes and was an IC for four years and work on and off throughout the day, so I really never had to work straight through the day to produce. I am now going to do acute care-hospital work minus lab and radiology reports. I have about four years experience.
Thanks,
I can do approximately 1200-1300 per day...
When I am in the "zone" I can get 1400-1500.
I usually average 1200 in 6 hours. But
I end up surfing the net and take a bathroom break every 2 hours, so it ends up being around 1K. I should be doing better, but some days are so boring on I am here way too much, when I should be typing.
1200 is the minimum at most places for
full-time. Personally I transcribe anywhere from 1700 to 2000 lines in an 8-hour day.
Diff between 1200 lines/day with MQ vs Spheris:
If you type 1200 lines a day for 5 days of the week with each company, here is the incentive difference:
MQ: Incentive would be $0.
S: Incentive would be $24.
That is for the entire week.
I think the average is 1200 lpd for full time

1200 to 1600 on good days (nm)

How long does it take you to type 1200 lines?
On a normal good day it takes me about 5 hours, somedays I just can't stay focused so it takes longer. I'm still debating about getting an Expander so just wanted to see how long it took people on average.
I worked 2 hrs 35 last Saturday and got my 1200 for the 8-hour day sm
Had the same epiphany. End result? I have worked 72 the past 2 weeks (not quite 80, not till tomorrow). How much money have I made? $2000 at 8.5 cpl SO FAR, I have to work tomorrow.
Where I work requires average of 1200
lines per day for a 2-week period.
Also applied 2 months ago. Think it was 8 cpl for 1200 lpd, going up in 1/4-cent increments, and U

Most expect 1200 lines a day, but I think I've seen 1100.
How hard that is depends mostly on work availability and how good the platform is.
1200 lines should be a given. You could be making superb money!

Our department does 1200+ reports a day. They average 11 lines. nm
This is for 2-3 line normal chests to MRIs. They look longer, but if you take 65 characters with spaces, you will be surpised. Here's an example:
CHEST:
INDICATION: Chest pain.
FINDINGS: Heart size within normal limits. Lungs are clear.
IMPRESSION: Normal chest.
This is 116 characters with spaces, which is 3 lines (if you round up - actually 2.55 lines). If by the line, you would make $0.30.
Something to think about.
Do the same with an MRI of the knee. Copy and paste it into word and count it. A very long one I had was only 15 lines.
