My account uses full names in almost all their reports
Of not only patients, but family members.
I think it probably depends on the dictators and type of reports.
Personally, I think it depends on the dictator, how familiar you are with the specialty, and if there are expansions/normals that can be used.
For argument sake, lets compare $1.15 per minute to 9 cents a line, if it takes someone 1 hour to transcribe 10 minutes of dictation.
If you have a slow dictator who reads the chart, changes their mind every other sentence, or uses terms/equipment that you have to constantly research, and at the end of the hour, you only have 100 lines typed, then you are ahead of the game. You earned $11.50 that hour.
10 minutes x $1.15 (typed in 1 hour) = $11.50 per hour.
100 lines x 9 cents per line (typed in 1 hour) = $9.00 per hour.
BUT, if you have a great dictator who knows what they want to say, are organized, normals or a great set of expansions are used, you never have to stop to look anything up, and in the end, you have typed 200 lines, that is a whole different story. You could have made $18.00 an hour.
10 minutes x $1.15 (typed in 1 hour) = $11.50 per hour.
200 lines x 9 cents per line (typed in 1 hour) = $18.00 per hour.
So in my opinion, unless you can talk to other MTs with the company doing the same work, there is no way to know in advance if you will be making more or less by being paid by the minute as opposed to by the line.
Please update us after you have worked for awhile and let us know how things are going. GOOD LUCK.
Doc is using software to do his own reports that puts the ® symbol after trade drug names and
I'm wondering if anyone is aware of a software program, maybe voice recognition, that does this? (I coudn't access the VR board to ask). This is one doctor in a practice that I transcribe for and I usually do his transcription for him, but the last time I logged into their computer to send them their files, there were reports in his file that I didn't transcribe that have this ® behind the trade names. I want to do a little research before talking to the practice. TIA
Basically, harder dictators and harder reports with a lot of formatting with tables, etc. SM
give you extra lines because of the time involved in doing those particular reports. Not so much you get paid more per line, you just get extra line credit. For example:
You have a 100 line report, but it is weighted because of a table that you have to input. Then you would maybe get credit for 130 lines for that report.
Not always. Tongue stumblers. New dictators. Speedy and lazy dictators.

?? Bad dictators are bad dictators regardless of their mother language.
wonder when people will just get over it and do what they can and move on.
The MR reports were being filed. Referring physicians/medical care providers reports were not.
This is a hospital radiology department with in-house MTs and a clerk who is in charge of the report distribution.
When people use last names for first names.
You can't tell what sex the person is, and it just sounds so pretentious and stupid.
Hunter, Tyler, Taylor, Cameron, Morgan, Parker, Porter.
Really soap-operaish and annoying.
The two sentence normal reports will balance out the 3 page reports.
I am Wendy too
yes to any of the ones listed below, PLUS
Any stuttering ESL! Is there anything worse? I had one Chinese doc who stuttered so badly it made me literally squirm in my chair to hear him. Then he would repeat himself and every other word was "uh and." It was excruciating!
there are so many a few listed below
deaconess.com
medterms.com
doctorspiller.com
mercksource.com
hundreds others, literally
See, it listed on there
the vehicle, the VIN and everything else in my possession, and it said whoever's got whatever, goes to whoever (you know what I mean!! :) THAT was what I signed. I got a DRAFT of the property agreement, but on the final document, nothing is specified, just whatever he's got is his and whatever I've got is mine (this was not something I signed...this is what I got after going to court). And maybe things vary in different states....I dunno, but I had to be present with my attorney, as did he, but neither he nor his laywer showed up. But I needed the FINAL COPY to say the VIN number and the specifics for the DMV. That's all.
I look at the website you listed.
There a ton of great jobs there but where do they list the jobs for MTs?
If only one printer is listed...
How can you change your default? Can you actually create a default that does not exist?
Since when are CTs listed under labs?
 This company is something else. Maybe they would have more work if the editing staff could make up their minds. For months I have been putting CT/PET scan results under "Imaging" with other places "Radiographs". Was told by someone in QA it goes under labs? Okay, my mother works for a mircobiology lab -- they test blood, urine and tissue samples. Never have I heard of someone getting their CT scan from the lab! The lab is not the source of radiographic data to my knowledge. Did I miss something here?????????
If none of the suggestions listed here
are of any help, here is an alternate.
Use the support form available from the "Support" link on the WinZip home page (http://www.winzip.com). The majority of the time they respond to all inquiries within 1 business day.
OP listed several things, not just this one; I'm sure you get that.

They are listed in BOS, as if that matters.

I work there as well and they have everything listed except 3 and 6.
Regarding #2, you do need to check with your supervisor to be sure extra work is needed for your accounts, as a courtesy to the people scheduled to work those hours...there needs to be enough work to go around.
Stedman's has crepitance listed.
Taber's only has crepitant and crepitation, not even crepitus. It's probably one of thos cases where doctors just made up a variation on a word that stuck. They don't care if it's right or not.
Start, programs and it is listed there.
I downloaded it last week. Found it there after an hour of confusion and then made a shortcut to my desktop.
Not listed with Better Business Bureau?
I have been offered a really good position with a company, however they have no web site and are not listed with the BBB. Should I be suspicous? They are a small company, but shouldn't they be listed voluntarily or something?
Not sure on this but I think you pay to be listed with the BBB - (join a member) so many probably j
the money to do so. Search the archives or Google them. Otherwise unless they are offering some outragous pay over such as over .12 cpl, then I would not worry about it and go for it.
flocculence is listed on onelook.com-sm
and has a definition of being flocculent which means having a fluffy character or appearance. I am by no means saying in my previous statment that this is a medical transcription standard but simply stating what I have found in my research of this. I also would like to know for sure if this is correct or not if anyone knows.
I have many, many doctors who frequently state, "There is no fluctuance on palpation of the wound." I have been typing fluctuance all this time and just ignoring spell check because it is used so frequently, so if this is wrong, any advice would be helpful. Thanks.
Did anyone see the CEP Shay Reddy job listed
They are asking for someone to proof/MT for $9.00 an hour. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
 Quick, how do I sign up?
I visited the website you listed and according
to that, it is not an insurance plan. It is a savings plan. You get a membership card that gets you savings on medical care at participating providers, not insurance.
It isn't that it is MY way. It is the correct way. It is the way that is listed in reference
Do you still feel that way? I'm afraid if I change my way of doing things to incorrect and improper ways that I may never get them back. I pride myself in being a great MT. I have three years of college to boot. It is almost like starting a bad habit to please your employer and I just don't know if I can do something the wrong/incorrect way.
Pled is listed in my dictionary
Webster's New World Dictionary
Actually, shoddy is not even listed in the 29th
edition Dorland's Medical Dictionary. Only shotty is listed and means " like shot; resembling the pellets used in shotgun cartridges." 
it is listed under fever, but the two words are
not interchangeable.
here's a link to the instructions that someone listed here.

A few of my favs are listed inside......sm
http:// www.upinregistry.com (very comprehensive listing of doctors in all states with ability to put in specialty if it is know to narrow the search)

(This is the old "Merck" book that lots of older MTs used to use and now available on line. Tons of info and search ability for terminology, drugs, etc)

Hope these help!

Towards the bottom there is a pull down to pick speciality, and chiropractor is one of them.
Let's do a poll, would you respond to help wanted ad that listed pay
more than you would an ad that did not list pay range? I am finding myself only responding to ads that have a pay range listed. Does anybody else do this? Maybe if those companies out there that needed MTs badly listed pay range then they would get more of a response!
check the equipment board--several listed there--nm

Does the manufacturer have a website? Maybe it'll be listed. Or try

Well, I can't answer to the iodine content. It's not listed
on the nutrition information, that I've noted anyway. However, I believe the 5 and 1 program with Medifast will help us maintain our weight loss once we hit maintenance. On the 5 and 1 it's all about portion control and being sure to eat a small portion every 2 or 3 hours, even on maintenance and beyond.
Of course, Medifast, Slimfast and any other somethingFast, let alone gastric bypass will not work if we don't learn from past dietary discretions.
I know I can never go back to eating the way I did to put the weight on. I have to develop that mindset myself.
I may fail, but I'd rather have failed using Medifast than undergoing serious surgery and have the same result, ya know?
I have never listed my typing speed. Never prevented

Perhaps you listed it that way in your autocorrect or other expander program
This belongs on Company board and is already listed there.
All of the current CMTs are listed on their website.
And they post it very quickly, mine was there within a week of taking the test. She will get busted very quickly.
Maybe you need it listed in a different port or as a different device? Any place to check the
