2-hour, 2-hours?

Hi:I am make incentive based on minutes, but I work on a system that lets me check how many lines and minutes I have typed in a day also. Just in case I have to get another job based on lines, I wanted to know what is the average amount of lines per hour or per 8 hour shift. Thanks for the advice in advance. MeL ...

I know none of us get paid by the hour, but I was just wondering if any of you have ever figured out just how much you earn per hour, based on a 40-hour week. I'm just trying to figure out where I fit in. I seem to be earning $16-18/hour give or take based on how my week goes. ...

Please don't discourage me from applying to Nuance. I just lost my job today and I need a job BAD! Plus, I've only got two semesters of college left before I graduate and move out of this field. Anyway, can someone tell me what 2nd shift hours are? And I'm curious to know when most of you work. Thanks ...

Somehow, I think we should be getting paid for the time we are waiting between jobs, especially since the wait isn't fitting into the 15-minute wait period. - Of course, waiting put under work availability. ...

...check it out for yourselves. Employees are not independent contractors. If you signed up for a straight 8 per day, your time sheet should reflect only the breaks you take off the clock. They are so messing with you folks! ...

My transcription job was always paid by the hour. I was laid off and they recently offered me a temp position with them making $12.00 an hour. I was also offered a positon that pays 7.5 and 3.5 cpl. The $12.00 is employee status for a small local company I worked for over 9 years. The other is an IC position. Do you think I would make more with the $12.00 an hour or the per line production rate? I have never done production by line work so I'm not sur ...

If it takes more, how many more? I realize this is an answer dependent on many factors, but I'm talking in general terms. Thank you. ...

Today I made $4.22 in one hour, doing one report; however, I am not entirely disgruntled. I only left one blank and have a sample for next time. There is a sense of accomplishment when you figure out the blanks after extensive researching online. ...

I need to find a job that averages more than $10 an hour. I have 20 years' experience in med trans and am a fast typist, but with the slow platforms and the constant "breakdowns" and being out of work, I am only averaging $10 an hour. Another problem is my line counts have dropped from 250 per hour to around 100 and cannot figure out why. Any ideas? Thanks ...

I've been doing MT forEVER. Today I pushed the envelope as hard as I could and I transcribed 734 lines in one hour. I was totally "on," dictators were great, and being in the zone helps. I doubt I will ever replicate it, my hands are still trembly! LOL! But I wanted to see what I could do. Nice to still get some firsts after a lifetime in this field and firsts that are positives, not negatives! ...

So I have been working for a few months now but it is so hard to increase my line count. First of all quality comes before quantity, but I also have so many different physicians that it seems impossible to increase my line count. I also have a lot of ESL docs, but I do prefer them over a doc who mumbles. Right now I am making about 3-4 bucks an hour. It stinks. Would you work for that amount?? ...

I don't know why I picked $15 an hour for this little experiment, but for some reason it strikes me that across the board that's about what a lot of MTs are averaging these days. Could be a bit more, a bit less, but I had to pick a number. The experiment: 1. Identify other jobs paying similar rates. 2. Select some that generally come close to what I might call the "ambience" of MT as it now exists. I think I've found it, and here is where I wish with al ...

resplendent with tables and dictated through a tin can and string by a smug cardiologist who kept changing his mind. Took me over an hour to do. Checked the line count and I made $5.74. Really? And I'm supposed to be grateful I have a job. Can I draw unemployment to make up to minimum wage on that hour? ...

I have 25 years of MT experience. With the decline of the MT profession, I applied for a data entry position at $12.00 an hour. However, this company has a transcription department and has me doing transcription now, but they are still paying me $12.00 an hour. Any thoughts? ...

I know some of you are struggling to make minimum wage. I have 32 years of teaching hospital experience. I have had my own accounts. I have had my own service. And now after 32 years the most I can make, typing has hard and as fast as I can, is $15 an hour. If I were 5 years older, I could retire (not that I can afford to retire, but I would get almost as much in Social Security as I get now working).I've made the big bucks. I have had many lucrative year ...

This is what I made yesterday. It seems to depend on the day. I had so many reports that had big chunks of sentences missing. Of course, as always, all medicine lists, the numbers were wrong, a few drugs spelled wrong. Vital signs wrong. Lab counts wrong. Don't you love when a new sentence starts with a number and this happens. 1. Numbering is such a huge issue still for voice rec. I know I will get a nasty email today reminding me that days like yesterday will cause MUP that j ...

Somebody somewhere got paid big bucks to devise some cockamamie formula for what they think we should achieve, lines per hour, etc, which doesn't work, does it, because every account is different, some weighted heavily toward editing and others toward transcription, some heavy ESL, others not. There are too many variables to put us all under one roof production-wise. If they wanted to simplify, why not pay us by the hour with an additonal ...

What do you people think about a $55/ audio hour rate for transcribing? Faxing individual notes to various MDs and uploading whole file and then individual reports to pt record to server included. Is that enough for all that work? Thanks ...

I only made 6.60 an hour on my second day of work. I was used to getting paid by the hour. Did anyone else start off like this and get better? How long will it take? ...

I am now doing 140 lines per hour. Is that okay? ...

With decades of experience as an MT, I'm just now getting into VR. I'd like to know, if you would please care to share, just how many lines per hour you are able to get with VR. I know this varies from person to person and platform to platform, but please, help me out with this! I'm terrified I'm going to go broke doing this! Thanks in advance. ...

I don't have much to compare to, as this is the only company I've worked for as an editor. I wanted to get an idea of the different platforms we each use and our lines per hour. Talking only about editing and not straight typing, what do you average lph and what platform do you use? Thank you! ...

I'm looking at a job that pays 50-55 dollars per recorded hour of audio. This is interview or straight dictation transcription. Does this sound okay? I'm thinking if it takes me 2 hours to transcribe an hour, that wouldn't be such a bad deal. I'm just not sure how long it would take me. I do transcribe very fast...shortcuts are used for medical but can implement for this type of transcription as well. Just not sure that the pay is reasonabl ...

Are there companies that pay to do QA hourly? If so where are they and who? I do QA now and work 15 hours a day for less than $100 ...

Trying to get an idea of how much I should be aiming for (working on building my speed). How many lines per hour do you average? (No VR or anything like that...just normal transcription). Thanks!! ...

I'm working as an IC MT right now and paid by the line, but was offered a QA position with the same company at $12 an hour. Is this about what the going rate for QA is? ...

Just out of curiosity - figure out what you make per hour doing VR. I am looking for like $15/hr or whatever. Then put that into the context of how much you make per hour doing straight transcription. I don't want your name, your company or anything about you personally. I am just curious to compare what people make doing VR paid per line translated into how much that is per hour. Thanks for any help. ...

I am two months into my first MT position. I get to work at home, which is a wonderful thing for me because my husband is ill. However, I am earning about $4 per hour because I am so slow. I am accurate, but slow. Is there a money curve where I should eventually get fast enough to at least make it to minimum wage? I'm paid 5 cpl so I knew my pay wouldn't be big, but $4 an hour seems very sad to me because I have a year of training and going down to the school s ...

2-hour, 2-hours? - Arkaidy

YW. I can't think of an example when the plural - sm
