Is anybody able to make FT hours/lines with AP lately? nm

What do you do when you have the required hours but are short lines? I got an email that I need to "make plans to have my shortage made up." The only problem is that I'm up to date with my hours for the pay period so far. The other problem is that I have plans Saturday night and Sunday (both being my scheduled time off) that don't include TransTech. It's getting harder and harder to defend this company when they can't hold up their end of the agreement and continually ...

? Have had a few days (4) to be exact where I did not meet the 150 lines per hour. The other days I had a minimum of 160 lines per hour but I guess that does not count. Anyway can anyone tell me if I drop to 120 lines an hour what kind of bene's I have? ...

Hello. I have been doing transcription at home for 15 years. I am looking for new employment opportunities. I have always been paid hourly, but now it seems everyone is paying by line. Could someone please tell me if I type 7000 lines a week, how many hours is that? Thank you. ...

Could someone please tell me the formula for converting lines typed to pay per hour? I have forgotten how to do it...thanks for the info. ...

Does anyone on here know of a company other than formerly known as Intellitype, now Castlepoint Management, who lets their MTs sign up for how many lines they will be transcribing each day other than a set schedule with set hours so you are not sitting there with no work and passing time. ...

There was a post last week on Nuance pay discrepancies. I had a 3 hour discrepancy, didn't think too much of it. I thought maybe I made a mistake. This time it is a 5 hour discrepancy. I know I didn't make a 5 hour mistake on my time punches. My lines are not what they should be either. I am about to find another job. I don't make enough as it is without being shorted. Did anyone else notice this with this last pay period? ...

Is anyone else having trouble achieving their daily goal since all the work has been pooled together here at Nuance? It takes me hours longer to get what I used to get. ...

With the new teamworks lockout/lockdown, how does one make up missed NJA hours when work eventually comes? If we are not scheduled to work, even though we send an NJA mail to support, we are not allowed to log in. Since I am new to Medquist, any help is greatly appreciated. ...

One of the reasons I got in the business in the first place was to make my own schedule. I thought that one of the main rights of an IC is you are able to set your own hours. Why does this not seem to apply to medical transcription??? ...

It is a struggle to make any lines and I bet I am not the only one. The higher ups simply do not care. ...

What are your computer specs? DH brought up a good question tonight. I have recently moved from my old faithful with 80 MB hard drive with 512 memory to 380 GB hard drive with 3 MB memory. i have had nothing but problems with Escription and not making my lines. I can't just use the shortcut keys and I can't use my expander. DH stated maybe I don't have what I need in the computer to make things work correctly (this coming from someone who never touched one in his life!).&nbs ...

Here lately it seems like I am doing more work, and getting less lines. Anyone else having the same problem? ...

I have been put on 3 new accounts this week and I have been having a hell of a time making any lines at all this week. Now, I hardly get any work from my old account. Any suggestions on what I can do to improve my line count? ...

... Because you've already put in your 40 hours. It is illegal to change your timesheets so they don't have to pay overtime. If they can't give you sufficient work and keep hiring people who take your work away from you, find a company that will give you enough work. Save the emails and send them to the department of labor. ...

I haven't made by 80 hours per pay in quite a long time (almost a year). I sure there are some of you out there, too. They must not mind paying their portion of my benefits from health insurance to life insurance, STD, an on. What is up with that? I have never had a call saying I have to make my hours up or get called on the carpet for only sometimes putting in 50 hours or less. I just don't get it! ...

MT/ME positions at Medquist? ...

Six months ago with the Q, I could easily have my 800 or so in 5-6 hours and generally typed over 1,000 a day. Now, I'm finding I'm struggling to make my 800 at the end of shift, even though I'm doing all the same things, typing even faster, etc. Is anyone else having this issue? I have a huge WE dictionary and all the other little tips and tricks and it's never been an issue before. Thanks in advance! ...

I'm sick of the games these cheapskate companies play. ...

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 ...

Does anybody know which column companies look at to decide if you are meeting the minimum 250 requirement in Escription? When I look at the metrics there are 2 columns...median lines per hour and average lines per hour. ...

if you make 4 cents per line at 1000 lines a day, they really calculate it at 500 lines per day x 4 cents, making it really 2 cents per line for the full 1000. I heard this, and I am really interested in knowing if it is true. ...

My main account was a good one, and the lines were very good, mostly ER work. I have been on this account for over a year and a half now. We recently received an e-mail stating that Nuance had discovered that the line count was charging incorrectly, as instituted by them, and they had been crediting us with MORE lines than we were actually doing and overcharging the client. Now get this, they informed us that they would not make US pay it back, for their mistake, but that our new lines would re ...

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! ...

Just wondering if the TT MTs would like share ... how many lines do you average during the day/week? I'm doing about 9,000 to 10,000 a week and wonder if I should be pushing myself more. How much of your count is VR? I do probably 15% traditional and 85% VR but that, of course, varies week to week. ...

Which do you use - custom lines - 65 character lines with spaces or standard lines - seems like so much more for standard lines???? Cathy ...

I am having a discrepancy issue with lines....wondered if MS Word and Medquist use a different number of characters per line. Thanks.... ...

How many lines do you average per day - VR and traditional? I know it's been VERY slow lately, but when things are going well, how many lines do you normally get? I'm trying to figure out where the average numbers are. For me, I do about 350 trad and about 1400 VR in 8 hours. Well, my timesheet says 8 hours, but my clock says that number MAY(!) be a little higher. Again, these are numbers I pull when things are going well and I'm not waiting for work to download. I'v ...
