Flat Page Rate - Curious

Ladies and gents, I am hoping to find an employer that will pay a flat line rate for both editing of SR and transcription. Does anyone know of anyone that is doing that? This business of being paid 2 different line rates makes it impossible to forecast earnings and is causing a huge headache for me. I am thinking a flat in the 7 cpl to 8 cpl would be something I would consider. I cannot believe I am saying that - 10 years ago I was working in a great hospital job making 12 cpl. My, my, how ...

Trying to figure out what this would be comparable to line-wise. ...

Does anyone know if $2.00 per page is a good rate. ...

I have a question about Smartype and I will try to make it so it is understandable:) I bought Instant Text because I had to have some way of moving my Smartype over into Word 2007 (I had Word 2002). I have Instant Text turned off until I learn the new platform on the new company I am with. My problem is this, the Smartype line will not move with the page so when I get to the bottom of the page it covers up everything at the bottom and I can only manually move Smartype by scrolling back up ...

I am interviewing for a job that would be three days in office and two days at home. They requested my salary requirements, and would like to know what I would charge per page and half page for work done outside of the office. I have never had to worry about this before, and I am not sure what to say. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! I have been an MT for four years, two in a hospital and two working from home for different doctor's offices. ...

Then once they have you, watch out. Nuance lies. They lie to everyone they take over, i.e., the pretty great company and pretty great pay you were making before; kiss it goodbye. They lie. I just want to warn all of you considering your options. I wish I had been warned because I had no idea it would be this bad. I would have recorded my phone conversations and saved all the E-mails if I'd known. Be smarter than I was. I have been here 1-1/2 y ...

I am having extreme difficulty with a dictation. I have read some other post, but when I ask a transcription advisor at Allied, if in fact the doctor is saying "flat", I'm told no. Anyone have any idea what is being said? The sentence is " On digital rectal exam the prostate is (flat, flas, flaccid) without firmness or nodularity." Thanks for any help on this problem. ...

New QA's and they are "redoing" everything, including report formats. We've had to correct them on a few items and yet they storm ahead and are making work miserable. Doctors I've typed for now over 10 years and the new QA person acts as though I'm new and never heard his dictation and "here's how it should be from now on." WTH? Seriously? She changes words and puts in the wrong words, not even what was ever said, and then my pay hurts because of ...

I'm doing an ortho consult and the patient has a history of long-standing flat feet and he uses (Alterdix?) for that. I'm thinking it has to be some kind of shoe or device. Not a medication because he says he is not taking any medication. Also, just a side note - should it be a "long-standing history of flat feet" or is it correct the way it is "history of long-standing flat feet". Thanks, ...

Noticed in the MQ MT "rewards" plan (wow I can't even type that w/o laughing), that as of Feb 1 the pay will be a flat 4 cents per line for ASR. It does say this applies to new hires only; however, it says if hired prior to Feb 1 the editing rate will be "equal to the greater of 60% of the transcription base rate." What does "equal to or greater of 60%" mean exactly? Does that just mean 60% of your regular straight transcription rate like it is now?&nbs ...

I try not to even touch the monitor too much because of the plasma (or whatever it is inside there) but my flat screens could really use some cleaning. What do you use to clean yours? One of ours even has a smudge of nail polish on it where one of the girls pointed at something and and her nail polish rubbed off on the monitor. Help!!! ...

screen and I cant seem to get it off. I dont know what it is. It is a whitish film smeary looking. Any suggestions. ...

about the rate of pay. It is ridiculously low as it is and they said they were implementing higher pay. I have been here 3 months now and no changes. On top of that, they charge us to work for them!! I am going to tell them what I think of this. I have nothing to lose!!! ...

not sure if its all correct in this format or if there should be a period after the word area and then "on forward flexion he remains absolutely flat." Tia. ...

Their way of figuring it is so convoluted. I wonder if they keep us all low like that. ...

Can anyone tell me if line rate pay is comparable to getting paid by the audio minute? Is 0.50 or 1.00 normal? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks! ...

Would someone please tell me what the "piece rate" is on the check stub - and where does it show line rate? Thank you. ...

Code was callled briefly as she deteriorated. Her symptoms worsened as she was laid flat for initiation of s/l blunt ridge fusion, which was stopped quickly. Totally stumped. ...

Where is page 2???? ...

A new stoplight and a TYPO in name of platform! ...

What is a decent rate per page for interviews? How about $1 per page? ...

I am working in Word 2007. I am trying to make a template that has a different first page top margin. Can anyone give me some help? I have searched on MT Stars but can't seem to find anything. I have searched Microsoft help and nothing seems to be working that they suggest. So right now, each report I have to manually change the margins each time - getting VERY FRUSTRATED and wasting time. Thanks, Lorraine ...

how does this sound for legal transcription work? this is my first time being offered (and quoted) this type of work and pay. any ideas? i did test for them and the verbatim legal test file was quite easy and well over 1-1/2 pages in a short amount of time. <<<15 pages = $18.00 a page. All pages count. Usually less than 25 lines on a page>> any advice appreciated! ...

Can anyone tell me if there is software that will count pages for reports that are one continuous file with multiple pages? I have tried several, but they count the file as one page, rather than delineating each page separately. Thank you. ...

I need a recommendation for a page counting software program. I have a new client who wants to be billed by the page instead of by the line. I thanking you in advance for your recomendations. ...

I am with a company who works with legal documents. I just started. In order for me to go full-time I would need to type 75 pages a day. Does anyone have experience with this type of pay? And is it unreasonable? I'm just scared I won't live up. ...
