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 ...

Hello all, I am just wondering if all of you can tell me what you feel is pretty 'typical' for a line count per day.

I am sure I will be slow at first, so I want to have some idea of where I am at. Thanks!! ...

only got 37 lines from it. This nutter dictating kept putting me on hold (with the worst music) every section of the report so he could look it up in the patient's chart! I hate it when they do that stuff! There would be no way I would go to this guy as a patient. Anyone who is that unorganized is not going to operate on me! Breathing deeply now, rant over. ...
