Line Count-Ambulatory-InScribe - nothappy
Posted: Dec 12, 2014
Does anyone actually make their line count on the above? The software is horrible. Each patient is like 10 to 15 lines on average. You would have to do 130 patients a day transcribing, is that possible? And the speech rec, OMG that is horrible to try to make lines with. And, they are taking 50 lines per 1000 away because it is an easy platform. Yes, I checked with the Department of Labor and they can get away with it. Crap, I have to wait 5 seconds when I pick a document type to start transcribing, and 8 seconds to check the document with the template to be sure spacing is correct? And on my first day I get yelled at for not making my line count and having to be paid minimum wage? Thank you Nuance for taking over my hospital!!! Not too happy, I had a nice job when I was employed by the hospital making $25 an hour with excellent benefits. Thanks for listening.
I work on EMDAT for another company and the lines are usually pretty good. - Surprised to hear that you are only...
[ In Reply To ..]getting 10 to 15 lines per report. I wondered if that's something Nuance is doing? I have only ever heard of radiology lines being that low and that's because they are typically short reports. I am sorry for you, Nuance is does not sound like a good place at all. Hopefully it will get better or you will find something else.
I don't know what you are talking about...Inscribe - is a great platform..
[ In Reply To ..]Seriously...I think we are talking apples and oranges here. I am on Inscribe straight typing, and I think it is the greatest platform ever. Have never been on Speech Wreck with them and that MAY be a mess. Inscribe has a great line counting program and I have even counted manually and it is very accurate. No problems here and I have been in Inscribe for several years. It must be something else besides the platform.

VR Line Count - What Kind Of Line Production Should I Shoot For

I was just hired on with a company to do strictly VR. I am only going to be working part time so about 4 hours a day.

Is this correct? I type 70,000 characters a day. I am paid by the 65 character line so I would divide 70,000 by 65 to get 1076, then multiple that by pay per line, say $.10 and get $107. If this is not correct then what is the formula? And what is the average number of lines per day? Thanks so much for the info. ...

Line Count...
Sep 19, 2012
I have been working for this company for about 18 month and so far so good. It was even bought out by a bigger company and everything stayed the same with no problems. They don't bother me, I do my work and everything is fine. About 6 months ago my line count started going way down and I really just chalked it up to not being able to concentrate as much because my baby started walking and basically making it impossible for me to work. For the past week my line count has about doubled. ...

Need Line Count Help
May 04, 2013
I have been told that I need to increase my LPH. So last night I kept track of the lines of each document done by using MS Word. But later when I compared it to Nuance's line tracker (ichart) it only listed half the lines that MS Word listed. How can this be? I realized that Word my count blank lines, but how can there possibly be that much difference? I felt like I really kicked butt last night, but then to look at LPH with Nuance's ichart I felt cheated/ ...

Receiving Only A % Of Line Count??
Dec 04, 2009
Is it typical to only receive a percentage of your edited lines because "editing is faster and better" than straight transcription? I am new to VR, but this seems odd to me.
