typing/editing. Not unobtainable, but there was, at least in my experience, never enough work. I quit awhile ago and wouldn't refer anyone to them unless I didn't like them.

That's not the case anymore, it's 186 lph average now. - nm

186 lph, no weighted lines between typing and editing anymore. - just all lumped together.

line count requirements - moose

[ In Reply To ..]
The line count at Nuance is a combined 186 lph. They take how many lines you type in a week, then divide that by your total clocked-in hours. Essentially that breaks down to needing to type over 1400 lines per day and over 7400 per week. So if you are clocked in, you better make sure you are typing or it really screws up your line counts. They track "system time" versus your "clock time" which never matches, and you supposedly get 2 paid 15 minute breaks, but yet that counts against your productivity, so to ensure you get a break, AND maintain your productivity you can clock out for your breaks, but then you have to make up that time so you have 8 hours in a day - so essentially you don't get "paid" breaks, it's a joke. They say that new grads get 6 months to hit those line counts, but they will write you up w/in 90 days with threat of termination if you don't hit the 186 lph. You have to work full-time (40 hours) as a new hire for 1 year, just fyi.

This is strange..we just had a conference call yesterday stating our line count requirement was 157 lph..

Could be the platform you are on. sm - E5 user.

Webmedx used the clunky E5 platform and had a lower min lph when we first became Nuance. Since they made improvements to the VR aspect (rolling eyes), we are now at 186 lph, which looks like, from this forum, people are struggling to maintain. I'm one of them. Enjoy the lower min lph while you can.

I think the lines are padded. After typing all day at break neck speed, I am shocked at the end of the day how low my line count is. I work for another company doing the same thing, just as fast, and I get double the lines. Well, we will never know because at Nuance we can't copy the report and paste it into Word to get a line count because it is blocked, I think they do that on purpose and that way we can't check our lines to see if it is accurate, which I know ...

I can do it most of the time, but every now and then I miss it, sometimes by as much as 20 lines per hour. I have had 1 email asking that I use my time more productively and make the line count. I actually do use my time as productively as I can. I admit, although I have done this for years, I am not great with VR editing. Also, with the high standards and deductions in FIESA, I really listen and listen again to much of my transcription so I don't fall below wanted numbers there. I am doing ...

I'm aware of the increase in lines per hour to 186 (average between regular and edited) which I think might be a little challenging to sustain on a regular day-in and day-out basis, but why is no one discussing the increased weekly line requirements. It's a pretty significant jump. ...

It is still 150 lines/hr for straight isn't it? (I think I've gotten a total of 3 straight transcription jobs in the last month).

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. I am wondering from those who do VR what kind of line production should I shoot for in 4 hours of work? What is the normal VR line count for part time? I have read that most who are working full time or 8 hours a day are doing more than 1,000, even 2,000 a day. The company I will be working for wants a minimum of 10,000 lines in a payperiod which the lady said even with part time ...

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. ...
