Minimum lph.

I asked this question already on the company board, but I ask it also on this board: What do companies do if an MT turns in 98% accurate work, or above, but does not transcribe the minimum lines per day, as an employee? Does this MT always get fired, or how do companies handle this? TIA ...

I'm worried if I suffer another .03 cent decrease I may drop below minimum wage. How do we indicate that to somebody? Is it calculated per pay period - or what? ...

I've worked for MQ before, just before CBay bought MQ, but I can't remember (and maybe it's changed) what is the minimum number of hours or lines required per week? I thought it was something like 2000 lines per week. Is the minimum per hour still 100 lph for PT? Also, what's the pay rate for VR now? I think it was still 70% when I left. Is it 50% or 60% of your regular line rate? I'm just looking for something very part-time, like 10 hours ...

a job to upload. All those add up and if you don't clock out for them it will go against your LPH and make a difference in your assessments. ...

Massachusetts may well pass a minimum wage of $11 (over 3 years). It's passed the state senate. Parts of WA (Seatac) actually have a $15 minimum wage. Wonder what Nuance will do about MUP now, since so many in those states will be getting it. Could get interesting. ...

Okay, so I read by 2015, DC wants minimum wage to be $11.50 an hour. I'm assuming by that time Nuance will make our minimum line count reflect this increase - approximately 280 lph, especially since WE NEVER GET A RAISE. ...

My primary account is a straight typing account. I can't consistently make the minimum line count of 150 lph in our 8 hours. I use my shorthand and as many normals as i can, but I'm making no money. How is everyone doing this? Plus for VR it's only 180 lph. Seems like actually typing the lph should be lower. Someone please tell me how to get enough lines in!! Would quit in a heartbeat if I could, but a little pay is better than no pay, though I am still looking. ...

just wondering if anyone knows...is there any kind of rule for paying you a minimum wage if your income with MM drops below the minimum wage? ...

Bottom line is, regardless of the new pay rules, it's hard to even make above minimum wage before or after the new rules. So at least federal law guarantees minimum wage. Beyond that, my goal is to get out of this field and leave this MTSO company ASAP, though it won't happen overnight. ...

A $15.00 minimum wage would equate to 375 lines per hour at .04 per line. That's 3000 lines a day for an 8 hour day! The best I have ever done was 2700 lines editing in an 8 hour day and that was only once and someplace where I had been doing the same doctors for 6 years. Guess I would get fired for always getting MUP. And by the way, that's 428 lines per hour (3424 lines per day) at .035 per line and 500 lines per hour at 0.03 (4000 lines per day). If more cities raise the ...

I'm curious if anyone is making minimum production with TTS, 125 LPH transcription and 250 LPH editing? If so, can you give any tips regarding what you cut out? Proofing, research, etc? How do you handle the long pauses in dictation? Anyone use the "Skip Silent" command? I can see 125 LPH for transcription but 250 for editing when you have to lose production with poor dictators? Thanks for any feedback! ...

Does anybody know what their minimum QA scores are? They have postings for QA and MT but no mention it. I do good work but don't want to be nitpicked to death for a 99.9% score. Thx. ...

Have any MTSOs set a minimum number of lines per hour for VR Editing (per hour, day, week, or pay period)? I have seen posts where Medical Transcriptionists/VR Editors have lamented about losing benefits because they are not able to meet straight typing minimums (the average seems to be around 150 lines per hour, 1200 lines per day, or 6000 lines per week), but I have never seen anyone talk about not being able to meet MINIMUM VR Editing requirements. Since it seems as though most la ...

Are we supposed to report this to someone? Plus, since our earnings may fluctuate from pay to pay, what do we do then? ...

My ASR rate x 100 is less than minimum wage. My transcription rate x 100 is just slightly higher than minimum wage. I wonder if MQ is planning to increase the minimum lph to 150. ...

on your lines? I have the worst time staying focused and get worried at the end of every pay period if I haven't met my minimum line requirement. I get paid more on minimum wage anyway. Do you always make your line minimum requirement? ...

With the last spate of "changes" including institution of the latest version of DocQScribe -- the blossoming of the "swap board" and the "waving bye-bye" of accounts of 8-years' duration -- as they switch to using TEMPLATES (God Bless Electronic Medical Records) --my income has dropped more than 50% in the last 6 months. But hey, I'm not concerned. After all, I'm an idiot to begin with. I have no intellect, no language skills, no research skills, no "shorth ...

On today's check I had 0.25 hours at minimum wage, and I have no idea why. I have always produced my 150 lph minimum every day since I started. I am not making a ton of money, but my hourly average is more than minimum wage. Now I am getting really paranoid. Of course, I am in the over 10 cpl category. This just can't be right, but I fear it has put me on some big-wig's termination radar. ...

What's the minimum amount of hours you can work a week at Medquist? Is 20 hours the bare minimum? ...

Are there any VR companies (Escription preferably) that will allow you to work based on reaching a line count, not on an 8 hour window? ...

beginning June 1st. I wonder what will accompany this change - reducing the workforce by 20% or lowering pay? ...

I checked the accelerate silence playback box in options. Underneath the box is a scale of 5 seconds to 30 seconds (minimum silence length) - what does this mean? What is the best setting to go with the accelerated silence playback - am confused. Thanks. ...

I am just curious if we are entitled to minimum wage since those of us who are employees are required a minimum to keep benefits and yet not making minimum wage and just sitting here not making any money while accounts are over staffed? ...

I have a doctor on one of my accounts who LOVES to dictate as few words as possible. VR picks it up really well; that's not the problem. How do you handle thpse reports that need to be fleshed out so much? Personally, I don't think he should be on VR since you need to add so many words that the pay rate becomes next to nothing for his reports. Example: 71 year old. Followup. Pain. Arm. Flesh it out or leave it be? ...

I have heard in various places on these boards that if you are supposed to work full-time and your pay (by the line or character) doesn't equal minimum wage for those hours, you can get unemployment even though you still have a job. Does anyone know if that is true? Does it apply to part-time work? If anyone has a link to valid information, please let me know. I don't even know where to look, but I'm dying here with NJA when I'm supposed to be working, getting no response ...

On a post below about SGS, an MT states that she is being paid minimum wage. She states she had to 'fight' for it, however, they are paying her minimum wage on the accounts where she is scheduled, and expected, to sit in front of her computer when there is very little work. I have asked several coworkers about this, and some of them are being paid minimum wage, as well. Not all; only the ones who requested (demanded) it. THERE GOES ALL MTSO CLAIMS THAT SINCE WE' ...

I was reading a post placed earlier today about minimum wage and calling employment lawyers, etc. Why can't we all get together, hire someone to represent us (like a lobbyist) or start our own organization since AAMT bailed on us. There is power in numbers. We just need someone who is a leader to step forward and make this happen. I would be willing to pay a small sum of money on my part to get something started for us to have some type of representation to get our i ...

Am I reading the policy correctly? Even if I choose to take PTO, I'm going to get minimum wage? I've never run out of work before. ...

I've been trying to go through the older posts on here, but I've waded through so many opinion-based comments that my mind is beginning to spin. Thanks for any fact-based answers. ...

Minimum lph. - MT

lines per hour - wendy

lph - Anonymous

I was told there was none, though BS/FN platform yields 0.075 cpl - if you go below 150.

It depends on the platform--sm - anon
