Most medical transcriptionists are paid by the line. It is fairly standard now on your word processing program to have built in line and word counters, with or without spaces. I use Microsoft Word and it has this feature.
The normal line is usually considered to be 65 characters long. Every letter, symbol, and space between each word is included in the character count. If you are counting your lines, group together your shorter line to make one line. If you have half lines do not charge the doctor for a whole line.

When billing for medical transcription, do you take the character count minus the template or is the template normally included in the character count?

Medical transcription is a medical language specialty, so you can see that it requires not only the proper training, but also an investment in reference materials and a commitment to ongoing learning as technology and terminology changes.Business Transcription
Am I the only one who thinks working for 5 cents per line is being nothing but schmuck? Hasn't anyone ever converted that to the hourly equivalent? Last check I earned 0.75 cents per day working for these kinds of companies! WAKE UP PEOPLE!
