Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

A Question regarding pay.

I posted this last night, but I cannot find it anywhere on this board.  It is a serious question for me and I would appreciate any opinions regarding this.


I am an Independent Contractor.  One lady who I have been contracting through for several years, who carries the contract with the clinic, had a stroke.  She was in the hospital for one week.  I immediately stepped up and took over everything that she was doing, including final editing for 3 other transcriptionists, processing to the clinic, bookkeeping/billing.  She has not done any type of work for 2 weeks and she will be out for several more weeks to months.  She offered to pay me $100 every two weeks for the bookkeeping and such.  I don't want to be greedy, but I feel this is low. I spend at least one hour each day doing the extra stuff and more when it comes to billing.  I was just wondering if anyone has been in this situation or if anyone has an idea of what would be fair.  Of course, I stepped up to be helpful, but I also don't want to lose this contract with the clinic.
