There is no base pay. You get paid by the piece. Piece rates are often not reflective of the work actually needing to be done. They sell it like you can make as much money as you work for but it's not possible to get the work done correctly and make even $15 dollars an hour. This wasn't as much of a problem when they also allowed you to filter for the easier claims to balance it out. Now that's not allowed but the piece rate has not been increased. Often process changes just increase your work load but raises don't really exist because you're just paid by the same piece rate as the brand new guy. Technically there's an hourly rate that's used for training. If there are system issues you pay for it by not being paid. Tons of overtime is expected and essentially required if you want to pay your bills.
