I pay about $75 per pay period for medical, dental, vision with TT sm

for single coverage -- I don't consider that 'huge, especially compared to other quotes I have seen.  I definitely paid more than that when I had coverage on my own.


 


Blue Cross medical,Guardian dental, Spectera vision, 10,001 lines per pay period. sm
Cost per pay period for single coverage is $94.36, $1.68 vision, $7.06 dental.  Hope this helps.     
Yes, medical, dental, vision, and life

Dental and vision are separate and extra. sm

I don't know how much, though, because I tossed the info on it as the provider list for the dental was SO LIMITED it wasn't even worth it, I couldn't get any dentist I wanted.


Their individual insurance is $52 a mo and their dental and vision
run it up to about $60 a month. If you leave, you also get to Cobra the dental and vision together at $30 a month. I know because I left and went back. Nice folks.
about 180 per 2 weeks for family, dental, and vision.

Vision and dental are separate.  250 deductible.  there is a cap of out of pocket expenses for family, I am not sure as I am not covered right now, but will in the near future.  they pay 90%.  Office visits Co-pay with medication co-pay.  It is really a great coverage and by far the best from what other companies offer that I have found. 


Hope that helps.  Check them out.  I think they are great to work for!


I don't think you missed much. When I looked at the dental and vision plans sm

with AFLAC, it didn't look like they paid for much compared with the premium charged.  I didn't talk to the representative guy, though, so maybe I misinterpreted the info.  Anyway, I am trying to shop for something different, just to help cover the basics.  I do wish I had taken out the disability protection with them, though ... maybe next year.  :-)


I am extremely grateful for the insurance, though.  So far, it seems to pay pretty well and has been a lifesaver!



When we signed up for the new vision and dental, it said in the forms that it started 6/1. Deductio
They were waiting for the paperwork from the insurance company, so it was delayed. Technically, the money should have come out on 6/1 and you knew this signing up for it.

I don't want to sound uncaring, but we knew when we signed up that the premiums were monthly and started 6/1. I had the extra month of $15, so I knew it would come out.

The truth is that the double was $30 but one was only $15, so it was $15 extra. If they had taken it out last month, would you have been complaining?

I personally am glad that we have vision and dental now and that every year my benefits get better rather than being taken away like with some companies.

Also, it is the bank that determines that if it falls on the 1st, it posts on Monday. My bank posts on Saturday, so not a problem. Before you complain, make sure you have something to complain about. They have also had them in on the Friday in the past, so I am not going to bash a good company for something that has not happened. If it does go on Monday, that is what we know from day one, so it is not that they are pulling a fast one or making changes; this is the way it has been for the 5 years I have worked for them.
I paid 80 per pay period without eye or dental coverage. nm

They don't pay for vision unless you have medical insurance.
When I first started they paid for vision, but unless you get medical coverage it is no longer free, unless it changed with the enrollment that is going on now. 
How is the medical/dental for Medquist?
Curious to know before I take the test. Cost? Coverage?
Medical/Dental MedQuist

The coverage just switched in July from Aetna to United HealthCare.  I have single coverage and pay $63 per pay for health and $8.58 for dental. I don't know how good this United coverage is because I haven't used it yet. But I know there are 2 or 3 different plans you can sign up for.  I have to pay a little more because my doctor is an out of network doctor. I know if you have a doctor who is already in their network it's cheaper. I also have short-term disability that they take out about $11 for.  I don't know about the dental because I haven't used it for a while. The only dentist on their list that was in my area was about 50 miles away. So I'm hoping nothing happens to my teeth!  If you have any more questions you can e-mail me.


I pay about $150 a month for single coverage, medical, dental, sm
vision, $750 deducible, $15 copay for PCP, $30 copay for PPO specialist.  Hope that helps.
Dental is Metlife; medical is BCBS w/medication plan sm
$1000 deductible but office visits are $25 co-pay. I think there is a vision option but I don't take it. DD, payday every other Monday; my checks have always been on time. Incentive plan based on total # lines produced, as well as shift differential (not much but there is one). 6 paid holidays, PTO (which is not much first year but rises after that).

As for hours, talk to the recruiter about what you want; I believe schedules are based on which accounts have needs at the time you apply.

401K - no matching.

I'm looking for someone who works (or has worked) for this company.  Any information would be helpful.

Just wondering if there are any Transtech Medical MTs out there that are running out of work a lot in the past week or so?


Thanks!

TransTech Medical Solutions

What do we know about Transtech Medical Solutions?  I tried a search and found nothing.  They don't just use ICs, do they?  You can get employee status?  Pay range?  Ease of use of platform?  Anything?  Will my GearPlayer work?  ShortHand compatible?

TransTech Medical question

I tested with them the other night and was offered a position via e-mail yesterday. I e-mailed the recruiter back stating I was interested and she then e-mailed me saying she had some things to take care of and then she would call me. She never did. I e-mailed her stating I was available all day today and I still haven't heard from her. I know they're very busy hiring now and things could be a bit chaotic there, so should I be concerned that I haven't heard from her yet?


TransTech Medical Solutions
Like I said, they are a great company to work for, really starting to grow. I have been with them for almost a year. You set your schedule, though they do have a minimum # of hours. They have been flexible with me in that when something comes up, and I need to do something, I can usually ask ahead of time and there's no problem taking the time off. Good luck!
TransTech Medical Solutions is (sm)
the one always being talked about on the board.  Never heard of the other one.
Any info on TransTech Medical
Was made an offer and am thinking about it. Pros, cons?

Thanks in advance :)
info on transtech medical

good company?


webmedx vs transtech medical
webmedx or Transtech medical input please.

I really would appreciate some input on these 2 places. I appreciated all the in input on Precyse. After working at Spheris going to another outsource company is terrifying, but see the writing on the wall with the local hospital I am working for now. Need something to get me to retirement in 4 years. TIA
TransTech Medical Solutions
Would anyone that works for Transtech be willing to share some information with me?  I am thinking of switching to TT but would like to know if all their work is on a VR platform or do they do any regular transcription?  And also, what kind of line rates do they pay for either one?  I need a steady paying job with a good income and lots of work, as I am a single parent with a child starting to college in the fall. The company I currently work for does not have enough work for me to make a decent income even though I am working full-time.  Any information about TransTech would be greatly appreciate before I consider making this move.  Thanks!

Transtech Medical question
Can someone tell me about this company. I know they're based in Houston. I kinda need to know what platform I'd be working on, basic pay scale for someone with 10 yrs exp, do they use c-phone, percentage of ESL work, just stuff like that. Please email me if you'd prefer not to advertise your answers.

Thanks so much !

Unless things have changed. Have not worked at any of them but know people who did.
Any recent info on TransTech Medical Solutions of Houston TX.....sm
I just received an offer to test, wonder if it is worth it; I have a few offers, but nothing I am truly convinced about....how is this company to work for, and do they accept PT folk, don't care if it is IC, SE, or regular employee......and I, too, need flexibility, as long as I get my lines in and always make turnaround time.  Long time ago, there were many, many companies that operated that way; now, it seems, everyone is very rigid -- so am I, but I have to make things work with family situation, I am not only caring for 3 kids, but also 89-year-old mom part-time.  Thanx all in advance!
Less than $360 for family at MQ. Med/Den/Vision

Do they still pay vision since switching
to TriNet?   The rates went up pretty significantly on everything else. 
Does anyone know anything about Vision Infonet?
curious.  I could find no info, except for MD help or something.  just wondering. tia.
part-time IC is 5000/pay period and full time IC is 10,000 per pay period. Need to talk with
recruiter about cpl, I'm sure it varies with experience. 
If vision is an option, can you answer this? sm
Any eye care specialist (or contact lens wearer) attest that glasses do not improve vision as well as contacts lenses. Contacts correct the peripheral vision whereas glasses do not. Also, speaking from personal experience, NOTHING compares to LASIK. Contacts corrected my vision to 20/20 bilaterally. I had LASIK done almost 3 years ago and my vision is still 20/15 in both eyes.

I had custom wavefront, which was pretty pricy at $3300. However, I haven't paid a dime for vision correction since my procedure. Before LASIK, I would estimate my annual eyecare costs ranging from $450 to $600.

Insurance companies will pay for auditory surgery such as cochlear implants to correct hearing impairment, which they should. But how is surgery to correct hearing any different than LASIK to correct a visual impairment? Couldn't the same argument (cosmetic)be used if a hearing aid provided the same benefit as an expensive cochlear implant?

I just don't understand the inconsistency. Could it be that people with visual problems far outnumber those with hearing loss? Just a thought.
The foreseeable future is viewed through 20/200 vision.
which means it's not going to be too far down the road.
I believe Jan 1. I already used the dental,
and it paid 100%. Just got the EOB today. And with my great new dentist, I just showed my card and they filed it, and I didn't have to pay it myself like I did with my last dentist. They didn't even file it for me.
Dental

We get an occasional dental surgery report on some of our hospital accounts. 


Just FYI:  I had extensive dental work and oral surgery done 2 years ago and asked both places about their transcription.  They said they do it inhouse.

Dental Transcription
Hello does anyone know of any at home dental transcription companies?
My dental hygienist
is a guy. He makes tons of money and loves his job.
How is Medquist's dental insurance? sm
Is there a waiting period of 1 year before you can use it? If not, is there a waiting period of 1 year before you can use it for orthodontics or dentures? Some policies you have to wait a year to use it and others you can use it for fillings and such, but have to wait a year for anything really major.
DSGs dental insurance
Does the dental insurance that DSG offers have a $1000 annual limit on amount of payout?
not paying for life or dental
Not many companies pay for dental or life. With the way things are going in this county, can you blame them? If we still have work, keep working! I am not giving up on this company until I get my OUT THE DOOR NOTICE! Believe me- I sure in the heck don't want that to happen- love my accounts and the fact that we do not have to do a time clock. Yes, we need to work our schedules, but not punching in and out is a good feeling!
BC/BS with $1K deductible, dental is normal sm
coverage and as the person below pointed out, you are wrong on the PTO.  Also, last year we were allowed to choose a plan with a lower deductible and pay for it and that choice was not given to us this year.  Why don't you try telling the truth about Webmedx instead of prettying up everything?
Webmedx offers PPO and good dental. nm

Dental is thru Metlife (good coverage). sm
Platform is their own, uses ShortHand for expander.
