family coverage. They say you only have to work 32 hours to be eligible so I'm curious what their benefits are like. Thanks

Webmedex or Medware? Which would you choose in terms of benefits, specifically medical ins costs.
Any know what the difference is with these companies in terms of pay and what the preminums are for family medical insurance?
Keystrokes is hiring. Can anyone tell me how much for their medical insurance benefits etc...
I am looking for a FT job with good medical benefits for either myself or family coverage. They are seeking ortho MTs and that is right up my alley. Thanks in advance for any help.
Heard Keystrokes was getting better benefits, medical insurance etc.. Anyone care to elaborate? I
ready for a change.
Fairly flexible but they do like a schedule. Insurance is good. Benefits are good in my opinion.

For the past week, work has been a little slower but I think that is common in every company..some days busy and other not.


Help! Looking for good benefits, especially medical.
Spent the past couple of weeks applying for a few job openings and got offers from each company. For a variety of reasons, I am still looking but without exception, I found the benefits package insulting. I'm not that picky. Just want medical insurance that I can actually afford to take advantage of...reasonable deductible, at least fair to good coverage and premiums that won't break the bank. Any ideas?
Seeking company that offers good benefits including insurance.
Ideally, I'd like to find a company that offers medical insurance at a reasonable cost for family (under $500 a month) and a decent line count rate. Anyone have any ideas on this. Thanks.
Focus Infomatics--Anyone have any experience with their insurance benefits, good rate, etc..
Yes, I know all there is to know about them in the negative form but people respond only if you know about their insurance plan. Thanks
health benefits specifically

Looking for a company (as an employee, F/T) that offers affordable family plan health benefits for less than the $1022 per month I am paying now!


I absolutely love the company I work for, but their benefits are outrageous (small business) and me understanding their plight is not putting food on my table.  I have a special needs daughter, so I need actual insurance, NOT a discount plan.


Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.


insurance costs
Between $100.00 and $125.00 per month for medical for single coverage, with kids about $300.00 or so. Dental is extra, 401K, DISCOUNT eye program (not vision coverage)
Deventure insurance costs
I think I read somewhere that Deventure has Blue Cross insurance? If so what is the cost for single and also family?  What is their lpd requirement? TIA!
How is their benefit package? Insurance costs, etc?
//
Do you know what the insurance costs are?? family or single?
Thanks. Looking for a new job.
Ok, the single gal who works here says that her insurance costs sm
64 dollars a pay period and that is for Blue Cross/Blue Shield Gold Plan, vision, and dental which is all combined and pretty darned cheap.

High insurance costs are a national problem, not just in MT. My husband's company sm
charges us $210.00 per paycheck for him, me and our 2 children. The deductible is $500, each visit costs us $25, prescriptions are $10 for generic and $25 for everything else. It is getting crazy everywhere.
Are you a senior/mature MT? I think they are putting health insurance costs into hiring process

These companies can get CHEAP labor because some girls have small children and husbands and will sell themselves short when it comes to $$$$$.   With the offshoring and some U.S. MT's working for less than, that has destroyed any hope of a good wage or especially a raise.

Transolutions Insurance
Hi, I work for Transolutions and they have Trustmark Insurance.  I had nothing but headaches getting things covered by Trustmark for various reasons.  First it was finding an in-network doctor, then when they finally placed me into another network of doctors, I had a heck of a time getting them to pay for anything.  They flooded me with paperwork for every visit for various reasons before paying for anything once the deductible was met, and I usually had to call several times to get things straightened out.   Then, if I was lucky, they paid.  I dropped the insurance within the last year, and at 32 hours I was paying about $600/mo for family with a $750 deductible.   They also started this year giving a choice between 2 plans, the same $750 deductible plan and then also a high-deductible plan, but even the high-deductible plan I believe was at least $400/mo for family.  I know they have single, employee plus spouse rates, and employee plus child rates, etc., which cost less.   Hope that helps. 
Can a Transolutions MT tell me what kind of health insurance they have?SM
I have the idea in my mind that it does not cover where I live, but I can't remember the name to double check  Thinking of applying but I do need insurance.  You may email me if you would like to.  Thanks. 
Well, call a lawyer then. A good one. You could even get court costs paid by your employer probabl

Insurance/benefits
Can anyone recommend a good company that doesn't have outrageous premiums for family health coverage?  It seems most places are running in the $500+ per month range.  Does that seem about right?  I've been working just part-time for the last few years and didn't need benefits until now, so I have really never looked into the insurance premiums.  Thanks in advance.
insurance/benefits
How affordable for family, and what about other benefits?
Medical Benefits?
What company currently provides the best/cheapest medical insurance?  I'm willing to switch from IC to employee if I can find a company that has reasonable benefits.  My husband lost his.  Any info appreciated! 
PA health insurance benefits
I can't speak for all employers. I was manager of the transcription department for a large cardiology practice. Our health insurance premium was totally paid for (employee only). The company paid half of the premium for family coverage. Yes, those were the good old days! Now, as an employee with a national, I am looking at $400 per month for individual health insurance coverage with my current company.
I believe it's 90 days...I got my insurance benefits (sm)
after 90 days. 
Are there medical benefits for parttime? nm

Which company has the best medical benefits?
I have been searching for the company with the best medical benefits. After I test with the company and get a job with benefits they always offer crap insurance and it is expensive! Is there such thing as good benefits while working from home? I have been an IC for the past 10 years and never opted for insurance with companies that do offer it with employee status. I have also checked into private insurance, but the deductibles seem high. Thanks for any help or advice!!!
Does TransTech offer insurance benefits? nm

Yes, time clock. No insurance or any benefits for parttime.

You have to wait 90 days to quality for insurance and the other benefits. sm

There are 3 different plans for coverage -- basic, choice, and ultimate, I think -- and you choose which one is right for you. I do not have the paperwork handy, but it seems like good coverage at a reasonable price (single coverage, don't really remember about family), and you can also opt for dental and vision insurance.  You are right, though, the premium is deducted every 2 weeks.


 


Do you mean to say you have medical insurance etc??
Thanks for any information.
Medical Insurance

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a company that has medical insurance for its employees.  The company I work for now has just screwed us on the medical insurance and I am looking elsewhere.  Thanks. NM


Medical Insurance

I just want to remind everyone that the insurance coverage with a a company is very important, especially when single.  Do ask about the deductible.  Due to medical crisis, I faced 10 grand in medical bills which only added more stress to a very stressful situation.  And, that basically takes 10 thousand off my yearly income. 


Good insurance coverage means so much, especially when there is not a secondary ins. in place.


Just wanted to share this.  :)


I don't take the medical insurance either BUT
Their other benefits are phenomenal.  They provide LTD, STD, flexible spending account, 401K with match and they pay your vision insurance for the family.  They have an awesome PTO rate and you get paid for downtime IF you run out of work, which doesn't happen very often.  I can't remember the last time I was out of work.
Says medical and business expense benefits (whatever that means).
Company equipment provided. F/T and PT, then apply on line.
desperately need medical benefits, prescription coverage...sm
Can anyone recommend the companies that have good, solid, affordable medical coverage that has excellent prescription coverage for a single mom.  Thank you for all your replies in advance.  I need to get going on this ASAP.
Are there any companies out there that offer benefits to PT employees, such as health insurance?
I know it's a rarity but I know hospitals do.
Focus Infomatics..anyone have information on the cost of their insurance or other benefits?
I heard they recently started offering their employees insurance...just wondering the cost and if it's good insurance. Thanks
I love my job but I think I lost my insurance benefits. Has anyone else not met the pay period quota
one time and had their insurance taken away? I think it happened to me. I fell short this payperiod on my time ($90) as I was ill for a couple of days and had no PTO time to use. Now, my insurance premiums were not taken out so I am afraid they canceled my insurance, which was the largest reason I have stayed. I needed the good insurance etc..not to mention that I just like working there and my supervisors. I did make more than enough for them to have taken out the premiums so I feel like this was just an excuse to cancel it. Now, if I have to wait another 120 days to qualify again, I will have to end up quitting and that is not a great feeling, but I know I can get a job somewhere else and not have to wait so long to have insurance again. I'm just sickened. I can't believe they would do this in one pay period. I work 7 days a week usually, all hours of the day and night and I just can't grasp they would do this. I have worked there over 2 years. So, do they really do this, for anyone who has had this happen before. Maybe, they are just suspending the insurance this pay period but I don't see how they can stop it one pay period and start it back in 2 weeks on the next pay period. Anyway, stressed out!!!
TransTech for many reasons, good pay, stable company, good benefits
and flexible.
I have looked around the last 6 months and have found nothing better. Have turned down numerous jobs, and have finally decided to stay put. The better insurance plans were announced and even moreso than ever, I am staying put, and my paycheck is happy about that because it is getting better every day. Good luck to you.
Is the NWU offering medical insurance again?
I had great insurance at a great rate through them years and years ago, then they dropped it because the cost was prohibitive. If they are offering it again, I applaud them. They are a good union and very unconfrontational, well spoken (guess that's a mute point, eh?) but still don't have the big bucks it would take to promote the MT industry on the level that is needed. Almost every American MT would need to join and NWU would need to find a lobbying group to help.

Employee Medical Insurance
Are there any national companies that pay the full premium for employee medical coverage or is this only offered if you work outside the home?  Thanks.
That is so NOT the purpose of medical insurance. nm

How are the medical insurance rates?
Did they go up too? They were interested in me a couple of months ago, but I did not call them because I had already picked someone else. I know they are great, but did their insurance rate for employee and children, or family go up like everyone else? I am considering contacting them again. Although I don't want to change jobs at all, if their rates are good I won't have to spend most of my paycheck on medical. Please someone let us know here. It is an important issue!
Zylomed Medical Insurance
Can anyone who works for Zylomed who has employee status give me some info on how their medical insurance benefits are?  Thanks!
So if you have a medical claim, the insurance - sm
doesn't pay anything until you've forked out the first $2,000? That's appalling!
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. 
Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
Medical insurance isn't about feelings. It's business. nm

Thank you. Could you elaborate on the benefits, offer single medical coverage or family, PTO etc...
Thanks
Transolutions, any good??

Got an offer and wondering if any good.  Have heard some good but wondering about the bad with it.  Need work and more pay than getting with Spheris and time to switch to somewhere else!
