hybrid reimbursement
Does that mean 500.00 on a used hybrid or 500.00 on any used car?
Hybrid vehicle reimbursement?
I saw that on their ad.  What does this mean, you get a Hybrid they pay?  I thought that was interesting to know more.
Hybrid vehicle reimbursement?
It says that on their latest job posting. What exactly does that mean (other than the obvious)?
hybrid vehicle reimbursement?

can someone please tell me what TTS add means when it says hybrid vehicle reimbursement?  I'm just lost here..


 


The automobile put the horse and buggy drivers out of work...
that doesn't mean the car was a bad thing! EMR technology WORKS efficiently (I am speaking now of direct input by the provider, not VR or offshoring...those still suck) and it puts the accountability for accuracy where it belongs, with the servicing provider. It is in fact the wave of the future and we may as well just face that and plan accordingly.

I hope to eke a living out of this until retirement (just another decade or so away). I would not advise any young person to get into it actual transcription now, though, just from reading the handwriting on the wall. If I were looking to get into the field now I would aim for the programming, sales, or management end of the biz.
IC reimbursement
yes, they can legally do this...but please be careful...if you are TRULY an IC and receive a 1099 be sure to PAY YOUR OWN WAY. In the view of the IRS, one of the characteristics of an independent contractor is that s/he pays all travel expenses directly. If you approach this as an IC you can stay where you wish, bring whom you wish, and negotiate some of the costs with your client if they are kindly offering reimbursement. I suggest you contact them and see if there are alternative web-based solutions for their non-employee ICs to receive the needed training; if not, and this is a client you wish to retain, attending the training and writing off the expenses is just part of owning your own business....
Reimbursement at Webmedx...isn't it...
that they'll reimburse you for half of your test fee if you are an MT. (Still, very generous. I took advantage of that when I recently got credentialed.)
Used hybrid.

Hybrid vehicle?
What is Hybrid vehicle reimbursement all about? See it on their advertisement
A hybrid Hummer?

Cable reimbursement! I completely forgot about that!
My former employer did not pay for that, and I completely forgot that TT pays! I have never submitted a bill for reimbursement. SHEESH! What a space cadet I am!!!!
You buy a new or used hybrid vehicle and they will give you $$$ to help pay for it.
They are really cool people with a really cool company. I have never been happier.
I don't think MTs are running out to buy hybrid cars
It's not an incentive to sign up. They don't need to do that because word of mouth does that for them. It's more like core values of how a company operates and what they believe in.
They do believe we should all do it. The owner of TT even drives a hybrid.
They think its important that we all do what we can for the environment and they are willing to help us do it. Kudos to TT.
Oh, sure...my reimbursement check was a figment of my imagination. Get a life. nm.

Had interviewed and was then told I'd need a second line, w/o reimbursement. Make sure you ask! I

$1000 toward the purchase of a new hybrid vehicle
It's a nice way for TT to encourage environmental consciousness. My husband and I are in need of a new car. Haven't made a decision yet, but we're definitely considering taking TT up on this offer.
Also looking into them. Do they have benefits?

TIA. 


How are the benefits and
do they pay according to experience, i.e. will they match what you are making elsewhere if they have more work than one can handle lately if one tests high with them? If you know, please tell.
DSG benefits
Quoted me at over $1000 per month for two people. Needless to say, did not take it!
Same here! What benefits?
x
? Benefits
What health insurance benefits does KS have? I have heard they are not paying anything toward it and it is very expensive.
Benefits
I just put in a call today as I am looking for benefits now as my husband was just laid off. I can take Unicare for $354 per month until January 1st when Blue Cross/Blue Shield kicks in. The cost on that is $256 per month (my share) as Keystrokes picks up 25% of the employee portion. Seems to be average as that is around what my husband paid at his old company.
Benefits
SAAAWEEET!!     I LOVE KEYSTROKES!!  Just when you think they were the best... THEY GET BETTER!!! 
No benefits necessary

How about FT with benefits?

Benefits
I think Cymed is worth looking at. They have a few different options and deductibles so you can try and find a fit with your needs. Also it is BC/BS, plus dental and vision. Not sure how their costs compare to others out there, but no matter where you go the cost of benefits has gone through the roof unless you can actually hook up with a hospital. Good luck.

PS - got many more benefits where I went
LOL - much, much better.
How about benefits?

Medical, PTO, etc.  TIA.


Benefits
Do they provide benefits?
Benefits
For health insurance, all the plans had fairly high deductibles. The lowest deductible and most expensive to the employee was $1500 up to $3000. Dental seemed to be basic. Also, they don't kick in until 1st of the month after your 90-day probationary period, assuming you are meeting your production. Didn't stay long enough to qualify.
FN benefits

I really don't see what ALL the hullabaloo is about regarding FutureNet and whether they offer this or that as far as benefits, DD or whatever.  As an independent contractor, if you have to get health insurance for yourself and dependents, look at the cost as a tax deduction for heaven's sake.


To be eligibile for DD, you have to CONSISTENTLY make 14K lines a pay period and I for one, would much RATHER pay the extra $25 and know that my check is going to get to me by 12 noon the next day. You will receive an email with the tracking # etc, the Thursday before.


Take into consideration too, that there are a LOT of services out there that do NOT offer benefits or direct deposit.  I have been in this business 25 years, and I for one, LOVE the flexibility of being able to work for a service when I want to, and not having to work someone's set schedule, just because of benefits or whatever.  It's a choice that YOU and only YOU can make.


 


 


No benefits. IC only. nm

Benefits
No more than anywhere now a days and definitely cheaper than trying to get them on your own. Benefits have gone through the roof pretty much everywhere.
benefits
The way I see it is I will pay nearly $400-500 out of every check for benefits? Is that true?
benefits
thats about right
Benefits
Where are you coming up with that figure? Is that for a full family?
benefits
Yes that's for a full family. I got that from some information I was given by them.
Benefits

Hi, I work there too and that's about right for a family plan, if my recollection is right. The insurance is not too bad for just the employee but when you add husb or kids it get up there, but then again it seems to be like that at most places nowdays.  I think their plan/coverage is pretty good though.  I have been lucky and have been covered by my husband's policy and the kids are grown now, so I don't need to buy the coverage, you can also buy disability/life ins plans, etc. Other benefits are paid days off, but that takes years to accrue that and extra pay on holidays, etc. (but everyone is required to work 4 hours on the holiday)  I have always worked partime at physicians office or else as an IC, so I never had benefits anywhere and have always worked 6-7 days a week and holidays as an IC (only time I could get caught up was on the holidays).  The only thing I benefit from now is the extra holiday pay, and they do have 401-K and match a limited amount which is nice.  Hope this helps.. talk to your contact person if you have questions, they can probably answer them in more detail.   Good luck.


Benefits
Are there any companies that offer benefits that aren't a joke.  I have talked to a few offering insurance but the premiums are ridiculous, I could get just as cheap on my own.....
benefits
The benefits ARE good, but you definitely earn them. If ESLs don't make you crazy, you'll like it there. Me, after tearing my hair out for awhile, took a lower-paying job elsewhere with easier dictators and actually bring home more $$$ now, but not good benefits. It's a trade-off.
NO BENEFITS
There are no benefits at all at this time, but it is in the workings.
benefits

Does anyone know of a company who offers part-time benefits?


 


no benefits.
xx
How's the benefits
Are the benefits at Medware costly or reasonable? I went to work for Diskriter, but was trying to choose between Medware and Diskriter. I chose Diskriter because they gave me the low down on their insurance costs.
Benefits
I don't believe Amphion offers medical benefits for P/T.
benefits
any company out there with decent benefits with decent deductibles and rates? 
Benefits
Anyone willing to share their benefit information? This is such a big part of a job now a days and I would love to see companies that actually have a good package (are there any?) get the recognition.
Benefits
Thanks to all who replied. It sounds like the bottom line is benefits are a rarity in the MT world. I just don't get how we are supposedly in such demand, but salaries keep dropping and benefits are a joke.

Benefits

The benefits are awesome!!!!  The insurance costs are just unbelievable.  I cover myself and my children on vision, dental, and health and it's less than 130 biweekly I believe.  The vacation/sick leave allowance is pretty good too! 


The benefits are okay, better than
some and not as good as others.  There are several health insurance options and some cost way more than others, it depends on the coverage you want.  I find it very hard to get a good line count with this company because I have a lot of difficult accents and poor speakers, nitpick on the QA, and not paid for spaces. This is definitely the lowest line count per hour I have ever made with any company.
