Are there any companies who offer health benefits to part time employees?
Need insurance.
Any companies offer health insurance for part time?
Companies are hardly offer FT employees any decent benefits so I think is going to be rare to find
them for PT employees. I would love that too, unfortunately, I work too much just to get below average benefits. Best of luck in your search. Honestly, I think the only place you'll find benefits for part-timers is going in-house at a hospital.
Do they offer health insurance?

Does Transcend offer health insurance?

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.
Trasolutions, anyone know the kind of health insurance they offer? i.e. BC/BS

Companies that provide afforable health insurance?
I was wondering if anyone can tell me what companies provide affordable health insurance. I need to provide insurance for my family with good coverage and affordable premiums. I can't wait 90 days or more before benefits start. I need to work at a company that provides benefits pretty quickly. I know...seems impossible these days. Thanks for any help you can provide!
Any companies letting part-timers buy in on the health insurance? sm
Just wondering if there are any transcription companies where you can work 20 or 25 hours a week and get in on the health insurance plan even if you have to pay the whole premium yourself? Thanks
Any companies out there that offer the hospital benefits besides Diskriter
I currently work in-house a hospital but they do not have at-work positions and I would like ot work at home so I wondered if there were other companies and/hospitals that hire at-home MTs with full benefits....besides Diskriter as I have not heard a lot of good news about them and it makes me nervous to apply.
Do any companies offer insurance that covers IVF? sm
Does anyone happen to know if any companies offer insurance that covers IVF? I have been in this business for nearly a decade and have been doing QA for the last 4, but I would take a job right now with just about anyone as long as they offered insurance that covered IVF. It is so expensive out of pocket, and I really need the coverage. I have even been considering taking a job out of the transcription industry to get this coverage. So, I guess if anyone knows anywhere at all I can get this coverage.. please help!!! I am unfortunately in a state where this coverage is not mandated... so it is very hard to come by... :(
I am not sure if this was the right board... but I thought it was worth a shot... :P
Companies w/Escription accounts that offer affordable family insurance??
I realize that affordable is subjective so whatever information anyone can give woudl be appreciated. The majority of Escription accounts offer IC only. Thanks
Any companies offer part-timers chance to buy into group insurance? need coverage ....
I've been looking at prices for solo medical insurance and while I can probably afford some coverage, I'm feeling rather paranoid about having insurance canceled if I actually get sick -- I'm fairly ignorant about what protections may have been passed and may just be responding to other people's horror stories.
Anyway, I'm not entirely sure I want to work full time for any of the nationals ... they seem to have gotten awfully rigid wrt daily line counts within certain fixed hours ... some days I'm simply creaky and hate feeling pressured ... so part time to start seems more reasonable than jumping in with both feet. Any infor or recommendations appreciated ...
Thanks!
HEALTH BENEFITS
ABOUT 340 PER MONTH, BLUE CROSS AND BLUE SHIELD. THEY ARE STABLE BENEFITS FOR SURE.
How soon can one get health benefits with them?
I am looking for a company that has dental coverage without the $1000 annual limit in payouts.
Does DSG have affordable health benefits? SM
Any idea on the cost of this? Thanks, :-)
$15-18 is great, but what if ya' need health benefits?
Sometimes those premiums can be pricey in private practice. Not what the OP asked, but just adding by 2 cents.
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.
what company offers the best health benefits?
What company offers the best health benefits?
As far as:
waiting period before they start (I'm looking for 90 days or less),
how much they cost for yourself and dependents (I have myself +1 - spouse - can pay maybe $300/month out of paycheck at most),
PEC lookback period (preexisting condition - example - look back 3 months is better than 1 year),
pharmacy cost (I need a flat rate copay, not a percentage, with no yearly cap, and brand names and generics)
Anyone who has been happy or unhappy with their insurance through their work-at-home MT company, please share your experience and opinions. Thanks

Do you know how much your health insurance is? sm
I applied today and took the online test. I am confident I did well. I am sure, though, there are a lot of others doing the same. I was just wondering how much health insurance cost monthly. Do you get paid by the line or by the hour? Are they pretty fair?

I'm also looking to Webmedx. I was wondering if you, or someone else out there, might have an idea what the cost of health insurance for family would be. Thank you!
TT health insurance
Are any of you taking out the insurance. I just started in October with the big hire, and should be eligible February 1, 2007, right? Anybody know.
I have also been curious about the PTO time accrued.
Is the health insurance
a good policy. Is the premium super high.
health insurance
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what companies give a pretty good rate for health insurance? Thanks!
IC, what do you do about health insurance. sm
It is way expensive on the outside if you know what I mean.
MDI-MD have health insurance for MTs?
I'm in their site and I can't find mention of benefits anywhere?
health insurance
Amen to everything that has been posted on this ongoing subject. I too have heard promises of new insurance over and over for the past couple years.
What's worse is that employees had to answer personal questions in a phone interview for insurance that never materialized.
And why was that AFLAC phone conference manditory? After reading through the materials they sent in the mail, I already knew I didn't want to waste my money on supplemental insurance.
Finally, if KS can't find better/cheaper health insurance, why can't they at least start paying for a portion of the premiums on the current insurance plan??
These are all questions that will probably go unanswered.
health insurance
I have had a gap, I was covered through end of November. I have been on meds, but there are some plans that define PEC as receiving treatment i.e. seeing a doctor, and just being on meds continuously doesn't count (Premera plans typically work this way). I have an offer from a company with a Premera plan that has a 3 month PEC so I am fine on that one. But with that company I can't afford to cover my spouse ($400/month paycheck deduction for him, $66 paycheck deduction for me).
health insurance
I am aware of this, that is why I am trying to look into all possibilities for now and also a couple years down the road. May have to keep a day job for a couple years while doing IC part time or something.
But I do know of a couple companies so far that will take a well-educated newbie that offer benes, and I am also starting to figure out what my goal companies are for later, from people's feedback.
Everyone's feebback is invaluable on this subject, for me and other newbies who have this question.
NEED HEALTH INSURANCE!
Isn't life a joy! Thought I was going through menopause and it turns out I'm pregnant! I've been with my current employer for 6 years, they have the worst insurance I've ever seen in my life. Does anyone know of any companies that are currently hiring with half way decent health insurance, maybe a deductible that won't bankrupt me!??

regarding spheris health insurance
Hi,
I got a job offer from spheris, i need some info regarding their health insurance benefits, how they are. Do they cut from our paycheck for health insurance i was offered 202 for family for two weeks excluding dental and vision. I would appreciate if anybody post message on it.
Nancy.
regarding spheris health insurance
hi,
thanks for the reply, but my questions is yesterday i got interviwed. The recruiter told me that the family insurance will be 202 for every two weeks and the money goes from our pay check only it looks more cost for insurance and excluding dental and vision is that everyone is getting the same insurance offer from Spheris for family or it depends on plan.
What do you pay for health insurance? Survey. sm
What do you pay at the company you are with for health insurance? Is it employee, employee w/spouse, employee w/children or family? What is the deductible? HMO or PPO? Big company or small? What percentage does the company pay?
We are trying to come up with what is fair for everyone without putting us out of business due to cost. We need more MTs for new contracts but cannot grow until our benefits are better. Catch 22.
I really would appreciate feedback. What other benefits do you get? Do you want?
Medware health insurance
Does anyone know how much the health insurance at Medware costs the employee for eimployee and spouse? Thanks
Pay and health insurance good.
Some of the QA who work for Precyse are the finest people this side of heaven. I couldn't keep up with my lines and what I had typed, so I moved on. Overall, a good company and they handle a lot of Baptist accounts with people you can understand.
health insurance deduction
Not OP, but self-employed health insurance premium deductions are now 100% deductible off adjusted gross on 1040 line 29 I think. I've been doing it for 5 years, the first year was only 40% deductible I think when my accountant did it and went up every year since then to 100% now. If you're not using that, you're missing a huge deduction if you're paying for insurance as an IC or SE.
Anyone know what company OSI's health insurance is through?
TIA
Who has decent health insurance?
I just got notice from TransHealth that they are changing our (already sucky) insurance in two weeks to an even suckier plan. I cannot afford a $1000 deductible. If I had that lying around, I wouldn't need to work!!!
Is there any company out there with a decent FAMILY healt insurance plan that won't cost $1000 a month in premiums?? I have 10+ years of acute care and multispecialty experience with 99% accuracy. Why can't I insure my family!?
Health insurance at TransTech? sm
Anyone willing to tell me what they pay for their health insurance plan through TransTech? I just had a great offer from Keystrokes that I guess I am going to have to turn down because their health insurance plan costs more than I can get one for on my own! bummer disappointment! So I am going to pursue Transtech but don't want to end up in the same boat again....TIA.
if you are talking about health insurance you should
get a packet with your ins. cards in teh mail really soon. they usually dont mess around. if you havent recieved a packet...then i would definitley be worried. same thing happend to a company that my husabnd used to work for and we never got our premiums back....
Health insurance option
Consider the IC at 9 cpl without benefits and no ESL. Obtain health, life, and dental insurance other routes....like try ehealthinsurance.com. More options there. 7 cpl isn't great if your dealing with a large amount of ESLs.
Keystrokes - Health Insurance
I think I remember that Keystrokes is supposed to be getting new health insurance that will be less expensive. Can any Keystrokes employees tell me what is going on with that? Do you have it yet? How much is it a month? I am considering a job at Keystrokes but I need the health insurance benefit, preferably low cost. Thanks for replying.
