Dental is Metlife; medical is BCBS w/medication plan sm

In Reply to: Webmedx Questions - MamaMT
$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.

Platform is their own, uses ShortHand for expander.
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.
Yes, medical, dental, vision, and life

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.
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.
I have medical, dental, and vision at TransTech for about $72 per pay period. nm
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.
How is Transcend/MDI's medical insurance plan for employees?
Thanks
Have you taken your medication today?
Settle down.
Have you considered medication?
For your Joan of Arc complex?
Can you ask MetLife who you can contact? SM
Maybe the Securities and Exchange Commission? To file a report....it is highly improper for a company to not forward the contribution monthly/quarterly. Something is wrong and it's not with any paperwork. Smells like Medware has trouble with mismanaging funds.
BCBS
I have a private policy through BCBS and pay 350/month for a family of 4.
Don't worry just find out and then have a plan A and plan B
I have gone through something like this but not with that company. I too am the insurance provider for my family and there are preexisting conditions, so a private policy is no good.
First of all, I work elsewhere but had the same situation. I fell short of line count, but not because of me, because they did not have enough work, and I like many others cannot make quota because of the way they count lines. Then, on last paycheck there was a negative on insurance money taken out of check. I thought I lost insurance, but found out at the end of the year, they did an audit and found out that I overpaid all year and so I actually was owed money that check.
In the meantime, I found another job but have to wait 90 days for insurance. Can't find a policy to bridge the 2 jobs, insurance is on my mind all the time. My heart is with you. Personally I am getting the 90 day meds, working on my second job which will become my real job and if I lose the insurance, Cobra will kick in in case of disaster so that is like major medical.
Sorry such a long post, but I suggest: Not to panic. You probably did not lose insurance. Call the benefit provider to see you are still covered, not the employer. If you are not still covered, get 90 days of Rx if your plan covers by mail and be billed, immediately get another job which is a better place to work anyway (I found one) and in 90 days you will be okay. Some places like Disriter cover the first of the following month, but I would not necessarily suggest you work somewhere which is not so great just for insurance. You can consider TransTech. That would be my suggestion. Sorry for such a long post. But this hit a nerve and I wanted you to understand some options, as I have gone through it. Good Luck.
Regarding your insurance: BCBS sm
for an individual in your age group for $300 a month and only a $250 deductible sounds pretty good!
Re #3, you need not mention the fit at all if you're looking for an at-home position. If asked, just mention they were happy with your work. We at-home MTs don't do phones!
Good luck to you!
oops, s/b BCBS
BCBS PPO at Webmedx
nm
Who offers BCBS?
What MT employers offer BCBS?
BCBS - Webmedx
BCBS silver or gold plans.
I have BCBS individual policies for myself and
my last home-living son. When all my children were still at home, they had individual policies that they could take with them.
It was cheaper for me to do buy each of us an individual policy and know that I can keep us insured 100% of the time regardless of whether I changed jobs or not.
The plan I chose for ours has a $5000 major medical deductible but we have not ever had to use hospitalization and I can pay out $5000 one way or another. Office visits are covered 100%. That was my main concern as I wanted the routine items covered. I can handle facing the other big ticket items. I also wanted the lowest premium possible. It was a great bargain for us.
You google to get BCBS #, call and tell them you

90 days/Highmark BCBS
Webmedx offers BCBS
Not too expensive (cheapest family coverage I have found). Coverage good, except labs are not covered :(
BCBS customer service number sm
Can someone email me with the BCBS customer service number for health insurance through Webmedx? I am thinking of signing on with them but want to ask them a question about coverage first.
Thanks!
Any companies hiring with BCBS as the insurance?
If there are, do they pay well? By well I mean 9-10 cpl.
Webmedx has BCBS and some accts pay that rate, more with incentives. sm
Plus we have shift differentials too.
It was a web-inar showing how to use the BCBS insurance site, mostly. sm
Talk to HR if you need more help. It was presented by BCBS, not our HR group. Showed how to access your account, benefit stuff online.
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.

And good dental too! nm

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?
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!
Webmedx offers PPO and good dental. nm

JLG no longer paying Dental or life
first direct deposit now this??? scary!!!
I paid 80 per pay period without eye or dental coverage. nm

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 think it starts at 90 days; Blue Cross Blue Shield. Delta dental. nm

new MQ pay plan
It's been in QNews, snail mail and on MQ's home page under the QNET as promised by Frank for the last six mths.
What do you like about this new MQ plan?
I would just love to know what people like about this new plan because the way I see it they are not paying for your internet service anymore which is essential to getting this job done and they are not offering any kind of weekend incentives which is when they are always begging people to work and also, the part that really is laughable is even if you are part time and say work 15 hours a week and want to work 20 instead one week you have to get that approved. Now, they are always begging people to work so why do we have to get approval to work extra. I can understand over 40 hours but if you are part time what is the big deal. As long as you put your hours in that you are supposed to, why do we have to go through the trouble of calling our supervisors and asking to work an extra hour or so.
I don't see much of any kind of incentives in this new plan. I mean if you type over 1200 - you get a small increase. Say you type 1500 well you would make an extra $1.50 that day. What kind of incentive is that?
I just don't get it. Maybe I am missing something and people can explain to me what they like about it. I would LOVE to hear it.
new plan
There is nothing to like
well i DO like the new plan
It adds up to a lot of $ to have 18 days PTO at production rate vs. 10 days, plus now the 6 holidays at time and one-half. The difficulty premium adds another level of fairness and compensation to the skill tier.
As far as part-timers having to ask to work an extra hour or two -- where do you read that? i went back and looked and see that your option is to work between 8-39 hr a week -- if it requires permission, i guess i missed it. I can see where it would help in scheduling and TATs though.
As far as the lack of I/N payment now, that's not a plus, BUT you CAN claim it on your taxes along with your books, etc.
It may not be an exciting plan for those who have limited skills and just can do the easy stuff, but for me, it works well enough.
