Can you tell me how long you have to wait before you qualify for insurance?
Thanks, and can I ask how many lines you do weekly (average) on their accounts? I noticed it has varied for me among diffent companies.
Transcend...how long of a wait for insurance?
Re: Wait period for insurance
I just wanted to clarify this and ensure that everyone has the correct information. The wait period for our insurance is 120 days. We review your status at 90 days to ensure that you are producing at full-time capacity and then if you are, you are sent the benefits info to sign up for whatever you're interested in. The benefits will start 30 days after that so it equates to 120 days.

I don't think I can wait that long!
I haven't talked to anyone from Amphion, but their web site info looks great, especially the make your own schedule and holidays being completely up to the MT.
How long to wait?
Recently I tested and passed with a national company that has had quite a few advertisements on this site recently. I immediately received an e-mail saying I had passed the test and when would be a good time for a telephone interview, which I answered...that was last Tuesday and I haven't heard anything. I'm sure their HR department is very busy, but how long should I wait to e-mail them again, or try to call? I really need this job and it's a good fit for my experience (PT). Don't want to be a pest, but don't want to fall through the cracks, either. Thanks!
Gone too. Finally, after long wait.
Too much BS. Either tons of emails, work, work, work for your incentive, not that you EVER see it in your paycheck. Send emails and get your ticket, automatic response, and never an answer from anyone who should answer. Pays promised one day and delivered 4 days later. Done with it and glad to be leaving. Poor management, poor communication, if any, and poor everything. RUN.
Who can afford to wait that long?
No way would I take such a job - what happens if they NEVER get paid? You work for free, that's what.
It's not common at all - you'd be better of getting your own accounts!
How long to wait to start new job?
I was offered a new job Monday and sent in the completed paperwork as required right away via fax. I got a welcome letter the same day. I have heard nothing since and did email once thanking them for the position and indicated I was ready to start immediately. Still, I have heard absolutely nothing since. How long should I wait to actually get started? I was told that they were growing and I could have as much work as I wanted. Any advice?
Pay is strange with a LONG wait...nm

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.
I couldn't wait to sign up for the insurance this year...
It was going to be cheaper than what we are paying now. Then I got the payment sheet and I was really disappointed. The rates are almost double as last year's rates.
The insurance I have now is cheaper even though their deductible is quite high and they don't pay for ER coverage. After finally talking my husband into going under TT's insurance (that alone took almost a year to convince him), now I have to tell him we're staying where we're at now....unless TT does find a better plan.
I will be waiting [im]patiently to see what they come up with.
I know Heartland makes you wait that long.

I wouldn't wait that long. If I cannot be on a regular
What are they paying, once a month? So, for the whole month of May, you draw pay on June 13th?
Not for me.
Call now. A week is certainly long enough to wait. nm

How long did you wait for training at Transcend?
Just wondering what the typical time frame is from install to training?
WTH do they wait so long? is it a form of torture?
lazy?!?!?!
Wait...let me guess. Shapin right? Can go for long without mentioning them!
If they are making the $ it is either because of working round the clock or whizzing through with poor quality. I am thinking whizzing through because in past postings they are very busy with posting negative things here. I make 4 cpl and listen to everything as required. I do well, but to do it right and be thorough you would not make big $ at 1.5.
Anyone tested and heard back from DTS America. How long was your wait? nm

may be good now, wait until they Global your account, too. I left there long ago, happy I did. nm

New insurance, huh? How long have they
been dangling the new insurance carrot for? Two or three years now? 
Long ago, an employer said we'd get insurance (sm)
and I started paying into it. But I never got any info, & was too young & dumb to follow up on it. About 7 or 8 months later I asked about it, and employer told me you have no insurance. When I said then I wanted the money back I'd been paying into it every month, she threatened to fire me over it. All I wanted was what was rightfully mine - either the money or the insurance. I later quit, but filed a claim with the state's LABOR BOARD, and not only won the suit & got my money back, but put her out of business as well.

Hi. Anybody who's ever worked for TransTech--how would you compare the health insurance they offer, versus that offered by other companies, e.g., say, OSi? Thanks muchly.

Ha! There was a spoof on SNL a long time ago, something like Dave's insurance. sm
I've been burned by insurance companies before, so I understand. 
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.
Diskriter or TransTech for insurance...sm
I'm curious about the insurance rates for a family of 4 for these 2 companies and if you can you make a decent wage to help pay for these insurance premiums? I worked at one place that had pretty good insurance but had a tough time making enough money to pay for it (and still pay my bills, etc). Any info would be great -- thanks!

Can anyone tell me who carries the major medical with these companies? Thinking of applying with both companies but want to know who they have their major medical with before I apply. TIA
Can someone please tell me how expensive Transtech insurance is.....sm

TransTech health insurance
Does anyone have info on family plan health insurance at TT. I have heard they have a few to choose from. I don't want to spend my time going through the whole testing process if all the options are outrageously expensive. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Is Transtech's insurance reasonable?
Just found out I have to buy error/omission insurance to remain IC. So long MDI.

TransTech - is their insurance affordable? How much do they contribute? sm
For family coverage, about how much is the monthly premium? Do they pay well? Do you have to work a set schedule or can you get your lines in within a 24-hour window? Thanks!

How long does it take TransTech to get back to you?
I have nearly 10 years experience. I sent them my resume over a week ago through their web site, have not heard a word. Is this the norm for them?
How long has Transtech been in existence? sm
Is it an established company greater than 5 years or a conglomerate of several smaller companies....

TransTech - how long does it take to get up to speed? (sm)
Different platforms, etc. can cause a little learning lag, about how long does it take and how patient are they as you build up production?

How long before you hear from TransTech?
If Transtech is interested in your resume, how long does it typically take to hear from them?
Transtech MTs, who long after you get hired does it
take to get your paper work. I accepted a position last week and still have not received it. Just wondering
TransTech health insurance rates for 2008
I thought I had found the perfect job in Transtech. My bubble just popped. Anybody else out there in cardiac arrest right now over the just published rates for open enrollment. As I need a family plan, unless they can come up with something quickly (she said they are searching for some better options), I will have absolutely no paycheck to speak of.
I hate to consider leaving, but it is a strong consideration!
How long does TransTech take to get back to you if you apply
It says a week or so on their site. I am assuming if you don't hear from them in that time frame they are not interested?
TransTech New Hires - how long for a response?
I sent my resume to the jobs e-mail as I couldn't get the link on the website to work. I didn't hear back so took the advice to call the office. I was told that the recruiter probably would not respond to anyone who hadn't tested. I took the test yesterday, resubmitted my resume, and left my number with the recruiter.
How long did it take you to get a response from TransTech? At this point I have spent a lot of time applying and don't know how to tell busy from not interested.
Question for long-term TransTech Transcriptionists
I have read so many wonderful things about this company, but no one seems to talk about cpl. I know what they offered me is about average for nationals, but I also was told they do not give raises. Is this really true. Does that mean if you are an excellent transcriptionist, and more reliable than normal, they would never give you a raise? That doesn't sound good to me. Would anyone care to say if they have gotten a raise while working there.
Your help is much appreciated.
You must not have been with Transtech long enough to see the lack of work periods. nm

With Transtech insurance, do you have to meet deductible before office visits are covered? nm

401k funds are protected by govt insurance similar to the insurance
that banks have (FDIC). It is safe even if the company goes under.
