Webmedx has pretty good benefits sm

The benefits at Webmedx are pretty good. You are eligible for benefits after 90 days. I am paying about $400 per month for a family plan for health, dental, and vision. The coverage is pretty good for general visits and pharmacy, but there is either a $1000 or $2000 deductible (depending on which plan you choose) for hospitalization, after which insurance pays 80% and you pay the rest. There is also a deductible for certain medical supplies. My son is a type 1 diabetic and we have to pay a $1000 deductible for his insulin pump supplies. Not the best insurance that I've ever had, but it is much cheaper than what my husband can get through his work (he would have to pay $1000 per month in premiums for a family plan).

MDI florida, pretty good benefits,
transcription super, Debbie, very easy to work with, down-to-earth. Pay 10 cpl if you have Meditech experience for acute care/radiology. Saw in one post where they were willing to train. Worth looking into. I work for them, good company so far.
Good benefits at Webmedx - sm
medical, vision, dental, life and disability insurance; PTO and holidays. Lots of work, you use their equipment. ESL - that may be more of an issue. But it doesn't hurt to find out what is open at this time. Good luck to you. I was outsourced from my hospital job about 10 years ago and feel lucky to have ended up at Webmedx.
Webmedx is great for me; good benefits, sm
PTO, reasonable insurance cost. Plenty of work, decent platform (although we had some trouble last week but that's rare). I realize one company can't be right for everyone, but Webmedx has been great for me. 8 years and counting.
Pretty low-level pay and benefits. I had 6 offers and

Pretty low line rate, mediocre benefits. I had to turn

Does anyone recommend a pretty good company that is good to work for, pay always on time and plenty
of work. I know that is asking a lot, but just curious?
Webmedx comes pretty close...sm
to meeting your requirements. They do have a fair amount of ESL and I doubt you could get a M-F schedule, but everything else they can and do offer.
Webmedx work pretty low. Typical for this time of year? sm
I'm fairly new, so just wondering. Having come from the evil Q, it makes me nervous. While at the Q and a couple other companies, this is not the time of year I typically ran out of work--Christmas, T-giving, 4th of July, yes, now, no. Thanks.
Webmedx Benefits
Does anyone know what kind of benefits and cost that Webmedx offers?
Does anyone know how much the benefits are at WebmedX?
I need the cost of employee + 1 child. Also, what insurance carrier are they with and what are the deductibles/copays like?
Webmedx benefits
Does anyone know if webmedx have a good benefits package (401k) and steady work? How about vacation time? Even if there are pros and cons, I would appreciate the info.
Webmedx benefits
Anyone start with Webmedx in the last month or so and know how long it takes for benefits to kick in? Old timers told me 30 days but recruiter said 90 and very little PTO in the first year. Is this a new thing?
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.
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.
MQ does and Webmedx has benefits for 35 hours. Bet there are more 2. nm
.
Webmedx offers benefits for FT MTs; not sure sm
how many years of experience you must have but I'd think 7-8.5 cpl to start for acute care, if you can do ops. Plus there's a bonus / incentive package for shift differential and weekends.
Good company, great people, good benefits.
Affordable insurance. Good luck!
I am very happy at Webmedx and love their benefits. SM
We have 4 little girls, so benefits were very important to us. Very good coverage, low copays and deductibles. Good luck :-)
Medware or Webmedx? Which is better in terms of accounts and benefits?
I am trying to decide which company to apply with. I also need flexiblility. I can work full-time hours but not the same shift every day and I know some companies want a set schedule every day. I work a lot of weekends.
Webmedx - Benefits and Full-Time Status
I'm a bit surprised that I haven't seen any posts regarding the new requirements to be considered full time at Webmedx beginning in 2009 -- 40 hours per week rather than the previous 35 per week.
I guess it doesn't surprise me completely, but I'm not all that happy about it. An extra hour a day of work isn't high on my list of activities I want to add to my day. I already have a hard time fitting everything in.
Anyone else want to share their feelings about it?
Pretty good
They are really flexible on my shift. I am working a split shift until school starts in the fall. But, all in all I think I like getting my shift done in one setting. The hospital that I work has very few ESLs too. I am happy so far. I would recommend them to work for.
Pay is pretty good but.....
I worked for them for about 2 months (all I could handle). The pay was decent (I was getting 8.5) but the account I worked was completely horrible. So many ESLs that you could never make production. They were not the nicest people either. Not much help with problems and little to no flexibility in scheduling. It just was not for me. I think that there are a lot of people who like them and that is great. It just was not the right fit for me.
Seem to be pretty good.
Benefits are decent. Family coverage is under $500. Acute care pay is good. Clinic not the best, but not the worst either. VR pay hasn't been worked out yet. Great supervisor (at least mine was). Mandatory OT was my only downfall. Overall, pretty decent to work for, though I have only had 1 other employer, so not much to compare to.
I am pretty good with the PC, but now you
What a joke! You grow up! My main course of duty is the content of the frikkin report and not whether or not my PC is compatible with your crappy MT software that you swear is MT friendly! Cut me a frikkin' break!
Okay, I'm done.
Yes there is! Good pay and good bonuses and good benefits.
Amphion pretty good, uh?
Do they let you work 6 hours a day if you can get 2200+ lines a day -- instead of 8 hours to be considered full time status? If not, do you know who does?
Company is pretty good except...
for the last several weeks there has been a problem with work shortage on several of the accounts on the new platform. When you have four accounts you work on and you have no work that kind of makes you wonder. Other than that, the people are very nice, the pay is decent, and they have good benefits. For me it is just the work load issue. They say they have not overhired, but just makes you wonder. I think you made good decision, just make sure they give you more than one backup account, as I have no idea what platform they hired you for or what accounts.
What is the pretty good grapevine?
Quit trying to stir up trouble and post your sources that are so great.
Interesting. She's actually been pretty good to me
I'd follow her somewhere new if I had the offer.
For someone not trying to be a smart A, you did a pretty good job of it anyway. sm
Showing that they care means not ignoring my requests for a third account. I have worked other places and had up to 4 accounts and when work was low, I was still able to make 2000 lines a day by bouncing back and forth between all of them.
Sending me an email ackowledging that volume is low, that the servers have down, etc., is all very nice as far as keeping me informed, but it does not pay my bills.
I wasn't asking for sympathy, but I also wasn't asking for your meanspirited retort. I merely vented here a bit, thinking (mistakenly) that I was among peers who would understand the panic that I feel.
Pretty good company
aside from their pea green web-site.
OSi, pretty good to work for (sm)
But the insurance is expensive at least for family coverage. Work flow goes up and down, it just depends on the account. They give secondary accounts if primary account runs low. Everyone there is really helpful and nice for the most part.
As Tidewater they were pretty good
After they went to Imedx, a lot of the work went offshore. If you do work for them, be prepared to be pulled off your account at any time...be it that you find out you were just filling in and they never told you that, the work is going to the new system and is no longer available, etc. Used to pay by direct deposit, but that was very frequently not there when it was supposed to be.
Overall they are pretty good but they could improve
the payroll department. Seems to be a lot of errors, you get your lost money eventually but they seem to take their sweet time about it.
Their pay rate is pretty good........
BUT they do tend to run out of work. Everyone that I know, myself included, got started at 10 cpl for typing, 5 cpl for voice recognition. The PROBLEM is you do run out of work too often and they REQUIRE you to clock out when out of work and sit at your keyboard waiting for work. It is possible that you could work 8 hours and make only 20 bucks. So.....if the work was there I guess you could make a good living, but my personal opinion is not so much considering their work flow.
I have a pretty good idea but
let the brilliant Millie from below answer that. She's your TT gal.
WEBMEDX???? It's a small national, right? Benefits, running out of work, what kind of accounts,
flexible schedule (as in working EVERY weekend mandatory?
Any opinions on the company would be appreciated. Found some in the archives but all mostly from 2004 and 1 recent post but not much info. Thanks.
And if they're *pretty darned good* right now,
when you and you coworkers fix it so they're PERFECT, who's going to be editing these reports then?
Perhaps a better question is from what country will these people be editing these reports?
Pretty good from what I've heard...
A friend of mine works for them. Said they are strict on accuracy and line counts but are also somewhat flexible in schedule.
That's a pretty good glimpse at how they operate. SM
Very unorganized.
I have been with co for a long time. I have it pretty good, but new
xx
Not lots of ESLs and they are mostly pretty good. It is
the American dictators that are horrible, but there are other issues with the account.
Seems a pretty good place to work. SM
I do sometimes run out of work. So far, I only have 2 accts, but it seems when my primary is out, so is my secondary, so I'll be trying to pick up more accts. Compared to my past work, I do not find that they have high ESL, pretty normal. I am a level 4. I think they may have 5 levels. Pay seems okay, even better than most. Good luck.
This sounds like a pretty good deal, especially if....sm
you are making $$. You can always contribute to an IRA that will be tax deductible at end of year. Sometimes going to a company for the benefits doesn't pay off - ask me: I tried it twice in the past month, only to quit both jobs after about 1 payroll period as it became obvious that they either didn't know how to do payroll correctly, or that the lines weren't correct (even though they claimed to pay for hdrs/footers/spaces etc!).
I would sure like to know where you work - I'm an EXText-er myself and want just PT. Care to share???? Thanks!!
Hey, wages were even still good 5 years ago, now pretty much gone. nm

Management is good, benefits are good
As with most places, familiarity and building your templates is the key to lines. I never run out of work but, on the other hand, I said in my hiring interview that I had been through a series of good companies but where I was constantly running out of lines and so that was a huge priority for me, and they have honored their promise to keep me in full-time work. Insurance is cheap and good. PTO starts accruing from day 1. Holiday leave comes out of your PTO, but you earn 3 or more weeks a year (based on your lines typed) and they don't insist that you work it. I had Thanksgiving, Christmas eve, and New Year's day off for the 1st time in (seems like) forever! I would say, in all honesty, that the only thing I don't like is that I have to go to another page to check my lines but that takes a few seconds and is more of an inconvenience than anything.
Webmedx hires some ICs. Good company. So sorry for your loss. Good luck!

Oracle is a pretty good company to work for but,
their home-grown software makes it difficult to get a good line count.
$7/hour is pretty darn good, I was making
the MT inexperience, as the inexperienced is all they are able to hire. Seasoned MT's know better than to go there.
Seems 11 cpl is pretty high, good luck finding that one
Keep us updated please.
I have a pretty good list. Any comments/corrections welcome. This is just from
what I have seen over the past few years in terms of growth, size and national accounts.
I put them alphabetical rather than size as I am not 100% on a few. There are 11 instead of 10 too.
This also leaves off a few that only have U.S. Editors with all work done offshore.
If I am missing any, I apologize. These are companies that I have seen at AHIMA, in magazines, on these boards, at AAMT, etc. I am not claiming perfection so I have omitted any, I apologize in advance.
