When you leave a company, is your insurance canceled immediately?

I'm assuming I'll still be getting my premium taken out of my check up to the end, so does the insurance go til the end of the month? Want to make sure my daughter's dentist visit in Oct is covered, and 2 weeks notice would put me into October but I wonder if I should wait until after her appt for my last day. Does anyone know?
Oh yeah.... I got a new job!!! I got a new job!!!

Keystrokes' insurance was not canceled. They are looking for better rates and coverage sm
in more states as Unicare is not in every state. I have Unicare with them and while it is a little on the high side IMO, it is less than what my husband's non-MT job offers for our family of 5.
They are not working on it long after their insurance is canceled. They are working to change, which can be done at any time although preferably at the beginning of a year or quarter.
And by the way, your grapevine is not that great. You should check facts before posting something that makes it look like they don't have any insurance.
I'd see a red flag immediately if a company sm
waited a year to test me. From everything you said, it sounds like this company is desperately trying to fill a quota of US MTs to land/keep this account. Anyone born in the USA would do. If you were sincere in not wanting to work for companies that offshore, you should say so clearly right at the start and not go through all the traveling, testing, and ironing! I'm sorry this turned out to be such a negative for you. Best to do research beforehand.
Anyone leave MQ for another company?
I know there was a mass exodus of MTs from MQ over the last few months. I have been trying to stick it out, but I'm not sure how long that's going to last!! There are so many pro's and con's to most companies that advertise on here.
Has anyone left MQ and regretted their decision? Is the grass really greener elsewhere, or is it all in your perspective? I have 11 years invested with this company, and I would hate to throw all that away for something that is just OK, or not even as good.
Thanks for any info, good or bad!

Why did you leave the former company?
They are causing me to leave the company they all went to

Put the company in a bad place and leave now.
:+
Hated it enough to leave a company
that couldn't take the time to use it right. When a company USES it properly, it is not too bad. When they don't bother to have the doc's office fill in the necessary information and then not bother to build the necessary data bases, it is real hard to earn a living.
Why did you leave that "good company" TT
Which company did you find better than TT?
So it is ok to attack a company once you leave as long as
you do not hurt your paycheck while working for them? That is childish and immature. We are supposed to be professionals. If there is a true problem, an MT should post about it but the unnecessary nastiness on this board goes above and beyond any sense of reason.
Instead of actual warnings, these bashers take it to extremes that make others ignore their constant nastiness.
Survey - how does your company do with maternity leave?
I am contemplating trying to get pregnant within the year, and I am wondering how all the MTSOs take to maternity leave. I am afraid if I get pregnant, my company might find a way to get rid of me before having to cover my maternity leave. Any advise or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
Is Keystrokes a big company or small? I am thinking of applying. Time to leave the Q. nm
The sad thing is that I do not even think they would notice if I left. I am a high producer but not very vocal and they seem to have forgotten about me :(
If you know who the insurance company
is, contact them. If that is who you have been calling, contact HR at your company. SOmetimes it does take a while to get the cards, as long as you have the information on the insurance company you can give to treating facility, if you need it, you should be covered.
Anyone know what company OSI's health insurance is through?
TIA
Insurance question. The company SM
I now work for has something called consumer driven insurance.
I would like to know the names of MT companies that offer HMO or PPO. I do not care what the premiums are; just if they offer regular health insurance and not the above-mentioned type.
Please help. Thank you.
Just dealt with that with my insurance company
Makes me insane!! Health insurance issues are pretty important to me, especially when the bills are a couple thousand dollars. It would be nice to be able to understand what they are saying and be understood!
Looking for a company with affordable health insurance.
Anybody work for Proscript or DSG, can you tell me how much you pay for husband and wife coverage? Thanks so much.
I like the insurance they have now. It is cheaper than the one that my husband's company has. s
They have been trying to get new insurance for over a year but do not have the participation requirement filled, as they have let everyone know. However, I spoke to a manager who told me that the one that they have been working on since December looks good, just taking longer than expected as they keep asking questions.
We have insurance through my husband's company and this year
our premium was only raised $3.00 and our benefits were improved.
If you have pre-existing conditions you don't have lots of options, but there are lots of other options available otherwise.
Great company and they pay employee insurance. nm

Need a company that takes out taxes and has insurance
I can't be an independent contractor because my husband is self employed. One of us needs to pay for taxes and insurance. Anybody know of some companies that do this that I could check out?
Oh really? What company do they carry their insurance with? Thinking of applying there.

Anyone know of a GOOD company with affordable health insurance?
Hi. I am a 14+ year MT. I love the company I am with but they offer NO benefits whatsoever. Does anyone know of a company that is looking for a dependable MT that offers reasonably priced health insurance and would give at least 9-1/2 cents a line (which is what I am getting now). Any help would be greatly appreciated. THANK YOU!
We all had to call in to the new insurance company last week. I was told that it will be sm
around $250 per single and that KS will be picking up a large portion.
family plan insurance - which company has the best prices? sm
pathetic and true -- I'm basing my decisions on that :( i just can't spend 1200 a month on insurance. HELLLP.
I have insurance through them. It is Unicare. It is less than what my husband's company charges
It is high though, $487 per month for myself, my husband and 2 kids. DH's job wanted $940 per month.
Sorry..I meant to say I called into the insurance company but forgot to ask about rates! (nm)
Survey - What type of medical insurance does your company offer?
Just curious about which company you work for and what type of medical insurance they offer. HMO, PPO? Cheap or expensive for you?
Does any company offer insurance to part'time employees? nm

Seeking company that offers good benefits including insurance.
Ideally, I'd like to find a company that offers medical insurance at a reasonable cost for family (under $500 a month) and a decent line count rate. Anyone have any ideas on this. Thanks.
High insurance costs are a national problem, not just in MT. My husband's company sm
charges us $210.00 per paycheck for him, me and our 2 children. The deductible is $500, each visit costs us $25, prescriptions are $10 for generic and $25 for everything else. It is getting crazy everywhere.
Gosh..does this company start with an F. In any event, you need to double check with your insurance
provider to see the exact date the policy was cancelled. Sometimes, companies have to pay preminums ahead of time. I would just make sure and if they are still taking the money out, you need to send a certified letter telling them to return your money at the point you were paid up and the policy cancelled or reinstate the insurance. Why pay for something your not getting.
Are you saying that you are immediately
no message
You will get set up immediately with
no problems and they are the best company I have worked for as far as helping solve problems immediately.
The one immediately above us. nm
I would be looking for another job immediately...sm
Good luck on the matter.
Sure, we will all email you immediately. Are you really
ewwwwww!!
If it was me, I would have told them no way immediately. nm
You showed great restraint.
I quit immediately.
You got paid for the straight typing, no templates.
They advertise quite a lot and that's probably the reason why!
Need ananswer immediately, please!!
On Friday of last week, I drove almost 100 miles to an interview that was supposed to be a subcontractor position. I was asked to come in for the day and type some reports to get familiar with the account and to see if I wanted to do it. I drove the 100 miles, typed for the company. Keeping in mind that I was a subcontractor and could work and quit when I wanted, I decided to give it a try. As soon as I got home, she called and wanted me to work on Saturday to get the hospital caught it. So, I transcribed on Saturday. Then, I received a call on Sunday requesting that I type. So, I typed on Sunday. I got phone calls all day yesterday, Monday, pleading that I work and the hospital is seeing that I am logged on, but no work is coming in. The work was not coming in because I received Japanese/Chinese discent dictators and it literally took me an hour a report. I received calls all day long. To work, change things, work more, and I was told now that I was their go-to girl and needed me to work, work, work. I could not log off because I would get calls. So, today, which is Tuesday, their system broke down and when they finally fixed it, guess what, they needed me to work an additional 8 hours. This was after I got up early to work, but due to their system break down, I was hours behind. After listening to 3 messages on my answering machine, I sent an email telling her I have accepted another position. Four hours after I sent her the email, she called me up and asked why I was not working for her and that she is going to lose her account. I asked her if she got my email. SHE SAID SHE GOT MY EMAIL, BUT DID NOT REALIZE I WAS NOT WORKING FOR HER ANYMORE. How ridiculous is this? She said she needed me to log on now because I was her go-to girl and she was going to lose her account. I am exhaused, but she needs me until Friday or she will lose her account. I am a subcontractor. Also, I signed no papers and she could shaft me for my money if I stay. WHAT SHOULD I DO? SHOULD I LOG IN AND WORK UNTIL FRIDAY AND HOPE SHE PAYS ME OR JUST MOVE ON? She sounded desperate, but she has worked me out all ready.
I quit immediately, too.
It won't be a blip on the radar of D's sell-out, unfortunately, but at least I know I did the right thing for myself and my belief system/ethics.
Congratulations to us, and anyone else who is in a position to do the same!
I heard back immediately
I got a one sentence email saying I didn't have enough experience. Must be pretty difficult work. I have been typing all work types for 19 years, especially psych and radiology..the two on the list. I have also done ESL in every job I have ever been employed. Oh well, asked her to keep my name in the barrell!
start immediately to think about ESLs........
nm
I too made quota immediately
!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was immediately offered a position with
Webmedx after the interview. I didn't have to test based on my experience and score on the verbal testing.
If you applied through TransHealth they still seem to be operating as two separate companies and dealing with a different group of people. I applied to them before the merge and I never heard from them after submitting my resume.
Stop typing immediately....and see what happens.
They'll be blowing your phone up. Tell them, when they put your check in the bank, you'll start back typing, because you don't type for free. They gave you a date you will get paid and they should honor that. In the meantime, be looking for something else.
You are right. I am going to implement this title immediately. Thank you very much! nm

I would immediately eliminate Focus.
It is Indian run, low pay, and constant turnover. I haven't heard much good about Diskriter either, though certainly better than Focus. KS is good for some, not for others. It wasn't a good fit for me. Axolotol pays better than any of them, better benefits. The account they are hiring for has a high percentage of very challenging ESL dictators. The company itself is great though.
All of you should stop working immediately so that they can see how valuable
you are. Let them work it out then.
docking $10 per report for mistakes. I immediately sent in

This discussion will cease immediately. You are WAY off base. We do not
cater to any company in the manner you describe just because a company may be a sponsor. The reason that we remove content about ANY company is when posters use this site as a sounding board of their complaints posting to the point where the thread flames. At that point, I will remove the thread and tell posters to take discussion to email until things settle down.
If you have problems with a company, you need to take it up with them. Sounding off on this forum about the inner workings of any company is innapropriate. Posters need to use tact when posting.
Many of you know me well enough by now that I would not remove posts just because some MTSO tells me to.
