not paying for life or dental
Posted By: un on 2008-11-17
In Reply to: JLG no longer paying Dental or life - wonder what's next?!?!
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!

JLG no longer paying Dental or life
first direct deposit now this??? scary!!!
Yes, medical, dental, vision, and life
nm
When I am renting, I am PAYING; when I'm working, THEY are paying ME. sm
Seems I should be running a credit check on the potential employer to see if THEY are responsible with their money, not the other way around.
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.

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.
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.
DSGs dental insurance
Does the dental insurance that DSG offers have a $1000 annual limit on amount of payout?
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

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.
Dental is thru Metlife (good coverage). sm
Platform is their own, uses ShortHand for expander.
I paid 80 per pay period without eye or dental coverage. nm
nm
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
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!
Dental is Metlife; medical is BCBS w/medication plan sm
$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.
401K - no matching.
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.
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.
I think it starts at 90 days; Blue Cross Blue Shield. Delta dental. nm

RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!
Nasty, rude, unprofessional.
I spent most days watching TV because there was supposedly no work, and when I quit they screwed me out of the money that they agreed to pay to ship their equipment back.
EVIL
You need to get a life.....
I guess you had a bad experience, but that says nothing for the more than 400 MTs who are happy at OSi. I don't understand why you spend so much time running down a company instead of being a productive citizen. What you give comes back to you in the future. NEGATIVE, NEGATIVE, NEGATIVE.....I hope you are happy in your life because the reflection here shows some real issues you probably need to work on.
Get a life.
I too have "worked" for them, as a slave I might add. I work my tail off and do not get paid what I should. You, apparently a company suck up, get paid what you deserve. Some of us do not. You are not in the know. I am looking elsewhere as we speak because I cannot and WILL NOT take it any more. Get a life. It is not just me as other people have the same complaints. Unless you WALK in our shoes just SHUT UP.
You must have no life. No wonder lol

me get a life?
ha ha ha ha. That's original!! Spelling police?? You have such an original way with words!!!! Things that make you go hmm? What year was that? I am so laughing and laughing.
Sure, but I have a life too..
get a life
.
You are the one with no life
I have not been on this site cheerleading for this lousy company for the past year.
Get a life...
You don't know me from a can of paint. You don't know the OP either, so get over yourself. CHEERS!
you think i have a life?
hah!, work, eat, walk 2 miles and do it again :) but really, its fun still. i never even filled out any 'stuff' about me really. but when you get 30 or more people on there that have a little something to share, it doesn't feel like we're boring !!
Run for your life!
The cornerstone platform is the worst I have ever worked on. I have just found another job and will be leaving in about 2 weeks. Keep looking, you will find a better company.
set for life
Wow, I know that when I went to school and got started doing this job, I didn't think I wouldn't being doing it for a good company. I wasn't educated on scam artists, and thief's in this business. I never start any job thinking I am going to do a half XXX job, and leave work undone and so yeah, I put in all the hours that it required to get the job done, I didn't get paid for my work, I got ripped off. I am not a negative person, I set out to be successful, happy, and yes SET for life. I'm sorry that you don't agree with that, but that is why people have 401K plans,and retirement funds and buy a house.
take over your life is right.
I spend most of my day doing this work. They say come back later in the day when there is work. You get a few hours off, but you can't plan anything.
Oh, I DO have a life
A quite wonderful life, because I do WHAT I HAVE TO DO TO EARN AN INCOME TO KEEP MY FAMILY AFLOAT.
I don't post on here to complain that wow, my job is so wonderful that I just HAD to waste interviewers' time and perhaps push another NEEDY MT out of the running but I had to turn down a job because it required I work a weekend day.
Get a grip. The post was complaining/whining/whatever you choose to call it. If you're in a position to turn down a 'wonderful' job, more power to you, but don't get on here and complain about having to do so.
The only objection I have is that she should have put the name of the 'wonderful' company so someone willing to work and put in the hours and schedule could have applied.
Perhaps YOU need to get a life...a life where you have bills to pay, are the sole breadwinner, and don't waste the time of MTSOs and try to push other MTs out of the running for apparently kicks and giggles, since she's so happy at her current job.
Sometimes I'm totally amazed by the ignorance on this board and whom people choose to side with or against. Guess it must depend on the lunar cycle or something.
*Eye roll*
That is exactly where I am at with my NO life. Thinking about what to do now.
:
To: Get a life, at Transcend.
Not sure if you saw the post below or not, but I'm looking for extra pointers on how to make the 20K lines per pay period when the work load is low. I'm a fast typist, have lots of entries in my expander and even have a lot of files already formatted with jumps in them to save time. I work during my regular schedule leave the downloads on automatic so that I can type when the work comes in. I've been working different shifts at different times, but still can't do it. How do you do it? Do you have to work more than your 8-hour shift to get the 20K when the work load is low?
Ummmm...a life maybe???????

Welcome to REAL life!
Working 40 hours for benefits is not a NEW concept. MTs have long done themselves a great disservice by balking at change.
You still have the benefit of earning more dollars, but MTs are FINALLY become like REAL employees. You know where you have to work the hours to get the perks???
If you're doing 30 hours, slow down and do 39. Problem solved.
OR
Go to school to become a P.A. where, I hate to tell ya, they're going to want you to work 40 hours.
Story of my life
ESL city!!! I got to the point where I just couldn't take any more. Other than Bonnie Monico who is top notch and a sweetie, it was a rather horrible little experience for me.
live s/b life (nm)
That is definitely NOT true..... get a life!

get a life, loser
The company is certainly better off without you so the owner's instinct of your worthlessness has been validated by your own rhetoric.
