In Reply to: Regarding the MQ new pay plan for SE that is to come out, does anyone know or at least think that - Concerned
No one knows anything yet, so it's all just speculation. The last time they changed the pay structure (when they started offering employee status) I got a slightly better line rate and started getting quarterly bonuses as an SE, so I'll just hope that it's a good change this time, too.

My speculation is that it's....sm
probably a plan that promises you'll receive a discount for health services - sorta like there are some dental plans out there that supposedly offer you a percentage discount. If this is true then it's not an actual insurance policy and therefore there's no enforcement by any state agency as well as there is no guarantee that any physician who supposedly signs up today to offer a discount will honor that discount tomorrow as they could come/go with any plan at any time.
If you call ask that they send you written verifiable information about any physicians and hospitals that supposedly participate, and by "verifiable" I mean that you actually call the hospital, pharmacies, some of the doctors on the list and ask them directly if they are indeed participants.
Honestly, the MQ speculation is
getting so bad about the what if's with the new packages coming out in October and all the speculation, I had this comic flash of all the suits sitting in NJ with headphones on, plugged in,to the big PC's in corporate land just listening to all the "chatter" on the boards...sorta like the CIA supposedly was...can you imagine all the chatter traffic going on until October?
We just need to take a deep breath, try to relax a bit, really nothing we can do until October, then who knows what part of the month we'll all get our packages?
Believe me, it has worried me to no end, single mom, can't afford much more change, but also can't do a darn thing about it till then.
and nothing but pure speculation.......
Lots of speculation on that.
My personal opinion is that new things will be opening up in editing, and there will still be MTing. After all, we are creating EHRs when we transcribe. Basically, the difference is that it stays in a computer instead of printed files.
This is idle speculation, unless you know what else they have contracted
to do besides straight MT typing of the report only. There are so many other services to the client that can be rolled into that line rate that it is very silly to make assumptions based on the little bit of information this linked reference gives us.
