You can keep them through COBRA for a limited time but you must pay a large portion of the monthly premiums. It is important to contact the HR office about this as soon as possible after losing your job, so your coverage will continue.

Q&A: Whats the average medical transcription salary working from home?

Question by mspice: Whats the average medical transcription salary working from home?
I am asking people who actually have been medical transcriptionists, who can personally say how much they made because I am going to get certified in medical transcribing. . .

Best answer:

Answer by Judy
Without at least a couple years experience, you aren’t likely to find medical transcription work from home. People who do that type of work at home are usually doing it for a facility where they worked in their offices and their bosses now allow them to work at least some of the time from home.

What is the medical exam and questions for life insurance like?

Question by red_grad: What is the medical exam and questions for life insurance like?
We are looking into life insurance. I am wondering what the medical exam and questions are like? How much more typically is it if you have a medical issue (like high blood pressure) compared to if you have good health? We are in our late 20′s.
I forgot to add, do they only ask your current health for the last 6 months to a year? Or is it your whole health history? I ask because let’s say the high blood pressure has been normal for the last 6 months to a year… will they still consider this in their pricing?

Best answer:

Answer by jlf
Whole history. Health questionaire, permission for access to medical records, physical exam.

Q&A: How hard would medical school be for a physicians assistant?

Question by Charlie: How hard would medical school be for a physicians assistant?
I go to Ohio State University and have a 3.6 gpa and im a paramedic. I wasn’t excepted into medical school but I got into PA school. Was thinking about doing the whole pa thing for a few years then going to medical school.

Best answer:

Answer by answerman
You really shouldn’t waste your time and money going to PA school, it will probably be around 100k in debt to go to PA school and a couple years longer before you get to medical school, then to turn around and go another couple hundred thousand for medical school…doesn’t make much sense. I suggest you continue working as a medic and then apply to more medical schools next year if that is what you want to do.

How to take medical insurance for foreigners in short term visa in Japan?

Question by sangeetha g: How to take medical insurance for foreigners in short term visa in Japan?
My mother in law is here in Japan on a short term visa(3 months). She had sprained her hand in India while coming here and is bothering her a lot. We heard that it would be very costly in the hospitals without medical insurance. As she might need to take xray and other medicines. We would like to know how we can take medical insurance for foreign nationals on short term visa in Japan. I thank u in advance for answering my query.

Best answer:

Answer by Seiryū
I’d suggest that you call the embassy of your country in Japan.
I’m not sure what policies Japan has about foreigners in Japan, but I would think that you would have to get insurance from your own country or at least through your country you could ask about this?
