What exactly is the benefit rate tied to?

I thought I was prepared for the benefit rate letter. As far as I could tell, my pay had been at least the same and once in a while actually a few dollars higher. So, how can my benefit rate go DOWN $1 PER HOUR??????????? I was prepared that it would not be higher, but I think this is just plain wrong. Like the other poster said - wouldn't I have noticed if I was making $80-88 per paycheck LESS (80-88 hours full time average at minus $1 per hour)?? What a bunch of hooey. ...

Are you kidding me? Now I am down to $10 an hour for my benefit rate. I pulled out all my old rates and it shows a steady decline. Seriously, it CAN'T be all me. I have dropped from $17.25 to $16.16 to 14.39 to 13.58 to 12.56 to 10.60 to now 10.00. Is everyone else going through the same? I type the same as I always have for years and years and years, the only change is this ASR which apparently is the death of me. ...

For those of us that are still hanging on by a thread, did your benefit rate fall? I just got my letter...lost another $1. I know that doesn't seem much but over the last few changes I have lost $5...just keeps going down. I guess I shouldn't care...I have had to use all of my PTO to make up time. I am probably going to be performance managed (or fired, not sure) because my CCM said we could clock in and out all day to keep from putting in NJA tickets (so we wou ...

How'd you do? (please no actual figures, just was it up or down). ...

Anyone know when a new benefit rate calculated? I have been earning this same crappy rate for at least 6 months even though I make double and almost triple the supposed "average lines per hour." I think I am getting ripped ...

I haven't gotten one yet. Hope that doesn't mean something bad! ...

Apparently they count work availability hours in your benefit rate calculation so you are getting dinged for not being able to work. If I can't work, I shouldn't be dinged for it IMO. That is why mine went down $3.00 an hour, lots of no work issues. ...

Did anyone receive notification of their benefit rate? The email send out in July said we were supposed to be notified no later than July 20 of our new benefit rate. I have never received any information. Thanks. ...

Just great. Even though it says on their little line count thing that I do 488 lines per hour, benefit rate goes down $3.00 an hour. I didn't do that many before so what gives MM? ...

They told me the amt I would get is the same as my benefit rate of four hours paid by mmodal so I guess I won't bother. It seems to be more of a pain than its worth. I will just take the benefit rate times four hours. Can't live on it but better than nothing. ...

Why do these companies think we have nothing better to do than read the company email even on our days off or after our shift is over. Never in all the years I have been working (and that is over 40) have I had a job where I was expected to be on call 24/7 and especially for this kind of treatment. We get MANDATORY READ AND REPLY emails at any random time, and management is ready to ream us a new one anytime we don't read them. Just because we work from home doesn't m ...

I have been on a conference call. I am a former transcender. I thought it was pretty clear that the QA and production incentives were not related to each other but people seem to be confused. What is the feeling on this? I thought it was pretty simple. ...

studying for a "Certificate in Electronic Medical Records?" I'm not sure coding is for me; it sounds like accounting, not my strong suit. Am having to switch gears from MT to something else soon. Thanks. ...

Has anyone received a letter about calculating your new benefit rate? I have had the same rate since probably last spring. I don't think they are calculating them every six months even though they say they do. I went on vacay in June and I am making the same benefit rate now that I was then. That was 8 months ago. I know for a fact that my benefit rate is now higher than it was then,maybe that is why. It is cheaper for them to keep it lower. ...

all stats way up...benefit rate way down. Going to have to do some digging and calling to see how they justified this current pay cut. But on the bright side, it makes me more determined than ever to get out of this mess. ...

On the job board. Sorry, but for some reason this cracks me up, especially since the company apparently doesn't offer any other traditional benefits like medical/dental etc. Is a swivel chair a hybrid vehicle, I wonder? ...

I was talking with some of my fellow MQians and the repository came up. Some people think that the repository was made so that the Indian workers can better understand their jobs. Now that I think of it I believe that is it so. What do you guys think? ...

I have only been getting approximately 25 hours a week. Yeah, I'm broke. Luckily I have a husband who works or I would be in a mess. Anyway, they have emailed me and said I have to have minimum 30 hours to continue to have medical ins. Well, if the work isn't there, what am I supposed to do? So, I asked my team lead to please give me a backup acct. So she has sent out requests to other team leads and said she would let me know if one replie ...

As you all may know, Nuance (formerly known as Focus) has acquired Encompass and OSI companies. So, we get this email today stating a company who formerly handled OSI's HR dept, payroll, benefits, etc. is going to now be handling ours (Nuance). Well as a result, we are going with a different ins company for health benefits. We previously had Blue Cross Blue Shield. I was paying approx. $450 a month for family coverage, and it was a good plan. Now, they are ...
