I am interviewing with this company for remote triage position. They do a pay per call rate versus an hourly rate. The health benefits are expensive. Is this a common thing for remote positions? I have only worked in call centers, where i get hourly wage and pretty good benefits. It would be nice to log into work after kids are put to bed! They are flexible with hrs and schedules.

Thx for any feedback!

I just heard of this company recently. Would love to hear more about your interview experience with them!

Interesting company. They have been in business for almost 20 yrs, but remote triage was started in 2004. They are canadian based, but have contracts through out all North America, so they need US nurses.

It sounds like a small company, nice people. They do not do an hourly wage. Its more of a pay per call, but they will pay you a minimum of 4 calls per hour if volume is down. They also have a call bonus plan (ex, you get X amount of dollars for over 100 calls per pay period and so forth). I spoke to a couple of the remote nurses that work for them. They say they do not have a problem hitting their call goals every payperiod and they seem happy.

The health insurance is expensive. I did not see a 401-k or retirement plan. They do supply you with a computer. The training is remote. They seem to be very open/flexible with what hrs you want to work, as long as you give a minimum of 20hrs per week. They of coorifice want the nurses to have tele triage experience.

They do have a website you may want to check out.

Thanks for the information! I don't have tele-triage experience but I do have lots of varied nursing experience.

You say the health insurance is expensive. How much is it and do you know what the co-pay is? Thanks for your help

Hi there,

I also am interested in applying to work for Fonemed. I was wondering if you could give me some info on how much the health benefits cost? Thanks in advance. Good luck & best wishes for your success w/the position.

Pay is 6/call

Forgive me for asking because I'm new to all of this, but what does 6/call mean? Also, can you tell me anything about the cost for insurance premiums?

Thanks so much!

six dollars per call triaged is their pay. I don't really have other info.

Thanks so much for all your help, G'smommy.

Does anyone have any information on Fonemed's insurance and how much the premiums cost?

Did you wind up getting the job with Fonemed? Is there anyone here that does work for Fonemed? This thread is dated, but I am curious.

I want to know also.
