There are so many companies and so many different reviews on each company, that it is hard to know good from bad. Anyway, the question I have for you is concerning insurance. I have a son who already has a medical history at 4 and I want to make sure I have coverage for him in the future. Is it better to use the coverage per assignment or pay the extra money per month and purchase my own insurance to maintain a steady coverage? If it s better to get outside insurance, is there any insurance you would recommend?
rent sports car I have always used the travel company s insurance, but I have minimal medical expense and have never had a child about whom I have to worry. Taking the travel company s insurance would probably be cheaper (even with the added expense of a family plan), but might lead to gaps in coverage if you were not taking back to back assignments. In choosing a travel company, have them send you an info packed on their insurance coverage BEFORE you consider traveling with them. Since this is such an important consideration, you want to be well informed about a company s coverage before traveling with them. If you prefer to use private insurance, obviously, this is not a factor.
When you do carry your own private insurance, you should see an increase in your hourly rate from your travel company. I would first get a rate quote on a travel assignment without mentioning the private insurance, then once you have the specifics figured out (like how much you would receive for housing stipend or any travel money), ask what the numbers would look like without the insurance.
I m sorry that I don t have any resources to give you as far as obtaining private insurance. If you know any travelers working at your hospital, ask them what they do for insurance. You can also post the question regarding insurance to the travel nursing forums on ultimatenurse.com and the Delphi forum for traveling professionals (go to delphiforums.com, look for the box on the right that says Explore existing forums , type in travel nursing and the top result is a group called Travel Nurses and Therapists with over half a million members). Pan Travelers is also another good site with a forum, as well as HealthcareTravelbook.com (which is a Facebook type community for travelers).
I cannot recall what information I provided last time, but if you need some recommendations on travel companies, shoot me an email at david@travelnursesbible.com and I will give you the names of the people I use at the companies I trust. There are a few companies that I recommend that I am on file with, but have not yet traveled with that company. However, rent sports car in these instances, I found recruiters that have a good amount of experience rent sports car and are good at working with nurses just starting out in travel rent sports car (which means they are patient and do a good job of answering the many questions new travelers might have).
Hello everyone. I'm a travel nurse originally from Ohio who graduated in 1993 from Mount Carmel School of Nursing rent sports car in Columbus. I completed a critical care fellowship at Riverside Methodist Hospital in 1994 and started traveling in that specialty a year later. My first travel assignment was in Maui and since that time I have completed over thirty travel contracts, worked with several different travel agencies, and currently hold about a half dozen nursing licenses in different states.
Last year I wrote a book entitled, Travel Nurse's Bible (A Guide to Everything rent sports car on Travel Nursing) , which can be found at TravelNursesBible.com. I am currently blogging on this site and writing a monthly column in Healthcare Traveler Magazine.
Hey Sharon. I am actually in the process of revising the book to make it as current rent sports car as possible and will probably make it available somehow on my website. However, that is going to take some doing as life is a bit hectic right now and I m ending work at one place and trying rent sports car to figure out my next travel assignment.
I know that none of this really rent sports car helps too much, but if you d like to give me some background about yourself and let me know where your knowledge base is in regard to travel nursing, I can help you fill in any gaps and answer any questions you have along the way.
Additionally, when you are ready to start looking at companies, if you need some direction there, I have a group of recruiters I use at the companies I trust. When I refer people to travel companies, I prefer having a direct rent sports car contact to a recruiter that I know will do a great job for the nurses I refer. After all, you can be with the best company on the planet, but how good and experience do you think you will have if they pair you with a recruiter who is just months rent sports car out of training?
I ALWAYS advise rent sports car nurses to be on file with at least two or three companies. I have been traveling rent sports car over a decade and a half and I am still on file with about six or seven companies. Being with several companies is especially important when just starting out.
