What is the name of your state? Texas
I have worked for a four-physician practice as a medical transcriptionist for 2 years. I worked three months in the office and then was allowed to take the work home. I was still an employee with paid vacation, sick leave, holidays and insurance but was paid on production (by the line typed). Three weeks ago I went to pick up my work as usual and there was nothing. I was told that they were using a transcription service on a trial basis for backup when I was out. I waited a week and saw very little work. I began actively searching for a new job, found one and turned in my resignation with my last day being Dec. 23rd. This week so far I have absolutely no work, so I will get no pay. Question #1 is can they do this? and question 2 is will I have to pay out of my pocket for my insurance since I have earned no salary to take it from?
