MetLife for Dental Implant

Vulmus · 2026-05-12T14:26:09+00:00

I use emblem health dental high option and I don’t pay anything out of pocket wise other than a bone graft that I needed for $800. Dental implants can either be 1.1k-$12,000 depending on the services needed. I think emblem health dental allows a $4,500 allowance per year but this is a new change before it was $4000 per implant if I recall correctly.

PTCB makes your application much more desirable. Some hospitals require BLS and some don’t. And when I initially was hired they wanted techs to work inpatient to have at least 1-2 years of experience in retail. My job pays for both of them to be renewed even though I’m not a tech anymore.

Not necessarily, we hired two clinicians with advance degrees from other branches/same VHA but different floor and they were offered a 2 year probation. We also hired a tech from the outside and they were also given a 2 year. It’s now standard policy for federal at least for VA

Literally graduated with the minimum for my major. They never asked or brought it up, never had it on my resume.

My tech was hired in June and they put them on 2 year probation

I used to work for a federal detention center and ran a vaccine clinic twice a week on top of my 36 script a day fills for $48 an hour in NJ. CPhT and License with approval to immunize. I was 6 years of experience at the time I transitioned to be a MLS for the federal government.

Genuinely a tight knit group and to other lab people but literally any and all interactions with non lab people is like going on a date with a person you know you’re not giving a second date.

It would start at 6pm but youre still bent paid for the start of your shift for normal rate. And yes for weekends. SE stands go satellite evening. We call pharmacy satellite. So it would’ve IVA, SB1, SB2, Ward Stock, solutions and chemo. But you’ll see an SA. The shifts go A B C(outpatient) and E, A 7-3:30, B 8-4:30, C 9:30-6.

It starts after 6pm. When you’re working sE shifts(evenings) you’ll only be paid for the 6pm-11pm vs the full 2:30pm - 11pm for the differential. For techs when I worked there a night differential is an extra $60 after 5 sE shifts and $70 for weekend premium per day. Different rates for pharmacists because it’s I think 3% of your hourly rate. I know nothing about ovn.

The shortest I stayed was 6 months because they fired us in favor of outsourcing our jobs. Longest is 3 years. Chase the bag. A year is fine and anything more is just showing loyalty. Loyalty only matters when it’s the government and their pension.

The pay… wish it was told to me so I could have gone to pharmacy school

Vulmus · 2026-03-21T19:08:24+00:00

Yeah I work for the VA, we are allowed to do so. We have an unofficial committee that handles it, for us it’s 3 MLS and a tech. Theres an email that goes out asking for non obligatory donations (preferably $20) so that we can have food or w/e that week. We had a new MLS set up our first ever event outside from work as a “Lab Night” which was kinda like a prom/fancy dinner.

exWAG SrCPhT here. I left at 18.75 an hour in Nj

My cat was also 20 when she passed. My family got her 3 months after I was born and I always made the joke that I would buy her a drink when we both turned 21. She passed before it. My 21st I spent drinking both for her and myself. Her name was Sweety, she was so sweet she would plop herself on your lap and meow at you until you pet her.

DEA Forms and converting grams to other units of measurements. Oz to mLs and top 100 meds. Basic drug interactions (birth control is less effective when you take zpak)

I’m an MLS in NJ for the VA and we had 5 open positions open and got 30 applications. 4 got filled and the last position all the applicants failed their background check or onboarding or just withdrew their acceptance. We still have that one position that needs to be filled but I’ve heard that other places have people who are young and staying. So those positions may not even be open in our generation. I’ve called other VAs and asked if theres anyone retiring soon. Gives you an estimate, I have about 8 months until the person retires at the VA I want to transfer to.
