Medical report interpreter
Perhaps this will lead to a new profession or expansion of one that already exists---that of medical report interpreter. The scenario is that of a legal case involving medical reports, such as in personal injury lawsuits and such, and the need is for medical language specialists to interpret the medical reports for law firms that are trying to interpret the facts of a case.
MEDICAL REPORT MGNT
DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A GOOD MEDICAL MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE SIMILAR TO TURBOSCRIBE/TURBO FLOW THAT CAN BE PURCHASED?
Doesn't matter 1 iota if it is a medical report.She probably wouldn't know a good MT if 1 bit
the butt - that was my point.
EASE UP!

DocShuttle ease of use
I am looking for part time work and wonder what good and/or bad anybody has experienced with the DocShuttle Transcriptionist/Client software. I have an IN-BMG foot pedal. I don't want to put out money for software and not have it work with my pedal. Can I keep my macros and expanders, do I need a special adapter? My present pedal is in the 15-pin joystick port on my computer.
Any and all comments good or bad deeply appreciated.
Anyone familiar with Chartscript & ease of use? Tx--NM

Consider DocShuttle for ease of use combined with simpleFTP.
You literally only have to dock the recorder in DocShuttle and the rest is done automatically, import from recorder, export into DocShuttle program, upload to FTP site, download new stuff. Can also mark for stats, keep Docs separate on same ftp site with administrator assignments to job types, etc. Otherwise, I just use FTPsurger to drag and drop files to my simple FTP site.
I would still have to work, but I would ease up on it and relax for a change.

I agree, Frizz-Ease is the best. Worth every penny. nm

You do not need the 1099. You just need to report the income. Report the company/person ...sm
to the IRS for not sending out the 1099.
I charge the same amount for a "normal" report as for any other report.
You still have to listen to the dictation and change anything that's different. I had one woman try to pull this on me. She'd dictate, "Just pull up my normal, but change this, change that, switch that around, move that, add this, delete that, and change the other." Then she'd only want to pay me what equated to $.03 per line. She wanted 1:1 on her dictation to transcription ratios. I told her to take her cheap account down the road because I'm worth more than that.
Oh, a report just came in. A report actually just slid in, can you believe it. Hip Hip Hooray. I
had better get that sucker typed before it gets out of ONE MINUTE TAT.
I would buy new a Dorland's Medical Dictionary, Stedmans Medical and Surgical Equipment...SM
and Tessier's The Surgical Word Book, 3rd edition. Books you could buy used I would say would be Stedman's Pathology and Lab Medicine and Cardiology/Pulmonary word book. These are all the books I use the most during my day. You could buy other speciality word books as you need them and could probably go used with those.
I wouldn't bother with buying a drug book, new editions come out every year and I just stick to the FDA website and RXList as my drug references.
Also FYI, not a book, but I use my Stedman's Electronic Medical Dictationary a lot. It's easier to open the program than it is to pick up a huge 30-pound dictionary.
Medical Transcription In The Era Of Electronic Medical Records
EMR has revolutionized the healthcare industry in recent times. Many experts felt that EMR & Voice Recognition would totally replace Medical Transcription - however; the industry soon realized that transcription has certain advantages over point & click charting and many physicians preferred to dictate notes rather than document the data at the point of care themselves.
If you are careful with putting the correct report in the correct report shell and patient, you will
not have any problems. I only take away this option when someone is careless. There can be NO room for error on this. One mistake can be very serious. Many do it well though, so just double check and you will be fine.
I've thought about coding. My DH does medical coding and I think with an MT's medical termino
background and anatomy and physiology knowledge, a transition into coding wouldn't be hard at all. From what I can tell by looking through my husband's books, an MT would have to learn insurance regulations and legalities. We've basically got all the medical background down or we should be if we're worth our salt as an MT.
I even contacted AHIMA and found that the qualifications for taking the CCS or CCP coding exams are completion of the a coding program, RHIT program, or RHIA or related work experience. Transcription is part of HIM, albeit the red-headed stepchild of the HIM department, but a part nonetheless and so satisfies the qualification of having work experience.
The test is tough though. My husband didn't pass it his first time out and I think I read something like only 20% or so pass it the first time. So it would probably be best to take some sort of formal coding class, in my opinion.
medical abbreviation list and medical drug list
Hi,
Anyone there who could help me out finding the latest abbreviations list.
I even want the latest drug list because my current program does not have many drugs.
So if anyone could suggest anything which is available online for informationd quick look purposes.
any help for medical abbreviation list and medical drug list would be very helpful.
Your English teacher does not do medical reports. This is for medical reports.
.
It's not a MEDICAL spellchecker. You have to convince them to add the medical spellchecker.
unless you feel like adding 10,000 medical terms on your own time LOL
Yes...Every Report
I have to admit, I proofread EVERY SINGLE REPORT. But I always have gone for overkill, and I am new. My one and only QA score was 98%. While I am proofreading (long reports), I sometimes stand up and stretch, or run and grab a snack or lunch so I don't feel like it is so much a waste of time. I suppose I will have to get to the point where I don't proofread every report, or I will never make any money! I may have to rethink my strategy if and when MQ increases their line quota for part time employees. Rumor has it at 8,000 lines per pay period, and I am only managing 6,000 and working long hours just to do that. Got to figure SOME way to speed up!
report
I get paid per report, $1.30, includes all accessions/requisitions -
for instance in one report if doc says this is an MRI of the Head, neck and 3d multiplanar I get 1.3 for each. I use Shorthand and I have eight years experience. I do anywhere from 80-120 reports a day.
There was a report in AL, I think, that there was
a live alligator swimming around the flood waters there in one area. The newscaster kept saying it was live and nobody would come out and was avoiding that area until it disappeared. It's probably waiting somewhere quietly for its next dinner to walk by.
Two of my accounts are in New Orleans and I have typed hundreds of patients with abscesses that tested positive for MRSA over the last few months. The way the city is now cannot be helping this at all. A few of the docs I do are automatically treating for MRSA now w/o getting the culture report just because they've seen so many cases.
right! Fox would report a
That would be real news there.
No, the woman bought a LOUIS VUITTON with the money she got
(debit card).
ONE report probably
so they will need to add more MT's...LOL! I feel for all of you.
Per Report
The highest I have heard of anyone paying per report is $2 with most paying less than that. Hope that helps.
Pay by report?
Hi, all: I've been getting my own small clients here and there, and I've had a request for a proposal to radiology reports for a small radiology group. Their current vendor is charging them by report, not line. Anyone have any idea what to charge by report? I've done some calculating with regard to average lines per report, and I'm thinking of offering to do it for $3 per report. Any idea if this is too high or too low??? Any input is appreciated........
Per report
Working as an IC you should be charging $2 per report, that is what I charge my clients. Good Luck!!!
I saw a report that said . . .
Heart rate 80 permanent. Do ya think he said per minute?
Report changes
Has anyone ever had someone go in and change your reports? I don't mean change a small word or the wording of a sentence. I am talking about taking out information and putting in information that the doctor did not dictate, making the report incorrect for the patient's records? I found this happening to my work and need information on the legal ramifications, as well as how to handle this.
report changes
I work at home for a service, but not as an IC. I found work changed by having a temporary copy on file - then the QA changes/corrections - and then relistened and found changes made that affected the whole report, different medications, different procedures and PMH, etc. Information that will probably one day go on to another physician that is incorrect and that I did not transcribe, but with my initials on the report. Of course, I realize that once the physician signs it that the liability is on him, but it's just inconceivable that someone would do this. I saw this happen one other time when I worked in house and one Transcriptionist didn't like another one and this was done in order to try and get the disliked employee fired. However, it did not involve my work then. I keep thinking that MTs all think ethically and with a legal obligation to the patient, but I know in reality that to some it is just a job. I am tetering on talking to the company and/or the account manager, especially since I have everything in black and white - the first report - the QA corrections - the changes to the report after it came back to me, etc. I'm just looking for some guidance on how to handle the situation.
I had one report from one md....sm
I had one MD last week that had this dinging sound throughout his report......I hit no key accidentally or held a key down. This was on the dictator's side, this dinging noise.....
$1.20 per report
ask what are the margins, font, length of reports for per page or gross lines
also what do you mean by "plus paid for links?" is this something additional that you do for the report?
$1.20 per report
I have been offered $1.30, $1.50, $1.75 to $2.00 per page depending on the average length of report.
definitely report it
That is very disturbing to me. She was very unprofessional and not that I want to know what she said, but is it something she did that should be reported to authorities?
$3-4.00 per report sm
But no one will pay that. You probably don't want to take a job typing MRIs and CTs by the report. They can get pretty lengthy. Just my 2 cents. :)
I just sent a report with ....
24 QA markers. The darn thing looked liked Swiss cheese. And it wasn't even an ESL. He was an American who could speak perfectly good English if he chose to. Instead, he slurrs entire sentences, sometimes 2 or 3 together in the same breath. I cringe every time this guy comes up on my screen and even having old reports to look at in my feedback screen doesn't help. 
Okay, I'm done. Have a good evening. I'm changing into my flannel jammies and watching a movie.
My tax guy says you do not have to report it if
If they 1099 ya', that means they reported to the IRS that they paid you. If they send you the 1099, then you must report it or you could get blipped. The $500.00 amount is correct though if you made under that amount, you do not have to claim it. I really do not think you need to combine anything. Each company you have worked for as an IC should 1099 ya'! Just my thoughts on this issue and the experiences I have had.
Every report
This person has no experience and seems to have no pride in the work. She types any old thing. I send her feedback and I get somewhat snippy replies that I should explain things better... I am not the trainer..but references to that I might have needed help when I started out. Well truthfully, when I started out I looked things up like crazy, proofed by work and had a lot of pride in my product. This person had to have been very cheap for the boss. The boss knows I will fix the mess and so what's the problem? Everything is peachy for everyone except me?
pay per report
Any radiology Transcriptionist out there that know of any companies that pay per report and how much?
Per Report pay
MQ pays up to $1.25 per report for Radiology.
report pay
Is 1.10 cheap per report?
per report
I think 1.10 is low - i get 1.50 on one account, 2.00 on another. I think rad reports are average 15 lines per report.
On other rad accounts I get 10 and 12 cents per line.
