Gosh, in the old days, I would have resorted to just putting this all under HEENT if you could. It really doesn't belong under ENT, everyone knows the eye does not belong here. Who knows anymore?

headings
If your company uses templates where headings such as HPI and PE are already there, you may not get credit for those character lines. I had this issue at a former company so that may be part of it. Just a thought!

Just like an H&P, but sometimes without headings, sometimes use the SOAP designations. nm

Autocorrect Bolded Headings
I spent quite a bit of time yesterday entering bolded headings into Autocorrect using the Formatted Text button rather than the Plain Text button. I go into WORD today and all my Formatted bolded entries are gone. What did I do wrong or what can I do to make sure these entries are saved? Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

HEADERS....as in what? The things like HISTORY AND PHYSICAL headings?

or the heading at the top of the page that we don't type?

and do you find it a little offputting that they can't put in writing that they pay for spaces? it makes me think all is not kosher.

Enumerated lists and underlining for headings in exam
I was wondering if any of you can help me, and possibly even give me a reference, regarding enumerated lists, specifially in an exam. Example is:

1. General Comments:

2. Response to Medication:

3. Medication Compliance:

Etc.

What I am wondering is the clinic likes the section to be underscored (i.e., General Comments); however, should the underscore include the number or just the words titling that section? I have been doing the latter; however, the person I share the account with underlines both the number and title.

Thanks for your help.

I see them all, too. Some people seem to be missing headings from the blue bar on the left. nm

Shorthand users - How can I keep headings bolded in PE. I want to make
a shortcut for parts of the PE and headings need to be bolded. I cut and copied what I want into SH but when it pulls up they are not bold. TYIA.

Basically formatting, how to type the headings, numbering, etc...sm
Are headings capitalized or followed with a colon?

ex.
HISTORY OF THE PRESENT ILLNESS:

Is it p.r.n., prn, h.s. or bedtime?

Just your basic formatting and styles. I may just download the ebook. Thanks!

It's something in Word, not ExText. Check your Format/Insert/Tools headings. nm

I provide the template, I don't provide the headings though.
but I do pay them for everything that they transcribe. So, the MT has the initial template, they fill in the demographic fields, the body of text, cc information, etc. and that's what they are paid for. The body of text that the MT transcribes would include headings such as Subjective, Objective, etc., however the actual template that includes the logo, wording such as Patient Name, Date of Service, Attending Physician, etc. are not paid for. The template consists of about 8 lines total.
