All and any Operative Reports! Love em!. sm
Including Cardiothoracic and cardiac caths.
Love typing ER reports (sm)
x most have macros, and the funny thing is that in the summer if one fall of the monkey bars you get a bunch more, or trampoline accidents, get one get half a dozen, love it, never boring!! Hope this helps!!
I absolutely love ER/ED reports.
When I worked at a hospital, we had a rotating schedule on who did those and x-rays. Like poster below, if you don't want them I will take them.
I love psychiatric reports, really fascinating, always different. nm

I have a doctor who will sing his reports every once in a while, love it. (nm)

I LOVE typing reports for podiatrists!
My first account was for a practice of 3 podiatrists and I so wish I could find another account like that. I miss it. 
I love those long reports. I think of them as free money.
It's just straight transcribing with no stopping to verify patient or physician information to start a new note. I'll trade you for 1 minute long dictations by a little Russian guy?
I do understand the frustration at the duplication of information. Then again, the copy/paste feature works great at giving more lines for free with no typing. LOL I always thought that if I could find a way to simplify the medical record while still utilizing MTs, I'd be rich.
I do only Op Reports and love it. Great line count too. sm
Everyone is different, although I think you can learn them and you may even like doing them. Give it a shot and good luck!
Been specializing in op reports for 25 years now. You do need to keep up with the medical equipment terms. There is something new every day.
Lucky. I love long reports. I thought I got a good one, but it was a 1.5 minute
report with 12 minutes of dead air. Sit here and do nothing. For free.
LOVE teaching hospitals and long-winded reports. Less ADT time which I'm not paid for.
Hate filling in ADT screens w/ searches just to do a one minute report.
The MR reports were being filed. Referring physicians/medical care providers reports were not.
This is a hospital radiology department with in-house MTs and a clerk who is in charge of the report distribution.
The two sentence normal reports will balance out the 3 page reports.
I am Wendy too
Your English teacher does not do medical reports. This is for medical reports.

love, love, love the show. hate american idol. this show is for real.
the only reason i entertained watching it was because of mark burnett and as usual he has such genious casting and editing. btw, don't know who anything about "metal" music but these performers make me like it. love marty and jd as performers. HATE JESSICA. susie is so nice and so emotional. it seems they all support each other and enjoy each others skills. regarding ty and bob marley, ty was excellent but he also lucked out on the song! bob marley was genious too and his music is very easy to listen to. i don't like 3/4 of what the others are given to sing but their performances make me love the music. dave navarro shines on this show, very gracious for the most part and letting the contestants down easy when they have to leave. he was great last night with brandon (?). sweet, sweet show. i am so impressed with everyone involved.
Yep that's it, 4000. Love, love love the zoom
But I feel like a dork typing...every time I try to type But it is coming out as Nut!
I love it too - love doing my nails 5 hours a day and staying awake
Love NOT getting paid while sitting doing my nails too. It's a real turn on.
I tell all my friends to try it -- sit in front of your computer while you have no money to pay your rent and instead do your nails, you get a real buzz down in the pit of your stomach.
Also LOVE LOVE ESCRIPTION and make good money but...
Can I ask how you sit there for 8 hours. Lately, I'm having a motivation problem. When I focus, I can rack up the lines, but lately, I get so easily distracted. My mind wanders and I struggle to get my lines. Any tips on how you stay productive who do you work for?? I work for Transcend.
People either love it or hate it. I personally love it
but I know a lot of people say you cannot make any money on it and will not work on it. I do okay. I'm obviously not getting rich but I am making a living. I found it easier than Dictaphone and faster such in downloading and uploading job and you only have to log on one system and not like Dictaphone where you have to log onto the VPN and then log onto the program. It's always worth a try, but yes, the biggest complaint I hear is that no one can make a living and the cpl isn't that great.
I went back in house and love it. I love not being
secluded. I was working in my PJs, less organized and feel much better now that I get up and dress for work and see people (even those in traffic aren't so bad anymore). I find that I have more of a life now, and my family says that I spend more time with them now.
Working at home served its purpose for a long time; I was ready to go out into the world again now that I have no little ones at home.
BD WONG! I love him! I love all CSI and Law and Orders!
I am so addicted. I actually schedule my job and family around the shows LOL.
Love love love my chair
The arms can be lowered so they won't be in your way, I don't know about the tilt limiter. But I bought my off ebay about 6 years ago and can't do without it. No I do not think you can find another chair that even compares to the aeron, changed my working life completely, no sore back or butt. You won't regret it, but you will if you go for a cheap imitation.
rad reports
I've never heard of such a thing and I wouldn't want to do it. Just curious. what company is it?
I do OP Reports also, about 500 lph. nm

X-ray reports
One of my accounts are beginning to do simple x-ray reports, chest, foot, hand, etc. Anyone have samples as to headings, etc. I have not done them for so long, cannot remember headings such as Exam, Indications, Findings, Diagnosis, etc. They just told me to take what they say and make it "look professional, nice and neat." "As you always do with our reports" they say.
Thanks for your help.
ER Reports
I am going on a job interview and I have to type some ER reports for the skills part of the pre-employment exam. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find some examples of them. I have been out of school for a while, and right now I just do surgeries and clinic notes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need this new job so bad, it has great benefits.
ER Reports
If you follow this link you will find something that might help. You will do fine.

Every 3 reports
Now that you mention it, I usually feel the need to break after about 3 reports or so depending on the length, but that sounds about right. I noticed that one day, but I never thought of it again until you mentioned it. I keep a written log myself aside from what the computer keeps, I always have, it is a habit. Anyway, I usually keep my reports documented in groups of 3 or 5.
ER Reports
I just got a new job at a company that services emergency room docs, so I will only be doing ER Reports. I have not had much experience doing them. Are they pretty hard? How should I prepare myself I start Monday?
ER reports
My secondary account is an ER account, and I love it. They are short and sweet.
ER reports
Just smile - you're on easy street! Hopefully you will have good software that lets you make your own normals with stop codes. You just jump from spot to spot with lightening speed most of the time.
It's reports like these
that help me realize that I don't have it so bad afterall. I guess we all take things for granted from time to time. I appreciate eye-openers like this and try to be more thankful, even when times are tough.
Op reports
I have been doing surgeries for 10 years and just love it. I do radiology all day so at night, surgeries are a nice change.
ER reports
Was there a posting on the boards recently about doing mostly ER reports? What was the name of the company? I cannot find it now. Thanks.
Can someone tell me about how many reports 250
minutes of dictation is? This is for a radiology account.
My company tells us the backlog in minutes and when I ask them about how many reports that is, they can't tell me either.
Just curious and to help me decide how many hours to work also.
those of you who do op reports
I checked archives but didn't find much info - I don't do many op notes, and therefore don't have many reference books. Do you use Google or could you recommend a really good book for me to get? Thank you in advance.
lab reports
If there is ever on thing worse than a speed demon ESL, it is a speed demon ESL doing labs. Anybody know where to get a good full sample of a completed lab report?
same as any other reports...
around here it is about 11-12 cpl for a 65 char long line. No reason to charge extra because it is a sleep study.
ER reports
I dont know about you, but I think you need a cast iron constitution. Some of the ED reports I have typed have almost made me sick. But for variety, you can't beat them. Be prepared for a lot of ESL's and docs that dictate all in one breath.
Different pay for certain reports
Does anyone else's employer pay more for some reports and less for others?
Our employer pays 92% of the standard line rate for ER reports and yet pays 105% of standard rate for operations. I have a real problem with this. My skills don't vary based on what type of work I do so why should the pay scale.
Fax reports
And don't forget to count the time you spend on the faxing, even though you can hardly charge by the hour, your time is valuable and should be included.
Reports
How many lines does 25 reports yield, approximately, anywhere in the range between 3 to 7 minutes long?
What I like about OP reports...
I find OP reports easier than even consults or discharge summaries. I think it is because they are almost the same every time, i.e. there is a standard way to take out a gallbladder. You just have to learn the doctor's style of dictation.
The hardest part for me was learning the names of different types of instruments. I invested in a Stedman's Surgical Equipment Word book and I use Google and get most of the terms that way.
and their OP reports
are horribly long....
But we don't cap it in reports. It's just
Tisseel.
Help with OP reports
I am looking for a new job, lost accout not long ago, outsourcing,VR. I don't have experience in OP reports and everyone wants that. Help!!! Where can I get some samples? 
op reports
I have been honest, my problem is that I am trying to take the tests for this companies and they all have OP reports on them. I am going totally nuts with a DCIS.
Rad reports
I have always been paid per report. $2/report. It all evens out short reports vs long reports.
5 reports a day....sm
 My friend/MT "penpal" also tried this company (10+ years exp). Told her after 2-3 days (all are IC) okay, you're off QA - "You already know how to transcribe". All of a sudden, they told her there was something wrong with her formatting, the formatting "wasn't coming out right." (Whose fault is that supposed to be?). Put her on QA for that reason, same thing, 5 reports a day (one of the submanagers doubles as QA person)...supposedly to save wear & tear on her. There was lots of unpaid demographic crap, research, though involved before any line count comes into play with this company. When she questioned this, they terminated her contract. What I would like to know, though, AT 5 REPORTS A DAY.... OR UNTIL THE "REAL WORK" COMES IN...WHO PAYS YOUR BILLS? WHEN IS YOUR FIRST "REAL" PAYCHECK???  
Now I know I do too many Op reports - sm
I was typing a Mental Health intake, and where the dictator said, "she was clinging to her mother," I, of course, typed "KIinging." I guess they were bandaged together! LOL : )
Don't do it. The reports are probably SM
full of blanks and you could spend 15 mins in a report, multiply that by 4 and you have a per-hour rate of less than $8.
Now I know where all the bad reports come from
I guess by your "training" the newbies they have so many errors left that when it finally gets to me to complete it is such a tossed salad. Thanks for clearing this up.
