Perhaps you could make more if you spelled POLL correctly. LOL
Thought it was funny.
Do you get free Schwan's food?

I go, I chomp down on the free food, and I leave my wallet at home! (nm)
:D
If you submit your reports on time and correctly, you get paid correctly. Pay has been on sm
time for 2 years now. 1st and 15th for employees, 2nd and 16th for ICs. If it falls on a weekend or holiday, it posts the next business day.
By the way, there is no Sophie on radiology at Keystrokes. Must be a troll.
Food stamps, WIC, food banks, churches, family...
There are many answers to that problem.
No one has the right to steal and writing a dishonorable check is stealing. It is called "theft of property".
My tax dollars support government programs to prevent people from going hungry and to provide for women, infants, and children. I make donations to food banks and churches, etc., for those who just need help as well.
Food for the staff and doctors, if you can afford it. Food is always a big hit in a doctor's off
One of the biggest perks I can remember when I worked in a doctor's office was when the drug reps or orthopedic equipment reps would cater lunch for the whole office just so they could meet with the docs. The whole office would get so jazzed at the idea of free lunch.
If you can't afford to cater lunch, then I would do something like a muffin basket and bagels always go over well. But food is your best bet.
Really???? I miss 'burgh food. Philly food is okay, but it

The food is resturant quality food and very good

Well, that's because it is spelled out in

How's that spelled?????

He also spelled ...
... simvastatin and folic acid.
Why because this is spelled wrong.
Everybody else points everything out, why can't I?????? You are multiple personality disorder considering you can never stick with one name.
Wanna play?
Can be spelled either way. Has been for years. nm
I know we have all had things spelled for us that seemed a ---
bit silly, but I just had a doctor spell not once, but twice during the report guns - g-u-n-s. 
Do you not transcribe as spelled?
I thought that was the definition of verbatim account. What is a verbatim account definition, pls?
I spelled it right in my head. Besides, this is

Abacus is not free. It is $20 but worth it. You can download a trial version free which does not h
I have used this for years and have compared to Sylvan, Word, and MP Count, etc. When you have it set to count every character, bold, shift, tab, etc. It is great and always higher than the others. Now if you are wanting gross lines like in Word then no it won't be as high because Word counts blanks lines and Abacus counts a line only if there is a character on it. There is also two places to check for it to count the Headers/Footers. If you have the FREE version then it must be the trial or a very old version so you don't have all the features and functions.
Free? As in, free trial? Otherwise, I don't think you'll find a spellcheck software that's

Should be spelled and embarrassed. Where are you QAing?

You spelled "grammatically" wrong
no further message needed
Grrr! I just had a doc who spelled the abbreviations!
COPD, that's captial C, capital O, capital P, captial D. LAD, capital L, capital A, capital D.
Plus...
Patient has been in drug recovery - that's R-E-C-O-V-E-R-Y
Really? I did not know that. Thanks so much.
And yes, I know I spelled cystoscopy wrong.........

Gettin' over. No matter how it's spelled.
Sorry I spelled your name incorrectly Blondee..

yes I know I spelled criticism wrong...
don't shoot me!!!
kind of like SOME women, in either case it's spelled S-h-a-l-l-o-w

Did you notice you spelled grammar - grammer? LOL sm
Seriously though, it is your account and you have every right to demand better quality, and if she cannot provide that for you, then maybe you need to reconsider her as an IC. You absolutely have to be very careful when hiring those who just cannot take criticism the right way. Those are the worst because they are prideful MTs and they will never get it right because they don't think they have an issue! Trust me, I LIVE with one of those.
Get some back bone and start demanding better work or tell her you will replace her. See if she doesn't slow down then! Good luck. Put the whip on her - that should do the trick.
WOOPEE!!!!! YAHOO!!!!!! The doc SPELLED the patient's name!!!!!!!...
Yippee!!!!!!! I am jumping around like a little kid!! Did someone finally get the message through?? I CAN NOT SEARCH THIS ACCOUNT FOR PATIENT NAMES!!! (or is it just a fluke?)
Had to share. TeeHee
After readign my OP again, I spelled the words incorrectly -sm
in rush to send post. I mainly use Stedman's Radiology Words and lunotriquetral interosseous ligament is listed--w/o hyphen since I do radiology but just looked in the Ortho book and it is also listed there.
Thanks for taking time to list your references
difference in abbr and word spelled out
Hi Debra,
I think the difference here is impacted by 2 things:
1. If you are spelling the word out fully, then it looks dumb to join them:
10milligrams
But if you are writing it in ShortHand as we generally do in medical documents, I think it is abundantly clear to write:
10mg
2. Also we're talking about medical/scientific measure. When I had my transcription business the editorial policy concerning such was this:
If you are transcribing a medical/scientific measurement you join the value and the unit of measure:
2g
If you are transcribing OTHER than medical measurement, you write it out:
She has two houses locally. Of her three children, two are grown.
And Never:
She has 2 houses locally. Of her 3 children, 2 are grown.
No. Measurements are in numerals, all others are written out. That was OUR editorial policy. Others have different policies, and whatever policy is established is how it needs to be done.

uh, I don't type a medication that is spelled wrong

Yes. I find it spelled both ways on Google.

I received a note from QA that I'd spelled the patient's name wrong
THROUGHOUT the report. Since I don't keep a copy of the chart on my computer anymore, I can't go back and look at it to see what I did. I vaguely remember though, 2 days later, that I had a patient that was not on the patient list so I spelled phonetically, marked it for QA that this was throughouit the report and sent it on its way. I questioned the person telling me about the mistake as to whether it was spelled right in the demographics and a couple more questions trying to clear my confusion about what could have happened. This is certainly not something that is my norm, for sure. She replied once, but after asking another question and telling her that I'm really not trying to give her a hard time over this, she has not responded again. Is it possible that someone QA'd my report, fixed the patient's name in the demographics but didn't look at the report body. Perhaps I should have flagged every place that it is mentioned as well? "The patient" certainly would have been a sure thing here but not allowed.
So now that I've ranted a little more over this I'll let it go (hopefully) but I just can't believe I'd have done this. I even use "uj" in my Expander and change it to the patient's name with every report, just so I don't make a mistake remembering how to spell some of the names. I guess that's the biggest reason why I'm having a hard time with this one, because I do the same think on EVERY report, uj=whatever the patient's name is as per the demographics on the patient. AAARRRGGGHHHH. It sure does bug me.
   
people speak and you see the words spelled out in your mind...

I see I spelled *grammar* wrong in my post above. *sigh*
Let me say it before anyone else! LOL
some doctors dont think that is trivial. They expect doctor's name to be spelled right
When you are working for someone across the world, it is hard to find the name of that particular doctor.
She is right to put a blank for this.
I had an account that demanded the physician's name to be spelled correctly. They think of it as an insult.
To me, it looks as if you did it correctly.
I wouldn't use a semicolon in that sentence.
You should do them correctly.
Escription can deal with a cap in the middle of a work. I type my drugs correctly but on most of the accounts I've been on (6), I've had to cap the allergies myself. The more consistent everyone is, the better the system will do.
Did I understand you correctly?
I already work on DQS, but do you mean that the new payment plan will not include headers, spaces, and so on?
HELP!!! 
If I read you correctly
Yes, that JW (Pacific time zone)
Actually he may be pronouncing it correctly.
had the term "pis" which is French for urinate. It is pronounced "pee."
They dropped it from the newer ones, however.
If I remember correctly sm
these are long, long reports. Absolutely charge by the line.
not OP but mac did ya read that correctly?.LOL
It was a MS and not a Mr *LOL*
 have some lemonade on this very hot 95+ degree sweltering humid day....probably causing the negativity, eh? 
If I understand it correctly what they do it take - sm
an average of 12 months (previous year I guess) and charge you that each month. So if you spend $1500 a year, they then will charge you $125 a month for a year for a total of $1500. I presume if you are over that they bill you at the end of the year for the overage, and hopefully credit you if you are actually under. Our propane company wanted to do the same, but I just go with getting billed when they fill the tank, though that gets pretty nasty too ($300-$800) depending on price of propane and how full/empty the tank is when it is filled, plus they only give 7 days to pay the bill, how nice.
Do I read this correctly????
your HUSBAND was CRYING AND FREAKING OUT because he had not eaten???????? Please say it isn't so!!!!! I hope you mean your 1 y/o or 4 y/o NOT your husband.
Why not spell it correctly?
I learned a long time ago that doctors are notoriously bad spellers! What is the word?
