Abbreviation Question
Posted By: Confused on 2007-06-20

Hi. I have conflicting information from my school about abbreviation expansion in the diagnosis section. One person says that only non-medical abbreviations, like cm, mL,etc. are not expanded under the diagnosis heading. Then another person said that non-disease abbreviations like LDA and PTCA do not have to be expanded either. I would think that those need to be expanded because they are associated with a disease or illness. I know that account guidelines will help with this when I am actually working, but right now I am very confused. Can someone please help me?

Bad school. If you do a search using abbreviation you'll
get more info. I'm not sure what other abbreviations you are talking about, if company abbreviations or the usual internet appreviations like DH for dear husband. You can look on the classified board here for a foot pedal, you need USB-1. You can also look on E-bay, or do a Google search for companies that sell new. A new one would cost anywhere between $65 and $80. If you go to the ExpressScribe website I think they sell them now.
