Basic 4 = HP, Consults, DS, and OPs.
Acute care may contain ER notes if you are lucky, but will usually contain the basic 4 plus more procedure notes like cardiac studies, and a wider mix with wound care clinic notes, possibly rad-onc clinic notes, just depends on the hospital's specialty. Or the terms can be used fairly interchangeably.
The main focus of hospital work is the basic 4, but on some accounts they will say with OP notes and others without OP notes, because (I believe) some MTs will sign up to just do OP notes because they are their favorite. With a smaller hospital you are more likely to have a mix with little departmental procedures, IME, and larger hospitals tend to just have a service do the basic 4, again, IME.
Mostly inpatient hospital dictation - H&P, DS, Consults, Ops, some include ER
and progress notes. Acute care is usually inpatient dictation from hospitals.
Hope this helps.
