Surgeon dictates "double-zero" and "triple-zero" curettes. What is consensus on typing these? Type out words or use combinations of 0-0? Can't find definitively in BOS. Thanks for any tips.

If the "times" comes before the number use the x (no space). If the "times" comes after use the word.
don't know if there is a rule but....
Subject: don't know if there is a rule but....
I think if you would substitute "bilateral" (mentally) and say "both" you might have a better idea how to say it. Like would it sound better iff you said "both hand" or "both hands." To me bilateral hands sounds better. But again, I don't know if there is actually a rule. I looked for an answer in "style Guide for Medical Transcription" (Tessier and Pitman) and couldn't find an answer.
I think if you wrote what the doctor said ....you can't go wrong there either. Good luck!.

Subject: What is the rule now for cc?

As a rule yes, but not always
Subject: As a rule yes, but not always
I find way too many exceptions to that rule so I always look them all up the first time and add them to my ever-growing list. I wish there was a list out there somewhere with most of them already catagorized for us.
