If I'm not 'speaking' clearly it is because I've had to listen to this mush mouth, speed talker for the past 8 hours and am only about 3/4 done with my quota.  I've never had so much trouble... even my ESL doctor makes better sense than this guy.

BLANKS
Subject: BLANKS

is it okay to put many blanks throughout the document if I'm not exactly sure what he is saying and some things he says make absolutely no sense? (sometimes 2 per paragraph in places) Is it okay to put a blank so he checks that word to make sure its right? these are 9 page long psych reports. It's not cut and dried medical terms and phrases. I'm thinking I should put blanks just to make sure it's right instead of typing what i think he is saying. what do you do
?
blanks
Subject: blanks

I agree with the other post.  I have leaving blanks, but sometimes you have to.  You absolute cannot guess at something.  It is better to leave a blank than to guess, otherwise it is a bad reflection on you as an transcriptionist to try to guess and then have it be wrong.

I'll try to help you, but...

I agree with the other poster.  I mean this in the nicest way possible, so please don't take this wrong.  A little research could have answered these for you.  Here goes anyway...Astelin nasal spray, Scalpacin, ranitidine (you had this one right, googling it would have confirmed it), Feldene, bupropion hydrochloride, and Temovate (this one may not be what you need, google for more info).


If you don't have drug reference books, Quick Look Drug Book is a great book.  Also, you can go to www.fda.gov and then click on drugs, and it will take you to the drugs@fda site, which is great because you can enter just 3 letters of the word.  Also, if you know what the drug is used to treat, type in that condition in google, and you can often find several drugs listed for that condition.  For example, "stop smoking medications" will pull up bupropion hydrochloride.


Good luck!

I type them, even though they come up on spell check.  I have  never had a report back with any of those types of words corrected.  If the doc says it, I type it and the docs seem to do that a lot these days.
