dictates what sounds like "without tramping cords"
I know it's cords, but could it be cramping? It really sounds like tramping but that doesn't make sense to me.
Thanks so much. :)

As long as a testee is allowed to use reference material, etc. why should they not ask a question here? I personally research all of my own questions, but I do help out those that ask on this site, as well, if I know the answer. Besides, who made the above poster the "tester police" anyway? I saw no complaint from the administrator concerning multiple posts for a similar question.

He (or she, can't tell!) is saying peri J-tube abscess, which I am taking to mean there is an abscess in or around the J-tube insertion site, but peri-J-tube looks terrible and can't find periabscess or peri-abscess to reword the sentence. I have had this same dictator for the last 2 1/2 hours since I logged on!!!!

some people quote from this thing like it is the Bible or something, and it just is not. There are A LOT of doctors out there who do not adhere by the BOS and prefer their own guidelines. It does not make them wrong. It is just a matter of preference, more than anything. What's the AAMT gonna do, slap your hand if you don't use their guidelines?? shheesh. what a rip!
I would agree with you that...

it's either "skull base structures" or even more likely "skull and bony structures". I have never seen "scobi" in my years either, but see how it can be easily misunderstood as that for one the phrases above with a fast dictator.

It is a shame when the doctors do not specify what exactly they want quoted. Tough call, but I agree "too busy". You kind of have to put yourself in the doc's place. Doc asks: Are you exercising? Pt. states: "No, too busy.", or "No, I'm too bus." That sort of thing....

with anything, except the 80.00 they want you to spend on it every year, when they keep changing things just to make someone buy it. I can live without it, and my docs say Baker's cyst and want it typed that way.

cc: Patient Name
Enclosure (MRI results)
I believe the Enclosure is for the therapist's review of the MRI results since the letter is addressed to the therapist.

Subject: and I agree......sm
What I do...
The patient is a pleasant, elderly, overweight, chronically ill-appearing, 72-year-old white female.
That's just my way, as I use commas to separate adjectives (any description before you get to the word female).

I believe they're saying C&S for culture and sensitivity although double check the client profile to see if you're suppose to spell it out or leave as is.

you typed: **You would type Mercy Hospital Department of Emergency Medicine but not Mercy Hospital emergency department.**
I do not agree.....
You would type Mercy Hospital Department of Emergency AND Mercy Hospital Emergency Department.
You would NOT capitalize emergency department if you typed *emergency department at Mercy Hospital* or *radiation oncology department at Mercy Hospital....
that's how I was taught 25 yrs ago..........
