are you transcribing or coding?
Subject: are you transcribing or coding?
If you are transcribing, the correct way is:
V code: Parent-child conflict.
Unless you are a certified coder, it would be wise to avoid inserting the actual code into the transcription as the MD/psychologist did not dictate it. The codes can change from year to year and you could enter the wrong code depending on the date of the service and which coding resource you are using.

I am new and have an ophthalmology account. I am not having much trouble with the terms, but I'm unsure how to punctuate and/or format the lens prescriptions. Does anyone know of a good website that explains this or provides examples? Thanks!

I've come across a dictation that is talking about NIDDM. It sounds like he's saying "he was initially of sulfanuria and switched insulin in Puerto Rico". The other part is "He has never been on metformin or glybizone." Any suggestions??

technically not a drug called Toprol should this be transcribed as Toprol-XL though dictated as only Toprol. Have not been called on this yet, but just wondering what others do.
