causing difficulty that can be dealt with, then that would improve his nutritional status. This is why AAMT is now advising us to transcribe as dictated. So difficult to interpret these guys sometimes, but we get the gist of what they mean.
Usually it's a GI doc to deal with this, but maybe there is something in the throat of concern, or a swallowing dysfunction. I'd flag it for your QA and say "transcribed as dictated" and let QA handle it.
Good pickup!

improve a patient's nutritional status., but rather do the complete opposite. I think the physician meant to dictate "GI" physician since he/she mentioned the dysphagia in the dictation, which is also a common place for strictures or lesions to develop.

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN. Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading. Hope that helps!
