Gotten versus changing to got
Subject: Gotten versus changing to got
How many out there think when the doctor says gotten increasing large that replacing got for gotten sure looks better. Does anyone know off hand if there is an official grammar rule here. I think it looks bad!

changing question
Subject: changing question
I guess my original question shoud be if I have 300 cc or more rather than just 1 cc, should it have an s behind it or or just read cc. I have been corrected to be just cc and for some reason I remember it should be apostrophe (cc's)
Changing what is dictated is not always appropriate
Subject: Changing what is dictated is not always appropriate
even if you are offended by profanity. If the doc you are transcribing has a quote in it, you have to type as dictated or it is not a quote. If the physician is using profanity that has nothing to do with what the patient actually said, then some clients require you to change the words, because it is inappropriate otherwise.
My stance on this is just this. If it is a quote, don't change it, because it changes the integrity of the document. Whether you are offended or not, these medical records also serve as legal documents. You must keep that in mind. Just because you are offended is not a reason to change the words.
changing around doctors words
Subject: changing around doctors words
What is considered normal and appropriate.. if the doctor usually says things or an expressoin a certain way and this expression is on my autocorrect is it okay for me to type it in that way (with my autocorrect) if he changes around the sentence but it really means the same thing anyway. Also, how much is it acceptable to change what he says.

Since no QA, just do what you feel

looks right and then they will let you know if it is right or wrong.
I would probably separate each by stating the problem is blah, blah, blah then paragraph the examination is blah, blah, etc.
I would not capitalize headings since they are office notes.
Make each problem standout somehow.
If they have no samples for you, then do it and let them get back to you.
Good Luck
Thanks so much. I feel much better about this now.

No one from QA has EVER treated me that way. I have had a few less than desirables, but this one is shocking.
I can stand for the fact that people who have diabetes do not necessarily have hypertension. My father has diabetes and has had two MIs and does not have nor has he been treated for hypertension ever.
Plus, I have done QA and yeah, once in awhile a sound alike may seem way off to you because you may know the dictator so well, BUT I have never had anything come across that was "way off". I have always listened a couple of times to try to figure the word out before flagging it as I am sure 99% of us MTs do. Frankly, I would try to speak to her supervisor in the company if you have that option because if she is treating people that way, the company will lose their good MTs. I left a company of a nasty QA manager (apparently not this bad). I would NOT put up with that. It is abusive pure and simple

This is an ESL. I think she has said this before, but I cannot get a grip on it this time.
She was bleeding so much that she called 911 and the patient was taken to the ER. The ER controlled the bleeding and put a plastic **salizine** tape and sent her to see PCP today. According to her, she is not in pain at all but she was afraid when she took off the dressing it would bleed. Thanks!

Just trying to help, didn't claim to be perfect. cushingoid/Cushing disease, effect, phenomenon, pituitary basophilism, response, suture, syndrome, etc. according to Stedman's.

Because of oligomenorrhea, she did start birth control pills and stopped them approximately 1 year ago. At first she had menstrual cycles every 4-6 weeks, but about the last 6 months or so she has been having 2 periods a month. She brings a schedule with her that shows that she had s/l promera or proberus from 06/07/06 to 06/14/06. her times of bleeding were 06/24/06, 07/07/06, 07/25/06, and 08/06/06, and she bleeds about 3-7 days each time. She has no moliminal symptoms and no evidence of ovulatory symptoms.

I actually corrected a radiologist to her face because she was using that very term incorrectly, just like your dictator! She admitted she'd had a discussion with a professor in school about that word, and I could tell she couldn't understand it when he explained it and couldn't understand me either! She didn't think I was right, but she finally said she didn't care if I changed it! I was appalled that somebody with an MD & I think a PhD couldn't get the concept! What a nut!
