So, 1 1/2 hours of dictation should only take 3-4 hours to transcribe. sm
Subject: So, 1 1/2 hours of dictation should only take 3-4 hours to transcribe. sm
then what in the H**l am I doing wrong. I just did 1 1/2 hours of dictation with 1350 line count and it took me like 12 hours. I did 4 hours last night uninterrupted. the rest this morning with little interruptions from my child (dh was home) and a couple breaks and lunch.
I thought 1350 lines were supposed to be full time work. That is what I have been hearing from so many people.
Now I am confused and really feeling like a failure as an MT. Maybe this is not my profession!

You should ask your employer about account specifics, but the way I was taught was that if "hours" is dictated, then you should put "hours" and not "h."

I have done all of these years, but some physicians will allow you more time as long as you are reliable. It also depends upon whether they use it for billing purposes.

Military time
0618 hours
Subject: 0618 hours
Military time is based on a 24-hour clock. "06" is 6 a.m. 6 p.m would be 1800 hours. You just add or subtract 12 to the time on the clock after noon to get the p.m. times.
I hope this clarifies. If you have any other questions, plase feel free to ask and I'll try to explain better.

time to type 1.5 hours of dictation..
Subject: time to type 1.5 hours of dictation..
It usually takes me twice the time to transcribe the work. If the doc is easy and you can go right from one template/document to the next, it should only take you like 4 hours at the most. 10-12 hours is an awful long time. What kind of interruptions are you getting.
What is the correct way to type "q 4 hours?" I have never typed

I've always written out the word hours

if it's dictated. If it's not dictated as part of the time, I don't add it. Some dictators will just say *0-8-hundred* and I just transcribe it 0800.
mph is the correct way to abbreviate miles per hours, however,
Subject: mph is the correct way to abbreviate miles per hours, however,
if that is what he dictates, then I would use mph, or you can also spell it out miles per hour, both are acceptable, sometimes also depends on the client preference. If you spell it out though, you can get more characters for your line count!

I would do 60%. I have several doctors that will say 60 (as in ) 6-0. Clarifying the numbers so you don't put 16. They do 50, 5-0 so you don't put 15 because they sound close. It just sounds like sixty-six-zero. Put what you feel is right but I would be from experienc it is 60%

I would recommend getting Stedman's Infectious Disease and Organisms book. It has everything (well..pretty much) listed both by genera and species and shows any subspecies.
I found this website as well. It should help. Its microbewiki. http://microbewiki.kenyon.edu/index.php/MicrobeWiki

means after, so post phlebotomy would mean after a phlebotomy. It could be any time after, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, etc. The O in post is a long sound, not short. It could also be past phlebotomy or, as you say, just a false start.
