"cc" is a possible future listing in JCAHO "do not use list" sm
Subject: "cc" is a possible future listing in JCAHO "do not use list" sm

JCAHO requires its members to follow an official "do not use list" and "cc" is being considered for possible future inclusion in the JCAHO "do not use list" to be replaced by "mL" because it can be misread as U or unit when poorly WRITTEN...typing it is not as problematic but I go ahead and change it to mL to encourage dictators to make the "mental shift" away from "cc" ...hope that helps! see this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_medical_abbreviations

Subject: patient has Graves hyperthyroidism..he is listing lab values & one the recording because fuzzy..sm

Lab tests done at your office on 08/01/07 indicated a free T4 of 4.36 (0.8 to 1.9), T3 was 390 (72 to 170), and a TSH of less than 0.01.  A WBC count was slightly low at 3.5 (3.9 to 11.3), hemoglobin was 12.5, hematocrit 37.6, _____ of 77 (80 to 102). 


The blank sounds like LEV-IN AND CBU of 77.


??? any thoughts on what lab value this could be based on the normal range of 80 to 102?  thanks.

She stated the account was verbatim, and clients expect to get what they pay for. We can't just change account directions because we feel like it. That would be telling the client, "Sure, I'll do your account verbatim, but only when I feel like it. If I want to change something, I will."

I don't hardly think that would go over well with the client. With a verbatim account, the client expects the finished report to reflect exactly what was dictated -- nothing more, nothing less. If the account wants the MTs to expand abbreviations, they wouldn't ask for a verbatim account.

I thought for sure the first part was "he was still" but my son, hearing me listen to it over and over, actually got that it was "he was told" and then I was able to get the rest.  "He was told about a lupus anticoagulant."  That makes a little more sense than what I had!  Thanks for the help though!  That was a good idea.

about many things, including how many contributions I've made to this forum. 


You appear to be lying in wait until you see a punctuation question you can pounce on with "Since when? Who said? What rule? NO NO."  It is a terrible shame because you seem to know a bit about punctuation at least. Maybe you should spend a little less time on grammar and a little more time on manners.   


I am not trying to pick a fight, I merely made a suggestion to enhance the general experience of using this forum.  You obviously think you are socially acceptable, so I guess folks will have to endure.

Coabnormality doesn't seem to be a word, but maybe he's just making it up.  Either that or it's hetergeneous [something else?] abnormality, but I can't think of what.
