I was taught to transcribe military time without a colon, i.e. 1412. Is this still the way to do it? TIA.
military time
Subject: military time
I have always typed it without a colon, and for 20 years no one has told me to change it. Miliary time, because spoken in 100 hours, if you place the colon it changes that aspect.

Military time is alway typed out 0710 with the zero in front. Otherwise, 0001 or 1 minute after midnight would look pretty weird without all the zero and look like something totally different. This keeps things consistent and in order. Believe me, after 4 years in the Air Force myself and 9 years total as an Air Force wife, these things you never forget.

Page 392 of 2nd edition states:
"If the word hours is not dictated it may be added for clarity, but this is not absolutely necessary."
I got zapped on this a few years back so it stuck.
How to transcribe military time?
Subject: How to transcribe military time?
Regular time on the account is transcribe as HR:MN, if that makes a difference.
Dr dictates 0100 hours, how is this typed? 01:00 or 0100 hours or 0100 hrs or 0100 h? This isn't addressed in the account specifics.
Thanks.
Never use a colon for military time sm
Subject: Never use a colon for military time sm
And it should always be followed by the word "hours."
0100 hours
1300 hours
1645 hours
Sometimes the doctors will dictate it differently, but unless the account is verbatim, leave out the colon and put in the word "hours."
(Former Air Force member here - got that drilled into me during basic training.)
I'm guessing you mean military time?
Subject: I'm guessing you mean military time?
If so, it's just whatever numbers he says, i.e. TIME OF DEATH: 1300 hours or 1356 hours - type the hours as above with no colon. The first would be 1:00 p.m., the second example is 1:56 p.m. in civilian time. Do not translate what he gives you.
Just type it as the numerals above, no colon.

Depends on whether the account requires verbatim sm
Subject: Depends on whether the account requires verbatim sm
If they don't, I would change the tense to whatever is the norm for that account or that doctor.
If they do require verbatim, I would type it verbatim but let the QA preson know that the doctor had shifted tenses.
But that's just me....

On my account I can do VERY light editing for grammar, but that's about it. As the previous poster says, if you are on a verbatim account, you should type as dictated even if it's wrong...& if you are uncomfortable with this, leave a blank.

that diabetics with hypertension are the only ones who are ever hospitalized! Having that combination put a person at a higher risk for being hospitalized with complications, of course.
You don't have the credentials to make blanket statements, because just one diabetic person here with normal BP makes you WRONG. And you already have such a response.
