How do you transcribe when the doc dictates Nitroglycerine drip 3 mikes per kilo per minute?  I know I have had this before, but cannot remember what I decided was proper.  Thanks for your help.

Yes, she has been talking about applying for another job.  It would make sense to follow the bread crumbs.  First entire reports are posted, then what appears to be test questions are posted.  I can't help but wonder if those entire reports where from the company she may be applying to.  It did raise my curiosity level about how she got a job transcribing reports of that level of difficulty; however, if you add entire report plus test questions with her statements of applying for another job, she could very well be getting the people on this board to help her land a new job.


Of course getting it and keeping it are two different things.

Subject: This explains what it is:

"...The results showed that the autism group and both their receptive language and nonverbal IQ-matched controls imitated familiar actions with realistic objects (evidence for functional play) and placeholder objects (evidence for symbolic play) after delays ranging from 24 hours to 3 weeks. Experiment 2 tested familiar three-step event sequences in which a placeholder object was substituted for the second step in half the events. The results showed that the autism group remembered as many of the actions with the placeholder objects as the language-matched controls and as many correctly ordered sequences, a finding that supports a symbolic-delay (rather then deficit) hypothesis."

"as well as" usage
Subject: "as well as" usage

I have a dictator that constantly uses "as well as" in the following manner:
"The patient is treated for a variety of issues including hyperlipidemia, hypertension, LVH, as well as generalized risk factor modification."
Shouldn't there be an "and" before LVH to make "as well as" work in this sentence? I read that "as well as" does not mean "and" - any help?
TIA

Modifier -22 is used in conjunction with a surgery code, that explains that it was complex or more d
Subject: Modifier -22 is used in conjunction with a surgery code, that explains that it was complex or more difficult.

I am a MT and a medical biller. Say for instance we use a regular surgery code 29880 (arthroscopy of the knee) and we might add a -22 if this procedure was more difficult than usual. We increase our fees for the surgery due to the difficulty, thus the -22 indicates why we upped our fees. Hope this helps and was not too confusing.

"as well as" does not equal "and"
Subject: "as well as" does not equal "and"

i.e., the phrase isn't a conjunction and doesn't get treated the same way in a sentence. So your first choice is correct. I find that a lot of docs dictate w, x, y as well as z. I always change this to w, x and y as well as z.

Good catch.

I just looked up adenosine cardiolite and found that it was a chemical stress test. I am wondering now if JST would be *TST* for thallium stress test, or EST for exercise stress test. It has to be some kind of stress test. sorry about other post.
