The account I type is "almost verbatim". We type subcu, but in the lab values we have to expand the workds (alkaline phosphatase, et cetera). If a word is dictated that is not a known abbreviation, we have to type it out. I think each account is different, and as the other poster said, they should have given you an client form so that you would know what the hospital expects. Sounds like your guy kinda got his tail in a crack and felt like he needed to unload on a poor, innocent MT who was just trying to do her job! Hang in there!  W'e're cheering for you!

Does your account use the BOS 2?
Subject: Does your account use the BOS 2?
That's the source of the "Don't capitalize it when it stands alone" rule. My suggestion would be to follow BOS if your account uses that and to be consistent. Stedman's is (are?) notorious for inconsistency with this sort of thing.

Go with what your QA tells you. It may be acceptable but the doctor may not like/want it done that way. I've found every account has different rules and preferences.

He just said the patient was *ambued and could not be intibated due to facial trauma*
So, looks like this is one of those that is up in the air and probably something to talk to company QA about?
Is this a verbatim account?
Subject: Is this a verbatim account?
If not, it would make more sense like this:
It would help beneficial organisms AND commensals bacteria colonize his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.
If not, then I would type:
It would help beneficial organisms, commensals bacteria colonozie his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.
Since they want the beneficial bacteria and commensals bacteria to colonize his colon, there is no need for a comma before colonize.

and as I said, that is how I was taught. Now, every account I've done wants it that way and it is that way on the Dangerous Abbreviation list...AND that's what I said - use mL not cc.

Do you have standards on this account?

Some doctors refer to standards or macros by number. If you're not sure, I would send this on to QA to be filled in correctly. These are obviously some macros or standards that he is referring to.

My previous company had us leave the names out unless they were pertinent to the patient's care such as a caretaker. I.e. Dictated: Patient's wife, Susan, stated that. Transcribed: Patient's wife stated that. I would ask your QA about that to be sure though.

Valsalva maneuver. Lots of docs turn it into a verb, so I would say if it is verbatim, what you have is how to spell it, all lower case.

I have been specializing in OPs for several years, (done everything else!), and love it, but we have doctors (have a few hospitals), who will give related system diagnoses and went them in one paragraph form with commas, as you wrote. But then, I have others that specify everything numbered. According the BOS from long ago, in Ops when listing diffent diagnoses, number them, but our rule from our company (owned by an MD!) is that, if they dictate in paragraph form, write it so, and if they dictate "numbered diagnoses," then put in numbered list fashion. Does that make any sense to you? Do you have account specifics for this doctor??
