My primary acct is a verbatim but am allowed to make grammatical corrections as long as it does not change the meaning. One of my docs dictated *monna releaser*. After getting my laugh for the day, I typed *I am going to release her*....this one was not an ESL. Gotta getta good laugh once in a while to keep sanity....

I think I have come to that conclusion, also.  There is just too much for me to try to fix it all.  I'm not sure I would even know where to begin.  There is just so much garbage...  Thanks for verifying my thoughts, though.... :)

Would this be actual "verbatim" transcription or correct, per BOS? What would vertaim be when you have to type exactly what they say even if it is not proper? I think that is what the OP was asking. Now I am curious.

Med called Tensol?
Subject: Med called Tensol?

Anyone heard of this? Cannot locate in my references. Went online and researched; only found TenSal (saline) and Tensol (a site in Malta). Given context, TenSal is not a candidate IMO.

Context: However, toward the end of the hospitalization, she was barely able to take any medication or liquid, and we discontinued all oral medications. We did continue the patient on suspension of Roxanol and Ativan and ---TENSOL--- to keep her as comfortable as possible. In fact, she was comfortable throughout her hospice stay.

PPD is a test for tuberculosis.  You aren't just writing a document to appease the doctor.  You are writing a legal document that many other people may want to read, including an insurance auditor or a lawyer, neither of which may have any clue what PPD means EVEN IN THE CONTEXT OF THE SENTENCE and will have no inclination to look it up.


That's just me, someone who audits physician records and slaps them on the wrists for this like this, but you do want you want.

General surgeon talking about frozen section pathologic exam of squamous cell carcinoma lesion. First frozen section came back with positive margins so he went back to excise a second specimen which he submitted S/L "on fos" with the new margin up. This is a verbatim account and this dictator is on 100% QA (all reports) since he is so SPECIAL. I referenced the other reports in his MD data base and found "en Fos" which would have been put there by QA before the report was signed off to the hospital. I can't find this anywhere and was wondering if anybody has a clue?

If doc says "gasenous indigestion" and you are supposed to type verbatim, do you leave it gasenous? It's gaseous right?
Sorry, stupid question?
verbatim?--gasenous?
Subject: verbatim?--gasenous?

When typing verbatim would you commonly use a virgule like that? This verbatim thing is new to me and its got me all turned around. I cant tell if doc is saying "gasenous (meaning gaseous) indigestion" or if he is saying two symptoms the patient had, gassiness and indigestion. He says them right in a row like that.
