As a newbie I greatly appreciate anyone who is willing to give their time and knowledge to help me, or any newbie, out. What I dont understand is why people with no patience and an obvious knack for being rude come to these boards and post when clearly they have no intention of helping anyone.
Again, I thank all of the "oldies" who offer help and kindness to the "newbies".

I have an ortho doc that insists on using it the way the dictionary shows it, follow-up. He is not of old school, very young and a professor. Says it is his biggest pet peeve to see it ever used without the hyphen, and doesn't care much for BOS rules.
So, when in doubt, I do it exactly the way the dictator wants it no matter what I think.

It honestly depends on your employer's guidelines. Check with your Editor/QA staff. Sometimes there is just no way to make a doc make sense on paper without changing everything around and so it's easier just to really type verbatim; some docs only need a tweak here and there, so you really need to find out what 'verbatim' means as applied to the account you are working on.

leeway you have. With the comma there, it looks strange. If you have to transcribe verbatim, I would put a hyphen....thus, * New patient - arm pain...* If you have more leeway you could make a sentence * This is a new patient with a chief complaint of arm pain *. If that is too much and looks like you are padding lines, then you could try just * New patient with arm pain *

I think it depends on the state where you want the information.
type for a hospital in Washington state, and they have a state licensure site with just about everything in the same site (i.e. physicians and physical therapists, nurses, etc. )
On the other hand, Arizona has only the doctors in its doctor database, and you have go to the Arizona physical therapist site to search for them.
Generally, when I first start typing a particular state, it takes a while to build up a set of search sites, but as I find them I add them to my favorites and then create a category for that state, so I don't have to search so much the next time.
Have a great day.
it depends
Subject: it depends
It depends on if it is modifying something.
The diameter of the wound is 1 cm.
There is a 2-cm length length discrepancy.
That's how I decide whether to hyphenate or not. On plural numbers, you can something tell if it should be hyphenated if it is said singular - i.e. six centimeters = 6 cm or six centimeter difference 6-cm difference
does that help?

I think it would depend on the specifics for that account - the hospital I work for would want it to read: 110 to 120 over 70 systolic.
