He reports that he has seen his doctor with regard to his urethral trauma, and his S/L: lift (LIFT?) system is working well.
He is status post right femoral to popliteal artery bypass graft...
Should this be written as right femoral-popliteal artery bypass graft?
TIA!!

A lot of the questions you have been
Subject: A lot of the questions you have been
asking are very, very basic. You might be getting in over your head if these terms are unfamiliar to you. Maybe you are just nervous about taking a test and are struggling because of that. I hope that is the case. However, it is my opinion that asking for others for help on a test is cheating. I'm sure you probably didn't think of it this way, otherwise you would not have shared at this point that you are testing. Iknow you are desperate for help, but the company is testing YOU, not us on the word board. You have to stand on your own skills when testing. If you don't pass, then it means you are not ready. Good luck to you.

Questions and jobs
I place a lot of blame on the companies and hospitals that hire untrained transcriptionists because they think anyone can do it, so why not hire people who work cheaply. A lot of these MTs have no medical knowledge and no idea how to do any kind of research. I have known on-site hospital MTs who did not even have reference books, either provided by the hospital or their own. You can't blame the MTs in this situation completely as they are expected to do work without the knowledge or tools.

Test questions
Subject: Test questions
Why NOT post test questions here? Wouldn't this be considered a valid resource if one were working at home? When I took my test, they said go ahead and use the internet, use whatever you like, do whatever you have to. All that matters in the long run is that the work you do is correct and of high quality.
