A minor error in an ILP report - out of 36 errors.


Posted: Aug 02, 2012

Transcribed:  "...which they say they has at home and it is cool."

Dictated:  "...which they say they have at home and at school."

This is not an ASR report.  It was actually typed this way. This is just one of the minor errors.  I don't even count things like commas, have/has, and other grammar errors.

why aren't they held to 99% like us? - what a joke

this place is dreadful

and another thing - OP

This report was sent to QA because of a single blank and was not 100% review. The only reason I decided to read the whole thing was because next to the blank the ILP typed "cardiac erythema." This would have went straight to the client otherwise.

see that's what I was saying the other day - downtime

I can't wait to leave this behind and let them figure it out for themselves. MModal and Mumbai deserve each other.

Because - old and burned out

They are trying to chip away at our salaries to make them as low as possible while the ILPs are already making as little as possible.

Holy Cow - anon

Worse then taking our jobs is that these are the medical reports for you, me, our kids, our whole family. How does this not put patient's in danger. If they are making this kind of mistake on easy, normal words what is showing up on our medication lists.

This is ridiculous. They cannot possibly think the tradeoff of cheap labor is worth it.

They keep after us for putting a patient's life in danger for missing a comma but this kind of work is acceptable???

Probably the same person who typed the standard - old and burned out

I recently pulled up a couple of standards for new docs on our accounts and could hardly believe my eyes. Not only did no one at MM look at them before they were entered but someone had to transcribe them like that in the first place. Wrong format, many misspellings, etc. Since there was no voice file I could not compare what was said to what was transcribed but I bet it would have been hilarious.

Minor ASR Annoyance
Jan 08, 2010

Not to add to the litany of complaints about ASR - but it's just so annoying the way whenever the dictator uses the word "period" - as in, "blah blah blah for a prolonged period of time" - ASR puts in a PERIOD and ends the sentence right there.  ARGH. Okay, that's all.  Just a minor vent.       ...

I've been out of MT for a few years to go back to college after spending a decade at the daily grind but finances require me to go back to work and so I'm crawling back to the industry again. Anyone know of any companies (nationals fine by me) who are hiring for clinic work?

An Error I See A Lot

An error I see very often while doing QA, even though it has no impact on patient care, is a missing comma after the year on a full date, or missing comma after city and state.  I'm not trying to nag, just trying to help because, when audited, the powers that be will ding you for this and laugh maniacally.  Here are the rules in the style guide and BOS for any who want to argue.
