Number 7.0 thousand? - Ann H.


Posted: Apr 29, 2010

The doctor is dictating a number that he states as "7.0 thousand."  How would you type this?  My idea is that should be 7.0000. 

7000 - not 7.0000

BOS2 and JCAHO say to drop trailing zeros, 7.0 to 7, but because of the thousand, I would type as 7000.

I would put it just as you did the first time as dictated. 7.0 thousand is actually 7000. 7.0000 is actual 7 and 0 ten thousandths.

We transcribe 7000. - nm

Set Number Of Reports
Jul 29, 2010

Something new I have noticed about several different companies is how they give you a set limit of reports when first starting out...Anyway, we are paid based on production.  How is someone supposed to live on say 10 reports a day for 2 weeks?  To me, I find that to be very insulting, and needing to pay my bills, it's just not something I could do.  It would be similar to someone who is being paid by the hour being limited to 3 hours a day in their first 2 weeks of their new ...
