initials for resident/dr/mt - jess
Posted: Jul 12, 2010
Help please:)
I work at a residency clinic and was wondering how to sign off a letter if you want to put the resident's initials (the one dictating), the precepting doctor and then your initials. Usually they tell us just to put our initials on a new line, i.e. /mt.
For a doctor you would do: DR/mt, but what about the resident? Do you put both sets of initials? Thanks!
Ask your supervisor, this could be different per facility. - NM

they're really not particular... - jess
[ In Reply To ..]I was just wondering what the common way to put it would be. They are fine with me just putting /mt. Thanks!
The way I've done it most is MD/res/mt. - but that is just me. nm

A new ESL dictating a DS. Can't speed him up because he's too "new" (to this country?). He is spelling every other word!!!!!!

On top of that, the report is 28 minutes long!!! Should never have gotten out of bed this morning. LOL I do feel bad for him that he doesn't realize he doesn't have to spell every other ...

Resident Physician
Nov 26, 2010
I have alway been told when in doubt, leave a blank. Resident did not give attending physician's name. There was a doctor's name in the hearder as attending, but I was not sure so I left the attending line blank at the bottom of the report. My boss calls me and tell s me to go on a limb and guess in the future. I do not like those ethics because it leaves me up for problems in the future. Comments welcomed. ...

I've got a resident dictating and is on the PE. "Blood pressure 110/80 and ___________ was 65 and regular." I know that the blank would be heart rate, but the res says something like "balance" or "bowels"....is there a new term or an old one that has escaped me? TIA ...

How Do You Type Your Initials On A Report?

I have always typed my initials with the doctor then me as ABC/def. That is the way I was taught when I got my MA degree and have always seen it as that until I started working for this office. They type it ABC:def or ABC;def. Nothing is consistent and seems like everyone does whatever they feel like. Also, when typing a note for a PA and CRNP I always put their initials and then the initials of the doctor and then mine such as ABC/DEF/ghi and I have not seen one report t ...

Fiesa - QA Has The Initials HBE (home-based Employee?)
Jun 09, 2014
If a QA has the initials HBE (home-based employee?), does anyone know if they are offshore? If they are US, why don't they have US in front of their number? These people seem to be the nastiest of the bunch and the most nit-picking. I just failed a post-audit because I missed out the word "the" where it made absolutely no difference to the meaning. They also seem to make the most errors as I got a few critical errors reversed recently and it was the QAs with the initials HBE who were ...
