Just something I want to pass along that could be helpful

What exactly is pass record tool? This is the only definition/reference I can find for dictated PASSR (spelled by dictator) and not sure it is even medical. We are suppose to expand abbreviations unless unsure of definition and I hate to send blanks to QA if I can avoid it. ...

I'd like to post my tips for getting through the day: I have at least 8 different accounts (so far, keep getting more...) I made a print out of each client profile, but for quick reference I have colored post it notes with tips like: stacked/nc (for H&P and ROS), means stacked, mixed case (no caps...) pt name (+ or -), patient's name allowed or not. date format # Some accounts allow the date to ...

when you post you are NJA if you post the TSM initials, since they are still calling for OT. ...

I got an email today with a bunch of FYI... do it this way, type it that way. I suppose it will be helpful at some point, but I just got feedback... back and for the first time ever I was corrected to type H and P instead of H&P. How do you type it, does anyone know how it is supposed to be? I think H and P looks stupid. Also, doc dictated vital signs: see nursing notes and then went back later and changed it to unremarkable. The QA changed it back to see nursi ...

Have a hospital where you are to phonetically spell name if not given (it wasn't except to call him "Steven") QA so kindly sent me QA feedback and the only thing on there was that apparently Steven was actually spelled "Stephun." Is that ACTUALLY going to be of any help in the future? QA wonders why we have an attitude? DON'T WASTE ANY MORE OF MY TIME THAN IS ALREADY BEING WASTED. ...

My kitty, who used to lie quietly under my chair, has just taken to sitting under my desk and "helping" me get through my transcription by pushing the foot pedal when I take my foot of it. Short of putting her in the other room, which I may have to do, does anyone have any ideas how to get her to stop this? She has also started licking my feet. And yes, she has fresh water, clean litter box, and I just fed her. ...

Some of you don't need me to tell you this, but others might benefit from this advice. Reading through the posts on this coding training, I am seeing some legitimate questions and concerns, but also some that are so off the wall that they are either the product of the world's worst paranoid or someone who is intentionally trying to discourage you. The content and tone is a lot like some of the negativity that gets posted on the coding board every time some one asks about coding ...

Someone else has already suggested what I was going to say, going over your resume and making some changes. Another good idea is to get together with some MTs who are successful. Just as negativism rubs off, so does success. I've learned quite a bit from my friends who were successful years before I was. They've been at it a long time and are still going strong. Just as in any career, we each have our ups and downs, but we do well overall. Part of the reason why is, we keep learning f ...

Hello: Anyone work for or have any helpful info on K&R Consulting? Thinking of applying to yesterday's ad. ...

A lot (if not most) of the commands are the same in 7.1 that you're used to. The training encompassed everything, not just new information. There are just a few additions, is all. You still upload the same, get the QA note the same, back to ADT the same, etc. ...

I was thinking of something the other day: We all have our favorite web sites which we have found on our own, whether it be for surgical web sites, chemo drugs, bacterial finder, orthopedic test words, neuro words, etc. How about we post said web sites here with a short description as to what they are for. It would be a good way to help each other out Anyone agree? Thanks! ...

Just want to make a list of helpful MT websites. 1. www.mtstars.com add more helpful websites to this list. amanda ...

As someone who worked as a professional full-time MT for 31 years (most of those years at home), I've learned the ropes the hard way when transitioning over to the "public workplace." I'm here to offer encouragement to others who need to find another career in order to make a decent living. I do still work 15-20 hours at home as an MT online, but I work a full time job in a completely different sector during the day. I finally have the job of my dreams, and I absolute ...

Since the report is already typed and we are just editing I know I should be going faster than I am. Sometimes I spend as much time as I do if it was regular typing, but I know I should be going faster. Do people go faster on VR and if so do you have any suggestions that will help. Thanks, ...

Used it twice today already. ...

Looking for any helpful information on this company please. I have searched the archives but nothing current. Thank you. ...

Patient is on vitamin D, aspirin, (Med Pass), omeprozole, MiraLax, sertaline, simvastatin, Spiriva, Symbicort.... This is a patient with pancytopenia..if that helps... ...

I've taken all of these tests one after another and some I pass, some I don't. I have the experience and did QA for 5 years, so I have no idea why I'm not passing them. I'm growing tired and weary. Anyone else having problems testing? ...

Does it seem like no matter what you do it is not good enough? Here lately it seems like they only audit the worst dictator. The only reports they have audited for me lately have been ESLs lately. Maybe that is their way of trying to get rid of me. Maybe they want to thin the herd and just send it all to India. I just hope to find something soon outside of MT. I have been looking. ...

Is this really true? I was already on the fence about it....I despise ADHI but at the same time realize having CMT could possibly help find a job and sometimes (rarely) get a CMT diff. Not to mention the test cost $300 whether you pass or not. So now you have to pay to pass the RMT? This can't be true. I mean, if you can pass the CMT you should be able to pass the RMT w/o having to PAY for it. ...

Someone just asked, so I'll answer. Yes, it is very possible. I graduated 1 1/2 years ago from Andrews School but then waited to take the exams (personal reasons). I just started back on track to get the credentials. I passed the CPC this fall and passed the CCS this week. Even with the long delay between the end of school and my credentialing exams, I passed both on the first try. I have NOT worked a single day as a coder. I am ...

I recently purchased a new computer with Windows 8.1 on it. My old computer had Word 2003 and Steadmans 2006 installed on it. I could not get the Steadmans 2006 to load on the new computer so as a result, I went for the 15-day trial of Spellex, since Stedman's doesn't offer anything like that. I called Spellex today (and BTW, they are based in Tampa, FL), and said that I would not be able to purchase the program until next Friday and I only had 2 days left of my ...

Does anyone have a clue about the pass/fail that is in Fiesa today? Just noticed mine and I suppose it has something to do with the changes rolling out but I couldn't remember if we had received anything about it or not. Thanks! ...

Well after ten years as radiology transcriptionist I lost my job to new technology. Any helpful hints on finding a new job, what the market is for radiology transcriptiionists, is there any hope for me? ...

I know that the tests given by MTSOs are from mttest.com and that they are pass/fail tests. Does anyone know what the passing percentage is? One strike, you're out? How does this work? Thanks. ...

Here is a link to the pass/fail rates for AHIMA certification exams. http://www.ahima.org/certification/documents/2007_2009_CertificationExamPassRates.pdf Please note that even AHIMA itself recommends a minimum of 3 years of hospital coding experience before attempting the CCS exam, and they have good reason for doing so. The test is very challenging. Yes, people may pass without that experience, but most will not. This is not an inexpensive exam, either. The fig ...

Then how come I passed a test for another company with flying colors and am waiting for a call from recruiter, not getting my hopes up, but hopefully they do cal -- serioulsy I need something to hold on to, just got another e-mail reminding me about how much I do suck :( ...
