Multitasking.... to save one's sanity

People, PLEASE PAY ATTENTION! Healthcare documentation in the US has become UTTERLY CHAOTIC. 1. We have elected in the US to become the "medical brain-drain" of the world. By this, I mean that people who SHOULD BE DELIVERING HEALTHCARE TO THEIR OWN COUNTRIES are, instead, electing to MAKE MONEY IN THE U.S. 2. MANY OF THESE PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE THE ENGLISH SKILLS TO CREATE ACCURATE MEDICAL DOCUMENTATION FOR PATIENTS. 3. The time has come to reveal the critical issu ...

I have thought about it, did some financial figuring for paying my bills, and researched different schools in my area that offer practcal nursing classes WITH the option to advance to R.N. once working and.... I AM QUITTING within the next 6-7 months. I HATE HATE HATE NUANCE and everything it stands for, and I am tired of being kicked around and stolen from. There have been SO many MLS quit from just my team, and I can promise you I am going to be the next one to go AS SOON AS HUMANLY POS ...

used those little emoticon thingies. I don't know many of them, but I understand there are dozens. These could obviously be used in our reports so we don't get paid for actual words... If prognosis is guarded, use that little frownie face. That heart thing could be used for dozens of things. Wow, docs could just use their "smart" phones to enter gibberish abbreviations and signs and MQ could just have us edit them for no money whatsoever. What's the world coming to ...

the last time my computer crashed I lost them ALL and I am now in the process of re-entering them...wow it's so much work. I am kicking myself for not figuring out how to save them before, but I want to make sure this doesn't happen again. Any advice would be so very appreciated!!! ...

I am new to editscript and have worked a long time on another platform. Can someone tell me where the save button or icon is to save changes/corrections? I really would appreciate your help here. I realize this is probably some little something I am missing, but I sure would feel better if I could just find it and save changes before uploading to make sure changes were saved. Thank you in advance. ...

but how do you do this? I tried to forward an email to another email address and it gets blocked (restricted - can't send). If you get laid off/fired you lose access to your email immediately. So I don't understand how someone here saves any on these emails. ...

From each paycheck? Is it 15%? I might be becoming one. ...

I figure there must be a way. Thanks for any help. ...

How do I save my expansions so they will not be lost. I have some save on a thing I bought at Wal-Mart, but back in the days when 1-800 Dictate was a real help, they saved it for me. I do not remember how to do it. TIA. ...

Have had absolutely NO problems with the new 6.1 DQS until today and then right in the middle of a long staight type report (wouldn't you know) everything started locking up. I looked down at task bar and saw a message that said virus scan windows workstations (group task) was running and then auto-save kicked in every few minutes. Finally managed to struggle through it and then logged out. I can't afford to sit there and not be to perform adequately while the clock is t ...

This particular doc is super-annoying. He word salads/mumbles/sputters/, says things he thinks are funny and then laughs at his own "joke" (as in "I told the patient not to set himself on fire again while smoking crack heh-heh-heh"), and tonight he clearly and deliberately enunciated a phrase and then said, "I thought you people would have gotten this by now." WTF??? Among other things, this guy could not key in the correct number of a report if there were only 1 button on hi ...

As many of you know, EMR companies charge fees upwards of 15,000 dollars to allow transcription companies to integrate with them. This barrier to entry will lead to us all being replaced by voice recognition or point and click unless we all do something. There is no reason transcriptionists can not co-exist with EMR's. Doctors still need someone to type their records up for them. It is simply a faster and a more efficient use of resources to keep us in the loop. Eliminating these EMR fees ...

Is there any way to save all those entries that are now in the Shorthand system (which I suspect will be removed when my Nuance software is removed on my last day)? ...

I have never been on an acct where every report is impossible to understand and the style is so reckless and non caring on the part of the dictator. I feel like I am in a Third World country. Please don't call me a bigot (as I have been before) for complaining about the sad state of dictating. I had an Asian pediatrician when my children were young and because I couldn't understand every word had to ask the nurse or receptionist to read from the file because I did not want to hurt his ...

I think that is one thing that is slowing my computer down. I notice it gets real sluggish and then the "Auto Save" flases in the bottom tool bar. ...

I am using some of these but still use the mouse. Does everyone else do this or do you find that it is more productive to use all those shortcut keys? Thanks so much. Going broke here. ...

I work on eBTXT and am told there is no way for me to relisten to the audio after it goes to QA, but of course my TSM can, which gets me nowhere. Is there a way to save the voice file to my computer? I would of course delete any patient demographics. I hate not being able to relisten to my reports that QA reviewed, especially since they're just guessing and changing what they want. I haven't been able to locate anywhere on my computer where files are stored even ...

to your desktop, save any old performance reports to show changes that happen before and after, anything showing changes in pay before and after, before you get locked out of email. This "Grid Scandal" has Class Action Suit written all over it. When you are finally forced out for "nonperformance" then you have a paper trail. Nuance is going to unleash the full fury of QA upon us to catch every misplaced comma in order to dock our pay as much as they can, and when you are finall ...

I am now switching to cpl from an hourly rate. What short cuts can be used to save time? Wondering about voice recognition to be used by a transcriptionist! Has anyone heard of a transcriptionist using this type of software to complete reports faster and then editing these as you listen??? Just wondering! ...

Now that I have your attention . . .it is THAT TIME of year again. Before you order your 2013 code books, remember that there is only one ICD-9 diagnosis code change for 2013. You do not need to buy a new book this year. Just get the change from the CDC website and add it by hand. Same with the procedures. There will be a gazillion CPT changes, sad to say, so get a head start on those. The CPT books should be available soon, if not already. The AMA publishes ...

I am currently running microsoft professional 2007 and will be changing to MS professional 2003 due to a job change. I did some searches on how to copy my current auto-text (but sounds too confusing to me) and transfer to MS professional 2003. Is there a way to do this that is not too complicated to explain? Also, I do not have a flash drive, so can I copy this on a CD and then transfer to 2003. Thanks for any help. ...

I just installed MS Word 2007 & (an upgrade from 2002). I want the default document to be in a particular color & I can't seem to get it to work. I know I can just change the Page Color in Print Layout once the document opens but I want it to be my default color for every document & not have to make that change each time I open a new document. I have tried everything I can think of & I know it shouldn't be this difficult (& very well may not ...

making about a dollar in a half hour of listening to some lost intern flip through papers while some jackass sitting next to her chatted with someone else at the top of his lungs. Instead of trying to save MT, for god's sake, save yourself! If you like health care, study, work hard and find a good career that pays you what you are worth, don't settle for pennies doing piecemeal work like someone in a third world sweat shop. Most MTs are smart enough to become nurs ...
