Doctor having duh moment

Well it's amazing when you have an AHA moment, but this one not so much. I have hated this job for many, many months now and continue to dred working every day which hey is 6 out of 7 days a week...woohoo!!! I have just recently started seeing a therapist for issues with myself, mostly I think low self esteem that I thought was dating way way back in the day and I wanted to get better so my kids wouldn't learn certain behaviors from me. All of a sudden this morning, I am cr ...

I can't imagine that after 10 years of transcription I haven't heard whatever this is when he says it so nonchalantly as if I should know it, but I have no idea what he's talking about and so am wondering if this is something simple and I'm just sitting here like DUUUUUH... for no reason. This is on a patient who is being discharged after back surgery, laminectomy, diskectomy, decompression, arthrodesis, etc., and doc says: "...was transferred to the Neuro Critical Care Uni ...

I usually cannot complain too much about the ASR on my accounts. I am one of the very few lucky ones....I know. However, this is certainly not the case today! OMG...I think I'm going to have a coronary. The ASR is making up stuff kind of like autocorrect on your smartphone. We are not allowed to guess on painfully obvious things...why in the *&%^%% does this ASR think it should fill in gaps. Yes, some physician somewhere might have completed the sente ...

I was feeling really crappy about a report that took me forever to get through because the dictator was so terrible, not to mention I was already feeling down because I am already on 100% QA for failing a recent audit, so I knew they were really gonna tear me apart. I was almost too afraid to look at it after QA, but it turned out not to be so bad, and they even commented on how bad it was and that I did a good job with what I had to work with. It's the little victories nowadays ...

Close your eyes and imagine what would happen if all American MTs went on strike and refused to do VR anymore, and the hospitals got the reports in their unedited glory. I'd say there'd be a panic in the hospital like this country hasn't seen since the stock market crashed in 1929. ...

Typed a friendly, clear, efficient doctor on an account I have never heard of before and will probably never have again, but he was dictating on a "pleasantly demented woman" and exam was "a little difficult" due to the fact that she "sang throughout the entire exam." It just made me smile to think of the elderly lady sitting there singing while he was trying to listen to her heart and lungs. I'll take whatever smiles I can get these days... ...

today. She left a phone number with me to contact PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, if you can work. They are in a bind. Well now, I said I could work a little while but I haven't been an employee for quite a while. YEAH, They still prove how organization should work, yeah?!!!!!!!!!!!!lololololol ...

Can someone please help me remember how to get into Remedy? I have a severe case of the Monday mornings right now, and I have misplaced my cheat sheet with my 1000 ways to get into my work computer. Thanks in advance! ...

20 years ago when the DRG's hit the hospitals, one was complaing to the other... "they treat doctors like a bunch of old dogs now". Well, that's how MTs are being treated now. Why on God's green earth do the MT services require all MT's to work at least one weekend day every week (Friday's and Monday's don't count). Every ad I see on the Job Seeker board requires weekends. Are they sadistic or something. Why do we put u ...

Ok, it seems that this word has NEVER come up for me in the past. I have a new MD that states "we proceeded with the injection" in almost all his notes, and yet my spellcheck doesn't recognize "proceeded" or "proceed", "procede" or any form of that word. It keeps wanting to change it to "precede" or "preceded." What's even wierder is that I can't seem to find "proceeded" in ANY dictionary! Webster's has "proceed" but doesn't list a past tense for this word like it ...

react if we went in their offices and talked so fast that they couldn't understand what we said, if we ate during our visit, or yawned and continued talking? I'm just going to wager a guess that they wouldn't appreciate it very much. Sometimes, I think it would be fun to try just to see their reactions. There are some that I transcribe that if I ever got the chance to do that I would. Have an ESL right now that's talking way too fast. Do they not ...

Rambles on, makes no sense throughout the dictation at all, does not make complete sentences, dictates on a patient in the WRONG chart constantly, follows no format, which is required by YOU, cuts himself off but yet when you can understand him, he has a "bright" moment and makes sense is an absolute joy to transcribe???? Oh, and did I mention that he only dictates every third day even though he sees patients on a daily basis???? Mini-vent over, back to the confusion ... TIA ...

It sounds like he says Plantar response is flexor bilaterally in his physical exam portion but he says it so fast I'm not sure I have it right. ...

Apologies from a physician who is stumbling over his words while valiantly making an effort to dictate clearly. Wish we had more docs like this. ...

while you take a long personal call. After all, I'm just a computer. ...

doesn't actually pause the recording. And saying "Unpause" doesn't make it start again. This isn't even the same doctor that calls me "computer." "Computer go back to the HPI and..." Beam me up!! ...

I got in trouble today because I put a wrong patient. The doctor dictated a billing number, name, and MRN. The MRN was had a different patient, but the billing number and the patient name matched the ADT screen. Not to mention the fact that he kept using "she" in the dictation and the MRN number matched a "he". So logically one would just think he had the wrong MRN and I didn't want another QA submission so I sent it through with the correct billing number, name, and ...

I need the address for Dr. Jill Rue, family doc in Kentucky or southern indiana. thx ...
