Does MQ contribute at all to the cost of taking the CMT test? I have come across 2 jobs that require you to be a CMT. I know I'm asking a lot but just wondering. TIA.
This is silly
Not only do we need to follow CP guidelines but BOS and then DocQscribe standards.
So even if you have the first 2, the third will get you audit.
Why can't they spend the money and create one set of rules to follow and be done with it.
We work on production now. checking on previous dictated reports and then double checking guidelines from all three areas ??
and when you send in a blank now I am also being questioned about the audio etc.&nb ...

Commentators have had fun with the new system of medical diagnostic codes (denominated in from four to ten digits each) scheduled to take effect in October 2015, and the Ć¢Healthcare DiveĆ¢ blog had its laughs in a July post.

I have scoured all settings, to no avail. Also, what I had fixed before, when I type p.o. I get p.O. Any ideas how to get rid of the capital O. I have taken out all autoinserts in settings to avoid caps at beginning of new sentences, etc. This is getting annoying, I waste a lot of time going back to delete ...
Way to go Nuance!
I had actually hoped we'd at least get copays this time, even if it meant paying more.
Disgusting. Plain and simple. Having insurance that you can barely afford and can't even use because of the obscenely high deductible and no co-pays is ridiculous.
This year is even more special - we are signing up for something we don't even know that we can afford because of the compensation changes they have promised.
I am going to check into opting out a ...
I don't know where they get all of their silly ideas, one new, amazing idea after another. You would think they would look back at the last several silly ideas they've had that didn't work and use some common sense, but that doesn't happen.
It's always the idea to end all ideas, but those ideas never end well.
Just a vent. ...
