I never knew "thru" was a word

File it under Damned if you do.... Yesterday I had a report where they mention THORACENTESIS twice.... but... hmmm... poor quality, can they be saying PLEUROCENTESIS? So, like an idiot I look up old reports from this patient and there, in both old reports it says THORACENTESIS so that's what I went with.... Waiting for me in this mornings EMAIL....DING, DING... ...

Okay, I may be the last one to know this, but I thought the only QC audits I was getting were the ones showing up on the DQM QA Feedback screen where it says (1 unread) or (how many ever unread). When you click on them, if the report has been audited by your QC, it will have a percentage score. But that's just for the reports you sent in with a blank. To see the ones randomly selected and audited, you have to use the QA Feedback Search feature and put in a date range. For example, I j ...

I knew that sooner or later one of these Indian ESLs would revert back into speaking in their own tongue. I suspected that before but it was just their way of speaking English. I couldn't believe it when this guy today, midsentence, started talking in his Indian dialect. He laughed at himself, embarassed, then continued in English. I didn't find it funny. ...

I have been looking at different boards and needed to post some answers to a few questions I read. TRANSCRIPTION AS WE OR AS MOST OF US KNEW IT APPEARS TO BE GONE. ONE DOES NOT NEED TO LOOK FAR TO SEE THE ATTEMPTS TO SELL COMPETENT PROFESSIONAL MTS A "BILL OF GOODS" OR ---- IN OUR FACES AND TELL US IT IS RAINING. YES OSI OUTSOURCES AND HAS FOR MANY YEARS. TWO YEARS AGO WHEN SOME OF US WHO WORKED AT OSI ASKED ABOUT IT--WE WERE LIED TO BY THE COORDINATOR SAYING, "W ...

VR and which ones not to. I'm very rapidly beginning to remember why I wasn't particularly fond of VR. ...

I've been applying only to in house positions for hospitals and clinics. I refuse to work for any more MTSOs. The job ads that occasionally come up that are close enough to commute to are few and far between. In the last 4 years I've applied to quite a few of them, 3 since January this year. It's always the same old story: "The job is filled" is what I'm always told. Even for those 3 that granted me in-person interviews this year, it's alw ...

I have GOT TO GET OUT OF THIS SWEAT SHOP SO CALLED PROFESSION!! Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal filed the lawsuit on January 12, 2010. In the complaint, Blumenthal alleges that last May a portable disk drive containing Personal Health Information (PHI), social security numbers, and bank account numbers from about 1.5 million customers disappeared while in transit between Connecticut and California. The company did not inform any gover ...

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience or knew anything about InScribe? Is it a good company to work for? For the past month, I have been contacted a couple of times saying I would either be sent information about openings and also that someone would be calling me to help me get started, and neither one has happened. Is this typical? ...

I have noticed that my right index finger is a little bigger than the left, feeling a little tender, not real painful yet. I measured them and sure enough it IS bigger. Great, does this mean I'm getting arthritis or something? In my late 40s--am I old enough for this? Probably. I just hope this doesn't get any worse. I'll be in big trouble. I had to drop my medical insurance. And if I can't work, I don't know w ...

Did all the docs go out of town for the big Columbus Day celebrations? ...

I just need to vent…. I’ve been working part time as an IC for a hospital in the Midwest for about 10 months now. They actually found my resume online and contacted me. I was already working 2 other part time jobs which really took up a lot of my time, but of course, not much money involved, so I decided to take it. I did all the training and caught on very quickly. In the beginning, I was able to work whenever I wanted since work was plentiful. ...

Is there a way to import or convert my Bayscribe word expander file (thousands of entries) into 2010 MS Word's autocorrect and/or dictionary? Thank you. ...

I have Microsoft Word 2003. Is it possible to upgrade it online to Word 2003? A company I worked for for a short time did it. If it's possible, can someone give me the link? I looked on Microsoft.com but don't see it. ...

Is there a way in AutoCorrect (Word 2010) to change a comma to a period and then cap the next word to make VR go a little faster? The platform at my old company did this automatically, but MS Word does not : ( This is so frustrating having to change from a comma to a period (or vice versa)--which as you all know happens constantly...and then change the next word to be capitalized (or uncapped)....my wrists are killing me, not to mention it takes so much TIME..... There HAS to be a better ...

Is it possible to do this in MS Word 2010? I'm using AutoCorrect and there isn't a way to do it that I know of. What do all of you doing VR do for the CONSTANT having to change a comma to a period and cap the next word easily? Any suggestions would be SOOOOO very appreciated. ...

I will be changing from Word 2000 to Word 2003 and have a few questions. I am not that great at figuring tech stuff out so hopefully someone will be able to help me. Will changing from 2000 to 2003 affect anything on my computer at all, i.e., will all my other software work okay. I rely on my PC Shorthand expander and my electronic Stedman's books, plus how about my Stedman's medical spellchecker, will they all work the same or do I need to do anything to make sure th ...

Can anyone who works with Fox Transcribe tell me if you can copy and paste from word to word pad? Since word pad does not have spell check OR auto correct, I wondered about that. Thank you! ...

I have just started working in Dictaphone Word Client. I have Word 2003. When I open the Word Client it takes my own Word "hostage" and I cannot use it for other things. Is there a way to separate the two, so that I can still use my Word when I need to while still working in Word Client? ...

I'm using both Word 2003 and WP12 and am looking to transfer/copy my auto correct/quick words from Word into WP - any suggestions? ...

The MTSO that has hired me needs me to have Office 2010 Professional, whereas I have Office 2013 Professional. They said the only reason 2013 won't work is because of the Word version. I remember sometime back that there was a way to set your Word version to a previous version with the push of a button. I've searched the internet for clues, but all I see are instructions for converting 2007 to 2003. Nothing about converting 2013 to 2010. If I can't ge ...

This may be one of those, "well, everybody knows that," or not? In my system: When in Word 2010 if you right click on a word a drop down pops up and you can click on "look up" and it goes to the internet and looks up these words and gives info in a box on the right. Very helpful. ...

I am doing a diction of and Gasto Operative report on a patient who is having a End colostmy and Hartmann pouch resection! The doctor keeps dictating the work "parin" Example: Take down colostomy with segmental sigmoid resection and low pelvic EA stabled rectosigmoid anastomosis parin 31 mm end parin. I have referenced this in many ways and still come up with nothing... Does anyone have a clue what this is or what it means Thank you ...

Just have to vent. I have been filling out applications for days. I know MTSOs can set any requirements they want, but you would think that if there is a very specific requirement that instantly disqualifies some Medical Transcriptionists, that would be right up there at the top, BEFORE they ask you to sign in and answer a bunch of questions (including providing reference names and attaching a resume). I did all that, and THEN, I got the following message: "Thank you for your ...

Looking for recent information on this company. Couldn't find anything recent in the archives and really not sure if the comments I did find were for this company or not since there are other companies with the same name. Any input is appreciated. Thanks! ...

Have a new computer with windows 7. Haven't set it up yet. Can I install word 2003 and also whatever the latest word is (2007?). Should one be installed before the other? My computer tech retired and haven't found a new one yet. Thanks for any info. ...
