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 ...
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?Â

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 ...
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. ...
ASR printed "thru" in a couple places where it really should have been through. I always thought it was slang, but looked it up and apparently its a word but used very rarely and "considered out of place outside the most informal contexts." Why oh why is ASR deciding to use it? Is there an MT out there that ASR decided to become attached to or do the techs who program ASR really bored? They should pick just a few of the best MTs for each BOB, those who all have similar st ...
