scary VR error

A friend of mine was just fired from MQ with no warning whatsoever! Apparently she had CC'd the wrong doctor (very similar-sounding names, ESL dictator). I know this is a major HIPAA violation, but everyone makes mistakes...we are only human. My friend always had excellent QA audits above 98%, 15+ years as MT, no other issues with her work. You would think they would look at this on a case-by-case basis, consider past record, when it comes to firing someone on the spot like that. It is ...

doctor clearly states "a fair amount of adhesions;" ASR transcribed "some adhesions." That is so bizarre to me and if I wasn't really LISTENING and was just flying through proofreading, I would have missed it. Not particularly treatment-changing for the patient, but certainly incorrect. ASR just flat made up dictation there. Absolutely amazing. If I did that, I would be fired. ...

An app to help interns and residents figure out just what to do in the ER? There's an app for that? They need an app to treat me? IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM? omg http://exclusive.multibriefs.com/content/new-app-helps-med-students-diagnosis-quickly-in-er/medical-allied-healthcare ...

During my first visit with a new doctor yesterday, I wondered why I was not presented with the usual "book of history" to fill out beforehand. As the nurse was asking questions, she was busy clicking on pull-down menus, etc. On her computer screen was software called SOAPware, and there, formatted into SOAP format and all, I saw my replacement. Later, in the exam room, the FNP was using the software as well as we went along, after exam, labs, etc. I made a comment ...

I was just searching the web to find a type of surgical camera and found this on a used equiment site... Can you imagine...if THAT voice recognition worked as well as MQ's voice recognition... what kind of things might get taken out during surgery. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Surgical robot, AESOP, voice activated - $6,500 List: $75,000. MedCon: VG. Aesop model 2000 surgical robot, made by Computer motion medical robotics company. Also called an automated ...

A doctor who cannot pronounce encephalomalacia! She fumbles around with it for a while and then says "oh well, I will just spell it" and did so like she was asking a question (did spell it correctly though). This is an English speaking dictator with an MD credential. Must be a resident as she has a co-signer but, my God, she should be more familiar with terms by now you would think. She also fumbles around with common medication names and mg instead of mcg for Synthroid. Fo ...

Dictated: "The patient arrived from home by auto." VR's Version: "The patient arrived by curvilinear polo player." ...

First, VR was going to replace us. When that didn't work, now we -- American MTs -- are fine-tuning VR so the Indian MTs can replace us. And to make sure this happens, MTSOs are paying us unfair, unlivable wages to force us out, thus forcing clients to accept what they get from the Indian MTs because there won't be enough qualified American MTs left. I know this really isn't news, but I thought I'd share anyway. ...

I have this doctor I've been working with for a few years through a company, who is very old. He frequently loses his place while dictating and often doesn't make sense. Today has been bad already. One report he dictated 3 sentences that did not make sense, nor was it clear what he was really trying to say. Another report he dictated the exam, paused, started to dictate exam and then realized he already did, started with the impression, dictated #1, t ...

dictation found on the internet back in 2008. Just now reporting this apparently to the general public. Just saw this on Facebook. ...

This is getting so scary. It's more than just holiday slowdown and winter storms. Where is all the work? Please, please, please, if any CURRENT employee knows anything, I'm begging you to share with the rest of us. ...

Too long to post here, but this is a must read. Link below. ...

Just had one dictate that this teenager took: Insulin 300-unit meal bolus plus 1 unit per 15 g carbs. Considering 300 units is a whole vial, that could be deadly. Looking back at old records it was supposed to be: Insulin 300 units/3 mL. Meal bolus: 1 unit per 15 g carbs. ...

work and be happy they had a job. But now, those same MTs have turned into slueths sniffing out less than honest MTSO. Must be scary to know any day, you could get a call from an attorny, like what happened to Transcend management. Like what happened to MM several years ago. Must be scary to be an MTSO and know that you have to do business in an honest fashion, or else, these days, good chance you will be caught being dishonest. Must be scary to think at the very least y ...

Is every error, both real or fabricated, a major error now? Are there no levels of error any longer? Seems that EVERYTHING under the sun that can be made up is a major freakin' error. I would swear that I did not even make any of these and that these are fabricated. WTH? ...

Anyone else get a status update that included "Skip the scary movie marathon and work overtime"? Them constantly asking for OT is what's scary and full of horror! But I need the money, so I guess I'll batten down the hatches and "find an hour or two before or after my shift" to help them out! Heaven forbid the managers ever hop on and transcribe! But I know they don't because when you ask them a simple question about account specs, they have no clue! If ...

Has anyone ever had this error? The company I hired on with installed ES v 9 on my computer. For some reason error 372 popped up when he went to open ES. He tried a few things, but nothing worked. He is supposed to get back to me when he finds a solution. Has anyone else encountered this before? If so, what did you do to fix it? ...

I am so frustrated!!! I have a new job, and it looks like I am going to have to look for another one that does not use Editscript V9 because no matter what tech support does they cannot fix it. They have even spoken to Escription. I have 2 computers and neither one will work with ES 9. Unbelievable. One is less than a year old, and the other one is a few years old. I have googled this error and tried all the things suggested and nothing works. I ...

I read all the time the postings from MTs on SR errors. Had to share this one today!!! epinephrine - SR put "peanut friend" Really???? ...

Every once in awhile, I get a job that is 1 second long with the error stating that the audio has failed to load. I click okay and it's booted back in the pool only for it to be placed second in my queue. This can go on all day. Anybody else have this happen? ...

Dictated: Hysteroscopy with D&C. Transcribed by ILP: Hysteroscopy with drainage and clapping. ...

Just corrected on a report on 100% review that already went through 2 layers of ILP QA: "The patient was seen by the M as in Monkey service." I can't wait until they only have ILP QA checking the work. You get what you pay for. ...

I work for a company whose policy is that if you make a mistake typing in the job number or date of service or ANY demographic information, then no matter how long the report is and how long it took you to type it and how much you struggled to undertsand the ESL dictator, they pay you absolutely ZERO, ZILCH, NADA for it. Is that even LEGAL? ...

An error I see very often while doing QA, even though it has no impact on patient care, is a missing comma after the year on a full date, or missing comma after city and state. I'm not trying to nag, just trying to help because, when audited, the powers that be will ding you for this and laugh maniacally. Here are the rules in the style guide and BOS for any who want to argue. "Use a comma after the year when the sentence continues after a date: I saw the patient on May 17, 201 ...

I received a comprehension error due to leaving a blank that I could not understand. So, I guess that they would rather have us guess. No wonder I am starting to hate this job more and more each day. ...

Well, the head tech guy called today and remotely went on my computer, and he could not find a solution to this error coming up when opening Editscript v 9. It will not work, so I cannot work. I have a new job, but I can't work because I can't get ES 9 to work. Funny thing is, it does this on both my computers, and one is an XP and one is Vista. What are the odds both computers would give this same error? The tech guy said they have never seen this error b ...

As posted before, I had error 372 on opening Editscript version 9. Well, tech support couldn't fix it, escription couldn't fix it, so I fixed it. I did a system recovery where I basically just wiped everything off my computer and started all over. Vista was basically reinstalled and it was like it was when it was new. I reinstalled my antivirus and word. Then when tech support installed ES 9, it worked. ...

Keep getting "user profile failed to load." On the status page the light is green. Anyone else having any problems? ...

I am in the process of reviewing an IC contract that states, "Contractor will be charged and deducted for errors found by Company at a rate of $0.25 per error." Are "error charges" a standard in the industry for independent contractors. I am brand new to MT, but this is something that I have not heard anything about, at all. ...

Our QC sent out a memo that date of service errors were ALWAYS critical errors. I can understand Major, but I thought critical was if it impacted the patient's life. I did ask her and she more or less just said, that's the way it is. ...
