I am typing merrily along, enjoying my psych account, and when I get to the plan, the dictator states for the last entry, "I informed the patient that this practice is closing and will provide her with a list of referrals." The next four dictations had the same final entry.
Egad. Thanks for letting us, the mere typists, know.

Dictator states infant born at 33-6/7 weeks, corrected gestational age now 37-7/7 weeks.
Am I missing something? Wouldn't that be 38-0/7 weeks?
Or maybe they have to have lived entirely through the last day to be rolled over to 38-0/7 weeks?
Just not sure if I should flag this or there is some way of counting the actual last day of the week so that it is 7/7 (like the 7th day of the week), until the next day?

To all you wonderful MTs working and slaving your lives away, Happy MT Week. I appreciate you. I appreciate your kindness when I have a rant or a rave, when I'm at my wits end with the constant changing around of clients, client profiles and the never ending dings being thrown at me. I appreciate knowing that I am not alone in this struggle.
It is because of all of you, and only you MTs on this board that I manage to stay in this game. We are treated as less than second class citiz ...
Does anyone know when pay will be distributed this week? A big deal seemed to be made about getting payroll in quickly, so Im wondering if pay will be released before Thursday or if its just going to be Friday as usual. ...
Good grief. I did not change the way I edit. It so depends on how many commas they think you should have. Yes, I made an unusual (for me) mistake last week, but the rest of passing an audit is dumb luck of whether you get a realistic auditor or Ms English wannabe.
Everybody must be under pressure because of the cesspool as I see a lot of mistakes when I look up past reports to help with these mush mouths and accents. The time czar wants schedule changes, but I see no problems with turna ...

Baby has respiratory distress syndrome and was given what sounds like "QSR" or "que-ess-arr." Don't know if this is an acronym or a drug or what. Any help very much appreciated. ...
I'm on a brand new account just started this week. An infant has RSV bronchiolitis but she is giving Dx of "FEN"... Is there anything that sounds like this that may fit?? ...
I've never heard of National MT Week. Been doing MT for 10 years for the same MTSO. Never came on to MT Stars until about the last six months. Obviously, I have never gotten anything for MT Week, so at least some of you are lucky that you do get a little something, whatever it might be. My MT job just keeps getting better and better (NOT) with pay decreases and work lost to VR. ...
I am kind of lost in the pay dates for the next pay day on Friday. Could someone tell me what days we are getting paid for? I though it was for 2 weeks starting on the 1st and ending on a Sat. Is that the way they do it now? Thanks guys! ...
Who is the company that pays every week? It was just on the job's seekers board, but now I cannot find it. Any info would be helpful. I would love to get paid every week.
Thanks ...
I'm trying to finish out my notice and will have to force myself to turn on that stupid computer in the a.m. May not be finishing out because I am not going to be strapped down waiting for piddly crap to come my way every 45 minutes.
I just keep wondering what the patients would say if they knew their records were going to India just to save a few bucks. I'd love for some news media to pick it up and ask that very question. ...
