The patient is planned for surgery. The physician will come and "preop" him the day prior to surgery. How would you expand that? Thanks for any suggestions. ...
I have a dictator will dictate the Assessment/Plan with a number for the problem and a letter for the plan (1. Gout. A. Labs in the morning. B. Medication, 2. Etc. A. B., 3. A.) I have always just ignored the letters she gives me and not put them, but I was wondering today if I am suppose to. It is not a verbatim account and I never got in trouble for not putting them. I tried looking this up in AAMT BOS but maybe I am not looking right ...
My understanding is that the earnings of Nuance employees in the transcription division were negatively impacted by the initiation of the patient safety compensation plan.
If the original incarnation of the patient safety compensation plan caused an increase in earnings for your specific team, it was quickly amended to not only negate that change, but to also result in a decrease in earnings by 30-70%. Is that correct across the board? Is there anyone who did not receive ...
I have never hated a company as much as I do Nuance! They should have called it the "Screw the employee compensation plan" because that is just what it is. I feel like I work in a third world country and get paid 1 or 2 cents a line - that's probably next! Last paycheck even though I had 99 percent QA and 2 percent QC, I figured it out I made about $9.00 per hour. I'm sick of this and can pretty much go anywhere for this kind of money. Can you say CORPORAT ...
This means 65% will see decrease and/or paid minimum wage. They are touting this as the great new comp (local Burger King is advertising job for $10/hour). Anyone find out if the QC percentage is just for blanks or include all sent to QA including Audio issues, etc, and will EQA be included. Also, trying to figure out our pay from week to week is going to be a pain. I am going to see how this new comp plan works out, but since the conference call, I'm not feeling pos ...
My question is if you can take the test in stages or if you have to sign in and take the complete test all at once. The website doesn't say and yes, I have e-mailed them to ask, but in the meantime, I am curious if anyone knows. I am just worried about being interrupted and having to walk away and losing time or if I can just sign out and come back in to "hold" my time. They give you 3.5 hours to complete it.

EMS responding to a patient who just had ablation for SVT last week and is complaining of weakness and dizziness. Cannot find with much searching. Thanks for your help! ...
I am beyond frustrated. Is there anyone out there that has taken the assessment testing that is supposed to be completed by 02/14? There is 1 test that I have taken at least 50 times and cannot pass it. It's the one with the Asian woman who has shoulder pain. I have put in every combination there is, and it still says "incorrect." My HDSM says I have to pass it for the testing to be considered "complete." Apparently there is ...
I was wondering...we are told to expand abbreviations in assessment and impression paragraphs, but what if they say the abbreviation 4 times within that paragraph? This instance is PSA. Thanks... ...
Hello, Smart People-
Has anyone ever been asked to take a personality assessment when you're in the running for a job position? I applied for a patient sitter position at a local hospital and they said I was in the running and would I please take an assessment. It was a personality assessment (I could just tell), but I don't think it was the MMPI--the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Index. There weren't enough questions for that one.
FYI: The job description for which I'm ...
Just wondering has anyone been let go from Nuance for not making their 99.5% quality assessment? I can't seem to hit the 99.5% but I am always being asked to work extra, so I don't know how serious not hitting the 99.5% is? Anyone have anything to share on this subject? ...
Is this supposed to be left as MRSA in the assessment?? The client profile says nothing about it? I thought we had no abbeviations in the assessment unless the client profile stated that. ?? ...
What ever happened to our weekly assessment/review of our ASR production? I received 1 evaluation back in November around Thanksgiving and have not received another one. Am I wrong in thinking we were supposed to get one weekly. Has anyone gotten any more than their original one? Maybe I was so good, they just said, she doesnt need it, LOL My guess, they realized how much it was going to cost them to pay someone to do this and nixed it already. ...
I'm having huge problems with this pulmonary dictation. "Chest CT 2010, no interstitial fibrosis. Mild linear (s/l clinical) scarring in the lower lobes, right middle lobe, and lingual. PFTs-moderate restrictive lung disease. (s/l Mild decrease and diffuse in capacity.) Repeat PFTs - no significant change - (s/l duke) pulmonary - diffusion problem. (s/l also 2 homo 2.) Desats."
On the 'also 2 homo 2', she does seem like she is stumbling over her word ...
"She continues to require O2. She did see a pulmonologist who agreed with the management of pulmonary s/l processees. She feels that her left arm is actually less stiff now that she has had the EMG."
I was wondering if the word could be either processes or prostheses. This is a rheumatologist, so she doesn't cover much on the subject of the patient's pulmonary issues. ...
