Cardiology... S/L "Orson" myocardial perfusion study

Oh wow... the board looks different. Anyways, I have a term that I have never heard of regarding a woman giving birth and it is talking about the baby's heart.

In a DVT study, "Findings are most suggestive of chronic or past/passed?? clot" Thanks!! ...

I think if a study were done, findings would show that the tediousness and repetitiveness and intricacy of the editing required for this particular ASR will slowly but surely drive you insane. I am so nervous, I chew gum like a wild woman (and now need my second crown which I cannot afford), have developed tics and skin picking, and eat voraciously --- due to editing. Flame away, but I have typed for 25+ years and never had a problem (actually enjoyed my job); however, after 5 or so ...

I'd like to begin studying medical coding on my own to see if it it's a match iin terms of learning and liking the field. I have 30+ years of transcription experience and usually learn fairly quickly. What books/workbooks do you suggest as a start to see if this feels like it will work for me? And for people who have done this on your own, what did you include in a program of study for yourself? Are there some areas that you feel an in-house course is needed? Replies greatly app ...

I am looking forward to enrolling in a medical coding class through Andrews School this fall. I was curious as to how many hours a night or week a student puts in studying.

I am getting ready to enroll this week with Andrews for medical coding, and am really looking forward to this new challenge and learning opportunity!! After 30 years as a state employee, I'm actually switching careers. With that being said, I was just interested to find out "where" people like to study in their homes when studying 4-5 hours a night and working assignments. Do you sit at a desk with the computer in front of you, or do you use the dining room table, a comfortable ...

I am transcribing a report for the Einstein trials for a drug. Everywhere I look, it has EINSTEIN (all caps). I cannot find anywhere this is an acronym. Should it be transcribed in all caps? ...

Usual story -- I loved MT, but I'm about to be laid off and know another MT job would probably pay minimum wage (if that!). I'm lucky, in that I'll get enough unemployment to live on and will probably still have enough savings to pay tuition. However, I have no preexisting college degree, and both unemployment and tuition money will only stretch to about 5 quarters. I've already passed the CPC exam once, can brush up and pass it again. My local co ...

Im looking for additional ways to study for my classes while Im going through the coding course. Im interested in knowing what any of you have used in addition to what the school gives for study aids to help you obtain and keep the knowledge learned. I havent been to school in quite a while and I havent had to retain so much new information or take a test in all that time!!!! Ive heard and read comments about coloring books, laminated guides, crosswords etc. So what did you use and where ca ...

Hello, I am a fresh graduate from MTEC . I am currently preparing for AHDI's RMT exam. I bought the study bundle which consists of the RMT exam guide and an audio CD. Al in all, I have learned a great deal from the study guide... but... yes, there's always a BUT... While reviewing the entire RMT exam guide, I noticed some blatant mistakes as well as unclear questions. One example is a mixup between "affect" vs. "effect". The RMT study guide's answer key states that "effect" is a ...

I would like to buy a copy of this book if anyone could sell me one for a good price? I can pay through your paypal account. I have seen some on Amazon but they are expensive and I am hoping to find a better deal. I don't care what kind of condition it is in, written in, whatever.

I have 15 years experience as a medical transcriptionist, have an AA degree, took anatomy and physiology, medical terminology, etc., and have taken one non-credit ICD-9 class, and one non-credit medical billing class, both at a local community college. My question is, if I purchase AAPC's study guide and do practice tests (yes, I know it will be very hard and take a LOT of studying), would I be allowed to test without having taken a specific medical coding program? In other words, is ...

I graduated in 2013 and am just now getting around to having the money to take the tests. I really want to take the CCS first. So, I wondered what are some good books or work books I should get to brush up and practice with? Thank you :) ...
