Definitely not secondary diagnoses... - mm
Posted: Jun 30, 2011
I'm having what is probably a simple problem w/ this dication. She starts out with the principal diagnosis, lists them, and then goes on to what s/l hyograph other diagnosis. I can't tell what she is saying.
She's probably saying - no1joe
[ In Reply To ..]Paragraph (as in start a new heading). So it would be:
PRINCIPAL DIAGNOSIS: _________
OTHER DIAGNOSIS: _________
: )
You are so right! - mm
[ In Reply To ..]Thanks so much...she's a bit more foreign than I'm used to.

Secondary Diagnoses
May 04, 2010
I'm having a problem with this part of the diagnosis as she doesn't specify to go on to the next number, as she does with the rest of them, but I've never had someone that adds the procedures used to fix the diagnoses in this section. This is the sentence as she says it, "1. Coronary artery disease, status post 3-vessel CABG in ___ vertebrobasilar insufficiency." The she says "number next" and goes on to the next one. Because the previous word(s) are blanked out, and b ...

Mar 14, 2013
I know 2 other MTs who have noticed the same thing. We have not had a single post audit on our primary accounts but let us do 5 reports on our secondaries and we'll get audited on it. We presume they do that trying to "get you" to keep you from getting the bonus for QA. For example I worked on my secondary Monday - first time in 2 weeks, did 3 reports and 1 got post audited on 1. ...

Don't Doctors And PA-Cs Know No Abbreviations In Diagnoses?
Jan 13, 2015
Why the constant slang and abbreviations in diagnoses and impressions? Especially when it could mean more than one thing ( for example I and D) and it cannot be gleaned from the record. Are these clinicians lazy or what. I think there should be stricter guidelines for those dictating, rather than placing the call on the MT. I know I am preaching to the choir so to speak, but it is really getting on my nerves... ...
