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 got a style error minor deduction for this, because it could also refer to "benign prostatic hyperplasia." I was actually aware of this terminology controversy in the medical community in terms of what the actual meaning is, but I've never once had "benign prostatic hyperplasia" dictated in over 18 years of MT, regardless (has anyone else?). However, I should somehow intuit that Nuance wants it done this way (though I've been expanding it for over 2 years now with never a corre ...

Does anyone know how to make red headings in DQS wo using control H, that's a royal pain? Tks! ...

While editing, have you ever come across a read heading that is not meant to be there and sometimes has nothing to do with what is dictated, and then, upon normalizing the heading with ctrl-shift-H, it shows exactly what was dictated? This happens all the time with me, but this one really stood out. The red heading was FAMILY AND SOCIAL. What was dictated was "dairy and wheat." Without typing what was dictated, I normalized the heading and, sure enough, "dairy and wheat" ...

What bugs me is that since switching to DQS 7.1, all the headings in the ROS and PE are in lower case now, and each time I edit, I have to change them back to caps per client preference. They used to be in all caps. I have them in the expander, but it's still time consuming to go through and change them each and every time. ...

There was a post a few days ago stating that we do not get paid for the red headings. Can you document that? ...

MEDICAL RECORD NUMBER IS where, how, why? makes no sense to me. All I know is all these changes are killing me. I would rather it make NO headings, easier to create them, then remove them and make it right. ...

Has anyone else noticed that expansions do not work within headings??? ...

Make sure your headings are spelled correctly before uploading as the spell checker ignores them completely, which makes me highly suspicious that they are not included in our line count whether we type them or insert them. You know, DQS was the only good thing MQ had going for it until this update. They had some good ideas, but implemented them poorly, not to mention should have done a beta with a handful of non-suck-up and non-family-member-to-the-CEO MTs first. I have a fe ...

All of my accounts are verbatim. I just got an e-mail from the CCM stating some accounts' heading lists were turned on. Does this mean I have to choose only one of the headings from the list, or could I still insert what the doctor really says? ...

Do we have to use this new heading feature or can we turn it o ff? Thanks. ...

NOTIFICATION OF DQS 6.1 ISSUE - ERRANT BROKEN HEADING AT END OF DOCUMENT Got this email on 03/16/2011 from MQ. All of the sudden we are have an issue with the headings? We have to turn off all markers (redundant, skip, etc.) I was under the impression that all the red markers/headings counted in our line counts. Do I have this right? Is this another ploy to undermine line counts/pay? Please correct me if I misunderstood. Thanks all ...

Good morning everyone, In DQS 6, I could "rpe" and have it return "</PHYSICAL EXAMINATION/>" in red in the report. Not happening with 7.1. I have tried every combo I can think of to bring an expansion into a job and have it format like it did previously but am having no luck. I have tried copying a heading from a standard into Instatext but it will not come back into the job formated correctly. Anyone found a work around for this? I'm finding the ctl+h very time c ...

Not sure if I did something or not, but all of the sudden my ASR headings are not like they have been. The blue lines are gone and the next heading is directly below the text of the previous. I think this was how it was when a new version came out, but I was able to "fix" it to the old way. Is any of this making sense? Also my Google, RxList and the rest of those sites you can access on the DQS page are off center. ...

I think every single one of us should put in a ticket in Remedy complaining about this "preferred heading" list. There is absolutely no reason for this! It just slows up down when trying to upload a job! Can somebody tell me what the purpose is for the spell check stopping on every single heading that is not in the "preferred list?" There is none! All these dictators want their own little headings in red, and we're not going to switch to one of the "suggestions ...

My EditScript keeps inserting headings (PHYSICAL EXAMINATION, CHIEF COMPLAINT, ETC) when they are not dictated. With my accounts, I am required to delete any heading that is not dictated, and most of the time the dictators don't dictate them, so I have to spend a lot of time deleting headings, sometimes 10 or more in a report. :( My question is, is there some way to "reprogram" EditScript so it doesn't spit out a heading if not dictated? Otherwise I do like EditScrip ...

Lines. Hmm, when I worked at a hospital, I used to do blocks of SOAP notes in one document and puts lines in between patients (for more characters) for as long as I could get away with it. You don't suppose Mm has figured out a new way to overcharge clients (but of course not pay us). On the other hand, maybe they just had a bunch of programmers with nothing better to do. ...

I really have a problem under the Physical Examination trying to figure out what goes where when the headings aren't dictated. For instance, in this dictation, she dictates lungs, describes her exam of them, then goes on to say, "Mass in the back and the left paraspinous area is measured..." Would this stay under the lungs or would I make a new heading...if so, if "Back" an acceptable heading? Next, she talks about the pelvis...would this go under a heading with a "Pelvis" labe ...

I do not like this..I like a FULL screen and I hate being distracted by stuff on the side. What happens if there are left-over headings...or if we use our own? Anybody? ...
