My account is verbatim, except under any section dealing with diagnoses, in which case, the acronyms/abbreviations need to be expanded. My question is, under discharge diagnoses, this dr. has dictated "ETOH intoxication." Does this need to be expanded to exactly what "ETOH" means or is "alcohol intoxication" or even "ETOH intoxication" doable?
Thanks for your help! ...
Hi,
I have a big dilemma and I need help. I have been working for the same company for 6 years now. At first I worked for a bunch of doctors and a hospital and then quit the other docs and the hospital because one of my doctors said that he did not like to share and that he wanted me to work only for him. I did not know that was illegal to do until recently being that MTs are contractors. So I have been working for this one doctor and all the nurses and interns in the office for about 5 ...
I wanted to know what would fit into this part of this psychology report:

If I reported a dictator that consistently abuses his priority button to my CCM, will anything be done about. Just getting annoyed with all these 20 or so 10-minute discharge summaries from my second-secondary of non-emergent issues that this one garbage mouth dictator is putting out, when I've got H&Ps going out of TAT on my main account (that are super easy lines by the way, which annoys me more). just venting. ...
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After all the stunts these guyz have pulled over the past who-knows-how-many-months...I just saw a job posting for them on a site I'm not sure if I can name here :/ and I don't wanna get in trouble for breaking any rules. Seriously...advertising for more help after you fired SEVERAL QAs and with how much work their sending over to India...you're gonna hire MORE MTs?!?!?!?!?!?! Guess maybe they're looking for some "fresh blood" to dupe ...
No one is going to do it for us. There is wage theft, minimum wage, changing of timecards, disrespect for our knowledge, ridiculous working conditions, bad management, and no communication.
MTs have been left completely out of the conversation, and they are the MT in MTSO. How bizarre is that?
I think everyone should just walk away from their keyboards. We won't know what the result of an action like that will be until we take it, and hold a positive intent on beha ...
Has any one had a problem with QA MME's putting in text or teminology that was not in the report, eventhough you extesively went over it and proofread the report numerous times?
I have had this happen to me recently, So I have decided to take photo evidence of the reports before uploading in case a situation like this happens again and show them to compare.
Is anyone out there brave enough to step up and tell me if this is a common thing for higher up MModal employees to do to get one "te ...
I say people (?) because I'm really wondering if they're human and if they possess a heart.
Due to overhiring and mismanagement once again, I am OOW and have been many times all week.
We are commanded to adhere to a schedule, but flex when there is no work and then make up the time, which then interferes with another MT's schedule.
Are we not supposed to have a life? You people at the top and in HR are reprehensible. I could say so much more, but I am better than that. ...
If you feel you are being abused and want to do something about it, you probably need to be documenting the problem.
Concerns that have been mentioned on this board include: Some have mentioned having no work available but being required to work outside of their scheduled hours in order to complete their required line count. Some have been a victim of an unfair pay system in which they have had their pay reduced because they have such difficult dictators/intermittent work that they are una ...
