Is this a new doctors "slang" that I haven't heard - before? Colleen

Posted: Feb 15, 2010

Is this some kind of doctorize for ligament laxity, or something else entirely?? Would welcome any help here.

Examination under moderate sedation showed a positive Lachman, questionable s/l "lilax" (not relax) posterior cruciate and lateral collateral and a third-degree MCL.

Could he be saying "questionable lax posterior cruciate.....?:) nm - Cyndiee

Hi everyone I feel like I just have to vent a little. Hope that's okay. I've been a transcriptionist for a long time (17 years) but I am beginning to believe that I must really stink !!

I currently work nights from home and I swear I have not heard dictators like the ones I have been getting, all ESL and I can barely tell what they are talki ...

Hi - This dictator keeps referring to the patient being seen by s/l rio (reo? reho?). I am thinking this has something to do with postop PT/OT, anesthesia, epidural.

This is an elderly dictator. CHIEF COMPLAINT: Hand cramps. I think I have a UTI. The rest of the report goes on to talk about abdominal problems and doesn't mention the hands. I already have "I think I have a UTI" in quotes, but is the hand cramps part some sort of slang for quotation marks, or should I leave it in there? Thanks. ...

..well, I'm really close to finishing. It seems as though, based off things said here, I've made a bad decision. Oh well, I'm almost done, so I mine as well finish and sit for the RMT exam. I actually am applying to school for respiratory therapy. Any newbie's have anything positive to say about their experiences getting started as an MT? I hate to have a negative attitude, that's really not how I am, but sometimes you have to be realistic. I'll still apply to MT jo ...

Basically, it's been working out fine until one day last week when I received an email from the transcription manager saying that was "short on my time" on one specific day. I was confused because while I agreed to work first shift on specific days, I wasn't aware that I was strictly held to a specific schedule and wondered how they were keeping track of my hours worked because I do not punch a time clock. I assume they are keeping track of the hours I'm logged onto th ...

I've been all over the place today, from California to New York and everywhere in between, and not a single report from ANY of my "primaries" ... not even one. There doesn't seem to be ANY rhyme or reason to the type or location of the reports I've gotten ... it's crazy. It's like a switch has been flipped since yesterday, and I also notice my Teamwork timecard has my manager's name changed to the new one. Guess this is what my work flow will look ...

I'm an IC but I don't work for any company, I have my own clients. One of my clients hasn't paid me since August, claiming a cash flow problem and they stated they "want to pay me asap". Well here I sit, tons of work to be transcribed from them but NO motivation because I'm behind on MY bills (IRS, etc) due to them not paying me. My husband says wait until the 15th of October when they for sure will have my September's work bill and then tell them pay or I quit and wi ...

heard a yes or no from my CCM. She has answered other emails that I had sent AFTER that so I KNOW she got the email. Can she actually deny my request to go PT? Can I only do this at a certain time of the year? Anyone who has dropped to PT, I'd love to hear from you about this. I think it's really rude that she is not getting back to me about it. Is she hoping I will change my mind if she ignores me? Can she really say, "no, either work FT or n ...
