but EPOCH is a chemo regimen for lymphoma.

Epic is the name of an EMR program - anonmt

As in, listed in Epic?

Epic EMR - see inside - Cathy

[ In Reply To ..]
If the doctor is dictating to see the list in Epic or something like that, Epic is electronic medical record software that some hospitals utilize.

EPOCH - MT

[ In Reply To ..]
My Saunders drug book says EPOCH (etoposide, prednisone, Oncovin, cyclophosphamide, Halotestin). It is a chemotherapy protocol.

Thank you! - Medication list help!

Thanks to all who replied! I also found the EPOCH combo but it did not seem to fit. The EMR Epic answer did.

Thanks so much to everyone for your time and expertise!

In the future... - see message

Short Cut For List Punctuation In A Drug List? (Fluency)
Dec 06, 2014

Is there is quick way to add commas between items in a list? Of course, using Ctl K in front a word will change the punctuation, but it will also change a capitalized drug to lower case, and you will still have to get to the beginning of the next drug which will require 2 Ctl arrows and backspace. Ctl arrow takes you to the beginning of the next word, but you will have to backspace to put in the comma. Adding punctuation to lists is so time consuming! ...

Epic/Editscript
Dec 04, 2011

The hospital I work for changed over the Editscript last year.  Changeover went relatively smoothly, and we still had plenty of work to keep all the transcriptionists busy (after we stopped outsourcing the overflow we used to have).  Recently, the hospital switched to Epic electronic medical record system, and within a week the transcription workload plumeted to probably 40% of our former workload --not enough to keep our transcription staff busy.  It seems the doctors/nurses/etc ...
