Ortho. Negative *schwa-stick* sign?

OK..... It's an orthopedic chart note. Patient has a chief complaint of hip pain. Dictated: He has a negative [s/l fair, fairs, varus?] sign, a negative fabere sign. It doesn't sound like fadir; I'm not hearing that "d." I already had to leave two medication blanks and hate to leave another one for an orthopedic sign that I feel like I should know! Thank you in advance for your help and ideas! ...

On an orthopedics note: He has a positive (s/l meister or myster?) sign when the patient is supine with the shoulder adducted. I've checked the Internet, my Stedman's word book, an ortho website that is usually helpful... nothing at all so far! /: Any ideas, please throw them at me! ...

Every time MQ sends out a survey they use it to justify a pay cut or cesspool or other "great" ideas. They twist the results of the survey to fit their agenda and then say- see the MTs agree that ASR is better or they are sick of running out of work. JMHO but I am not filling it out so they can use my answers to make my job worse than it already is. ...

Sorry this is kind of long, but I am looking for advice on whether I should look for a new job or hang on to the one I have. I am a newbie and have only been working for about 6 months. I was hired as a "statutory employee" at 0.0625/line with spaces. Since they pay some of my taxes, I'm not sure what my actual line rate would be. I work M-F. No nights or weekends required. I have no minimum line requirement, rarely run out of work. I c ...

I'm just curious how well other ICs stick to their schedules, do you ask for time off or just let management know you won't be there, do you work extra when management asks??? Sometimes I feel like I behave as if I am an employee, but without any of the benefits. I'd like to know what the norm is out there. Thanks! ...

Used in orthopedics, amber stick?? ...

When on conference call about new compensation program, specifically asked if QA was going to get pickier and was told oh definitely no, they will not. Well, I have found that not to be true. One correction was a period..another a period, another a left out word (where the doctor changed their mind constantly they didnt even know what they wanted to say, so I felt it was a judgment call) it wasnt even a medical word or a word that changed the meaning, even if it is .25 points off tha ...

For those of you who are currently coders, do you intend to stick around for ICD10? Are any of you planning on getting out of the field? Do you know what your employer has in mind as far as training staff for the ICD10? Just curious. I just talked to an HIM director who said she is worried as more than half of her staff has indicated they intend to leave! Should make for a lot of jobs for new coders. ...

Since I can't get the same answer out of my QA, my CCM and others, I guess I'll poll the audience. We DO NOT put the zeros on medications, like 4.0 mg should be typed 4 mg, right? Do we put the zeros on...welll...pretty much anything else, like creatinine 2.0, temperature 98.0? And no, I'm not new. I've been told many different things over the past 10 years that now I'm just messed up, confused and too tired to think straight. ...

I give up. I've submitted so many resumes and applications that my head is spinning. I can't help it that my experience is more than two years ago. The doctor died and the practice split up! I live in a small town where outsourcing is unheard of and the MTs work at a place until they die. I passed my typing test and editing test with All-Type, had my interview, discussed contract terms, and the woman said she would send the contract out. But she ...

Ever heard of a disk on a stick for a stapedotomy? ...

I'm on my 29th report for the day and I have not had one decent dictator yet. It's been solid insanity. The whole day has been filled with: 1. ESLs. They are saying the right words, but they're not pronouncing them anywhere close to correct. 2. What the heck? Everyone is yawning and talking. Please stop talking, go ahead and yawn (if you can't find the pause feature!) and then continue with your hard to unde ...
