The doctor is explaining the pt's ambulation due to lumbosacral spondylosis for which he is doing radiofrequency ablation for.
It s/l he is saying "list."
With ambulation she has definitely got a significant (list) to the left side. She can heel-and-toe walk without much difficulty, and her balance appears to be quite good.
Thanks! ...
I'm guessing either the huge group of hospitals (I think they're like the walmart of hospitals) dropped them because they were awful, or they're trying to keep costs low and are having ILPs do their own QA, which will be a disaster. Since I see the USA side of that hospital group still pop up once in awhile, I'm guessing its the latter.
Pretty much the ILP QA department may as well be nonexistent. I see just as many errors on work that goes through th ...
MedQuist was able to provide significant transcription cost reductions while providing a solution that fully integrates with Mercy's EHR technology. Article states this and came out today.

why at the end of every shift do I still bother to calculate my line totals - transcription & VR - when 9 out of 10 times I am only discouraged??? Its not my lack of skill, knowledge , speed or anything I have done that determines this loss. Why, oh why, do I hang in there. Maybe for the occasional good day? The high I get when I can fly through a report of an ESL doctor, because I know better what he is trying to say? Or maybe its the constant editing with ...
Okay, I may be dense, the rest of you may have figured this out long ago! Many times I see comments here about people who cannot get enough work. Well, at my company, if there is a low volume of work and you cannot meet your line count you are placed on part-time status and cannot regain full-time status until you have met your commitment for 90 days. Yes, you lose your benefits....your health insurance, paid holidays, dental/vision, etc. Well, heck, look at the money the ...
Does anyone here integrate their transcription into an EMR? If so, what EMR company is being used? Looking for a way to keep a company from going down the EMR tubes!
Help!

Hello, this may be an unusual question, but I have been transcribing for about 3 months now, after completing 12 months at Career Step. I've been noticing over the last week that my hands are looking almost like skeleton hands. It's like the fat is disappearing and the bones are becoming more prominent. Also, the veins in my hands are becoming very, very vascular. They are about the diameter of a drinking straw.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is this common with excessive typing? I ...
Just wanted to share something with you. I have used it since August and amso pleased. I am very impressed with the quality of the headset I purchased from http://www.startsto p.com/transcript ion_accessories. asp#30585 (this is the site for the headset)This headset is wonderful for folks who have a problem hearing andunderstanding the spoken word. They tested this headset in real doctors' offices with real MTs who had nothing to do withtheir company.I cannot tell you how impressed I ...
i am an at home transcriptionist and have been for 23 years. I am trying to do a home loan modification and I need a profit and loss statement. Does anyone have a sample report pertaining specifically to being an at-home independent contractor? My tax man says he doesn't know how to do one, although he does the Schedule C for me on my taxes. Any suggestions/samples? Thank you! ...
I have only been getting approximately 25 hours a week. Yeah, I'm broke. Luckily I have a husband who works or I would be in a mess. Anyway, they have emailed me and said I have to have minimum 30 hours to continue to have medical ins. Well, if the work isn't there, what am I supposed to do? So, I asked my team lead to please give me a backup acct. So she has sent out requests to other team leads and said she would let me know if one replie ...
Just wondering about this. For one company that I work for, I had a secondary account -- a hospital, that we were told (e-mailed) we would no longer be typing/editing. The voice recognition program was getting better all the time and probably was pretty good at this point. We were just told that we would no longer by doing work for them. So 2 possibilities: 1) The hospital was not happy with our editing?
2) The voice recognition program had gotten so g ...
Just recently discovered Softscript lost an amazing production manager. I have worked under a lot of production managers and by far this was one of the best; knowledgeable, helpful, understanding, easy to work with, but at the same time was straight forward and honest in their approach with the group. Such a shame. You will be missed greatly. Wish you the best. ...
Anyone out there have any hearing loss? I have developed significant hearing loss. My ENT has encouraged me to keep transcribing, with the use of a boosted headset and I am trying. Telephone use is very difficult and almost non-existent. Boosters do not help. Also diagnosed recently with RA and having difficulty with my fingers, but not letting it get me down. I am on treatment that is working well. Just wondered if anyone else is having any of these issues and how they are dealing with them. Th ...
Does anyone have any links to articles that explain the loss in productivity for physicians and their offices because they are wasting time with EHR/EMR's typing their own notes or spending way too much time editing their own voice recognition notes when they could be seeing more patients?
I have lost a few clients to VR systems and EHR/EMR systems because they think they will be more productive, when they actually lose money and time because of the loss in the number of patietns see ...
