You are right - Gave her Z-Pak to cover for atypicals. Atypicals are like a class of bacteria.
Example: Azithromycin is an antibiotic with activity against a range of Gram-positive, Gram-negative, atypicals and anaerobes.
Hope this helps!

Type Of Bronchitis? Aug 17, 2010This doctor has a deep southern accent and speaks very quickly, so I'm having trouble deciphering whether he's running words together or if his accent is just totally changing the sound of the word. The first place I'm having trouble is under his assessment, it sounds like he is saying "iosnitic ronchitis/URI." A few lines later he says "Gave him a Z-Pak to cover any bacterial component and a (s/l steroid dopashit) 6-day pack for the wheezing and inflammation." I ...

Would That TAA Thing Cover Something Like This? Mar 27, 2010The university down the street will be offering an undergraduate degree in Arabic. It is one of only 3 offer in this country.

What Type Of Information Do You Put In Your Cover Letters? (sm) Feb 11, 2011I generally introduce myself with my name, state how long I have been a MT and just a very short overview of my experience, as well as position I am seeking, IC, for instance. My cover letter is only 5 lines. Is this the norm for everyone else? When I first typed my cover letter I did some research and it stated to make the letter as short as possible and to highlight your "strong" points.
Just curious ... thanks for any opinions, advice, etc. ...
To Send A Cover Letter, That Is The Question Mar 06, 2012If a company says send a resume, do you automatically send a cover letter too, or skip it?

Exactly Why I Gave No Notice Apr 25, 2010I read the post below from the MDI/Transcend MT who is struggling with BeyondTXT.

Gave Notice To The Q Dec 14, 2010Hi all. I've been doing medical transcription for over 20 years, and have been with the Q for almost 12 years (the first year in the office and at home, and then they sent us all home). Been through all kinds of changes, from working in the local office and at home, to working at home, to being moved to the responsibility of another office, to that office closing down, then to working for a "virtual office" and finally a "service area." I lost count of how many superv ...

Just accepted another job for better pay and better hours.. ...

Encore Gave Me Bad Paychecks Aug 07, 2013I thought I found a good company to work for until I got a two returned checks from them in the mail. The first time I thought mistakes can be made but AGAIN my check was returned. That really upsets me because I work hard for this company and they give me a bad check. There is no excuse for doing this to an employee. I have not been contacted about this check and I just quit because enough is enough. This is very dishonest and unprofessional to say the least.
