MRI LAB STUDY? - Confused
[ In Reply To ..]
An MRI is not a lab study. But the answer to your question is FLAIR.
'Laboratory Studies' - often used as a general term/heading - covering any kind of testing

Including imaging studies.
It is perfectly acceptable to include x-rays, EKGs, Dopplers, etc. as part of a "LAB" section.

Work Flow Sent Up The Red Flare. May 10, 2014Begging for people to jump on, if okay with their TSM. Ha! Ha! Don't they know, the TSM (at least the last several I have had) will not pick up the phone 10 seconds after their shift, and their shift does not include weekends (apparently from my experience).
Maybe they let go a few too many with their 99.7% program.

New OOW/No Studies Requirements May 23, 2014Anyone else think that the new OOW/No Studies requirements make no sense?
I had seen someone post them on here last week (but I'm sure they were taken down for posting "company information" or whatnot), and got them from my own manager shortly thereafter.
The new requirements make no sense to me and sounds like a lot of hoops to jump through just to say "Hey! I'm out of work!"

Please Include Sentence The Word Was Used In (sm) Jun 10, 2013I see so many requests for help with words without providing any info but what the word sounded like. For most of these it isn't possible to help without knowing the sentence used (changing/omitting anything that would be a HIPAA violation, of course).

I have NOT sent this many reports to QA as blanks, but have sent a lot of stuff due to discrepancies, no demographics match, no dictation, etc. Are they seriously counting stuff that we have NO control over against us for purposes of denying bonuses?
