What is the limit? I have a relatively new doctor to staff that sniffles 30 to 50 times in on assessment (psych). Snuffles them right up and gives a big swallow too! Coughs of course, and talks when he yawns. This is 50% of my work EVERY DAY. I've already refused to transcribe what he yawns and in trouble for that. I've now told the sup the if he snuffs 5 times I'll stop and hand it back to her. So many other things wrong with this doctors dictation. Too many to mention. But th ...

I've searched and not found what I'm looking for on the company board about Accentus. Before I test, I just wanted to know a couple of things. I would be on the acute care side. 1.

Is the pay scale they gave true or just bait and switch? 4. I have no problem with ...

And it's basically about more minor medical problems albeit could be chronic rather than "acute." ...

What frustrates me is that I was told by my instructors that I should be able to find su ...
