"multiple diastemata" which is pleural of diastema and he is probably using the incorrect pronounciation of the pleural word. Put in multiple diastemata in google and see if that would work.
That may well be it...sm - Thanks!

I had already signed the report off. It's a new maxillary surgeon, and I'm not too familiar with dental terms. But thanks so much!
I was just wondering from anyone who has taken the CCS exam recently, is the whole exam multiple choice? I ask because I am taking the Andrews course and using the AHIMA-published workbooks and they are all multiple choice. I use a different skill set when doing these questions, work my way backward with deductive reasoning, reading the question and looking up each answer, eliminating the wrong ones. This seems faster to me and I want to work as fast as I can on the test. ...
I signed up for dental coverage for the first time this year. I haven't received anything. Does anyone know if we are supposed to receive a dental card? Thanks ...
We seem to be getting more and more emails charting our progress, charting our errors, charting how much time we are idle. You name it, these people are chart crazy. I think they like the multiple colors. I am worn out from it all. If they spent half the time actually building us up with positives instead of negatives all the time, maybe, just maybe it would help our production. ...
I'm training with Nuance. CC goes to a doc, there is a choice of 2 to choose from, same city, both GP's. I can't find anything in the pdf manual about how to pend this. I asked and was told by TM to find it in the manual. I can't. Anyone know? Thx for any help. ...
I have five accounts that I currently work on - three are considered my "primaries" and two are "secondaries". Does this seem like a lot or is it just me? I have to switch between three different platforms to perform the work and on a daily basis I work in at least four of the accounts. I'd love to find a position where I just had two, maybe even three accounts - does this even exist anymore? ...
I work for an MTSO and have been given 4 accounts. After my first one ran out of work they gave me another, and then when that one ran out they gave me another and so on and so forth.
My primary and secondary accounts I like, they are basically sister hospitals and are pretty similar. My fourth account is very large and always has work and is a totally different type of hospital, but I like the work and the packet the QA people sent me is very informative and easy to find what you need. However ...
A recent _____ and Beta-2 microglobulins were checked, and the results are pending.
Sounds like Pess-step (he's eating, so it is hard to hear)
Thanks!

The patient has relapsed multiple myeloma. The doc is saying the goal is to start her on s/l BRD with the hope of getting her to an excellent remission. TIA. ...
We are all wondering what is going on. There are 3-4 companies doing this account. Is one going to finally end up with it or is the account so huge that we are all going to do it...is the question. If you are on it, you probably know what I am talking about (Companies including Keystrokes, Medquist, Keys, Healthscribe, eMTS).
I hope this is not a ban-able question - just wondering if I am going to be out of a job - From where I am, the super says we are getting it - but I see ...
Would anyone be willing to weigh in on how many MT jobs they currently have? The couple of MTs I know said they all work for a couple of different MT companies so they have plenty of work, but I also heard someone say they work for 3 at once. I'm not sure I could handle 3 at a time but it sounds like it's smart to have 2 so you always have a backup. Thanks to any responders ...
They darn sure are all over the map as well. This BOSS speaks to the problem we are all complaining about, multiple accounts cause multiple problems. If you actually sat down and DID your job, you could better track and send out work. There are ways, it takes time, and it takes extreme patience, and most of all it takes the loss of you TAT bonus for maybe a couple of months until you get it right. If you truly care, quality would come first.
And QA, please stop the BS corrections, I ...
Hi all, wondering if anyone transcribing from home has more than 1 account & therefore more than 1 computer? I have 1 monitor, keyboard/mouse & foot pedal that I would like to use for both computers & am wondering if there is a magic "switch box" or other device I could use so I don't have to buy additional equipment? Anyone have any other ideas on how to set this up? ...
The word sounds like theficants. The sentence is - We discussed the importance of a Port-A-Cath if she were to proceed with chemotherapy since the regimen contains multiple ____.
S/l theficant, thuficant, deficants. Found toxicants, but doesn't sound like that.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Regarding tooth extraction, I cannot understand if the dictator is saying lidocaine and 1:1000 epi or 1:100,000 epi. I don't know much about dental surgery. Would appreciate help from someone who knows which it is.
Thank you. ...
I recently quit my hospital MT job and started working for a mid sized MTSO. This was a big change for me, different platforms, different rules, different type of accounts. I have 4 accounts with this job, all with their own little rules and formats and things. On top of that I recently was hired and quit with another large MTSO for weekend work (didn't like the QA or managers; I was constantly being forgotten). Anyway, I quit them after 2 weeks and was just hired as an IC for small MTSO an ...

I posted about different career choices and a lot of people responded about nursing and radiology tech, but no one responded regarding dental assisting as an option. I used to make 20-25 an hour doing MT. Now I am down to 16 an hour and sitting around waiting for work, etc. I am just looking for a comfortable job that pays about the same as I was making as an MT. I have researched dental assisting and found that it is a good career. Dentists are utilizing DA's ...
