Is foot drop one word or two?
foot drop is two words - sweetgirlsmom

Stedman's dictionary has two words. I have always typed it with two words and have never been corrected.
On-line Stedman has one word - Possibly either is correct; client preference

How old is your Stedman’s Dictionary? It may have changed or either way could be correct.
My on-line Stedman redirects to one word – footdrop
drop foot
See: footdrop
Search Stedman's Medical Dictionary
one of those things, perhaps you should ask your QA - if there is a preference. NM

End Point Versus Endpoint And Hand Grip Versus Handgrip Mar 13, 2012Two words that come up often for questioning. These are strictly used in an orthopedic setting. Stedman's and Dorland's list end point and hand grip HOWEVER the office transcription manager, girl is asking for me to correct this to endpoint and handgrip. She is only basing this on what an old medical transcription company she used to work for had her typing. I would rather base it on the medical reference. The doctors are not even aware this has come up. She is ...

VR Pay....is It Customary To Drop The Cpl AND....sm Apr 18, 2011decrease the weight of a line when paying VR. For example, if you edit 2000 lines in a day, is it customary for the company to ask you to multiply that by 0.70 for a total of 1400 lines because they are VR and not straight transcription as well as pay you half your transcription line rate? Does everyone do this? I am finding VR to be much more intense and demanding than straight transcription and this seems like a double whammy to me! ...

Can You Drop To PT (30 Hours) From FT At Any Time? Sep 02, 2010Or only certain time of the year? With all the NJA the stress of trying to stay FT and get my 40 hours in killing me. It's getting next to impossible to get 40 hours anyway, so I figure I'd go to PT of 30 hours and stop stressing. My CCM says I'll most likely lose my health benefits anyway if I continue not getting my 40 hours in.

Any Other MMEs Have A Significant Drop In ILP Work? Apr 25, 2012I'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 ...
Why I Plan To Drop My AHDI Membership Aug 15, 2012This week has been the turning point for me. As I was thinking about all of the presenters and debaters at ACE this year, they had one thing in common. They were all selling or promoting something. Then there were the MTSOs, who are the problem rather than the solution, but put in the position of lecturing to us.
I can delete the e-mail promotions, but when you pay to go to a conference, you don't expect it to be full of sales promotions.
Each presenter had an agenda, but it wasn ...

Medquist People - If You're Leaving, Drop The Docs You Type For Sm Mar 02, 2010an email, a letter, anything, let them know what MQ is doing with THEIR patient's reports. I guarantee you, they will be furious that they are now basically forcing you to guess what you don't know...I think they'll take it up with their administration and MQ will lose a lot of customers. But if you don't do it, they'll never know. Do you really think MQ would tell them that's what they're doing? ...
Ok, I Have Not Read Completely Through This Stuff Happening But I Have A Question About The Drop In Mar 04, 2010I have not seen how long our pay would be dropped the 3 cents. Am I missing something?

I spoke up and am having a conference call with the "team" tomorrow and I really would like to know how long our pay would be deducted. Peronally I can't afford to have my pay deducted and if you can (mq mts), then you are lucky. I have not had a pay raise in 9 years and all of this is goin ...
