As I sit here and edit/retype at 4cpl speech recognition for about 99% of my payperiods, I realize that every time I delete words, sentences, phrases, etc. for quality, for my MME's preference (do not be redundant, delete words dictated like significant for etc)... EVERY TIME I delete words, I am taking pay away from myself.
These add up. So, if I were to sit and delete 99% of a document, I have spent my time reading through and listening with my technical knowledge to gibberish ...
Ever think about how this also applies to 20-minute dictations that are filled with "sorry correct that to..." and "UHs, UMS?" Also working "to a deficit" to all of our detriments. Don't continue to accept it.
In an earlier post it was mentioned that there will be more activities and ongoing activities during and past MT Week. ...

Is that the case with AP and lateral films? ...
An MRI of the lumbosacral spine, also done earlier this year, demonstrates severe neural canal stenosis at L3-4 and L4-5 with bilateral lateral recess and facement, worse in the right at L4-5 with proximal L5 nerve root compression. ...
I know I have heard this in the past and know I have typed it too, but I'm drawing a blank. I've been searching everywhere on the internet and in my books and can't find it, and it's coming up incorrectly spelled.
Is it Willitz examination? ...
This surgeon is dictating about an excision of this patient's "left frontal skull area. This was lipoma on pathology. She has ecchymosis in her bilateral lateral auricular area." Did he mean to use both "bilateral" and "lateral" or did he misspeak "bilateral" and correct it with "lateral?" I'm not sure if the two together makes sense.
Thanks! ...
There is no evidence of loose body. On the lateral view, s/l **Blue-mont-slots** line is intact with neutral patella. There are no significant degenerative changes of the patellofemoral compartment. There is no evidence of subluxation or tilt. ...
