pend - TeresaC

Posted: Jul 10, 2011

Never heard this word used before. Really want to change it to pending, but that is not what was dictated. Looked it up and it can be used as a verb.

pend [pÉ�nd]

vb (intr)

1. to await judgment or settlement

2. Dialect to hang; depend

used like "lab results pend"

Is this account verbatim? - X

I used to do a doctor who would say something like:

MRI ordered. Further treatment pends.

Thanks so much. I so want to change it to pending, but supposed to be verbatim, so leaving as is.

Did anyone else get the speech again about pend notes being too long? I can understand why they want us to be "professional" about it but if there is an ODD problem (and there always is!), how am I supposed to tell them? Today, it said referring physician was Alan so-and-so, so, there was no ALAN So and so in the list so, I had to leave a blank BUT, the HPI mentions Albert So and So. Um.... okay, but still no Albert so and so.... Then, back to Alan, so and so, then at the end, copy to Albert ...

I'm in editscrip and suddenly realized that I forgot to pend a document with multiple blanks. I was so frustrated by the end of the document, I am afraid I just sent it through. I have emailed my TSM, but in the meantime, it would be great if I could figure out how to correct my mistake myself. EEKS!! Bad day!!!! ...

I just started a new account using editscript 10 and when I go to place a pend note I have to give a reason. I can get the screen to come up to do this, but I can't figure out how to close the screen once I completed the pend note. I know this is probably a silly question, but I really need to know. I doubt I can keep uploading jobs with the pend grid open (assuming that is how they look on the other end to QA). Before anyone suggests this, yes I have asked my t ...

if this will count against the 10%? If so, NOT FAIR AT ALL. They need to not be so cut and dry about that QC or there are going to be a lot of pissed MTs. Is that what they want? ...

later and count against our QA%? God I hope not. There is this one RIDICULOUSLY horrible dictator--I don't even know how the VR manages to get ANYTHING he says correct, and I can't even tell if it's correct--the VR looks reasonable but I just cannot hear him...Chinese, speaks a mile a minute, misprounces everything, UGH! I pull out my hair every time on him, and there is no way I would EVER get over 99% on this guy. There are always more than the allotted blanks ...
