OK I have literally kept my foot on the transcription pedal while I have researched doctor names, drugs, and instruments on Google. Also tap, tap, tapped a key when my husband called. Is my production higher? Nope. Is my stress level through the roof? Yep. Blood sugar higher? Yes. Sugar cravings? You better believe it. Hate this stupid job even more than before. ...
Is anyone else tired of all looking and searching for the "correct" specific formats for every hospital. Spend a LOT of time doing this.. I guess I am just getting tired of all of this. WOuld love to be able to sit and transcribe and not have to keep checking the "peculiarities" of every different type of report and/or dictator. All that and a cut in pay too......live is so good (sarcasm). ...
The Eye for Quality poll for today...you choose the person who has the best "eye for quality" and they get an ADDITIONAL $100 gift card. um no thank you they can all kiss my butt. Why not give the rest of us a shot at a gift card instead of someone else who has been recognized monetarily???????????? i'm not voting and neither should you. ...
The changes and the unknown that hit us on a daily basis are extremely hard to take and now so many people out of work with no recourse. But to have to start the day without our superb supervisor KF, there just isn't anything left. No one left that cares about the clients and no one that cares about the MTs. I know they want us all to quit so they don't have to pay UE, but screw them. ...
I wish someone would tweak the VR as lately I am taking more time to do corrections than I could have typed it. It prints out whole paragraphs of things the dictator is not saying and these are plain speaking dictators. No wonder I keep getting poorer. ...

Thanks :) ...
Does anyone know whether "phaco" as in "phaco blade" is capitalized or not? Is there a chance it would be one word: phacoblade? Thank you so much for your response in advance!!! ...
In this sentence, "The wound cultured staph aureus" should Staph be capitalized or not? Stedman's doesn't help. It has it both ways. Can't find in BOS. ...
For some reason, the first word after a period is not capitalized now. I could ask QA but would take too long to get an answer. Anyone have the answer? ...
Years back, the name of the service was to be capitalized if they said the patient was seen by Podiatry or the patient was seen by Neurology. But if the patient was seen by the neurology service, it was not capitalized. Why am I being counted off for not capitalizing Neurology Service? It just looks stupid with it capitalized. I feel like I'm dealing with people who don't really know what they are doing. Very frustrating. ...
When I Google this word -- the word with the copyright symbol hana _is NOT capitalized. I am wondering how you would put in a document in the middle of a sentence? hana or Hana table? ...
I cannot find crestal. It sounds exactly like that - crest-al
She reports that in addition to the paralumbar pain she now has pain anteriorly as well, which is in the anterior axillary line bilaterally between the transumbilical plain and the crestal plain.
Anyone ever heard of a crestal plain?
