Ok. Now the Dr. is dictating: "Left breast shows no masses, S/L nippling or nimphling and no axillary adenopathy." Is it some sort of slang for nipple discharge? Any help would be marvelous.
Thanx ...

On the skin exam for this newborn: "Mild jaundice on face. S/l erythemataxicom on face and chest." I'm thinking this is probably "erythematous something" but I have no idea what the "something" could be. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! ...
I am looking for North Carolina based MTSOs. I know about Fast Chart and Archivus. Just curious as to any more. Trying to make decision about whether to stay in this business or change and would like to work for a company based in my own state. I am so tired of being 3 hours or more behind where I work and having to wait for answers, help etc from the MTSOs that are across the county or out of the country! ...
I'm really discouraged with the company I currently work for....so much of the work is being sent to India...Are there any good companies left where you can work, make a decent living, and not sit around your whole shift waiting for work to come trickling in? If you know of any good companies that are currently hiring....please let me know!! ...
The pdf electronic version of BOS-2 was so handy and easy to use. Wonder what made them decide to do away with that & make it to where you have to open a browser, find the link, sign in, find the BOS page, etc., for the 3rd edition. It's so much more time-consuming, not to mention the search feature doesn't work nearly as well as the BOS-2 pdf version. For the first time ever, I can't wait for the 4th edition because surely nobody likes this & they will g ...
A former manager of mine from "brand X MTSO" (in reality, a very dear friend now) got thrown under the bus. She knows how "QBay" does. She is considering an MT or QA job for Focus Infomatics. Focus claims to not offshore, and has offered my friend 8 cpl. That sounds terribly lame wage wise for all that experience.
When I couldn't drink the MQ Kool-Aid anymore, I was making a whopping 9 cpl. Of course, try doing the math on that formula come payday.

We got notice that we cannot use a document that is word based with the platform we use. I hate to appear that I have no sense at all but I do not have a clue what is meant by document that is word based. Is that Facebook, Yahoo, Google? I need some assistance. Thanks so much! ...
There may be one staff member in Louisville, but it's Indian owned. Dig a little deeper. That's your first red flag.
Your second red flag is the knowledge that last summer, once the US labor passed QA for Mediscribes, they immediately switched to their own Indian labor immediately afterwards, admitting freely that US labor on the account had done nothing wrong, QA wise or productivity wise.
None of the 22 US laborers were given new ...

Hi,
I am thinking of expanding my skills as a medical coder, but before I spend a bunch of money learning this as well, I wanted to know if it is based on production or hourly? I would like to work from home. I am burned out with transcribing and just not making what I want to be making. I almost took coding instead of transcription 5 years ago.
Thank you so much! ...
Hi everyone! I hope someone can shed some light on who hires recent graduates for home-based MT work. I've been applying to every company I can find but most want in-house experience or 1 year+. Not having a car limits my in-house work. That's why I went into this field. I've been looking for 2 weeks and have gotten few replies (all "thanks but no thanks"). I've completed Medical Terminology course with a 94% and Medical Transcription cours ...

Any help out there? ...
