A Best Possible Medication History (BPMH) is a history created using 1) a systematic process of interviewing the patient/family; and 2) a review of at least one other reliable source of information to obtain and verify all of a patient's medication use (prescribed and non-prescribed). Complete documentation includes drug name, dosage, route and frequency. The BPMH is more comprehensive than a routine primary medication history which is often a quick preliminary medication history which may not include multiple sources of information.

VR Standards Dec 23, 2009This is just my observation.
I am presently working on VR and have been for about 1-1/2 months. On my straight typing accounts, we followed the Book of Style and typed verbatim. VR is a whole different world. Where as we had to spell out abbreviations in the impression, plan, preoperative diagnoses, etc., with straight typing, on VR we are told to not expand abbreviations. We are also told that unless the statement makes no sense whatsoever to send it to QA, b ...

More About Standards Jul 25, 2012Thanks for all your comments about inserting standards but I am not concerned about mistakes in them at audits. I am at the point where I don't care if I am fired. The point I wanted to make is that the quality of the standard from the hospital was horrendous yet obviously acceptable because it comes from them yet we are expected to be 99% accurate under the worst possible circumstances. If this weren't so pitiful and causing so many MTs so much distress, it would be ...

SR Pay Methods/standards Nov 05, 2009My hospital is transitioning into SR using APEX. We're being told that they want to base our expect standards on VBC (visual black characters), saying this is "the industry standard". Are the rest of you on SR/VR paid by VBC, lines, or minutes? What were the justifications given? We've been paid for the last 10 years by minutes so aren't thinking this is a good change. Any feedback would be helpful. We are a union shop so would love to hear from other ...
Standards/templates Dec 16, 2010I've been with MQ for about 2 months now. I've noticed that many, many of the dictators use what we used to call "standards" or templates. We just inserted the canned text and made changes where indicated.

Are We Paid For Standards? Jul 05, 2012Can anyone tell me if we are paid for standards brought into reports or only what we add to it? I did a very long OP note yesterday that had a large standard and quite a bit of dictation along with it and am surprised to see I only received 9.38 lines for it. Something doesn't seem right, I know I type more than 9.38 lines even without the standard!

Inserting Standards Jul 23, 2012Our facilities have many docs who say "insert my standard." Yesterday I got a new one which was beyond belief. The format was wrong; the PE was double spaced instead of single. Some of the headings were capitalized and some were not. There were spelling errors. No Murmurs, Rubs or Gallops appeared like so, etc., etc. Someone somewhere had to produce this PE and this is what the hospital is using as their standard. Next time I get a piece of crap like thi ...

Doctors Using Standards Oct 31, 2012Anyone else get really annoyed when a doctor says "use my standard" and then proceeds to make half a dozen changes to it? What they would like us to do is remove part of the dictation, go down to the bottom, get the appropriate text, copy, delete, move it back to the correct place in the report and then, of course, edit it. Doing this multiple times is not only excessively time consuming but makes it very easy to accidentally delete text. Just curious if you are all doing this. ...
Normals/standards Apr 22, 2014Okay, if you want me to be 99.7% then at least have the information in the normals/standards correct. Misspelled words, punctuation errors. Really?
