Do most services use a Times New Roman 12 font?  I was told by the service I might be signing on with that I could not use Courier New 12.  I use this font size due to my eyesight. 


Shortcut help
Subject: Shortcut help

such as, I end each letter from my doc with "Thank you for the referral of the patient." Sincerely, John R. Brown, MD JEB/trh. I know there must be a way to store this so that all I have to do is strike 1 key to end my letters, but I don't knave a clue how to do this. Anyone have any suggetstions? Thanks


Type up what you want to "quick-type" (including font, color, format--just the way you want it to look when you normally type it in), then highlight it all.  At the top of the Word toolbar, click on "Insert." In the drop-down menu is "AutoText" with an arrow. Go onto the arrow, and there should be another drop-down menu. Click on "New." Write a simple title for it (like "JEB" or "Brown"). From that point on, you should be able to type in the title and AutoText will automatically place this in your work. Let me know if this works for you (I do it all the time--saves my poor fingers!).

Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.

I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN.  Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading.  Hope that helps!
