Subject: It's probably facility specific
It's possible this is the name of a facility or something that is specific to the account you're typing. You might see if the hospital has a web page and go there and look under services/programs, and see if there is a TLC listed there.
It really could be anything. My first thought was transitional long-term care, but given that they're on pressors, that's usually not the kind of drug they send you to a SNF with.

Subject: Sounds like he was caught not being specific enough.
You should have been given account specific pages that explain what is expected. Nobody really knows what verbatim means until account specifics are spelled out. He needs to take a chill pill and put his expectations in writing, get approval from his supervisor, then run those specifics by the contact for the account. Otherwise all the MTs will change what they are doing and somebody at the hospital will object and then you'll have to change the way you do things AGAIN! JMO.
