(copied from another person's post) Common mistake that I see very often and of course it is up to your employer's preference but the way it SHOULD be is #2. M.D. is not part of his name, it is a title, so it should come after. This also goes for Jr., Sr., etc. Last name, first name, middle name/initial, then any title. Logically, when you are looking for a patient's chart, for example, you are looking for Doe, then John. Unless you know he is an M.D., you wouldn't know to look under for that. I hope this helps.

What is the correct style?

My BOS is at home and I'm at work.  If the doctor says 15.6 thousand and then says increased to 18 thousand which way is correct?


15.6 and 18,000?


15.6 thousand and 18,000?


or 15,600 and 18,000?


 


 


Please tell me where you found this in the style guide. sm
I don't find anything like that in the BOS 2.  Thank you.
They are all correct style and grammar rules. More concerning are the gross HIPPA violations sm
that you admit to. No MT should EVER go into another medical record to "check" on things.

The emails are not petty; the service obviously wants good quality and it is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS WHAT OTHERS DO. Hold yourself to the highest standard and you will never have an issue.
need help on style board, please, anyone....

If you found it, why not give him the correct one?
Yes, you want him to dictate better....he won't, NONE of them do. But, as long as you've taken the time to find the right info, then why would you not do it correctly yourself. That really shows what a GREAT MT you are. Either way, he won't realize he's an idiot and he probably won't change anyway.
you and dano sure have plenty of time to compose essays on an mt board. same writing style. and th
the hahaha clone. hey, good luck on your goal to be an MD. Shouldn't you be studying or working to earn money for your MD schooling? bwwaaaaahaaaaaaaa!
I found it. FlaMT link was not correct.

The last link was to the main site. The soundoff board was here: Correct Link.

This is the correct board. I feel that
there should be no error rate (that is like docking pay for leaving blanks). It is a big no no IMO. That is what QA is for.
Please do not correct spelling or grammar on this board. (NM)

We don't correct grammar or punctuation on this board...nm

I just saw an ad on the job board and found their website
http://mditrans.com/
Just found this board by accident one day
Glad I did at least I am not alone in this mess. I have been doing this for 9 years now with a 2 year break cause I was going nuts. I think I am hitting that point again. I feel like they treat you like crap. And the money used to be good all the sudden it isn't like they are playing with line counts.
Try this....I found it in the Jobs board, but it is from June.

I am a medical Transcriptionist who has over 15 years of experience and also have taught medical transcription and provided quality evaluations for graduating students at the college level. I am in the process of revamping my medical transcription business and have a spot for two either graduates or soon to be graduates to intern.

The internship will be paid at a starting rate of 0.06 cpl (65 char with spaces) while in training and then will go to 0.07 cpl. This is an wonderful opportunity to gain much needed experience as well as allowing you the opportunity to work from home.

Just reply by email if you are interested and tell me a bit about yourself for consideration. You will need a USB foot pedal and either cable or DSL. Also need to have a medical spellchecker and a willingness to learn and retain.

Please specify hours (times) and days available in your response.

Good luck to you.



You are a FUNNY person. I'm glad you found this board!
LOL

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed.  That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups.  Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge.  Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful.  Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges.  You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy.  You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now.  I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids.  My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play.  Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance.  Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem.  But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life.  Know what I mean?
Do it correct always. It will learn. Everyone has to do it correct all the time. nm

John and Paul.
I love them both as a team and separately.  Just think of all the wonderful music we lost out on because of Lennon's death. 
JOHN LENNON
Awesome wit, great songwriter, good looking as they come.....ummmm.  I miss him!
John Lennon
John Lennon died in 1980. By that time, the Beatles had parted. Paul was then "Paul McCartney and Wings". Paul is the one who broke up the Beatles. John was the main music writer. ACtually I think John and Paul were each better on their own.
Is this right? (location of JR in name): DOE, JOHN JR ? Thanks for your help. NM

John Lennon
I have always loved John Lennon.  He was my favorite from the first time I saw the Beatles on Ed Sullivan.  I was just a kid but I fell in love with John the minute I saw him.  I remember the day he died so vividly.  I was totally in shock, OMG, blew me away.  I miss John Lennon and his music.
Peace to you as well. Isn't that what John

was all about?


He didn't care about the money.  He just wanted everyone to be peaceful and understand that peace, love and kindness to all mankind was all that would matter.


It's a sad world with all of the hate and anger when there is so much to see and do and be thankful for.


I honestly think that John Lennon would have been absolutely mortifed, had he lived long enough to see all of the hate that has made our world crazy.


Like John said, "All we are saying. . . is give peace a chance."


 


Elton John
RadGuy.. Lucky You. I have seen him in concert. He is absolutely awesome. You won't be disappointed. By the way, I am a late 60s teenager. You will have fun!
Elton John
Are you in for a treat! I'm an old 70's teen too. Saw Elton twice in the 70's in his wild costume days - the first was denim shorts with suspenders and red and white striped knee socks. The second was a Emerald Green Lame' (lamay - not lame) tuxedo. He was awesome, very energetic.

Saw him again 11 years ago on tour with Billy Joel, outfit more toned down, and he didn't jump around as much, but just as awesome.

You've never been to a rock concert? Be prepared for it to be loud!!! My ears used to ring after them when I was younger, not so much any more, but very loud.

Just bought Elton John Chronicles a 3 CD set - has his 70's stuff - Elton John, Tumbleweed Connection, and Madman Across the Water. -- AWESOME set.

Have fun!!!
Elton John...

OMG! He was (hate to use this cliche, but it fits) AWESOME. It was in the beautiful US Bank Arena in Cincinatti - he sang almost ALL his old songs with these fantastic special effects. He just plowed thru all these classic songs without stopping for three hours. Just blew me away - even tho I was in the "nosebleed" section but it wasn't that high up and there was also a huge big screen. Definitely a peak experience. And no one puked on me!

John Mellencamp, 4 sure!

Picks me up whenever I'm down every time!  When I'm already up, it can make me smile!


My husband just started learning how to play guitar about 6 months ago and he can almost play Pink Houses!


If you are careful with putting the correct report in the correct report shell and patient, you will
not have any problems. I only take away this option when someone is careless. There can be NO room for error on this. One mistake can be very serious. Many do it well though, so just double check and you will be fine.

"Woman" (I think that's the name) by John Lennon (nm)
.
John Lennon was much more than about drugs. NM
.
The same goes for John and Yoko. They can preach to others
but they are not without sin. Why is it Ok for them to be judgmental of others and tell others how to live?
John Lennon was a bazillionaire. he had seen it
The only thing left at that point was to eat a placenta.  Look at it from that point of view.
John Lennon did NOT eat a placenta!
As he would say - rubbish.
Elton John just got married...to a MAN!

LOL...Merry Christmas John Boy!

:) Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and very Happy New Year! :)
