Oops, forgot this was in regards to
my hubbys work. He has to drive probably about 6 or 7 miles to get to his terminal-he drives one of the 18 wheelers. Now get this, he brings home (with taxes taken out) more in a week than I make in 2 weeks but I am gonna DEMAND to his job, probably will write that letter later on today, that they pay for his gas in order for him to come to that high paying job. I am rolling in the floor laughing as I type this. Thanks for the laff of the day.
Oops, I forgot the bird flu. nm

oops...forgot my "s"...that should be desperately! and I am!
oops, I forgot to answer your question. sm
I didn't mean to say 2 lists open at same time, but only 2 can be merged at same time. Does that make sense now?
Oops! Forgot to mention the pedal!
Sorry. The pedal and headphones both plug into the dictaphone.
Sorry for the confusion.

Oops..sorry your right. I forgot that. I specifically ordered my Windows XP as Vista is compatible w
Just about every computer has Vista now but I went through Dell and found the computer I wanted with Windows XP and then went into ebay and got it $400 cheaper than what Dell was going to charge..The one downfall, it didnt have Office Word etc.. installed so I had to buy that but I still came out ahead.
I typed the "F" word the other day and didn't think
That's our job to type what the dictator says. I don't like typing filthy words like that but if they say it, I type it. And she said it, so I typed it!!
I could have typed it faster and better using my word expanders.
This is the echo heard all over about ASR and companies have the nerve to want to cut salaries by 20% because ASR is supposed to increase production?!?!?
forgot to add...I have Word 2003

oops, paid 0.0125 per word.

Whoops...I forgot - cranberry sauce, too. My husband would kill me if I forgot the cranberry sauce!
Just typed in an HP
Under the ROS the heading "Special Senses: Unremarkable"
I once typed for a doc who had
now that was funny!
Maybe that ad was typed by VR... or by an
It irks me no end that our country has shipped off a job to India/Pakistan, etc., that used to be considered important to the medical field, and which fed and housed many of our country's middle-class citizens. So now these foreigners are living the comfy middle-class life, and here I am, trying to rent an apartment and finding that my MT monthly gross pay doesn't qualify me for ANYthing that even distantly resembles a decent middle-class apartment. The only ones I can afford all have "Se habla espanol" in the ads, and of course you know who lives THERE! It's all the non-English-speaking illegals that we've pretty much given carte blanche to come ruin our country, after having done a real number on their own. I hope Uncle Sam enjoys paying for food stamps, welfare, and subsidized housing, 'cause that's where I'm headed unless this profession turns around.
Never typed an ESL??...sm
Now that is strange. As many ESLs as there are. And using the q.d. and h.s. they must have worked somewhere that they didn't use BOS.
--I think she has already typed them.

I have always typed mg/dl and I've been
transcribing early 20 years and have never heard anything about KCl. I currently work for a service that has a very rigid account and we have had to change several things to avoid confusion, though they have never mentioned this one. I would think it would be a personal preference. We use BOS as a rule of thumb, but on Tuesdays and the holiday following the third Saturday of the monh between 8 and 10 we do it this way, and then doctor X wants it done this way, which is totally different from standards, not a coherent dictation but he wants it his way.
Only typed verbatim twice
once for a Russian infectious disease MD. After one week of strict verbatim reports, evidently she got a talking to by the senior partner and her style became acceptable.
The hospital is one of the larget and most respected hospitals in the US. All residents much pass a week-long course dedicated strictly to how to chart, how to document, how to dictate. Each resident must personally sign his/her own name daily on a log in sheet and anyone who misses a day does not get to start with the rest of peers. One day is devoted SOLEY to HOW TO DICTATE and accepting full legal responsibility for the dictation. They have to sign an agreement that the hospital will not provide legal support if their documentation falls short of their standards and the resident has to provide his/her own funding against any lawsuit. If they dictate a reversal of pulse rate/respiratory rate, I could switch them, but I had to send it to QA who attached a note to the dictator covering the MTSO from any repercution.
Best dictators I EVER had!
I typed in my sleep once...sm
it was a late shift, about midnight (which is late for me) and I got up to go downstairs, move around, stay awake, came back and found I had typed something about a TV in a box...? So it can be done!
Proofing as you go...as in looking at what you typed?
Doesn't everyone? Or do some MTs watch TV or look up in the air while typing? LOL! That is not proofreading - proofreading is double-checking a finished document.
No, it was a report I typed. Now will you tell me off
a
I typed ENT for 6 years and
charged 14-16 cpl but that was about 4 years ago when you could charge that. I printed everything and picked up, delivered. I eventually had to drop the rate down to 10-12 cpl to keep the docs and then they found someone who would do their work for 8 cpl.
I think you are in the ballpark as well. Good luck.
I have to agree -- not only have I typed ERs for sm
people with cold symptoms, flu, snotty nose, etc., and wondered "why in the heck are they in the ER?," I have also witnessed it firsthand while waiting in the ER with my mom. She had congestive heart failure and towards the end we made frequent trips to the ER when she ended up unable to breathe and no doctor's office open. They always ended up admitting her anyway. But I watched the same thing that the poster below mentioned -- nonemergent cases clogging up the works because they treat the ER like a doctor's office.
And yes, there are "special circumstances" and such, but that was not the situation you were addressing. Sorry for the attacks you received. You just put in writing the thing that many of us have been thinking for quite awhile.
I HEAR ya, but only because you typed it.
I am with you. They really are clueless, aren't they!
Oh, okay, like not something we have never TYPED in a report before then...
Gotcha!
dictated / typed
Doctor says "jiddo, jiddo, jiddo" - what does this mean" Why.... 0-0-0 - OMG. The things we put up with for no money.
If they know they've been typed.
Why can't you skip over those patients since obviously they know other girl typed them.
Do not transcribe for free! Ever wonder why the other girl left?
"Qualified MT" just typed ...
Arthrosclerotic heart disease. This is an MT claiming to have 5+ years experience and wants to be paid .10 per line.
Any test I have taken I have typed
verbatim exactly because you do not know what they actually want. Also, need to follow BOS guidelines on tests as most MTSOs use these.
Sorry, typed the above without glasses

I recently typed an EGD....sm.
The patient had choked on a piece of meat and had it lodged in his throat. The whole report for some reason by hands did not want to type food...always foot. I felt pretty confident that I did a good job correcting all of them and sent the report on.
Two days later the doctor sends it back and asks me to change it. No big deal, must have made a different mistake....NO I was so mad at myself that I sent this report that stated "foot was removed from the esophagus". It was embarassing then but now it is pretty funny to me.
got it, DUH. havent typed a Pap in forever.

Could it be Gemzar? I just typed that last night. nm
..
Yes, that's why it's funny. If we only typed exactly what they dictated....

I once typed on a VA Hospital - will never forget it. There was a
 brain surgery dictated by the surgeon, a D.M.D.
Read what you just typed. If somone else
had typed it, I believe you would say:
This is for the good of the family. Your husband is being unreasonable. There are ways of dealing with the little problems. In the end, it will be well worth the sacrifice EVERYONE has made.
I typed out the same thought but erased it...

I've typed such reports
Well not celebrities so to speak, but I've typed reports where they state the patient is being seen under an alias name right at the beginning of their dictation and the alias name is the one in the ADT screens. They deserve some privacy and still abide by HIPAA like the rest of us.
Just typed my 1st facelift report and I must say
I'll never have one done. It has to be the grossest report I have ever typed. When I do op notes I find it very helpful to visualize in my mind what the surgeon is doing. Well, with this report, I was ready to heave all the way through it. My face can wrinkle and sag til the cows come home cause I will never have facelift done. YUK!
I typed Dr. Cap'n Crunch eater this a.m.
I could hear him slurping to keep the milk from running down his chin.
I typed my PCP's report and she was upset with me.
I was an IC and typing in the evening and it was impossible to skip over it the way the system is set up, so I typed it. She clearly had a change of attitude the next time I saw her. It was a big mistake. I am lucky I was not fired
Sorry I typed the wrong poster name for this
--OOPS!
Two docs I typed for--- 2 hour for
one, give or take,and 4 hours for the other...the 4 hour doc put twice as much on the tape. If he had a good day I could do it faster. Some days I was dizzy and confused, he talked so fast.
I once typed up sermon notes from
handwritten notes. Never have I seen such tiny handwriting. I was only in my 20s and normally didn't mind typing from notes, but it was brutal. I couldn't believe how many pages there were of it - how could this be one sermon, I wondered.
I'd definitely want to hear how bad or good his dictation was before I took it on.
New Doctor, some patients already typed
I got a new doctor. They girl who had been working for him left him in a big mess, undone dictations, etc. The office gave me a flashdrive to do with about 30 patients on it over the holiday weekend. Today they've told me ten patients had already been typed, how did I want to handle that? It seems they don't want to pay me for these. My husband says to bite the bullet and not charge them, since this is a new account and I'd like to keep it, is possible. What do you think? I know it's a land of confusion there from what is done to what is not done. Thanks!
In-document typed time
My company is now tracking our "typed time" versus the hours we put on our time sheets. In other words. The exact amount of time that we are actually typing rather than doing other things that might be related to the job. If there is too much of a discrepancy between what we put on our time cards and the "typed time" we get warnings. Is anyone else experiencing this? 
I apologize if this posts twice. I've never posted before.
I typed 600 lines more this week than I usually do
(working extra hours) and my pay for the week is still 50 dollars short because of the VR pay. I don't know if we should say something to our companies about this or what or if it would even help but it really ticks me off!
Verbatim means that the typed version is the same as the
dictated version, AKA the end result is the same. You can still use an expander because even if the entire report is not the same, people speak with the same terminology, phrases, and mannerisms day after day. I love the physical examination portion of my reports because I have every variation of every sentence in my expander. Sometimes, there will be one or two small differences that I change, but for the most part, it's the same. Every exam has "His height is" or "Her height is". With three keystrokes, either hsh or hrh, I get 13 characters and a capitalized first letter.
