AAMT/AHDI BOS- sm
Subject: AAMT/AHDI BOS- sm
 AAMT BOS started out to be a wonderful set of guidelines for medical transcription. They helped to make medical records uniform, and gave us a fantastic reference. Now, I'm afraid, all they are doing is making changes in order to sell books and eBooks. Also to keep their test changing.
If there are updates made by JCAHO, etc. or any necessary changes, AHDI could create updates to their eBook and addendums to the paper variety. This would almost never have to be done.
When AHDI comes up with changes they want to make, it causes many problems for us because some folks use the new edition, and some do not. Even if everyone does use the new edition, there is always a gap of time between when everyone obtains it.
I think every company should choose one of the editions and go with it. Don't update, it just confuses everyone and is completely unnecessary. Then, just keep an eye on JCAHO recommendations, and if anything truly changes from an official standpoint, it can be taken care of at that time.
K, I'm off my soapbox now.
