The account that I am on
Subject: The account that I am on

The account I type is "almost verbatim".  We type subcu, but in the lab values we have to expand the workds (alkaline phosphatase, et cetera).  If a word is dictated that is not a known abbreviation, we have to type it out.  I think each account is different, and as the other poster said, they should have given you an client form so that you would know what the hospital expects. Sounds like your guy kinda got his tail in a crack and felt like he needed to unload on a poor, innocent MT who was just trying to do her job!  Hang in there!      W'e're cheering for you!

Does your account use the BOS 2?
Subject: Does your account use the BOS 2?

That's the source of the "Don't capitalize it when it stands alone" rule. My suggestion would be to follow BOS if your account uses that and to be consistent. Stedman's is (are?) notorious for inconsistency with this sort of thing.
system
Subject: system

Below is the paragraph.  Cannot find s/l Nuez, news? 


The patient would like to get his s/l Nuez system again.  This is basically an erectile dysfunction system that I have prescribed before.  It is an older system, but it worked very well for him.  I would much rather him do that than use an oral drug.  So I wrote him for that today as well. 


Thanks in advance.

Which system?
Subject: Which system?

Sorry for such a stupid question that I should know, but I am drawing an absolute complete blank on this one (just one of those dementia moments)...In physical exam what system would I list this under.  I'm drawing a blank thinking maybe genitalia, pelvic, rectal or what (none of it looks right to me).  I've been sitting staring at it for about 10 minutes now and have just confused myself.This is the info...


Penis is uncircumcised.  He has a 16-French Foley catheter in place.  There is clear urine output.  Testicles are descended bilaterally.  His prostate is 50 grams and benign.  He has normal sphincter tone.


Thanks much

Go with what your QA tells you.  It may be acceptable but the doctor may not like/want it done that way.  I've found every account has different rules and preferences.

So, looks like this is one of those that is up in the air and probably something to talk to company QA about? 


 


Is this a verbatim account?
Subject: Is this a verbatim account?

If not, it would make more sense like this:

It would help beneficial organisms AND commensals bacteria colonize his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.

If not, then I would type:
It would help beneficial organisms, commensals bacteria colonozie his colon and help as a first line of protection against disease.

Since they want the beneficial bacteria and commensals bacteria to colonize his colon, there is no need for a comma before colonize.
