 Subject: You might not like this one, but I would go by what QA said on the previous report. This way you have verification in writing of why you chose to keep it this way in case you are questioned on your choice of interpretation. I know we are looking for common sense but we are transcriptions and as we know that is not even close to always being the case in MD dictations.

 According to BOS
 
 eponyms
 
 "While the use of the possessive form with eponyms remains acceptible, AAMT's preference is generally to drop the possessive form.
 
 Apgar score, Babinski sign, Down syndrome, Gram stain, Hodgkin lymphoma.
 
 Sometimes an awkward construction calls for use of the possessive form.  This patient suffers from Hodgkin's."

 on this same question.  Is this an ENT account?  The best thing would be see if you can get verification from the account, might be some name they have for their own conconction of Maalox, Benadryl and Xylocaine.  I've seen plenty of things misspelled in reports, even standards handed out by an account itself...

 Hi,
 
 I think you're right about cervix (vs. service)--apparently he's just pronouncing it a little slurry and it just makes more "sense".
 
 I've listened and listened, but I'm certain that Babcock is not it even if he's saying it badly.  I hear nothing at all prior to "koch".
