The nature of her chest wall spasms is not clear. The first thing that comes to mind is herpes, but this would have to be herpes syn rash. There does not appear to be a cutaneous component to it, and postherpetic neuralgia is less likely but still remains the most likely diagnosis.

Facial skin rash
Subject: Facial skin rash

Hi all,


I am now in a panic on this one.  I have spent an hour looking for this word.  The patient has the diagnosis of photosensitive allergic dermatitis and only has a rash on the face.  Toward the end of the report the doctor dictates the following: We did discuss _______ but this is not clinically that diagnosis.  The blank sounds like ericiproteous OR a resiprotus.  Thanks for your help and time.

If you have a date that reads something like -"LAD test 11/20/08 with the finding of etc" Should there be a comma after the date or is that just when they are spelled out like "november 20, 2008,"  Can't seem to find this in the BOS. Maybe just missing it somewhere.  


Thanks

but I think each hospital/client has a preference. I am going to be doing a different account where I work and now they want the dates as 6/30/2006. Go figure. They are trying to make us all crazy.

Are you working on your own or for a company? I would find out what the preference is if it is a company.
