I love this doc otherwise, the dream dictator..always very clear (except for that) dictates in same order, to the point where I have a standard for his whole reports, very considerate, spells the hard ones, but he uses some very old fashion terminology at times,

thank you for your replies - suspect
Subject: thank you for your replies - suspect

this is another case of a doctor thinking he knows it all and spelling it incorrectly - he never did state the term, he just spelled it, which makes me suspect he does not know HOW to pronounce it! I painfully put what he dictated and will let him worry about it! Thanks again!

This can be very crippling disease.  I have a friend who is only 33 and cannot even scratch her own nose.  She cannot turn over in bed or do anything for herself.  It is a progressive illness.  When she was little, she could walk and do everything a normal child could and by the time she was a teenager she was in a wheelchair.  Now she is completely disabled.

The HIDA scan showed a normal ejection fraction of 60 percent. The gallbladder study showed a tiny gallbladder polyp but no stone or sludge. There was necrogenic density in the right lobe of the liver thought to represent hemangioma. There was also moderate gastric distention with concern about possible gastroparesis or outlet obstruction. EGD would therefore be recommended

This is from aamt.org regarding the CMT exam.  The CMT exam is taken in a testing center; therefore, there will be no internet access available, i.e., no chance of asking test questions at MTStars during the exam .

May I bring my own reference materials?
Reference materials are not allowed in the testing center, and none will be provided. Electronic aids such as spellcheckers and abbreviation expanders will not be permitted. One of the consequences of using secure testing centers is the elimination of reference materials. However, the exam has been designed so that a level 2 medical transcriptionist (as defined in AAMT’s "MT Job Descriptions") can pass using their critical thinking and problem solving skills and without using any reference materials.


Do I need to find my own proctor?
No. The new exam is being delivered at proctored testing centers.


That is all the info I have about it. Thank you
