I know, I have an OB clinic that is doing the same thing.  Sometimes you just have to say okay if that's the way you want it that's what you'll get and go on.  It's hard though, especially when you take pride in your work.

 

I noticed right away that you had fixed the templates and it was wonderful.  I found each one I needed right away.

 

Don't let it bother you, I think you did a great job cleaning those up, they were a mess.

Listen to the voice file
Subject: Listen to the voice file

I keep all my voice files for at least three months. If I happen to get a QA tif back, I always go back and listen to the voice file and compare. Find out what the policy is on that account. I have found that some accounts expect corrections and others, right or wrong, expect verbatim transcription. I am blessed that the accounts that I edit and transcribe allow me to use good judgment.

I thought I was losing my mind when I heard "beetle nuts." Now that I have this information, I'm writing it down for future reference. We have a lot of Asian patients in this practice and it is probably what he was dictating. That's what I like about this business - you learn something new EVERY day! That's also what's great about our MT boards - MTs willing to help each other continually learn.
