Can someone tell me why it changed from transcribing "diabetes mellitus type II" to "diabetes mellitus type 2".  I am just curious.

K  -- when the doc dicates the patient is a 1-year-old though 10-year-old should the ages be typed out or Arabic numerals?  I believe BOS says the above -- however QA for the new company says "typed out"   --- grrr

for years i've been using low-back pain as a pain of the low back


just like i've been using small-bowel disease as a disease of the small bowel


i figured that the "low" and the "small" refer to the "back" and the "bowel," respectively, but i'm so open to the reasoning why it should not be hyphenated....


since they're terms i use every single day, i would really appreciate clarification....


thanks!

I also do plastic/reconstructive surgery reports and am wondering about these words as well, i.e. if okay combined or not:


back lift    arm lift    thigh lift   neck lift   


I know that browlift is okay


thank you
