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

Subject: now i'm curious...

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 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.
