silly me catch/patch

Subject: silly me catch/patch

I just realized you asked about CATCH, NOT PATCH!

It's just one of those days!

Anyway, you couldn't pay me enough to have another blood patch, much less 3!

Oops!

Maybe it will catch on!

I had to laugh at that one. I like the idea of a single one being called a support "ho"

This is correct but there is a catch..
Subject: This is correct but there is a catch..

if the doc dictates "eleven thirty", then you would type it as 11:30 and make sure you use the digital format throughout the remainder of the report to keep consistency.  (i.e.: The patient had a palpable lump at 11:30 in the right breast and at 1:00 in the left breast.) Do not type 11:30 o'clock (even though some will actually dictate it that way).


If all locations are on the "whole" hour then you do use the format of 11 o'clock. 



cannot catch this one either...doc with accent

A 22-gauge long spinal needle was inserted directly into the (s/l-THEP)  joint.  It's not hip.  I'm sure of that.  It sounds like it starts with a TH or an F.  This is for a fusion for a spinal fracture.

Thanks! 


Silly ?
Subject: Silly ?

I feel silly asking this spelling of a non-medical word, s/l rehesitant is the word and I have noone to turn to right now to ask, so any clues?  I can pronounce it but cannot spell the darn thing.  The patient is resident or rehesitant to surgery. 


Thanks!

Subject: Here's my silly way of differentiating the two: sm

principle is belief--associating le with belief (same sound)

principal is main. a as in main.

BTW, "principle diagnosis" is INCORRECT!! That company is way off, unless it's the client that knows no better and is insisting on that spelling.

I have been transcribing for this doctor for some time now, and I swear he is saying


Hydrochlorothiazide 50 mg S/L in-cake.


He has never used this term before, and I cannot figure out if it is an abbrev. for something or what. He never says intake, and he lists 9 other medications in this reports that does not say this. Any help appreciated..maybe I am just hungry lol
