Re: I'm gonna kill her...!!!



And if there is an error in there that cannot be detected by just proofing (incorrect word that could fit), it then looks like it was her error at some point. I personally do not like doing this and have refused to do it for the MTSO I work for - it's not my regular work but to help her with the docs she transcribes. She uses a different word processor, different format, and different style, plus the doctor give no reference to even the first Dx on the list to make sure you get the right one. I do it on the doc I work for regularly, but he dictates it out so I simply use macros to pull it in automatically, but yet I have the ability to confirm it IS what he's saying.

It's more time consuming for me (when it isn't my work) than it is to type it out.

I don't like doing work that involves cutting and pasting work someone else did. It really seems like legal issue to me, as if they never proofed the cut and paste, it looks like your work and you should not have to be proofing what someone else did - never mind you can't be sure it was not mistranscribed.


Whether or not it was transcribed correctly originally is not our
problem. The physician has signed off on the prior reports we're
cutting and pasting from, so he's accepted them as accurate.

I don't see any reason why the MT shouldn't proof work done by someone
else - she's getting paid for the lines she's copying and pasting, so
she can spend a few minutes making sure there are no spelling errors.
After a couple months, it's all her work anyway because at some point
she's copying and pasting from reports she transcribed originally.
