October 23, 2009 9:43 AM by Cheryl McEvoy
October is National Poppin' Popcorn Month, so naturally a few of us at the office decided to celebrate with a culinary nod to those explosive kernels. I went the semi-homemade route, popping a bag and mixing it up with marshmallows, chocolate chips, raisins Read More...

“Cash for Clunkers” Hits Health Care
September 10, 2009 4:04 PM by Cheryl McEvoy
The government's "Cash for Clunkers" program was a clever idea--and a pretty successful one to boot. Dealerships swelled with drivers ready to trade in their rag-tag autos for a sleek new ride. Salespeople moved inventory, the environment got some smog Read More...

August 28, 2009 9:56 AM by Cheryl McEvoy
We're back for the third installment of our "Difficult Personalities" series. So far, we've escaped the needy co-worker's grasp and busted the " ghost " employee's vanishing routine. This time, we'll scale the know-it-all's mental pedestal to get a better Read More...

Registry: Child's Play?
August 6, 2009 10:43 AM by Cheryl McEvoy
Call me a bandwagoner, but I just started reading Julie and Julia (Quite frankly, I'm just a wannabe foodie who wanted something to breeze through after being semi-forced into reading a 500-page sci-fi book). I was poring through Julie Powell's witticisms Read More...

ACE 09: Telling Transcription's Tale
July 31, 2009 1:23 PM by Cheryl McEvoy
The story at ACE today is all about...well, THE story. More specifically, how to show the value of narrative text so transcription can stay relevant in the switch to EHRs. But the "story" theme went beyond the record; in fact, it can represent several Read More...

ACE 09: Expect the Unexpected
July 29, 2009 10:59 PM by Cheryl McEvoy
I usually have good luck when traveling. I've only temporarily lost baggage once (it was sent to another carousel), and my plane's landed ahead of schedule more times than I can count. So when I decided to carry on my bags for the flight to Nashville, Read More...

July 28, 2009 12:06 PM by Cheryl McEvoy
I'm off to Nashville tomorrow for the Association for Healthcare Documentation Integrity's (AHDI) Annual Convention and Expo (ACE), and I couldn't be more excited to toss off the headphones (those interviews don't transcribe themselves!) for a few days Read More...

Difficult Personalities: The Ghost Employee
July 24, 2009 8:44 AM by Cheryl McEvoy
It's somewhere, out there, in cyberspace. At least you think it is. It's that e-mail you sent 4 days ago that has yet to yield a response. The co-worker who seemed oh-so-willing to partner with you on a project has suddenly vanished, and you're stuck Read More...

Retail Clinic Check-up
June 25, 2009 3:30 PM by Lynn Jusinski
I'm what you might call "doctor phobic." I haven't had a check up since 2001, and that was required to get into college. After high school, I moved to the Philadelphia suburbs from quiet nook upstate in a rural area lovingly referred to as the "Polish Read More...

I was tickled that 500 of you took the time to fill out our fun, brief survey on "What Makes HIM Professionals Tick?" A second installment is currently posted on our Web site , and I hope the response is as good for that one. Thanks to everyone who took Read More...
