So this new temporary job that I took for 2 months is really rough on my body, mostly my hands, wrist, forearms, shoulders and back. It’s tedious work that pays only $10.00 per hour. But with the two breaks and one 30 minute lunch, I’m able to breath fresh air and walk briskly outdoors.

All day I’d enter data from medical records. The customer is supposed to pen (or tape the pre-printed) information, such as the MRN, DOS, DOB, order# and/or provider# somewhere on the ‘coversheet’ or at the top of page of the documents, which is delivered by courier, then scanned and uploaded for us to view for entering 8 hours per day, 40 hours per week!

But since I’ve been trained to look for data that originates from SOURCE DOCUMENTS and thanks to my background in the Sarbanes-Oakley compliance with my former boss, the data (as penned in their OWN handwriting whether by clerks, temps or whoever) does NOT match with what appears on the original! The customer is always right. I think NOT!

Today, I swear! Barry’s push for electronic medical records is NOT going to work because of sloppy works done by humans. Data entry sucks but it’s work. Let the robots take over this area just like the automation of manufacturing autos. Again, it’s all subsidized by the government. So we bottom-feeders shouldn’t care, whatsoever!

SOLUTION: The data for medical records MUST be entered once, reviewed many times over and audited; so that when people like us ARCHIVE the stuff, researching the records won’t be a hassle! This is the only way to consolidate data on anyone person. It’s almost next to impossible with the over-load of useless information on bio-units that will end up in the graves!

So for those scared of potential invasion of privacy into medical records, don’t worry. There’s too much crap! Too many people are sick and dying. And death awaits us all anyway! Who cares what ailments, procedures or remedies thereof could possibly make people better or live longer lives on this god-forsaken planet? NOONE!
