For people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), preparing taxes can feel like an impossible feat. Tax prep requires using the very skills that are challenges for people with ADHD — the symptoms of the disorder. Symptoms such as being easily distracted, being disorganized and having difficulty with details become major obstacles. But while it can seem incredibly overwhelming, tax time isn’t an insurmountable challenge. Below, experts take you through the A to Z of preparing your taxes and cutting out paper clutter. Your Tax Prep Plan One of the mistakes people with ADHD — or anyone fo...

Maybe all of you have heard of “The Impossible Day” but I found the concept interesting and it seems like EMR software could be well positioned to control this issue. Is this a major problem or only a problem for a few people that like to code too high? The RAC audits are an interesting and mindful subject. Some practices have been getting into trouble with the “impossible day” which their EMR’s seem to help perpetuate. Some seem to end up with more documentation in files, but when RAC auditors do the math on how long the docs are supposed to be legitemately spending, its not adding up… Thereby “The ...

We don’t know this, we don’t know that, we need more training, we are overpaid, we are lazy and so on. It is deeply depressing and saps morale.The medical story this morning was different. It was precise and to the point. British junior hospital doctors are incompetent, inexperienced, negligent fools who are allowing patients to die of acute renal failure, an illness that is eminently treatable if only it is promptly diagnosed. “It can be diagnosed at the bedside with a simple blood test” suggested the egregious twat of an academic who was clearly enjoying his two minutes of perceived fame on the...

I do now,  for I have seen the list that a GP made of all the administrators in her PCT who send her emails.Your mission, should you chose to accept it, is to look at the list, study the job titles, work out what exactly it is that each of these people does, guess what salary they are paid and what index-linked pension they will each draw when they are finished, and calculate the annual cost to the taxpayer.Good luck, Jim. The NHS will self-destruct in three months. (Source: NHS Blog Doctor) NHS Blog Doctor blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=2149605 Sat, 31 Jan 2009 09:53:00 +0100 2149605
