The Eyes Have It

Medical transcriptionists spend several hours a day staring at their computer screens. This can lead to eye strain and other visual problems over time. That is why it is important to take preventative measures to ward off unnecessary visual disabilities.

Short breaks can help alleviate or lessen symptoms of eye strain and other visual problems caused by staring at a computer monitor for long periods of time. Practice moving your eyes to distant objects periodically or closing your eyes for a moment or two. Another thing to try is adjusting the brightness of your monitor to a more comfortable level. Adjust the distance you sit from the monitor and its angle to lessen the glare on the screen. Consider purchasing a glare-reduction filter or adjusting the lighting in the room you are working in. A little prevention can go a long way; especially over time. So, try putting these practices into use and see the difference for yourself!

Doctors/Physicians joins Medical Transcription BPO

Moving into healthcare sector and medical transcription, the job opportunities for doctors and nurses in the country are getting widened, an industry expert said.

In a BPO firm, the job of a doctor can include medical billing, transcription and coding for the US hospitals.

Medical transcription, also known as MT, is an allied health profession, which deals in the process of transcription, or converting voice-recorded reports as dictated by physicians and/or other healthcare professionals into text format.

Medical Transcription Industry back in action ????

It was almost a cottage industry in the 90s, only to lose steam in 2000. 

But if you thought the medical transcription (MT) industry in India is history, think again. 
Latest studies reveal that it is raring to take off yet again. And this time, the future is well chalked out. 

When it took off in the 90s, anyone with a little space and enterprise opened an unit in their living room. 

Unfortunately, the boom didn't last and hit rock bottom in 2001. The reason: Too many entrants, lack of entrepreneural skills and knowledge of industry and security issues. Many small players opted out. 

But since 2004, the sector has slowly but steadily worked its way up. Now, it generates revenues worth $195 million. The figure is expected to go upto $647 million by 2010, according to ValueNotes study. 

In fact, the study found that at present, India-based MT vendors employ around 18,000; by 2010, the numbers will go up to 52,000. A Nasscom study released last month too confirms this northward move of the Indian MT industry. It says India has 120 to 150 MT companies which earn an annual income of $220 to $240 million. 

According to experts the industry will witness further consolidation with large American MT service organizations eyeing smaller Indian offshore vendors 

Experts say there has been a systematic ramp-up and a steady flow of business from the US to India which is our largest market. 

Fun While Doing Transcription.

Fun While Doing Transcription.

We are working in the profession of Medical Transcription and like other profession it also has highs and lows. Although this profession puts you through a lot of challenges but some times it is hilarious that you will really enjoy to work in such profession. On a day-to-day basis we deals with various doctors from different specialty, some doctors you find as interested to really work upon whereas on the other hand there are some you will find them as boring. There are certain instances that really make Medical transcription profession as a joyful profession rather than a tedious one.

One day while transcribing a report I comes across a report where doctor said “Hey, I am telling you not to touch that. Why, don’t you listen to me.” That was instruction to his son not to the MT. That became joke of the day.

In an another medical transcription report doctor dictated “The patient is 29 years of age and had more than 200 sex partners.” That become discussion topic among Medical Transcriptionists.


Sometimes what happens while dictating a report, in the background you listen to a song that you will find to your liking.

The next instance that I have experienced myself while working on a medical transcription report was simply unbelievable. While dictating a report, the doctor started talking to somebody and I thought that he might be talking to somebody in the house or in the clinic, but when the conversation finished up, the doctor was actually working with his/her the dog and giving it a bath. This really sounds very interesting to me and I shared this experience of mine with everybody.

Sometime while editing the reports in every company editors comes across the phrases that makes them laugh and at the same time they feel pity over the medical transcriptionist as they type such things that are sound and look alike. For example, “The patient was having some light snakes in the evening”, but it should be, “The patient was having some light snacks in the evening”, so these phrases really make you laugh.

One interesting case an editor can really come across while editing the reports is linked with the vital signs of the patient and in most of the cases it is related to weight of the patient as the transcriptionist some time writes the weight as 2500 pounds or like that, so that is really next to impossible as the doctor might have dictated it as 250 pounds.

In American there are different doctors from different countries throughout the world, while dictating they are really not able to speak some words in English then they dictates such words in their mother tongue, and these type of cases mostly happens with the doctor who are coming from India especially from Punjab as some time they speak certain words in their Punjabi decent that a person fails to make up what the doctor has dictated as transcriptionistor editor might be from Punjab or not.

How Useful is Six Sigma For The Medical Transcription Businesses?

Six Sigma may have been originally devised as a quality management system for use in the manufacturing sector, but over the years it has proved so versatile that now even businesses in the services sector have started using Six Sigma to reduce errors and improve the efficiency of their existing business processes. One of the most recent additions to the list of Six Sigma beneficiaries has been the medical transcription business.

In medical transcription, the thing that often makes all the difference between success and failure is the number of errors that might have been made by a transcription company. Most of the medical transcription projects are now outsourced to third party medical transcription companies and since clients expect a very high level of performance, these companies just cannot afford to make mistakes.

This is the reason why many of these companies have now started deploying time-tested and highly-effective quality control management methodologies such as Six Sigma. To get a better understanding of how useful Six Sigma actually is for the medical transcription companies, we'll discuss some of its associated benefits.

Significant Reduction in Transcription Errors

Since lives depend on accuracy, medical transcription executives just cannot afford to make errors while converting voice messages into electronic text form. Not to mention the transcription company's losses in case the errors exceed the acceptable limits, leading to the decommissioning of the entire project. However, since transcriptionists also have to meet deadlines, it often becomes quite difficult to achieve that perfect balance of productivity and quality. This is exactly where Six Sigma comes into play.

What Six Sigma does is that it helps businesses to identify the root cause that might have been responsible for the majority of errors committed by transcriptionists. Six Sigma focuses on the majority simply because it's just not possible for a company to look into each and every error committed while transcribing. After identifying the root cause, Six Sigma helps businesses to devise effective solutions that are acceptable to both the top management officials and the transcription executives hired by the company.

This way Six Sigma is able to solve the problems without affecting the morale and motivation of the employees. 

Improved Quality Control

By combining statistical tools and techniques with advanced IT systems, Six Sigma enables transcription companies to keep an effective check over the final output. This certainly helps in improving output quality, but what is even better is that the objective is achieved without incurring huge costs. This becomes a possibility because most of the quality control systems are automated and have the capability to identify even the most difficult to detect errors and inaccuracies that might have occurred while transcribing.

Since no additional manpower is required for improving and maintaining the desired quality levels, medical transcription companies are able to make huge savings and that too without compromising on quality.

Six Sigma in the medical transcription business may be a relatively new phenomenon, but still there are many instances that prove the usefulness of Six Sigma in this highly demanding business domain. For proof, you just have to compare the "before and after" financial statements of the transcription companies that have implemented Six Sigma. You can then easily notice that the results after the implementations are far better than they were earlier.

Employing Competitive Edge Technology

In medical transcription process, a physician dictates SOAP notes into recorders or into a dictation server through a telephone. These voice files are sent to a medical transcription company or to a transcriptionist to transcribe and they return a refined document of required medical information.

In Today’s competitive environment a fast paced medical service requires a fast paced medical transcription. Hence transcription service provider has to have quick turn around time.

The another differentiator is a quality and the process of controlling it. Effective records of SOAP notes, especially in the quantities supplied by medical offices, require the technological ability to not only record medical transcription but also to track it and store it.
