About Medical Transcription
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
Evolution of transcription dates back to the 1960s. In the past, these medical reports consisted of very abbreviated handwritten notes that were added in the patient's file for interpretation by the primary physician responsible for the treatment. Ultimately, this mess of handwritten notes and typed reports were consolidated into a single patient file and physically stored along with thousands of other patient records in a wall of filing cabinets in the medical records department. Whenever the need arose to review the records of a specific patient, the patient's file would be retrieved from the filing cabinet and delivered to the requesting physician. To enhance this manual process, many medical record documents were produced in duplicate or triplicate by means of carbon copy.
In recent years, medical records have changed considerably. Although many physicians and hospitals still maintain paper records, there is a drive for electronic records. Filing cabinets are giving way to desktop computers connected to powerful servers, where patient records are processed and archived digitally. This digital format allows for immediate remote access by any physician who is authorized to review the patient information. Reports are stored electronically and printed selectively as the need arises.
To become a successful Medical Transcriptionist, one should have good English language skills, above-average keyboarding skills, sound medical knowledge, and working knowledge about computers.
A well-trained medical transcriptionist is of high demand in the market. According to US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Medical transcriptionists held about 98,000 jobs in 2006. Each doctor requires on an average two medical transcriptionists to handle all the records. This means that there is a theoretical demand for approximately 834,000 medical transcriptionists.
