Been thinking about entering the health care industry? Or maybe,
start off a career as a Medical Transcriptionist? If so, then you must be thinking what a typical day in
the life of a Medical Transcriptionist will be
like?
In a way, it can be said that Medical
Transcriptionists are a very important part and play
an essential role in the health care industry. You take the audio files of
doctors, medical experts or healthcare specialists and transcribe them into
written documents. This needs to be done so that the medical personnel that is
diagnosing or taking care of the patients are having all the necessary information
about their patients.
You
will rarely interact with patients however; the role you play is going to be
crucial. You may be employed in a doctor’s office, MT service providing
companies or choose to simply work from home. In a typical day, you take the
recordings of doctors and feed them into the computer database. Also, expand
the abbreviated versions and shorthands of doctors into language form which
can be understood by the audience at large. Like a good medical transcriptionist,
you need to be acquainted with all the medical terminology along with how to
use speech recognition software.
So
hold on tight & give it a try…it might be the career for you & of
course, won't be something you will regret about!!!
