Every time a patient is admitted to a hospital, or is seen in an emergency room, or has an x-ray - anytime there is a patient interaction with a medical professional, a report is generated. Hundreds of thousands of such reports are dictated every single day.

The medical transcriptionist is the key person who transforms those reports from the dictated form to the written form, to be produced as hard copy or sent to storage in a computer system.

As long as people get sick, injured, or visit medical personnel for other reasons, there will be a job for a medical transcriptionist. That transcriptionist must know medical terminology thoroughly, must have a command of English grammar, and be efficient on the keyboard. Transcriptionists must be able to work independently, know how to research unfamiliar terms and phrases, and be conscientious workers with a good eye for detail.

At Healthcaremeditrans, our emphasis is on the importance of quality transcription. Our key people at Healthcaremeditrans have come out of the working transcription environment. They know that while there are many transcriptionists out there, really excellent ones are relatively hard to find.Our goal is to produce that kind of transcriptionist.
