Medical Transcriptionist Training

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, doctors dictate (record a voice file) information for a medical record or document.

The medical transcriptionist is the key person who "transcribes" medical information (converts reports from dictated form to 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 medical transcriptionists. Medical transcriptionists must know medical terminology thoroughly, must have a command of English grammar, and be efficient with technology, especially 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.

Medical transcriptionists enjoy many benefits, including:

1. Train at home to work at home
2. High demand = High income
3. Growing Market = Job security
4. Flexibility
5. Quality time with family
6. No daycare costs
7. No commute
8. Finish training quickly - Set own pace
9. Comfortable, home-based career
10. Rewarding, interesting work
