Medical Transcription Process

Medical transcription has become a vital need for healthcare professionals. It deals with the process of converting the voice record reports into the text. These recorded reports are dictated by healthcare professionals or physicians and transformed into the text by medical transcription service provider. Let's see the process of medical transcription.

• Consultation - When a patient comes to a physician, he is examined on the basis of asked questions, received answers, diagnosis, and lab reports. After this, a physician sets the plan of treatment and discuss with the patient. 
• Dictation - After the process of consultation, a physician dictates information related to a patient consultation to the facility provided by a medical transcription service. This facility would be a digital recording machine or a toll free number. 
• Transfer - Medical transcription service provider provides you a secure and unique FTP (File Transfer Protocol) ID where you can upload your recorded file into the FTP server. The other way to transfer your information is to dictate directly into a toll free number.
• Recovery of Dictations - Recovery of dictation is followed by the step of transfer. Here, service provider downloads the transcribed file and forward it to the team of medical transcriptionists. 
• Actual Transcription - Once the file is received by the team of transcriptionists, it is gone through the process of transcription. This process includes transcription, editing and proofing. In this process transcriptionist use various tools such as word processing software, references, converters, sound and media players, foot pedals, headphones, etc. For maintaining the quality of the medical transcription quality assurance process is followed. 
• Retrieval of Completed Medical Transcription - Once transcriptionist completes the process of medical transcription, the file is uploaded to the same FTP server. The client is informed through the email.
