Medical transcription outsourcing: Provides access to the right team

It has been acknowledged that the healthcare process draws inputs from various sources to provide quality services. One of the inputs that aid the healthcare process is information from patient records. Patient records document the details of the ailment, the symptoms, the tests/procedures administered, the diagnosis, the treatment provided and the progress made by the patient. Patient medical records provide historical content regarding the health history of the patient and context regarding the patient. Having proper documentation takes away the need for guesswork and prevents wastage of resources.

Medical transcription is the process of creating patient medical records from the dictation provided of the patient- healthcare professional encounter. However medical transcription is a specialized skill requiring the right combination of a trained team, technology and a streamlined process to produce the desired result of accurate, timely, secure and cost effective records.

Of all the ingredients that contribute to quality medical transcription, the right team of skilled and trained medical transcriptionists is vital. However the process of recruiting and training the right talent can be a time consuming process, which would dilute the focus of the healthcare facilities and healthcare professionals on the core business of providing quality healthcare.

Outsourcing medical transcription provides healthcare professionals and healthcare facilities access to the right team. The outsourced medical transcription service provider would have a process for sourcing, recruiting and training medical transcriptionists to become specialists.

What are the advantageous of having access to a team of trained medical transcriptionists?

• Accuracy: Accuracy of information captured in the patient medical records is one of the most important factors as this information forms the basis of continued care, reflects the appropriateness of care and helps in filing proper claims. Skilled medical transcriptionists who are well versed in the language of the specialty they are transcribing for would ensure that they capture all the details with maximum accuracy. Skilled medical transcriptionists would also ensure that they apply context where applicable to correct minor discrepancies using their knowledge of the specialty and the healthcare professional they are transcribing for

• Speed: Along with accuracy the other most important factor that affects quality care and the reimbursement process is the availability of timely information. Well-trained medical transcriptionists would ensure that not only are the transcripts accurate, but also available on time.

• Customization: The level of service required by healthcare professionals would vary according to their specialty, the treatment situation and various other factors. Well trained medical transcriptionists would help in the process of customizing services according to the specific needs of healthcare professionals and healthcare facilities.
