Overview

About Medical Transcription Services

Medical transcription turns a clinician's dictated audio into written documents such as visit notes, letters and reports. It lets clinicians document in their own words without typing, while the practice receives text it can file and use.

We provide transcription as a documentation service. The work follows the clinician's dictation and your formatting preferences. Anything unclear in the audio is marked for the clinician rather than guessed at, and the clinician reviews the document before it is final.

What the work can include

  • Transcribing dictation into documents in your preferred format
  • Following your templates, terminology lists and style preferences
  • Marking unclear audio or terms for the clinician to confirm
  • Returning documents on an agreed timetable for review
  • Keeping a log of what was received, returned and corrected

How it fits with your team

Turnaround expectations, how dictation is delivered and how documents are returned are agreed with your practice at the start, along with the access needed.

Common challenges

Where administrative work tends to get stuck

Practices come to us when routine business tasks start taking more time and attention than they should.

  • Work without a clear owner

    Tasks are shared between people who are also busy with patients, so follow-up is easy to miss.

  • Inconsistent processes

    Each person does the same task a little differently, which makes errors harder to spot.

  • Scattered documentation

    Information sits in email, paper files and separate systems, and is slow to find when it is needed.

  • Limited visibility

    It is hard to see what is in progress, what is waiting and what needs a decision.
