Medical transcription (MT) is the manual processing of voice reports dictated by physicians and other healthcare professionals into text format. The electronic health record (EHR) or electronic medical record (EMR) system at the hospital typically receives the digitally prepared and filed transcribed medical reports. A person's medical history, symptoms, examination findings, diagnostic test results, treatment plan, and other aspects of their care are all documented in their medical records. They are essential for interprofessional communication and care continuity. Insurance coverage issues or even treatment and care problems may result from flaws in medical records. Legal requirements require carers to keep complete and accurate records on every patient. Medical transcriptionists collaborate with healthcare professionals to ensure that every visit is recorded in order to have a thorough record of the diagnosis, the recommended course of treatment, and any necessary follow-up care.
Duties involved in a medical transcription service
Transcribe the voice recordings of a patient's medical history for a variety of medical specialties including radiology, acute care and oncology.
Interpret medical data, classify information from notes, patient records, operation reports, consultations, and discharge summaries.
To assure the precision of medical terminology and improve patient care, review and revise the transcription produced by speech recognition software, etc.
Market Dynamics
Increasing adoption of inorganic growth strategies, such as merger among key market players in the market to expand its business, is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in October 2022, Optum, Inc., a healthcare company, announced that it had completed its merger with Change Healthcare, a provider of revenue and payment cycle management. A more simple, intelligent, and adaptable healthcare system for patients, payers, and providers is a goal shared by the partnered companies. In order for health care providers and payers to provide patients with quality care, the combination will link and streamline the essential clinical, administrative, and payment procedures. The entire health system will benefit from increased efficiency and decreased friction, which will lead to lower costs and a better overall experience for all stakeholders.
