Medical records are downloaded, transcribed and sent back OVERNIGHT for your convenience during the next working day. This ultimately ensures timely delivery of services to your clients.

4.Attention to detail yielding more accuracy

Providers are required to adhere to global standards by adopting the HIPAA Medical Transcription Process. Providers often go above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that prescribed quality levels and turn-around times are adhered to. Reputed providers follow through their service with stringent QUALITY ASSURANCE procedures (multi-level) which involve:

•  Editing
• Thorough proofreading
• Reviewing of final records

This ensures that all documents you receive are nothing but top-notch quality.

Outsourcing medical transcription services helps you to substantially cut down on time, effort and resources spent on managing, maintaining and training in-house medical transcriptionists from on your pay-roll. Since medical transcription is a core part of all functionalities and departments, it means that a typical health-care center needs to spend a sizeable amount of its budget in basic administrative responsibilities. The good news today is that these same services can be outsourced from a competent provider who links UK, USA and Canada to a brilliant work-force in Philippines. Simply put, when you outsource, you forget about: the tiring pay-roll processing assignments, the headache of hiring new transcriptionists and the hassle of overseeing administrative responsibilities.

6.Instant workforce for peak times

Seasonal fluctuations in the number of medical transcriptionists are a common feature in the US, UK and Canadian job markets.

These fluctuations, as you’ll agree, may affect your hospitals workflow and productivity. Well, outsourcing medical transcription services from an off-shore team ensures you cater to this seasonal rise in demand without compromising on the quality of service or interfering with your workflows.

7.Easy access to crucial files

Transcribed medical reports are kept in a huge database (in massive servers) so they are accessible to the client for as long as 2 years.

This further makes it easy to print and send multiple reports to different destinations via the internet. With such flexibility, one is sure to enhance patient confidentiality at all levels of communication.
