NFC's transcription services blend quality transcribing skills with cutting edge document
technologies that will accommodate even the most demanding of clients.
A skilled, self-employed virtual assistant can quickly create professional, high quality,
transcription documents using state of the art client tools. No need to provide technical training,
expensive equipment or valuable office space. Our freelance, independent, local or virtual,
digital or analog transcriptionist professionals have everything it takes to handle your transcribing job.
Here are some examples of the many ways you can use a transcriptionist's virtual assistant services:
-
You need a telephone conversation (e.g., conference call, tele-class) recorded.
Your "transcribing virtual assistant" records the call and transcribes the tape for the participants.
-
You dictate letters and memos on a cassette tape, or interview a subject, and mail the cassette
to your virtual assistant transcriber via overnight delivery. The VA transcribes the tape, prints the letters
on your stationery and mails the following day, or emails you a copy of the verbatim interview.
Your time is valuable. Nina Feldman Connection's free Virtual Assistant screening will save you
time and money. You will avoid unnecessary advertising costs, response time lag, and time lost
interviewing and screening unqualified candidates. If you need local transcribing services
check out our California locations in San Francisco, East Bay, and through out Northern California.
Medical transcriptionists, also called medical transcribers and medical stenographers,
listen to dictated recordings made by physicians and other healthcare professionals and
transcribe them into medical reports, correspondence, and other administrative material.
They generally listen to recordings on a special headset, using a foot pedal to pause the
recording when necessary, and key the text into a personal computer or word processor,
editing as necessary for grammar and clarity. The documents they produce include discharge
summaries, history and physical examination reports, operating room reports, consultation
reports, autopsy reports, diagnostic imaging studies, and referral letters. Medical
transcriptionists return transcribed documents to the dictator for review and signature,
or correction. These documents eventually become part of patients' permanent files.
To understand and accurately transcribe dictated reports into a format that is clear and
comprehensible for the reader, medical transcriptionists must understand medical terminology,
anatomy and physiology, diagnostic procedures, and treatment. They also must be able to translate
medical jargon and abbreviations into their expanded forms. To help identify terms appropriately,
transcriptionists refer to standard medical reference materials-both printed and electronic; some
of these are available over the Internet. Medical transcriptionists must comply with specific
standards that apply to the style of medical records, in addition to the legal and ethical
requirements involved with keeping patient records confidential.
Experienced transcriptionists spot mistakes or inconsistencies in a medical report and check
back with the dictator to correct the information. Their ability to understand and correctly
transcribe patient assessments and treatments reduces the chance of patients receiving ineffective
or even harmful treatments and ensures high quality patient care.
Currently, most healthcare providers transmit dictation to medical transcriptionists using either
digital or analog dictating equipment. With the emergence of the Internet, some transcriptionists
receive dictation over the Internet and are able to quickly return transcribed documents to clients
for approval. As confidentiality concerns are resolved, this practice will become more prevalent.
Another emerging trend is the implementation of speech recognition technology, which electronically
translates sound into text and creates drafts of reports. Reports are then formatted; edited for
mistakes in translation, punctuation, or grammar; and checked for consistency and possible medical
errors. Transcriptionists working in specialized areas with more standard terminology, such as
radiology or pathology, are more likely to encounter speech recognition technology. However,
use of speech recognition technology will become more widespread as the technology becomes more
sophisticated.
