CHART TRANSCRIPTION SERVICES: An Overview
An MTIA survey indicates that almost half of all transcription workload is now being placed with some form of outsourcing.
The
percentage continues to climb, as the outsourced transcription industry
is growing by an annual rate of 10% to 15%. This alternative is often
more attractive than finding, retaining and paying trained and
certified transcriptionists.
Outsourcing
of transcription services overseas has encountered numerous quality
problems, suggesting that a large number of offshore transcriptionists
have language barriers or do not have adequate training or
transcription/medical education. Many overseas transcriptionists are
not familiar with ever changing federal regulations
Our
Fast Chart services division specializes in medical transcription and
prides itself upon meeting each client’s increasing documentation
demands to support reimbursement, risk management, and the need for
more data.
