| |
| Medical transcriptionists perform an important
service to physicians and patients alike by transcribing
dictated information from the physician about the patient's
medical report to document the patient's medical care and
condition. |
| |
| Documentation is extremely important for
insurance purposes and for the fact that the patient's medical
record is a legal document that might be used in a legal inquiry
if some irregularity should arise. Obviously, in either case, it
would be necessary to have an accurate report about the medical
history of the patient. |
| |
| Medical transcriptionists listen to dictated
recordings made by physicians and other health care
professionals and transcribe them into medical reports,
correspondence, and other administrative material. The documents
they produce include discharge summaries, history and physical
examination reports, operative reports, consultation reports,
autopsy reports, diagnostic imaging studies, progress notes, and
referral letters. Medical transcriptionists return transcribed
documents to the physicians or other health care professionals
who dictated them for review and signature, or correction.
Ultimately, these documents eventually become part of patient's
permanent files |
