Medical
Transcription As A Career.Submitted By: Mila Sidman.Medical
transcription is one of those careers where you either hate
it or love it. I have been a medical transcriptionist for
a long time and still love what I do. I enjoy the continuous
learning, take pride in my work and think it’s absolutely
fantastic.
what will it be like for you?If you’re thinking about
a career in medical transcription here are a few things to
consider:Do you enjoy
working from home on your own?Whether you work
outside the home or from home, this is one career where you
will have to be self disciplined. You are left to produce
your own work and will not have someone looking over your
shoulder.Do you have a good grasp of the English language?You
will need to have a good understanding of English and grammar.
Grammar you could learn through a class, but if you have trouble
understanding spoken English then perhaps you could take a
class to improve your language skills before starting your
MT course.Will I be able to sit in front of a computer for
extended periods of time?Medical transcription is all about
typing. You will sit in front of a computer for hours at a
time transcribing documents.Do I need a social career?Medical
transcription isn’t the most social career out there.
You will network and meet other MTs but while you’re
working you will be on your own concentrating on your work,
and you can’t have a conversation while transcribing.So
whether you work from home or in an office, you really won’t
spend a lot of time involved with others while working.
Am I good researcher or willing to learn?As an MT, you will
really develop your researching skills and will become very
resourceful! You will need to look up medications and terms
you don’t understand or can’t clearly make out.
This will take some thinking and resourcefulness on your part.Will
I be able to apply common sense?You will find yourself in
many situations as an MT where you really need to think outside
the box.
