Medical transcription

At Wixtin Ltd we have many professional medical transcriptionists that have many years of experience and will do an exceptional work at transcribing your medical recordings. We understand that the medical field requires utmost attention and accuracy, and this shows in the quality of our medical transcription services.

Medical transcription is the manual conversion of voice reports into text, which doctors and other healthcare professionals dictate. Usually, healthcare professionals read out medical documents into voice files and send them to the hospital's transcription team or outsource them to professional transcription companies to obtain a text file from them. The hospital's electronic health record (EHR) or electronic medical record (EMR) system receives these digitally-transcribed medical reports. Hence, we can easily see that medical transcription services have extensive use in medicine.

 

What is medical transcription?

Professionals such as doctors, nurses, and therapists often dictate patient reports into a handheld recorder. There are several types of reports, and each must be typed in a standard format to prevent misinterpretation of data and medical mistakes.
Here are some examples of the types of medical reports to be transcribed by our professional medical transcriptionists:

  • Letters to patients
  • Letters to other medical professionals, such as record requests and referrals
  • Medical histories and physical reports
  • Patient visit summaries
  • Consultations
